About Matt Fuller - Your San Francisco Real Estate Guide

Matt Fuller — Your San Francisco Real Estate Guide

98% San Francisco, 100% Obsessed

A successful Apple employee decided to trade tech for real estate in 2002 — building a flexible career that could support the family he was building. That's Matt Fuller's origin story, and spoiler alert, it's working out pretty well. Over two decades later, he's become one of San Francisco's most trusted real estate professionals, and she's become a young adult.

The Numbers

As a Broker Associate with Compass, Matt continues to:

  • Facilitate hundreds of millions in real estate deals (who's counting?)
  • Concentrate 98% of his business in San Francisco (why leave Heaven?)
  • Thrive for 17 years at one brokerage, co-founded and ran his own for 7 years (commitment issues? Never heard of them)

His specialties include getting complex things done:

  • Buyer representation (finding unicorns in today's market)
  • Listing services (making your home the star of the show)
  • Relocation consulting (it starts with the perfect neighborhood)
  • Expert witness testimony (I'm here for the truth-telling, right hand raised)
  • The complicated deals others won't touch: probate court, bankruptcy court, stock co-ops with interviews, buildings with complications, buyers without title insurance, clients who need privacy

Overachiever Alert: Industry Leadership

Matt doesn't just sell houses — he helps shape the entire industry. His leadership rap sheet reads like someone who really, really likes being involved:

San Francisco Association of Realtors:

  • President (2017) — The year he got to sit in the big chair
  • President-Elect (2016) — The understudy year
  • Chief Financial Officer (2015) — Where math meets real estate
  • Board Director — Professional meeting attendee extraordinaire

California Association of Realtors:

  • Director (2016–2020) — Four years of hotel chicken and making things happen
  • Vice-Chair, MLS Policy Committee — I've got strong feelings on this. Inquire within.

Fair Housing Champ

Worked behind the scenes to get the process started that led California Association of Realtors to acknowledge and apologize for their role in writing, promoting, and passing Proposition 14 in 1964 — legislation that enshrined housing discrimination in the state constitution before being ruled unconstitutional. Many others carried the work forward, but someone had to start the conversation. Then made a podcast about it all.

Real Estate. On the Go.

Host of the podcast San Francisco Real Estate with Matt Fuller & Friends, available on all major podcast platforms — real estate insight anywhere, anytime that used to require being trapped in an agent's car during a showing (yes, including the bathroom).

On Camera

When San Francisco real estate hits the news, reporters call Matt. He's been the voice of reason on ABC News 7, KTVU, and KPIX CBS 5 — basically, he's the guy who explains why the market does what it does (and somehow makes it make sense).

Occasionally pops up as a fitness model in national magazines and local campaigns. Clients sometimes send photos when they spot him on mobile fitness trucks around San Francisco.

The Human Side

When he's not orchestrating million-dollar deals or attending very important real estate meetings, Matt can be found:

    • At the gym, on the yoga mat, or training for his next Marathon in Golden Gate Park (staying strong and flexible for negotiations, building endurance for long escrows)
  • With his family (the people who keep him grounded)
  • Spoiling his dogs (because every real estate mogul needs a good canine advisory board)

The Bottom Line

Matt brings two decades of experience, a genuine love for San Francisco, and just enough quirkiness to make the whole process actually enjoyable. Whether you're buying your first condo or selling your dream home, he's the kind of agent who remembers that behind every transaction is a real human with real dreams — and probably some very specific neighborhood coffee shop preferences.

San Francisco real estate is complicated enough. Let's get it done!
