Testimonials

“…Nina has done considerable work behind the scenes, both on the lease and the sale, and she often went the extra mile to make sure things were just right. Since we lived in another state, this was very important to us since it would be very difficult to arrange and coordinate the many projects, repairs, showings and inspections living out of town. But Nina did it all and in top notch fashion I might add! Another thing about Nina is that she is EXTREMELY well organized and prompt in answering texts, phone calls and emails. I dont think I have ever dealt with another agent who is so ” On Top of Things” as Nina! And believe me, I have dealt with many of them over the years, being a real estate broker myself for almost 20 years…

I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend Nina Kirkendall to be your real estate agent, either as a buyer or a seller. Her knowledge, integrity, professionalism and communication skills are all outstanding! And I would be pleased to talk to anyone who is considering hiring her, and I wouldn’t hesitate to work with her again in the future!”

“We believe we have made the right decision to let you be our sales agent to selling our house in San Marino recently.

Through our experience to cooperate with you, we felt and appreciated very much, not only from your dedication, hard working, but also doing the job with mind and strategic making. Without your efforts, we can not imagine we may selling the house within 15 days!

Again, thank you and taking care yourself.”

“Nina did a fantastic job in guiding my wife and me through the entire process of selling our home. When we first met her, she gave excellent advice about comparable sales in our area and helped us arrive at a well-positioned listing price. Next, she advised us to have our home staged and referred us to a good staging company. She also recommended an excellent handyman to do some needed repairs, put us in touch with the City of San Marino to obtain the necessary compliance certificates/permits and smoke detectors, showed the property on numerous occasions over a period of over 50 days, acted as our advocate in negotiating the offer that we received, provided us with a schedule of critical deadlines that we needed to meet, and helped to assure that the transaction closed in a timely manner. Nina identified an all-cash buyer for our home and worked with the escrow company as necessary to assist us in closing the transaction, with no problems or delays. Nina’s advice during the negotiation process with the buyer was critical, and we couldn’t have closed the transaction without her timely, creative and excellent suggestions.

Nina is a seasoned real estate agent and is a pleasure to work with. She is personable, courteous, smart and an excellent communicator. She maintained constant communication with us by telephone, e-mails and text messages and was always available to answer questions, no matter what time of day.

To reiterate, we were absolutely pleased with our experience in selling our San Marino home, were totally satisfied with Nina’s expertise and performance, and do not hesitate to recommend her to anyone looking to sell or buy a home in the San Gabriel Valley area.

If any recipient of this e-mail needs any additional information about our excellent experience with Nina and Berkshire Hathaway, please do not hesitate to contact the undersigned.”

“Nina is the best real estate agent ever. She sold our home in Montrose and found us our home of 15 years in south pasadena.
She just helped us sell that home and we did well. Integrity is the most important virtue in an agent. She’s a cut above the rest. She knows the market, is personable and went to USC. She recommended our agent in the Bay Area and she’s great but not Nina! What more can I say about Nina? She’s the best!”

“I keep hearing LOTS of good things about Nina!!”

“I referred Nina to an important client of mine who had a residential real estate requirement. Since I am in real estate on the commerical side, I am cognizant of the qualifications and skills needed to be successful in this challenging market. Nina exceeded all of my expecations. She communicated throughout the process and accomplished the task at hand. I highly recommend Nina to anyone seriously looking to sell their home and wanting to work with such an affable professional.”
