Experience and Credentials

“Holly is a professional who truly understands the market. She gives candid, accurate advice and direction throughout the entire process.  She’s accessible, supportive and consistently goes above and beyond.  Her intelligence, warmth, good humor and authenticity are always evident.”
— Judith B

I am a licensed, full-time Realtor, and an actively participating member of:

  • Berkeley Association of Realtors
  • California Association of Realtors
  • National Association of Realtors
  • Multiple Listings Service

In the 25+ years since beginning my real estate career in 1988, I have consistently been ranked within the top echelon of local residential Realtors. Year in and year out, every single year of my career, I have been acknowledged as a leader in client service and sales results.

I became affiliated with Marvin Gardens Real Estate in 2009. Currently, I am ranked within the top 1% of agents area wide. I am the top listing agent, and the top overall agent, within my company.

From 1995 to 2009, I was affiliated with Coldwell Banker Real Estate. During that time, I received Coldwell Banker’s International President’s Circle Award, for “exemplifying the highest commitment to professional integrity, marketing expertise, and exceeding client expectations.”

From 1988 to 2009, I was affiliated with Mason-McDuffie Real Estate (then the top realty office in Berkeley). During that time, I earned the ranking of #1 Top Producing Agent.

Every day, I strive to improve my skills, increase my knowledge, earn the trust of my clients, and build goodwill within the community. Your satisfaction and my reputation are far more important to me than my sales volume. But rather than listen to me, please browse through what others have said about working with me.

My area of expertise includes several East Bay neighborhoods.
