Seller
‟Madelaine is such a go-getter! She really does the best for you! We have used her twice in the past fifteen years to sell houses, and she's been great. She definitely goes above and beyond what you would expect of anyone!!! Highly recommend.”

Venice

Seller
‟Madelaine sold my Venice condo in the middle of the pandemic despite the relatively soft market in Venice. She worked incredibly hard, got brilliant photos, did open houses, endless showings, and was able to find potential tenants AND a buyer, allowing me options and the ability to negotiate from a position of power. Madelaine handled the back-and- forth with the buyer and his agent brilliantly and was able to get them to raise their initial offer to $35,000 over the asking price, and “as-is” which ensured a super smooth escrow (making all our lives easier). Madelaine did an absolutely incredible job. I am so grateful and will be listing another property with her soon. Thank you so much Madelaine” Read More ▾

Nathalie D.

Seller
‟We couldn’t have sold our house without Madelaine! Her knowledge in real estate in general and the specifics of Mar Vista was a huge asset. She helped us understand each phase of the sale, supported us to adapt to the new market, advised us on how to repair our house before the sale even putting us in contact with contractors we could trust. I reco mmend Madelaine to anyone, whatever the size or the state of their property. She thinks out of the box, she’s incredibly nice, funny and soon you’ll call her Maddie, your Rock’n Roll Real Estate Agent. From the bottom of my heart, thank you for all you did. We tried to sell our house before but only you could do it. You’re simply the best!!” Read More ▾

Taylor Walker

Buyer
‟I mean where do I start? From start to finish Madelaine controlled my transaction with the upmost professionalism and diligence. Always had my back in negotiations and made sure I got the highest price for my home. I literally told her the price I wanted and she coached me on the best strategy to get to that price and she overdelivered because we g ot OVER ASKING!!! There were many times that I was going to let my ego get in the way of making the deal close but time and time again she was there to make sure we stayed the course and got the deal done. On top of that, she was very available when it came to helping to pick out finishes, giving constructive feedback on improvements on the home (getting it ready for sell), and most importantly helping out with the staging, which turned out to be amazing. Went above and beyond the scope of her work and it’s not even a question that I will be using her to sell all of my houses moving forward” Read More ▾

Philippe Marcelis

Buyer
‟When time to list my property in 2008, I choose you professional services and listed with you among many other local realtors for no specific reason. Fast forward to December 2019, I recon acted you with specificity to have a pocket listing with no area MLS posting for the sale of my house in Mar Vista with my understanding that it would limit the pool of potential buyer's. Among the many local agents I contacted, you were the only one to accept the challenge of Buyer pool limitation of a pocket listing. You acted with diligence, determination and within a month brought numerous potential Buyer's, from witch one became the buyer of my 32 year home in Mar Vista. I appreciate your constant efforts and advice on my relocation move” Read More ▾

She's easy to talk to and will respond to all my inquiries in a timely manner. She also has a good knowledge of the area where I was searching. This was my first house so I had a LOT of questions, and she always had the answer. She understands the buyer's needs and doesn't just push random listings. Found my house in less than 2 months!!

Stevek40

Seller
‟We worked together to sell our house and a condo, and to buy a condo. We decided to not sell-buy, but Madeline did a lot of work in the work that we did do. That included lots of detail work on two different condos we almost bought. She worked closely with me to rework the condo - and it basically was sold the instant it was listed. We had 8 off ers in 3 days, and were able to exceed our list price by a nice margin. And then stayed very close on the escrow detail and we closed right on time on a fast escrow. I would definitely work with Madeline again” Read More ▾

We had a tight budget but we dug through many houses condos and town homes all over the westside, she had great ideas on how to spruce up an y place we went into but respected our wishes and understood when somewhere wasn't just right.

‟Madelaine was my Ace card! Luck of the Draw! I put my house on the market in the worst of times, March 2010. I sent an email out to various agents advertising their business in our neighborhood, my statement was bold and to the point! Madelaine got the call and we never looked back! The house went off the market in April and we moved the 1st week o f June, what a ride! Madelaine's experience was at the top of the list and her up close and personal touch was at her side, and her resources were unlimited. She is exceptionally realistic and down to earth, a 24-7 Queen of Hearts! My only regret is that “Thank You” is not enough. On a scale of 1to10 on recommendation, she is definitely a 10” Read More ▾

I especially appreciated your kindness in driving me around to look at the condos and the fact that you were always available to answer questions for Neil and I. Since Neil was a first time buyer, he had plenty of questions. Finally, I most appreciated your candor.
