The six magic words. Mia can speak them and she makes it happen. I first met Mia as I was visiting the Bay Area to plan for my relocation from the Southwest where I had lived for twenty years. I was immediately impressed by her understanding of the real estate market and knowledge of what different neighborhoods around Oakland and San Francisco have to offer. Right away Mia understood what I was looking for, not just housing-wise, but also the everyday-life experience that I was seeking. And most of all, her kindness. She was thoughtful and patient to explain how to approach our search and present our case to sellers, their agents and lenders. I was quite naïve about how competitive this market truly is. Mia gained my trust right away. I credit Mia for formulating a winning strategy for my house search. Given how quickly things move around here, we had to be as effective as possible to avoid nerve-breaking bidding wars and secure the approval of a lender as my relocation was fast approaching. To date, I may not fully understand and appreciate how much time Mia and her team members spent on researching the market on my behalf, screening properties of potential interest, and networking with other agents. What I can say is that Mia’s persistence kept things moving forward. She was in constant communication with me, which was a great relief given that I was then living out-of-state. She guided me step by step throughout this multifaceted process that, at times, can feel like an intractable labyrinth. Our very first offer was successful! On a Monday morning, I remember receiving a call from the lender explaining that the final approval for my loan was being challenged. This was the day before flying to San Francisco to close on the property’s purchase. You can imagine my state of panic. I immediately reached out to Mia and, in a brief phone discussion between two appointments with her clients, she told me: “I will take care of it.” The six magic words. And she delivered. What she had to do, whom she had to convince still eludes me. It is only then that I took full measure of the unique value of her expertise and connections. A few years ago, as I was starting to think about this relocation, the prospect of one day living in the Bay Area that I so cherish was distant and intangible. A dream that seemed unreachable. Mia made something happen that is even more precious than acquiring a house. She turned one of my dearest dreams into reality. I wish that happens to you and full-heartedly recommend Mia and her team for your real estate needs.

I cannot recommend Mia Takami highly enough as a realtor. She and her team are absolutely fantastic. She is very knowledgeable about the SF market and is well-connected in the community to other realtors. This gives her an advantage in getting her buyers access to exclusive listings before they even hit MLS! In addition, Mia maintains connections with lenders in multiple banks so she can help get you some competitive lending rates. Mia knows about which banks have done lending before for certain buildings and also if there is pending litigation on any buildings you are interested in. You'll also get a lot of resources from Mia as your agent, whether you're a buyer or a seller. She creates quarterly market reports, checklists for buying and selling, and guides on various neighborhoods in SF and what they're known for. Mia's process for buyers is very streamlined. As a first time home buyer, I was nervous about the process, but Mia answered all of my questions and made sure to present me as a competitive buyer. She offered to have me interview her first before I decided to work with her, which instilled a lot of confidence. She then asked me what I was looking for and started immediately adding properties of interest to a custom client portal she maintained for me during my search. Next, she put me in touch with some lending agent contacts of hers at various banks so that I could get pre-underwritten quickly. My search lasted for about 2 months and during that time, Mia tirelessly kept recommending properties and her operations team scheduled tours to view the properties I was most interested in. When I was ready to place an offer on a property I toured, Mia helped me get my offer accepted in 2 rounds of negotiation. She and her operations team were with me all the way to close of escrow, answering any questions I had, and keeping my lending institution, title company, and listing agent's team all up to date. If you want to buy or sell in the SF market, Mia is the first person you should call!

We sold our Beacon condo in Mission Bay with Mia and her team, and can confidently recommend her 100%! Mia sold our condo 3 TIMES, and was patient, empathetic, understanding and knowledgeable through many life changes over those 3 years. Mia’s team was impressive from beginning to end. They were quick to answer all questions and seamlessly kept us updated throughout the entire selling process. -The first time Mia sold our home, we were still living in the unit. Once it went into contract, we had to back out due to our baby being born and not being ready to move out of the unit. Despite the circumstances, Mia was flexible and we appreciated her sincerity and understanding. -The 2nd time she sold our home was in 2020 during the peak of the covid pandemic. The buyer backed out due to all the uncertainty surrounding the market but Mia was able to negotiate to recover the deposit from the buyer! -The third time (is a charm!!), we had moved out of the unit to our new home in Carmel Valley. Mia has an amazing in house designer that staged our home at a special low rate - in which we were able to achieve the highest and best result that we were happy with!! The colors, textures, layering of items and design were all top notch and we got many compliments on the staging. Throughout the process, we felt we were a part of every step of listing our home for sale. Mia’s preferred vendors (cleaner, painter, handyman, stager. etc) all delivered at a competitive price. Her team managed all vendor coordination, and we were very happy with the quality and time efficiency of the prepping process. We highly recommend Mia to anyone looking for a talented real estate team in the Bay Area!! We are very grateful to have walked through this huge milestone of our lives with her.

