View All ListingsMy husband and I couldn't be happier with how Mariesa took care of us throughout our first homebuying experience. We never felt like we were left hanging or a burden when asking questions. Mariesa was more than happy to help us in any and all things pre and post closing. We closed on our home a week ago and she is still personally helping us and making sure our contract is fulfilled by the seller. We will definitely work with Mariesa in the future and recommend her to anyone in the search for an amazing and professional realtor.
We had an incredible experience with Mariesa from start to finish! I really appreciated that she took time to walk through the house and presented a data-driven plan for pricing and staging our home. She went above and beyond during our open house and kept us informed through the full listing period! We had multiple questions through the process and Mariesa always took time to patiently answer them. Mariesa handled all the complex paperwork, kept us updated on the progress and ensured an incredibly smooth closing. We loved working with Mariesa and would recommend her to anyone who wants to sell their home!
Mariesa was the perfect fit for us as first-time homebuyers! We reached out to her in December 2025 and began touring homes in January 2026. Over the course of five months, we toured more than 30 homes, wrote three offers, and ultimately closed on a home that we absolutely love. From the very beginning, Mariesa was incredibly informative, patient, and never rushed us in our decision-making. She made what felt like an overwhelming process much more manageable and enjoyable. Throughout our home search, Mariesa was always prompt in responding to calls, texts, and emails, and she kept us informed every step of the way. She never made us feel like our questions were silly and always took the time to explain things thoroughly. She helped us understand what to look for in a home, educated us on resale value considerations, and pointed out details we would have otherwise missed. We especially appreciated her honesty about potential concerns while also providing helpful context and solutions. When it came time to write offers, Mariesa walked us through every step and helped us put together strong, competitive offers. She never pressured us into anything we werent comfortable with and always made us feel confident in our decisions. She also worked seamlessly with our loan officer, helping the entire process go smoothly. Even when she was out of town, she made sure we had support available and never left us feeling unsupported. Throughout the entire process, Mariesa genuinely cared about helping us find the right home. Her patience, knowledge, communication, and advocacy made all the difference. We would confidently recommend her to anyone looking to buy a home, especially first-time homebuyers.
This was our first time selling a house and Mariesa was awesome about talking us through what to expect. I really appreciated that she came to our house and looked over all the rooms and then gave us a very clear and manageable list of things to address before our listing date. She watched the market closely and helped us set our asking price at the sweet spot - we got a full-price offer within a week. She also did our staging herself and it looked amazing! We loved working with Mariesa and would recommend her to anyone who wants to sell their home.
We had an incredible experience working with Mariesa throughout both the sale of our home and the purchase of our new one. From start to finish, Mariesa went above and beyond to make what could have been a stressful process feel smooth, organized, and even enjoyable. Mariesa's knowledge of the market, attention to detail, and proactive communication made a huge difference. When selling our home, she guided us through every stepaEUR"from pricing and staging to negotiationsaEUR"ensuring we got the best possible outcome. On the buying side, Mariesa truly listened to what we were looking for and worked tirelessly to help us find the right fit. What stood out the most was Mariesa's dedication and responsiveness. No question went unanswered, no detail was overlooked, and we always felt like a top priority. Mariesa anticipated challenges before they arose and handled everything with professionalism and care. We are so grateful for Mariesa's support and expertise during such an important time in our lives. We couldnt have asked for a better partner in this process and would highly recommend Mariesa to anyone looking to buy or sell a home.
I couldn't have asked for a better realtor! Mariesa is very professional, attentive and competent. As a first time home buyer, I had many questions on the process, but she guided me through everything. Our 1:1 meetings and house tours (which we went to a lot) were key for me to understand what I liked and what I didn't in a home, and to understand the offer making process, and then finally on how to close on a home. She explained everything very clearly, I felt like I was in good hands every step of the way. She treats her clients really well with the utmost priority, and she is very responsive and diligent which I appreciated greatly. She made the whole house buying experience very comfortable for me, and it didn't feel like I was going through it alone. Home buying can be very stressful, especially for a first timer like me, but I can honestly say that with Mariesa helping me navigate through everything, I didn't feel stressed. I closed on a house about a month ago, and I'm very happy and excited! I had a lovely seamless experience, and I recommend Mariesa 100%.
