Beth Gassel
After living in both San Francisco and Marin County for the last 25-years, helping people find their place on either side of the Golden Gate is my specialty and passion. With more than 15-years of marketing and operations experience at my previous employers: Chiat / Day Advertising and Gap Inc, I'm uniquely positioned to help my clients prepare a best-in-class marketing strategy, a winning offer, or a seamless roadmap to buy or sell their next home. Tactful negotiation, excellent communication and creative problem-solving are a few of the strengths I bring to the table. For sellers and buyers alike, I have a reliable team of resources who can help customize or prepare your home for sale. As a Tiburon resident and mother of 3 kids, I have first-hand insight into public and independent schools; varied recreation opportunities that make Marin County so special; while still love keeping a pulse on the latest happenings in San Francisco. In my free time, I love hiking and running the amazing trails in Marin; volunteering with my daughters in National Charity League; and skiing with my family in Lake Tahoe and beyond. Every day, I feel gratitude and fulfillment doing what I love, in a place that I love, for people that I love. Client Testimonials "Beth & Sean provided their unmatched expertise and support for the sale of our Sausalito home and the purchase of a home in Tiburon. Despite dealing with additional restrictions and requirements imposed by the coronavirus in the spring and summer of 2020, they helped us prepare our home for sale, including locating reliable and cost-effective painters, floor refinishers, and repairmen as well as stagers and movers. They were honest and forthright in recommending repairs and upgrades where necessary and in counseling against them when not advisable. As a result, we were at ease throughout the process because they "held our hand" every step of the way. Our home sold very quickly despite the pandemic. Simultaneously, they identified and assisted us in purchasing the ideal replacement home for our needs. Throughout the process, over the course of several months--before, during and even after the sale and purchase -- they were always available and immediately responsive to questions and concerns and proved to be outstanding problem-solvers whenever an issue arose. They worked with us as a trusted and knowledgeable partner and advisors, not as the stereotypical commission-driven salesperson. We give them a five-plus star endorsement!" ~ Patty & John "We worked with Beth over a 10-month period as we searched carefully for the right home in Marin, after 30 years of living in San Francisco. Beth worked tirelessly to help us understand the various neighborhoods in Marin, and more importantly, helped us define and refine the characteristics we wanted in a Marin home. Beth consulted with us on the innumerable homes we previewed and walked us through the pros and cons of different houses/locations, always keeping in mind our criteria. It never felt like she was pushing a home in order to make a quick sale. She emphasized the virtue of patience, and made sure we would be happy with our final result. Beth also assisted us with the innumerable challenges that comes with simultaneously selling (SF) and buying (Marin) homes, including financing, bridge financing, moving logistics, and general planning. Beth understands the Marin housing market, and has the right professional and personal experience to connect with prospective buyers and sellers, enabling them to realize their real estate goals. I highly recommend Beth for your Marin real estate needs." ~Paul & Jennifer
