Maura has been impressing Peninsula clients since 2004. A Hillsborough native and Burlingame resident, she’s highly involved in her community and brings a deep level of knowledge, intuition and experience to all of her clients business.  Even with the Peninsula’s extremely complicated market, her ability to identify and explain micro-areas within neighborhoods consistently helps her clients price and market their homes properly.  With a trained eye to identify necessary preparations to market a property, she along with her team of professionals, flawlessly implements the preparations and devises a marketing plan that sets the stage to deliver the highest possible price for her clients.

 

A Hillsborough native and daughter of a real estate investor, Maura has been surrounded by the real estate industry for all of her life.  With a passion for property and a love of interacting with people, success in the real estate business comes naturally and is evident in the amount of care, compassion and effort she puts into every transaction.  Maura’s stellar reputation with other local agents gives her an enormous network that frequently bring her to hidden opportunities, off market listings and the top service providers for whatever her clients need to reach their goals.  Her fellow agents know that while she’s a tenacious negotiator, if working with her on a transaction, Maura will get the job done with a high level of integrity and commitment.

 

Maura’s clients depend on her to help them successfully navigate the highly competitive peninsula real estate market.  In a market where building awareness is key and the difference between a successful transaction or missed opportunity comes down to flawless execution, Maura consistently delivers.  Before becoming a realtor, Maura designed and executed high-end international corporate events which forced her to become a meticulous planner, demanded tight organization and honed her ability to think ahead.  That experience translates flawlessly into the orchestration required to drive teams of experts to deliver a smooth and stress-free process for her clients. 

Since results are all that really matter, Maura is proud to have a significant reference base of happy clients.  She’s helped many find their dream homes, and others realize their financial goals.  She’s set multiple dollar per square foot records.  But most of all, she finds incredible satisfaction in knowing that the mission of her job is really to help her clients live the lives they want.

Maura is a graduate of the University of Oregon and Alain Pinel Realtors Masters Program. She is a member of the Alain Pinel Realtors® President's Club, the National Association of Realtors, the California Association of Realtors and the San Mateo County Association of Realtors.

“You have to use Maura as your agent! She helped me purchase a home in San Mateo last month. She was extremely patient with me during the process of looking at 40 homes and submitting three offers over a six month period. She even wrote 15 letters to homeowners for me to see if they might sell because they had what I was looking for and to see if they would be interested in selling their home. Her intimate knowledge of the area, she grew up here on the Penninsula, helped me make the right choice for myself and my family. Maura is in the know on plans the city has on developing the area and the up and coming neighborhoods. She was always available 24/7 for questions and to see homes. Maura even helped me find an off market deal and negotiate a great price. Having never bought a home alone before there's no other agent I would have wanted by my side. She held my hand every step of the way! - Wendy ”

“Maura was a fantastic agent and we are delighted to provide this reference for her. As most people know, the real estate market is extremely competitive and having an agent by our side who was part of the community and not only knew inventory/pricing but also had strong relationships with sellers and other agents gave us confidence about moving forward with speed. She was also extremely well versed with the technical procedures and made sure all paperwork was done quickly & accurately. And last but not least she is a delightful person to work with: very responsive (she responded to most emails / texts within hours), professional and pleasant. Once we decided to buy a house, Maura quickly lined up properties for us to see including properties that were not yet on the market; her relationships in the community were key to seeing off-market properties. As soon as we liked a house, within hours she was proactively ready with benchmarks for us to understand the pricing in the neighborhood; within a day she had looked through all disclosures and made us comfortable with the condition of the house; and she visited the local government office to verify permits. Maura was deft during the negotiations: she had a clear grasp of the pricing that would close the deal and yet she never once pressured us. From seeing the house we finally bought to acceptance of the offer was just about a week and Maura's knowledge and responsiveness were key for us to get the house. Post acceptance of the offer, Maura was always on hand to answer questions about the closing process, working with the bank in making sure they were on track and answering miscellaneous questions about the many little things (moving company, termite protection, insurance etc) that come with a move. All in all, it was a great experience working with Maura and we would highly recommend her to anyone looking for a real estate agent. - Dhiraj ”

“I had the distinct pleasure of working with Maura Pratt as my realtor when I purchased my home in Burlingame. After struggling to sell a home in Brisbane with a different agent and later struggling with other agents to find a suitable home within my budget, I had just about given up on Burlingame. I was fortunate to have discovered Maura who was holding an open house in the exact area I was looking to find a home. From the moment we engaged in a discussion, I knew Maura had what it took to get me into that house. Maura was friendly and very professional throughout the entire process. She was extremely knowledgeable about the local market pricing as well as actual recent sales. Maura took time to drive me around the neighborhood showing me houses that were either recently sold or about to come on the market. She made sure that I was comfortable with what I was willing to offer and I never felt pressured working with her. Maura negotiated hard and continued to keep me informed throughout the process and her dedication to closing a deal was truly impressive. I would highly recommend Maura to any perspective buyers or sellers. If you are looking for a true professional and someone honest and reliable then you need to look no further than Maura Pratt as your real estate agent.”