Id like to commence by highlighting her exceptional professionalism, attention to detail, and thorough explanations, which we were consistently communicated in a clear concise manner. Her outstanding handling of the entire situation has left an indelible impression on me, and I am thoroughly convinced that I will never want to work with anyone else. Her performance was truly exemplary, and as a result, we intend to engage her services when we need to purchase a home, and not only will she assist us in selling, but also in finding a new home in the near future. Again thank you so much Mariesa Holmes
Mariesa was awesome, from her presentation to home value, thru pricing and walking us through every step of the process. She was one step ahead guiding us through our home sale. She spots every detail and keeps the transaction moving at all times. She is a fierce negotiator on behalf of her client. Would definitely recommend.
Ive had the pleasure of working with Mariesa on both the sale of my home last month and the purchase of a new home in September 2023. From start to finish, she was knowledgeable, responsive, and an absolute professional. She made the entire process smooth, answered all my questions, and went above and beyond to make sure everything was handled properly. Whether youre buying or selling, I highly recommend MariesaaEUR"shes fantastic to work with and truly has your best interests at heart.
Mariesa was a great help throughout my home buying process. She was knowledgeable, patient, and supportive every step of the way. Thanks to her, we found our dream home. I highly recommend her!
Working with Mariesa was a fantastic experience from start to finish. She was professional, responsive, and genuinely cared about finding the right home for us. Her knowledge of the market and attention to detail made the entire process smooth and stress-free. I couldnt have asked for a better guide through this journey highly recommended!
Unfortunately, I'm very disappointed in my dealings with Mariesa and the way she handled the transaction as the buying agent for the home I purchased. It was brought to Mariesas attention after we signed the contract that there was a potential of a special assessment for the home that I was purchasing, but she and her broker claim that they didnt have to tell me once the contract was signed. The assessment will be for around $12,000 so its not small. Should she have disclosed it, in my opinion, yes, that would have been the right thing to do as I believe it qualifies as a aEURoematerial defect.aEUR? Mariesa has stated that aEURoeit wasnt in writingaEUR? although the president of our HOA sent her several texts which he forwarded to me. If youd like to see the texts, I can forward them to you. So, seller/buyer beware, I question the honesty and integrity of Mariesa. If youd like the name of an amazing realtor that I used as my buying and listing agent, Id be happy to share that with you.
As first-time home buyers, we couldn't have asked for a better real estate agent than Mariesa. She brought incredible patience and non-judgmental approach to all our questions - even to ones that I thought may be too basic or obvious, Mariesa always treated each inquiry with respect and provided thorough answers. She never made us feel inexperienced or show any sign of exasperation, despite our many questions. Mariesa also made the home-buying process exciting and smooth. She handled all the tedious aspects of paperwork and documentation, and would walk us through the important documents that we were about to sign. She also provided helpful checklists for our home tours and maintained a great working relationship with our loan officer, which made the loan application process much smoother. What I appreciated most was Mariesa's ethical approach. She never pushed us to buy, never rushed our timeline, and never tried to force us into decisions we weren't comfortable with. The house we ultimately purchased was almost half of our initial maximum budget, but Mariesa never tried to steer us toward more expensive properties. It really felt like she was on our side throughout the entire process. I highly recommend Mariesa for any first-time homebuyers who want an agent who is responsive, patient with questions, and genuinely committed to helping you find the right home on your terms.
Mariesa was the best agent we could have asked to work with on the sale of our home! From our first meeting, she had such patience and helped educate us on all our options. We always felt supported by her in our decisions and were so appreciative of her responsiveness and rigor in supporting us in a very volatile deal. I would recommend her to anyone and look forward to working with her on the purchase of our next property.
