Testimonials

Michelle is a phenomenal real estate agent. For one, our condo sale in Corte Madera went 19.8% over asking price with 4 offers in 8 days. Michelle's networking (after the listing fell out of escrow) enabled our good fortune to become aware of our new home in Strawberry. She really helped facilitate a great price. In both cases, Michelle was diligent and thorough. She stayed on several details beyond the close of escrow and was incredibly helpful throughout the entire process. We highly recommend her!

My home hadn’t been updated and Michelle knew just what updating aspects would make the biggest difference to attract a good buyer pool and have it stand against the tide of a major Special Assessment in my condo complex. The MLS listing and property website were beautifully done and I received my asking price, which was $50,000 higher than the the last 3 comparable units sold within the previous 6 months. I was an out of town owner and Michelle handled it all beautifully!

Michelle's knowledge and experience in Southern Marin was invaluable and she always made us feel as if we were her only clients. - She consistently exceeded our expectations.

When you boil it all down, buying and selling is about the results - and Michelle will deliver every time.

I bought one home and sold two homes with Michelle in the last 24 months - both sold homes, one in Mill Valley and the other in Tiburon, set new records for highest priced sales for their respective property type.

You can find many agents in Marin that know the area, have sold several homes, etc - but there are very few that can get the results Michelle has consistently delivered. I could not have been any happier with the service provided by Michelle, she's clearly one of the top professionals in the region - the results speak for themselves.

Michelle has been my agent when buying a condo in Corte Madera and selling a townhome in Mill Valley. She was a complete joy to work with. We had some unexpected situations arise that ended in an escrow fall out. She was completely calm, respectful, reassuring, and realistic about the outcome all at once.  She quickly showed me another property, which I fell in love with immediately. She crafted an offer that was accepted the next day and we escrow closed in less than 2 weeks. Without her time, energy and dedication, I wouldn't have ended up where I did.         

On my townhome, we received 9 offers and the sale went 12% over asking price. Michelle created a beautiful and professional website for the property with her marketing talents and photography & staging suggestions. She guided me through difficult contracts, and has very good agent & contractor relationships. You will be in good hands with Michelle. I wouldn't hesitate for a second to recommend her!

We were out of town clients with an income property needing serious help. Michelle and her resources turned our property into a cream puff that netted us 17% more than we expected.

I have purchased 5 homes in the last 14 years and worked with many real estate brokers in 4 states. I am proud to say that Michelle Klurstein is the most thorough thoughtful person I have had the pleasure to work with.

John Satterfield, Station Manager KPIX Ch. 5 San Francisco

After working with another agent and having very few showings in 3 months, Michelle came in with a necessary "to do" list to get the property sold quickly. I followed all her suggestions and I received an offer the very first day of marketing. Michelle's knowledge, personable style and marketing sense made this one of the easiest transactions I've been associated with...and all this in an extremely tough real estate market.

Michelle is a great negotiator and the seller accepted our offer without hesitation. She has been a helpful resource for many contacts in Marin that we needed even beyond the close of escrow. We appreciated Michelle's professionalism and it has been a great pleasure working with her.

Elizabeth F. Mooney, CFA, CPA, Analyst, Capital Group Companies

As a single woman purchasing a home on my own, Michelle was the perfect choice. She moved quickly on my needs, understood my price point, and was by my side each step of the process.

Kimberley Jewell, Global Knowledge Management, Price, Waterhouse, Coopers

We met and agreed on improvements necessary. Michelle prepared a timeline, detail of improvements, cost estimate, arranged all contractors, stuck to the plan and knew what to do to showcase the property in its highest light. The pics, MLS description and website drew multiple offers in 8 days at a record sales price.

A A, Manager, Product & Customer Strategy, The Gap

I was truly impressed with the way you handled the very complicated purchase of my daughter's house; as well as your insights, suggestions and willingness to take and return calls at all hours with many time zones, people, owners, lenders,  that ultimately had to get involved; and your good nature through it all.
