"The experience with Marcia was excellent. We couldn't ask more from our realtor. At the end of the process, we felt very lucky to have her because she made sure everything went smoothly and that we always felt comfortable and happy."

★★★★★
"Marcia did a wonderful job for us. We bought the Aldford house thru Marcia 8 or nine years ago. We were very happy to have Marcia sell it for us. We could not be more pleased."

"Marcia Kim led me through my first home sale experience with very little stress or uncertainty. In fact, she helped me complete the full process of listing, showing, and selling my house in less than two weeks! The home was photographed, staged, and shown in a single weekend and my accepted offer came in over the asking price. She helped me understand and execute all parts of the process, including holding me accountable for completing all essential documents and paperwork. I came out of this process with enough money to put 20% down on a new home with funds left over. I am truly thankful for such a smooth and easy selling experience, and her desire as a realtor to make the seller come out happier than they could ever imagine."

"I recently decided to look at buying a new home, not entirely sure that the time was right. I reached out to Marcia Kim, having gone through the process with her once before. Marcia not only humored me in the discussion of selling, but helped me to realize that it was the right time financially. She created a search for me based on my personal preferences and future desires, using what she already knew about me as a client and friend. I found my perfect home after looking at only three listings, and she immediately jumped into action for me. Marcia exhibited excellent communication and urgency. She paid close attention to detail and was able to negotiate with the seller for me to fully benefit. In the end I got more house, more yard, and the area where I always wanted to be. I can’t imagine a better realtor experience for not one, but two home purchases!"

"Marcia Kim has been a true delight to work with from beginning to end. She is full of warmth and wisdom. She supported my husband and I to purchase our very first home within just a few short weeks of looking (EVER!) She guided and (didn't make us feel pressured once) and really tuned into our exact wants and needs."
- Silvy K.
★★★★★
"Marcia was great. She continues to be great and holds our hands throughout this journey of first homeownership. Your organization should be very proud of her work, and I hope you guys will give her a huge bonus. There is so much good I can say about her."

★★★★★
"Last year, my husband and I tried the home buying process with another realtor, but after a dozen failed offers, we were ultimately unsuccessful and had to renew our rental lease for another year. We connected to Marcia Kim towards the end of that effort, and she encouraged us to reach out when we were ready to try again next year. Last December, we connected again, and with admittedly cold feet, we once again started up the process. While expecting to end up in a rental again, Marcia encouraged us to be optimistic. Our first week of house hunting went just about as expected, but the second week she convinced us to view a home somewhat out of our target area. We weren’t expecting the seller to be home, but this may have been the key to our success as Marcia was able to chat with her and create a positive impression of us. The following Monday, she delivered the news that we finally had an accepted offer! Marcia was so warm and friendly to us and everyone we worked with, supporting us throughout the entire process. She made sure we were taken care of and that closing was as smooth and stress-free as possible. She’s always creating and building strong relationships with everyone we could possibly need to interact with! She’s happy to give us thorough explanations on the parts of the process that were more confusing to understand. I’m so glad we decided to work with Marcia. We could never have expected to successfully become first-time homebuyers in this location and market, but Marcia went above and beyond to make our dreams come true!"

★★★★★
"I just wanted to take a moment to relay our sincerest praise for Marcia's role in the sale of our Mother's home. We truly appreciate her patience with us throughout the process, as this was a difficult time. She was knowledgeable, prepared and her guidance throughout the selling process made it effortless for us. We have never sold a home before, and she was quick to respond to each and every question. And her staging skills created an amazing presentation of the home. She was absolutely dedicated to providing us with outstanding service and we feel so fortunate to have Marcia as our agent and friend, forever!"
- Jaclyn & Craig B.
★★★★★
"Marcia was the only choice for us. She exemplifies what you expect in a Realtor when making the decision to sell your home. She guided us along the way with fantastic suggestions to accentuate our home and market it to our buyers. She went above and beyond, not only because of our friendship but because she is a professional and put in the extra effort to make this transition smooth and painless. I recommend her wholeheartedly to anyone looking to sell in the future and we sing her praises to everyone we know. She facilitated a sale to bring top dollar for our home in half the timeline we expected and we are completely satisfied with the results."
- Chris & Ana
★★★★★
"I can't imagine a more helpful real estate agent than Marcia. This was not my first property I purchased but it was certainly the easiest and quickest in large part because of her. She contacted and coordinated all parties involved in a timely and courteous fashion. She took time out of her busy schedule to personally walk me through closing by text, email, and phone calls to painlessly expedite the process. Her performance was no less than stellar! I would highly recommend her to anyone purchasing a property anywhere and feel she is not an asset that you could operate without. She will be the first person I contact for any and all of my property investment needs."
- Michael P.
★★★★★
"My realtor was Marcia Kim. She is a businesswoman who knows what she is doing. She walked me through every step of the process, managed my expectations, and got me everything I wanted. My home was the biggest purchase I have ever made and I was nervous about it. She didn’t sugar coat it, she didn’t let me settle and she fought for me. If you want a realtor who will tell you the truth, fight for what you want, and walk you through the stress of buying a house Marcia Kim is the choice. I love my home and when I buy/sell in the future there is nobody else I would call.
Thank you, Marcia!"

