Professional Philosophy

As a Marin County real estate market specialist, I feel enthusiastic and committed to my client's satisfaction. I know that by offering exceptional personalized service, an enjoyable experience and a successful outcome is assured. I enjoy providing complete information to my clients so they feel confident in their decision-making process. I consider that keeping in touch after the transaction is over--by providing updates on the real estate market in general, and especially in my client's town and neighborhood--is part of the follow-through process. I know that personal referrals are the life-blood of any business, and I express my genuine gratitude for leads on buyers and sellers in ways that are most meaningful to the referrer.

Testimonials: Kind Words from Great Clients

"I have worked with Meredith for the past five years selling 13 of my properties including two family homes, 10 investment condos, and a residential water-view lot. She knows her job very well and is outstanding in all aspects of the sales process. She's honest, easy to talk to and get along with, and is very good at her research and advice. She is always cool, calm, and collected in difficult situations. I couldn't be happier. She's the best!"

Bob B. Kentfield, for homes sold in Mill Valley, Corte Madera, San Rafael, Novato, Petaluma, and Sonoma.

“Meredith was truly exceptional in handling my 3 real estate transactions. She deals so well with other agents and prospective buyers. She has the rare ability to combine gentleness with strength. Her manner of dealing with me was both extremely professional and very kind. She made a potentially difficult process seem easy. I have the highest regard for her as a person and as a professional. I would like to nominate her for the ‘Real Estate Agent of the Year’ award!”

Lorna S. Novato

Meredith maintained contact with each of us (in southern California and London) throughout the process and always provided suggestions and alternatives to keep the process moving steadily forward. Her expertise and guidance were invaluable.”—

Donald L. Darlinda B. Sausalito

"Meredith was instrumental in all facets of the purchase of our new home in Mill Valley. We were very interested in a property that required a quick and clean closing and Meredith helped push all the way to the finish line. She is a kind and thoughtful person who puts as much care into the interaction with her clients as she does into the completion of the sales process. We would give her the highest of recommendations and would use her as our agent anytime. She is wonderful!”

Bejhan Gail R. Mill Valley

Shujie L. Mill Valley

Doug A. Larkspur

“Meredith helped me purchase my home in Mill Valley through the court probate process. I found her to be a very accessible and responsive agent, going way beyond what would be considered an average level of care and diligence.”

Heidi R. Mill Valley Tiburon

“From the moment we met Meredith, we felt an immediate connection with her. As our agent, we felt she was personally invested in our search for our first home. She did not push us one way or the other, but instead provided us with the knowledge to make the decision that was right for us.”

Jeff G. Tiffany de F. Mill Valley

“As a first-time home buyer, Meredith McCarty provided me with support and guidance throughout the sale. Meredith was sensitive to the special circumstances of my purchase and nothing was too much trouble. Her professionalism, from start to finish, made the process easier. Her knowledge of the housing market in Marin County was particularly helpful as a newcomer to the area (from London). Thanks to Meredith, I realized my dream of finding a house that I love.

Alison L. Sausalito

“We were extremely fortunate to work with Meredith McCarty as our Realtor in the purchase of our first home. Meredith knew the market so well and she guided us step by step. We can’t say enough about her professionalism and personal touch. As a result, we were able to purchase the home we loved in a seamless manner.”

Burke Linda W. San Anselmo

“What impressed us about Meredith is that she took the time to get to know us individually and as a couple in order to understand what our priorities were. Meredith was accommodating to our needs by being patient when we wanted to take our time, and then jumping through hoops when time was of the essence. She was present through every step of the way including the offer process, loan applications, home inspections and escrow. We would recommend Meredith to anyone who is looking to purchase a home in Marin County. Her attention to details and professionalism are first rate.”

Alan H. Rachel S. Corte Madera

“We spoke with many realtors before deciding to work with Meredith. Her professionalism, quick understanding of our needs and respectful attitude drew us to her. As we proceeded in our search for a home, she listened carefully to our goals and helped us to attain them without ever pushing us out of our comfort zones. When we found the home we were interested in, she expertly negotiated the deal…landing us a home for below the asking price. Meredith is very knowledgeable about the market, detail-oriented and full of sound advice. On a personal level, she was incredibly positive and warm throughout the entire transaction. We love her!”—

Adam Bethanie M. Sausalito

“You are a reassuring, kind, considerate and positively enjoyable person to work with. You were always available to provide guidance, as well as acting as a neutral third party. This was very meaningful and helpful to me. Furthermore, you’re a perfect blend of sensible and intuitive, always with a voice of confidence and optimism. I am very thankful to you for your dedication and commitment to the sale of my home.”

Helen G. Mill Valley

“I worked with Meredith in the difficult task of selling my deceased mother’s home. She came in with all the good ideas for getting the house ready for sale from the gardening to the carpentry that was needed, and to the staging that we ended up doing. All her efforts paid off when we sold the house shortly after it was put on the market. Working with Meredith was a pleasure, and her knowledge and attention to detail were impressive. I would be honored to recommend Meredith in any real estate regard.”

Jonathan B. Novato

“Meredith, our time with you was blissful and very easy. From the first day we met you, we connected with you. You were never the real estate agent who just wants to make a sale and treats you like a walking commission check. Instead, you were all about helping us find the perfect house. And when we did, you were behind us and made us feel confident during a scary and vulnerable time. To me you are what all agents should strive to be. You are so caring and sensitive that you truly made the experience of buying our first home something we cherish. I will definitely refer you to anyone I now wanting a fulfilling home buying experience. Thank you so much for coming into our lives.”—

Pia V. family, Mill Valley

“Throughout the six months of having my house on the market, through all the emotional ups and downs, all the technical and bureaucratic crises, Meredith was my constant support and advisor. When everything and everyone seems to conspire against me, she was there with her calm, practical, steady professionalism, clarity of mind, shining integrity an unwavering optimism…a fine realtor and friend in one person!”—

Brigitte M. San Rafael

“We had a great experience working with Meredith in purchasing a home. We were living in Texas and could count on Meredith’s diligence, communication and organization to keep both the home searching process and the actual purchase moving along without a hitch. On top of everything, Meredith went above and beyond by providing our family with information on schools, restaurants, and family-friendly things to do in Marin County. In the event we need to move (which I hope we never do again), we would definitely call Meredith!”—

Melissa S. Novato

“We would recommend Meredith to anyone! After a long search, we finally found the home we wanted, and she helped make sure the deal went through despite all the obstacles that popped up. She is a very patient, ethical person, and was fun to work with. She is also very knowledgeable about the local real estate market. Thank you, Meredith!”—

Daniel K. Janis A. San Anselmo

We received ‘above and beyond’ service with a real human touch. Our family will always be grateful for finding such a great family house and making the experience pleasant with minimum stress in today’s competitive market. We not only gained a great agent, but a friend for life.”

Anna M. Sausalito
