About

I’m a top-producing Realtor and Certified Global Luxury Specialist, as well as a long-term resident of Marin. In 2023, I received the Marin County Agent of the Year award from Rate My Agent for my client satisfaction.
When I'm not selling real estate, I love to spend time running the trails of Marin and taking pictures along the way. I'm known as the "Realtor on the Move – Keeping Pace with the Market." I keep up with the latest trends and developments in the area so that I can provide you with the most up-to-date information and guidance.
Real estate is about more than just finding the perfect home; it's also about navigating the complex market and making informed decisions along the way. Selling real estate in a competitive market demands skill and stamina—qualities I bring to every transaction. I leverage my experience to ensure a successful outcome, whether you're buying, selling, or investing.

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 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.
