Testimonials

We were referred to Diane through friends who had several positive experiences working with her in real estate sales and purchases. We were immediately impressed with her attention to our unique concerns and needs. She helped us navigate the sale of our home and purchase a new home build. Our home sale and purchase all took place during a very challenging time of inflation and quick turnaround times in the market. While every home sale presents challenges, the buyer’s market was very competitive. We received the best advice and counsel every step of the way. Diane is professional, experienced and responsive to challenges. She negotiated effectively, achieving an exceptional outcome and walked lockstep with us in the challenges of a new home build. She is an advocate, wise counselor, and tenacious partner in overcoming challenges. I cannot recommend her highly enough. I know there are a v…

She is an advocate, wise counselor, and tenacious partner in overcoming challenges. I cannot recommend her highly enough. I know there are a variety of effective agents in the market, but Diane brings the giftedness, competence, and seasoned experience that places her on the next level. We were supported throughout and confident of not only the outcome, but also her integrity along the way. To work with her is to work with the best.

When the decision was made to sell our home, Diane was our first contact. As a former neighbor and teacher, she had a well-known reputation for being hard working, fair, honest and dedicated. From our initial meeting through closing she proved to be an experienced and patient guide. Within days of deciding to sell, Diane was at our house with reinforcements and supplies to aid us in preparing our home for sale. A potentially stressful process became a pleasurable and educational experience. The staging and professional marketing and photography presented our home at its best. Of course, almost every sale has moments of stress for the sellers. And this is where Diane’s guidance was invaluable. While we were in negotiations with the buyer, Diane was able to compile a current appraisal data chart and recommendations from trusted, experienced professionals that allowed us to make an informed…

Of course, almost every sale has moments of stress for the sellers. And this is where Diane’s guidance was invaluable. While we were in negotiations with the buyer, Diane was able to compile a current appraisal data chart and recommendations from trusted, experienced professionals that allowed us to make an informed decision. It was a turning point for us and led us down the right path. When post inspection requests were made, she truly listened to us and openly discussed options. While categorically stating she was “willing to go to bat for us,” our open discussion led us to a reasonable conclusion that was amenable to both parties. On a very practical level, we appreciated that all of our calls were answered within minutes, a rare occurrence these days. Throughout the process we relied heavily on Diane’s experience, professional contacts, data-driven recommendations, client support and level-headed approach. Diane certainly proved worthy of her reputation.

Diane Muench managed our home sale through a pandemic in a real estate market that has not been as fitful since the Visigoths shattered villa prices in Rome. She counseled patience and calm and kept us apprised of market conditions through the worst of the Covid months. During the time when a sale seemed problematic, she provided invaluable advice for preparing our home for showing, which included tasteful decor suggestions that made us wonder why we had not thought of them before. We listed our home in March 2021. She proposed a listing price calculated to generate the maximum interest with an eye toward generating above asking-price offers, no easy task when there are no “comps” for pandemic-era home sales. We will report simply that the strategy was a success. As importantly as navigating uncharted market conditions, Diane proved to be an utterly reliable communicator, seemingly alway…

Diane Muench managed our home sale through a pandemic in a real estate market that has not been as fitful since the Visigoths shattered villa prices in Rome. She counseled patience and calm and kept us apprised of market conditions through the worst of the Covid months. During the time when a sale seemed problematic, she provided invaluable advice for preparing our home for showing, which included tasteful decor suggestions that made us wonder why we had not thought of them before. We listed our home in March 2021. She proposed a listing price calculated to generate the maximum interest with an eye toward generating above asking-price offers, no easy task when there are no “comps” for pandemic-era home sales. We will report simply that the strategy was a success. As importantly as navigating uncharted market conditions, Diane proved to be an utterly reliable communicator, seemingly always available, highly ethical, and a thoughtful listener. And a final word—empathetic. Diane recognizes the vast gulf between selling “real estate” and selling “a home”. Homes embody the chapters of our lives. Little wonder emotions run high and sales transactions often become fraught. Diane earned our enduring gratitude as she helped us manage the turmoil of saying goodbye to the rooms where we raised three children, the garden where we buried their pets, and the kitchen around which all of our lives orbited for 15 years.
