Work with Experience

Selling real estate in Southern California for close to thirty years, Pinnacle Estate Properties Realtor Maria Powell can attribute her success to her honesty, hard work, caring and humor. Maria began her career with Coldwell Banker and was with there for 8 years. For the next 14 years she was a shareholder and owner at Aviara real Estate. As of 2017 Maria has joined Pinnacle Estate Properties’ new office in Westlake Village. Maria now has the support of eleven local Pinnacle Offices with a national and international marketing team.

Fully 90% of her business comes from referrals and past clients. Specializing in residential sales throughout Southern California, Maria is consistently a top-producer, selling large volumes of homes while treating every client like they're the only client, always devoting 100% to every client. Whether they are a first-time homebuyer or a seasoned investor, she carefully walks each client through the entire home buying process. Maria’s additional experience with building and flipped homes gives her clients an added advantage of her knowledge and supply of an extensive list of reliable vendors.

Maria is not a commission-driven agent – she's the first one to tell her client not to buy a house if she feels that it's not right for them. She's also a hard worker, never stopping working for her client until she's given them the very best deal and the very best buying/selling experience.

She also treats her clients like they're part of her extended family. She does many events for them each year, and in turn she develops numerous contacts throughout the area.

Those who have Maria as their Realtor not only have a friend who is on their side every step of the way, they also have fun with one of their biggest financial purchases. Maria may be thoroughly professional, but she also makes the real estate process as stressful as possible. Her clients enjoy her straight-shooter style – it comes from her New York background.

Born and raised in New York, Maria has a background in the entertainment industry – with extensive experience in contracts. Before becoming a Realtor, Maria was a stay-at-home mom, raising her 2 daughters on her own. She also cared for her 2 elderly parents. So, she understands well both the challenges of raising kids in the area and the challenges facing older adults and their housing needs.

Maria Powell is a Realtor who combines her experience, caring heart, and sense of humor to bring satisfaction to each of her clients and make every real estate transaction a rousing success.
