This letter is to acknowledge the exceptional guidance, support, and dedicated work of Mahtty. She deserves the recognition of her skills, abilities, and true professionalism in the work she performs and her expert knowledge in her chosen career. When you make the decision to buy or sell a home, the entire process from beginning to end can be very frustrating, concerning, and stressful. But having a realtor who is personable, professional, and an expert in their field, can alleviate all of these concerns. Mahtty was that person for us! She is an excellent communicator, dedicated professional, and just an exceptional person. She provided us continual updates on the process of building our new home, guided us through the many, many documents we were required to sign, and provided us comfort and assurance every step of the way. We have bought and sold numerous homes over the last 20 years and have never had the care, concern, guidance, support, and personal
professionalism during the purchase/sale process…. until we met Mahtty. Thank you, Mahtty, for giving us the assurance, confidence, and ability to purchase our current home without stress, concerns, or frustration. Today, we are living our best life in the home of our dreams. This would not have been possible without the dedicated professionalism, kind, respectful, and sincere care, and brilliant expertise of Mahtty."

"Mahtty helped us buy our new home when we moved to the area. She was always accommodating and looked out for our best interests. Mahtty was very proactive throughout the buying process and was always accessible. Mahtty's professionalism is only trumped by her wonderful personality and kind nature. We not only got a new house but also made a lifelong friend in the process."
Buyers |Kevin & Abby
“Mahtty sold us our home in the early months of the pandemic. Mahtty always made herself available and worked hard to get us the things we needed to feel comfortable making such a big decision during an uncertain time. We are so grateful to have been able to work with her - her honesty and work ethic made the whole process a lot less overwhelming!”
Buyers |Nit & Nikki
​
"Our home had been listed for sale with not even one offer for almost 90 days. We were disappointed and worn out! As our listing was getting close to expiring we were inclined to take a few months off and try again later. We also discussed that if we were going to put our home on the market again we were going to interview 3 different Realtors before making our decision. We Learned about Mahtty's track record, success and awards and we choose to hire her and give it another shot. The difference was night and day! Mahtty and her assistant, Yvette, gave our home a fresh makeover and through their efforts in open houses and extensive marketing sold our home quickly for an excellent price. THEN after we accepted an offer both of them worked with us through the process of choosing to rent or buy. We finally choose to purchase another home and they worked diligently to make sure we closed quickly."
Sellers & Buyers | Olie and Jill
"Mahtty and her team supported our interests in all aspects! We wanted the best price, limited showings, a fairly fast sale, a buyer who would appreciate our view outside and our major remodel inside, and be agreeable to a delayed move out. Mahtty, her assistant Yvette and their team hit on all cylinders and achieved all of our goals. Her preparation of marketing media was very professional and wide reaching. She guided our house tune-up and de-clutter with an experienced eye, and listened to our input as well. We had been keeping an eye on Mahtty and her successes of selling homes in our area and then personally met her one day. We were not ready to sell yet, but our neighbors were, so we highly recommended her to them. She successfully handled that sale and when we were ready, we called her. Mahtty, Yvette and team would be great anywhere with expertise and dedication of the highest level. However... they are exceptional on The Hill!!!”

"It is with great enthusiasm that we offer a full endorsement of Mahtty Kowalik, Yvette and their team. They truly offer unparalleled five-star service and have our trust. Mahtty helped us a sell our home in Murrieta and purchase our new home in Rancho Santa Margarita. In each transaction, Mahtty exhibited skillful negotiation skills and due diligence which went far above and beyond what is required from even the best of real estate agents. Mahtty was able to locate fraudulent offers and save our family from many pitfalls involved in our real estate transaction. Mahtty approachability, large book of referrals, and constant one-on-one attention to our needs have earned her our trust and respect. She has become a trusted advisor and friend to whom we will refer all of our friends and family to in the future."
Seller & Buyer | D. Jacob, Attorney
​
“As an executive officer and the Chief Legal Officer of $1.5 billion annual revenue publicly traded company, I have had the opportunity to deal with many professionals in many different disciplines and Mahtty Kowalik is one of the best. I highly recommend her to anyone who is considering buying or selling residential real estate. Mahtty Kowalik was the primary reason my wife and I were able to recently acquire our dream house. Mahtty led us through a difficult contingent offer and purchase of a coveted property, which required us to sell our home in a very short time frame. Mahtty brilliantly staged our house for sale in day, making it look like a model home, generated significant demand on the first day of showing the house and was the primary driver to the successful sale to a buyer we selected from multiple offers we received after the first showing of the house. Mahtty’s skill and encouragement made our successful transactions possible. Mahtty was highly professional, diligent, resourceful and incredibly responsive throughout the process."

Mahtty
​
"I have nothing but praise for Ms. Kowalik! In a potentially contested trust matter, she worked well with all parties (including the attorneys) and kept her eye on the ball – to get the property sold for the highest price which was above the asking price. Thanks again, Mahtty!"