★★★★★
"This is the third property Marcia has handled for us. She is professional, knowledgeable and we have found we can count on both her perception and analysis of the market"
- Jon and Jennifer G.
★★★★★
"Our experience with Marcia Kim is best explained by reference to the whole experience. A holistic thinker, she takes into account the purpose, value proposition, needs/results desired on both sides, and the process (offer, negotiations) to ensure a smooth & successful transaction/experience. If it were not for her we wouldn't be back in the real estate business of things in this highly dynamic & competitive market. "
- Krishna & Viji
★★★★★
"Wow, we do not know where to start. First, Marcia's patience, attitude, and willingness to meet our needs were top-notch. We can easily say that if it was not for her, we would not have found our house. She was able to suggest builders that we never considered, and in the end, we went with one that she suggested. After we signed our contract with our builder, her ability to keep us informed and help relate our concerns was, again, extremely valuable.
Overall, we would give her a 10+ out of ten rating!"
- Nathaniel and Megahn K.
★★★★★
"Marcia Kim is AWESOME! We have had the opportunity to work with Marcia 3 times already, and she keeps getting better and better! Marcia's knowledge and understanding of the Austin Marketplace make a big difference during what is usually a very stressful process. We recommend Marcia, and if you are looking for a house, you don't have to look for an agent too...Marcia is your way to go :)"
- Jesus C.
★★★★★
"When one is buying a house and putting close to a million in the crazy Austin market, people are looking for 2 things - trustworthiness and miracles. While I don’t believe in miracles, Marcia was an exemplary example of trustworthiness. I am so glad to have met her and made a new relationship. She was not just professional, had a sense of urgency about everything, and guided us but also made sure she knew us well. Buying sitting afar is just not easy, but she made sure it is as easy and comfortable as buying in person. Thanks to her that we are lucky to have two homes in Austin today.
I have recommended her to many other friends, and I think two have already bought homes with her too. She is an asset to your organization, and I am forever grateful for a friend who introduced us. "
- Rajni C.
★★★★★
"Marcia Kim is so much fun to work with when buying/selling a house. In addition, she was a tough negotiator on our behalf and had the experience to handle all the moving parts and sometimes difficult personalities that make the process of buying/selling a home stressful. I absolutely LOVE working with her."
- Mark A. G.
★★★★★
"Marcia Kim is an AMAZING Realtor! She’s super FUN, professional, and awesome to work with. She was extremely patient with us, helping us find the perfect property. She helped my husband and I buy our dream house on over a 1-acre property in Austin during one of the most competitive real estate markets imaginable! The way she negotiated the deal and knew how to “sweeten the pot” to the Seller’s was the reason our offer was accepted. We have a great relationship with Marcia, and we highly recommend her to anyone looking to buy or sell a home."
- Shannon G.
★★★★★
"Marcia was referred to me by my colleague who had a great experience with her. I cannot stress enough how much she took into account our requirements and preferences. When we sent her a list of interesting homes, she immediately set up appointments without delay, and we toured them within 24 hours! She has a sense of urgency which is so vital in a market like this. She showed us what to look out for in homes and explained the entire home buying process, which was useful for first-time buyers like us. She was the one who suggested we tour the house we finally bought (we had not sent her this listing as we had not even come across it). Even though she was not able to be present during our final walk-through as she was on vacation, she ensured that we were not left alone and sent Rosalia Chiu, who was wonderful (and asked the right questions), to accompany us. Marcia made our home buying process enjoyable. Highly recommend her to anyone looking to buy a house!"
- Mrinalini & Sumukh
★★★★★
"Marcia Kim at Compass really rocked it! This was our second time using her as a real estate agent. Her pointers, knowledge, professionalism, and ability to calm my nerves over exceeded my expectations each time. Grateful to have found someone that listens to our needs and has our backs. THANK YOU, Marcia!"
- Diana G.
★★★★★
"From start to an amazingly rapid finish, Marcia helped me every step of the way and made a quick close a reality rather than a dream. She handled everything with an expert touch and ensured that the property was staged, photographed, and listed in a way that brought immediate buyer attention and a rapid offer. This makes the third property we’ve bought or sold with Marcia’s help, and my family and I are grateful for all her assistance over the years."
- J. Beckett
★★★★★
"My husband and I are happy that we were fortunate to work with Marcia Kim. She is so efficient and meticulous! Our house sold on the first showing. She has such a positive, happy attitude, and I love her energy. We're incredibly grateful to have worked with her."
- Tracie B.
★★★★★
"Marcia Kim was and IS an absolute pleasure to work with! She walked us to the whole process very smoothly and holding our hand (virtually, of course), keeping us informed all the time and negotiating on our behalf. She always took care of our business and did above and beyond to make sure we were comfortable with buying our house. If you need someone that cares, that communicates, and that will make sure your business is her business, don't hesitate to call her. Thank you, Marcia!"
