Mary Dresser, Realtor since 1990
Client TestimonialsFind out what some of my happy clients have to say!
The Franklin FamilyThank you for your wonderful services in helping us with the purchase of our lovely home. All your suggestions in the preparation of getting the loan and up to the actual closing were always right on target. We really appreciate that you took the time months after all was done to get us a city rebate on a City tax. It's your care and concern about your buyers that really makes your special. Peter MasonThanks for making what could have been a harrowing experience a real pleasure! I'm so glad I got a house, and a new friend! Doug DrummondMy home continues to get better all the time. I marvel at the good fortune to have had your help!
The Sotkiewicz FamilyRelocating is a difficult enough task... Mary, you came through for us. You earned our loyalty. You did a great job helping us find and purchase a home. We look back at the home-buying process with pleasure. We cannot thank you enough for the quality, professional job you did for us. You give Realtors a good name. Steve and Gigi Benson-Smith(sent to the relocation company) Thank you for putting us in touch with Mary Dresser. She has been an exceptionally rewarding professional element, if not the kingpin, in our lives relocating to the Bay Area. Mary Dresser should be on the top of your list of what a difference the perfect real estate agent can make for someone moving across the country. Not only did Mary help us set our priorities; she encourages us to enjoy our adventure. She took the time to educate us in the different areas of the East Bay which she thought matched our interests and personalities. Mary didn't disappear when the offer was accepted, she guided us through the escrow process translating the bank/buyer language everyone startlingly began speaking save us. Mary's amazing ability to temper our nere ends qualifies her for a Nobel Peace Prize! We are indebted to her, and thank you for bringing us together. From another local RealtorI have just completed two escrows with an outstanding agent at Prudential, Mary Dresser. She was extremely professional, bright and had both the interests of her client and a smooth closing of the transaction in her mind at all times.
Gary and Joyce BjorkHaving relocated a number of times, I know that finding and buying a home can be an arduous, anxious, and frustrating experience, especially if you get tangled up with the wrong realtor. Fortunately, we found the right realtor. I want to thank you, Mary, for your professionalism, hard work, good advice, sensitivity, and patience - all of which made our home buying experience an adventure rather than a nightmare. Thank you for being there for us every step of the way. We have never had a moment of buyer's remorse. We love it every day. You are the best. Gloria PauletichThank you for all your help and effort in the sale of my mother's home. Your professional manner and attention to detail made what is often a difficult process a pleasant experience. I felt comfortable with your honest, straight-forward approach, and I certainly did not hesitate in placing "it all" in your lap. Chris Blair and Alison AdamsThrough my relocation company, I had the good fortune to met Mary Dresser and work with her in finding a home in the East Bay. Right away Mary demonstrated knowledge, patience and understanding. A special house was found and Mary was able to help close the deal through her tactful negotiating style. At this point I knew Mary was an outstanding agent, certainly a cut above the rest. My wife and I then began the search for another home 3 years later. Again Mary was retained to assist in the search. The market was very strong, and finding a quality house in a good neighborhood was a challenge, but finally purchased a wonderful home. Mary again demonstrated patience, professionalism and most importantly the ability to get the deal done on favorable terms for us. Mary listed our original house. Right from the start it was clear she knew the market cold, was right on target with the pricing and was determined to maximize the value for us in the transaction. The ultimate buyer was someone Mary read accurately and suggested would be the best buyer for our house. She was right. And the work she did to ensure the sale was completed was thorough, timely and seemingly routine for her (the good ones make it look easy). I would recommend Mary Dresser as a listing agent without reservation. You will not only get a top Agent, you will also get a real person who cares about her clients. This, after all, is the formula for success. Paul T. Van Slyke"I bought a house. I almost gave up at this endeavor in the Bay Area, but Mary Dresser rocks! (the coolest real estate agent in the world -- everyone should use her if you're looking for property in the Bay Area)."
Reese and VirginiaAs first time homebuyers, we were skittish about the whole process. We interviewed a number of buyer's agents, and you were by far the best fit for us. You were professional, prepared and patient. Our impressions of you proved to be right time and time again. In a market that has the adjective "insane" placed firmly in front of it, you stayed directed and low-key, keeping us sane throughout the process.
Through your familiarity with the area, prices and inventory, you gave us the confidence to buy a house that is perfect for us - in one day and without having to enter a bidding war!
We owe our success story to your excellent attention to detail and market savvy. Not only were you great, but all of the people you referred us to (inspectors, contractors) were great. You gave us excellent advice from day one up to and after the closing. We never expected to have such an easy time of buying a home. We, and our friends, think we really lucked out. Steffi & RobMary has wonderful qualities that make her stand out from the rest of the brokers that we had met previous to her. First, she is a truly a caring person who will work completely within your price range and never make you fell like you need to spend more. She will give you a tour of homes and listen closely to your likes and dislikes. Another amazing quality about Mary is that she will work with you for as long as it takes to find your home, and with no pressure!
Also, Mary is extremely knowledgeable about the East Bay. Mary will help you pinpoint an area that works for you in your price range and with the types of homes you would enjoy. For whatever reason, we were fixated on buying in one area, but found the home we bought by finally considering an area that Mary had been recommending to us all along. Trust her!
Lastly, Mary enjoys sharing her knowledge about homes, especially with first time buyers who may be a bit overwhelmed by foundation information, termite reports, leaks, electrical and plumbing questions. She truly works within your best interest and will candidly share information about a home.
We are fortunate to have come across Mary as our real estate agent. If you happen to find her, you too will enjoy the process of working together with her!
