Maureen McLean the most honest real estate agent I have ever met. My family and I had been living in our home for 51 years. After my son died in 2013 and then my father in 2017. My mom and I decided it was time for a change. Real estate in the San Francisco Bay area was really good. So it seemed like the right time to sell. However, where would we go?if we relocate we have to change all our doctors. The fear of leaving our well-established environment was overwhelming, to say the least! We've known our neighbors forever and we all look out for eachother. All these feelings were extremely strong and felt crippling. We called Maureen and set up a meeting in the comfort of our home. Maureen listened to our fears, needs and wants. She was very compassionate and realistic. She helped us see the positive weighed out the negative thoughts we were having. She showed us what our new life could look like. She walked us through the process we needed to sell our home. Maureen with her wide range of resources, knowledge and experienced helped us through everything. She knows exactly what to do to get her clients the best possible results. She goes above and beyond the call of duty to make sure her clients are completely satisfied! The phrase, "you need to spend a little to make more" is true. We spent a little money preparing our home to sell. Our home was already in really good condition but needed a little TLC before marketing. We followed Maureen suggestions and came out with a sell figure that was heard to believe we actually got for our 1030 sqft home. The profit we made was over a million. Thank you Maureen. Now we needed to go shopping, which brought up more fears! We were so afraid of not finding a home in the location we choose before closing on our current home. A lot of agents would just point you in the direction you need to go and be done, not Maureen. She stayed with us and helped us find a new home exactly where we wanted to be. A new home in a safe gated community that's perfect for two over aged women and their dog. Maureen negotiated the sale and handed us the keys to our new home. She worked with the title companies for both houses and timed everything perfectly. She is amazing! Maureen McLean cares about her clients. She stayed with us from beginning to end. Through the process of selling our home and moving us in to our new home. Plus, everything in between including the conversations of reassuring us everything would fall in to place exactly when it was supposed to and it did. We have been in our new home for a few months and we love it here. We are so grateful to Maureen for her honesty, kindness, knowledge and professionalism. We would have never been able to accomplish our new wonderful life without Maureen expertise. We recommend Maureen to everyone and anyone. Maureen lives up to being in the best 2% of her field. Thank you Maureen for helping us find our new life.

Why does Yelp only allow 5 stars? Maureen deserves 10! We are relatively new to the Bay Area -- 2-3 years in SF -- and had little "real" knowledge of the region aside from going to work or going to Sonoma. However, we knew we wanted to buy a house/condo rather than continue paying the extortionist rental rates in SF. Maureen was able to answer all our questions, not only about the real estate process, but also about the details of the various neighborhoods in and around San Mateo and all the way up through San Francisco. A Bay Area native, she has an intuitive sense of the housing market and was always quick to identify when a house was going to sell for way over asking price, so we could adjust our expectations accordingly. There were ups and downs in the house hunt (aren't there always?) but Maureen was level-headed, dependable, and determined to see us succeed, even when we were feeling dejected and ready to throw in the towel. On top of it all, she has a great personality - warm and welcoming with a great sense of humor. But don't let her sparkling demeanor fool you, she is a formidable advocate and totally comfortable playing hardball when necessary. And it was necessary! It's not always the case that you look forward to meeting with your real estate agent, but we loved working with Maureen, and ultimately, we purchased a beautiful condo in SF (SoMa) that exceeded our expectations, for a price that was less than we thought possible in the City. And no matter what follow-up work we needed done (painting, electrical, etc.) she "knew a guy" - which was extremely helpful, especially for relative newbies to the area like us. Thank you, Maureen! Ten stars!

Maureen is fantantic and very honest. I've been in contact with her over the past 5 years to advise on local house prices and she has always been helpful and willing to stop by and provide local sales information. We finally decided to move out of San Bruno and move to Napa. The decison happed in a few weeks due to my husband aquiring a new job. Maureen was more than willing to assist and walk us through the process. She was very flexible with accomodating us and our schedules and tight timelines. Maureen was great with assisting us with any questions. She provided us with information we needed to prepare our house and get it on the market. This happened in less than a week. She was great with keeping us on track and knowing what needed to be done. She was there for all the inspections, appraisals, loan processes and anything we needed. The house sold within a week and we got over asking and meet all of our deadlines. My real estate agent in Napa made a comment to me at our closing that he wasn't sure how we did it in the timeframe we had. Maureen assist with arranging all the required inspections. All the companies she recomended were really good as well. They all had great comments about Maureen as well. You can tell she is respected from the contractors as well. She recommended movers (Shamrock) and they were fantasitc. She is a great resource for all your selling and moving needs. We are still in contact with her after the sale as she has become a new friend in the process. We have moved to Napa but my daughter even asked if we sell our house can Maureen help us again? She is AMAZING and we loved working with her all all her contacts as well. Maureen is a very honest, carring and knowledgable in her field. I can't say enough about how GREAT she is. I would highly recommend her to assist with selling homes



