Marlene went above and beyond what a typical agent would do for a client. She is an excellent communicator and cares deeply. She listed my home and we received several offers within weeks. She evaluated each offer assessing risk and ability to close. I would Recomend her to anyone and will Continue to use Marlene for all my teal estate needs.

Management
There are few people who truly go above and beyond reasonable expectations and Marlene is one of them. She's a busy person, but never too busy to answer a call/text/email quickly. Every real estate transaction hits some snags, and Marlene knew how to handle everything the right way, which was a clear display of her many years of experience. I still feel like I owe her for the hard work she did even though she earned a commission on the deal. I would recommend her to my own family, let alone anyone else reading this. My wife and I are forever grateful for her service and will most definitely reach out to her for the next transaction. Thank you Marlene!!

Marlene was amazing in helping us find the right home. We were looking slowly and checking out homes that piqued our interest one or two at a time. Once we found our perfect forever home, she made the process so easy. She could easily tell us a timeline of what was coming and what to expect throughout the escrow process. Marlene is calm and very good at giving reassuring words as the stressful process continues.

Marlene knew how to work with people and show them exactly what they were looking for in a house. She showed them what they needed and were looking for.

She sold our house in two weeks and got more money then we expected. The open house was great and a lot of people went through the first time.

Marlene is very professional and understands Real Estate (How to sell) and is excellent in her job. She works very well with people.

i would recommend her for any one interested in selling theilr house.

We needed to sell a rental property so we hired Marlene Waterhouse and her team as they came highly recommended. Her expertise was evident … not only did they help our tenant find new a new place to rent, Marlene helped determine what repairs and upgrades would be needed to insure a quick sale. Taking her advice enabled us to sell our property with minimal down time - allowing us very little out-of-pocket expenses - PLUS the property sold for more than asking! The fact that she was always available to answer any questions was truly appreciated. I would use her again.

We had an absolutely wonderful time working with Marlene on finding our new home in Orange County. From her daily housing snapshots, to her extensive knowledge of the areas we were looking in, Marlene made house hunting quite enjoyable for us as we were living in the San Francisco area at the time. She always responded promptly to our calls, emails, texts and we felt she really had our best interest at heart and fought for us to get our dream home. Her professionalism, industry knowledge and experience, and above all, her wonderfully pleasant and warm demeanor helped us stay stress-free while embarking on this new chapter in our lives.

I met Marlene a couple of years ago and while I knew she was a realtor, I had no idea how much of an asset she was to the home buying process until we purchased our home. Marlene goes above and beyond. Not only was Marlene and her team patient during the process of house hunting, she was phenomenal during the escrow phase. I never imagined buying a home would be so overwhelming. Marlene had all the resources we needed and provided a lot of support during the process. We have quite a few realtors in our circle of friends and I am so happy we chose Marlene, her and her team will take great care of you, you will not be disappointed.

RETIRED HIGH SCHOOL PRINCIPAL
i have done business with several brokers in the past and I have never been as happy as when I had the pleasure of meeting Marlene Waterhouse.
I was in a difficult and stressful situation. I was involved in a 1031 exchange where I had sold an apartment building in West L.A. and had 45 days to find a replacement property. The previous realtor I worked with had given me the address of 7 properties, told me to go and take a look from the outside and asked me to call him back if I found anything I liked and wanted him to write an offer!
Nothing met my qualifications and I was getting pretty desperate.
By chance, I saw Marlene's company advertised on the Internet. I explained my situation to her. She immediately explained to the clients she was working with that she had a situation that required immediate attention. She didn't waste any
time, and after finding out what my requirement were, she started looking for a lot of properties within my price range.
Marlene had a lot of patience with me and constantly reassured me that we would find just what I wanted. She personally took me around, showed me several houses and condos and before the deadline, managed to find me 2 beautiful properties and write offers that were accepted.
I consider Marlene highly professional, patient and sweet. On a scale of 1to 10, she rates 100!

Truly enjoyed working with Marlene on the purchase of my property in south San Clemente. It was a probate//short sale situation so it was rather complicated compared to a normal purchase transaction. Marlene was very communicative and did a solid job keeping the process on track. I would certainly recommend her. - Peter Schram, SVP - US Bank Home Mortgage
