We moved to San Rafael in 2021 and leased a home via Foundation Homes. First off, the house we…read moreleased is maintained really well and does not have significant issues. In cases where we have had minor maintenance issues, their service is prompt and impeccable from initial response to follow up after the work is addressed. I'd like to especially call out Tania and her team who've been nothing but great partners in ensuring their residents are happy in their homes. Anyone looking to lease from Foundation Homes shouldn't think twice.

The number one complaint about people in Real Estate is that they have poor followup, and Mike with…read moreFoundation Homes fits that unfortunate character flaw. I called Mike about a rental in Tiburon, as my husband and I are initially looking for a rental since his firm is moving us to Marin and we will be new to the area. Mike has a property listed that looked interesting to us, and I set up a time to see the property. He sent me the viewing instructions, which were to send the numbers on the lockbox when I arrive at the home, and I would receive the lockbox code. When my husband and I arrived at the home, we texted the numbers on the lockbox, and the automated system kept responding with a message to only send them the info requested. What?? So, we sent the numbers again. Same glitch message. I then called Mike's cell, twice, and got his voice mail. I then texted him to ask for entry help and to let him know about the glitch. He never responded. One day later, and still no response. That is really poor customer service.

We knew it was going to be a challenge to find our next perfect home in Marin, which is why we selected Jeff as our real estate agent.

When we finally found a new home we were excited about, Jeff adeptly facilitated the process through to a successful purchase. We feel incredibly grateful to him for his guidance, honesty, insights, and calm presence during our search and purchase of a home we love. A great sense of humor didn't hurt either!

We would like to strongly recommend Jeff Stirley to anyone seeking to buy a house in Marin County…read more  When we decided to move back to Marin after many years away, we found that the housing market was in an extremely difficult place for buyers, as there were very few houses on the market and when they appeared there was a frenzy of above price offers for all of them.  This was very discouraging.  A bit overwhelmed, a friend suggested that we meet Jeff and consult with him about what we were looking for, what neighborhoods, the limits of our potential funding, etc.   We met with Jeff and immediately felt comfortable with his style and approach.  Jeff suggested that one option would be for hm and his office to write a letter that would be delivered directly to every house in the neighborhoods we were interested in and see what we might be able to do "off-market".  This had the advantage of being more personal with potential sellers and also avoiding the craziness of the open market.  Thankfully, one neighbor responded positively and we were able to purchase a beautiful house in the neighborhood we most desired and were able to do so without the discomfort and uncertainty of an open market bidding war. We could not have been happier with Jeff and his company.  He did a great job, went outside the box and was a pleasure to deal with throughout.

Long and short, we couldn't have been more impressed with the professionalism, market savvy and attention to detail that Mary Kay demonstrated throughout the process of getting our house on the market. Additionally, she was an outstanding collaborator and communicator, coming up with creative solutions, supporting our decisions when appropriate, but also pushing back when needed. In our case, we went from vacated house to first showing in less than 4 weeks and there is no way we could have done it without Mary Kay's guidance and commitment to making it happen. And, once the house was ready to go she did a great job of marketing it and handling all of the negotiations with the eventual buyer. Suffice it to say, whether you're buying or selling, we have no hesitation recommending Mary Kay to anyone out there looking for a great agent.

She was always available, super responsive, and an incredibly valuable co-pilot throughout the whole journey. When it came to preparing our house for sale, as well as our pricing strategy, her team and network added so much value -- ultimately resulting in an incredible offer that was $1.4M over asking. On the flip side, when she helped us buy our new home in Noe Valley, it was a total nail-biter with multiple offers and rounds of negotiation. In the end, we won because of Danielle's long-term relationships and experience. She has her finger on the pulse of the SF market, she'll tell you what she really thinks, and most importantly, she's just a real, authentic person who you genuinely trust to have your back. We couldn't recommend her more.
