White Tiger Fast Track

“After several frustrating years of trying to navigate the confusing and daunting condo conversion process in San Francisco, we had reached a point where we had made little progress. Luckily, we are able to find Jen and White Tiger Condo Conversion, who helped us successfully complete the condo conversion process. After trying to do it ourselves, I firmly believe that the condo conversion cannot be a do-it-yourself operation.

You need help from a professional who has a deep understanding of the condo conversion process. We didn't have that at the start, and it cost us a lot of time and money. Jen has an expert team of specialists in the legal, construction, and planning fields that efficiently handle all the details of the process. I can honestly say that we would still be trying to finish the condo conversion process if we had not found Jen and White Tiger Condo Conversion. Now we happily have condos and are incredibly pleased with the increased value of our properties.

After evaluating the high cost and low supply of housing in San Francisco, we realized that our best path to ownership was purchasing a two-unit building and setting up a TIC, with a plan to condo convert at a later date.”

"I feel confident that Jen will be a valuable resource for her future clients. 2-4 unit condominium conversions represent one of the most cost-effective and low-risk opportunities for creating additional value in San Francisco residential real estate.”

“Dealing with Jen was a night and day change from navigating the murky, labyrinth city processes ourselves. White Tiger made condoization achievable and greatly helped us increase our property value and net worth.

I bought a two-unit tenancy-in-common building with a close friend who also had a strong background in Do-It-Yourself home repair. As we’re both capable government attorneys, we thought navigating the San Francisco condoization process would be feasible to handle ourselves.

After a few experiences with the relevant city departments (easily the most frustrating experience I’ve had dealing with a government organization I’ve ever had, and that is what I do for a living!), we sought out White Tiger, whom we’d heard about from our real estate agent. Jen screened and supervised contractors as well as getting the city paperwork moving.”

“Help individuals reach their goals and serve as a resource and mentor. Plays a direct role in the professional development of a colleague within her industry.”

"Tenancy in common is a popular way for two or more individuals to purchase a share of a property, offering them equal access to the property.

If you’re planning on buying real estate with a friend, relative, or business partner, you may consider a tenancy in common (TIC) agreement. You can use this agreement for personal or commercial properties.”

"Different forms of tenure, going beyond a binary choice between rental and homeownership, can offer more options to city residents struggling to afford a house.

They include build-to-rent, shared ownership, and shared equity ownership.”

“Homeownership creates stability of tenure and is one of the major ways that Americans build wealth and financial security.

Given the limited land supply in San Francisco, condominium conversion is viewed as an easier way to expand homeownership opportunities than through new construction.”
