Marina is an outstanding realtor. She totally exceeded our expectations and found a beautiful home for us that we were absolutely thrilled about when we stepped in after the purchase. Moreover, she was able to work with us virtually due to a long-distance move and the pandemic; however, we had full confidence in buying as if we were literally there due to the amount of time and effort she put in on our behalf.There are a number of reasons why I would give Marina my highest recommendation as a realtor. She has the perfect balance of presenting an unbiased view of the property while at the same time providing her thoughts and experience where needed. This is critical for a buyer in developing his or her view of the house while still being supported by her immense experience as a realtor. Additionally, her attention to detail is truly unparalleled. She can see small imperfections or note po…

She has the perfect balance of presenting an unbiased view of the property while at the same time providing her thoughts and experience where needed. This is critical for a buyer in developing his or her view of the house while still being supported by her immense experience as a realtor. Additionally, her attention to detail is truly unparalleled. She can see small imperfections or note possible large future restoration projects with a trained eye that other realtors might miss. These little details certainly add up when considering the ultimate value of a home. Further, she is also cognizant of the surrounding amenities of the property and neighborhood that are integral in choosing the right home. Perhaps most importantly, Marina has a passion to ensure that you, as the buyer, will love the home you buy from the moment you set foot inside. To that end, she keeps a very organized list of repairs, upgrades, and improvements that can be performed prior to or immediately after closing. She is very supportive of your requests and communicates extremely well with all parties involved in the purchase to make your dream home a reality. When you have your new keys in hand, you will be extremely grateful to have had Marina as your realtor!

This was the fourth property I've sold and I can say far and away it was the best realtor experience. Marina was extremely professional she has great attention to detail, is highly client-focused, and is very trustworthy all elements that were put to the test during our recent sale of our existing home and purchase of new home. From the onset, she provided detailed market pricing data (which appealed to me as an engineer), depth of knowledge of existing properties, and flexibility in accommodating our wishes for initial searches. Once we got serious about making an offer, Marina was an easy choice to help navigate the process. When we submitted an offer, we were met with an aggressive timeline in order to secure offer acceptance on the property. Marina acted with extreme urgency in helping us list our property and she used her internal network to line up advance viewings. Because of her …

This was the fourth property I've sold and I can say far and away it was the best realtor experience.

From the onset, she provided detailed market pricing data (which appealed to me as an engineer), depth of knowledge of existing properties, and flexibility in accommodating our wishes for initial searches. Once we got serious about making an offer, Marina was an easy choice to help navigate the process. When we submitted an offer, we were met with an aggressive timeline in order to secure offer acceptance on the property. Marina acted with extreme urgency in helping us list our property and she used her internal network to line up advance viewings. Because of her efforts, we secured an offer the initial day we listed our property. Over the course of the next few weeks, she was instrumental in helping us navigate a complicated contingency sale and her responsiveness and straightforward approach kept us calm throughout the process. She is a firm but fair negotiator which allowed us to secure a deal on both ends which was no small task. Her attention to detail was critical in ensuring nothing was missed to satisfy us, our buyers, and the sellers of the home we were buying. In summary, Marina did an outstanding job and I would refer her to anyone looking to purchase a home. She earned 100% of her commission and went above and beyond the scope of realtors in my prior experience. She was especially accommodating in coordinating around my and my wife's busy schedules. 6 out of 5 stars!

As a first-time home buyer, I couldn't have been happier working with Marina. She was proactive in finding properties that checked the boxes my family wanted and never pushed us to sign up for something we weren't sure about. Marina provided us with the knowledge and experience to make informed decisions. After a few months of searching, we found the home for us and Marina was diligent in making sure we hit all the necessary deadlines to close, which we are especially grateful for given the current housing market. The biggest testament to Marina's professionalism came a month after we had already closed the deal. While we were moving into the home, we found one of our plumbing lines had sprung a leak. Unfortunately, the warranty company had denied our claim for coverage and it looked like we were going to have to repair the issue out of our own pockets. Marina took it upon herself, going…

The biggest testament to Marina's professionalism came a month after we had already closed the deal. While we were moving into the home, we found one of our plumbing lines had sprung a leak. Unfortunately, the warranty company had denied our claim for coverage and it looked like we were going to have to repair the issue out of our own pockets. Marina took it upon herself, going above and beyond, to reach out to her contact at the warranty company, who forwarded our case to upper management and overturned their decision, covering 100% of the cost. I was blown away by such an amazing effort and she continues to check in with us to make sure everything is still running smoothly. Thank you Marina. I look forward to working with you on the next home as our family grows.

Marina was our real-estate agent and helped us in buying our dream home! We recently moved to the Orange County area and were very hesitant initially in getting into this home purchase, in such a challenging market. However, Marina exceeded our expectations throughout the entire buying process and was incredibly thorough in every stage of this buying process. She was a great advisor and helped us navigate this difficult time to purchase a house! She always made sure that we are always ahead of the curve in every step of the process, which was entirely due to her thoroughness and dedication. She walked us through the step-by-step process and always made sure that we know what to expect and offered advice during our negotiations. Marina was knowledgeable and immensely helpful throughout the whole process. Marina is quick to respond, patient, always happy to help, and resourceful. Even afte…

Even after completing the buying process, she helped us wholeheartedly with all the repairs needed in our house. She was quickly able to provide a list of contractors, handymen, painters, and others who helped us with all the minor repairs and renovations! I would highly recommend Marina to anyone looking to purchase or sell a home in the Orange County, CA area.
