Molly is an outstanding Realtor who keeps her client’s best interest #1. She has now represented our family in 4 very successful real estate transactions since 2016. Last year she sold our home in La Canada off market at top dollar. We moved out of state, but we missed La Canada and decided to return. With historic low inventory and a competitive buyer market, Molly helped prepare us to enter the market, found us an exceptional home, and closed with a winning negotiation against multiple offers. Molly has become a close and trusted family friend. We confidently recommend Molly Cronin as an experienced real estate agent who truly cares about her clients. She really is the best!

Molly recently represented us with the sale of our home in La Crescenta, CA. Her assistance in the process far exceeded any expectations that we had.
- First, she was invaluable as a design consultant in the months prior to listing as we remodeled and finished our home after a minor fire caused smoke damage throughout the house.
– She was instrumental in providing us with tradesmen and professionals to complete the many details of finishing what was essentially a re-build from the studs in.
– She marketed the house expertly, creating a strategy that yielded a selling price of more than $300,000 over our listing price.
– Her proactive and comprehensive approach to providing disclosures and inspections such as chimney and sewer lines as well as a complete re-model and maintenance history made for a delay-free escrow.
– Her extensive experience and knowledge made the escrow process easy for us,. She was always available, addressing any questions or concerns immediately.
Molly is an outstanding real estate agent; friendly, efficient, knowledgeable, and extremely hard- working. We therefore whole-heartedly recommend Molly Cronin for any real estate needs.

As a first time home buyer in a competitive market, I was worried about the purchasing process and how much time it would take me to get a house. Molly guided me through the stressful process, foreseeing and correcting any issues that came up.
Once I found a place I was in love with, Molly aggressively fought to get an accepted offer. Although I was a first-time buyer, she was able to position my offer package in a way that caught the attention of the home sellers. This included creative ideas and incentives that made me stand out. The sellers chose my offer over several higher bids, including all-cash. I was blown away that the first offer I made on a house was accepted, and Molly assisted in making sure that the process before and after that went off without a hitch.
During negotiations on closing costs, Molly fought tirelessly to get me a fair deal that would allow me some money to fix small issues that the house had. From start to finish, we pulled off the purchase in less than four weeks, a true feat in a busy home market!
I have been in my house for a little over a month now, and love the home I live in! With the money Molly saved me on closing, I have been able to upgrade the air conditioner and add fancy new shutters to the windows. I was worried about homeownership, but with Molly’s help, I have been at ease since the day I knew she was on my team!

Molly skillfully and successfully navigated the off-market sale of this property.
During our initial consultation, we were immediately impressed with her preparations, marketing research and price strategy. Throughout entire process, she was proactive with every aspect, large or small, of the transaction. She arraigned for and was on sight for every property inspection. This supervision was particularly helpful as she guided us through which inspections were important; we also benefited from her drawing from her firm’s deep experience with various contractors and inspectors.
Molly gracefully handled a number of issues that presented potential problems to the sale closing; her handling of these is a testament to her professionalism and experience. She was supportive and knowable along every step of the process.
We are pleased to recommend Molly as a highly capable and experienced real estate agent and would be please to work with her again in the future.

Buying and selling a home at the same time is not for the faint of heart! Thankfully, I had Molly! She used her extensive knowledge, resources, and experience to help me with this complex transaction. Yes, there were a few hiccups, but Molly skillfully worked with me to resolve them. She kept me in the loop and was in constant communication with both escrows, agents, and lenders to ensure both transactions closed. Thank you, Molly,!!

Molly helped us buy our first home. She went above and beyond to help us find our dream home, get it inspected and renovated. Not only was she available 24/7 when we were in the process of looking through listings, she helped us do our due diligence to thoroughly inspect our home during escrow, and then helped us find local contractors to renovate it.
She made the process so easy and delightful, ensuring that we would cherish the memory of this important step my husband and I took for the first time as newlyweds. She is absolutely wonderful!

My family and I went on a one year journey with Molly to find our dream home in beautiful, La Canada Flintridge. Our journey began with the sale of our home in Mt. Washington. Molly provided guidance on what needed to be done before the property went to market.
Our home sold quickly thanks to Molly’s excellent marketing strategy.
When we found our dream home, Molly used her exceptional knowledge of the real estate market and experience as a negotiator to carefully craft an off market offer that was accepted by the sellers. We entered escrow before the property went to market thus avoiding competition from many potential buyers.
During the escrow process, Molly closely monitored the entire transaction, making sure documents were reviewed and completed in a timely manner. She scheduled appointments with all the inspectors and received bids on repairs. She arranged for an interior designer to provide consultation on what needed to be done to update the home. Molly also provided contacts to some of her best contractors to help with the remodel.
Given the mountain of paperwork involved, the entire process went smoothly, and I was able to close escrow in 30 days!! After seven weeks of remodeling, my family and I now live in our new home and enjoying it. All the contractors referred by Molly did an incredible job and were wonderful people to work with! I truly felt that she genuinely cares about the clients that she represents.
If you are looking to buy or sell real estate, I would highly recommend Molly Cronin!

