SAN FRANCISCO, CA, Jan 12, 2012 (MARKETWIRE via COMTEX) –
Danielle Lazier has been named Zephyr Real Estate’s Top Producer of
2011. Having sold 60 properties during the year, Lazier ranks among
the top one-half of one percent of real estate agents in all of San
Francisco.

Lazier is a long-time blogger and, in fact, has been blogging since
the concept first emerged. Her SFHotlist.com blog is widely read and
respected, and is often used as a source in industry news. Her crisp
and savvy insights are not just about properties but also about the
distinctive lifestyle of San Francisco residents. As she says, “It’s
not just about square footage; it’s about the life you want while
living in that square footage.”

Reared in both New Jersey and Texas, Lazier has lived in San
Francisco since 1999 and can’t imagine living anywhere else. With a
degree from Wesleyan University (CT) and a dedication to continuing
studies in real estate, management, business, marketing and strategic
planning, she is always seeking to innovate, improve and grow. Lazier
is quick to point out the value of team work and is proud of her
team’s knowledge of marketing, technology, properties, experience and
drive. She is certain that the future of the real estate industry
will rely largely on team efforts.

Lazier is a Certified Residential Specialist (CRS). This is the
highest designation awarded to sales associates in residential real
estate. The CRS designation recognizes professional accomplishments
in both experience and education. Currently, only one in every 25
licensees is a Certified Residential Specialist.

To quote recent satisfied clients, Roxanne and Neil: “Danielle
represented us on both sides of our recent property transactions and
we couldn’t be happier with her high level of service. She’s tuned
into the macro factors affecting the residential space and really has
her finger on the pulse of local dynamics. Most important, Danielle
applied her broad knowledge to our unique needs; she was able to
gauge our desires and concerns and then create a plan to satisfy
them. She guided us through some very choppy waters (both personal
anxieties and a shifting credit/finance market) with patience and
tact. She’s direct, efficient, and driven by solutions. For us,
Danielle solidified her reputation as a trusted advisor. P.S. Her
marketing prowess is impressive — our Mission condo brought in 8
offers and sold for more than 13% over list price.”

“Danielle is a shining testimony to how dedication, organization,
preparation and intuitive skills relate directly to success,”
commented Randall Kostick, Zephyr’s Chief Operating Officer. “We are
delighted to share her success.”

Lazier works from Zephyr’s Noe Valley office at 4040 24th Street. She
is a member in good standing in the San Francisco Association,
California Association and National Association of REALTORS(R). She
may be reached at 415.695.8805 x196 or danielle@sfhotlist.com.
