Marlene is amazing. We had a wonderful time working with her during our house-finding process. She is honest, patient, knowledgeable, and easy to work with. We highly recommend her to anyone looking for a new home. Trust her inputs and guidance through this challenging and confusing process, especially if you don’t have a good company to assist you.

We can’t recommend Marlene enough! Her professionalism is exceptional, evident through her timely responses, even during her travels. We discovered that her quick and insightful communication played a crucial role in securing our home among similar offers. Marlene's patience, courtesy, and grace make the entire process enjoyable, and her valuable advice on both the house and the offer was instrumental in our decision-making. Working with her was a positive and seamless experience.

We had the pleasure of working with Marlene, an amazing real estate pro who’s really professional and has the expertise. She's got a great eye for detail and some serious negotiation skills. Even in this crazy competitive market with about 10 other offers, Marlene managed to get ours accepted. She's a rock star! But what I love most about Marlene is how she connects with people. She's super friendly and approachable, which made us feel totally at ease throughout the whole process. It was like having a friend in the real estate world. If you're in the market to buy or sell, I can't recommend Marlene enough. She's dedicated, knows her stuff, and makes the whole experience a breeze. We're so thankful for her awesome service!

Marlene is the absolute best. I could not recommend her more. She is extremely knowledgeable, is amazing at communication, and just a kind, genuine human being. I am a first-time home buyer, and she helped me get my first (and only) offer accepted, which seems unheard of, especially in the current market! There were some unexpected challenges and delays in the closing process due to circumstances outside of our control, but Marlene was extremely communicative throughout the whole process, and I am just grateful she was my agent. I hope to work with her again in the future to buy a house.

Marlene is the sweetest and kindest person ive ever worked with! She's also really really good at what she does; always on top of things, and does everything to make sure the process is smooth for her client. Especially as a first time home buyer, she’s very patient in answering my questions, explaining things, and giving great recommendations when you ask. And really, you just know you can fully trust her with every single thing because in every step of the way, she always puts front your best interests. Im really lucky that i had her as my agent (thanks Redfin for the awesome match!). Definitely would work with her again if i ever buy/sell a house in the future!

Marlene was absolutely wonderful and supportive throughout our entire experience of home search and purchase. She accurately understood our requirements, got to know us and guided us thoroughly, taking into account that we were first time home buyers. We laud her patience with our questions and concerns! She was always on top of all to-do lists and took out time to explain everything in detail, before and after we purchased our home. We never felt lost or like we were being pushed against our will. She kept us apprised of the super dynamic market and consistently encouraged us to find our perfect home, We learned so much from her and appreciate her. Thanks so much Marlene!!!

Marlene was incredibly helpful and responsive throughout the process of purchasing my condo. As a first-time buyer, feeling overwhelmed and with a lot of questions, Marlene was patient in helping guide me through the process, answering questions, and if she did not know, she would look into it for me. Marlene was very nice and personable, making communication easy, and always following up with me. I'm really glad we got to work together and I will be going to her for any future services.

It’s my first time buying a home during this very stressful climate. However, Marlene made it pretty smoothly and painless. She did not push me or ever suggested me to do anything I felt uncomfortable when placing an offer. She’s always patient, attentive and making sure that she’s clear about explaining the terms, pros and cons, etc.. The associated agents working closing with her are phenomenal. Special shout out to Theresa, Fernando, and Esteban. They were so professional when doing the showing, and answered any questions I had during the tour. And Marlene always followed up the same day if not right after, listening and helping me analyze what’s the important deal for me. After our offer got accepted, Marlene made sure her presence at ALL TIME! From the inspection to walk through,... Show More

Really thankful that Marlene was here to guide me through the journey as a 1st time home buyer. She was very patient, encouraging, and attentive. I had spoken with other realtors before meeting Marlene and I liked that she would not pressure me to put in an offer quickly if I was feeling unsure or bid something unreasonably high (considering how crazy the market is right now). She gave a lot of great tips for making my offers and terms more competitive. I felt that Marlene had my best interest at heart and really appreciated that she would check up on me, make sure I was okay with everything and reassured me when I was feeling anxious. She was always there for my inspections, made sure I didn’t sign anything that we did not discuss and agree to. Responds quickly and always gets me the... Show More
