I'm Allie Pembleton. In the top 1.5% (Real Trends) of all agents in the Bay Area, California, and United States, I consistently achieve well over the average price per square foot for my sellers, often reaching the highest price in the neighborhood. Despite today’s challenging market, many of my buyers get into the first home they bid on, and sellers delight in the great returns.

An artist, born to artist parents, I was raised surrounded by visual culture. Traveling refined and strengthened my sensibility, after having lived and traveled in nearly every country in North and Central America, Europe, and Africa, I came back home to the Bay Area where I got my MFA and furthered my expertise.

A sixth sense is now an essential part of my real estate practice. I have an innate sensitivity to how design, spatial relationships, and color affect the feeling of a place. While many agents use neutral palettes, I approach a home differently. Specific art pieces, wallpapers, tile choices and accent walls create cohesion between indoors and outdoors, elevate a space, or complete restful spots where the mind and eye can relax.

I want each house I list to be the “it” house that everyone flocks to, talks about, and bids on. I love the negotiation process and excel at putting sellers in a position where I can negotiate strongly to get them the highest possible price in todays market. Helping clients find their dream homes where they feel comfortable, happy, and secure is my passion.

When not busy at work, I love to have adventures with my daughter Ameliese. We’ve hiked in Switzerland, gone swimming in glacial lakes, spent days meandering through the Venice Biennale experiencing art, and slept in under-earth huts in Sweden. I'm always delighted to hang out at home with my husband Terry, sharing the magic of California with my family.
