You could say Joseph Suarez was born to do this. His great grandfather, F.D. "Dick" Minucciani, and his grandfather, Ron Brovelli, sold homes in South City and up and down the Peninsula, and Joseph grew up hearing about the streets they worked. Born and raised in Burlingame, he earned his license at 19 and, ten years on, is still serving the only community he has ever called home, now from the Coldwell Banker office on Chapin Avenue.

What Joseph loves most about the work is guiding people through one of the most important transactions of their lives. A problem solver by nature, he enjoys the day to day challenges of the job as much as he enjoys being detail oriented and attentive to his clients’ needs. Six years in customer service before real estate taught him that relationships are built on trust, so he keeps asking questions until he fully understands what his clients are looking for, and keeps them informed at every step. Clients describe him as the trusted friend in their corner who makes a complicated process feel smooth and efficient.

The results speak for themselves. Joseph was recognized in the top 4% of Coldwell Banker agents in 2025. He has closed dozens of homes across the Peninsula, from first homes to multimillion dollar sales, and has represented investors, developers and family trusts alike. His clients have left dozens of five-star reviews on Google and Yelp, and more than a million people have watched his Instagram videos, where he explains the local market in plain language.

Joseph works in Burlingame, Hillsborough, San Mateo, Foster City, Redwood City, San Carlos, Belmont, Millbrae and Menlo Park. His commitment to Burlingame goes beyond real estate: he serves as Vice President of the Burlingame Lions Club and as a Director on the Downtown Burlingame Improvement District Board. When he is not working, you will find him editing videos, hiking, or out at a Bay Area cleanup project.
