Mary was always avalable for consultation and used her broad knowledge of the market and real estate transactions to solve potential problems ahead of time to avoid delays in completing the sale.
Mary and her daughter, Karin, are truly a dynamic duo. I called on Mary when I suddenly found myself responsible for clearing out and selling our 50-year-old, 3,000-square-foot family home from out of state. Saying goodbye to the house that had been the touchstone of my family life growing up in Chico was a stressful and emotional experience. Mary & Karin took special care to look out for my best interests every step of the way. They were thorough and on top of everything, from repairs to upgrades, taking a thoughtful and conservative approach that kept my costs down while also honoring the home and its unique history. Mary and Karin's clear, consistent communication and responsiveness made them a steady and reliable presence throughout the entire process, putting my mind at ease more times than I can count. Their flawless execution enabled us to close on the house, well over asking, within 30 days of listing during a tough economic time. If you're looking for a dedicated, driven, trustworthy, and conscientious team that will work tirelessly to get the job done and ensure a smooth seller experience, Mary and Karin are the people to call.
Mary is an outstanding realtor whom we explicitly trust to ensure the best outcome for us. Mary, along with Karin Anderson, have helped us find the perfect home and then sold our former house. She was always there with great advice and assistance along with honest opinions. She provided perfect referrals to licensed tradesmen for things that needed to be done and everything was expedited. Despite the stress that always accompanies buying or selling, it couldn't have been a better experience. I can't imagine using any other realtor pair in this area!
Mary has helped me through three purchases and two sales. She makes the process so easy. She stays on top of everything and handles all issues calmly and professionally. She’s the best!
What a pro! We couldn't be happier with the final sale price of our parent's home. With Mary's excellent advice, vast knowledge of the market and superior reputation we were very proud of the product we were able to put on the market. There was so much to do in getting an older home ready to sell, but Mary has all the resources to get it done. We were informed every step of the way of all the work being done and and what a relief that we had such a pro to guide us. Thank you Mary for all of your efforts, you went above and beyond and we could not be more grateful!
Mary McGowan and her assistant Karin were absolutely top-notch from start to finish. They guided our family through the sale of my mother's longtime home with exceptional knowledge, savvy insight, and true professionalism. They were accessible, responsive, and supportive every step of the way, making a meaningful and emotional process feel smooth and well-managed. I couldn't have asked for better representation - highly recommend!
Mary McGowan is an outstanding Realtor. She has helped my mother buy and sell a few homes, and each experience was fantastic. Mary not only knows her stuff, but she's also kind, patient, and a delight to work with. Mary went the extra mile to help my elderly mom move out and and sell her last house. I live out of town, but I knew my mother was in good hands with someone trustworthy. Thanks again Mary for everything.
Mary and Karin are a fabulous duo for a real estate transaction. We loved their honesty, helpfulness, knowledge and professionalism. As a buyer, we felt very well represented and protected from making any mistakes. We have worked with Mary in the past and were thrilled and this was, once again, a great experience. Both Mary and Karin went out of their way to get us additional contacts for inspectors, engineers, and contractors. We can't thank them both enough!
I had the greatest opportunity to have Mary McGowan as my agent for my real estate transaction. Her honesty, integrity and professionalism was outstanding! Mary’s communication from before the listing began throughout the day of escrow closing was excellent! Mary’s knowledge of the real estate market was also excellent! When you are considering a sale or purchase in the market I would highly recommend Mary to be your agent! By far thee best agent ever!
Mary guided us brilliantly thru the whole process of selling a home, from 150 miles away. She understood the market and was able to help us achieve a better result than we thought possible. She went above and beyond to get the property ready to put on the market especially because I live in the Bay Area and my being in Chico to take care of things was not always possible. Mary made the paperwork a breeze and the whole process seem easy and uncomplicated with a smile and a hug!! Her patience and diplomacy handling many people and entities, made my job easy. I truly appreciate and respect Mary and would recommend her to anyone!
Mary and Karin are everything you could hope for in a real estate team—knowledgeable, strategic, honest, and responsive. They’re sharp negotiators, excellent communicators and are go-getters. We were on a timeline and needed to sell the house quickly. My mother passed away as we were preparing the home for sale and they navigated it all with sensitivity and grace. I'm grateful for their support during this difficult time. From the moment I met Mary and Karin, I knew I had found more than just capable realtors—they were personable, easy to talk to and we became fast friends. Sometimes it just works. They took the stress out of the process, handled every detail with confidence and care, and made us feel supported the entire way. I’m so grateful we chose Mary and Karin. Thank you for a seamless experience!