We want to thank you Molly Cronin for helping us to sell our home in the Greenridge Estates in La Canada Flintridge and purchase our brand-new beautiful home on Hampton Rd in La Canada Flintridge.
In a seller’s market, you were successfully able to negotiate the purchase of our new Hampton Road home at a price lower than asking, with a contingency to sell our Greenridge Drive home. This entire process was done seamlessly and with the highest professional standards.
You beautifully and tirelessly marketed our Greenridge home with stunning print & online marketing, staging, multiple open houses and network agent marketing until you found the right buyers.
You walked us through both transactions simultaneously, paying attention to every detail, always staying in communication with us, and most importantly, keeping our best interests at hand.
On our new construction home, you continued to make sure all outstanding repairs and touch ups were completed, long after escrow had closed.
We love our new home, and we are so grateful you represented us on both transactions. You have become a true and trusted friend to our family.

Molly Cronin has done a superb job in helping us buy our first home and convert our dreams to reality.
She has been one of the kindest and most professional people we have ever met. Throughout the search and purchasing process, she has been very through, diligent, open and understanding of our needs. Her deep knowledge and experience on key factors for a well-built and well-maintained house has been immensely helpful for us as new homeowners. She was incredibly careful about bringing many physical details we didn’t even notice or know about to our attention.
During the negotiation process, she acted very intelligently and continuously kept us in the loop. She has always been very responsive. Even after the whole transaction was closed, Molly kept in touch with us offering her support and mentorship for every aspect of homeownership.
I strongly recommend Molly to everybody looking for a house in this beautiful neighborhood, especially to first-time buyers.

Molly helped us purchase our first home in the La Crescenta area. She was exceptional in every way. She made sure to understand what we were looking for in a home and continually advised and guided us in the home buying process. Not only is she very knowledgeable, but she is also very well connected to other realtors and home builders in the area who provided valuable perspective in our decision to purchase our home.
When writing our offer, she understood the terms that were required to compete in a multiple offer situation. Our offer was accepted over 15 other offers. Still, we appreciated that she really negotiated hard on our behalf on specific deal points to protect us and to give us peace of mind on the purchase. It was a pleasure working her, and I would strongly recommend her.

Molly Cronin went above and beyond the call of duty. She was pleasantly aggressive in securing the purchase of our home. During a tight market, she was able to establish us as number one, in a short period of time, against competitive buyers.
We had a long drawn out sale, due to new construction and Molly was there helping during all the delays. Even after moving she was an amazing referral source for many services we needed.
She truly cares about her clients. We will certainly be sending buyers and sellers her way and look forward to calling on her for our next purchase or sale.

I highly recommend Molly to anyone looking to buy or sell a home. She is an exceptional realtor who is proactive, efficient, diligent, hugely knowledgeable, and a really kind person who is a delight to work with!
Molly helped me purchase my first home a few years ago. She deftly navigated a competitive multiple offer situation, and my offer was accepted. The home was a complicated probate sale that took a few months, and she kept the process on track, explained every step to me, scheduled appointments with the inspectors, advised on future improvements to the home, dealt swiftly with any hiccups, and was overall a dream to work with. Throughout the whole process I benefitted enormously from her strong knowledge of real estate law. She made sure everything went smoothly even as I was traveling out of the country. Knowing Molly was handling things alleviated so much potential stress.
This year, Molly helped me navigate my first home sale. She did extensive research to determine how to position the listing price, coordinated a number of repairs and improvements, and did an outstanding job marketing—her staging was beautiful, the photographs were lovely, and all the marketing materials were first rate. I was thrilled with the offers the home received. During escrow, she again carefully walked me through all the paperwork and kept me apprised of next steps.
Molly seemingly never gets tired; she is available at all times to answer every question and deal with every issue. She is always well-prepared, anticipating and averting potential problems. She is extremely knowledgeable about the entire process and how best to position oneself as both a buyer and a seller. I’m so grateful for her!

I was referred to Molly by a friend of a family friend. I had worked with a few realtors over the years, but I was a first-time buyer. While I was motivated to buy, I will admit I was very apprehensive about buying in a Los Angeles seller’s market. Molly was the perfect realtor to work with under those circumstances. She was responsive, knowledgeable, and took the time to listen to me and tailor her moves to my needs. Every time we saw a property, Molly spent time walking around the property – both inside and out – to point out things she saw, including red flags, that I would never have noticed myself. That gave me the confidence that she was looking out for my interests and not just a quick commission.
In the end, she guided me to a great condo in the perfect area for me. During this process she was able to negotiate an off-market deal on an updated unit at a great price.
Work with Molly and you won’t be disappointed.

