WHAT WE MEAN BY WORKING MAGIC
We call ourselves Working Magic because it’s magic that brought us together, and it’s magic that we help our buyers and sellers create. We've heard it a lot from our clients (even before we landed on our name) - "You really worked your magic for us." We want to bust down the stereotypes of who Realtors are and how they serve. We are in it for the long haul and believe in the relationship imperative. We operate from a place of trust with people at the center. Without that, we can’t do our work. Working Magic brings smarts, sincerity, strategy and sometimes silly to the table.
For our sellers: We look at a house through a lens of today's buyers. How can it show up - and by show up we mean disrupt - someone's scroll. Sometimes it's rearranging furniture. Sometimes it's a coat of fresh paint. Sometimes it's a full-fledged remodel. Whatever the case, we share our design-centric vision, line up the magicians and get. To. Work. We'll show you what to expect for ROI and your anticipated costs and profit. Our marketing is industry-leading and we treat each listing like a brand we are launching. We deliver a vibe we know will resonate with its target buyer, and that's at the center of our strategy. We create an experience for the senses, with custom playlists, scents and visuals.
For our buyers: We know how big of a deal this is, and we want to make sure our buyers are informed, empowered, and excited - whether it's their first house or 50th. The systems we've developed have been nailed and scaled to proactively answer questions and tee up crucial information before our buyers have to ask. Our steady approach and even-keeled professionalism give the guidance and consistency our clients need. Our respect and no nonsense but nice approach within our industry has built us a reputation of a team our peers want to work with. And our shrewd negotiation and strategic communication skills bring home the results.
We’re smart, we’re strategic, we’re consistent, we’re kind.

I've bought and sold a few houses in my day and there's only one time I can honestly say the process was FUN--and that's the time I worked with Gabrielle and Lydia. Their enthusiasm was contagious, but they were also ready to shift into strategic and analytical thinking at the drop of a hat, making the whole process super smooth. - Kristin van Buskirk, seller + buyer
Wow! Buying property, especially for a first-time buyer, can be overwhelming. Gabrielle and her team made the process fun and easy!

Gabrielle is magic. We were able to buy our dream home because of Gabrielle's expertise. We've worked with Gabrielle twice now to buy a house and both experiences were equally amazing.
