Thorne Home Team · Marin County Real Estate
Real estate guidance for the decisions that actually matter
Naomi and Katherine Thorne help Marin County buyers and sellers compare the choices in front of them, understand the property and move through the transaction with a clear plan.
Buying and selling can both become noisy very quickly. Our job is to help separate what matters now from what can wait—and stay close to the details once the decision is made.
Where are you starting?
The useful first step depends on the decision in front of you
Buying in Marin
Compare communities before narrowing the search, understand the property-specific questions and shape an offer around more than the headline price.
Selling in Marin
Decide what preparation is worth doing, define the home's real competition and bring pricing, presentation and timing into one plan.
Thorne Home Team
Two Realtors®. One client experience.
Naomi and Katherine work as a team rather than passing pieces of the transaction back and forth. The property history, client priorities and next decisions stay shared.

Marin County
Marin is not one real estate market
Housing stock, terrain, commute, lot size and buyer expectations can change materially within a short drive. Good advice should change with them.
Start countywide when you are still comparing priorities, or move directly into San Rafael and Novato when the geography is already becoming clearer.
San Rafael
Older in-town housing, mid-century neighborhoods, hillside properties and east San Rafael create several distinct residential settings inside one city.
Novato
Northern Marin offers a broad mix of property types, lot sizes and residential settings, with a different space and commute equation.
Still comparing
Use the countywide guide when the decision starts with priorities rather than one fixed town.
The work before the listing
Real estate advice should reach the actual house
For sellers, the useful questions often begin before photography or pricing: what buyers will notice, what creates concern, which improvements make sense and which projects should stay off the list.
Naomi and Katherine's seller work has included sorting through belongings, making staging and repair decisions, and coordinating the practical work required to get a property ready for market.
Buyers deserve the same specificity. Disclosures, inspections, insurance, terrain, utilities, permits and future plans can all change the meaning of a particular purchase.