- Claudia Ar.
★★★★★
"I’ve worked with Marcia Kim for every purchase and sale that I’ve done. She’s been great to work with, and pretty much has been available at all times, before, during, and after every transaction for any question. I would highly recommend her as she is resourceful, has a good network, and really cares about her clients."
- Ilia A.
★★★★★
"Our agent, Marcia Kim, was very quick, on top of things, responsive and helped a first-time buyer like me to feel better about the complicated process. She was very thorough, provided feedback and documentation needed in very short time frames. She told me she's very good at winner bids at the beginning of the process and she was not joking. We bid on two houses (decided to back out on the first one), and we won the bid both times. I highly recommend Marcia for your housing needs in Austin."
- Helen S.
★★★★★
"Marcia Kim was a great asset in getting our property marketed and sold. I did not know who to go with for listing the property since I am from out of town. Marcia helped my niece and her husband purchase a home a couple of years ago. She was a great help to them with their purchase, and my niece recommended Marcia to me. I found her easy to work with and very helpful in getting everything lined up and ready to go live with the listing. I would certainly be happy to recommend her to others looking to sell their property."
- Connie K.
★★★★★
"Our experience with Marcia was so amazing! From the very beginning of her listing appointment, until closing, it has been a non-stop communication from texts, phone, and email. She's not afraid to tell us what needed to be done. She gave reliable advice, and her knowledge of real estate and the market was rock solid. We trusted Marcia over other agents. She even came to stage our home using her things as well! She also stayed late and made sure the photos and listing were perfect. Because of her guidance, she made us much more money on the sale of our home! Multiple offers the first weekend! We wanted a straight shooter Realtor with knowledge and heart, and we found that in Marcia. We will most definitely recommend her and already have! Thank you Compass and Marcia Kim!"
- Hae M.
★★★★★
"I am very happy that Marcia Kim reached out to me nearly a year ago. Having just moved to Austin, I was interested in buying a home sometime down the road. When things got serious as my lease was expiring, she was instrumental in my search process. Not only did she advise on areas that were a good fit for me, but she sought out options based on my personality, interests, and lifestyle. I felt that Marcia wasted very little of my time showing me homes that were not a good fit. She was excellent at communication throughout this entire process, and I feel that she had my best interests in mind. When I was faced with options that I liked, Marcia advised on what homes would be best by projecting the location, future growth, and resale value. Not only did Marcia stand by me in all parts of the home buying process, but she was proactive in getting my builder to make changes in the home and include important features in their offer. I felt that Marcia explained the process very well and was fully invested in me. She made me aware of all timelines and prompted me to act when it was necessary (something I appreciate). Most importantly, she made this process fun! Her personality meshed well with mine, and I always looked forward to meeting with her. I feel that she is not only my Realtor but also my friend. I would certainly recommend her to anyone interested in buying a home."
- Nick M.
★★★★★
"I contacted Marcia Kim in mid-July to ask her to help me in selling my home. She was available for us right away and came to check out the house, provided recommendations and ideas that we followed and the house sold in under four days from listing. She even took the time to bring her own frames and decorations to place around the house and everything looked great. This is not the first deal we work with Marcia, and the main reason why we will keep working with her is how fast she takes action (she had an open house just a couple of days from listing the house) and her positive and enthusiastic personality. During the negotiation process, she kept us informed right away and provided her advice. At closing, she was there with us. I am always going to recommend to work with Marcia Kim to my friends and family."
- Aldo D.
★★★★★
"I can't recommend Marcia highly enough. She helped me price my house for sale and staged it quickly and easily. Marcia's excellent advice and eye for detail helped to ensure an attractive offering on the market and helped to secure that negotiations with the buyer were pain-free. There was never any doubt that Marcia was an effective advocate on my behalf. All of her communications were timely and on-point, and the whole process from start to finish was remarkably easy. I would use Marcia's services again in a heartbeat, and wouldn't hesitate to point friends and acquaintances to her for real estate purchases or sales in the Austin-area in the future."
- John B.
★★★★★
"We chose Marcia Kim to sell our home after reading several raving recommendations about her on Nextdoor. We also wanted to use a Realtor from a reputable real estate company; Compass. Marcia is very pleasant and was so positive about selling our home. She works hard, is always \on,\" no matter time or day. And she sold our home FAST finding us the buyer that would love our home as much as we did."
