Susan Kingsley transitioned from a fulfilling career in education back into real estate in 2002, where she previously worked in mortgage lending and property management. As a teacher she was known, respected and trusted and that reputation continues with her clients and throughout the Real Estate community. The standards that she holds for herself are higher than others expect. It is very rewarding to build solid relationships with each of her clients as she demonstrates over and over how dedicated she is to their needs. This is a very personal business, just as teaching had been. Being a Realtor has also allowed her to continue to share information and to stay connected to the neighborhoods and families she has come to know and love.
Susan Kingsley was by far the most professional realtor we interviewed, but also the most approachable and sincere. I am convinced that selecting her to represent us in the sale of our home is why we achieved the best possible outcome. She had all the resources and connections of a large agency at her disposal, but we never got lost in the corporate shuffle. We always felt valued and respected thanks to her personal attention. Throughout the process Susan and her team were thorough and clear, taking the time to make sure we understood exactly what needed to be done. Susan was patient and calming, and listened carefully to our needs and concerns. I was doubly impressed with her responsiveness because I was well aware the home we were selling was not the highest value property among her listings, but she always treated us like we were the most important client she had. We decided to put ourselves in Susan's experienced hands and did everything we could to follow her advice. In the end, our appraisal and sales price were higher than we had hoped, thanks to Susan's fantastic efforts. She successfully navigated some unexpected speed-bumps on the buyer's side late in escrow, and her skilled management of the situation is what made the deal work in the end. You should do your homework and meet realtors in person to find the right fit for you, but Susan should be at the top of your list.

I can't say enough great things about Susan Kingsley! As my realtor when I sold my Walnut Creek home, she made every step as pain-free as possible. Her sage advice on staging and her knowledge of trustworthy contractors for other essential fix-ups saved me headaches and money. And when the first offer fell through just before closing, she was immediately able to circle back to the agent of a previously interested party so that another offer came in quickly. Her demeanor was friendly, her advice straightforward, and her ethics impeccable. I would not hesitate to recommend Susan Kingsley to anyone selling or buying, especially in the Northgate area as I found her knowledge of the market to be truly outstanding.

I highly recommend Susan Kingsley at Alain Pinel to anyone in the Rossmoor/Walnut Creek area. We moved from one Rossmoor condo to another, and then moved from Rossmoor. She served as our agent in both sales, and each time, she was terrific!: Professional, organized, pleasant, easy to work with, easy to reach. In each sale, the condo needed some work, and she managed it all. Both times, we were tremendously busy with work, etc., but had "no worries" as Susan always had it under control. Exceptionally competent! I wouldn't hesitate to engage her services again.
Description of Work: Served as our agent in the sale of two Rossmoor condominiums.
