I'm Diane Kneis. I want my clients to win.

Real estate isn’t just my career—it’s my calling. I am relentlessly dedicated to my clients, serving as their advocate, strategist, and trusted advisor in one of the most significant financial and personal decisions of their lives. I care deeply about every home I sell and every client I represent. This allows me to provide the level of personalized service, attention to detail, and strategic execution that leads to real results.

Your Goals. My Relentless Focus.

I don’t just list homes—I position them to win in the market. I take the time to understand each property, what makes it special, and how to craft a strategy that attracts the right buyers. From meticulously preparing a home for sale to crafting compelling narratives that drive demand, I make sure every detail is handled flawlessly.

For buyers, I am tenacious in the search, proactive in uncovering opportunities, and a fierce negotiator when it counts. I know the market inside and out and leverage my deep relationships to open doors others can’t.

Results That Speak for Themselves

With over $200 million in real estate transactions closed—including single-property sales up to $19 million—I have a proven track record of success. But what matters most to me isn’t just the numbers; it’s the experience my clients have and the results I deliver. That’s why my business is built on referrals from clients who trust me to guide them, advocate for them, and ultimately, help them win.

Uncompromising Standards. Personalized Service.

I keep my client roster small so I can be fully present, fully engaged, and fully invested in every transaction. You’ll never be passed off to an assistant or feel like just another listing. I personally handle every negotiation, every showing, and every detail with the same level of care I would for my own home.

I thrive in high-stakes environments where precision, strategy, and execution make all the difference. My background, deep local expertise, and ability to see opportunities where others don’t allow me to create exceptional outcomes for my clients—whether they’re selling a luxury estate, navigating a complex transaction, or searching for their perfect home.

Bay Area Native. Deep Local Expertise.

I was born and raised in the Bay Area, and my husband and I have built our life here, raising our two daughters in Redwood City and Woodside. I know these neighborhoods not just as an agent, but as a local—spending time in Menlo Park’s Allied Arts District, enjoying sporting events, gardening, and taking in the energy of San Francisco.
