Ideal͏ Realtor Before buying a home here, I came to Chico to find the perfect realtor to represent me. I wanted someone who would be watching out for my interests, representing me - not someone who would be working both sides of the isle so to speak. I wanted someone knowledgeable, professional, with integrity that would be fair to both sides while representing me as I have always felt the best deals are win/win. I also wanted someone personable, with whom I could relate, and like. My experience with Mary McGowan proved I had indeed chosen wisely. First we had a meeting and she knew exactly what I wanted, ideally. I also didn't want to waste anyone's time being shown houses that didn't "fit the bill" or which were outside my "financial ballpark." I also liked it that I could look at her website to look on my own computer to see what was available and what might be a fit. Mary found just the right house for me, negotiated the few negatives that came up with the home inspection so that both the buyer (me) and the seller felt the outcome was fair to all concerned and I bought the house. Do yourselves a favor whether you are buying or selling. Hire Mary McGowen! I truly feel she is the best!

Proactive, knowledgeable and resourceful

Mary kept us on track preparing our home for sale, including connecting us with various subcontractors: painting, hardwood, electrical etc. She was able to project what the current market would do and where we stood. Within 4 days of listing we received 4 offers over asking price. We very much appreciated her advice during the counter offer process and her team was well coordinated through out the entire sale cycle. I would highly recommend her.

Wonderful agent, professional, persistent, compassionate, and with an great team

Wonderful agent, professional, persistent, compassionate, and with an great team. Mary was extremely easy to work with. She listened to our wishes as we sold our lifelong family home and property. She communicated frequently, responded quickly to calls, texts, and emails. She definitely understands the Chico market and helped us to close a challenging sale at the right price. She also helped us find buyers we were happy to pass along this much-loved home and land to. Mary is professional, and gives 100% to her clients. She was recommended to us by a friend and I , too, highly recommend Mary.

Mary helped us sell our parents house from out of state

Mary helped us sell our parents house from out of state

Mary was referred to us from a family friend. Our parents had to move out of state to be closer to family and for medical care. My sister and I were helping them sell their house. When we first met Mary at our parents house, we were very impressed. She came prepared with comps and information about the house. She had great ideas on selling both their house and property. We knew that she was the one for the job. My sister and I live in Oregon, so Mary helped us do all of this from out out state, after the initial meeting. She communicated with us frequently throughout the entire process. We always knew exactly what was happening and what we were waiting on. She facilitated pretty much everything that needed to be done. There were some bumps along the way, with a buyer who backed out, and issues with inspections. Mary handled all of it well, communicating with us, giving us options, advice when we asked for it, but always leaving decisions up to us. My sister and I communicated everything with our parents. Mary met our parents by phone several times to go over details of the sale. We could not have done this without her expert guidance and determination. We would definitely recommend Mary to others. She is great at her job and very professional and knowledgeable.

Highly recommended!

Mary was a pleasure to work with. The property was affected by the Camp Fire, so it was a bit of a challenging endeavor. Mary and her staff continuously pursued every obstacle and solved the issues we were faced with. They were dedicated to our goal. We feel lucky to have Mary for our future real estate needs!

Best Real Estate Agent to have representing you! Mary knows the market well and is quick to respond

Mary McGowan goes above and beyond to guide you to purchase or sell your property. Her knowledge and unwavering guidance in the process of acquiring real estate is impeccable! Mary knew our needs within hours of meeting her and we felt like we had known her for years. We trusted Mary to make decisions in the buying process and always felt confident she was representing us as if it was her home she was purchasing. We can't say enough for Mary's talents, honesty, knowledge, documentation and communication in every aspect of the process.

Loved working with Mary

Mary was great to work with. Upbeat, friendly, extremely knowledgeable, experienced, and strategic. She made buying a home straightforward and I always knew the deal was in good hands. She did lots of follow-up with all involved and took time to explain all aspects of the process, from making the offer to ordering inspections and requests etc. She was very focused on making sure every i was dotted and t was crossed. Would recommend highly.
