Sejal Binnings

Founding Member

Get to Know Me

Known to her friends and family as “the planner,” Sejal Binnings orchestrates the flow of information involved in every real estate transaction at the Binnings Team. Her objective is to lead clients step by step through the complex, document-intensive process of buying and selling a home. “The idea is to make the process as stress-free as possible for the client, so they never have to ask us what needs to happen next.”

Whether it’s writing offers, completing disclosure packages, or preparing contracts, Sejal makes sure the necessary paperwork is put together correctly, professionally, and on time. Once a home is under contract, she stays in constant communication with the specialists required to close the deal—escrow and title companies, inspectors, lenders, and agents. Her persistence, patience, and consistency are reflected in the Binnings Team’s reputation for excellence in the San Francisco real estate market. “Ours is very much a true partnership,” says Sejal of the team. “It’s really very collaborative.”

Sejal is often an invaluable resource for buyers too, helping them to narrow overwhelming lists of home buying options and to tour prospective neighborhoods while intuitively gathering information that often leads to finding just the right property.

Sejal gets her eye for detail from her background of working in nonprofit fundraising and environmental law. Sejal worked as part of the fundraising team responsible for rebuilding the California Academy of Sciences before becoming one of the Founding Members of Christie's | San Francisco | Marin | Wine Country.

She met her husband, Arrian Binnings, while earning a master’s degree in political management (which Sejal has found to be surprisingly helpful in negotiating transaction terms) from George Washington University. The two lived in Atlanta before moving back to San Francisco. Sejal, who grew up in Los Gatos, loves the Northern California's urban energy, diversity, and natural beauty. In her limited free time, Sejal can be found volunteering at her sons' school, cheering on the Warriors, 49ers, and USC Trojans to victory, or working up a sweat at SoulCycle or hot pilates.

Arrian is my guy and there is no other realtor I would trust with such important/consequential personal transactions. I cannot underscore this point enough...

WHAT OUR CLIENTS SAY

In 2021 I sold my house in San Francisco where I had lived for 30 years. My SF realtor recommended The Binnings Team to help me find a new home in Marin County. During my first meeting with them I was impressed by how well they listened and understood as I explained what factors were important to me in buying a new home. During many months of searching in a difficult buyers' market, they remained confide...

The Binnings Team exceeded all of our expectations. They have the highest professional standards, communication was superb and their judgement proved to be spot on.

WHAT OUR CLIENTS SAY

We worked with Sejal, Arrian, and team both to buy and sell our home in San Francisco. We bought and sold during difficult times (purchased in the crazy competitive 2012-2013 market and sold mid-Pandemic in 2021). They were incredibly patient and supportive throughout both processes! They are helpful in assessing a property's condition and value and are careful to ensure you don't "overspend". And they a...

WHAT OUR CLIENTS SAY

The absolute best. We've worked with Sejal and Arrian across three moments - the purchase of our old home, and the sale of our old home + purchase of our new home. They are not just the smartest when it comes to actionable advice on the market and how to position your sale or offer but they also truly empathize with their clients, sharing thoughts anchored in what matters most to you. We have had a remar...
