Annalise helped us in the search for a home in Marin for nearly two years before we even met her. This alone says so much. She answered long-distance questions about the area, and always gave the real deal truth. Annalise knew the ins and outs of every neighborhood, and the feasibility of the crazy market, and shared it all with warmth, kindness, and candor. I flew out from across the country on a four-day trip, and Annalise gave me her all in that time, with long days, many phone calls, and her laptop always out, giving me her all. Our budget was such that she had to get creative, and tried her best to find us the most well-suited neighborhood. Her negotiating skills were tenacious and persistent. But most importantly, I felt like she was a friend, a real person, and a support system in a difficult and stressful time. Annalise brings such loyalty, fight, experience, and humanity to a stressful and crazy experience here in Marin. She takes care of you and doesn't give up. I could t have asked for more in an agent.
