Thank you so much Emy, for the most beautiful and professional presentation ever! I was so impressed and my client was blown away. You are one classy agent!
Thank you Emily and Iga for your help buying our very first home! I grew up in Mill Valley, and wanted to relocate back to Marin after living in San Francisco, abroad and on the East Coast. Marin is a very different place than when I grew up, so Emily and Iga’s in-depth knowledge about the area were invaluable to us trying to find the right starter home in an up and coming neighborhood. We wanted to find a great investment and a project to call our own. Despite not being the highest offer, we were able to get the house, but only because Emily and Iga had an established relationship with the seller's agent. Thank you Emily and Iga!’
We used Emily & Iga to assist us in the sale of our family home. They were not only very professional, knowledgeable, and attentive to detail, but also exceptionally sensitive to the emotions surrounding the sale. We would recommend them to anyone looking to sell a home
I wanted to send a quick testimonial about my experience working with Emily Schaffer. My wife and I just bought a house in San Rafael. Emily was our realtor. Emily had that unnameable quality. She clearly stood out from the crowd. Emily's attention to detail and thoroughness and love for the process itself was clearly visible every step of the way from early conversations through the more exacting process of escrow. Emily was able to grow with us as we evolved through the process. Emily was a diamond in the rough, and I personally would happily work with her again. There is more I could say. But for now, the above paragraph would be my testimonial.
Emily expertly guided us through what is normally a complicated process of buying our first home, only made more complicated during the pandemic. She made everything feel easy and took the extra steps to ensure we were protected during this uncertain time. We couldn’t be more thrilled and couldn’t recommend her more!
My husband and I just bought our first house in Novato with Emily Schaffer. Besides having a stellar reputation, amazing contacts and being extremely knowledgeable of the current housing market, she was accommodating and very patient with our first-time-buyer questions. She has excellent communication and she was fun to work with! We could not be more grateful to her for all her hard work and expertise. We would highly recommend her to anyone considering buying a home in Marin or Sonoma.
As a first time home buyer, I was overwhelmed and had no idea what I was doing. Emily answered my calls and texts seven days a week, had the answers to all my questions and always made time to show me just one more house. She has a great relationship with other realtors and was able to get the inside scoop and make magic happen!
Emily is a GEM of a real estate agent! She never left any questions unanswered and always responded promptly. I really feel she knows her business and met us with very helpful information and explained her process in a way that definitely showed her expertise in real estate! Emily is friendly and professional, we can’t thank her enough for all the hard work, dedication and the time she spent in selling our house and buying a new one! Of all the realtors we met and worked with, she truly is the best!!
We were first time buyers 4.5 years ago with 2 small kids and a third on the way any minute. After renting for well over a decade in SF, everything was so foreign when it came to home buying, ownership, and the entire process in between..on top of all the heightened emotions that came with life those days! Then, in comes Emily Schaffer! We were recommended to her by a friend to work with her on looking for our home and we are so thankful our paths crossed! Her calm and thoughtful demeanor, in addition to her knowledge of the area and business were just what she needed. Her keen eye would point out subtle things about a property that may benefit or not benefit our family. She helped guide us through all the technicalities of escrow ( what is escrow !!) inspections, bidding all with a gentle but thorough way of explaining things we didn't understand or needed further information about. After just a couple months of looking we were able to purchase our first home and settle in quickly due to her skill and professionalism in closing so timely. Emily is personable, thoughtful, and truly feels like a friend with your best interest at heart when looking for your home. We are so grateful we had the opportunity to work with her!
We loved working with Emily to find our dream home in Mill Valley. She was thoughtful, thorough, and used her expertise to steer us in the direction of a home that would truly make us happy for years to come. Her knowledge of Mill Valley is second to none, even finding us a gem off market and getting us to an accepted offer within 24 hours. Throughout the process she was patient and pointed out things that we would never notice, so we knew the ins and outs of each home before making an offer. Big thanks to Emily for all of her hard work and partnership in the home buying process!
I am so glad that we chose Emily as our realtor to sell our house! I appreciate her professionalism and her knowledge of the area. All of her collaborators (from the title company to the notary) were top-notch and as outstanding as she is! I would highly recommend her to anyone looking for a realtor that will put you first.
Emily Schaffer is an elite agent: genuine, smart, hardworking, creative and successful. She truly has her client’s interest at heart and closes successful deals — a winning combination!
Emily was a delight to work with and especially proficient in navigating the current reality of this housing market. Beyond helping us find a perfect home, she welcomed us into the town of Mill Valley with open arms.
Emily was in continuous communication with us throughout the buying cycle. We hadn't purchased a home in a long while and needed a good guide. Emily helped us figure out the right initial offer since we knew we'd likely have only one shot. She nailed it. Post contract Emily helped us negotiate the financing and closing cycle and she has supported us post closing so that we had someone to turn to. We think of Emily as a good friend.
Emily is a joy to work with. She was super empathetic to my needs and the fact that this was my first home purchase. She made the whole process seamless and effortless as she was proactive, responsive, and ultimately invested in finding the perfect home for me.
Emily was a dream realtor to work with. Her knowledge of the Mill Valley market is unparalleled. Every step of the way, she gave solid advice and guidance on how best to prep and execute the sale of our house. She was available anytime for counsel and we felt so well taken care of. Thank you, Emily!