Mia and her team are the best. She helped me sell my condo in SF in the worst market since 2008, all with SB800 litigation making the process even more complicated. I was honestly a little skeptical how her reviews could be so uniformly high and glowing, but now I know why. From the start, Mia was incredibly responsive and answered all my initial questions with patience and professionalism that put me at ease much more so than the half-dozen other agents I interviewed. She didn’t back down at all from the extra work that such a complex listing would entail, and not only foresaw potential buyer issues that I hadn’t even though of such as the lack of parking, but even laid out plans on how to mitigate them. Once we had signed the listing agreement, Mia went to work and more than backed up her talk. She had the condo repainted, staged, photographed, and listing live within two weeks. Honestly, I was skeptical when she laid out her timeline expectations because they were so much faster than other agents, but she actually exceeded them. We signed May 23, and she had the listing live on June 4. The staging and photos were incredible, and the 3D tour/photos really showed off the unique layout and size of the condo. Mia sent me weekly updates and kept me fully informed throughout the selling process. She was proactive in introducing buyers to lenders that would handle SB800 condos and never let off the gas in marketing the condo like crazy for five months. I really appreciate the work Mia and her team put in for this listing and they more than earned their commission. If you are looking for a buyer or listing agent, put Mia on your list of agents to interview. I bet you will see and hear the difference compared with other agents immediately, just as I did.

Mia represented us as buyer when we purchased a multifamily property in Russian Hill. She was fabulous! We are from Southern California, and we are not very familiar with the San Francisco market. Mia showed us properties in different parts of San Francisco, and introduced us to areas we didn't consider. We were doing a 1031 exchange, so we had a limited period of time to find a property. We eventually found one in the most beautiful area of San Francisco. We were not able to see the property at the first viewing opportunity, so Mia took videos for us and gave us her analysis, and we trusted her so much that we decided to make an offer without actually seeing the property in person. She guided us through the offer process to position our offer most favorably to seller because there was a lot of interest. She was very strategic in her approach, and our offer was accepted. Throughout the escrow process, Mia was always on top of everything - with the disclosures, inspection, documentation, repairs, the 1031 facilitator, tenant estoppels, property manager, staying within timeline, deadlines, etc. At our final inspection prior to closing, all the tenants seemed to know Mia, and one of them commented to me what a pleasure it was to work with Mia. The seller's agent also expressed to me about how professional Mia was to work with. We are very happy with the property, and we really thank Mia for all of her efforts to make sure we get the property. We highly recommend her!

Mia is far and away the best real estate agent I have worked with for a number of reasons. First and foremost, Mia is a true professional. She is punctual, detail orientated and works extremely hard. She is tuned to the market and will get you the best deal possible. The reason we proactively called Mia in the first place was because any open house we came across in SOMA/Mission Bay, she was the agent! Clearly we knew early on she was the hardest working agent in the business/our area and we wanted to work with her! Mia always puts the best interests of her clients first. In my opinion, this is the most important quality for a real estate agent and Mia lives it. Combine this with the fact that Mia is fun, sociable, passionate about her work and puts people at ease. This helps her get the best result for her clients and makes you want to do business with her. My wife and I cannot recommend Mia highly enough. Earlier this year, she helped us sell our condo in SOMA. Through her hard work, she managed to get us the exact price we were looking for! Most impressively, when unexpected personal issues arose we were forced to stop the sale. Mia worked even harder to make sure we could accomplish this, even though it meant she would not get a commission. She truly cared about us as clients and valued our long term relationship over any immediate commission. If you want to find a great property in SF or want to sell, call Mia and you won't be disappointed!

We had overall very positive experience working with Mia and her team as our seller agent. Despite unfortunately hitting the low market during our sell (listed in mid 2022), Mia and team had shown their professionalism and experience during the 9 months listing period and managed to attract limited buyers on the market to our property, resulting in a successful sale with a price that we could accept. Here are a few highlights of their service: - Extreme familiarity with the condo market in SoMa/Mission Bay area. As a result, they took care of most of the detailed processes specific to the condo apartment such as parking and HoA, order and replacement of appliances, etc. - Frequency, transparency and responsiveness in communication. We received weekly updates about the open house results of that week. Whenever there was a need to make a decision, Mia was always available to discuss via video calls upon our short notice and provide helpful advice. - Be willing to share opinions on important decisions based on her knowledge and market predictions, but always respected and never added pressure to our final decisions if they were different from hers. Thank you, Mia and the team. It has been a great journey with you!

