“Marc is amazing! We have worked with him four times in total (three times to buy homes and most recently to sell our home ). He is knowledgeable, patient, super flexible, and communication was great. He priced our home appropriately and we received multiple offers. He was able to negotiate with the buyers agents to get us the selling price we were hoping for even in this tough market. Amazing experience overall and we plan to work with Marc again when the time arises.”

“My partner and I recently worked with Marc (and his partner Mark) to buy our first home in San Francisco, and we couldn't be happier! From the start, Marc was extremely responsive to our questions and concerns, always available via email, text, and phone and willing to make time for last-minute meetings and viewings. He went above and beyond to send us regular email updates with new options and always had our best interests in mind, working tirelessly to find the perfect home for us. Overall, we highly recommend Marc for anyone looking to buy or sell a property. He's extremely knowledgeable, responsive, and always has his clients' best interests in mind. Thanks again Marc for all your hard work!”

“Marc is simply the best. His experience, knowledge, advice and support through our selling process was invaluable! There was never a time he wasn’t available whenever we had a question or needed advice. He guided us through the process and his advice allows us to maximize the value of our property. We were so lucky to have him as our realtor and wouldn’t use anyone else!!”

“Buying your first home in the Bay Area is really stressful, and I feel like no matter what I write here, we can’t say enough great things about Marc. We were somewhat clueless when we started with the home buying process and we were lucky to have Marc help us. He gave us excellent guidance, answered every question, and explained every form and every part of the process very clearly, and with compassion. As a result of that we felt confident that we were making right decisions all along, and we ended up buying a place that we are now proud to call our home. We could not recommend Marc enough to anyone looking for some peace of mind when buying or selling a home. He is an absolute gem and you will be glad you chose him to help you with your transaction.”

“My fiancé and I have nothing but great things to say about Marc. We were first time homebuyers who thought that buying a home in San Francisco was unachievable. Marc laid out a homeownership path for us, and was with us every step of the way, from educating us in detail on all the different types of home disclosures to making a compelling bid, and finally the last steps of escrow. He was exceptionally trustworthy, reliable and communicative, whether it was via text, email phone or face-to-face meeting. If we ever needed his feedback or thoughts, he always made himself available for a chat. If we ever needed to see a house on short notice, he always found a way for us to see it. Additionally, we trusted Marc to help us make the right decisions, especially when it came to offer price and which properties we should pursue. There were multiple instances where Marc guided us not to over-bid on a property that would have trouble appraising, or wasted time bidding on a property that we had little chance of getting. We had two-way dialogue throughout the way and sought his feedback to ensure we were making the right decisions for us while also balancing the need to make a winnable bid in this ultra competitive market. Never in our wildest dreams did we ever think we could own a single family home in San Francisco, and we wouldn’t be living in our house today if it weren’t for Marc’s guidance and great attitude! In the end, Marc was more than just our agent, but an overall great guy and friend!”

“Marc is a consummate real estate professional. He marketed our property masterfully, kept all selling and closing activities on track, and successfully managed the sale to tight timelines. I would do business with Marc anytime.”

“Marc and the Core7 team did a phenomenal job selling our home in Pacifica. Selling a home is listed as one of the most stressful life events a person or family can go through, and I can't say enough nice things about how smoothly this all went for us. Marc, his family and his team did everything (and I mean everything) to ensure we received top dollar for our home and that it was as painless as possible for us. He was patient, explained everything in great detail, provided us with helpful leave behinds, and was thorough in all the details. His team responded at all hours of the day and no question was too small or silly. He & his wife even watered the grass on multiple occasions to make sure the home looked great for the showings. Marc is the kind of person who will vacuum your floor himself before a showing-- he's that invested in your success. His stager, Eddie and the vendors he brought in to do work on our home pre-sale, were great to work with and reasonably priced. Marc did a lot of leg work and always provided us with lots of cost options too. We had a last minute near-disaster with one of the repairs, and Marc not only got multiple estimates, but he made it as painless for us as possible (emotionally & financially) as he understood what an unexpected cost it was for us. I cannot even compare the level of service he and his team provided to the service we received when we initially bought our home many years ago. This team is incredibly professional, responsive, caring, and it's clear they love what they do. Thank you Marc, we truly felt supported throughout this whole process. I highly, highly recommend Core7 to anyone who is interested in selling or buying a home in the Bay Area.”

