Meet Marlene

CA DRE# 01379785

With over 20 years of experience in the Bay Area real estate market, I have had the privilege of representing buyers and sellers across Oakland, Piedmont, Berkeley, and the surrounding cities of Alameda and Contra Costa counties. My real estate journey began in 2003, but my foundation in customer service, time management, and problem-solving was built long before—as a customer service manager in the financial sector. These skills, combined with my deep passion for helping others, have shaped me into a trusted and results-driven real estate professional.

Ridgemont Neighborhood

Your Neighbor And Real Estate Expert

For over 20 years, Ridgemont has been more than just where I live—it’s where I’ve built friendships, watched families grow, and shared in the pride of our beautiful community. Over the years, I’ve had the privilege of serving our neighborhood, as part of the HOA Board and now as a dedicated member of the Architectural Control Committee (ACC).

My commitment to Ridgemont goes beyond selling homes. I believe in protecting and enhancing the value of our properties, ensuring our streets, green spaces, and homes reflect the high standards we all cherish. As both a neighbor and a real estate professional, I understand what makes this community special—and I’m passionate about helping others appreciate it, too.

When you work with me, you’re not just getting a Real Estate Agent—you’re getting someone who has walked these streets for decades, knows every view and curve in the road, and is deeply invested in keeping Ridgemont a place we are all proud to call home.

Rooted in Ridgemont

If you ever have questions about our neighborhood—or are thinking about a move—I’d love to be a resource.

Marlene did a fantastic job in helping sell our home at a price that was significantly above what we went to market with.
