A Remarkable Achievement by a Remarkable Agent

I’ve been involved in numerous property transactions over the years, so I have high expectations when it comes to real estate professionals. Working with Marilyn Comiskey exceeded every one of those expectations and more. From our very first conversation, it was clear that Marilyn Comiskey understood the market inside and out. She provided a comprehensive, data-driven analysis of my property and its potential, which immediately gave me confidence in her approach. Her strategic marketing plan was tailored specifically to maximize the property’s value, and she executed it flawlessly. Marilyn sold my property for 20% above market value, a remarkable achievement that I wouldn't have thought possible in such a competitive environment. Even more impressive, within just one week of listing, we had four competing offers—a true testament to her ability to generate interest and create urgency in the market. Marilyn always kept me informed and handled every detail with professionalism and precision. Her negotiation skills were exceptional, ensuring that we not only achieved top dollar but also secured the best possible terms. She made the entire transaction seamless and efficient, handling all the complexities with ease. If you want an agent who is not only highly skilled but also results-driven and highly strategic, I wholeheartedly recommend Marilyn.

$150,000 ABOVE the Asking Price!

As a CEO, I know that success is driven by the people you choose to work with—those who bring expertise, strategic vision, and the drive to achieve your goals. That’s exactly what I experienced working with Marilyn Comiskey. From day one, Marilyn stood out with her deep market knowledge, strategic approach, and unwavering commitment to getting the best possible results. She took the time to understand not just the value of my home but also the unique dynamics of the market, positioning the property in a way that maximized its appeal to the right buyers. The results speak for themselves: we sold the home for an impressive $150,000 above the listing price—well beyond what I had anticipated. What impressed me even more was her ability to negotiate a deal with zero buyer credits. In a market where concessions are often expected, Marilyn skillfully navigated the negotiation process to ensure I received top dollar without having to compromise on terms. Throughout the entire process, Marilyn was proactive, communicative, and always kept me informed at every step. Her attention to detail and ability to handle all aspects of the transaction seamlessly made the entire experience stress-free and highly successful. If you’re looking for a real estate agent who not only delivers exceptional results but does so with professionalism and expertise, I can’t recommend Marilyn Comiskey highly enough. She doesn’t just close deals—she makes things happen.

Outstanding Agent!

Marilyn is outstanding in so many ways! She recently represented us in the sale of our home, and we couldn’t be happier with the experience and the end results. Marilyn is a true neighborhood expert and knew exactly how to appropriately market our property. She was articulate and honest in her evaluation of the property and her suggestions and guidance prior to going on the market were spot on allowing us to get maximum value for our property and an above-asking offer. Marilyn is extremely reliable and organized staying on point throughout the process, and always responding almost immediately to any calls, texts, or emails. Marilyn’s ability to work with the buyer and the buyer’s agent to explain our property and the features and value proposition was flawless. She also helped to form an ideal offer and quick escrow all around, one we couldn’t pass up. She is extremely professional and genuine, and just a smart person all around. Marilyn is a pleasure to partner with in any real estate transaction and in short, just knows how to get it done!

Overperformed when another agent didn’t

I originally purchased my home from Marilyn Comiskey back in 2017 where she acted as the seller’s agent. Marilyn was extremely knowledgeable about the property and thoroughly answered all of my technical questions and questions surrounding the building’s budget. I was so impressed by her polished presentation and professionalism that I decided to hire her to act as my selling agent three years later when it was time to sell the property. My home had been on the market for six months with no offers and I was looking for a quick and seamless sale. Marilyn picked up the listing and sold it off-market in two days for the full asking price, which was the same price it had been previously listed and marketed for. Selling a property off-market is a daunting task, and Marilyn found a buyer in two days! She found an extremely qualified buyer who was able to close in three short weeks. Marilyn facilitated all of the tradespeople for punch-list items and made the process quick and painless. I was impressed by her highly involved, hands-on approach. She was communicative throughout the process and I would highly suggest her to both buyers and sellers seeking a knowledgeable and proactive real estate agent.

Dedicated and helpful experience!

We first met Marilyn at an open house, and she stood out from every other realtor we had encountered. Her kindness, sharp intellect, and genuine enthusiasm for real estate were truly remarkable. As seniors, the idea of downsizing felt overwhelming and hard to grasp. Marilyn approached us with such compassion and understanding, making sure we never felt hurried. She was dedicated to helping us find the right home. When we finally discovered the perfect new property, she skillfully negotiated a substantial price reduction and a credit for repairs. During the sale of our homes, she managed to gather five highly competitive offers in less than a week. Marilyn personally staged our home and helped us with various aspects of the downsizing process. She is not only a fantastic saleswoman but also an exceptionally kind and caring person.

