Marlene listed and sold my condo within days at the full asking price. She then helped with the purchase of my next home and could not have done a better job. Marlene was great in both cases, selling my condo at full price and negotiating a reduced price on my purchase Marlene was available and responsive. She dealt with every issue I had, quickly and effectively. She is great!
