Laif was referred to me by the agent who sold my family property in a different area of the state. Laif and the entire Margaretich team are personable, knowledgeable of the area and the real estate market in general, and were patient and helpful with this anxious first-time homebuyer. Without them, I would still be scrambling for a place to live. Thank you!

Laif and Mary are the most fabulous realtors around. They supported us through an incredibly challenging relocation last year and helped us secure a beautiful place on a really tight timeline. A year later, they continue to be a great resource and make sure we are all settling in well. They are also doing a great job helping my parents with a land purchase.

A year later, they continue to be a great resource and make sure we are all settling in well. They are also doing a great job helping my parents with a land purchase. When Laif helped us buy our house, he was responsive, reliable, knowledgeable, kind, honest and hardworking. It was a whirlwind, but he did what it took to pull off a complicated deal. We highly recommend them! Less

Mary Margaretich and her team are fantastic. We have purchased three homes and sold one home with them and couldn't be happier. We will work with them again on our next sale or purchase!

The experience was great and the Kimberly my realtor was real responsive and helpful in helping obtain my property. When I was on vacation she would take the time and go out to check out a property on my behalf and FaceTime so we could could review everything.

I love the Margaretich Team at Sereno Realty! Mary Margaretich has been my go to realtor since 2013. There aren't enough words to describe how amazing this team is.

I have been involved with Mary, Susana and her team for a number of years. They have always been very helpful and kept me informed. I would highly recommend them! Brent MacDonald

We found it pleasant and effective to work with the Margaretich team. The listing data was put together quickly and we loved the video they did. Our house sold quickly. Closing took awhile because the buyer's lender was maddeningly slow, but Mary diligently followed the progress all along the way, motivating and nudging the buyer as needed, and ensured that closing was finally completed.

The group dynamic of this Realestate company was perfect! The quality of film crew was amazing, the video made me want to buy my own place! They told us what they could get for our house and hit the mark perfectly. I would recommend this Realestate company over any other!!

When I decided to move from the Bay Area to Grass Valley, I heard of real estate horror stories: bidding wars, prices skyrocketing and properties selling for way above asking price. I knew I needed a good real estate agency and agent. I was told by a friend who lived in Alta Sierra to use The Margaretich Team, Sereno Real Estate.

When I decided to move from the Bay Area to Grass Valley, I heard of real estate horror stories: bidding wars, prices skyrocketing and properties selling for way above asking price. I knew I needed a good real estate agency and agent. I was told by a friend who lived in Alta Sierra to use The Margaretich Team, Sereno Real Estate. Mary Margaretich arranged for her agent, Jenny Miller, to show me around Grass Valley to the various neighborhoods that were in my price range, and both were wonderfully kind and helpful. Jenny met us at many different properties and was always in touch, while we were looking at the properties and afterwards. Since I lived in the Bay Area, Jenny was happy to check them out for me first and send me all the info before I would come up to check them out. She was so helpful with her excellent knowledge of all the Grass Valley and Nevada City areas. It was a crazy ride, but I was able to buy a beautiful home in our price range and even in the neighborhood that I thought would suit me the best! I most definitely could not have done this without Mary and Jenny. Mary was so helpful to me in understanding the process and she was always available to me, day and night. She really took care of me well during the negotiation, closing, and even after closing. If you’re looking for a great house in the Grass Valley/Nevada City area, I highly recommend using the Margaretich Team - Sereno Real Estate. Ask for Mary. Less

As a buyer I was extremely frustrated with my experience with this seller's agent, who wanted me to bid against myself, and was not willing to discuss or work with me in any way.

We appreciated that the Margaretich Team have all the latest techniques for advertising and selling real estate. It makes a difference.

We couldn't have been happier with our experience as clients of multiple sales with the Margaretich team. Our properties had several unique and challenging elements related to their sales including long drives, large acreage, and unique features that required an appreciation and knowledge of the property to bring out their best selling points.

We couldn't have been happier with our experience as clients of multiple sales with the Margaretich team. Our properties had several unique and challenging elements related to their sales including long drives, large acreage, and unique features that required an appreciation and knowledge of the property to bring out their best selling points. Laif consistently went above and beyond to meet our needs and do whatever was needed to show and sell our properties. I've never worked with a realtor who was willing to as much as Laif did, with competence, to sell a property. We couldn't have asked more from the whole team and all of their efforts paid off with successful sales in every case. They took on our properties as if they were selling their own real estate and that kind of investment from a partner always has positive results. Thank you again Laif, Mary and Susana, it was a pleasure to work with each of you. Less

We worked with Laif to find out dream home. Laif is extremely knowledgeable when it comes to home quality/construction, and he’s PATIENT. A great quality to have when you have to deal with picky buyers like us. ☺️ He was a great middle man when it came to providing us information from the listing agent.

