Calabasas Properties To Consider

No properties found

According to the National Association of Realtors®, the average buyer spend six weeks searching homes online before contacting an agent. If your media marketing doesn’t “wow” them, a buyer may never notice your home. Research also shows that listings with video or virtual tours engage buyers much longer and this increases your property’s impact. Listings with a virtual tour get 87% more views and 75% of buyers say virtual tours are a major factor in their decisions. Marion’s listings always stand out.

You already know I’m a Realtor® so here is a bit more about me.

I grew up in the Chicago area, attended Northwestern in blustery Evanston, Illinois, and worked my way up to become a DGA Assistant Director in film and television. Eventually, I left Chicago’s cold winters behind to join Kevin in LA. Two children later, I followed sister Valerie joining up with Berkshire Hathaway HomeServices.

As a realtor, I love helping you understand the comps, walk you through the many documents, guide you in preparing your home, provide you with the best media marketing ever, and answer any questions along the way.

I’m an avid reader and with BBC producer Andrew Chater, we initiated a new academic program in the English and History Departments at USC. This course is in its 8th year, and I continue my support in an advisory role. I also have served on an MPTF (Motion Picture Television Fund) Steering Committee.

My background in the film and television worlds has equipped me to provide my real estate clients with the highest level of cutting-edge media, critical to marketing homes today. I’m also fluent in French and cannot resist a crusty baguette and cup of espresso.

I can't say enough about the dedication, warmth and personal attention that Marion gave to my daughter in buying her first house. She listened to her needs always, and was an amazing advocate. I highly recommend Marion for your real estate needs.

If only my few words could do justice for how incredible my buying experience was.... I cannot say enough good things about my realtor, Marion Dole, and her sister and partner, Valerie. Marion carefully listened and ask intuitive questions to find out in advance of searching, what I was looking for. She understood my budget and didn't try to push me outside of my comfort zone.

We had only seen one house prior to finding the one that I would end up calling home, but looking at both houses was a delightful experience. She give real insight and feedback about the first that we had seen, and then understood my desire for making the second one work.

Gathering a stellar team of inspectors, Marion helped me investigate all aspects of this unique house. With warmth and kindness and patience, she helped work through the challenges of negotiating and ultimately we were able to close in just 30 days!

There wasn't a single moment that she pressured or pushed me into a decision and it was only care and support that I felt throughout what could be a very challenging and stressful process.

There is an incredible partnership that I was lucky to witness between Marion and Val, and watch how they work together to do the best they can and the right thing for their clients.

It was an absolute pleasure to work with them and I will recommend them to all my friends and family in the future.

I know I've said it a million times, but thank you again, Marion and Val!

I am the BHHS California Properties Regional Marketing Manager. I've been working with Marion for 5+ years and can attest to both her technological prowess as well as her genuine character. For every listing, Marion now maximizes virtual technology and professional drone videography, often more than other agents. I consistently see her trying new methods and channels of digital marketing to spread awareness for both her and her listings, including Streaming TV commercials. I highly recommend considering Marion to handle your real estate transactions!

I have been through several moves over the past 6 years, and dealt with several different realtors... Marion Dole was by fair the very best realtor I have ever worked with! Not only does she make the process fun, she gets the job done and will fight and go secure the property of your dreams. She is a go getter and I have referred my friends to her. You are in fabulous hands with Marion!

It has been an absolute pleasure to work with Marion. She is dedicated, warm, and approachable, but what truly sets her apart is her understanding of technology as it relates to the real estate market. Marion went above and beyond by personally conducting many open houses for our home in Agoura Hills, always bringing grace and professionalism to every interaction. After we tragically lost our home in the Woolsey Fire, Marion was there for us, providing unwavering support during a very difficult time. With so many agents out there, we can confidently recommend Marion and her team without reservation.

Marion found my son and his partner the most amazing duplex in Silver Lake and swooped in with an offer before the other realtor could finish her morning coffee. They never would have gotten that little jewel without Marion. She's connected and hears all, and she remembers. She notices what you notice and adds in her fresh perspective, yet always respectful - never pushy, yet firm.

Her recommended inspectors, on impossibly short timelines, saved us from houses with no foundations (!!!) or had other complexities involved. And those were homes we had offers on. She protects her clients at all costs.

I've been an executive in service & hospitality for over 45 years and I'm critical. Marion is as service-minded, knowledgeable and patient as anyone can be. The right combo for such a high-stakes, emotional purchase like one's home.

You rock, Marion!

Marion and I have had the pleasure of working together at BHHS. Not only is she a great agent to work with but she excels on the tech side of real estate. She knows how to maximize listing exposure online, and she goes above and beyond for her clients. Her buyers love her too!

Marion got us into escrow on the first house we put an offer on! She crosses her T's and dots her I's - we had confidence all throughout the process that the administrative work would be processed correctly, and sellers' realtors really appreciate that too. She met us at countless open houses and opened doors for us across LA. Really grateful for Marion and her amazing team!

We had an amazing experience working with Marion. She was a true pleasure to work with and extremely knowledgeable. Thanks to her tenacity, hard work, and thoughtful approach, we were able to purchase exactly what we were looking for. I highly recommend Marion as a realtor.

Marion is the best! Very dedicated to her clients and very interested in finding them the perfect fit for their needs. Bright, inquisitive, hardworking, and no doubt someone that will do an excellent job for you.

Marion helped my partner and I buy our first house and did so with endless care and optimism. She was there with us for countless showings, took the time to walk through each house’s pros and cons and, in the end, when we found the house we knew we couldn’t live without, she helped us expertly negotiate for it off-market. Marion is thoughtful and meticulous, and always had our best interests at heart. She’s a professional who cares about her clients and will go the extra mile over and over again. Can’t recommend her enough.

Tech Talk - Your Media Marketing Matters

Tech_1_25251 Panteras_HD

Professional photography is captured in “raw” format with HDR bracketing. Both of these techniques ensure the finest photographs. Most professionals follow these protocols, though artistic skill will vary.

Tech_2_25504 Hamilton+_HD

Twilight photography benefits homes with features like landscape lighting, illuminated pools, patios and outdoor dining. Marion’s team delivers true twilight photos, not Photoshop simulations.

Tech_3_Drone Photography_HD

Drone photography captures dramatic wide property views. It also helps to see past trees that can block the best angle. Marion’s team always arrives with a drone. It’s now basic to photography, like having a really tall tripod.

Tech_4_Alsace FPV_HD

FPV Fly-Through video is a dramatic way to feature your home. A tiny drone orbits your home, enters the door, glides through every major room, the yard, pool, guest house. This sweeping view is fun and exciting.

Tech_5_Alsace MPb

Matterport 3D Walkthrough tours have revolutionized home buying. Buyers want these, but most agents don’t provide them. Marion delivers this essential interactive experience so buyers can explore your home immediately.

Tech_6_Zillow 3D Home_HD

Zillow 3D Home virtual tours get promoted on Zillow. They’re not as attractive as Matterport, but Zillow gives your listing a little boost, so Marion’s listings get this alternate treatment as well. Marion provides every benefit.

Tech_7_3DVista

3DVista is the Porsche of virtual tours. It’s the most powerful system to showcase large properties. Marion’s Virtual Team is the best in California and also the official training and certification team for the western United States.
