“We want to thank you for everything you did to help us find our dream home in Tiburon."

We appreciate that you were the one that helped us complete a complex transaction on the selling side even though we had another realtor for selling. You were the one who made sure that our buyer and his agent met their target dates, ensured that their loan was ok and worked with title companies on both the buying and selling side to see that our new home was funded on time. Our selling realtor, who should have done these things, was like a Chevy salesperson - make the deal and off to the next person before the final details of the transaction are completed. You were like a Porsche salesperson, following through with all the steps until everything was OK. You certainly went the extra mile to help us in so many ways during naturally stressful times.

We just completed the very successful sale of our condo, due largely to Joan's guidance and hardwork. Joan is a consummate professional with deep knowledge of Marin real estate, including familiarity with many neighborhoods at all price levels. She is very hands-on, well organized and attentive to the client. We highly recommend Joan if you have real estate transactions in your future.

"Put simply, we can't imagine how things could have gone any better."

Listing our house with Joan was like hooking our wagon to a locomotive. Nothing stands in the way. She knows exactly what to do and she gets it all done efficiently and with a minimum of fuss. 
Joan was in constant communication with us throughout the entire process and provided sage guidance when we had tough choices to make. She is immensely hard-working and knowledgeable, with many years of experience in real estate and a graduate business degree.  We could rave on and on, but you probably get the idea. Five stars, two thumbs up, and an A+.

“Joan is definitely someone you want in your corner."

I have enjoyed a very positive working relationship with Joan since 2006. Throughout that time she had proven herself to be one of the sharpest, hardest working real estate agents in Marin County. Joan has a "clients come first" attitude and she always gets the deal done. Agility and Drive are two words that I would use to describe Joan's ability to navigate real estate markets and trends.

"Joan is truly an extraordinary partner in all things real estate because of her breadth of business expertise and depth of knowledge in finance."

Joan has recently represented us in purchasing a new home and selling our home. We had been looking for the right investment property which would also be our family home for years with her. Joan is truly an extraordinary partner in all things real estate because of her breadth of business expertise and depth of knowledge in finance - which was extremely instrumental in allowing to get these deals done; in flipping/remodeling - her remodel sources are awesome; in opportunity assessments - her insight and instincts are infallible; and in her ability to work with other realtors - we've learned how invaluable this is to have in a realtor - Joan is SUCH A PRO. She was our property expert, scheduling manager, financial consultant, therapist, friend and completely had our back every step of the way. Working with Joan was one of the most impressive professional experiences we've ever had.

Joan's ability to project calm and patience, in a housing market that is anything but those things, was amazing. Yet she knew when to move fast to close a deal. Her tactical knowledge of the southern Marin market is strong.

“If you are a professional hire Joan without any reservation."

Joan brings a solid business approach to the real estate process. It is obvious Joan was successful in the corporate world as her professionalism is evident from the start. I have been exposed to several real estate agents and was not impressed. Joan, is a true professional in an industry crowed with part timers, looking for a quick buck.

"Joan is a master. Confident, committed, and unflappable. You want her on your team."

Working with Joan was one of the most impressive professional experiences we've ever had. When my family decided we were ready to move from San Francisco to Marin, we knew we needed a real estate agent who was very familiar with the area who could help us find the best house in the best location for our needs. Joan was amazing to work with, knows Marin better than anyone, and was able to help us find the perfect houst for our family for years to come She is incredibly proactive, resourceful, and is very well connected. I'd definitely recommend her for buying a house in Marin!
