I am a "Full Time" agent. Customer Satisfaction is my goal! So when you are looking for that Real Estate agent with a personal touch, professional approach and a client-first mentality, I would like to be "Your Real Estate Agent for Life." Whether it's a "first-time" buyer, new construction or a relocation - my previous experiences and current expertise allow me to approach each and every client as an individual and exceed their expectations.

If you are looking for your first home and aren't sure where to begin, give me a call and I will be happy to get you started toward/and into your new home.

Personal Background

As a lifelong Pittsburgh resident (the last 30 of which have been in the North Hills), you can count on my expertise on many Pittsburgh neighborhoods.

Having transitioned from a career in the healthcare industry (which included serving my country as a flight nurse during the Vietnam War) to real estate over 8 years ago, I bring a very "client satisfaction first" approach to my business.

As an animal lover, I share my home with three dogs and four cats rescued through my volunteer work with Animal Friends.

In my spare time, and when weather permits, I love to spend time with friends and family out on the golf course!

Testimonials

Being first time home buyers, we were thinking that the process of finding and buying was going to be very intimidating. Because Marlene did such a great job clearly explaining everything, the process was instead, very exciting! We felt very comfortable knowing that she was our advocate at each step along the way. Marlene is a great communicator, very knowledgeable, and will be our realtor for any selling or buying that we do in the future!

I have bought and sold 2 other houses in addition to this one and I want you to know that working with you was the best reality experience I have had.You are knowledgeable, capable and competent. A first rate real estate agent. I also appreciated the extra things you did to ensure that everything went smoothly. If I ever buy or sell again, my first call will be to you.

- Kelly (2014)

I have known Marlene for almost 50 years. She is one of the most honest person I know. Her integrity is beyond reproach. She brings this honesty and integrity when helping to find the perfect home. When we were buying a new home, she was available after work and on weekends for months on end. When we were unable to find the perfect home. She helped us to buy the property to build a home. I would refer anyone looking for a home to her.