Mariesa helped us buy our home 8 years ago and I thought she did a wonderful job then. Fast forward to this year and hiring her to sell that same home..... WOW. She puts in SO much time, effort, and creativity into getting your home sold. She always offered many angles and ideas for different situations and then sat back and let us decided. She never pushed us to do anything we weren't comfortable with and was always extremely prompt in answering our phone calls, texts, e-mail, etc. Even though our sale is closed and done she's still checking in on us. I love how well she treats her clients
Made my first home buying experience incredibly smooth and easy, super knowledgeable, flexible, and personable, and was genuinely invested in figuring out what was important to me and getting me into a house that I would love. Appreciated her candid honesty about pointing out some of the aspects of houses that I might come to dislike over time or would affect resale, and she was constantly on the watch for things I wasn't thinking about. Would recommend to anyone.
Hiring Mariesa to represent us was the best decision we made! Mariesa is the only person you want representing you in the chaos of real estate transactions. Everything was made simple and easy with Mariesa and her team. I have felt so supported throughout the entire process of selling and buying our homes. Mariesa is kind, understanding, trustworthy, and fiercely loyal to her clients. Mariesa is incredibly professional and thorough while also being fun and approachable. Not only is she a fantastic realtor, we now consider her a wonderful friend! Without hesitation, we would wholeheartedly recommend Mariesa and her team!!
Mariesa Holm is a true professional with years of experience. She carefully listened to our wish list and offered suggestions to help us navigate the often stressful process of finding a home. She helped us write a competitive offer on a Saturday night while she was out of town! We got the home! Her advice on on selling our condo was much appreciated. She is pleasant and caring and patient. It was a great experience. We plan on referring her to our friends and family. Thank you Mariesa!!
We cannot recommend Mariesa highly enough! As first-time homebuyers, we were nervous about the entire process, but Mariesa made everything seamless and stress-free. She was incredibly fast with all the necessary processes and was always available whenever we needed her. Her responses were prompt, often within minutes, which kept the momentum going and reassured us that we were in good hands. Mariesa guided us through every step with patience and clarity, always ensuring we understood what was happening and what to expect next. Her enthusiasm and passion for her job were evident in everything she did, making the entire experience enjoyable and exciting. She has a network of excellent contacts, from mortgage brokers to inspectors, which was invaluable for us as first-time buyers. On top of all her professional attributes, Mariesa is genuinely one of the sweetest people we've had the pleasure of working with. Her positivity and dedication truly set her apart. If you're looking for a real estate agent who goes above and beyond, look no further than Mariesa. Thank you for helping us find our dream home!
My wife and I had an extremely positive experience with selling our home because of the professional guidance provided by our Real Estate Broker, Mariesa Holm. Mariesa brought into the process an extremely high degree of knowledge and background in pricing, marketing, and selling homes and she educated us about each step along the way. She gave us resources to rely upon in updating our homes interior, in making our home a thing of beauty, and in getting us aEURoethe biggest bang for the buckaEUR?. The results of her efforts are our house was on the market for five days and gave us a much greater return on our investment than we ever expected. We highly recommend Mariesa Holm to sell your home.
Mariesa is absolutely amazing! We bought our first home through her and she was incredible to work with. She understood our requirements very well and gave amazing recommendations. She also was very thorough with her process and extremely knowledgeable with the steps . She was extremely prompt in answering all our questions and was really patient with us as well and explained everything in detail. She was very easy to communicate with and always available . She always gave beneficial advice , recommendations and inputs. I would highly highly recommend her. It was an amazing experience to work with Mariesa.
Working with Mariesa was an absolute pleasure! Her warm and friendly demeanor made the entire process enjoyable. She was always approachable and willing to answer any questions or concerns we had at any time of the day. We cannot recommend Mariesa enough as a realtor. Her professionalism, hard work, and pleasant nature make her an exceptional agent to work with. She was always so quick with sending over any material even before we asked for it and we always enjoyed doing tours with her which at first seemed like such a difficult task. Thank you, Mariesa, for your outstanding service and for making our real estate journey such a smooth and pleasant one!
