Maria was a calm, steady presence as we began our rental journey. We were house searching while living in another state, and Maria was incredibly proactive with communications, helped educate us on our new city, and was so giving of her time and expertise of Marin County. We're thrilled with the home we found and look forward to working with her for years to come!

Maria was recommended to me and I’m glad she was. Maria has been a delight to work with. Her professionalism, reliability, trustworthiness, follow through, and attention to detail, has made the process seamless. Best of all, Maria found me excellent tenants in a short time. Would definitely recommend her and use her service again.

My husband and I worked with Maria DeSalvo in our transition into our new home in Novato. It was a very positive experience and we highly recommend her services as a realtor. If at any time we need a real estate agent, we hope to engage her services. She was professional, courteous, and well organized. She was patient and took the time to answer all our questions and explain the process. She went over and beyond what we would have expected. As we are new to Novato, she sent us a long list of restaurants, gyms, hiking trails and other attractions in the area. On our first day in our new home, she left us a welcome packet, which we found to be very helpful. We appreciate her care and attention and we would recommend her to our family and friends!

My experience working with Maria has been nothing short of amazing. She has a very special way of connecting with people and I always felt seen and heard in her presence. I will always remember our weekly check-ins and how I always left feeling motivated and reinvigorated. I highly recommend working with Maria if you get the chance to do so!

Working with Maria, I felt so deeply seen and guided. Her warmth, dedication and passion for what she does is apparent from the moment you meet and forever following. Maria’s experience and powerful adaptability gave me reassurance and absolute trust in her and her work!

Maria is an ideal person to work with. My time with her was seamless, communicative, and overall enjoyable. She has many notable qualities, but one that made collaborating with her so delightful was her openness. She meets new people and new ideas with a fresh mind and open heart - something that was understood from the first meeting with her. I was more than impressed by Maria's commitment to both quality of business operations and empathy as a leader, and I would highly recommend working with her given the opportunity.

I've had the privilege of working with Maria over the last few years. If I've learned anything, it's that she's a heart centered, people person. She's able to quickly assess the energy of a room and guide conversations in order to best serve who's in front of her. Maria is an excellent listener and communicator. I highly recommend working with her.

Maria DeSalvo was amazing to work with. She held a safe container where I felt able to deep dive into what inspires me and what blocks needed to be removed. Through her guidance I was able to connect with what matters most to me and how I wanted to express myself in the world. She was caring, compassionate, and an empathetic listener. She provided a space where I could expand my vision and connect to my deepest desires.

I had the pleasure of working with Maria DeSalvo for several months during her tenure as publisher of a progressive publication. Maria is intelligent, engaging, a forward thinker. She has the unique ability of forecasting future challenges and mitigating them before they grow into problems. Maria also has a strong design aesthetic and eye for detail that will make her an excellent addition to the realtor community in the Bay Area. But what I appreciate most about working with Maria is her strong work ethic and her dedication to her clients. Maria would rather forgo her profit than let a customer down. That selflessness is rare in any industry, but even more rare in the realtor community.

Working with Maria in any capacity is a dream. She is committed to meaningful growth and shows deep compassion, empathy & understanding both for herself as evidenced by her investing in herself by working with me, and for others as evidenced by her work vis a vis Mdrn Day Muse. I have seen her take every challenge and turn it into an opportunity for learning and success. She is an enterprising young woman who is thorough with her research and values the core of what makes each of us our own unique version of human - an exceptional quality to have in a real estate agent. Speaking both as a peer and a facilitator, you could not place yourself and your search for a home in better hands if you tried.

Working with Maria has been a true life changer. She was the person I needed for guidance and empathy. She always met me where I was every single time I worked with her. She knew how to challenge me and give me insight to new possibilities.

I’ve had the pleasure of working with Maria during the course of two of her magazine issues. Maria was always organized and structured when it came to outlining peoples responsibilities and milestones for the magazine. She was able to bring a group from all over the country together, overcome the hurdles that come with disparate teams, and all build something together. I always felt inspired and more creative when working with Maria, because she always brought such innovation to the table. She was always sharing new ideas with the team, and was really good at taking and building off feedback. Maria helped make you comfortable sharing your ideas no matter how daring they were.

Working with Maria on a weekly basis, I knew I was able to count on having an incredibly supportive and empowering presence in my corner to help guide me as I navigated new endeavors. Her leadership was an integral part in creating clearer paths towards my ideas and goals.

I absolutely loved working with Maria! She is so devoted to not only being the best version of herself, she shows up with so much kindness. She’s the real deal and won’t fluff you, ever. She’s authentic, playful, and also is really committed to what she says she’s going to do. Maria is someone I trust to get any job done, but in a way that makes it enjoyable for everyone involved. I highly recommend working with her.

Maria is a driven, thoughtful, and extremely passionate human being and businesswoman. When working with her, Maria's determination and focus is unparalleled in what she does. She cares about the details as much as she cares about the big holistic picture of any project she's involved in.
