Rachel Birnbaum

In the sale of the Vallejo house, everything went better than I could have hoped for. The city had been in the news for going into bankruptcy, and I was worried we'd never get anyone to buy in that climate. However, Rachel did a superlative job marketing the house, and we were very happy that the couple who bought it appreciated its many good features. As for the recent house hunt, I have to give Rachel a lot of credit for being a therapist to me in my dealings with my daughter. (Rachel's father is a psychiatrist). With good humor and lots of excellent advice she kept us going through the arduous process of the short sale, then the realization that the house we'd fallen in love with would need major foundation and other work. She took my daughter and her husband to see countless houses in her local area and also Marin County, until they finally decided on the right one. I have now worked with Rachel in the two roles which prove the mettle of a broker/agent, and she proved herself superior in every way. Rachel is based in Benicia, but is flexible and willing to cover other cities and counties. I trust her completely, and give her my highest recommendation.
