“Working with Angelina was one of the best decisions I made throughout the home buying process. From day one, she struck the perfect balance between professionalism and genuine personal care. She was knowledgeable, responsive, and always took the time to make sure I understood every step of the process. What impressed me most was how available she was. No matter the time or situation, I always felt like I was her number one client. She responded quickly, stayed ahead of potential issues, and never left me wondering what came next. She was also incredibly aggressive when it mattered most. Whether it was negotiating, coordinating with other parties, or solving last-minute challenges, she did whatever was needed in the moment to keep things moving forward and protect my interests. I would highly recommend her to anyone looking for a real estate agent who is knowledgeable, hardworking, responsive, and genuinely invested in her clients long after the transaction is over.”

Market gauge is calculated using active listings and pending sales from the most recently available reporting period (May 2026 - Jul 2026).
Over the rolling three-month period ending in July 2026, San Rafael home values climbed solidly year over year, with typical home values up more than 12 percent. At the same time, the median list price rose by roughly 12 percent from a year earlier, underscoring how sellers are pricing higher in response to stronger demand.
Looking at activity, sales volume expanded much faster than supply, with homes sold up about 43 percent while new listings fell around 12 percent compared with a year ago. With active listings also down from last year, this imbalance has helped push the share of homes selling above list price to nearly half of all sales and lifted the average sale-to-list ratio to just over 102 percent.
Conditions in the latest rolling period point to a tight seller’s market, as months of supply sits at just 1.7 and the median home spends about 25 days on the market. With more than a third of properties going off market within two weeks and nearly half closing above asking, pricing and timing strategies matter for both sides of the table. Buyers navigating this fast-moving environment and sellers aiming to maximize their returns can both benefit from Agent Pronto’s help in finding an experienced San Rafael real estate agent.

“Working with Jason Hoffman was one of the best decisions we made. He helped us sell our condo and guided us through the purchase of our first home in Moorpark, and we couldn't be happier with the experience. From start to finish, Jason was professional, knowledgeable, and incredibly responsive. He made what could have been a stressful process feel organized and manageable by keeping us informed every step of the way. We always knew what to expect and felt confident because he was looking out for our best interests. Jason's marketing of our condo was exceptional, and his negotiation skills helped us achieve a great result on both the sale of our condo and the purchase of our new home. He was always available to answer our questions, offer honest advice, and make sure every detail was handled. What impressed us most was how much he genuinely cared about us, not just as clients, but as people. We never felt like just another transaction. His dedication, communication, and attention to”
“Lolli is wonderful. Worked with her twice now, and would do so again. She is communcative, knowledgable, kind and hard working. I trusted her to handle almost all aspects of selling my house, as I was living across the country at the time. She organized cleanup, repairs, staging, photos and everything else. Even picked up a package I had accidently sent to the house. Thank you for everything Lolli!”
“Denise was wonderful to work with. She is experienced, knows the market inside and out, and is 100% professional in every way. I was amazed at her organizational skills and her patience. She worked incredibly well with a myriad of inspectors and vendors, while paying strict attention and tracking every detail. And, she’s a lovely person, to boot! I highly recommend working with Denise, I wouldn’t hesitate to hire her again. Thanks, Denise!!”

“Through Agent Pronto I was connected with an agent, Michael Pellegrini, who worked with us to buy a vacation property. I was pleased that the whole process was done in a professional manner.”
“Agent Pronto put us in touch with two knowledgeable, local agents. The agent we worked with was amazing, quickly honed in on what we were looking for, found us an ideal house, and guided us through the purchase process. Two months after first speaking we closed on the perfect place.”
“Efficient and non-intrusive service. They recommended an agent, Craig Ackerman, who got us our dream home after only 3 weeks, 4 house-viewings, and one offer later. We'd gone through 3 ineffective agents over a 4 month period before this, so it was much appreciated!”
