Ratings & Reviews

Sold a Single Family home in Edgewood park, Redwood City CA

I guess I'll find out how many words I can write as I begin to write about the virtues of Phil Watson and his team at the Watson Marshall Group. I recommended that my partner, Susan interview him even though she had a long standing relationship with a real estate agent in her neighborhood. The difference in knowledge, relationships and professionalism was immediately apparent after the first three hour conversation with Phil. He and his team bring all of the tools of the real estate trade with them along with the attributes they do not teach in the class room..empathy, communication skills, confidence.
Phil made strong recommendations to us throughout the home selling experience including, staging recommendations, the specific day to list the home on and what to do to make the home show perfectly. All along he was ever present whenever we called with a question or comment...He is incredibly gracious & thoughtful
Her home sold within 2 days of the time the sign went in the ground

Sold a Single Family home in San Carlos, CA

Phil was literally the best agent I could have asked for. As someone who knew absolutely zero about selling a home he made the whole process seamless. He took the reins for the entire process and all I had to was sign papers. My house needed some work before it could be sold and Phil managed the entire project from painting, to landscaping, to trash removal and so much more. All things that in my busy schedule I had no time to manage. I highly recommend Phil as he is not only amazingly professional and kind but he also has the expertise for all of the little things you wouldn't even thin about. He is also a perfectionist in the best possible way and leaves no stone unturned which is what you need when selling a home and wanting to receive the best value on the market. Highly recommended!

Bought and sold a Single Family home in San Mateo

Phil has represented us for 25 years, as both listing agent and selling agent, and we just completed our 5th transaction with him. He skillfully navigates in both seller's markets and buyer's markets, and keeps up on current market trends. He has an eye for what improvements should be made to your home to realize the highest sale price, and has a great team who can get those improvements done. Our last home sold in 4 days, at well above the listing price. We told him what we were looking for in our next home, and he found us just what we were looking for. Phil is extremely knowledgeable in all aspects of San Mateo County real estate, and we recommend him, with our highest regard.

Sold Single Family home in Southwest Hillsdale, San Mateo

In all regards, Phil Watson is a superb real estate professional, who is extraordinarily accomplished and knowledgeable in all aspects of the local r/e market. From our research and our first interview to decide which r/e firm and agent to engage to sell our home of 30 years, it was obvious Phil and his firm were the best to successfully position our home to sell quickly and at top market price. With Phil's customized plan of improvements and marketing, and his dedication to personally managing the process, our home sold within days and above list price in a very challenging market. Warm, considerate and with well thought out advice Phil is truly a dedicated professional with uncompromising integrity, who is top in his field and committed to achieving the best results for his clients. We have the highest respect and admiration for Phil, and enthusiastically recommend him and his dedicated team.
