Mary Ann Cortez

When my father passed away his estate went into probate. He had two properties that needed to be sold. Mary Ann was referred to me and I can't express how grateful I am! She was in contact with me through each step and helped me make important and difficult decisions with compassion and knowledge. Mary Ann was able to navigate the Bureau of Indian Affairs, a land lease, an HOA, and a difficult escrow company just to name a few challenges. The home was dated and needed to be freshened up. Mary Ann drove the four hours round-trip multiple times to get the home ready for market, as I live on the other side of the country. She was an incredible asset and partner in this difficult time, and I am forever grateful! Mary Ann knows the market and was able to get way above asking. She was able to sell the other property at an amazing price too! I would recommend her to anyone for any type of home sale!

My father passed away and his estate went into probate. He had two properties that needed to be sold. I own a home but didn't realize how much more probate home sales entailed. Thank goodness Mary Ann was referred to me! She was incredibly knowledgeable in probate and very helpful. She was able to navigate difficult situations with pressure from relatives, a challenging HOA, as well as all of the other layers that come with buying and selling a home. I live on the other side of the country and Mary Ann was in constant contact with me, letting me know she was driving the hour to my father's condo to meet up with painters and contractors. Because of all of this the home sold at a fantastic price! She was so great that I had her sell my father's other home which she sold way over asking. Whether you need to buy, sell or have a probate situation, Mary Ann Cortez is the perfect Realtor!

Mary Ann Cortez from the minute I called knew she had to be my realtor for my father's estate. She was extremely sympathetic to what I was going through and managed my dad’s estate with such care and dignity. Always offered a helping a hand where every needed, even taking trash out and dropping things off at Salvation Army. Mary Ann is incredibility knowledgeable in probate sales, I never had to worry, she always kept me informed every step of the way. I would highly use her for any realtor needs weather it’s to buy or sale.

Mary Ann handled this (first time for me) probate sale and the process from my standpoint was seamless. She is professional, knowledgeable, responsive, thorough, personable, and completed all related tasks very quickly, usually the same day, including document preparation. I cannot thank her enough for her assistance and guidance. The house was listed and we accepted a higher than the listed price offer two days later. Escrow closed on time with no delays. She has my highest recommendation.

Mary Ann provided great attention to the market and helped me get TWO offers accepted (the first seller wasn't financially ready to sell). She helped me present strong offers in today's market without going over my budget, while her personable skills helped the sellers select my offer. She also ensured all inspections and details of the property were carefully tended to and documented, which resulted in some credit towards my purchase price. I would not have the amazing place I live in now without her as my agent!
