“I was referred to Holly through a colleague at work. I was interested in the North Berkeley area, yet uncertain what to expect. The market was at a feverish peak.
I was very busy with a new job, and not very available. Holly located many desirable properties and helped me focus on what would really make me happy. She always encouraged me to keep looking, not to compromise, not to overextend myself financially, and not to “settle.” She extensively researched two different houses I thought I might want, and demonstrated that both were not appropriate choices (in one case due to extensive foundation issues; in another due to poor resale value).
In a relatively short period of time, we found a house. Holly recommended an excellent inspector and mortgage broker, negotiated for concessions on the part of the seller; and closed the transaction quickly and smoothly.
I found Holly to be extremely professional, highly knowledgeable, and very easy to work with. This recommendation is easily given and well deserved.”