We recently worked with Mia Takami and her team to sell our San Francisco condo and we couldn't be more pleased with our experience. Throughout the entire process Mia was extremely professional, competent, diligent, and a pleasure to work with. In our initial meeting she impressed us with her knowledge of the local real estate market and of our specific unit, and was generous in sharing her thoughts about what we needed to do to prepare our unit for sale and even gave us a good idea of the likely sale price (which turned out to be very accurate). Mia and her team were very efficient in getting our place staged, photographed, and on the market. Her suggested listing price was spot on, she did a great job with open houses and with soliciting and responding to offers, and in the end got us a great price after only 3 weeks on the market. Mia was also tenacious in ensuring a quick closing, putting constant pressure on the buyers, the buyers' bank, and the title company. As an added bonus, Mia has a very pleasant personality and is just an absolute pleasure to work with. Overall just can't recommend Mia strongly enough if you are considering buying or selling a home in San Francisco.

Mia and her phenomenal team got the job done! We were unsure about selling our SF condo in a challenging pandemic market, but so happy we did because of Mia's exceptional service and results. Having moved out of the city, it was important that we list with somebody who would make the process nearly effortless for us while providing timely results-Mia delivered on every detail. After receiving high interest in the unit, we accepted an offer for the full asking price in 2 weeks. Mia is well networked in with other agents and has terrific connections from skillful handymen to elegant staging design firms. Mia's expertise of the market is undeniable and both she and her knowledgeable team are super lovely to work with-very professional and prompt in all of our correspondences and going above and beyond to be sure the entire transaction went smoothly. Mia genuinely addressed every one of our concerns while not wasting a single minute in getting us to market and into contract. We're so delighted we reached out to Mia, please do the same and discover for yourself what it means to work with a truly experienced and caring agent!

I was looking to purchase a condominium in San Francisco and thoroughly searched for an agent who had extensive knowledge of the condo market in the city and Mia fit the bill. We signed the agent contract on Jan 5th and in less than 3 months I was able to move in. Mia is a great listener. She only showed me condos that potentially fit my specific needs that I discussed with her. With every condo tour, she showed up with paper and pen and jotted down all of the pertinent information that was discussed and knew all the right questions to ask. Once I found the condo that was perfect for me, she was quick to review all the HOA paperwork and knew right away the price point that it was going to sell at. We made an offer on the condo which ended up having 3 other offers. Thanks to Mia’s knowledge and hard work, my offer was accepted and near the price she predicted! The San Francisco housing market is not an amateur's game. Picking a very well-seasoned, sharp, and quick-thinking real estate agent is the KEY. I am so grateful to Mia and her team. Thank you, Mia!

If you're buying or selling a home in the Greater Bay Area, look no further than Takami Real Estate Group. I feel so lucky that I was introduced to Mia, because I don't think another realtor would have been able to get the deal done as swiftly, but still done very well, the way Mia did. I was selling my condo after 12 years of ownership, and I was on a quick timeline. The market has been deteriorating in 2023, so I wanted to sell quickly to get the most out of my investment. Mia and her team worked so fast to get all the needed documentation from me, and get my condo prepped for the market - all while I was living in LA. When Mia did find a buyer, she was so great about making sure that everyone was getting the best deal - the seller too! She is such a talented business woman, she is someone you definitely want on your team. I wish she was down in LA, because I would totally do more transactions with her - maybe if I ever bought a place in SF again :) thank you Mia, and team for everything!

Mia has helped us buy 2 apts now. She is extremely knowledgable of the market, knows everyone (and every real estate agent in SF seems to know her and has good things to say about her), prompt, and always full of positive energy. We met her at one of her open houses. Even though the apartment was not right for us, Mia's enthusiasm and sharp business sense made an impression. When we found our first dream home in Russian Hill, we asked Mia to represent us and she did an amazing job negotiating the right price and closing early. She stayed on top of the seller, the bank, the appraiser, etc., etc. We felt totally taken care of. When we needed a big place for WFH and a baby, Mia ran around the Bay Area with us to find the best option. Then she did another amazing job coordinating a smooth closing in the middle of the pandemic. I would totally recommend Mia and work with her again in a heartbeat.

