There is nothing better than receiving sincere thanks from my clients for a job well done. Some of my clients have shared their thoughts with you below.

We really enjoyed working with Marlene, she showed us many houses before we found our house and she was very patient with us as we made decisions on what was best for our family.

She is the best!

I don't know how I'd express how much I appreciate Marlene's service and helps for sale of my house. From the very beginning to the very end, she made all the process as smooth as possible and whenever we had unexpected issues, she was very proactive to deal with them and resolved the problems for my benefits. She always went an extra mile through the whole process such as staging and being available to late night questions. If you work with her to sell or buy your house, you'd feel you are the lucky one at the end. I have no hesitation to recommend her!

Marlene Stone was an amazing realtor right from the start when we interviewed her. We chose her out of several realtors we interviewed because of her professionalism, knowledge of all aspects, her negotiating skills, her vision for presenting the house in the best possible way. Her ability to makeus feel secure through the whole process was amazing. She walked us step by step through a maze of challenges while she maintained a clear focus. Her communication with us was constant. We never wondered what was going on or what would be next. In our opinion she always went the extra mile for us on every issue. When we needed a contractor or an appraisal or an inspector, Marlene had a list ready for us so that we did not have to try to find one and put more stress on ourselves. She was always there to help us walk us through any issue. This is a slow time of year for sales yet Marlene was able to have two executed contracts within 24 hours and we closed within 34 days. If there was a place to give STARZ on a 1 to 5 scale we would totally give her 10 stars. She is amazing!

We couldn’t have been happier with our selection of a realtor. The first time we met Marlene, she came armed with comps for the area and a game plan to sell our house. We listened and acted on her advice. Less than two weeks later, our house sold. Marlene is a professional who understands all of themany facets of selling a home. She is knowledgeable, responsive, intelligent, and a person of the utmost integrity. We would recommend her without hesitation.

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!

We were very happy to work with Marlene to sell our home. Her research, knowledge, and advice on the market were indispensable. We were able to prepare, stage, and sell our home with her help. Through the contract process, she was very helpful and was attentive to our progress. She was spot on with decor trends.

I could not have asked for a more wonderful Realtor! Marlene prepared me for the sale of my home so well, providing me with all the details so I knew what to expect. When it was time to place my house on the market, she staged my home beautifully! This along with the painting and minor renovations she suggested, were the keys to a quick and successful sale. Marlene went above and beyond in every step of the process. I cannot thank her enough for everything she did for me to ensure success. Please pass along my deep gratitude for all her hard work and kindness. Sincerely, Patricia Bowlin

Marlene knows the market and provided above and beyond the best service I could have even asked for. I spoke to several agents prior to meeting Marlene. I quickly realized that Marlene was interested in being of service, rather than just making a sale. When we discussed the sales price, she recommended a higher number than the other realtors suggested. I told her i did not want the house to sit on the market for an extended amount of time AND that i would cancel the listing at 60 days if i did not feel the house would sell with her. We compromised on the list price between the value she suggested and the lower one recommended by the other agents. In the end, the house was under contract at the highest price she had recommended in less than a week. She told me after the sale I was the first client she has had to convince to list at a higher sales price. I am grateful she did. In additional to the financial benefit, Marlene was over the top with service, helping out to meet inspectors and repair men during the process, as well as checking on the property on a regular basis. She was always quick to respond to my inquiries and kept me posted on any issues as they arose. My feeling is that you could not ask for a better agent. Thank you again Marlene.

This was the 2nd home we have purchased and we didn't use Marlene the first time we purchased a home, but what a difference it made this time around. She first helped us sell our first home and was able to get us a lease back so we had time to focus on finding our perfect new home. Marlene's 25+ years of experience in this business is impressive. She can tell you about every city in the DFW metroplex, from the parks, school districts, community life, shops, and the positive and negatives of the location. We gave her our list of do's and don'ts for our new home and she went searching right away. She was very intentional about the houses she sent us to review online first before scheduling a showing. She wanted to make sure she was pulling the ideal houses we had in mind. If we found something on our own and sent it to her for thoughts, she would do her own research, reach out to the sellers agents and present us with all the information. Marlene is very detailed oriented, she knows what to look for when viewing a house. As she shows a house and walks you through it, she explains things that look concerning but also has an eye for highlighting the best attributes of a home. Marlene has a fantastic network of vendors she has built a reputation with and they are all very reputable themselves. We were able to get an inspection scheduled in less than 24 hours. Marlene even met us at the house for the inspection and sat with us as the inspector went over all his findings. Marlene gives 110% to her clients and truly has their best interest at heart the entire time she works with them. She explains every phase of the process, always answers her phone, is responsive by email, text and calls, and every time she interacts with you it's cheerful and positive. Her knowledge of the relestate business, the housing market and the DFW area is outstanding and shows in her work. Buying a house is very stressful, but anytime we felt uneasy or questioned the process, Marlene was there to provide stability and comfort. We made a few offers before getting one accepted, and each time we made an offer the sellers agent made comments about how well written Marlene's contracts were, how insightful the questions she asked about the house were and how her interactions and responsiveness to them were always positive compared to many of the other buyer's agents. We became very close to Marlene during this home buying process, she started to become a family member that we talked to every day, we even told her we were going to miss our daily talks! We truly can not say thank you enough to Marlene for finding our dream home and helping us fight for it. We plan to make this our forever home, but should we change our minds we don't even have to think about who we will be calling to help us!!
