"I was referred to Mai by one of my friends who is a Real Estate Broker in Austin,TX after he has researched a number of agents in the area. I was selling my property in the Royal Oaks area of  Encino,CA where I previously lived. I found Mai to be very professional  from the first time she called me. She went through the whole process in detail and was not in a hurry to make me sign the contract immediately. Once I decided to use her as my agent I found her to be extremely efficient, very responsive to my  questions. She would always answer my calls and if she was on another call would call back in a few minutes. She also advised me not only about the price but also about the quality of the individual or individuals who were interested in the property. I could not have asked for a better Agent than her because she helped me sell my property, not only at a price acceptable to me but also to a very erudite and wonderful couple who appreciated all the work that my wife and I had put into designing and building the house after the 1994 Earthquake. Anyone who uses Mai as an agent will find in her "The Best of the Best""

★★★★★
"Mai has represented our family in a number of transactions: sale of a house in Pasadena in 1994, purchase of a house in Glendale in 1994, sale of a house in Glendale in 2002, purchase of a house in San Marino in 2002, sale and purchase of 2 houses in San Marino in 2013, purchase of a home in Pasadena in 2012, purchase of a duplex in Silver Lake in 2012, sale of a beach townhouse in Huntington Beach, purchase of a replacement beach home in 2019 and of our forever home in Newport Coast in 2020. In addition, she also represented us in lease transactions for our Huntington Beach and Pasadena homes. All the transactions have been handled professionally, expediently, with no major inconveniences and issues. We were particularly pleased with her informing us about the home I bought in Pasadena THE DAY IT WAS LISTED on MLS so that we could make an offer before I had to face competition from others in a very hot seller's market. For our purchases, she got us very good deals and fair concessions from sellers. For our sales, we were pleased with the prices we received from buyers. The tenants she found for our rental homes are also great professional couples who paid rent diligently and maintained the homes in stellar condition. Mai actually went above and beyond and helped us obtain good home loans and excellent closing costs and insurance policies. We highly recommend her both as listing and selling broker. "

★★★★★
"We interviewed several Real Estate Brokers and chose Mai because of her extensive knowledge of the area, professional experience and excellent professional history. We found Mai and her team to be dependable to watch over our vacant home,  appreciate the fact that they did whatever was necessary to facilitate a transaction with speed and accuracy, that they were particularly competent with current communication techniques, and that they could convey the important aspects of the Calabasas area with respect to lifestyle, amenities, and statistics. We did value and appreciate the professionalism and expertise Mai extended, given difficult tenants while the house was being shown. Highest recommendation for Mai and her Team.  "

★★★★★
"Working with Mai was a true pleasure. Mai was quite knowledgeable regarding the current housing markets, my neighborhood and the local community. I have never sold a house and Mai made the process simple; I was kept abreast of everything and anything that was happening (brokers seeing my home, people who were interested, etc.). Mai is a true professional. If you are looking for an outstanding professional real estate broker who knows how to sell your home, look no further, Mai Matthesen is the broker you should use to represent your home. "

★★★★★
"Mai was great from start to finish. I am a first time buyer and this process was very overwhelming, but Mai made it easy. She handles high end real estate, and although my little condo was insignificant compared to her other clients, she still put 100% effort into helping me find my perfect home. Mai always had my best interest in mind through the whole process and she is someone you can definitely trust. She is dependable, professional, caring and trustworthy."
