This was our first home to sell a house and Marlene was very patient with us during the process. She came out 8 months in advanced of when we wanted to list to do a walk through of our house. She told us how to de-clutter, pointed out things we needed to fix or clean up, and she made great recommendations on paint and flooring. She even connected us with her flooring vendor who was fantastic to work with and did an amazing job.The updated paint and new floors really gave a great 'face lift' to our house. Once we were ready to list, Marlene came out and staged the house. She truly has an eye for placement, colors, decor, and making a house feel inviting as soon as you walk into it. The majority of our compliments on the Centralized Showing Feedback were people commenting on the how cute our house, the beautiful floors and the set up. She gave our house a great flow! We had multiple offers come in and Marlene was very thorough with explained the positives and negatives to all of them as well as explaining our options as the seller. We were able to feel confident and pleased with our decisions. We had the inspection and only minor things came up, but Marlene was there with a recommended vendors list that she has worked with which was a great resource. The few we called were pleased to help any of Marlene's referrals. They were all punctual, knowledgeable, and did the job well along with being budget friendly. Marlene was a stellar realtor to work with on selling our home. She made a nervous, emotional, and intimidating process calming understandable. She was always willing to take our calls and questions. She explains things clearly and in layman's terms to ensure we understand everything. You can tell she invests 110% into her work and clients, she is passionate about real estate and knows the business better than anyone we have met. It has been a true pleasure to work with Marlene and we would recommend her to everyone!
