Dear Allison, I can't even count the number of times during our work together that Juan and I have commented, "Allison is the best!" Truly, no ka oi! No agent could surpass your level of service and expertise; you are a superior professional in every way. Eighteen months ago, when I first contacted a handful of Realtors looking for the right agent for us, you immediately stood out from the rest. I sought someone to guide us in a few targeted upgrades to improve the home and prepare for a summer '11 listing, but most agents I contacted implied I should call them once I was ready to sell. In contrast, you enthusiastically offered your expert guidance from the beginning, not only advising what upgrades would increase the value of the home, but also providing excellent referrals for everything from electricians to drywallers. Even before we were close to listing the home, you were already the best agent I could imagine. But of course, the proof is in the pudding, and my goodness, did you proove yourself when it came to selling our home. I still can hardly believe you provide staging services through Kathy Norton of Design Management-wow, what a spectacular transformation! And the professional real estate photography you provided showed the home off wonderfully. Add to this the marketing you did for our home, and it's no wonder our first open house was full to bursting with potential buyers...and, it turns out, our actual buyers. We had an offer from them before the week was through, and for much more than I had imagined possible. True to form, you continued to take excellent care of us throughout the entire escrow process--even watering our plants those last few days after we'd moved out, because it was so important to both of us that we turn over the home to the new owners in excellent condition. How grateful I am that we had the opportunity to work with you! A thousand mahalo's, Lindsay & Juan Marquez Each office is independently owned and operated
