Dean Badessa recently helped me purchase a new home in the Financial District, and the entire experience was exceptional. Not only is Dean a consummate professional in every aspect of his job, but he is also a delightful, attentive and kind human, which added to the pleasure of doing business together. If you ever have the chance to work with him, jump on the opportunity.

I have bought and sold homes as an individual for more than 50 years. In that time, my dealings with Dean Badessa were unique because of his experience, his commitment and the way he relates to his client. I sold my condo in record time (less than 2 months) at the asking price because he strategized the entire transaction flawlessly. I recommend him without reservation.

Dean helped us find the perfect home in San Francisco during H1 of this year (2023). He is knowledgeable, experienced, responsive, and most importantly, genuine. He helped us find the perfect home in a competitive market, and he made the entire process as smooth and stress-free as possible.

Dean is a great listener. He took the time to understand our needs and wants, and he found homes that matched our criteria perfectly. He was also very patient and understanding, as our target properties and locations evolved over the course of the search.

Dean is also a great negotiator. He helped us get a great deal on our home, and he was always looking out for our best interests. Dean has a strong command of assessing what value a particular property should be, and ensures that his clients acquire the right property at the right price.

In addition to helping us purchase the right property, Dean also leveraged his network to refer us to an outstanding agent in Napa Valley, who helped us sell our home quickly, at a competitive market price. This enabled us to establish the timing and budget for our new home search in an efficient manner.

Overall, we highly recommend Dean to anyone looking to buy or sell a property in San Francisco. He is a true professional, and he will go the extra mile to help you find the perfect home.

Dean Badessa was my realtor in a recent purchase of a San Francisco property. As a first time buyer, I felt immediately at ease as soon as Dean agreed to represent me. He is profoundly knowledgeable and he has a naturally calming demeanor. Throughout all my interactions with Dean, not once did I feel pressure to buy a property. On the contrary, he made it clear from the beginning that his purpose was to best represent my interests and mine alone regardless of the outcome. Dean more than fulfilled that intention. With his guidance and expertise, I eventually bought a property at a below market price. I couldn’t be happier. I will always ask Dean to represent me in future real estate transactions.-

Dean just sold two properties in San Francisco for us. He presented us with a plan for both and then helped us stay on track to get the properties ready to market including recommendations for staging, painting, and other presentation details. Dean clearly knows the market for Golden Gateway Commons. The properties sold within a month to qualified buyers with no closing problems. Dean was also very helpful handling minor challenges that arose as we were out of state during the sales process. I would definitely recommend him if you are thinking of selling.

Dean and Tamami delivered. Every vendor Dean recommended for prepping my property for sale was top notch. They met deadlines and had the property ready to go on the market a week ahead of schedule. Dean's vast knowledge of SF Real Estate, dedication, and attention to detail led to multiple offers within 7 days and close of escrow in 19.