This was our second house we bought through Mariesa. Mariesa is very thorough with her work. She is very prompt and answered our questions quickly. We could rely on her and sit back through the entire house buying process. She is very resourceful and was able to quickly get us in touch with a house inspector and general contractor, when we didnt know where to start. Her commitment goes beyond the sale of a house, and she keeps in touch and checks in regularly. Its been 3 years since our first house and she continues to provide monthly market updates and never misses a holiday wish. Personal side: She was able to meet us in a park (in a drizzle) so that our kids could play while we discussed our house needs and she helped calm our nerves. Definitely went above and beyond :)
As first time homebuyers in a competitive market, house hunting was stressful, but Mariesa made it as smooth as possible and ultimately we purchased a home we are so excited about! She was great to work with throughout the entire process, from initially meeting, to house hunting, to offering, to post-closing! She was always quick to respond and set us up with another realtor who we also really liked on the occasional weekend that she was out of town. She never pressured us in any way and seemed to genuinely care about us being happy with where we ended up. When we found the house we ended up buying, she read the situation perfectly, and we think she is the reason our offer was accepted. We have already recommended her to a family member, who also had a great experience with her, and will continue to recommend her and work with her again ourselves if we decide to purchase another home in the future.
Mariesa made a stressful process easy and enjoyable! We will definitely be recommending and using her services in the future. She went above and beyond to make buying our first home go smoothly!
Mariesa was knowledgeable and easy to work with throughout the buying process. Buying with her is easy and she provides great insight into the market as a whole. She was very patient and was more than willing to travel for showings across Western Washington. The home I purchased was one of her recommendations and I am very satisfied; I could not recommend Mariesa enough!
My boyfriend and I had an amazing experience working with Mariesa! It was scary, at first, going to buy a house for the first time with such a competitive market, but with Mariesa, our minds were put at ease! She found us a wonderful home and even had the sellers pay the closing costs! Would recommend her to anyone looking to buy a home currently!
Mariesa is a blessing and absolutely wonderful. Our entire home buying experience started horribly with a bad realtor. We were house hunting for MONTHS. Then we met Mariesa and she found us the perfect home in 9 DAYS. It was a rollercoaster thereafter and she stuck with us like the champion she is. We could not have asked for a better advocate, beater teammate, better person to help us realize our dream of home ownership than this lady right here. I can say with 100% surety that we would not be here today without her. THANK YOU MARIESA!!! ??
Mariesa understands our local market and knows how to make the most of all offers. She walked with me through each step of the process and helped me purchase an amazing home in Lake Stevens which is exactly where I wanted to end up. It was within my budget, and I even got it at asking price - which in a hot market is AMAZING. Everything was so smooth, and also so quick. I went from just looking to accepted offer in a week.
My wife and I had an excellent experience working with Mariesa on a new home purchase. As first time buyers it was very intimidating coming into such an incredibly hot market. Mariesa has expert knowledge of the market, the area, and the things to look for and to avoid when considering a new home purchase. She made sure to point out items that could be a potential concern for resale down the road. She was also extremely responsive to any and all questions we had during the process. She treated us as if we were her only client, even though we knew she was juggling many others at the same time. I cannot recommend her enough to anyone looking to buy or sell their home. She was absolutely fantastic to work with throughout the entire process. We are so excited to be moving into our first home and making it our own and we are extremely thankful for her hard work to get us there.
If you want a real estate agent who is knowledgable; tenacious; detail oriented; personable; honest - with great character and integrity; and always working in your best interest, then you definitely want Mariesa Holm!! We are elated with of the sale of our house in just two days, as we listened to and followed her counsel. We would have been lost without her, and the results would have been far less! We highly recommend that you take advantage of Mariesas experience and expertise. You will not be sorry!!
Mariesa went above and beyond! Our journey as first time homeowners turned out to be a long one. Mariesa was incredibly quick and responsive as we began looking at home in a highly competitive market. She helped us understand the offer process and walked us though house after house. We eventually decided to go with a new construction home and signed for a house that was 6 months away from completion. With all the supply shortages, it took over a year for us to finally get the keys to our home. Mariesa was there with us every step of the way; happy to attend any design session or meetings with the builders that we wanted her help with. She was an excellent go between and went to bat for us anytime something wasn't right. Even now, months after closing, she checks in on us often and always offers to contact the builders for us about fixes or any home problems. She has always made us feel like her top priority even though I know she is busy with other clients. I don't know how she does it! I would recommend her to anyone and will definitely be giving her a call whenever we decide to make another move.