- Marci S.
★★★★★
"We love Marcia!! My husband and I worked with Marcia Kim to buy our home and really can't say enough good things about her. She is knowledgeable, approachable, personable, endlessly patient, and incredibly generous with her time. She answered every question and explained every form and every part of the process clearly and thoroughly. We highly recommend her (I already did)."
- Belinda and Jesse
★★★★★
"Working with Marcia was fantastic. Buying a house from over a thousand miles away can feel kind of scary. Not with Marcia! She took the time while we were in town to look at multiple options. Once we found a home we loved, she made the buying the home so easy. She was an advocate for us and kept us updated at every turn. She was always easy to reach and was on top of what was going on. It felt like working with a friend. Marcia is an exceptional real estate agent with a heart!"
- Summer B.
★★★★★
"I had an absolutely terrific experience buying a home with Marcia Kim! She came recommended from friends, and I will be telling all my friends to buy a home with her as well. Marcia made the home buying process simple and fun. She was always available, responded to any questions immediately, and was a truly fierce negotiator. She also listened to my needs and had many recommendations and suggestions to offer. I was able to close on a house in a very competitive market within a month and get the best deal possible. She was there to help me every step of the way and continues to check-in, even after the closing. Marcia truly cares about her clients, and she knows and loves Austin. I cannot say enough good things about my experience with her and Compass."
- Erina D.
★★★★★
"Working with Marcia Kim at Compass exceeded any of my expectations. As a second time homebuyer, I was familiar with some of the process but not all, as it had been over 9 years since our last home purchase. Right away Marcia was incredibly friendly and took time to understand all the dynamics of a \buy and sell\" process that would allow us to move into our dream home while negotiating both our busy professional lives and a 2-year-old toddler! Marcia had pivotal insight in the steps we needed to take in order to get our old home sold FAST. I truly believe that without her professional help we never would have had a chance at pulling it off. Marcia was willing to meet at any time, and respond to texts/emails/phone calls at any hour of the day to assure us that we were comfortable with where we were in the process. Maybe the best thing I can say is \"SHE HAD OUR BACK.\" Never was there a moment where I had any doubt as to the behind the scenes work she was doing to make sure we got the best offer on our old house, as well as the best price and experience in purchasing our new home. Since the completion of our experience with Marcia, I have done nothing but gloat to anyone who will listen about the amazing experience we had with her. We consider her more than just our agent now but truly our friend. "
- James Y.
★★★★★
"I have worked with other Realtors in the past and MK is by far the best ever! We met her years ago at an open house in Twin Creeks. We ended up leasing for the next two years. During those two years, MK kept in touch through email and even calling us personally just see how we were doing every so often. Finally, we made up our minds to start looking again. We knew exactly who to call... We reached out to MK because she made it a point to keep in contact with us even after all that time. She is very genuine and had our best interest at heart the entire time. She was always available to answer our questions and made us a priority. MK cares about her clients and it shows. We appreciate MK so much and consider her a good friend to the family. Compass should be proud to have someone like MK representing your firm. She's definitely invited over for the first BBQ at the new house!"
- Chris and Betty S.
★★★★★
"We can't say enough great things about Marcia! My husband and I are moving from St. Paul, Minnesota to Austin and thanks to Marcia we are looking forward to moving into our new home. From day 1 Marcia exceeded our expectations. She was sincere in her commitment to finding us a home. She was honest in letting us know what was feasible based on the housing market. Her professionalism was outstanding, and yet she was so personable that she made us feel like family. She encouraged us when the closing process seemed daunting and cheered us on after we finally got the keys to our home! Marcia is an all around great realtor!!! I will sing her praises to anyone interested in buying/selling their home."
- Chinwe and Nnamdi E.
★★★★★
"In the process of buying a new house, the realtor shares the most important part of it. You will definitely end up with your dream home if your realtor is excellent and having great knowledge in their field, That's what happened to us when Marcia was with her in our house buying process. She is up to date and having vast knowledge. The best part was that she used to update us on everything related to our house even after signing papers. We are extremely happy with her work and highly recommend her. All the best to Marcia!"
- Tarun R.
★★★★★
"Thank you, Compass, for understanding our home buying needs and wants! Marcia Kim helped us to get what we wanted and knew where our limits were, in regards to buying our next home! Marcia is so fast! Very personal and takes our time together seriously; wasted no time showing us homes that did not meet our criteria. She is a dedicated Realtor and I'm so glad we had the delight of working with her! Marcia sold out home before it hit the MLS :)"
- Jordan R.