Bill H. - San Francisco, CA

Deborah R. - Burlingame, CA

mike s. - Millbrae, CA

Living in Australia and looking for an investment property in the Bay area was not easy, I was extremely lucky to be referred to Maureen McLean. Not only she helped me to buy a very good property over 12 months ago, but also she explained in details how the property market works in the USA and ensured that I was not rushing into buying something that wasn't what I wanted. She has provided me with invaluable information and has been a trusted and reliable source during that time. I am extremely pleased with the end result and would highly recommend Maureen to anyone as she is very knowledgeable in her field of work. She was always there when I needed to contact her with my queries from afar, even now, she is always so helpful with providing contact details if i needed to find someone who can help maintain the house. I would have rated more than 5 stars services if such a rating is available. Maureen McLean is a consummate, dedicated real estate professional. As we attempted to sell our home in this negative housing market, Maureen maintained a contagious, positive, upbeat spirit that allayed any fears we had of successfully obtaining an acceptable price for our home of forty years. We interviewed other Real Estate Agents, but, within the first minutes of initially speaking with her, my wife and I knew she was the Realtor for us. She was honest in that she told us what we needed to hear and not what we wanted to hear. She took the initiative in trying various approaches to sell our home. We knew she had other clients, but she made us feel as if we were her only clients. We found her to be a professional who CARES. She sold our house allowing us to pursue our dream of purchasing a home in the Sierra foothills. We gladly recommend her, without any reservations, to anyone seeking a quality, successful and personable Realtor



Vincent W. - Melbourne, Australia

Maureen was and is a competent and focused agent. Her diligence to the details and nuance of presentation, rewarded us with two full offers within a week of the only open house we needed.



Kathy D. - Daly City, CA

I bought my current home in San Mateo with Maureen's help. The timing was not the best due to market volatiliy and difficulties for buyers and sellers. Maureen's knowledge, experience and contacts truly helped me in finding what I was looking for. She was not pushy and paid close attention to my requirements. She was aggressive and diligent in searching for available properties that fit my needs and budget until we found it. I like the home and the area so much, I am not sure if I can ever sell it :) Thank you Maureen.



Nezam M. - San Mateo, CA

A relative recommended Maureen McClean after having a very positive home selling experience. I was looking to purchase a home for the first time on my own and Maureen provided exceptional service. She is energetic, a good listener, and paid close attention to everything I had told her about my needs and wants in a new home, and she got right to business. She made me feel as though I had her full attention at all times and is always very pleasant to work with and very responsive. I was very impressed with per people skills, her negotiating skills, and her follow-through. She presents every purchase offer personally, which I truly believe resulted in my successful purchase with the buyer, even though there were higher offers made on the property. Maureen also provided solid recommendations and follow-up during every step of the process. Maureen exceeded my expectations, and I would highly recommend her.



P M. - San Mateo, CA

Whether you are buying or selling, Maureen is a true professional and a pleasure to work with from start to finish. She has a keen understanding of the market and an ability to quickly assess your needs and align with you on your desired property and goals. She is a straight shooter and will not waste your time or money pursuing options that are not a good fit for you. For me, buying a home was a little scary and overwhelming; however, Maureen handled the process and negotiations beautifully and represented me in a way that alleviated stress and made the process less scary. I have referred Maureen to friends and family and have absolutely no hesitation referring her to others!



Juanita S. - San Mateo, CA

We could not have made a better choice than asking Maureen to represent us with selling our home of 16 years. This was a life altering moment for us and Maureen made it attainable. She listened to our goals and provided us with her expertise from beginning to end, which was invaluable. I do not believe anyone else could have provided the expertise that Maureen provided us. We could call her at moment's notice and she would be there for us. Maureen's marketing and staging advice were thumbs up with remarkable results. Maureen has a special gift; she cares and has amazing people skills along with her immeasurable realtor knowledge, which made our house selling experience a winning success.



Laura D. - San Bruno, CA

Maureen sold our moms house for us recently. What can I say , she was absolutely amazing!!! She sold the house so fast and kept on top of everything for us. I will be recommending her to everyone I know!!



michelle s. - Concord, CA

Maureen did an excellent job, with the sale of our families house. It was a difficult situation and Maureen handled the job in a nice tactful way. She was very thorough and kept us updated during the entire sale. She handled the job beautifully.



Brenda U. - San Bruno, CA

Maureen is truly a gem of an agent. We had a difficult family situation to deal with the sale of a family property and thanks to her professionalism we were able to complete the sale with very few glitches. She handled the difficult party with tact and diplomacy and is a saint in my book. She kept us well informed and had a solution to any situation that should arise. I would highly recommend Maureen for you whether you are a buyer or seller. Thank you Maureen for a job VERY well done!



