I became a first time homeowner because of Mari Wines. She made this process very easy for me. In fact, I am still in shock at how things happened and how quickly they happened. I feel that my experience should be something every homeowner gets to experience. Mari is knowledgeable, kind, trustworthy, supportive, and a handful of other great qualities. I learned a lot from Mari during this process. I appreciate her expertise, consistency, punctuality, and kindness. My new home in Concord, CA would not have been possible if she did not encourage me to see the place. I originally declined to see it because I thought the price was out of my range, however, she assured me that it was possible. A couple days later I got the call that my offer was accepted! As previously stated, I appreciate many qualities about Mari, and In my opinion, she went above and beyond to help this process run smoothly. I highly recommend her for that reason.

Mari Wines is a true professional, a great negotiator, and a better friend that did a wonderful job from start to finish. As first-time homebuyers we anticipated this being the most intimidating and stressful experience of our life, yet Mari made it so easy. She did a great job keeping us informed and helped us understand every detail of the process along the way. We purchased the third house we looked at in Oakley, CA and Mari worked hard to negotiate big money back, despite some seriously stubborn sellers. Thank you, Mari for helping us make the right decision and working meticulously to process everything so quickly. It was a no brainer. We knew when we finally decided to buy, Mari would be the broker for us.

Do yourself a favor, get Mari Wines in your corner! You will not regret it. Mari helped us purchase our dream home in Vallejo, CA and sell our condo in Benicia, CA (in the summer 2020). Mari is so incredibly easy to work with and so helpful throughout the whole process. Mari was able to help us write an incredibly strong (contingent) offer without overlooking any detail! She also has a fantastic eye for staging for killer marketing and to show well in person! Mari was always quick to answer all of our questions and get us information quickly! Mari is a powerhouse and gets the job done! I could not recommend her more! Thank you so much Mari!

If youre buying or selling a home, you need to work with Mari Wines. Shes helped me through three transactions now, and every time shes gone above and beyond. Mari is sharp, professional, and truly understands the market. She protected my interests in ways I hadnt even considered and explained everything clearly along the way. Her pricing strategy initially threw me off, but it worked like magicaEUR"we sold after the first showing! Shes responsive, honest, and delivers real results. I'm usually hands-on with deals, but trusting Mari was the best decision I made. I wont work with anyone else!