The most notable qualities of the M-Team was their patience and responsiveness in achieving our needs.

Laif was a pleasure to work with. He was responsive and understood our needs. We were moving from another state so it was a little more difficult but he was happy to do video showings. When it’s time to make a move we will not hesitate to call on Laif and his team again.

Mary and her team helped us find and purchase an amazing home in the Sierra foothills. I'd gladly work with them again, and heartily recommend the Margaratech Team any time you're planning to buy or sell your home.

Laif was very responsive to all communications and handled every detail on getting the property ready for sale through the final sale and getting the deal closed. Being inexperienced in real estate transactions can cause high stress levels. We feel fortunate that we were with the Margaretich Team as their knowledge and communications on explaining and keeping us informed made the transaction painless! Good job Laif! Less

Working with Mary and her team is simply a joy. She can find you a great place that fits exactly what you were looking for and at a great price. I highly recommend them!

Can’t say enough good about the Margaretich team. Mary, Britica and Laif have gone above and beyond for us. They made escrow a breeze and walked us through the whole process as first time home buyers. We really felt taken care of through it all and even had fun through what can be a stressful time. So grateful for them!!!

Mary and her team are simply the best. They are extremely knowledgeable of the the area and go above and beyond with their customer service! I cannot wait to buy another home with her (and team) at the helm.

Mary and her team get it done! She is my go to real estate agent. They've sold a couple houses for me and I've purchased a couple. They've worked with my friends and family also.

If you want to work with a real estate agent that has years of experience in Nevada County and knows what to do to get it sold or probably even has something listed that will work for you if you're looking to buy.

I have worked with Mary and her team for many years and I can safely state that they never give up to provide their clients exactly what they are looking for. I highly recommend the Margaretich real estate team!!

Mary is AWESOME! So passionate, so knowledgable, so thorough!

What, what!! $75k over asking price on our condo - thank you Mary!!! She's a tough cookie who's willing to negotiate the best deal for her clients. I highly recommend Mary and her team.

Mary is a great realtor! Knows her stuff and the county! Would highly recommend her for all of your realtor needs.

Mary and her team are true professionals and take the time to really understand their clients to help them successfully navigate through the buying and selling process.

I have never met a Realtor who is as dedicated to their clients like Mary is. She is willing to go above and beyond to find them exactly what they are looking for!

Mary is a real; pro. Used her to buy a nice 5 acre parcel in Grass Valley. She is attentive, professional and moves quickly. Knows the area and the current market. I recommend her highly.

Mary always takes time to answer questions. She is available at a phone call to show me property. We have bought and sold with Mary for 11 years. Wouldn't have any other realtor!!! I would highly recommend Mary Margaretich for any of your real estate needs :)

When we decided to downsize to a smaller house with less property, our daughter highly recommended her, as she found her a wonderful house and a great deal. After several houses shown to us, Mary not only found us a beautiful home, but suggested how we could make it very affordable.

When we decided to downsize to a smaller house with less property, our daughter highly recommended her, as she found her a wonderful house and a great deal. After several houses shown to us, Mary not only found us a beautiful home, but suggested how we could make it very affordable. She was not only incredibly patient, but honest and tough enough to keep both us and the seller (and the other Realtor) moving and on track. We enjoyed dealing with her so much, we asked her to list the home we had lived in. Not only did she list it, but promoted it, and found some imaginative financing for the buyers. As you can see, we are extremely happy with Mary’s work and will not hesitate to recommend her services to anybody in the market. She is a solid professional Less

Mary is a true real estate professional. I am always impressed with her knowledge of the local market and ability to find hidden gems for sale.

Great lady, really knows her stuff when it comes to buying or selling property.

I have heard from many satisfied homeowners that Mary "goes above and beyond" for her clients. I love to tell people looking for an agent about Mary because I know she will help them find what they are looking for. I only wish I had a need for a home, and when I do Mary will be the one to help me!! Carrie Ann
