Testimonials

I loved working with Anastasia from start to finish. I found her to be fun, in sync, and on the level with regard to seeing properties with me. I went through two rounds of successful offers with her, and was impressed with her take-charge and thorough-going approach to getting inspections and estimates, negotiating price, and following through with the sale. I would confidently recommend her as an agent whether you're a first-time home buyer, like me, or a veteran. She's the best!

We had a great experience buying our second home from Anastasia. Anastasia. helped guide us through the transition of moving from San Francisco up to Marin. One of the many things that I liked about Anastasia was just the impression she left on me from the first phone call. She helps clients who are just beginning the home buying process and doing research on various areas in Marin, to those who are ready to execute. I called and spoke to Anastasia over the phone and she was lovely and suggested we meet and just chat and she offered to drive us around various areas we were interested in seeing- San Rafael, Novato, San Anselmo. Anastasia was patient with us throughout the process, extremely informative and not pushy. She really took into consideration our needs and gave us solid input on the homes we were seeing. She knows her stuff and has a keen eye when it comes to the details. She got us into the homes before the open house in many cases. We found our dream home and she wrote a great offer, which got us the house. Her knowledge of the Marin market is savvy and being that she was raised in Marin is a wonderful asset. She can discuss neighborhoods, schools, the vibe of each neighborhood, the houses in each neighborhood that she thinks will work for you. Her opinion and guidance were right on the money! She is still helping me with finding the services / contractors / decorators I need to get our home move-in ready. That is STELLAR SERVICE!! Thank you for all of your vast knowledge, help and skills, Anastasia. You really helped us transition. She helped us find movers, and even offered to help us find temporary housing while we are waiting to move into our new home! I would also like to add that Anastasia is a great networker- she genuinely enjoys connecting people together as I do. This was a HUGE HUGE help when closing a real estate transaction. I would say most of the top Marin agents know her and like working with her.

Anastasia spent the time necessary to help us buy our home. Our process took nearly a year and she was patient and knowledgeable all along the way. We always knew she'd be there when we needed her. She has a special knowledge base regarding financials that we found helpful. When we finally placed our first bid, we got our choice house, beating out five other bidders.

Anastasia and her team were simply amazing. Her energy, dedication and experience that they brought to the project made the difficult process of getting our home ready for sale not only made my job easier but resulted in a sales price hundreds of thousands of dollars over what we had even hoped for. I was particularly impressed with the people they have developed for supporting roles like inspectors, tradesmen and landscapers. The result was a streamlined process and a sale price that was 26% over asking.

This will be my family's 4th home bought or sold with Anastasia Sheldon. She made what can easily become a difficult experience a pleasant experience. With her guidance we were able to sell the home with maximum value for both the seller and buyer.

This has been quite an experience. Selling my house. A huge transition. When I made the decision to sell, I felt very alone. However, Anastasia started working with me I felt that I had a partner. She was always available. She’d push me when I needed pushing and backed off when it was appropriate. She was professional but wasn’t afraid to say, “I don’t know.” Her energy and enthusiasm are to be reckoned with. I felt Anastasia represented my interests so well that I would trust her to arrange a marriage.

What a great real estate Anastasia Sheldon is!. Anastasia represented my husband and I twice - buying a house and selling a house in Marin County. Anastasia's local knowledge of the market is very good, both on the buyer side and the seller side. When she was selling our house, she put in a lot of time and effort in making sure the house looked right and was priced right for the market. We ended-up getting an offer over asking that we were happy with, and more importantly, when some issues came-up post-transaction, she continued to work with us and advise us. Buying or selling a house is such an incredibly stressful experience, it's very very important to work with agents who actually know what they're talking about. Anastasia is definitely one of those agents.

Anastasia is a top notch realtor — I’m not an easy personality to work with and we were an effective team because she played to my strengths and made sure that I was happy. Anastasia’s smart as a whip, highly intuitive, has good taste and great contractor connections! I very much enjoyed working with her and felt confident in her recommendations regarding how to position my home to get maximum value. Totally satisfied with Anastasia’s strategies and execution and overall level of service to prep the property for sale, market it and achieve the desired outcome, which was no mean feat with CoViD shut/down part way into remodeling and the challenges of finishing the work and getting the property listed for sale during the partial re-opening. I’m sorry that I had to leave for Denver before the closing. Would love to have had some celebratory (albeit, socially distanced) downtime with Anastasia. Patty L. was great, herding me through all the many e-documents needing signing. She was inordinately patient with my delays yet very responsive when I made requests. Patty is also a very kind and warm person while still being a consummate professional.

