Meet Lynn Wilson Roberts

With more than $550 million in lifetime sales and recognition as a Top Agent by RealTrends Verified from 2018–2025, Lynn Wilson Roberts has built a reputation for helping Bay Area homeowners maximize the value of one of their most important investments. She combines decades of experience in real estate, marketing, investing, and business ownership with an unwavering commitment to her clients’ success.

Before entering residential real estate, Lynn served as Vice President of Marketing for a technology company, owned and operated a boutique hotel, and invested in commercial and residential real estate. Those experiences shaped the way she approaches every transaction today—with equal parts strategic thinking, financial analysis, and creative marketing.

Lynn is particularly known for helping sellers identify opportunities to increase their home’s value before it reaches the market. Whether recommending thoughtful improvements, coordinating trusted contractors, or developing a customized marketing strategy, she approaches every listing with one goal: helping clients achieve the strongest possible result while making the process feel seamless and well supported.

Her expertise extends beyond traditional home sales. Lynn has guided numerous trustees and families through trust and estate sales, providing the careful communication, organization, and fiduciary-minded approach these transactions require. She also enjoys helping buyers recognize a home’s potential, drawing on years of experience in renovation, design, and real estate investment.

A longtime Los Altos resident, Lynn graduated from Los Altos High School and Cal Berkeley. Go Bears! She brings deep local knowledge of the Peninsula communities she serves, including Palo Alto, Los Altos, Los Altos Hills, Menlo Park, Portola Valley, Mountain View, and surrounding neighborhoods. Clients consistently describe her as thoughtful, knowledgeable, creative, and fiercely dedicated to achieving the best possible outcome.

For Lynn, real estate has always been about more than buying and selling homes. It’s about helping people navigate life’s biggest transitions with confidence, clarity, and exceptional care.