“I highly recommend Maura Pratt. We were first time home buyers and she guided us through the process and we welcomed her expertise. She was extremely responsive and wrote offers for us overnight! She had a good feel for what the market dynamics were in terms of bidding . Even after we bought the home and I had a question on our property tax, she didn't hesitate to offer guidance. She also had a good network of vendors and other agents. Most of all, I trusted her from the get-go and she made me feel comfortable through and after the process. ”

“When we met Maura our idea of the ideal house was all over the place. She patiently helped us to explore different options and refine our goals so that we could better focus our search. When we finally found the right place she brought all the necessary resources to bear to enable us to make an aggressive, and ultimately successful, offer. We are in our home and could not be happier!”

Greg & Liz

“Maura supported us on the purchase of an investment property in March 2015. We feel incredibly fortunate to have had Maura on our side of the transaction. There is no doubt that Maura's vast experience, deep knowledge of the area and extensive networking paid off in financial terms for us - as we were able to buy 'off market'. Maura found us the perfect place, secured a private showing and negotiated a fair price for us, before the property was listed for sale. Maura was very active during the sales process, ensuring we were briefed regularly and communicating and advocating on our behalf with the various participants. Maura is a consummate professional. We are very happy with our purchase. ”

Helen and Chris

“Responsiveness / Availability: It's a welcome rarity to find someone who immediately answers and returns phone calls as Maura does. Ditto for the paperwork, documents, etc. This greatly simplified things for us. Dedication: Everything promised by Maura was done promptly, completely, and with follow-up to let us know the day-to-day status of our listing. Honesty: We appreciated the transparency of hearing negatives, as well as positives, at every step leading to the listing and sale of our house. Vendors: Maura has a team of established and experienced inspectors, contractors, title officers, etc, who are prompt and proficient like herself. Market Knowledge: We learned that everything Maura shared with us proved to be true and accurate. She did maximum research for us. Overall: Perhaps we can best sum up by saying we don't think twice about who to call with anything involving real estate.”

Dave & Maureen

“Maura arrived like an Angel to help us sell our family home. Although a very difficult decision and transition, she brought her compassion, finesse, patience, elegance, and personal investment! Maura negotiated the sale of our family home for the highest per square ft. in Burlingame history at that time! Maura introduced us to a team of professionals whom, not only were capable of readying our home, they became 'part of our family.' Each step of the way, Maura provided us with her incredible caring, important financial insights, real-estate knowledge, as well as even helping us clean, pack, and move. I can only enthusiastically recommend Ms. Maura Pratt personally and professionally! She is a true gift!”

Nicole

“Maura Pratt will always have my thanks and admiration for her friendship and her competence in taking me through the journey of selling my beloved house. A house I had lived in for many years and a neighborhood I loved. Maura was professional, competent, widely respected in the community and above all understood me as a client. She was patient and considerate with my questions and concerns. I was very impressed with the caliper of professionals she brought on board to ready the home for open houses and sale. Maura has excellent taste, a great “eye” and the ability to treat each client uniquely and with respect. I have nothing but the highest regard for Maura Pratt. I would not hesitate to recommend her services to anyone considering selling their home. She has the skills to offer real estate marketing advice, neighborhood knowledge and fully understands the market situation. As a footnote, at the time of sell, my house brought the highest dollar per square foot in Burlingame. Maura is a gem!!!”

“Maura is an incredible realtor. She helped us find the perfect home at a time when our family was in crisis and really needed to find a house on a tight timeline. By some miracle, Maura found us the perfect house, right in our budget, in the school district and neighborhood we wanted. There were several bids on the house and we were only able to get it due to her solid relationship with the seller's realtor. I am so grateful to Maura. Not only did she deliver, she is a wonderful, positive, honest person and a joy to work with. I will absolutely be calling her when we make our next move.”
