And as time passed, she proved to us, time and time again, that we chose the exact perfect person to help us buy a house. My wife and I were first time homebuyers, making the move from out of state, from California to Missouri. There was a lot of extra legwork on her part due to the fact that we were 2,000 miles away, and she was up to the challenge. She foresaw most issues before they even occurred. Recommended quality professionals in the area for all of our various needs. She fought for and advocated for what was best for us during the process. She has an encyclopedic knowledge of the area and market. And she was there to hold our hands and walk us thru every step of the process, as this was all very new to us and we had lots of questions. We absolutely could not have done it without her. If you are looking for a professional, knowledgeable, friendly, no-nonsense real estate agent in the St. Louis area, my wife and I would 100% recommend Marinka.

She also went out of her way to help my Croatian-born parents with filling out paperwork, which is obviously beyond her scope of duty but yet she happily offered. When my father fell ill which landed him in the hospital, Marinka worked with us to make sure all the papers could be signed in his hospital room on closing day. It was truly a flawless and stress-free transaction in every way. If you're looking for an empathetic realtor who's at the top of her game, Marinka is your woman. I can't imagine working with anyone else and I'd recommend her to anyone. As we say in Croatian: svaka čast, Marinka! Bravo on a job well-done.

We were buyers on a transaction for which Sandie Hea was the listing agent…read more We have purchased a few properties here in the US (in both California and Missouri) and out of the country (in Costa Rica). In fact, for a little over 2 years I worked in a very busy CA real estate office as both part of the transaction process and in the escrow department. We are no strangers to how transactions can and should go. Working with Sandie Hea blew all of those norms to smithereens. Throughout the process she was disrespectful and either deceitful or poorly informed. Kindness forces me to consider that she just didn't really understand what the seller wanted but if I weren't being kind, I would say that her behavior during the transaction was potentially deliberately deceitful and ethically corrupt. Her communications to our agent were rude, unprofessional, and when it mattered, on issues of real transactional substance, were, at best, poorly considered, and at worse, intentional deceptions. If something crazy happens and Sandie Hea is the only agent available in the world to work with, if my husband and ever decide to sell our house, the only contact with her I would have would be to ask her to move so that I could reach the For Sale By Owner sign. And for clarity's sake, I'm in St. Louis, though my description suggests I'm in SF. *** Below is an edit to my initial review based on Sandie Hea's comments *** To clarify, I didn't say you communicated with us. I said the way you communicated was disrespectful, unprofessional, and potentially duplicitous. Your response that says you never communicated directly with us is true. But you must be aware that I am aware of how you communicated with our agent, the words you used and the tone of those words. Therefore, you must be aware that I know you were unprofessional and disrespectful to our agent. Like, you get that, right? So when you told my agent that the seller was filing an insurance claim and repairing the roof based on our Request for Repairs, and then later had us pick out a color for the roof tiles, we took you at your word that a new roof would be installed prior to close of escrow. There was no "confusion" as you suggest in your response. It was clear. You said that. But you never provided the approval on the request for repairs, despite being asked multiple times. You never had your seller sign it. But on the last day of contingency removal, rather late in the day, you informed our agent that the seller was NOT going to be repairing the roof after-all, despite what you very clearly said, and despite having a roofer ready to go and an approved insurance claim already processed. So when you defend your actions by saying you were only doing what the law requires, which is to do what your client wants, you're basically saying it was the seller's idea to offer us less than 50% of the actual cost of the roof replacement, and at the 11th hour. You're basically saying that it was the seller's idea to, if we didn't agree by the end of that night, re-list the property for sale? You're basically saying that it was the seller's idea to go ahead and process the insurance claim and pocket the money rather than actually fix the roof, costing us even more money in the transaction. You're basically saying that these were all the seller's ideas, despite having a professional roofer and insurance inspector tell the seller that the roof needed to be replaced, that you didn't advise, suggest, or otherwise navigate a course of action? How stupid do you think we are? How little regard you must have for other people. I stand by my review, and, while well crafted, your response fails to address what I said. All it does, and I mean ALL it does, is deflect from two core realities: You communicated horribly and unprofessionally during this transaction. You behaved in ways that are, at best, ethically blurry, and, at worst, broke MLS guidelines and violated national standards for Realtors.

Though some are worth their commissions, many do only enough to get by, sending their clients an automated Multiple Listing Service (MLS) link or sticking a yard sign out front and having the client do much of the work necessary to buy a new property or sell an old one. Not so Irina Wagner. When my son was searching for his first home, (and I was enlisted to help), we were referred to Irina by our broker and what a lucky day that was! We had been tried other Realtors: one sent us listings that had already been sold; another missed two appointments and left us standing in a snowstorm for an hour on another; and a third tried to act both as our Realtor and the seller's agent, assuring us that she would be "totally fair to both sides" and saw nothing wrong with her unscrupulous suggestion that she collect commissions from both parties. "Hey, it's legal in Missouri," she said. Irina rescued us from all of that. She listened carefully to my son's needs, found him listings that exactly met those needs (not trying to upsell us to a property he couldn't afford), set up viewings immediately and was respectful of our time, meeting us punctually and prepared with all information on the various houses; stayed in touch by phone, text and email; answered every question thoroughly and quickly; negotiated a list of repairs needed on the house he selected and a wonderful price on that house besides, helped him arrange insurance and worked closely with the broker to get the very best mortgage rates. In all details of the process, Irina was honest, open, friendly, helpful, intelligent, hard-working and professional. We could not have asked for a better experience in buying a home than that provided by Irina. My son knew what to expect all along the way and the home buying process, which can be a nightmare, was easy, stress-free and, most impressively, in a very tight market, very quick. With Irina's help, he found a house within one week! Closing was actually a pleasant experience and, when my son received his keys from Irina's hands and I acted as photographer of the momentous occasion, I knew I was taking a photo of a lifelong friend in Irina. I cannot recommend Irina Wagner and her team at The Agency highly enough. She is the best Realtor I have ever met and that high praise coming from me. Whether buying or selling a home, you have a great resource in Irina. Choose her and I guarantee you will be in good hands.
