Seller review
Highly professional, great communication, hard working.

Highly professional, great communication, hard working.

Great communication from the start. Listened to our needs and took them on board. Worked hard to find buyers in a slow market in a limited time frame. Very professional in her approach and never felt pressured into anything. We feel Marlene went above and beyond to make the deals happen and to work for us. From our first conversation, she made us feel confident she would get the best possible outcomes, which she succeeded in. I would absolutely recommend Marlene to someone else and if we found ourselves going through this process again, would approach her again.

Marlene has been excellent to deal with & has gone above and beyond to help out in any way possible

Marlene has assisted with issues around building inspectors negligence and has actively followed up on any questions we had about the property. She has been very easy to deal/interact with and has helped make sure the sale has gone in favor of both the vendor and us the purchasers. 100/10 would definitely use her services in the future and more then willing to recommend her in the future.

Down to earth, outstanding agent

Down to earth, outstanding agent

One of the first things that impressed me was Marlene respect for my home. It goes a long way when shoes are taken off at the door every time she came around. Very hard working and communication out standing. Often checking in on me when I was having low days. Laughter is good for the soul ,and we had many laughs along the way . Marlene is passionate about what she does and professional. When I sold my house I was given a mohair blanket in my favourite colour,how cool is that. It's those special things that make Marlene stand out. Thank you so much for going on this journey with me,you have been awesum.
