I found Marlene via neighborhood referrals, and I couldn’t have been luckier! Marlene is a dream agent! She dominates the Tesoro neighborhood, and now I know why! She is very professional, and goes above and beyond expectations. Her tireless energy, great problem-solving, high ethical standards, and commitment to her clients is amazing. She treats you like her one and only customer…and she means it! If you are fortunate enough to do business with her, you will gain a friend.
Marlene's local knowledge was tremendous. She knew every house that was listed in Newport Coast and knew many that hadn't hit the MLS. She sold a house for me for more than I thought she could get and helped me buy another.
Not enough superlatives to describe this agent. She continued to follow up well after the sale was final helping me find trades people for final touches. When I was sick, she brought me chicken noodle soup. Just an amazing agent and an amazing person.
This is one of the finest RE agents that I have done business with. Marlene showed us a nice selection of houses, however when nothing appealed to us she really went to work and wrote letters to three different communities to dig up house for us. She is tenacious. After procuring our dream house, she even went so far out of her job and helped with all of the contracting and meeting people at the house every day. We were out of town people moving to California from Chicago and SHE HANDLED IT ALL, unbelievable!
Honest...Trustworthy…Integrity...Polished!!! We hired Marlene as our Realtor for our relocation to the Newport Beach area. As a former Realtor, my expectations were very high...and WOW...she surpassed anything I could have imagined! From her market knowledge to her follow up to her negotiating skills...Marlene is a rare find! She truly delivered on her tagline of "redefining your real estate experience". She brings a new energy to an old industry! Very refreshing compared to the industry standard!
Marlene Reed was amazing to work with! Between my husband and I, we have bought and sold 5 homes and have never had an experience even come close to the positive one we had with Marlene. She was extremely professional from day 1 and worked so hard in both selling and helping us to purchase our new home. She went above and beyond any agent as far as her endless hours of working and efforts in a speedy sale. In all the years dealing with ok to pretty good (and some not so good) agents, Marlene was beyond exceptional, and such a pleasure to work with. I felt very lucky to meet her and have this opportunity. I would highly recommend her to anyone selling or purchasing a home.
Marlene made a stressful process as easy as it could get! From putting the best face on our home, to advertising, showings and open houses, her optimism and positive attitude kept us on course to a speedy sale. She has contacts for everything! Decorators, painters, electricians, gardeners, and contractors. I couldn't recommend anyone more professional or wonderful to work with!
Marlene is very honest and true hard worker. It was a very pleasant experience and I plan to use her in the future. I recommend her to everyone. Marlene sold 3 separate houses in the cul-de-sac and the others all felt the same way. Truly unmatched in the industry!
