We are thrilled to stay in touch with Sean and team for our next real estate purchases!"

"Rises.co did a tremendous job on short notice in late 2020 to help me find the right condo in the Nob Hill and Polk Gulch area. Rises.co listened to precisely what I was looking for, and all showings set up were potentials. Highly knowledgeable. Never pressuring, but honest about the pros and cons of particular units and locations. Hand-walked s..."

"My wife and I were splitting time between New York and San Francisco. After COVID made its way across the globe, we decided we would stay in SF together until everything has passed. We contacted Sean Mamola with a couple of options we were researching in regards to property locations. We had a conversation regarding the pre-approval/purchase process. Sean kindly set us up with a team that was spectacular. Sean Made sure that every part of the process had a representative that would answer the phone and willingly find solutions and answers to all and any questions. At any time! We were working with international times zones. Sean's willingness to be available during the wee hours of the morning was above and beyond our expectations. We never felt pressured. We laughed and had fun when we could, and then we got down to business and shortly after we started touring, we found our current home (which we miss when we are not there). Sean's ability to know his clients and their needs is what found us home so quickly. He also made sure we got the best value for our home. With luck and persistence, we found Sean Mamola. He created and tailored what could be a very overwhelming process into a stress-free and informative life experience. Thank you, Sean."

"For four years I tried to get a condo through San Francisco's Below Market Rate First-Time Homebuyers program. Four years of hurry-up-and-wait. Four years of disappointment. Then the market started to soften and interests rates dropped and I began to think that maybe it was time to start looking at market-rate condos. Within days Sean and I had ..."

"For four years I tried to get a condo through San Francisco's Below Market Rate First-Time Homebuyers program. Four years of hurry-up-and-wait. Four years of disappointment. Then the market started to soften and interests rates dropped and I began to think that maybe it was time to start looking at market-rate condos. Within days Sean and I had connected and were looking at properties. He was confident that we could find something that I could afford (and more importantly love). The right place came along quickly and Sean knew exactly what would make a winning offer. During the escrow process, he kept me from panicking when the emails and Docusigns became overwhelming. And after closing, he even helped me find a moving company that could fit me into their schedule so I wouldn't have to pay an extra month's rent. I would wholeheartedly recommend Sean Mamola to anyone looking for a Realtor®."

"Sean is absolutely fabulous to work with. Buying a house is not just a logical discussion, it is also a very emotional one. Sean was not only very well informed about the kind of properties that I would like, but he was also able to coach me through the bad days (which all of us will see!) when nothing seems to be working out. He went to a major..."

"Sean is absolutely fabulous to work with. Buying a house is not just a logical discussion, it is also a very emotional one. Sean was not only very well informed about the kind of properties that I would like, but he was also able to coach me through the bad days (which all of us will see!) when nothing seems to be working out. He went to a majority of the open houses with me. He got to know what I like and don't quite quickly and was able to shortlist properties and neighborhoods that I would like proactively. This helped save me a ton of time! Sean and I still joke that when we had parked outside the house I finally did buy and we were crossing the street he had said "let's go look at your future house". And he was right! If you've got Sean in your corner, this is going to be a good experience for you for sure!"

"I only had one week in San Francisco to hopefully find a home before moving from the East Coast. Sean immediately jumped in and supported me every step of the way. His knowledge of the SF housing market is extensive, his work ethic tireless, demeanor welcoming, and he never pressured me into anything. Sean knew I had deadlines, but if the fit wasn’t good, he was quick to offer sage counsel about risks and benefits. Most importantly, Sean genuinely wanted me to find the right place for me. He listened to my situation, and his agenda was my agenda. After an exhaustive search, Sean expertly guided my negotiation and purchase from soup to nuts, and probably landed one of the best condo deals of the year. I’ve worked with many Realtor® and Sean is by far the best."
