About Marla
Marla's expertise of the Dallas metroplex and vast involvement within the community has been the foundation of her real estate success. Her real estate career has taken off and shows no signs of slowing down. For over 20 years Marla has been focused on helping her clients make wise and educated investment decisions, starting her career in investment advisory services and transitioning to real estate in 2016.
Having lived in the Dallas-area since childhood, Marla understands the Dallas residential real estate market well, enabling her to represent clients in various locations throughout the Metroplex. For the past 18 years, she and her family have lived in the Park Cities, where she and her husband Cary raised their four boys. With a strong passion for houses and decorating, Marla found applying her skills and knowledge to the Dallas real estate market to be a natural fit. With her even temperament and positive outlook, Marla represents each transaction with the same level of commitment, dedication, and determination that she applies to all areas of her life. Her accessibility, constant communication and determination to go above and beyond in achieving her client's goals are what sets her apart.
Marla has been actively involved in the Highland Park School District in various roles over the past 14 years. She was a school board candidate in 2016 and currently serves as a member of the Parent Sounding Board for Diversity and Inclusivity and the Park Cities Hope Board for student mental health. She has also served on the Young Men's Service League with each of her boys and in two organizations that became near and dear to her after suffering Sudden Cardiac Arrest in 2011 - the American Heart Association and LIving for Zachary. Marla graduated from the University of Texas at Austin with a Bachelor's Degree in Marketing. She also attended the Kellogg School at Northwestern University in Chicago. In her free time Marla is an avid runner and competitive tennis player. She also enjoys reading, spending time with friends and family and is crazy about her two dogs: Gracie and Ellie!
Client Testimonials

“I cannot say enough good things about Marla. Not being from Dallas, Marla really helped us in choosing the right neighborhood for us. She was always willing to give her honest opinion but was also very good at looking at houses through our lens in terms of our wants and needs. She was always available for quick showings in person and via FaceTime when we weren’t in town. When we did find a house that we liked, she was very knowledgeable about the local area and was able to guide us through the different offer terms that might set us apart and make our offer compelling. We looked at a lot of houses and she was always patient through the process and took the time to help us find the right home. She genuinely wanted to find us the perfect home. And even after we had closed, she continued to help by providing different contacts for various services (moving, maintenance and repairs, and renovation work) and brainstormed design ideas with us to make the home our own. She has been there every step of the way with a smile, and we couldn’t be more thankful we found her! “ - Elise and Austin

“In the end what makes a successful agent is finding someone who cares about your well-being. What we found with Marla is an awesome real estate agent, but more importantly we gained a friend who ultimately sacrificed her time and efforts because she wanted our family to find the perfect house - and we did."“
★★★★★
“Marla is a rockstar! She helped me and my wife find out first home and we couldn't have picked a better real estate agent to help us along the way. She was always very accessible and she really took the time to understand our wants and needs. If you are looking for a first class experience then look no further - Marla exceeded all of our expectations and I bet she will certainly exceed yours.“ - Jeff S.

★★★★★
“Marla was excellent to work with throughout my entire process. As a first time home buyer, Marla was extremely accessible and helpful. During the viewings she was attentive to detail and made sure to point out different things to look out for that may be problems and/or cause problems in the future. After putting in an offer, Marla continued to be hands on and helped me through the entire contract process step by step. She was never more than a phone call or text away and I would highly recommend her for anyone looking to purchase or sell a home.“ - Tony L.
★★★★★
“I highly recommend Marla Sewall as a residential real estate agent. She represented me as a seller of a home in north Dallas. After interviewing real estate agents, I selected Marla, who won my confidence with superior knowledge of the market and an even more superior personality. Any real estate transaction can have tense moments, but Marla makes the tension disappear. She's on top of every glitch and is devoted to the best outcome for her client. You can't go wrong by selecting Marla to represent you.“ - Wendy B.