Phenomenal expertise and strategy with Marilyn

Marilyn was the listing agent who originally sold us our condo in Banker's Hill. She is the primary agent for the majority of sales in our building and has a keen understanding of the market. Observing Marilyn consistently secure top dollar for our neighbors, it became clear that she is the premier choice for sales in our building. Marilyn managed the staging of our home and presented us with two offers before the property was even officially listed. One of these offers was exactly what we had hoped for: our desired price, elimination of all physical and paperwork contingencies, and the removal of the appraisal contingency. We were very pleased. Our home closed within three weeks, allowing us to move on to our next chapter in LA. Thank you, Marilyn, for achieving the high price we were aiming for!

Unbelievable experience as a first-time buyer.

Marilyn is truly exceptional! As a first-time homebuyer, I had a barrage of questions about everything from the escrow process to rate shopping and interest rate buy-downs. Marilyn guided me through numerous properties and was adept at identifying potential future issues. When we discovered my ideal home, she expertly structured an offer that included the seller covering a 3-point interest rate buy-down—something my friends and family were astounded by and which saved me thousands on my monthly mortgage payments. Her negotiation skills were impressive, securing not just a significant price reduction but also a seller-funded rate buy-down and reimbursement for repairs. Marilyn also connected me with top-notch professionals for lending, moving, contracting, and insurance. My experience with her was markedly superior compared to what I’ve heard from others. From start to finish, Marilyn offered a truly white-glove service, all while maintaining a humorous and warm demeanor. She is, without a doubt, a consummate professional.

Thank you, Marilyn! You're the best agent!

Marilyn has represented me in three previous transactions, consistently demonstrating exceptional analytical acumen, insightful judgment, and reliable follow-through. In a particular building where she was the dominant force in sales, a unit lingered on the market for several months before a substantial price reduction was implemented to expedite a sale. Marilyn promptly contacted me within an hour of the price adjustment, enabling us to acquire the property for $800,000 less than its projected sales price. Her tenacity, established reputation, and negotiation skills resulted in an outstanding purchase price and a promising investment opportunity. Beyond this, Marilyn's assistance extended to helping us procure furniture and decor for the rental. Each transaction we've conducted with her, whether buying or selling, has been met with our complete satisfaction.

If you want a good experience in any real estate transaction work with Marilyn Comiskey!

I had mentioned to Marilyn, almost in passing, that I’d always dreamed of living in a home with a view of the beautiful trees in Balboa Park. Marilyn took that dream to heart and diligently monitored both pocket and on-market listings for a year and a half. She eventually found me the perfect home - one of the most coveted and hard-to-find floorplans in a luxury building. Every day, I find myself admiring the stunning view. Marilyn’s expertise didn’t stop there—she also helped me sell my previous home before it even hit the market, achieving an impressive $100,000 over the asking price with the second buyer who toured the property. She represented both me and the buyer and her transparency and ethical approach were evident throughout the entire process. Working with Marilyn made everything smooth and effortless from start to finish. I couldn't be more pleased with the outcome!

Marilyn helped us buy our dream home!

Marilyn helped us buy our dream estate in Mission Hills a few months ago. She not only guided us to victory in a competitive multiple offer situation but also successfully negotiated a punch list walkthrough, securing us a substantial credit for repairs. Marilyn personally attended each walkthrough, meticulously marking areas needing correction. We felt fully supported throughout the process and knew she genuinely cared about getting us the best property and value. Marilyn also represented us in selling our home. She was detail-oriented, thorough, and advocated for us during the repair request process. We couldn’t be happier in our new home and look forward to working with Marilyn again in the future.

Our home was not on the market but we met with Marilyn and let her know we would consider selling for the right price and specific terms. Marilyn brought us an all cash record breaking price per square foot offer in a matter of DAYS. It was astonishing how quickly she got the property sold and for a price that far exceeded our expectations. It was an incredibly smooth transaction and Marilyn ensured we were always in the loop. Marilyn has a reputation for procuring the highest sales price and she proved just that with our recent sale.

Marilyn sold my home in 3 days with an all-cash offer $100K over asking—amazing service and care!

Marilyn and her wonderful team sold my property last year before it even hit the market, and it happened in just three days! She was able to secure an all-cash offer that was $100,000 over my asking price from one of her buyer clients. Marilyn even brought over staging items from her own home, and her warmth and friendliness made the entire process a pleasure. She represented both sides of the transaction with fairness and integrity, and I appreciated her transparency, honesty, and excellent communication throughout. Not only that, but she also helped me find my dream replacement property, and I couldn't be happier in my new home!
