Denise was attentive and responsive. She quickly learned what worked for us and more importantly, what didn't. She was able to filter the list of properties in the search to match what we would need. Quite often she would find out a property was coming on the market before we saw it and she'd send us a heads up. A definite pleasure to work with!

I feel very good about working - and recommending Denise Montalvo. It is of course a cliché, but I don't normally write reviews, but I do feel that she went many extra miles to make my house sale a good one, and one that got me the best value for my home, so I am writing this one.

She was recommended to me by a friend of a friend, so I was not sure how much I could trust the recommendation at first. But I had been talking to several other realtors also, and had had two give me estimates on the house along with recommendations. Hers was inline with the other two, but she spent quite a bit of time with me from the start and she suggested several things to do that could make it more attractive and more valuable. This was long before I had made the decision to use her as my realtor.

From the start, I felt that she understood my needs and reservations around selling my home of 20 years. And I felt no pressure to sell or list with her. But once I made the decision to sell, it was actually pretty clear who would be the best, and it was the correct choice as I ended up selling for quite a bi more than I was expecting at the start.

From the start, things went smoothly and it was surprisingly low stress, which was a surprise to me. At every turn, she was there to explain what was going on and what was needed, and it seemed to me, pretty much did almost all of the work. From pictures to inspections to arranging a rent back agreement. I just had to sign things.

I would certainly work with Denise again, and would recommend her to my friends and family.

Denise is great. She is very patient, thorough, and knowledgeable. She was always communicating with us and we really appreciated her help in our home buying process. We feel really fortunate that we found her as our realtor.

Denise is very easy to work with as well as very detailed oriented. She worked hard in a very difficult climate to market and successfully sold my condo. I knew that she had my best interests at heart when it came to working with the buyer and the buyer's agent. I would unequivocally recommend Denise to anyone looking to buy or sell property

We have been working with Denise for a couple of years. She has represented us as sellers and buyers on several properties. Denise is always professional and we trusted her to represent our best interests. Denise is always accessible and available at all transaction levels, from beginning to end.

Denise Montalvo paid impeccable attention to all my questions and needs and went way over and above the call of duty. She thinks of all the possibilities and presents information in a very easily understood fashion. Denise is creative in many ways, and I always look forward to seeing her. She is very kind, thoughtful, generous and knowledgeable and she always goes the extra mile. She gets the highest marks for customer service, knowledge and in every way conceivable she is a superstar in my mind!

If you are looking for a knowledgeable and honest realtor then contact Denise Montalvo for all your real estate needs. I highly recommend her.

Denise Montalvo has made my transition from Arizona back to Northern
California a very easy one. Moving is stressful enough, but at least
Denise made finding a home as painless as possible. She handled
the transaction perfectly.

I would recommend Denise Montalvo to anyone needing an
agent to buy or sell a home. She will take care of you like
you were her only client going beyond what is expected.

I only wish that she could sell my house in Arizona, too!

Denise is the best agent in the world. She helped me in a difficult situation and the result was great. I would highly recommend her to anyone buying or selling. She is number one in my book.

I approached Denise through the internet due to my living over 600 miles away from the location of the property which I was selling. She contacted me very quickly, and helped reassure me of her expertise in the local market (for which I had to rely on her expertise, since I had not been in the area in over 11 years). Having felt that her experience and knowledge for the market was quite good, I agreed to have her represent me as her agent. Denise was amazing, and did everything while keeping me informed of progress. She would present options and have me make the decisions in a straightforward and professional manner. Her candor, and enthusiasm for ensuring a timely sale helped make the deal a reality in a market that is somewhat soft for non-renovated homes. I greatly appreciated her help, and wish her all the best in the future.

Denise Mentalvo is the type of realtor who will always go the last mile for her clients.
Denise's style is friendly and professional. She stays current in Realty issues and has great local knowledge. She also has a strong base of referral business partners - carpet cleaners, storage, inspectors, etc. She made selling and buying properties a pleasure and a "no brainer".

My wife and I have worked with Denise Montalvo for over a year. We have been looking for a house in Marin. From the beginning we enjoyed working with Denise. She took the time to listen and understand what we were looking for and we feel she really got it. I always felt she had thorough knowledge of her market and she was honest and open in her communication. Denise has always been patient with us as we changed directions and looked at different options. We truly appreciated that. When we decided to sell our house in San Francisco we did not hesitate to ask Denise to help us. She was honest in telling us that SF was not her area of expertise, but she steered us in the right direction. Because of our trust in her, we insisted she remained involved in the process nevertheless. She did not disappoint. We turned to her many times throughout the process and she helped us immensely with her knowledge, expertise and honest opinions. We would not hesitate to recommend Denise as your agent regardless of if you are looking to buy or sell.

Denise went above and beyond what any agent has done for me before. I’ve bought and sold properties before, but Denise was the first agent to actually hold my hand through the entire process. She has numerous contacts she can recommend for any services you need. She has extensive knowledge of Marin county and how processes and procedures work in CA. She understood what I was trying to accomplish with my 1031 exchange. She’s very patient and well respected. I’d recommend her to my friends and family without hesitation.

After helping us with a sale of a property, Denise helped us with a purchase of another. We had all the confidence and trust in Denise and she always had our best interests in mind during both processes.

Denise was my best advocate! She always went the extra mile to ensure a smooth procedure! She is outstanding!!!

She is the best!!!

Denise will always have your best interest in the forefront!

Denise is a very caring, honest, with a good approach of needed improvements to sell my house. I recommend Denise Montalvo to anyone who is selling or buying house, property. Denise has excellent people skills.

Denise was extremely attentive to our needs and requirements, which were many and detailed. This left us with fewer-than-normal options, but Denise balanced those criteria with aplomb.

At one point we thought we might not be able to find the right property, but Denise did it -- with one that wasn't even open to the larger market. And it's perfect for us.

Denise did a fabulous job. She's incredibly hard-working, always available, and very friendly.

We started our home search end of November 2017 with very little hope to find anything but Denise found us exactly what we wanted and we moved in December 2017. I am not sure I can describe what happened because it was such a wonderful dream and when we woke up from it we were in our new home celebrating 2018. Denise is serious, knowledgeable and most importantly knows everything about her job and pays attention to every little detail. I don't think this review is enough to thank you for the super job you did and I hope readers will take note and hopefully get to experience the wonderful service you provided us.
