Raquel Newman

My wife, Karin, and I wanted to express our deepest gratitude for your outstanding service as our real estate agent in purchasing 95 Bulkley Avenue, Sausalito. We feel incredibly fortunate that Zillow connected us with you. Your expertise and dedication turned what could have been a stressful process into an enjoyable and smooth experience. Your proactive approach and unwavering availability ensured that every aspect of our purchase was handled efficiently and effectively. You were always one step ahead, taking care of details before we even had to ask. From scheduling and completing inspections to maintaining constant communication with both the se...

Working with Raquel was the best experience I could have asked for! She was so responsive, present, and knowledgeable during my search. I felt like my preferences and goals were well understood. We went all out when I found a house I loved, and I got the first house I wrote on! I could not recommend her more highly.” “Raquel made our home buying experience so much better than the horror stories we hear about in today’s competitive market. She is responsive, creative, and always kept our interests as her top priority. Raquel understood exactly what we were looking for and saved us so much time by keeping us focused on homes that fit our criteria. We ...

The characteristic of Raquel that I appreciated the most was her responsiveness. As an individual new to the real estate industry/process this characteristic of hers provided tremendous value throughout the entire journey. She always made herself available even when she was having very busy days. Raquel provided me with a great deal of value whether it was explaining comps in the area, working out a strategy for an offer, or walking me through what each stage of the real estate process means. I feel as though when going through such a major decision in one’s lifetime such as a real estate purchase it is very important to have someone representing yo...

We were so lucky to have Raquel guide us through this process. She is extremely knowledgeable about the area and went out of her way to give us tours of the different neighborhoods to get a better idea of where we would want to live. She is very responsive and we were able to reach her by phone even very late in the evening. She continuously looked out for properties that fit our preferences and made numerous showings for us that fit our schedule. Raquel would give us her real opinion and advice on homes and it always felt very genuine. I would highly recommend her as a realtor because not only is she incredible at her job but she’s also a great per...

We hired Raquel and never looked back. She was patient, honest and trustworthy. We felt she had our best interest in mind when she represented us and in the end, we bought our dream home! Highly, highly recommend Raquel!

Raquel is personable, diligent, highly competent and highly motivated. She worked patiently with us for several months while we slowly refined our needs in a very difficult sellers' market, and explored several different geographic areas. She responded quickly to our requests and eventually found us the ideal property in Southern Marin. You will not regret working with her.

My husband and I recently purchased a beautiful new home in San Rafael with the help of our amazing agent, Raquel Newman from Vanguard Properties. We had been house hunting on our own for about three years when we met Raquel at an open house she was hosting in Sonoma. We chatted with her for about fifteen minutes and we knew very quickly that we were going to commit to her. We have bought and sold numerous properties over the years and we have met some great agents along the way. But, it was Raquel’s unmatched ambition, enthusiasm and excitement for her new profession, that simply floored us. She was totally committed to the process, very responsive...

Raquel is a fantastic real estate agent, I highly recommend her. Her knowledge of the area, her attention to detail, and her great relationships with other area agents helped us make the perfect offer on our dream house. She is readily available to answer questions, and makes you feel like you are her only client (when in reality, she's working like mad behind the scenes with multiple clients at all hours of the day). She's also just a really fun person. I feel lucky we found her and recommend her without hesitation.

We are grateful for all of Raquel’s help and expertise in selling our Bay area home. She left no stone unturned! Raquel quickly got word out about our house being on the market with the brokers and new potential buyers. All of the stress of time was removed, as she took care of all of the necessary appointments both scheduling and being present. We were confident in all decisions, as Raquel took great care to communicate each step and all of our options throughout the entire process. Raquel always kept our best interest as a priority. Thank you for helping us to sell our house at the first broker showing and over asking price - our expectations were...

We worked with Raquel recently on the purchase of our home and the experience was smooth, flawless, and pleasant. Raquel’s strong attention to detail and professionalism made the transaction effortless and we look forward to working with her again.

Raquel was a pleasure to have as our real estate agent. I was incredibly impressed with her goal oriented action. She is super responsive, friendly, and professional. She obtained a full asking price offer within 2 days of listing our home. I will definitely be referring my family and friends to Raquel.

Working with Raquel as my realtor was a fantastic experience, thanks to her vast network that connected me to the perfect home. She provided me with detailed, easy-to-understand information on every listing, making me feel confident in my choices. Raquel always responded quickly to my calls and emails, addressing every question with care. Her upbeat and positive attitude truly made the entire process enjoyable and stress-free!

Raquel is the best Realtor I've worked with, among the many purchases and sales I've gone through over the decades. She is truly top-notch. Raquel has excellent attention to detail, immediate responsiveness, a unique passion for the job, and most importantly, extensive knowledge of the market. She stuck with us through a long buying process that involved multiple offers and countless house tours. She went above and beyond to provide a bespoke analysis of each opportunity - something you don't see with other buyside Realtors. We felt that we were in very capable, experienced hands with Raquel, and will look no further when we eventually sell our home...

Raquel is truly the reason we have our home today. She was knowledgeable about the homes as well as the area and was incredibly thorough. Whether it was weekdays or weekends, she was there for us. She helped guide us during the whole process and was never pushy in making us feel like we had to make any rash decisions. We would absolutely buy our next home with her as well as recommend her to anyone we know.

Outstanding! Best real estate agent we have ever had. We highly recommend highly recommend her. You will not be disappointed. She knows her stuff and is clearly well respected in the industry. She nailed are deal down in 5 hours and both us as the sellers and the buyers were more than satisfied.