Molly helped us find, and successfully purchase, our dream home. She skillfully assisted us in navigating the market, taking the time to fully understand our needs and desires.
We were looking at a broad area spanning multiple cities and Molly was able to bring an impressive knowledge base equally to all the areas.
She acted as a trusted advisor when viewing homes – their potential, providing candid review of issues and strengths, including future marketability.
We also benefited from her drawing from her firm’s deep experience with various contractors and inspectors. Molly was always ready to help us view any property, was always prepared, and was proactive in working with the listing agents.
She was supportive and knowable along every step of the process.
We are pleased to recommend Molly as a highly capable and experienced real estate agent and would be delighted to work with her again for buying or selling of any type of property in the future.

My wife and I had a successful real estate experience with Molly Cronin. Molly brings a unique set of skills to the selling and buying of real estate. She is knowledgeable of real estate law and policy, and, equally important, demonstrates exceptional follow up from the submittal of an offer to the closing of a transaction.
We had the unique challenge of selling our home in order to purchase a new home. Molly led and negotiated the selling of our home in a timely and profitable manner, which in turn allowed us to purchase our new home as desired.
Throughout the process, Molly kept us informed of all contingencies, requirements and options, and consistently looked out for our best interests and well being.
We are now enjoying our beautiful new home and grateful that we had Molly Cronin in our corner.

Molly was fantastic during the purchase of our new home, from start to finish. We initially began our search in a neighborhood entirely different than the one we ended up in and Molly was patient, knowledgeable, and rolled with us throughout.
A consummate professional, Molly gathered critical information before every step and stayed on top of the transaction. This was new construction and due to complications with the city of Los Angeles, we were unable to get a Certificate of Occupancy before closing escrow.
Molly worked with multiple lenders we targeted that would fund without the CofO. She knows the business and greater LA area well and is clearly invested in getting to know her clients and their needs.
We recommend Molly to anyone looking to purchase or sell a home. She and her team will get the job done without a detail missed.

We want to extend our gratitude to Molly Cronin for being an excellent realtor. Molly helped us in selling our previous house and in finding a new home for our family. We were very uncertain about how these processes would go.
We had so many questions and doubts about selling our house at the right time and finding a new house to move into right after selling our property. Molly was always there to assure us that everything was fine and to answer all our questions. She also gave us a lot of different strategies on how to accomplish our goals of selling and buying in a very short period of time. She was always available when we needed her, and she never pushed us into doing anything that we didn’t want to do. She was there every step of the way.
Molly is everything that anyone would look for in a realtor. She is extremely professional, very knowledgeable, honest, kind, patient, helpful, and determined. We had the privilege of working with Molly for the past four months, although we met Molly about a year ago. In that time, she helped us sell our house and find the perfect home for our family. We are so grateful to have worked with Molly.
We would definitely recommend Molly Cronin to anyone who is looking for a great, honest, and hard-working realtor.

La Crescenta & Montrose
Molly did an outstanding job in representing us when we purchased our home and we strongly feel the need to share our positive experience with others.
Right from the start, Molly inquired about the details we were looking for in a home, made suggestions of what we might look for that we had not even thought of, and was diligent when it came time to sharing listings, doing walk throughs, and answering our questions. As we narrowed down the neighborhoods we were interested in, the search became easier because Molly knew exactly what we were looking for.
When we did find our house, Molly’s knowledge and expertise was even more evident when it came to evaluating comps in the area as well as potential improvements we might make in the future. In today’s sellers’ market, we are confident that Molly got us a great deal on the perfect home.
Coordinating with the parties involved (listing agent, inspector, contractors, etc.), Molly was always there and kept us regularly updated and informed. While she did always return our phone calls, I think she was calling and texting us more to keep us in the loop.
Thanks to Molly, we felt educated, informed, and empowered during the entire process and we couldn’t have asked for a better experience.

We met Molly at an open house, and a good relationship was quickly built. Soon it became clear that Molly was knowledgeable, and well connected within La Crescenta, and La Canada areas.
She was very responsive, and helpful throughout our complicated buying process. We liked that despite her knowledge and professionalism she was humble, and down-to-earth. In this most competitive area,
Molly’s acumen helped in finding the right house, and executing all paperwork, inspections, and correspondence expeditiously. We would recommend Molly without reservations.

Molly extensive market research and understanding of the Tujunga real estate market enabled her to analyze our situation and successfully position our house to sell at its true unique value, not just at its nominally appraised value.
Right from the beginning of our professional relationship, she thought outside the box to figure out how to position our house as part of wider area of unique homes, rather than just the ones in our local neighborhood. The quality of photography & marketing materials was excellent.
Molly understood that the buyer, if they required lending, would need to deliver at least a 50% cash down payment or have assets that could cover loan to value, since the home would not appraise. She successfully targeted and found our buyer.
Our home sold for the highest price per square foot in Tujunga. Molly was respectful, efficient, and communicated well with both ourselves, the buyer and his agent. I highly recommend Molly. It was a pleasure working with her.