Mia was the agent representing me to sell my condo at Arterra building in San Francisco. From the first moment we got in contact, I noticed her professionalism and enthusiasm to sell my condo. Mia was extremely responsive during the whole process. She took the time to explain the details of the contract and what type of services she would provide to me as a seller. Mia is a hands on agent, she paid attention to all the details of the building and the condo and helped me find the right sale price. Mia was able to sell my condo in less than a week, thanks to her great networking capacity and my condo sold above asking price. Mia and her team kept me fully informed and guided me through the whole process and it was completely painless. I strongly recommend Mia Takami and her whole team to represent you for any real estate transaction you may have.

Open House Realtor: "Are you currently working with a Realtor now?" Me: Yes, Mia Takami is my Realtor. Open House Realtor: Oh yes I have heard of her (know of her, etc). She is really good. You know you are in great hands when you hear this time and time again at the open houses Mia would send me to check out on days she had her own to do!! And those Realtors were right. Mia is the best. She truly cares about you and is as hard working as them come. She knows the SF market better than anyone (no exageration), introduced me to an equally as amazing lender to secure a loan, gave great advice, walks you through everything, and would even video chat me at places she would check out for me when I was out work. She will find you your dream home, get the best price available, and she really cares.

Mia Takami and her real estate team made our home sale seamless and efficient! From our first meeting to the final closing, Mia guided us through every detail patiently and professionally. Her years of experience gave us the confidence to choose her and her team to sell our home. Mia’s relationships with staging people, title companies, contractors, and other agents certainly made a positive impact on the success of the quick sale. Her attention to detail is impressive along with her work ethic. No questions are silly, and she will hold your hand through the entire process whether you are selling or buying! I have bought and sold 11 homes in San Franciso and without question put Mia Takami and her Real Estate Group our number one agent. She is highly recommended!

Working with Mia and her rockstar talented team was such an amazing experience, where should I start? I was introduced to Mia by a close friend of mine who was adamant on Mia's expertise, skill set, and process of working with special real estate in San Francisco. Our unit located at Vida was being put up for sale during a very interesting time. We had it listed with another group for some seven months during the middle of the Pandemic before I met Mia and her amazing crew! My wife and I were wounded animals at the time--Mia came in with a plan, a process, and told us to trust her. With her advice, the unit was transformed by her amazing and talented designer and we were able to get into escrow within SEVEN(!) days! Imagine that! 10/10 experience!

Five stars and counting! Mia knows the market and submarkets well. She knows the stats of the major buildings in San Francisco and surrounding areas. After meeting with many superstar agents, I decided to go with Mia to sell my San Francisco penthouse. Mia and her team did everything-- painting, staging, photography, marketing, etc. and sold the listing at a record price. I also purchased two properties with Mia around the same time. I recommended a friend to list with Mia and sold the property in record time and record price. I highly recommend Mia and her team, whether you are buying or selling. She and her team works hard for you...

Mia Takami and her team represented us in selling our rental property in SF. We just closed last week - the entire process took place during a very "strange" and "different" of the covid-19 pandemic. From the beginning, Mia showed professionalism, competency and responsiveness to our inquiries. She and her team always responded to us swiftly, even in the evenings or on the weekends. The vendors that she works with also delivered. During the process, Mia also has a way to deliver her insights in a very respectful manner that kept us calm during this whole process. Definitely would highly recommend Mia to represent property deals in SF.

Very courteous, efficient and professional. I highly recommend this team for your Real Estate needs. I was referred to Mia by an out of area agent, and started with skepticism. Mia put me at ease on our first call. She addressed all of my questions promptly and availed herself to me on each and every circumstance. As a bonus, she is very well connected and brings a wealth of support in all areas of need to make the entire experience easy and expeditious!

We're very satisfied about the selling price even though the market is going down rapidly. Thank you so much! This remarkable achievement belongs to you and your team. I couldn’t be more grateful for your hard work and dedication for months. It's a memorable experience working with you and we will never forget that. I will definitely recommend you to my friends and family. Looking to work with you next time. Wish you all the best.

Mia & her team helped selling our condo in San Francisco. They managed the repairs and dealt with the HOA which was a huge help to us. Her team stayed on top of things during the initial month of preparing the unit to go on the market. Unfortunately the unit took a bit longer to sell than we had hoped for but finally after reducing the price we received an offer which we accepted. Thanks to Mia and her hardworking team.

