SAN FRANCISCO, CA, Feb 25, 2013 (MARKETWIRE via COMTEX) –
Zephyr Real Estate, San Francisco’s largest independent real estate
firm, achieved a sales volume of $1.5 billion in 2012, making it the
City’s number one real estate brand. Zephyr has consistently been in
the forefront in sales volume, technological innovation, and service
to the community.

Luxury sales now comprise almost one-third of total transactions,
which is up from 15 percent from a mere two years ago. Zephyr is also
home to some of the most productive agents in San Francisco with the
top 10 agents averaging more than $35 million in sales.

The San Francisco Association of REALTORS has mapped the City into 10
districts. Zephyr’s dominance in the market place as a whole is also
reflected in the majority of these 10 Realtor-defined areas,
including the area west of Twin Peaks (District 4) that includes West
Portal. In that area alone Zephyr’s market share is over 25 percent
higher than the closest competing brand.

“This is great news but I am not surprised that the team here has
achieved this watermark,” commented Randall Kostick, Chief Operating
Officer of Zephyr. “It takes commitment and dedication and that’s
exactly what we have.”
