About Suzie Koide

Growing up, I was always on the go, from kickball and competitive track to poetry writing, and crafting. Over the years, not much has changed. I’m still on the go: river rafting, hot air ballooning, and bungee jumping (only once!). My zest isn’t just for the outdoors. I bring the same verve and determination to my real estate practice. Clients tell me I am full of energy and enthusiasm and there are great reasons why:

• I believe education, homeownership, and real estate investments are gateways to financial security and freedom. I help clients clarify their vision for the home of their dreams and empower them to make sound decisions. Working together, we create a plan to achieve their real estate goals. I love to make dreams come true!
• I have a real knack for home transformations. My talented team of vetted professionals can turn an ordinary home into an extraordinary one. Resourceful and creative, I find solutions for situations most realtors won’t touch. Making the most of your investment fuels me, and our collaboration has rewards.
• I understand real estate is more than a transaction. A successful sale or purchase can build security, confidence, and sustainability. For me, this is soulful work.

I’ve been a top-producing agent for ten years now, focused on Marin and the East Bay, two areas I love and know well. Clients can count on my market expertise, persistence, and diligent follow-through. For those looking outside of the Bay Area, I have an extensive realtor referral network.

In my prior life, I was successful in the wine business. Working with high-end wineries and vintners all across Northern California, I came to appreciate the incredible quality of life we have here. Fine wines, delicious fresh foods, glorious greenery, abundant trails and a huge variety of wonderful properties abound.

For years Marin County was home. Now my husband and I savor life in the hills above Point Richmond. We hike Mt. Tam, sail our boat, “Encore” on the Bay, and mountain bike around Lake Tahoe. Enjoying the outdoors as we do, we also share a passion for the environment that’s why I started a grass-roots campaign to pick up littered trash. Every week, we’re out cleaning up parks, beaches, and roads, leading by example.

I’m a member of the San Rafael Chamber of Commerce, as well as a member of Bay Area Wealth Builders, a real estate investment club. When time allows, I also volunteer with the Richmond Yacht Club, West Point Inn, and the Golden Gate Center for Spirituality. And it goes without saying that one of my favorite pastimes is to enjoy a glass of wine with good friends over a delicious meal. If it sounds like we’re a good fit, I’d be delighted to get your call.