"Marcia was great! She put up with our \maybe we'll buy a house, maybe we won't\"-ness for years until we stumbled upon the right one! "

"Marcia Kim at Compass did a fantastic job helping me find and purchase my home. She knew the area in Cedar Park very well and found the right house for me very quickly. Marcia also negotiated a good and fair price for the home which saved me money."
- Jarod P.
★★★★★
"I couldn't be happier with my experience with Marcia Kim at Compass. It took us less than a day to find an ideal property, and she was able to get the ball rolling even though it was the weekend. Through every step of the way, Marcia was extremely responsive and kept me in the loop constantly. Overall, I would recommend Marcia and Compass without reservation to friends or acquaintances."
- John B.
★★★★★
"We have had the opportunity to take advantage of Marcia's expertise twice in the last year and a half, both times conducting our search primarily long distance, then seeing a number of places in one or two days. Despite the strain that undoubtedly imposed on her busy schedule, Marcia was unfailingly helpful, patient, and professional. She is clearly attuned to the vagaries of the Austin market, and knows neighborhoods and properties well. When we had questions, she got us thorough answers promptly. Marcia made helpful suggestions without being intrusive or overbearing. We have dealt with realtors who we did not feel really listened to us, but instead simply aggressively marketed their own listings; Marcia is the antithesis of that stereotype, listening closely to the needs we expressed and acutely attending even to our unstated needs. Although we came into this process with a list of properties we found online, Marcia quickly found us something much better, a property we might never have chosen to look at on our own-and the one we fell in love with and ultimately purchased. We are so grateful to Marcia for her sensitivity, professionalism and friendship!"
- Kris and Jeff
★★★★★
"Thank you so much for getting Sarah and me a house in a great location that we could make our own! From our very first phone call to the closing table, you made us feel comfortable while still pushing us in the right direction. Your approach to us being first time house buyers was spot on. We absolutely love the house we chose and have already begun making it our own. I will definitely recommend you and Compass to all my family and friends."
- Ryan W.
★★★★★
"We had the most wonderful experience with Marcia as our realtor. Not only was she my realtor, but is now one of my closest friends. One of the nicest and most honest people I've ever met. She is truly amazing and patient and not in the least bit pushy. Only positive energy coming from this lady. She got our house sold in 3 days for way over asking price. First class service all the way! Call her today if you want to get your house sold."
- Van Vo
★★★★★
"Once again, Marcia proved to be an exceptional realtor for us. She provided great service while we put our previous home on the market and we feel she contributed to its quick sale. As soon as we were ready to sell it, Marcia visited the house and provided suggestions that could help prepare it for the market. As a result of her recommendations, we were able to locate a wonderful staging company, reliable landscaping services and a window cleaning company that collaboratively prepared the house to be presented to potential buyers. After one day on the market, we received an offer for the house and within a couple of days we had two offers above asking price. Marcia did a great job of reviewing the proposals with us and we were able to find the best new owner for a wonderful home. During the closing process, Marcia kept us up to date on what was going on and helped make the entire experience go very smoothly. Marcia is an amazing realtor and is part of a talented real estate agency. We will be definitely recommending Marcia and your agency to our friends."
- Jose and Linda G.
★★★★★
"We moved to Austin from Kansas City 3 years ago and linked up with Marcia Kim at that time. Our experience was outstanding and she was so helpful as we were working long distance on setting up visits to view properties. We eventually decided to build by Lake Travis. Now, we were looking to set up a new business and needed commercial property so we once again called Marcia who with the commercial arm of the agency was able to locate a vacate lot in Leander that totally meets our needs. We give her the highest recommendation possible not only for her skill set but for her outstanding personality creating a pleasurable experience during stressful times."
- Tyler F.
★★★★★
"We had a wonderful experience with Marcia as our realtor. As we initiated the search for our new home, she was there from the beginning as an informative, attentive and reliable agent. When our initial inquiry to a home didn't pan out, she reassured us that there would be other possibilities to look at and shared the Compass website and app, which were great portals into searching for listed homes. After we located a few online that we wanted to look at, she accompanied us to view them and also aggregated a choice she thought we might be interested in as well. As we viewed each home, Marcia did an exceptional job of offering insight into each of the home's details and it was quite evident that her extensive experience attributes to her ability to exceed her clients' expectations. As a result of our day with her, we were able to find our dream home. Marcia then did an amazing job negotiating on our behalf and we were grateful for everything she did to help us finalize the purchase. We look forward to working with her again as we prepare to list our previous home on the market and we are confident that she will be an exceptional listing agent."
