Throughout the entire process—from preparing the house to inspections, from open house outcomes to receiving offers—Margot ensured we were always well-informed. Her kindness and genuine concern for our needs went above and beyond, making us feel truly supported and valued. Ultimately, we received multiple offers exceeding our expectations!

Margot was an exceptional realtor and an absolute pleasure to work with every step of the process of selling our Oakland home. She thought of so many details and special touches that added to making our home more attractive and a breeze to sell. Margot ensured that even during a difficult market, we received multiple offers and were able to sell on schedule for over the asking price. Margot and the team at Grubb were always available to answer our questions along the way, and proactively handled issues as they came up. Margot’s attention to detail, and clear passion for presenting our home even more wonderfully than we could have imagined, made us feel exceptionally fortunate to have her as our realtor. We could not recommend Margot Martin enough if you are looking for someone to sell your home.

Margot gave us exceptional service. She really worked to understand what we were looking for in terms of property for our family and helped guide us through the process. She was also super knowledgeable about our local area and was able to be honest with us about trends and expectations. She was thorough and responsive, and most of all she was real with us. Margot helped ameliorate a lot of the anxiety of the home buying experience with her care and diligence. We ended up with a purchase that really felt right. We will definitely be coming back to her as our go-to real estate expert.

Margot was amazing! She helped us every step of the way in selling our home. Updating, pricing, timing - everything. And even in a tricky economic climate, she was able to help us sell our home for over asking. She's the best!

We had a fantastic experience working with Margot, on both the buy and sell sides. She is professional, knowledgeable, flexible, always accessible, and has a great eye for design. When we ran into some water leak issues with our new home, Margot went above and beyond helping us with plumbing services and home warranty claims. We would 100% recommend using her!

Margo and Liat did a fantastic job selling my house in Oakland. They delivered 100% on time in minor repairs, arranging the stager, setting up the marketing and having the open houses. Margo’s communication was great and I felt well informed!

When we bought our Oakland home we had a clear 10-year plan for holding the home and exiting. An opportunity presented itself that required us to exit 4 years early. We did not have a plan for that. Fortunately, Margot did! Margot did an expert job of listening to us and really understanding our needs, our fears, and our hopes. She then took what she heard from us and helped us to align those needs, fears, and hopes with the realities of the market at that time. Some of it was hard to hear and some of the strategies that were presented took a lot of trust from us to bet on board with, but we hired Margot because we trust her perspectives and advice, so we went with it, Ultimately, Margot helped shape us into the right sellers to support her in the truly hard work of preparing, staging, pricing, marketing, holding open houses, and supporting the seemingly endless paperwork parts of the process. Margot got our home ready, and sold in full alignment with our agreements and kept us feeling so well-cared for and well-advised through the whole thing. It's important to share this concisely: Margot is a seasoned professional. We did not hire her to say only yes and to make sure that we're always feeling great. We hired her to lead our team to a successful real estate trade. She did that AND kept us feeling well-cared for even when she had to tell us no or correct an off expectation.

Margot Martin helped sell the house next-door to mine for well over, asking, and will be the realtor that we use when we're ready to sell our house. She has been so helpful over the past few years, recommending local vendors: roofer, plumber, and tree trimming services etc. - I highly recommend Margot as your local real estate agent!

Margot was such a pleasure to work with from start to finish. We left northern california and literally left the keys for Margot and the Grubb team, who owned the entire process to spruce up and prepare the house for the market a few weeks later. Margot demonstrated excellent project management and client relationship skills to the point that we never wavered in our confidence in her ability to get the house ready in a softening and more competitive market! Lastly, Margot skills working with prospective clients and her overall business development skills were on display to the point that we were able to get multiple offers on our property - kudos! We would 100% recommend Margot to any homeowner looking to get the best price possible for their residence.
