Testimonials

Suzanne has been helping my husband and me buy and sell property for 36 years, including four single family homes and one condo. She has helped other families members too. When we refer our friends to her, we always tell them to be ready, because she will find them their dream house faster than they think! Then she will help you structure a deal that is sure to be accepted, using her decades of experience and knowledge. Suzanne is professional and very personable. She keeps on top of all the details and keeps the communication flowing between all the parties as a deal progresses. She has helped me envision the repairs, remodels and improvements that help make a new home feel like my own. Suzanne is extremely responsive - we've had a few late night phone calls, early morning signings and front porch pick-ups of documents that she accommodates with a willing smile. I can't imagine buying or selling real estate without her. We trust her judgment as much as we trust each other. Suzanne comes highly recommended by us!

Suzanne has helped me through four house purchases in San Francisco (1) and Marin (3). Most recently she has twice found homes that were about to come on the market. In both cases we were the first buyer in, and able to make an offer that got us the property without having a bidding war. In the past, she helped me negotiate with difficult sellers and find a way to close deals that both parties were satisfied with. She is organized, responsive and has unique skills at finding homes before they go on the market. I always feel as though I am getting the best help and support possible to find, research, price and buy houses.

In July 2018, Suzanne sold 10683 Minnesota Avenue, Penngrove, CA 94951 in which I held a 50% interest. This was a complex transaction that Suzanne handled with the highest level of professionalism. In addition, I referred my friend and his wife to Suzanne. She sold their condo at 205 Lucky Drive, Corte Madera, CA this past Spring of 2019 at a price that was above the average in their condo complex. My friend and his wife thanked me profusely for the referral to Suzanne after the condo was sold.

I have worked with Suzanne on a number of home purchase as well as sales over the years. She is a very experienced agent, knows the various Marin local markets quite well. She is also resourceful with getting other professionals such as handymen, painters, home inspectors, surveyors etc to assist as the occasion may call for. She is also an excellent negotiator when it comes down to making the deal happen. Always attentive and respectful to all parties, but I am also glad she is representing me whether I have been the buyer or the seller.

Wonderful experience ! Suzanne is a pleasure to deal with. She is highly intelligent, with decades of professional experience and success. She is very likable, has excellent "people skills", beautiful manners, is a born problem solver and negotiator, and puts everything into her work. Suzanne found and sold us a house in 1977 (12 Old Landing Road, Tiburon) and sold another house for me in 2002. Her friendly personality and business acumen made it all a pleasure for us. We recommend Suzanne Shelhart with no reservations whatever.

How lucky I was to find you! There are no words to tell you how much I appreciate all you did--way above and beyond and always with a smile, with enthusiasm and a thorough knowledge of your profession! From the first time we met, I just knew I could trust you, and that I could feel secure following your advice and consul. As I sit here trying to digest the past few months, I feel blessed to have had the opportunity of working with a real "pro".

You will get what you want for the very best price when you work with Suzanne. She is a dynamo and provides full and excellent service from finding the house to closing the deal. Anyone who works with Suzanne will never work with any other agent again and will recommend her to their friends as the best agent ever!

We love our new home so much. Our deepest gratitude for all you did to make our dream come true. You handled everything with such confidence and expertise and you even made the nerve-racking process fun.

Suzanne helped us sell our old home quickly and with solid advice, realistic pricing, help with staging and getting the buyer to remove contingencies quickly. She was very helpful with handling the numerous details, open houses and meetings with inspectors.

Nicely done, Suzanne! Congratulations. Many thanks for your patience, endurance, professionalism and sage advice. All are necessary for transactions like this and we very much appreciate that you have all of these and a good head for deals. It is always good to have the Shelhart Factor on our side. Thank you again.
