“Strong desire to sell the home for top dollar….”


“We are writing this letter to express our deepest gratitude to Prudential Realtor Marlene Dietrich. In addition, we would like to extend our heartfelt thanks to her entire team, especially her husband, Tony, and her son, Mike. Durr and I were fortunate to be able to use Marlene’s services as part of our corporate RELOCATION package to Houston. As I have been a life-long resident of Orange County, and we had raised our two daughters in the home Marlene was to sell, this was an especially emotional time.

There are no words to convey Marlene’s sensitive approach, yet her strong desire to sell the home for top dollar. We had a long list of dos and donts based on our family activities and two large, unruly dogs! Marlene managed to accommodate everything with a gracious attitude. Nothing was too much to ask of her team and they were supportive through all of our requests. We were also impressed by her long list of service providers – all of whom we would use again in the future as they were excellent. The sale was handled beautifully, every “bump in the road” covered by Marlene in minutes. She was absolutely calm through the process, making Durr and I always so grateful that she was our realtor! At the conclusion of the relocation sale, we decided to purchase a smaller house here in Orange County to keep as our “summer home.” Needless to say, we went right to Marlene! Marlene, Tony and Mike showed us both new and used homes, answered all of our questions, and never tired of house-hunting. This letter could certainly go on for pages, as Marlene and her team deserve at least that much praise. Everyone we came in contact with had the utmost respect for Marlene, and her excellent reputation extends throughout the county. We now consider Marlene to be a genuine, trusted friend, and our realtor for life.”

–Durr, Dana and Family


“Marlene and her team are very experienced and knowledgeable….”


“Marlene sold my condo in Laguna Niguel. I needed to do a 1031 exchange. Marlene and her team are very experienced and knowledgeable regarding 1031 exchanges and helped make the transaction flawless! Marlene marketed and showed my property constantly until it was sold. She made sure that escrow closed on time and that every detail was in order. I spoke with Marlene last week regarding purchasing another property & I am looking forward to her handling my next transaction!”

“Marlene was exceptionally knowledgeable….”


“Our family has had the pleasure of working with Marlene Dietrich and her real estate team on two separate occasions. The first time she represented us on a purchase of a home in Mission Viejo as we relocated from the east coast. Marlene was exceptionally knowledgeable regarding the various local communities, she knew all the tax rates as well as the various information any new buyer to an area would possible want to know. She was able to negotiate the best price with the seller despite being up against multiple offers. Years later, our family decided to upgrade, it had become a buyers market now and we knew it would present many challenges to sell our home for top dollar, yet negotiate a good price for our new home locally. Marlene found us a home we loved in Coto De Caza that was on a short sale, the banks agent had multiple offers. The selling agent had experience working with Marlene successfully in the past; this played a key role in getting our family selected as the buyer! Short sales potentially present many hurdles and could linger for months and months, with Marlene as my agent her level of professionalism was simply outstanding; she got the process done in less than 45 days! I truly could not possibly recommend anyone more highly than Marlene and her team to anyone that is looking to do a real estate transaction in Orange County!”

“Marlene and her Team represented our family on more than one occasion when selling and purchasing a home in Orange County. She is extremely professional and very knowledgeable in her field and has many years of expertise and success to prove it! Marlene excelled for us when we purchased our home on a short-sale. In fact, the bank’s agent selected our family over a competing family in part because of his respect for Marlene in previous real estate workings! Our family is very grateful she was our agent and helped us purchase our home! I have recommended Marlene many times since to others.”

“I do appreciate your professionalism….”


Marlene was great she was so, so helpful with the short sale on my home and even managed to negotiate a few thousand dollars for me at closing.

It was a very difficult dealing with Bank of America but she did an outstanding job. I would and do recommend her often.

–Jacquie Shrader


“Tony was the consummate professional….”


“My wife and I met Tony in Quail Hill while looking for a home. Although the home that Tony was holding the open house for did not quite meet our needs, he was very quick to start showing us other properties in the area. Most realtors are done after an open house, as they have spent the entirety of their day showing a property and want to get home. Not Tony. He closed up the open house and then spent another 2 hours driving us around showing us various properties and getting a feel for what we were looking for. Tony was the consummate professional, always punctual and ready. If there was a question we asked to which he did not know the answer, he always said, “Let me get back to you on that.” Within several ours he was contacting us with an answer. During our home purchase, we met lots of agents, but only one, we can truly call a friend. The professionalism, and yes, tenacity, which Tony showed speaks volumes about how he conducts himself and his business and we would recommend him to anyone looking for a home.”

–Boris and Rebecca


“She went the extra mile for me and exceeded my expectations….”


“I was referred to Marlene Dietrich’s Home Team and it was one of the best decisions I ever made. Not only did she almost immediately rent my apartment to an excellent tenant until I was in a position to sell my condo, but she sold my condo within one month and got a higher price for it that I thought possible. It was my first time selling a piece of real estate and she walked me through each step and explained everything to me and guided me through the entire process. She answered all my questions (no matter how much time it took her) and was there whenever I needed her. She always called me back promptly, was always there for me, went the extra mile for me and exceeded my expectations.”

–Merrill L. Lewis


“Marlene is extremely knowledgeable….”


“I am writing this testimonial with so much appreciation from my heart and soul to Marlene and her Team. Marlene especially took so much time with me and checked in with me all the time to make sure I was so ok. Marlene is extremely knowledgeable, caring and most important to me, encouraging. This was the hardest thing for me to do to have to sell my condo after almost 15 years of being a homeowner. I told Marlene, “I can’t do this, it’ my sanctuary for all these years.” I was pretty much in denial and needed to face reality. There were al lot of other things going on in my life and Marlene always lifted me up and said you will look back on this and it will be ok. So not only was she a very professional, beautiful woman inside and out, she was a friend to me through my entire transaction and made it so much easier. Marlene truly cares about each and every buyer and seller. She is very much a people person and so personable. I cannot say enough about Marlene, she is the best if I am in a position again to buy in the future, she would without question be my Real Estate Gal. I would also refer her to anyone I knew who was trying to sell or buy.”

–Andra McCullin

–Helene Goldnadel


“Excels at understanding the needs and requirements of her clients….”


“I have known Marlene for over 13 years and have bought and sold 6 properties with her over that time. She s thoroughly professional and a delight to work with. She excels at understanding the needs and requirements of her clients, is very responsive, is a tough negotiator and, most importantly, always acts in the best interest of her client. She takes the time to really understand what you are looking for and finds the right solution. I would recommend Marlene for any real estate need you have.”

–Walter Allan