This is the 4th time Mariesa has helped me buy/sell a home! Yes - FOUR times....She's that good! Mariesa is so well organized and keeps on track with key dates and deliverables. She is super attentive, knowledgeable and honest. If you are unsure about who to use - ask to meet her and you'll be wowed by her preparation, kindness and professionalism! I don't know how she did it, but my latest offer was accepted over 20 other offers, some of which were higher and all cash. Mariesa goes out of her way to make buying and selling an enjoyable and stress free (as much as possible) experience. As long as I live in the area, she'll be my realtor for life! Thanks again Mariesa
Mariesa is the best real estate agent I could have asked for. She helped me purchase my dream home. She is very proactive, responsive, knowledgable, and most importantly, looks out for her clients. She is also a very thoughtful and genuine person that wants to help anyway she can. Highly recommended agent to work with.
Would use Mariesa to buy or sell a home any day! She is very experienced and so easy to work with. She is very responsive and always goes to bat for her clients.
We recently purchased our home and Mariesa helped us throughout the entire process. She is very knowledgeable and can see even the smallest details that is not immediately noticeable. I would definitely work with her again.
We loved working with Mariesa. She was personable and relatable. As first time home buyers she was very patient and answered all of our questions. She took the time and effort to explain every step and all of our "what if" questions. She really understood our needs and wants. Her wide range of knowledge allowed her to advise us on things to look for and small things that are typically overlooked. When it came time to make an offer on a house, she helped us put together a great offer that beat out a competitor who had offered a higher price. Thanks to her, we got a really great deal in a nice neighborhood at a reasonable price. We'll be coming back to Mariesa for all of our future real estate needs.
My husband and I decided to buy a house in a very short time frame (less than 3 months), in an incredibly competitive market, over the holidays, during a pandemic, on a strict budget, with a baby and a toddler. It was stressful (to say the least) and we werent entirely sure it was even possible. Mariesa was there with us every step of the way. She was amazing! She worked with the budget we had to create the most competitive offer we could make. Our very first offer was accepted - less than a week after we started looking. Sadly, after the inspection turn up a leaking roof and a deck that was beyond repair we had to walk away. Mariesa assured us that we would find something better and we did. It wasnt easy though. We looked at every house in our area and price range that went on the market. Mariesa was quick to get us in to see houses and was incredibly helpful at pointing out the pros and cons of each property we looked at. She noticed things I never would have thought to look for and helped us identify what was cosmetic and what was more serious. We ended up making an offer almost every weekend. One weekend we even offered on two different houses! Mariesa helped us craft each offer so that it was the best we could make. Unfortunately, with the market being as competitive as it is right now, we kept getting out-bid. Mariesa wrote seven offers for us. Each offer was crafted to appeal to exactly what the seller wanted and with every offer Mariesa walked us through what to expect and what options we had. She was amazing at communicating about what was going on! Each time we submitted an offer she would text and let us know that she had contacted the selling agent and what (if anything) they had told her. It was always a relief to know that she was checking in on our behalf! We hope to stay in our new home for several years at least, but when we do decide to move, we will definitely contact Mariesa first!
She was very helpful, easy to work with and would answer every question we had! She has went above and beyond for us, thanks to her we have bought our first home!
Mariesa Holm did an excellent job representing us. She was kind , courteous and professional. If you hire her she will get you the best possible deal.
Mariesa was wonderful to work with, she was there every step of the way and answered all our questions, no matter how silly we thought they were. She got us the best price we could get and negotiated on our behalf for what we really wanted. She is awesome
I loved working with Mariesa! As a first-time home (condo) buyer, I naturally had tons of questions. Mariesa's patience and thorough nature was such a comfort. I appreciate that she had the insight and experience to help me make strong decisions- from pointing out potential issues in properties to providing me with market research and reminders of deadlines in the purchasing process, Mariesa truly went above and beyond my expectations. I highly recommend working with her!
