ZillowVERIFIEDBefore choosing a real estate agent, I conducted a lot of research to see who would be the best choice - I specifically looked into the time, effort, and promotion put into selling properties. Madeleine Semaan from First Team Real Estate stood out as the best North Orange County had to offer. Her social media presence was strong, and I could tell that she put a lot of work into her listings. Madeleines expertise in the market was evident from the first meeting at our home. She spent hours answering our questions, providing a detailed analysis of market trends, and helping us make important decisions about the sale. Her amazing interpersonal skills and ability to connect made the process easy to maneuver. Her proactive approach was evident when she organized an open house that attracted multiple offers. She expedited the paperwork and coordinated viewings effectively, leading to a quick sale. Madeleines strategy during the negotiation phase was impressive, as she leveraged her market knowledge to our advantage. Her dedication to not only meet but exceed our expectations was incredible. Throughout the sale process, Madeleine was incredibly communicative - she promptly answered texts and emails and kept us informed on each development. She provided support way beyond the transaction by assisting with staging, organizing professional photography of the space, overseeing the necessary repairs to the house, and ensuring the house was cleared for the new owners. When we saw our listing, we were blown away, it looked amazing and knocked out the competition. Madeleine has an extremely friendly demeanor and her professionalism is consistent. She was always on time for appointments and provided reliable advice, ensuring a smooth final transaction. I would recommended Madeleine to everyone who is looking to sell - you'd be hard pressed to find a better realtor.