Mahtty
​
"Thinking about the sale of our family estate with multiple properties was a very scary and emotional one for me. Being a teacher, I have to say, Mahtty was very good at explaining documents; she could foresee what was coming and would prepare me and clarify for me so I didn't get confused, which made for a very smooth transaction. Mahtty was very organized and assisted me in being organized. Mahtty really gets to know the client and inspires the trust between Client and Realtor - she brings this to the profession, it's not something that can be learned in a class, it's just what she knows innately. Mahtty created a very cordial transaction between us and the buyer. I am amazed how she facilitated the transaction on the buyer's side so very professionally and honestly to the point that the buyer wrote our family an email thanking us. Mahtty really personalized this experience with the sale of our estate and I know I have a friend for life."
Seller | Olga (Estate Sale)

"Thank you Michelle Generaux for referring your Trust clients to me for the sell of the estate property. Thank you Olga and Family for your kind words"

"Mahtty took on the sale of our small, old family owned home in Redland that I inherited with my sister. Because it was rented for years, it needed updating and repairs. Even though this house was a long distance away, Mahtty worked with me more than I expected and treated this sale just as gracefully and skillfully as any high end expensive home she had listed at the same time. There were a lot of problems with this home being that is was in a Trust for me and my sister and it needed construction and repairs before selling. She diligently worked with contractors, attorneys, escrow and title to clear the way to a successful closed escrow on this family home and this chapter of our life. Her years and experience paid off for me. I have a friend forever with Mahtty!"
Seller | Chris Stevens (Estate Sale)

Response:
"Thank you so much for your trust and gracious letter. You were an excellent team player and I really enjoyed our long drives together out to the property in Redlands from OC. Friends for life!"

"Mahtty goes above and beyond. High energy. Helpful. Always willing to roll up her sleeves and do whatever is necessary. She sold our house in a bad market, before the listing even went live!"
Seller | S. Frank
​
"It doesn't matter whether it's a Home Sale or Purchase. Our Family found that Mahtty knows the Road to a Successful Sale. She knew how to fill the potholes on three different roads and offered a smooth ride to three different families. SCORE: Three Homes Sold on the Same Transaction. In our case, a "Living" Trust was involved. We five siblings, and even some of our spouses, were asking questions which had never been answered. Mahtty stepped forward and opened her phones and "e" mail lines and answered those questions. (The dull roar dropped to a quiet hum.) Our Sale sailed smoothly through. Couple the above information with one sure thing: Mahtty has a high ability in communicating (speaking, listening and questioning at the right time.). And when working with her clients, sooner or later, the word "Empathy "pops up, i.e., She just wants to help ......."
Seller | Richard B.
“Mahtty is a great Realtor whom we have already recommended to everyone we know. Our home sold quickly for more than the asking price, which was due solely to Mahtty’s efforts. Throughout the entire process, she was always available and ready with positive support and answers to all of our questions. Her marketing skills are exceptional. The brochure and video she produced to advertise our home, her efforts in staging our home for the open houses, her salesmanship skills, and her overall professionalism make her the most remarkable of realtors!”
Sellers | Steve & Leslie

"We had our home previously listed with another company for a Short Sale at and they were not able to solidify an agreement with the first & second banks. The efforts to sell were lack luster so we just let our contract run out after six months. We decided to contact Mahtty since we had seen her success in the area of homes sales and met with her to discuss our goals. Mahtty honestly explained it was not the right time to sell to get the price we needed. We kept in communication for 8+ months on the timing of the market until she gave the green light to proceed as a Standard Sale, not a short sale. Mahtty and her team are awesome, they came in and took control, offering excellent ideas on staging and cosmetic repairs that would enhance the curb appeal without a staging fee! They took quality photos by a professional photographer, created a YouTube video, held multiple open house along with 3,000+ flyers that were mailed out and over 1,200 electronic flyers to her VIP list. The first weekend, she got an offer well over our first short sale listing price which was great but financially we realized it would be best to pursue a short sale once again and asked her to do that for us. We now have successfully sold the home! We are very pleased with Mahtty and her very strong team's professionalism that give the extra effort. She stayed focused on negotiating with two banks to successfully receive approval for our short sale and worked diligently from the early morning into the late evenings in her endeavor to sell the home for top dollar. I highly recommend Mahtty and her team as your go to agent for any housing transactions."

"We are very happy to be able to put this chapter behind your family. Thank you for your trust and in knowing we would accomplish your goal. A short sale takes great team work and you both were excellent in providing anything we needed to continue facilitating the negotiations to a success settlement. A big hug to you both."

"If you need someone you can trust to represent you with confidence on any real estate concerns; you can count on my amazing five-star real estate agent, Mahtty! Rest assured the transition of buying or selling will be a lot easier than you think! When we decided to sell our house and move across-the-globe with a relocation, stress and anxiety kicked in. Can we profit from the house? How does it work? Being first-time homeowners, we had no clue where to begin. We called Mahtty right away and she walked us through the whole process. Her confidence and self-motivated nature quickly put me at ease. She is always ready to show up when we called and she relates to our situation at every level. She guided us, negotiated for us and worked with both parties so well, there’s hardly anything we had to do except sign some papers. Mahtty walked with us through our home and recommended what we could do to make the home show in the best light possible. As soon as we put the house on the market, it was sold in a weekend! In retrospect, selling a house was a breeze. Stress and anxiety? It’s been replaced with order and peace. Thank you so much Mahtty for assisting us in this huge transition we are going through. You understood it is not easy and we couldn’t have done with this much calmness (and at our leisure!) without your presence in this process."

