• 300+ apartment, mixed-use & commercial buildings sold
• 40+ probate, trust & partition sales
• Court-appointed Partition Referee

Allison Chapleau has spent more than two decades selling San Francisco apartment buildings, mixed-use property, and homes held in estates, and she brings that depth to every court-supervised sale. Since 2002 she has closed over 300 multi-unit and commercial transactions, and MLS records place her as the city's leading listing agent for two-to-four-unit buildings from 2021 through 2025 and for buildings of five or more units from 2021 through 2026.

Her estate work spans more than 40 probate, trust, and partition sales across all ten San Francisco districts, from Noe Valley and the Mission to the Richmond and the Sunset. A San Francisco court has appointed her to serve as Partition Referee, a role that demands impartial handling of disputed co-owners under strict procedural oversight. Executors and administrators rely on her for court-ready valuations, pricing structured to hold up under confirmation scrutiny, buyer qualification for deposits, and a two-phase marketing plan designed to draw overbids at the confirmation hearing.

She coordinates directly with estate attorneys and fiduciaries so escrow timelines track the court calendar and each decision is documented for filing. A University of San Francisco business graduate with a minor in finance, she works out of Compass's Van Ness Avenue office.