It was great working with Mariesa. She was professional and always kept us informed about the home buying process. Mariesa made buying a home easy. If you are looking to buy or sell a home I would recommend Mariesa.
I was a first time home buyer in Seattle and the process couldn't be more daunting specially during the lock-down. Mariesa was extremely accommodating and diligent. She helped me understand the new home viewing policies and made sure everything was up-to code. She was patient and explained to me every aspect of the home and what I should pay attention to as a first time home buyer. Not only did she help me understand the current market condition but also understand the growth potential. I specially loved the fact that Mariesa backed up all the suggestions with data and that helped me understand the 'why's' and made me comfortable making an offer. She helped me to get the house inspected and made sure that I was happy with my purchase in long term. I cannot cannot cannot recommend Mariesa enough. She is personable, positive, encouraging and helped me to find the perfect place to call "Home". I couldn't have asked for a better real estate professional to find the perfect home :)
Mariesa was outstanding. She was professional yet friendly and patient. She was well organized and attentive. She stayed on top of all changes, contacts, needed quotes and services and kept me well informed. I am so appreciative that she had time to work with me!! I highly recommend her services!
We were first time home buyers in the competitive Seattle market with only the weekends to view houses. Mariesa was extremely accommodating of our time constraints and very patient with us as first time buyers. She took as much time as we needed, walking us through the homes that we toured, pointing out matters that we should keep our eyes on. Many times these items were ones that we were not even considering. Mariesas patience was on full display while we debated and thought about houses that we toured, typically around 2-3 houses a weekend, for close to 6 months! We are very happy with our choice to work with Mariesa and would highly recommend her to anyone who is looking for a house in the Everett-Seattle area. Mariesa paid close attention to detail in the houses that we toured and was honest about the updates that would be needed over time. She made sure that we were comfortable in making an offer and was never pushy. If she was unavailable to show us a house, she found a coworker to help us. She made sure that we understood all the documents that we were signing and guided us with her expertise to make a strong offer. She recommended a great home inspector and moving company. She provided encouragement, was personable, had a positive attitude, and worked very hard to find the perfect place for us to call home. Her highest priority was for us to find a home that we loved and she succeeded in finding it in our dream location.
As a first-time home buyer, I thought a real-estate agent is just to show open houses. After working with Mariesa, I found the complexity of the documentation during house purchasing transaction was beyond my expectation. Not only she provided easy to use timeline for us to understand what to expect, but also negotiated with the builder to protect our best interest. During house-hunting process, she understood our budget and target; hence, able to provide valueable advices for details of the house that we need to be aware. Speaking of responsiveness, I give her two thumbs up. Not only she answered all my questions, but also provided guidances that helped us to focus during house-hunting.
Mariesa was an incredible agent, and we couldn't be happier. We enlisted her to sell our home and buy a new one. Our old home needed some renovations but because we were selling we didn't want to put a whole lot in. Mariesa thoughtfully went through all the options on what she thought could get us our $ back, or what would help us sell quickly. She project managed all the contractor work (floors, painting, landscaping, windows) and kept us on task for deadlines. Her marketing, photographs, videography and staging were a level above! After one open house weekend we had several offers, but she made sure to reach out to EVERYONE that came to the house to get feedback. For our new house, she had no problem looking in a wide geographic area because we weren't sure where we wanted to be. We found a perfect house and she is open to us asking about her contractor/vendor referals since all the ones we have used through her have been excellent. Highly recommend - she works very hard and it has paid off!
Mariesa is a client-focused and mission-driven. Her knowledge and expertise in the business exceeded our expectations. In both selling and buying, Mariesa accomplished what we wanted. If you want an agent that drives all the process and negotiations for you with ease, make sure you work with her!
Selling a house is a very stressful time but Mariesa took away a lot of the stress with her constant communication and guidance for navigating the steps with the final closing process. She also showed a lot of concern that I was comfortable with timelines and the process itself. Definitely will go through Mariesa in buying my next house. Awesome experience.