"Thank you so much for the opportunity to assist you during this critical time in your lives. Moving across the street is not easy, let alone across the world. You two were a great joy to work with, and wow, what decorators you two are! My suggestions for staging your home came to life from our conversation; you two truly have a gift for decorating. This was critical to achieving the highest price in the neighborhood that we received. I miss you both and thank you again."

"We have been serving and helping the public for 20+ years as police officers and when we asked the bank to help us to modify our adjustable loan to a fix loan (because of a forced early retirement due to job injury), they declined us! They said pay or we foreclose. We didn't think a shortsale would work because we had a shortsale in process on a rental home and the real estate agent was not an expert so the bank foreclosed on us. Mahtty found out we were heading to another foreclosure and in 24 hours had an offer on our home that the banks agreed to and approved our short sale in 35 days. She was able to get our second of $150,000 negotiated as paid in full. We knew we had to have this done this year before the mortgage debt relief act ended. Mahtty also negotiated with the bank for funds to help us move out. We feel debt free and truly relieved for the first time in our married life and the stress is gone."

"Mahtty went above and beyond any of my expectations and was a true advocate in the short sale process. She ended up saving us a lot of money and moving the process along quickly and painlessly. I had the pleasure of working with Mahtty while purchasing our dream home in a short sale. I had heard so many stories about short sale nightmares, and my experience was anything but, all thanks to Mahtty. From the first time I met Mahtty, I could tell she was the perfect balance of personable and professional. She was unbelievably knowledgeable about the short sale process, seemed to have a great working relationship with everyone involved, and was always so responsive to my questions and concerns. Everyone I know who has gone through a short sale was genuinely jealous of our experience. I give Mahtty 100% of the credit. Thanks again for everything. You have been the most amazing agent ever. Can't wait to continue this friendship as neighbors!"

Mahtty showed us a number of great options and provided excellent advice regarding the pros and cons of each property. She was available whenever we needed her and responded to all our questions quickly which made for a smooth transaction with little stress. Mahtty used her resourcefulness to get us into the property we chose which had multiple offers. I highly recommend her for she is a true professional."

We felt completely at ease that she would do the very best for us and she did. Our recent home purchase was truly a stress-free, easy breezy transaction and I will always use her and refer her to anyone that needs someone who is professional, kind and easy going. I especially loved that she was not pushy and gave us space to think over our decisions with out any stress, yet at the same time she worked diligently and was quick to respond to all things so that we could get our little casita by the sea! Thank you, Mahtty!"

"Mahtty and her team are extremely competent and responsive. She will go above and beyond, looking at all aspects of the purchase and make sure all the details are covered. Our property inspection uncovered a plumbing leak, which she reported to the seller to fix within an hour of receiving the report, and then followed up giving us the plumber's invoice I think only a day later. When negotiating the price, she talked me into going lower and saved me a good chunk of change. After the sale, don't expect her to disappear. She gave us recommendations for painter and movers, both of whom we hired. The painters were great, excellent work. The movers were even better, best move ever (fast, friendly, careful - no damage, very attentive to details)."

My husband and I did not always see eye to eye on our wants and needs list, but Mahtty and Yvette stuck with us and helped us find a house we could agree about. Additionally, Mahtty is a very skillful negotiator who got us the price we wanted. She has a keen eye for the details. On top of all her skills, she has such a bubbly, friendly demeanor. It has been quite a pleasure working with Mahtty and her team! I look forward to working with her again in the future."

I was looking for a "fixer upper" house for my son and was trying to get a "short sale" so I was somewhat prepared for a difficult purchase---but nothing like it turned out. If I had not had Mahtty as my realtor--this great deal would never of gone through and we would not have been able to buy this wonderful house."

She treats everyone with the respect, honor and dignity they deserve. She’s fun and friendly, and also poised and polished. She coaches with so much integrity, care and realness. I am a better woman in more ways than just professionally from knowing her. She puts her clients first and will even delay closing up shop to make sure everyone gets all of their questions answered. She thinks ahead and anticipates client needs, and makes sure she plans ways to meet those needs before they even ask. I’m honored to work with her, if you ever get the chance to meet her, consider it one of your greater blessings."

"I wasn’t a believer in working with a coach, until I met Mahtty! As a top selling manager for Toll Brothers and two time National Sales Professional of the year for NAHB, she is full of great ideas. When I left Toll Brothers to step back into the resale market, Mahtty gave me the confidence to go out and know that I would be successful in resale. With her becoming my mentor/coach along with her vast knowledge in commercial, residential, and Investments sales, she has helped to elevate me to become a better Realtor consultant. Recommend, Recommend, Recommend.... Let Mahtty help you become the best you can be."
