I have personally worked with Sara on four properties in Marin and referred her to many friends - I'm telling you she is life changing! She has the network and resources to save you time and money when real estate can often be stressful and overwhelming. Sara takes time to educate clients which builds confidence while reassuring and respecting your decisions which strengthens trust. I never knew how important an excellent real estate agent could be until I met Sara! Thank you for everything.

  • "We highly recommend Sara Downs as a realtor. From the start, she was incredibly responsive and made us feel comfortable throughout the entire process. Sara stayed on top of all deadlines and was proactive in a calm, non-pushy way. In a competitive market, she expertly guided us with knowledge and confidence, all while ensuring we never felt pressured. She kept us informed every step of the way. Even post-sale, Sara went above and beyond by providing us with a wealth of contacts and vendor recommendations, helping us settle into our new home faster. If you’re looking for a friendly, diligent, and knowledgeable realtor, we can’t recommend Sara enough! "

"Bottom line: Sara helped us find the perfect home! She deeply listened to our needs, shared properties that could realistically work for us, and helped us understand the Marin landscape. When it came time to make an offer, her advice was golden - we got an incredible deal. She recommended we act quickly and we avoided a conflict with a much higher offer. She referred trust and real estate attorneys and a contractor who all jumped right in to help us meet our deadlines and were super professional. We’d highly recommend Sara as your agent.”

    "Sara was an amazing real estate agent! As first time buyers, we appreciated how Sara thoroughly walked us through the process with patience and had our backs, ensuring we did our due diligence before committing to a home. She always made herself accessible which was especially important as the market we were looking in worked on tight timelines. Would 10/10 recommend Sara as she helped us find our dream home that was perfect for us!"

"We just completed our second tricky transaction with Sara in over the course of five years and couldn’t be happier with the results! Sara is the type of realtor that you want and need as a prospective buyer and seller. She is knowledgeable, patient, and really takes the time to understand her clients. She has spent more time convincing us to not buy certain houses than to buy them…which speaks for itself. Sara truly wants her clients to be happy and looks out for their best interests. She was a tremendous resource and sounding board for us through all the ups and downs of navigating complicated Marin real estate. We have met numerous agents over the years and Sara is simply the best. Save yourself the trouble and just work with her, you’ll be glad you did!"

"We’ve sold two house with Sara. With the first one, I quite literally would have not made it through without her. My father had just passed away and my mother was being moved to a nursing home. What should have been an emotionally exhausting experience was seamless from the beginning. She is incredibly knowledgeable, thorough, detail-oriented, and her experience and wisdom throughout the process were second to none. During an uneasy time, she remained calm, focused, and guided me through what would have been a very stressful process with any other realtor. She staged the home beautifully, was spot-on in her approach to pricing and negotiating, and truly knows her clients so she can offer a personal and as stress-free experience as possible. We loved her so much we recently ended up using her to sell our own home, and it was just as seamless as the first time. I have and would recommend Sara to anyone looking to buy or sell in Marin County, and look forward to working with her in the future. She is a true gem!"