This summer I made the unusually daunting choice to sell my home. Typically, this process, not only frightening, but also a hopeful moment of change in our lives, can be mind numbingly stressful. Luckily, there are some professionals that are extremely adept at making a home sale much more pleasant and sometimes downright painless. Probably the most important choice for a smooth transition through the minefield of details is a realtor. The fine woman I chose, Anastasia Sheldon, is a pillar of knowledge, organization and professionalism. Her integrity in assisting me with selling my home, made the sale not only problem fee, but really shined, anytime I needed a question answered, a problem solved, or a solution recommended. Every aspect of the sale was creatively and completely managed with confidence and care. With the added benefit of hindsight, I made just the right choice bringing Anastasia into my life. With the highest regard and respect, I recommend her as your Realtor when you next decide to buy or sell a home. She is a consummate professional in the complex world of real estate.

A friend recommended Realtor Anastasia Sheldon when my husband and I were shopping for a Realtor. We used to be kind of skeptical about realtors, but Anastasia changed that forever. I can honestly say that she worked SOOOO hard for us and had our best interests at heart at every step in the process. She managed every inspection (we were not in the state at the time) and when we were able to meet her at the property she always had hot coffee and yummy pastries/snacks for us. We lovingly nicknamed her "The Warrior with Treats!" It was such a relief to know that she was "on it!" so we never felt overwhelmed or uninformed. I happily recommend Anastasia to anyone in market to sell or buy real estate in Marin County. She is a fantastic negotiator, she responds immediately to any contact, and she anticipates problems so that she can navigate around them. She is five star!

In this competitive real estate market, it is critical to have a great agent to represent your needs.  I cannot recommend Anastasia enough. My offer was accepted over three other nearly identical offers.  It was Anastasia's professional extra touches that made the difference. In selecting an agent I would say the top qualities are 1) knowledge of the area and the process, experience and reputation, 2) ability to build a great team, and 3) responsiveness to your needs. Anastasia has the reputation--any time I spoke of her it opened doors.  She has extensive contacts and trusted teammates from the escrow officer, mortgage broker to general contractors for inspections and insurance etc.  Finally Anastasia learned my style and budget very quickly, so that when the opportunity appeared we were ready to fight for it.

Anastasia is amazing. She found us the most perfect home which is no small feat in the highly competitive Marin market. The home we finally decided on and purchased was on the market for 1 day. Just 1 day. She was full of thoughtful advice and always kept our best interests in mind. She knows so much about the entire process of buying a home from making a competitive offer to what inspections are necessary to how to close with ease. She really thought about our needs as a family and carefully selected homes that would work for us. When we are ready for our next house I will gladly ask for Anastasia to represent us.

Sarah Shock C.

My wife and I were first-time homebuyers in the toughest market there is. And to be honest, we were on the fence whether to even by or just continue renting. We appreciated Anastasia's honesty and genuineness. It didn't feel like she was trying to force us into the decision to buy a home just to get the commission. She was very good at responding through email, phone, or texts. 

Jeremy and Kathy S. 

Anastasia helped us find a better house than I ever thought we could afford in Fairfax. She was straightforward, knowledgeable and advised us how to make our offer more competitive without going over our budget. 

Megan Wilson S. and Erik S. 

Anastasia helped us buy a house in San Anselmo.  We found her to be very intelligent, knowledgeable, and hard working.  Most importantly, we were struck by her honest feedback throughout the process.  She seemed very interested in finding the right house for us, even if that meant a longer process for her.

Alan K and Kristin P.

Anastasia was simply fantastic!   Anastasia helped point us in the right direction and evaluate neighborhoods and was always honest and thorough with each and every property we visited.  She never added any pressure to the home purchasing experience and made it fun and a pragmatic process.  Once we finally found "the place" she was able to move incredibly fast to ensure our offer stood out from the rest and was first in line.  Her attention to detail and critical thinking during the inspection process ensured we asked all the right questions and were 100% satisfied with our final decision.  Not to mention, she was responsive and a great communicator during the entire time we worked together.

Anastasia recently brokered the purchase of a condominium residence for my mother. The purchase was complicated by a number of facts including an out-of-town purchaser, an institutional seller, and a lengthy due diligence process. Throughout the entire process Anastasia was patient, professional, and extremely knowledgeable. Her assistance with local contacts, and the due diligence was critical. The deal would not have happened without her.

Anastasia Sheldon represented me in the recent sale of my home. Anastasia was professional, efficient and supportive though out the escrow process.  I especially appreciated her help during the stressful move from my home.  I would be pleased to recommend her!
