Working with Malin has been extremely rewarding. Malin quickly understood what kind of home we were looking for, and used his keen eye to identify options for us. He provided good guidance and counseling regarding what to look for and what to avoid in the complex San Francisco market. He has a good eye to call out risks that we otherwise wouldn't have caught. Thank you, Malin & team!
We chose to work with Malin Kansal to sell our condo based on his reputation for being polite, constructive, and leaving a positive impression on everyone he encounters. Over our five months working closely with him he proved this reputation was well-deserved.
From day one, Malin arrived prepared and committed to prioritizing our needs—a promise he kept throughout. With 25 years in the business, he brings deep knowledge of our area's buildings and histories, which informed his savvy pricing strategy and skilled negotiations. His expertise extended through his entire team, from designers to operations staff. Everyone clearly knew their craft and supported us at every step.
Most importantly, Malin stayed focused on our goals. We developed a staging and sales strategy together, and he found an excellent designer to execute it. He maintained this commitment even when it meant declining a lowball offer and holding additional open houses to achieve our desired outcome.
We highly recommend Malin as a trusted professional and skilled deal maker who guides you through one of life's more challenging experiences. Thank you for everything you've done for us.
Malin has been in the business for 26 years, and this reflects in his team. From the designer to the operations team, the people that we worked with all seem to know what they were doing. We’re currently in Asia and transacting across multiple time zones has been simple and easy. Selling your home can be so stressful but with the right realtor, it can even reinvigorate your hope in the goodness of people. I would highly recommend Malin not only as a neighbor, a friend, but also a trusted person who can get you through one of life‘s more trying challenges. Thanks again, Malin for all you’ve done for us.
Wonderful experience!
Malin made everything look so easy. He had shown some apartments in the past and I knew I could work with him again and trust his advice.
He was always available whenever I had any questions, answered all text messages in minutes and went out of his way to help me, including Closing on the apartment while I was away. I truly appreciate and recommend Malin Kansal without any reservations!

Working with Malin was an absolute pleasure. He’s incredibly easy to work with, grounded, approachable, and genuinely focused on his clients’ goals. His deep knowledge of both the Peninsula and San Francisco real estate markets is clear from the start, and his strong network of local connections gives his clients a real edge.
Malin is also one of the most responsive agents I’ve encountered, thoughtful with his communication and always a step ahead in anticipating what’s needed next. His calm, steady way of handling even the most complex situations makes the process smooth and stress-free. I couldn’t recommend him more highly to anyone buying or selling in the Bay Area.
we needed to sell a house in a depressed area. Malin did a good job in fixing, staging, advertising and bringing the buyer. Deal was completed to our satisfaction.
I could not have ask for a better agent than Malin Kansal. He was extremely patience, knowledgeable, detail oriented, and honest. Navigating through the home buying process was extremely tricky, but Malin made it very manageable. He understood the market trend and pricing extremely well. I truly respect his guidance and advices. He showed me a lot of open houses, and was sincere about the pros and cons of each option. There was never a time when I found myself under pressure to buy something just so he can close a deal. He always put the benefits of his clients first. I will definitely work with Malin again in the future.
I worked with Malin to lease a condo in Rincon Hill four years ago and also renewed the same lease for another two years with him. The two experiences were positive and painless due to the combination of having a wonderful landlord and an experienced broker in Malin. Malin and my landlord were always ready to help before and during the lease -- neither left me high and dry which is not always the case with other brokers and landlords!
I have worked with Malin on two deals and both have been exemplary. I even recommended him to a family friend who had a similar experience. What I like about working with Malin is that he is genuine, honest, and professional. He always responds in a timely manner, is punctual, and offers valuable insights that allow us to make a confident decision. He will go the extra mile to make the deal work and has earned my trust.
