Joske has been a licensed real estate Broker since 1983. His extensive experience in both residential and commercial sales over the last 40 years has made him a coveted real estate resource. His instinctual ability to identify market directions and new market trends within the San Francisco property market was honed in his background when he co-founded the real estate division at an Australian Merchant Bank.
His global reach as a Certified International Property Specialist is complemented by local expertise in San Francisco, where he is consistently ranked as a top producing agent and is Chair of the Global Business Council at the San Francisco Association of Realtors®. Facilitating international business development with the most representative organization of the real estate industry in the world, Joske is President of the San Francisco chapter of FIABCI, an elite network represented in 65 countries with members from all professions of the real estate sector.
His extensive knowledge of international property and investment practices, paired with his robust worldwide network, affords Joske the competitive edge to deliver successful strategies for his global clientele.
Joske works equally well with property sellers and those looking to buy property in San Francisco, primarily because he never loses sight of their goals. He has established a solid reputation for adeptly representing luxury real estate buyers, sellers, and developers from across the globe. He has sold properties in exclusive territories in San Francisco, Marin County, Sonoma County, Napa Valley, and Lake Tahoe.
During his time away from the office, Joske enjoys the arts. He has served on the boards of several organizations, including SECA at SFMOMA, SF Art & Film for Teenagers, The Joe Goode Performance Group, and Capp Street Project/California College of the Arts.
We let our clients do the talking
"Joske is an outstanding professional and just a great person overall. He has deep expertise in the San Francisco market and has an excellent reputation in the industry, which helped a lot in getting our offer on a house accepted. Seriously, everyone knows him and he knows everyone. He was also super nice, completely honest and trustworthy, and very candid about what is and isn't possible. Also, he is completely dedicated, even to the smaller clients like us who were "only" purchasing a tiny SF apartment. I send him all my friends, and if I ever sell my place I will go back to him in a heartbeat."
M. Gallois & A. Baudrimont
"Joske will save you money, time, and anxiety. Real estate in SF is stressful and tricky. I worked with Joske to buy a home in San Francisco. Joske stuck with me while we put in multiple bids and was always kind, patient, and incredibly responsive. Joske is an established deal maker in San Francisco real estate, which you’ll find out if you work with him because every other Realtor® in town knows him and will tell you what a great agent you have."
Brittany H.
"We worked with Joske on more than one transaction and he provided us with the perfect balance of patience, assertiveness, persistence, and advice. Each transaction went smoothly and he was there with us every step of the way. We have recommended him to others in the past and will continue to recommend him. In addition, we will also work with him again if another transaction comes up."
Julie V. & Jonathan S.
"Joske helped us sell our family's home in Marin. It was understandably an emotional ordeal and Joske guided us and handled all the details impeccably. In addition, he helped us prepare the house for sale so beautifully that we definitely received a higher sale price. We would recommend Joske to anyone hoping to work with a highly professional Realtor® with a great heart."

Assessing Our Strategy and Monitoring the Market
The seller process at a glance
Advantages of working with a cooperating Broker
Working with a professional buyer’s agent can provide a host of benefits you may not have considered. In partnership with the buyer’s agent, I can show your home in its best light to a widened pool of qualified buyers and ensure a more efficient contract-to-close process for everyone involved.
Increased Exposure For Your Listing
More eyes means more interest. A buyer’s agent can help get your listing in front of interested buyers they are currently representing, which maximizes your home’s exposure in a competitive market.
More Qualified Buyers
The guidance and expertise of a buyer agent helps increase the likelihood that you are moving forward with qualified and vetted buyers who are informed and ready to transact.
Seamless Contract-to-Close
Buyer agents provide guidance, counseling, and support to buyers throughout the entire contract-to-close process to reduce complexities. This means I will have the opportunity to work with a dedicated agent on the deal’s complexities to ensure an objective approach and increase the likelihood of a seamless transaction.
Reduce Liability & Exposure
Having professional representation more readily ensures that buyer completes their investigations to their true satisfaction, thoroughly review and understand seller disclosures, and complete each required step along the way which usually results in a well-informed buyer and lessens buyer’s remorse
Based on our studies we believe sellers who use Compass Concierge are nearly 2x as likely to sell their home in 60 days.*

The power of photography
Beautiful photography is one of the most powerful tools for selling your home. Compass uses bestin-class photographers to show your home in its best light, make a positive first impression, and attract more buyers.
Pricing your property to maximize buyer activity
Timing of Buyer Activity
A property receives the most traffic within the first few weeks of hitting the market. It is important to get the price right in order to gain the attention of interested buyers and maximize your home's position in the market.
Attracting Buyers Using Competitive Pricing
Using competitive analysis, market research, and Compass’ suite of AI-powered tools, we recommend a price for your property to generate the most activity and offers early on before buyers move on to newer listings.
Sell your home, keep your privacy
Private Exclusives with Compass
A private exclusive listing is an off-market home that can be shared by a Compass agent directly with their colleagues and their buyers. Property details aren’t disseminated widely and won’t appear on public home search websites. This allows you to control what information is shared about you and your home while still getting exposure to top agents at Compass.
Discretion
Privacy is the ultimate commodity and the decision to sell your home is a personal one.
Flexibility
Decide when to share details about your home, including price, more broadly on your own timing.
Quality
Retain exposure to Compass agents, including premium placement on our agent facing platform.
Value
Get the best offer by testing the market privately to gather key insights without your listing getting stale.
A multi-channel marketing approach, designed to stand out
From brochures and postcards to social media and emails, our marketing collateral effectively communicates your property’s story and attracts more potential buyers.
SOCIAL MEDIA
EMAIL BLAST
Reach more prospective buyers with intelligent digital advert
By leveraging Compass’ digital advertising tools and partnerships across social media and advertising throughout your listing process, we can generate demand to sell your home faster, and we meet potential buyers where they are, online.
Proprietary Targeting Optimized Performance
Compass helps generate buyer interest by using proprietary data to serve ads to Facebook and Instagram users.
Compass tracks and measures the results of every campaign which allows for continued optimization.
INSTAGRAM IMAGE AD
FACEBOOK VIDEO AD
Engaging open houses
Whether it be in-person or a dynamic virtual tour, open houses are one of the most important ways buyers connect with your home.

Assessing our strategy and monitoring the market
Using proprietary tools such as Collections and Insights, we keep you informed of market conditions and traffic to your property.
Insights Collections
Collections allows us to have a collaborative conversation on your home selling process with instant updates on comparable listings and access to insider knowledge previously only available to the agent community.
Insights is a detailed, custom dashboard that allows us to assess the impact of our online marketing campaigns in real time. By capturing this data, we are able to further target our ads to buyers most interested in your home.
