Client Testimonials
Much of our work comes from past clients and the people they send our way. Here is what Marisol Bay homeowners and buyers told us once the keys had changed hands.
We were sure the kitchen needed new counters before we listed. Marisol showed us comps proving buyers would rather pick their own stone, steered us to $3,200 of paint and lighting instead of an $18,000 remodel, and we had three vetted offers within five days — over asking.
First-time buyers, already in love with a bungalow. Elliot spotted the ageing roof and electrical panel on our first tour, pulled every closed sale within six blocks, and used the inspection to win us $11,000 in seller credits.
A hospital fellowship moved us two states and gave us one weekend to look. Nora's half-day tour covered four neighbourhoods and our real commute, and kept us away from a flashy flip with drainage trouble. Two weeks later she walked us through the right home by video and won $7,500 in closing credits.
We nearly walked into a new-build community without an agent. Theo steered us off a lot backing onto future commercial zoning, told us which upgrades hold resale value, and brought an inspector before drywall who found two disconnected bath exhaust runs.
Real numbers instead of a rosy flyer — actual tax reassessments and maintenance reserves. Theo modelled four duplex candidates, checked every tenant lease, and worked with our intermediary so the 1031 exchange closed inside the 45-day window.
Selling the beach cottage I had lived in for twenty-eight years felt daunting. Priya found an honest downsizer, lined up painters and window cleaners, and negotiated a 30-day rent-back so I moved once, straight into my townhome, with nothing in storage.
We have bought and sold three coastal properties with this team. Every price they gave us was backed by closed sales, and every fee was in writing before we signed anything.
The tide report
A short, occasional note when a home worth the tide comes up — often before it reaches the open market.