- Jose and Linda G.
★★★★★
"Marcia is amazing! Our experience working with her far exceeded our expectations for selling our old home and buying our new one. First of all, during our sales process Marcia was able to get us two offers for our house even before it officially went on the market. She worked diligently to see us through a great closing process on the sale of our home and for full asking price as well. She played the role of adviser and therapist in addition to agent as we were first time sellers. During our buying process Marcia was still able to be extremely helpful throughout and instrumental during the closing process, even though she was supporting us long distance. She ended up saving us $1500 during closing by catching a critical error in the closing documents. I am glad to say that Marcia and Compass did an amazing job for us and I can't wait for the chance to refer them to my friends and family."
- Kirtus and Meghan D.
★★★★★
"What a true pleasure it was working with Marcia! We first connected about 5 years ago, and last year she helped us put an offer on a house that after inspections, needed much thought, we chose not to close on. We found our true piece of heaven this spring and Marcia was amazing from start to finish! Could not have asked for a better realtor! I will always recommend her and Compass to all friends searching the hill country for their dream home! Marcia is an amazing person and great professional!"
- Angie B.
★★★★★
"I had an excellent experience with Marcia. I was a first time buyer and Marcia patiently walked me through all of the steps I needed to buy my first home. She found me exactly what I wanted within my budget and was even able to get me in to look at the condo first before it was even publicly listed. Marcia was not only professional she was also fun to work with. I felt like I had a friend helping me out. I would absolutely work with her again and recommend her to people I know."
- Jackie A.
★★★★★
"Marcia Kim was always accessible and responsive, and returned phone calls, texts and emails almost immediately. She was also extremely patient with our many undoubtedly stupid questions and very helpful in following up with other listing agents or sellers to obtain additional information on the three houses on which we actually made offers. We were particularly grateful that Marcia took the time and trouble to visit the house that we eventually purchased, taking pictures of the interior and exterior, lot, view, road, and especially, any items she saw as potentially problematic. Because we were purchasing long distance and sight unseen, as we live in Savannah, her assistance on that last was absolutely essential. We would obviously recommend her services highly!"
- Kris R.
★★★★★
"Marcia is absolutely amazing. We moved clear across the country without knowing anyone and on short notice she got us in to show us 11 homes one day and 5 the next day before we continued on with our vacation. Marcia and Nicole both took care of us like family. Everything moved so quickly and within 2 days we had an offer in on a home and contract signed. We were overjoyed, as the closing process continued Marcia worked with us to take care of relocation issues, recommending painters, carpet, cleaning companies, and anything else we may need. Marcia was available for the pickup of our vehicles when they were delivered. Our relocation process was made so easy by the efforts of Marcia as well as Nicole we are so thankful that we had a good experience. We were so worried we wouldn't be able to find someone we trusted and Marcia proved to be all we needed to make everything happen."
- Glenn K.
★★★★★
"My experience with Marcia was really awesome. She has such a great personality and really understands her customer's needs. I kind of wish I hadn't found a house so soon so I could have worked with her longer but it came at just the right time, in the final minute so to speak. Since I had already put in my 60 day move out notice at my apartment complex I was under the gun to find a house as soon as I could before time ran out. Marcia said she would help me every step of the way and she certainly did. Once she helped me find the right house she was able to negotiate a very sweet deal with the builders sales agent that I was very happy with. I don't think anyone else could have got me the deal she did and I sincerely can't thank her enough for that. She went above and beyond my expectations of what kind of service I thought I would get from a real estate agent and I am very very happy with the results. I have already recommended Marcia to some of my friends who may be in the market to buy a home at some point in the near future. I hope they reach out to her for their home buying needs if and when they do decide to buy, and if I hear of anyone who is searching for a home I will definitely continue to recommend her."
- Kenneth N.
★★★★★
"I moved to the US from the UK and had met a few real estate agents before meeting Marcia Kim. Marcia without a doubt showed me the difference between average or normal and amazing. Marcia took the time to understand our family needs in terms of matching a property to us and not to mention even managed to find the home we purchased as one that wasn't even on the market at that time! In addition Marcia supported us in understanding the local area as well as the dos and don'ts in addition to the school districts. I could go on for pages here but honestly I don't recommend lightly but on this occasion there is really no other choice you should be making other than CALL Marcia for your real estate needs."
- Peter T.

