2026 List Last Updated

Finding the best realtor in Burlingame isn't as simple as sorting by star rating - Burlingame's market spans everything from million-dollar-plus bungalows in Lyon-Hoag to sprawling vintage estates in Easton Addition, and it rewards agents who know which streets fall inside the top-rated school boundaries and which HOAs are about to raise dues. The list below ranks the top 20 real estate agents in Burlingame currently working the market, ordered by how many verified client reviews they've earned and how consistently they close. Every profile links straight back to its original review source, so you can read the unedited feedback yourself before you ever pick up the phone.

How We Built This List

Nobody on this page paid for a spot. Agents are placed using three factors we could actually verify:

📋

Verified Transaction History

Every agent on this list has a documented track record of closed sales in and around Burlingame - not just active listings or a polished bio. We looked at actual completed transactions, not promises.

Real Client Reviews

Ranking order is driven by the volume and rating of authentic, platform-verified client reviews - real buyers and sellers describing their own experience, not testimonials handpicked by the agent.

📍

Years of Local Market Specialization

We weighted how long each agent has actively specialized in the Burlingame market specifically, since a decade spent learning Easton Addition's lot restrictions or the Mills Estate resale cycle is worth more than years spent anywhere else on the Peninsula.

This list is refreshed annually to reflect new reviews, new sales activity, and agents who've entered or left the Burlingame market. Current version: 2026.

Burlingame Neighborhoods We Cover

Burlingame earned its "City of Trees" nickname for a reason - its neighborhoods range from tree-canopied vintage estate streets to walkable pockets minutes from Caltrain. The agents ranked above work across all of them.

Downtown Burlingame

The city's walkable core along Burlingame Avenue and Broadway, lined with shops, restaurants, and a Caltrain stop that makes car-free commuting realistic.

Easton Addition

Burlingame's most prestigious address, known for vintage early-1900s estates on generous lots and a strong pull for families.

Ray Park

A tight-knit, family-favorite pocket of ranch-style homes close to Lincoln Elementary and Ray Park itself.

Mills Estate

A hillside collection of mid-century modern homes prized for panoramic Bay views and architectural character.

Lyon-Hoag

One of Burlingame's more attainable neighborhoods, popular for its proximity to major highways and Caltrain.

Burlingame Park

A blend of suburban calm and urban convenience just outside downtown, an easy walk to shopping and dining.

Burlingame, California Real Estate Market at a Glance

A quick read on conditions before you start interviewing agents:

~$2.9M Median Sale Price

Burlingame homes have traded around this level through mid-2026, among the higher price points on the Peninsula.

~10-40 days Median Days on Market

Timing varies significantly by season and price point - well-priced homes in Easton Addition and Ray Park still move quickly, while higher-end listings can sit longer.

~105% Sale-to-List Ratio

Homes are generally selling above asking price, a sign of Burlingame's continued seller's-market conditions.

~25-35 Active Listings

Inventory citywide as of mid-2026 - tight enough that buyers benefit from an agent who hears about listings before they hit the portals.

Market figures are approximate, sourced from public MLS-aggregated data, and will shift throughout the year - ask any agent on this list for a current comparative market analysis specific to your street.

Where Burlingame Sits on the Peninsula

Burlingame sits on the San Francisco Peninsula along the Bay, about 17 miles south of San Francisco and directly north of San Mateo, bordering Hillsborough, Millbrae, and San Francisco International Airport.

Hiring a Realtor in Burlingame, California: FAQs

Who is the best realtor in Burlingame right now?

Based on verified transaction history, real client reviews, and years of Burlingame-specific market experience, the top-ranked agent for 2026 is Jenn Gilson of Golden Gate Sotheby's International Realty, followed by the 19 other agents listed on this page - together making up the top real estate agents in Burlingame. Rankings are reviewed annually to reflect new sales activity and new reviews.

How much does it cost to hire a realtor in Burlingame, CA?

Most Burlingame agents work on a commission basis, typically negotiated between 2% and 3% per side of the transaction. Since 2024's industry-wide changes to buyer-agent compensation rules, buyers now negotiate their agent's fee directly rather than assuming it's covered automatically - worth clarifying with any agent before signing a buyer's agreement.

Should I use a local Burlingame agent instead of a Bay Area-wide brokerage?

It depends on the transaction, but local specialization tends to matter most in Burlingame because of how differently its neighborhoods perform - Easton Addition's estate-lot market behaves nothing like Lyon-Hoag's more attainable price points. An agent who works Burlingame specifically, rather than the wider Peninsula, is more likely to know pricing nuances block by block.

What's the difference between a buyer's agent and a listing agent in Burlingame?

A listing agent represents the seller - pricing the home, marketing it, and negotiating the best possible sale price. A buyer's agent represents the purchaser, helping them find the right property and negotiate favorable terms. Many Burlingame agents, including several ranked on this page, work both sides depending on the client.

Which Burlingame neighborhoods are in the highest demand?

Easton Addition consistently draws the most competition for its vintage estates and school access, followed by Ray Park for its family-friendly, close-knit feel and Mills Estate for hillside views. Lyon-Hoag and Burlingame Park offer relatively more attainable entry points at a comparatively lower price.

How do I verify a realtor's reviews before hiring them in Burlingame?

Every agent ranked on this page links directly to their original Zillow profile, where you can read unedited client reviews straight from the source rather than a testimonial the agent selected themselves. It's worth cross-checking an agent's review count against their actual closed-transaction history, not just their star rating.

How often is this Burlingame realtor ranking updated?

This list is refreshed annually. The current version reflects 2026 data - transaction history, review counts, and market activity are all re-checked each year, and agents are re-ranked or replaced accordingly.
