Buying a home in the Bay Area can be quite an adventure! This purchase was to be our primary residence. Marie was supportive at every step of the process. Reflecting back on the overall experience, the most outstanding thing about working with Marie was how value-added she was with her knowledge and insight, while never pressuring us to settle. She wanted us to be absolutely comfortable with our choice. As we looked at different properties and debated pros/cons, Marie had great insight that helped us make our decisions on whether to bid or not - even pointing out things about one house that made us decide not to bid. Her patient and supportive approach did not waver even when we were outbid on the first property and had to start over. When we found the house that we ultimately purchased, Marie was thorough in going through every aspect of the house and property the bid, the close and the financing with us. We recommend Marie to anyone considering a purchase or sale!
