Cory and Ian are a wonderful team who I trust implicitly. They are kind, caring, and did an amazing job selling our house. Highly recommend.
The team of Cory and Ian were amazing. They responded quickly to our request to sell and led us through all the steps that needed to happen. Without their help, I’m not sure we would have been able to prepare the home for sale so quickly. Then, we were impressed with their marketing of the home. Their guidance and experience along the way were invaluable. Great team!
We’ve been working with Ian and Cory on both the sale of our home and the purchase of a new one and cannot recommend them highly enough. The perfect blend of wisdom and partnership. To have their combination of experience and skill together would be plenty, but on top of it they are incredibly thoughtful humans. We’re grateful to have found them!
I’ll cut to the chase… Cory and partner Ian are the absolute best, as realtors plus as humans. I met them about a year ago just after my husband suddenly died. I needed to complete deferred maintenance on my current home, find a new home plus sell the current home. They stayed with me for a year now… never any pressure to buy or sell. I am now in a lovely new home which they helped me get for good price even in multiple bid situation. They were with me every step of the way fixing up my old home and sold it for a higher price than I ever hoped. The list of ways they helped me is way too long for a review. They have many contacts in construction and other home repair. And they are still with me helping me getting my new house fixed up perfectly. They know the Sonoma County housing market extremely well, especially West County, the house I sold was Sebastopol and Petaluma, where I moved. Anyone would be lucky to have Cory Maguire and Ian Kalember represent them. Call them now!
Cory Maguire and Ian Kalember are simply the best realtors in Sonoma County! They have many years experience in the area and definitely know the market.
Cory and Ian sold our family home in Sebastopol quickly and for a great price but we are especially impressed with their customer service. They have great resources available- from cleaning to landscaping to staging the property and everything in between.. They thoroughly explained to us what things needed to be done to the property in order to sell and assisted us in managing those tasks.
They both responded very promptly to our texts, emails and phone calls and always took the time to answer all our questions.
Cory and Ian are wonderful, honest people who can make the home buying/selling process smooth and easy. It was a pleasure to work with them and we will definitely use them in the future for any real estate needs.
Cory and Ian are an absolutely amazing team. Their service is incomparable. Caring, proactive, creative, extremely well connected with the community, they went far beyond what we have ever experienced with any realtors anywhere! We cannot recommend them highly enough. They were able to find us homes in a very difficult market. Absolutely THE BEST ever!
Recommended by nearby friends, Cory and Ian are a team who are performing at the top of the game. Very client focussed, and they are prepared to sweat the small details without delegating to an office of minions. Unusual.
If you are selling or buying in West Sonoma County, look no further.
Cory and Ian were fantastic in guiding us through buying our home in Sebastopol! It was a crazy market as there had been very little on the market – so when our soon-to-be-home came on the market, there was a bit of a frenzy. Cory and Ian were unfazed by it all – they had an excellent sense of the overall market, how the home was trending (re price), etc. And they were such a joy to work with. Furthermore, they’ve been tremendously helpful in the post-close experience as we’ve been navigating our move. Would work with them again 100 out of 100 times!
Cory and Ian are a superb team of realtors! They expertly handled a complex sale for my family that included navigating two trusts (within one large land parcel) and all communication with four siblings throughout the whole process. In addition, they went over and above in updating/refreshing our house and barn for sale without spending too much on these recommended improvements; they even coordinated the work with various service people! After interviewing several realtors for the sale of our property, Cory and Ian easily rose to the top because of their ability to understand the value aspects of our listing and how to best position it in the current marketplace. In addition, Cory and Ian were personable, responsive, and thorough as they moved us from listing to the final sale. I’d highly recommend this realtor team!
Cory and Ian were instrumental in setting my expectations and selling my two-acre property on short notice. After the sale, they also helped me secure a great house in a sweet neighborhood, in a crazy competitive market that has very little inventory. Cory and Ian were professional, fast, and relentless in making sure we covered all the details during closing and made selling and buying a home (within 60 days) as smooth and easy as possible.
Cory and Ian were a delight to work with. They listened carefully to what we wanted and quickly identified suitable listings for us to review. Luckily, we found the perfect place within a few weeks and with their guidance made the right offer and got our place. Everything seemed to come together effortlessly, thank you Cory and Ian.
We cannot recommend Ian and Cory highly enough. From the very beginning, they were incredibly proactive, thoughtful, and deeply on top of every logistical aspect of buying our home in Sebastopol. They helped us quickly see and evaluate the house, guided us through making a strong and timely offer, and stayed closely engaged with every important detail throughout the entire transaction. Their attention to detail was exceptional, and we felt so well cared for at every step of what can otherwise be a stressful and complex process.
What truly set Ian and Cory apart, though, was the care and genuine connection they brought to the experience. It was clear from the start that helping us buy a home was more than just a transaction or a service to them. They were truly invested in us as a family and in supporting a smooth, grounded transition into this next chapter of our lives.
Even after the sale closed, their support didn’t stop. As we settled into our new home and into the Sebastopol community more broadly, Ian and Cory continued to show up—connecting us with local services, trusted vendors, and people we needed as we got ourselves set up. That ongoing generosity and sense of partnership meant so much to us.
Ian and Cory are incredibly kind, thoughtful, and detail-oriented real estate agents, and truly wonderful humans to work with. We are deeply grateful for their guidance and partnership and would recommend them without hesitation to anyone looking to buy or sell a home in Sebastopol or throughout West County.
