Hi, I'm Michelle!

Realtor. Advocate. Youth Mentor. Bay Area 

Connector.


Hi, I’m Michelle Thomas — your friendly, local Realtor who believes everyone deserves a shot at homeownership, no matter their budget.


I became a real estate agent with one goal in mind: to help other parents like me build generational wealth through homeownership. I know what it’s like to juggle life, work, and raising a family — and I also know the power of planting roots in a home you can truly call your own.


Whether you’re buying your first starter condo or shopping for a million-dollar listing, I’ve got you covered. From Emeryville to Oakland to San Francisco, I help clients across all price points, including those navigating Below Market Rate (BMR) programs. Because everyone’s dream is valid — and I’m here to help you achieve it.

 

Outside of real estate, I’m a dedicated community advocate and youth mentor. I’ve volunteered with empowerment programs, supported local families, and always lead with heart. That same commitment carries into every transaction — no matter the price tag.


So whether you’re ready to buy, thinking about selling, or just need honest guidance, I’d love to connect. Let’s turn your goals into your next address 


— and build a legacy worth passing down.
