About Kara Cauthon

Marti and Maxine Gellens are so great to work with. We have worked with them over the years with multiple homes and have never been disappointed. They make us feel as though we are their only clients because of their quick response to any questions we may have. They epitomize professionalism in a very personal way.

Excellent, personalized service with effective marketing. Staff is a pleasure to work with.

We sold multiple properties through Maxine and Marti in the Del Mar area and are happy we did! Marti knows the area well and was stellar for all listing and sale matters from start to finish.

And as an an...