“Marc made our first home buying experience so transparent and communicative that we would highly recommend him for any of your real estate needs. I truly enjoyed the clear and constant communication that Marc provided. Having such a knowledgeable agent really made the difference and we couldn't have had asked for anything more. Thank you so much Marc!!”

“Marc is a true professional. He was referred to us by one of our good friends. He was extremely thorough, conscientious, and honest with us throughout the entire buying process. He made us feel very comfortable and communicated regularly on all pertinent information. We are so happy we worked with Marc in buying our first home in the Bay Area. We will definitely be working with him in the future!”

“Marc helped make me a very happy and proud new first time homeowner in San Francisco. I've known him for years and knew his professionalism, honesty, and attentiveness would make purchasing a home with his help a very smooth process. His extensive understanding of the market was necessary to close the deal, especially here in San Francisco. There are things I don't think other realtors would have the insight on like he does. You'll need Marc on your side to get that dream house you've always wanted! He had creative ideas on how my offer would stand out on top among 40 other ones (yes, 40 other offers!), gave me solid advice on all aspects, walked me through every step of the way and made me feel comfortable and confident when pulling the trigger to make an offer. Highly recommend this guy and have to say you won't go wrong with him as your realtor. Marc is the man!”

Bought a Single Family home in 2016 in Ingleside heights, San francisco, CA.

“I loved working with Mary! For nearly 2 decades I have been convinced that I would never be able to buy in San Francisco and she proved me wrong in the best way possible. She knows the ins-and-outs of San Francisco Real Estate, and can clearly explain the complex process to the layman (me). Mary pays close attention to wish lists, and would send me listings that aligned with my wishes, along with some pleasant surprises that I would not have found on my own (Zillow-searching). Throughout my house search she was laser-focused on my best interests. The house she helped me buy is simply perfect for me, under her watchful eye escrow closed on-time and without surprises, and I do not believe that anyone else could've made it happen.”

“Mary was absolutely amazing in helping us find a local duplex despite a tight budget and a long list of requirements. She always made herself available for showings, explained each step of the home buying process, and walked us through creative ways to expand on our investment down the line (e.g condo conversion). Her local expertise helped us ensure our very first offer was accepted!”

“I can't say enough good things about Mary! Being a first-time homebuyer, I was completely lost and had no idea where to begin. But Mary was there for me every step of the way, and say she was an absolute godsend. She took the time to understand exactly what I was looking for, and her guidance and support throughout the entire process made me feel confident in my decisions. Her wealth of knowledge and sharp insights were incredibly impressive, and she always had expert advice on the properties we looked at. But what really blew me away was how patient and responsive she was and her amazing negotiation skills. Thanks to her, we were able to secure a great home that we love. She truly went above and beyond to find a home that checked off all my unique criteria. I'm very grateful for Mary's help, and I would recommend her to anyone without hesitation!”

“My partner and I were so grateful to work with Mary through our first home buying process. She demonstrated great local knowledge; spot-on pricing analysis; fast, proactive communication with us and with sellers; and moreover, took the time to help us understand the nuances of buying a first home in such a complicated, competitive market over more than a year's time. She kept our spirits up through our first losses and moved quickly and deftly to get in an offer on the home we eventually won. After closing, she continues to offer advice and referrals. We will definitely use Mary again when it comes time for us to sell.”

Bought a Condo home in 2022 in Haight, San francisco, CA.

“Mary is a pro with great instincts and industry contacts. When we sold our condominium in the Mission District, it hadn’t been updated in 20 years and needed some work to prepare it for sale. This was going to be difficult since we were living out of state, but Mary hooked us up with great contractors and oversaw the renovation and staging. She provided sound advice on where to best spend our budget, and the place looked fantastic when all the work was done. Mary’s savvy really came into play while marketing the property and advising us on the offers she was seeing. She and her team made the whole process of working together from a distance seamless. What could have been a very difficult experience was a joy, thanks to Mary.”
