Joske Thompson

Joske made the arduous process of buying a home easy. He actually SAVED me money! Joske has his finger on the pulse of the SF market. Creative, attentive and very professional. I highly recommend Joske as your agent.

For some people, buying and selling real estate can be a stressful proposition. Yet for more than 15 years, I’ve been blessed to have the opportunity to both buy and sell property in San Francisco with Joske Thompson as my realtor of choice.
Joske is simply amazing. He knows the San Francisco market like the back of his hand, having lived in the City for almost three decades. He’s been at his profession during the ups and downs, the highs and the lows — of the San Francisco market. He’s a masterful negotiator, always working on behalf of his client, rather than other realtors who perhaps might have a self-​interest in simply getting deal ‘done’.
Over the years, I’ve come to trust Joske with what amounts to millions of dollars and never once, have I regretted a decision he’s advocated or a transaction he’s advised. He’s as honest as the day is long and above all else — he’s a genuinely delightful person.
Looking for a real estate agent with whom you can gain competitive advantage in today’s crazy real estate market in San Francisco? Call Joske…

Joske was referred to my girlfriend and I by a long-​time family friend who works in real estate in Berkeley. She recommended Joske as her go-​to agent for San Francisco as he has been in the business for over 25 years and knows the market better than anyone she knows. Joske was truly amazing and I would HIGHLY recommend him to anyone looking to buy a home in San Francisco, whether they are a first-​time buyer, or an experienced investor.
Some of the things that made Joske stand out to me, having dealt with my share of real estate agents in the past, were his impeccable communication skills and patience throughout the buying process. Joske would always respond to our calls or emails immediately (even late on weekends), and never pushed us towards a decision we weren’t comfortable with. Joske also patiently explained many things that were new to us such as earthquake retrofitting regulations and condominium HOA policies.
Joske showed us about 10 houses in total before we decided that the very first one we saw was the one we liked the best. As the listing agent had not yet set a date to hear offers, Joske carefully explained our options and walked us through what we could expect at each step. Less than 2 weeks later we closed on the house of our dreams. To this day I still reach out to Joske for recommendations on everything from general contractors to neighborhood restaurants.
I can’t recommend Joske more highly and will absolutely use him again should we decide to move into a bigger home down the road.
