She worked with me, my contractor, inspectors and stager, to get this beautiful family home ready for the market. Karen is thorough is transparent with everything she does, communicates effectively and is truly an advocate for the seller. In todays market with all of the uncertainty with housing interest rates and the global economy, it's reassuring to have such a positive and enthusiastic realtor.

Rachel Swann and her team helped us sell our Noe Valley Victorian for well above asking under a…read moretime crunch, as we had already purchased another home. We vetted several Noe Valley realtors and chose Rachel because of her professionalism, knowledge, "can do it - get it done now" attitude and strong work ethic. She and her team were exceptional in every way - responsiveness, getting our home ready and staged for sale, marketing and negotiating until the early hours to close the deal. She makes excellent recommendations regarding home prep and has the contractors on "speed dial" to start work immediately. We just can't say enough about Rachel Swann and her team! We highly reommend using the Swann Group for the sale of your home. Thank you Rachel!​

Seriously, people. I have never seen a professional service provider with all 5 stars, until now…read more But I am not at all surprised that Rachel is the first I've seen. My husband and I have moved multiple times and worked with many realtors. We have never worked with someone like Rachel. We are so thankful that our friends referred her to us. I was skeptical at first that someone could really be so great - after all, what real value to agents add nowadays given the age of the internet? (So I thought...) You tell her your tastes one time and she gets it. We were in the market for a home needing TLC and she was spot on with a number of places she showed us. She also was more than willing to work on deals that were complicated (probate, estate sales) and that would take more of her time/energy. If we sent her an inquiry about a place we saw on Redfin, she would respond quickly with details on why/why not it was a place to see. Even when we were unavailable to see a place, she would go check it out on our behalf. No bringing you to see homes that don't make sense. You don't have to ASK her to get info on a house from the selling agent, she does it automatically. And she gets every last detail, including multiple reports that underwriters need nowadays. She will be honest with you about if a house is over/under/fairly valued. You don't have to worry about her showing houses only at the top of your budget. Or fighting to get you the best selling price, even if it is only $5k difference (or a better toilet when the seller has to install one! HA!). She also doesn't sit on her hands when things, procedurally, get hung up - she gets on the phone to figure out a solution even if the other end isn't playing nice. Even more, Rachel really pampers her clients even after the close. She continues to check in and see if she can be helpful with anything as we go through our reno. There are so many other examples I could give for why Rachel is just an awesome human being in addition to an incredible professional. We. Love. Rachel. You will too.

We placed all of our trust in Anna, and it paid off. From the beginning it was clear that her top priority was getting us the best deal while making sure we felt supported. She never let us stress. She took care of every detail, and her team handled everything from touch ups to staging to closing with total professionalism. Anna also did an excellent job setting expectations around price. She gave a clear and honest assessment of the market and kept us updated as we approached our listing date. Once our home went live, she was a powerhouse. She drove visibility, brought in serious buyers, and guided us through final negotiations with multiple strong offers. We reached our dream price, and a new family found their dream home. Do not look any further. Anna is the one you want.

Katrena was kind, patient and helped us make sense of every detail of this crazy process, especially when we experienced some very challenging and disappointing offers. In hindsight, Katrena was our fortune teller; she promised us from the beginning that she wouldn't let us buy a home we didn't absolutely love and she was 110% right. With Katrena's expertise and professional (and moral!) support, we ended up securing a home that matched our needs more than we could have imagined. From start to end, we can't recommend Katrena and her team enough!!

Reyna is a very educated and kind realtor. My partner and I met her at an open house and she was…read morevery kind while educating us on the home buying process. We had no idea where to start and she connected us to a very knowledgeable lender, Vercy Jones (E3 Realty) who was there as well to answer our questions. Reyna is very quick to get to know your needs and she was able to filter properties we would be interested and send us the disclosures on the properties very quickly so we would be knowledgeable about the properties we were touring. Reyna is most definitely the realtor you want to contact! Other than being extremely knowledgeable and quick, she is very supportive and will answer all your questions promptly and kindly. She's also amazing having been able to get our offers accepted multiple times, and guide us during this whole process. She made our home purchasing journey very swift and stress free. I will always recommend her to anyone and EVERYONE I know. With Reyna you are sure to get the best customer service.

We first met Hilary Davis in the very beginning of our home search journey in Terra Linda in the…read morefall of 2021. She has been a great resource and provided a lot of terrific information and expertise as she is a Marin "Local". Hilary's knowledge of the market and solid industry connections (agents, lenders, inspectors, various contractors) was instrumental to the purchase of our first home in spring of 2022 :) After we closed escrow, Hilary was still on top of everything and assisted us by helping line us up with painters and floor refinishers. As new home buyers, we had very little experience in this and she was definitely a great help and provided guidance. We really enjoyed working with her, and definitely recommend her to anyone who is looking for a resourceful, patient, responsible, friendly agent. Thanks so much Hilary!

Hilary is by far the best Realtor we have ever worked with, hands down. We've bought four other…read morehomes in the San Francisco Bay Area, and in our past experiences, the agents we've worked with haven't done a whole lot of legwork for us, instead placing the burden of finding a property squarely on our shoulders. What a difference with Hilary! Our first meeting with her, she drove us around and showed us neighborhoods, taking the time to go over each area in detail. When she sent us MLS listings, she was incredibly responsive when we had questions about properties we were interested in, and she always made the time to show us places we wanted to see. She even filmed a walk-through of a home for us when we weren't able to get out to see it that day. The other wonderful thing about Hilary is that she KNOWS Marin County. I'm a lifelong Bay Area resident and thought I understood the ins and outs of Marin pretty thoroughly. Well, Hilary's deep knowledge of this area blew mine completely out of the water. Because she was born and raised here, she knows the county like the back of her hand, and she understands the pros and cons of living in each of the various towns. We also loved that while Hilary highlighted the positives of the various properties, she also did not sugarcoat the negatives. Early on, there was one home near the top of our price range that we were interested in, and it would have been easy for her to make a quick sale if she just showered praise on it. Instead, while she did say positive things about the home, she also pointed out negatives we hadn't thought of, and we decided to pass. Through Hilary's hard work and diligence, we eventually found the perfect home for our family. I should also add that we were looking in a popular price range, which made the market very competitive. The house we ended up purchasing was one we had seen on the MLS but had dismissed due to a faulty assumption. Hilary suggested we go check it out, anyway, and when we saw it in person we knew it was "the one". She carefully crafted an offer for us and the home was ours. We are very grateful to Hilary for her help and expertise. She was with us through every step of the process, going above and beyond with every aspect of the experience. She was always accommodating, super proactive, patient, and extremely knowledgeable. We couldn't have asked for a better guide.