Mia was our selling agent and helped us prepare, list, and close the sale of our SF condo all within 30 days! She has an incredibly deep understanding of the real estate market in the Bay Area, and in San Francisco, in particular. Throughout the selling process, Mia was transparent and highly communicative. My wife and I always felt that we were in good hands. We look forward to working with Mia again in the future!

Mia and her team worked diligently and professionally in the sale of our condo. They hosted multiple open houses. When the offer came in, the team was on top of every detail. They screened potential buyers well so we were not burdened with interactions that were not likely to succeed. They gave excellent advice every stage of the way. You would be in good hands with this outstanding team. M. Richard Goldberg, MD

Tracy on Mia’s team has been such a wonderful agent to work with! She’s professional, responsive and respectful of my time and priorities. She has a great understanding of the housing market in the Bay Area through research. She also genuinely cares about her clients and has helped me a lot with making decisions in where to buy my house and important factors to consider. I would highly recommend Tracy!

We have known Mia for 8 years now. She was the seller agent when we got our first home and we knew she was awesome! We wanted to sell our condo after living there for 5 years and she and her team was very helpful in the whole process. She guided us throughout and would have next steps ready given our busy schedules. I would totally recommend her and would work with her for any future property sales.

Mia has been wonderful to work with! She is very knowledgeable about SOMA real estate market, and happens to be spot on once it comes to evaluating your sale price and potential timeline of transaction! Also, it was very impressive how she coordinated between all parties involved to make sure there is no delays.I would definitely recommend working with her whether you are buying or selling!

Mia helped us to sell our SF condo at the peak of pandemics in 2021. Condo was sold after 5 days on the market close to our asking price. The main value that Mia and her team provided was in handling the entire transaction end-to-end without any glitches in communication, logistics and any other aspect of service.... Extremely professional and efficient!

Mia's team is very professional, they helped me with many stuffs while I was not in town. And I was living in the unit while we were selling it, her team was very helpful to coordinate with my schedule, and did a very good job keeping my unit clean while showing. I would sincerely recommend her to my friends in Bay area.

Mia has been so nice to work with throughout the home-hunting in the super competitive market of San Francisco. I loved that she is both supportive of our wishes but also realistic and practical. She knows the SF area so well, and has great insights of the market. She is so dedicated in making things happen.

I have worked with Mia to purchase a condo in Mission Bay San Francisco. Mia and her team know the San Francisco market very well. She is well connected to other realtors so we got lots of insight information on the housing market. We are happy about the process and would love to recommend Mia to others.

My partner and I highly recommend Mia and her team. It was a pleasure working with them and we have closed on an apartment in Bernal Heights. Mia specifically, and all of her team were very responsive. They gave us very good guidance and seemed to be well known by all other agents we met at open houses.

Mia and the team helped us sell our condo in China Basin last year. We have worked with many realtors in the past and Mia and her team are the best. The team is increasingly professional and always on top of everything. We highly recommended Mia and the team and we would definitely use them again.

Selecting Mia and her team to sell my condo in San Francisco was a perfect choice. Each step of the way, Mia was on top of everything. The entire process went very smoothly and we were very happy with the final price. Highly recommend Mia and team to anyone looking for an agent.

Fantastic team with extensive knowledge of bay area. Tracy Zhou was extremely helpfull going over all the plus and minus of each buildind and explaining all the fun places to eat and enjoy. I highly recommend her if you are looking to rent, buy or sell.

Mia is fantastic and helped us navigate through our first home purchase. She had all the insights and helped us make data driven decisions. She established trust very quickly and was always on our side. We would def work with her again.

Mia is a great realtor. She helped me rent out my place in San Francisco and then sell it eventually. Throughout she worked hard on my behalf getting me the best deal possible. I'll definitely refer my friends to her in the future.

Mia and her team provided us with excellent service from the start to closing. My schedule is extremely busy but they made the process efficient and seamless! I highly recommend Takami Real Estate Group!

Mia and her team were fantastic. Comprehensive set of services, know great contractors for things like painting and touch ups before a sale, and pleasant to work with. Would definitely recommend.

Tracy has been an extremely helpful resource. She is smart, understands the local market, and can hustle for her clients. I strongly recommend working with her.

Mia Takami and Team are effective, efficient, responsive, caring and extremely knowledgable. It was a pleasure working with them.

Mia is the best and will only work with her moving forward.

Great service. Professional staff

Absolutely the BEST