Joyce W. - Burlingame, CA

Maureen McLean was the agent that listed and sold our father's home in South San Francisco in January 2016. She was wonderful. She guided us through the very emotional process of getting our family home ready for sale, coordinating the repairs, and staging, listing the home and contract negotiations. She was amazing, really knows her business. She put us in contact with the estate sales company and after the estate sale was completed and the home was empty, she was up and running getting our home ready for sale. Maureen is very knowledgeable, efficient, upfront, and honest. She advised us on what items in the home were more important to fix to sell the house, had her crew of people working on it, and the home staged. After all the repairs and minor restoration completed, the home was beautiful. It was like walking into a completely different house. The house sold very quickly and well over the asking price. I couldn't be more happy with the results. I highly recommend Maureen.



Heather Jensen - San Bruno, CA

Maureen is a wonderful agent! She is there whenever you need her for anything you can call and text her anytime. She has great referrals as well. She also makes sure you are happy as well as getting what you need, we love her!



Francis M - San Bruno, CA

Maureen worked with us last spring to sell my mother's house. She was wonderful! She jumped right in and guided us through everything, even working hard to get quotes and supervise contractors needed to help prepare the house for sale. She is not afraid to do work and was sensitive to our budget constraints. I recommend Maureen highly!



Glenn Fernandez - Pacifica, CA

Maureen is as good as it gets. My wife and I "WERE" first time home buyers and from the start of the process all through the end she provided sound advice holding our hands as she patiently explained every step of the process to us. She was very attentive and knowledgeable. We highly recommend her services.



IRENE T - San Bruno, CA

Maureen was the realtor for the sale of our home and made us feel comfortable about the whole process from the get go. Her warm personality, experience, expert knowledge of our neighborhood, excellent marketing and negotiating skills, and 24 x7 accessibility instilled complete confidence in us about her abilities to successfully handle our transaction. My husband and I especially appreciated Maureen's ability to be a good listener and her responsive "can do" attitude to any request or issue that would arise. Overall, the process went very smoothly and we had a great experience with Maureen who achieved our ultimate goal of obtaining top dollar for the sale of our home. We definitely recommend Maureen's services and look forward to working with her again for any future real estate transactions.

K Bachmann - San Mateo, CA

Maureen helped me and my wife to find our dream house in the Bay area. She was from the beginning great to work with, very friendly, outgoing and honest. She understood very fast what we were looking for, most of the properties she showed us were spot on which helped us to be very efficient in our research. This was important for us as we both work long hours. Maureen was crucial for our final purchase, we both believe that without her we would not have got the deal. In this hot housing market she presented us in a very favorable way to the sellers and she was on top of the entire negotiation and closing process, we could settle below asking. Even after closing, Maureen supported us by answering our questions and recommending us good contractors. We will definitely give her a ring when we need to move into a bigger house!



Ellen Candee - Hillsborough, CA

Maureen, June 13, 2013 You certainly can list me as a satisfied customer and share this e-mail with whomever you want. Your knowledge of the Hillsborough market, honesty, and professionalism were evident throughout your assistance in the sale of my mother-in-law's home. Your advice on doing upgrades on the house, staging the property, and what price to list the house at to generate multiple offers which resulted in a rapid sale at well over list price (all according to your marketing plan) all contributed directly to a very positive experience. Thanks so much.

Dayna Ehlen

"Maureen was an invaluable help in selling a unique property in a unique situation. She was always available to discuss any property-related concerns, presented her opinions and suggestions, and listened to mine. Because I was a travelling distance from the property, she performed many of the on-site duties normally attended to by the seller. She is energetic, positive, and combines these attributes with sensitivity to the individual's circumstances. I highly recommend her for a pleasant real estate transaction.



Love Dede and Enrique Mayor-Mida - San Bruno, CA

Dear Maureen, We wanted to thank you for all of the hard work and dedication you put into selling our home. When we told you we wanted to sell our house quick, you jumped right into action and helped us achieve our goal. You were a lot of fun to work with and your upbeat and positive attitude made it easy to communicate with you. Thank you once again and have a great summer.



Bruce and Cindy Kaldor

To Whom It May Concern: Working with Maureen was a pleasure. From the beginning to the end of the selling process, she provided excellent service and advise. She has key contacts for pre-sale upgrades and great ideas for staging and marketing. She was able to anticipate our needs and was always responsive when we asked for assistance. Maureen is able to connect with people. Her outgoing, friendly demeanor, coupled with an exceptional knowledge of the Burlingame market and firm negotiating skills helped to make the sale of our house a success.
