We had the pleasure of working with Nick two times now, once as our buyers agent and just recently as our sellers agent. Nick is an outstanding agent and really shines through his expertise of real estate- laws, protocols, assessing and managing risk, and the market. Nick is very transparent and kept us in the loop each step of the way. He is also diligent with his time and made everything happen in a short window. Overall, Nick is our go to agent for all real estate needs and we couldn't recommend him more!

Nick was great to work with.

I recently sold my home with Nick Johnson, and was extremely happy with how it went. He made some excellent suggestions about what was needed to get the house ready for the sale as well as the timing the sale. With his help, everything went very smoothly and after just a couple of weeks, I had multiple excellent offers. There are always stresses with selling a house, but Nick helped make it as easy as possible, and I was very happy with the result.

We have worked with Nick Johnson on the sale of two homes in San Francisco. Each time he was totally professional. He made suggestions on how to show the properties and how to list them, even helping with getting them cleaned and ready for showing. He always listens to our concerns and had our best interests at heart. After the first sale I knew we would come back to him the next time I sold property. We were pleased both times. We got the amount we wanted and the terms we wanted. I highly recommend him to anyone looking to buy or sell a home in the area. You will get the best deal either way.

I highly recommend Coldwell Banker's Nick Johnson as a real estate agent! He recently handled the sale of my home, and he made the process very efficient and comfortable. I had moved out of the area before my home went on the market, and he handled everything, from hauling away unwanted items, which he kindly encouraged me to leave behind, to sprucing up the home for two very well-attended open houses. His marketing strategy was very effective, and shortly after the second open house, it was time to evaluate several good offers. Beyond his professional expertise, Nick is a very courteous, optimistic, and caring person! In my experience with him, I couldn't have asked for more!

I have not met any broker more trustworthy and knowledgeable than Nick Johnson.

I am a commercial real estate developer. When I need assistance in selling or purchasing a residential property in the Bay Area I have not met any broker more trustworthy and knowledgeable than Nick Johnson. When it comes to selling our home Nick offered numerous valuable suggestions to improve and show the home so we maximized our sales value. When it comes to purchasing a home Nick is a determined pit bull to get to the bottom of the truth of the disclosures presented by the seller. If you want tireless, faithful and intelligent representation whether you are buying or selling you will be very happy with Nick Johnson. Nick truly puts people before profits.

We are lucky and blessed that Nick came into our lives.

We are lucky and blessed that Nick came into our lives. My sister, who was ill, lived alone for 15 years, and was unable to maintain our San Francisco family home, died . The house was a mess and had zero curb appeal in or out. Nick's team cleaned and painted, refinished the floors and put a fresh face on it. He knew the market and sold the house for top dollar. He patiently and professionally guided us step-by-step through the entire process. One example illustrates just how far he went above and beyond-- the house was full of old furniture. Nick knew that the local waste company, Recology , offered a free yearly pickup. The neighbors told us they saw him personally dragging couches and other rubbish to the curb in his business clothing. A house that Standard Homes sold new in 1956 for $16,500 and that we worried might might have to be leveled, grossed $1.65 million because of Nick's expertise, know-how and hard work.

Nick was our real estate agent when we needed to sell my late father’s home. From the very beginning he was open and honest about what needed to be done to make the house marketable and he did an incredible amount of work toward that end. I live out of state and did not stay at my dad’s house or in the area throughout the process. Nick kept us informed with texting, emails and calls. He never made decisions without our input and he was on top of all that needed to be done: getting contractors, supervising the work and making further suggestions about how to make the house/property a desirable place. He helped solve problems that arose and did an amazing amount of personal labor getting rid of decades worth of stuff that could not be sold and he followed our wishes regarding recycling and donating. Nick as incredibly easy to work with and Nick is extremely trustworthy. I would highly recommend him.

I had an amazing experience hiring Mr. Nick Johnson to sell our estate in Millbrae, Ca. Mr. Johnson is a very experienced realtor with a very professional demeanor. He did not only list our estate for sale, but furthermore, he coordinated the update and staging of our estate to prepare it for sale and to optimize our profit. His strategy, tenacity and diligent support throughout the preparations as well as the listing and open houses resulted in a seamless sale contract that led to the expeditious sale of our estate house. In less than two weeks, we had our estate house sold. His masterful expertise, quick responsiveness, excellent negotiating skills and very impressive market knowledge account for his success as one of the best realtors. I would highly recommend Mr. Johnson as a realtor, and as a property manager.

We were originally referred to Nick when we were looking to purchase a home in 2011. Nick was extremely professional and truly guided us through the home buying process. Because of this positive experience, when were in the process of relocating out of the Bay Area we contacted Nick to list and sell our house. Nick responded almost immediately and we scheduled a time to discuss the overall timing and marketing plan. Nick worked directly with various vendors (hauling, landscaping, painting, cleaning, staging, plumbing, etc.). This allowed us to focus on other relocation requirements. We have worked with other real estate agents as both buyers and sellers and hold Nick in the highest regard. Nick is an expert in the San Francisco and Peninsula real estate market.

A great resource for selling your home!

In Feb of 2020 my wife and I decided to sell our home in the Outer Sunset District in SF. We contacted Nick Johnson, a realtor with Coldwell banker. Mr Johnson suggested some changes to prepare our home for sale, and even had a floor guy come in and put down new flooring in the kitchen at his own expense! Wow. What a motivated seller!



And then covid hit. Our plans to sell fell through as the whole city went into isolation mode. So we gave up on selling “for the time being” -- a period which turned out to be a little over 2 years.



When covid had let up a bit and people knew better how to deal with it we turned once again to Nick. He again helped us prepare the house for sale, made some suggestions for presentation, and started working on putting together a pre-listing showing of the house. Inflation was starting to kick in and the market was looking iffy. We weren’t sure we could get our target price but Nick said, “Let’s give it a try!” So we did.



To make a long story short, Nick Johnson sold our house for more than our target price – during the pandemic, during the time of uncertain markets. Did I mention he managed to sell before we listed?



Nick Johnson is a gentleman and a nice guy. He is also an amazingly good selling agent! I would recommend him to anyone.



Thank you Nick, our retirement will be easier thanks to your work!

Nick Johnson assisted in the sale of my multi-unit building in Pacifica where I utilized a 1031 tax-deferred exchange to purchase a single family home in Millbrae CA. Nick was very professional and handled the entire process with ease. As soon as escrow closed on my Millbrae replacement property Nick assisted in leasing the property as well. I plan to keep using Nick for my next purchase.

Nick was the best agent I could have ever come across

“I never thought at my age that I would be selling my parents home and buying my very 1st home at 70 years young and in a new city. I think Nick was the best agent I could have ever come across. From the beginning he was very patient and explained the entire process to me, answering all my questions and concerns. Never misleading, always honest and detailed. He never skipped a beat and worked tirelessly, day-and-night. He handled everything from repairs, showings and most important, negotiations! He even took me house shopping and stood by my side through the laughs and tears because we all know how stressful buying and selling can be. He reassured me everything would work out great and it did. Nick is literally the sweetest man I know. I consider him like my son. In today's market Nick is the man you want. He will get the deal done for you. He should be called Nick the Great, he is in my eyes. I will recommend Nick to all my relatives, friends and neighbors.”
