Who should I hire to sell my home in Woodside, CA?
Woodside homes are selling slowly this fall. The RealTrends Woodside market update for October 8, 2026 puts the median time on market at 98 days. Price cuts show up on 30.8% of listings. When homes sit that long, an agent's sales record carries more weight, so we pulled the 2025 numbers behind three names Woodside sellers hear often.

Brad brings about a decade of experience in commercial real estate investment banking. In September 2025 they brokered the $85 million sale of Green Gables, a 74-acre estate, as the San Francisco Chronicle reported. Longtime Woodside owners who sold their estate with the team wrote:
"They were extremely helpful in every aspect of the marketing of our estate."
Michael Warren: acreage, equestrian and off-market sales
Michael Warren lives in Woodside and works from the Compass office on Woodside Road. He holds the RealTrends Verified Top Agent by Volume award. His RealTrends profile lists $114 million across 14 sides in 2025. That places him second among Woodside agents by volume, 91st in California and 253rd in the country. His average sale price came in at $8.14 million.
He was the listing agent for 320 Harcross Road, a 1929 French chateau. It sold at its full asking price of $18.9 million in September 2025. His work centers on the homes that set Woodside apart: acreage, equestrian estates, historic properties and private, off-market sales. He has worked alongside Mary and Brent Gullixson since 2015.

"Michael is also a skilled and creative negotiator with strong relationships in the community which allowed him to drive value in our purchase."
Chris Iverson: hands-on, without a team
Chris Iverson has sold real estate since 2005 and works with Golden Gate Sotheby's International Realty. He works directly with each client instead of handing work to a team. His RealTrends profile credits him with $80.5 million across eight sides in 2025, eighth by volume among Menlo Park agents. He listed 20 Meadow Lane in nearby Portola Valley, which sold for a town record $56 million, the San Francisco Standard reported. He kept that listing private at first. One seller described a family sale in Woodside:
"Chris helped my family sell our mother’s house in Woodside masterfully."
What a RealTrends Verified Ranking Tells a Seller
RealTrends Verified ranks agents and teams by closed sales from the year before. Volume is the total dollar value of those sales. Sides count each transaction an agent handled, buyer or seller side. Average price shows the level of home an agent sells most. In Woodside, a low side count paired with high volume usually points to large estates. City ranks compare an agent only with peers in the town on their profile. The figures above use 2025 sales data, so they won't show deals closed this year.
How to Compare Woodside Listing Agents Before You Sign
- Local track record. Ask how many Woodside listings they closed in the past two years, then check the records on MLSListings.
- Pricing land. Ask how they'd price a home with acreage, barns or trail access when true comps are scarce.
- Private sales. Ask if they'd test the market privately first, and what you give up in exposure.
- Who does the work. Ask who runs your listing day to day: the lead agent or a team member.
- Days on market. Ask for their average days on market in Woodside, and compare it with the town's median of 98.
Sales volume, sides and rankings come from RealTrends Verified profiles based on 2025 sales data, checked October 8, 2026. Sale details come from the San Francisco Chronicle, the San Francisco Standard and agent websites. Client quotes come from the agents' own websites and Compass profiles.
