Unfamiliar as I am with Marin, I had been to many open houses looking for a home in area I might like. I met Hilary Davis at a house she was showing. Even though the home wasn't a good fit for me, Hilary spent time with me listening to what I did want and recommending some areas for me to check out. In this seller's market, she was the first of nearly two dozen realtors at open houses who really listened to my needs as a buyer rather than pointing out all the features of the house they were selling. Hilary's honesty, down to earth style, extensive knowledge of Marin and its neighborhoods, and her connections in the industry made her an invaluable representative. But perhaps most importantly, she was never trying to sell me on a property. In fact, she would point out potential problems and issues to make sure I'd be happy with a property. When I found a listing that looked perfect, Hilary gave me a thorough video tour the day before the open house, with great descriptions and commentary. After my offer was accepted, she followed through with my bank, the title company, and the selling agent all through the escrow and kept me informed every step of the way. And without me even asking, she even went to the property after the season's first big rain storm to check for any water intrusion. I felt truly represented by her. Now I'm living in my dream home. Thank you, Hilary!
