PROFESSIONAL Caroline Kahn Werboff has been selling residential real estate for more than thirty years. She began her career in 1973 in Contra Costa County, where she worked in real estate sales and also in new home development as a sales manager and assistant to the director of marketing. She moved to San Francisco and to Hill & Company in 1983.

A seasoned expert, Caroline has weathered a variety of market conditions. “During the past 30+ years, I’ve experienced five recessions and the effects they have had on the real estate market,” says Caroline. “Each market climate has been unique and challenging. It is important to be able to modify sales and marketing techniques and to remain competitive through continuing education and experience. To manage any market condition requires the skill to expertly handle listings and counsel buyers.”

Caroline is among the most experienced of San Francisco agents, and was the top salesperson at Hill & Company in 1987, 1993, 2002 and 2004. In 2005 and 2006, she was in the top three. In all other years she has been one of the top five realtors at Hill & Company.

Caroline’s reputation is sterling and she is renowned for her attention to detail and powerful negotiation skills. People and community matter to Caroline. “One characteristic has remained constant throughout my career: this is a service business and my success is directly related to the ongoing attention and thoughtfulness I provide to my clients.

“Marketing, negotiating, and financial skills must be precise, fair and highly competitive in a sophisticated atmosphere such as San Francisco. I take pride in representing the fine people with whom I have become associated over the years. Their business and personal matters are held with total confidence and respect.”

High ethical standards, strict adherence to confidentiality and careful protection of clients' privacy has made Caroline a trusted agent and sought-after advisor. Her strong relationships with clients and colleagues alike often smooth the paths through complex transactions.
