About Stuart Maus

Stuart helped us to look for a home in Rockridge for over one year. He was extremely patient, knowledgeable, and led us through every step of the buying process. He is friendly and fun to work with, which also helped with the sellers and seller's agents. He lives in the area, and has overseen building his own house, so he has a lot of practical experience with building and remodeling houses from the ground up, with the associated knowledge of the best local contractors. We highly recommend him to all our friends and colleagues.

I cannot say enough amazing things about Stuart Maus! I absolutely and whole-heartedly recommend him as an outstanding realtor. I met Stuart after interviewing four reputable agents, all of which were disappointing interactions. Each told me a short sale was my only option. They offered comparable properties that were half of what I owed. I have good credit and a short sale was not an option for me. Stuart listed my condo at the price I needed and with his hard work and diligence, was able to land a contract within 2 months! Throughout the process, Stuart kept me informed and had my best interest in mind. He was an excellent communicator, strong neg...

Over the course of almost a year, Stuart demonstrated knowledge of the local real estate market and was resourceful in his use of on-line resources (MLS, etc) to keep me appraised of the latest properties available. The properties Stuart sent were always consistent with my price range and architectural style. Stuart was very personable, yet upfront if he felt a home I expressed interest in would not be a good fit, citing structural flaws and other potential problems. It was clear he was looking out for my best interest and not just trying to make a deal. I felt like Stuart was working for me full-time every step of the way. Stuart's understanding of...

In 2012 my wife and I contracted with Stuart Maus both to list our existing house and represent us as buyers for our new house. Stuart provided what proved to be expert market knowledge both in pricing our house and guiding us through what upgrades would prove to attract buyers and return our investment. Much to our surprise, we held a single open house and were in contract the following week with an offer well exceeding our expectations. As pleased as we with the sale of our house, the purchase of our new house would prove far more challenging. Prior to working with Stuart I had little knowledge of short sales, what they truly mean and most importa...

I have been lucky enough to have worked with Stuart Maus throughout the process of selling my house and the protracted experience of buying a new one in an extremely challenging seller's market. Throughout, he was knowledgeable, supportive and patient as we negotiated through selling challenges and buying disappointments. He was critical to my final success in finding just the right place to buy as he used his experience and expertise in the bidding process and then finally, shared my delight when we were successful. He has my gratitude and full recommendation.