"We are delighted to say that Marcia did exceed our expectations! We were eager buyers, and frequently asked Marcia to show us properties that were zero-day on the market, evenings or weekends, and she never said no. It is impressive because it was not in one month, but for a lengthy seven months! We finally found our dream house, and Marcia did some hard negotiations for us. Thanks, Marcia!"

"What can I say about Marcia Kim? Well, she is without a doubt the best real estate agent I have ever worked with. Marcia is a perfect blend of professional expertise and personal warmth and kindness. That combination makes for an outstanding agent that not only knows the market and can facilitate a sale, but makes the experience as painless as possible for the seller or buyer that she is representing. Clients soon realize they have been fortunate in finding such a treasure, and Compass is lucky to have her on their team.

"I have hired Marcia Kim to sell my condo in Austin and she did an excellent job in marketing the property. She knew exactly what to do so it would sell fast and at a great price. Thanks to her outstanding knowledge of the real estate market and all the extra effort she put in into preparing and marketing my condo, we were under contract within two days after listing. Although I was not on location, Marcia handled everything on my behalf, kept me informed and was always on top of necessary paperwork through all stages of the selling process. I could not have had a better realtor than Marcia. She is a true real estate professional who goes the extra mile to exceed her client's needs. I highly recommend her to anyone who needs to buy or sell their property in Austin area."

"Marcia was VERY helpful in assisting me to get my house staged and ready to sell. She has a great attitude / personality and really loves what she does for a living, which is the main reason we chose her as our realtor. My fiance and I dropped our other realtor and also chose Marcia to assist us with the purchase of a new house. Marcia was very timely in her communication, and she was instrumental in getting both houses to close within a few days of each other."

"If you want to sell a home in Austin, go with Marcia Kim. Marcia is a terrific agent, my wife and I couldn't have been happier with the service, professionalism, and friendliness we received. Within hours of contacting her, Marcia was ready to meet us with market info and get us on the right track to listing and selling our home. We instantly felt confident that we had the right agent. Our house was listed on a Thursday and we had an offer the following Wednesday. That is a testament to the effort and dedication Marcia gives her clients. She is the best!"

"Peter and I can't say enough about Marcia. She is very professional, we always felt we were in good hands. We met Marcia a couple of times last year as we thought our home would sell then. She picked us up at our hotel, always happy and ready to go. She has the patience of a Saint, we must have run her ragged. We feel that we have not only found a realestate agent to do further business with, as my husband expects to be buying lots through her and building homes so she can sell them, but we have found a good friend."

"Marcia did a great job. The property was a tough sell. Buyers 'nickled and dimed'. We had a very short closing window (less than 3 wks after option expired) with much to do. Marcia did everything possible to enable this sale to happen. She is very professional and was willing to find the resources needed to close the sale. She is one of the best agents I have come across."

"Last year I started to shop for a home and unfortunately me and my wife had to put our home purchase on hold because of some complications with our new born daughter. We informed Marcia about are situation of holding off on a house, so I expected never to hear from Marcia until we were ready to buy again. But to our surprise and appreciation, Marcia continued to keep us informed about the market and still sent us houses to look at even though she knew we would not be buying until 09. Because of her willingness to work for us, knowing we were a year out, shows that she has more than a paycheck driving her purpose as a real estate agent. Any brokerage is privileged to have such a great caring person in there company. I will recommend Marcia Kim to everyone and anyone that is looking at buying a home..."

"It was a pleasure to work with Marcia Kim to purchase my new home. Marcia was very attentive to my needs and provided guidance at every step of the process. The service and personal attention I received exceeded my expectations. She was available when I needed her and always returned my calls/emails promptly. She was able to recommend highly competent home inspector at a reasonable rate, which gave me the piece of mind I needed to purchase my home. But most importantly she was able to negotiate with the seller to get the price that I wanted to pay for the home. The entire process went smoothly with no surprises. I will definitely use Marcia Kim for my future realty needs."

"When my fiance and I started looking for houses, we had no idea what to do being first time home buyers. Luckily, we created an account with Compass to look at their listings and got Marcia Kim as our Realtor. She called us the next day and we had a great conversation and she gave us some additional information to help us better understand the process. We actually saw the house we wanted on our first showing! Everything else went very smoothly, we were in constant contact with each other (phone, text, email) and even closed earlier than expect. From start to finish, the whole process took about 1.5 months. Even now, she still checks up on us to make sure we are ok. Marcia Kim is a wonderful Realtor and I'm happy to have her has a friend."

"Working with Marcia was a wonderful experience! She stays on top of everything, and she is quick to respond to emails, texts, and phone calls. She never pushed me into an area or price range in which I was not comfortable. During the purchase of my home, she was an exceptional negotiator. Marcia knows how to get down to business, but makes it fun. Her personality is great...you will definitely want to stay in touch with her after the sale and just hang out with her. I would recommend her to anyone because she is great with her business and I believe she could work with any type of personality. Just one meeting with her will put you at ease about the whole process!"

