"18 places in one weekend - 10 min at each house... that's how many homes my husband and I looked at before making our decision to purchase our home a week later.

Lori had no problem keeping up with our fast pace and made sure she was always 10 steps ahead. Within two months, not only did Lori help us purchase our new dream home, but she also helped me sell my townhouse prior. Lori didn't miss a beat, and it was nice to see her senior experience as both a seller 's agent and buyer's agent, both of which she performed at the highest level.
I am known to be extremely selective and maintain high expectations of my business partners and vendors. We met Lori through mutual friends at the Corte Madera Fourth of July Parade. I conveyed my high standards to her right away and she didn't flinch. Confidence, professionalism, market knowledge, real estate savviness, negotiating, thinking outside the box, results oriented and solution based are all attributes at Lori's core. She not only hears you but listens, really listens - she has an ear for what you are looking for in your new home, and also when you just need to vent. She makes you feel comfortable the moment you meet her.
When you are starting to write another life chapter with a new home, you want Lori Docherty at the beginning in the Foreword, on every page and in the Acknowledgements at the end and you'll end up with a bestseller."

Six years ago, Lori introduced us to Larkspur during our relocation from Los Angeles. We found the perfect spot within walking distance to downtown and our daughters' schools and won in a multiple-offer scenario. The home purchase went smoothly, and we enjoyed living there for six years. Now, as we relocate back to Los Angeles, we contacted Lori for assistance selling our house. She was exceptionally effective, and her understanding of the current market and contacts was impressive. Lori partnered with us to assess value based on the current market, recommended updates to command top dollar, managed the work, and crafted a strong marketing plan. Her contacts and networking ability allowed us to secure an offer that was too good to refuse the day before we planned to go to market. Her support throughout the process was invaluable. I highly recommend Lori as a professional real estate agent for buying and listing. "

You always put my health first and I am deeply grateful for that. Your advice was always spot-on. Your counsel and experience navigating selling in a volatile market allowed me to get the great offer for my house that I did, one which others thought was impossible. Your strategy was creative and aligned with my personal situation.
And, I love my new townhome, all on one level with my private elevator. You knew this place was right for me even though I initially resisted. You were patient and provided the counsel I needed. I am so grateful for all you have done for me. Thank you, Lori. Anyone that has the pleasure of working with you will get to experience the magic and drive that is Lori Docherty."

I didn't expect to find my dream home so quickly, but I did, along with several other interested buyers. Lori didn't give up and worked diligently on my behalf to come back with a strong counteroffer that was accepted. She is determined, professional, and successfully negotiated on my behalf. She kept me informed and was always very responsive to emails, texts, and phone calls. She has also been very resourceful after the sale closed. I will gladly recommend Lori to anyone wanting to buy or sell a home"

She made finding the perfect home from afar so easy, providing lots of information on specific neighborhoods, school districts, and even giving virtual tours of listings. She is so knowledgeable about the specific market and walked us through all the details of the home purchase. She was able to help us find a great home and negotiated a competitive offer, never pushing us outside our comfort zone. After the sale she was still there to assist with contractor and designer recommendations, which was so helpful to us without a local network. We would recommend Lori to anyone looking to purchase or sell a home."

Our advice is to listen to what Lori is telling you and take her advice seriously. She helped us buy a house in Ross, close escrow in 21 days and move 4 days later. At the same time she guided us on preparing our SF house to hit the market which sold in 5 days with multiple offers at $800K over the asking price during a transitional market! Lastly, Lori’s relationship with you does not end on the day you close escrow. She generously gives of her time and contacts depending on what you need. We highly recommend Lori Docherty."