"The first time I ever talked to Marcia Kim at Compass on the phone, she talked to me the way someone who has known you forever would talk to you. That's awesome! We just closed yesterday on our first home, YAY, thanks to Marcia. I am a very BIG worry wart and she picked up on that immediately! She kept me calm and us informed throughout the whole process. If it wasn't for Marcia knowing how to keep me calm and collective through the whole thing I might be white headed at 33!! She cares about her clients and whats in the best interest for them. Marcia is awesome and really does work for \you\". Without any question, we would definitely recommend Marcia to anyone! Marcia you ROCK, thanks \"mama\"! :-) "

"Marcia is fantastic! Her knowledge, demeanor, responsiveness and vigor make her naturally suited for this profession. As out of state buyers, she helped make our buying experience a pleasure. Were it not for her personality, patience, poise, and prolific referral network, we might not have accomplished our very aggressive goal of finding and closing on our home in such an extremely short time frame. And she did it all as an expectant mother! It's only that she is not licensed in the state we're moving from that prevents us from having her sell this home. Although improbable, Marcia Kim should be everyone's real estate agent."

"Marcia helped me discover where I needed to BE. I started in Sun City, it was in a Sun City Angelina plan home that she and I first met, and it was an Angelina plan that I ended up buying some 8 months later. But, in the meantime, Marcia showed me every house I found on the internet in my price range, both in Austin and Georgetown. She prepared two contingent sales contracts on two separate properties, one in Oldtown Georgetown and one in Serenada, which took time and effort. Even though these did not work out, the process was very helpful...because it made me more certain of my final decision to buy in Sun City Georgetown. And, it also helped me be rational about the price of home I could afford. Her presentation of my lakehouse was very professional as well. She had some wonderful pictures taken of the interior and exterior that really showed the property off well. She also helped me add some finishing touches to the staging of my house that presented it better in the photos. It was also very encouraging to be able to read the email feedback after realtors showed the property."

"It was a pleasure to work with Marcia Kim on the purchase of our new home. She is very personable, responsive and accommodating. We were unfamiliar with the Austin Market and Marcia provided good insight into market areas and conditions. She worked tirelessly to find the perfect home to meet our requirements. Marcia's use of technology proved to be a very beneficial tool as we were seldom in the Austin area. We would always look to Marcia for any future real estate needs and would highly recommend her and provide a reference upon request. We felt fortunate to find such a good ally in our home search. Marcia's approach to real estate representation makes her feel like part of the family and we will definitely stay in touch with her."

From the first time I met her there was no doubt that she would be our agent for both buying and selling. It was like working with a friend. There was a personal touch in her work, but yet she remained very professional. Marcia delivered all the paperwork needed in a timely manner, was prompt for all appointments, and always had a humorous touch even when things were getting a little delayed. I would certainly recommend her to my friends in Austin. Thank you for everything, Marcia."

Now she is assisting us with the building of our home after we signed the contract for our lot.

"As a first-time homebuyer, and moving from another state, our first home purchase could have been a stressful and intimidating experience. Because we found Marcia Kim at Compass, it was the opposite. I cannot say enough good things about my experience, but I will try and explain some of the reasons it was so great for us. We first began communication with Compass before we moved to Austin from Los Angeles. I knew that buying a home would be a very personal and potentially stressful situation, so I wanted to make sure we found an agent that truly understood us and could help match-make us with our dream home. I submitted a contact form on Compass' website with some information about who we are and what we were looking for. We were connected with Marcia as a possible realtor, and hit it off immediately. Before we even made our first house-hunting visit, Marcia was amazing with prompt and efficient communication, teaching us about what to realistically expect in the house hunting process, and guiding us in the right direction to find what we wanted. When we made our first visit, even though it would be months before we would be in a position to buy, Marcia took us to see our favorite properties from the searches she set up for us. We could tell immediately by the way she \got\" who we are and what we wanted, and the way she dealt with the other realtors, that we could trust her and that she would have our back. When we were ready to move, Marcia kicked it into high gear for us, doing everything in her power to get us into the house we wanted as soon as possible, so we would not have to live out of a hotel for long. She even took the stress out of the process for us by negotiating the best possible scenarios for us and our current situation with ease. She was a true advocate for us, and would proactively seek out the best scenarios for us (which was great, since it was all new to us!). One of the best things I can say is that Marcia made us feel like her only clients, even though I know for a fact that she had other clients with budgets 5x that of ours at the same time. Yet she always made us feel important, always responded promptly, and always fought for us like it was for herself. She truly recognized how significant of a purchase and moment in our lives this was, and made it as easy and painless as possible. If we ever decide to leave our house, we will use Marcia again in a heartbeat, and whole-heartedly recommend her for first time homebuyers or experienced buyers alike"

"Marcia Kim helped me find my ideal condo. I must say she made my experience very pleasant. As a first time buyer I basically had no idea how to even start my search, but thanks to Marcia I found my ideal place within days, won the betting war against the other buyers, got my mortgage approved, and the list just goes on and on. Now it wasn't all just business, my experience was actually fun! I'm looking forward to more deals in the future. I was referred to Marcia and would absolutely refer her to others."
