She showed us both single-family and multifamily properties and provided valuable insight into the San Clemente and Dana Point markets, including rental potential and investment considerations. Although we ultimately decided to pause our purchase for now, we were so appreciative of Holly’s time, patience, responsiveness, and expertise. She never pressured us and truly had our best interests in mind every step of the way. When we decide to move forward in the future, Holly will absolutely be our first call!

When the timing was finally right, Holly helped us sell our home in North Tustin and purchase our new home in Aliso Viejo, and we could not be more grateful. Holly was knowledgeable, patient, strategic, and incredibly supportive throughout the entire process. She guided us through the sale of our home with confidence and then helped us navigate the buying side with care and professionalism. At one point, we opened escrow on a home in Brea, but after inspections revealed some concerning information, Holly helped us evaluate everything clearly and supported us in canceling the transaction when it no longer felt right. We really appreciated that she always prioritized our best interests and peace of mind over simply closing a deal. After continuing our search, we found a home in Aliso Viejo that is truly perfect for us, and we are so excited for this next chapter. Holly’s experience, honesty, communication, and genuine care made all the difference. We highly recommend her to anyone looking to buy or sell a home.

From the very beginning through closing, my wife and I had complete confidence in her guidance and expertise. We are a demanding couple but also recognize when we are outside our area of knowledge especially in an industry like real estate where experience matters. Holly’s depth of knowledge was immediately apparent, and what truly sets her apart is her communication style. It is clear, responsive, and consistently thoughtful in a way that distinguishes her from other agents we’ve worked with. Long story short, we fell in love with a home that 12 other buyers also pursued including one all-cash offer. Holly guided us strategically through the entire process, helping our offer stand out in a highly competitive situation. Beyond the strategy, she took the time to build a meaningful relationship with the other agent, ensuring our story was heard and not just our offer price, but who we were as a family. That made a real difference in the outcome. The process was not confined to business hours. Holly was available late at night, throughout weekends, and consistently responsive no matter the time. I cannot recall a single call or message that went unanswered. Without hesitation, Holly is a top-tier professional who deserves to be recognized and highly recommended.

We flew in from the East Coast for just a few days to find our dream condo with a beautiful view in Laguna Niguel, and Holly made what could have been a stressful, overwhelming experience feel seamless and enjoyable. From the very beginning, her attention to detail and deep understanding of the market stood out. While we were still out of state, Holly went above and beyond, coordinating multiple FaceTime showings, walking through properties with us in real time, and offering thoughtful insights that helped us feel confident making decisions from afar. She truly listened to what we wanted and was incredibly intentional in narrowing down options that matched both our vision and lifestyle. Once we arrived in California, everything was perfectly organized and tailored to maximize our limited time. Holly was strategic, efficient, and always one step ahead, guiding us carefully toward exactly what we were looking for. When we found “the one,” she expertly navigated a very competitive situation that turned into a bidding war. Her strategy, responsiveness, and negotiation skills made all the difference – and thanks to her, we came out the winners. Beyond her professionalism and expertise, Holly is simply a joy to work with. She strikes the perfect balance of being proactive and supportive without ever making you feel pressured. We always felt like she genuinely had our best interests at heart. Thanks to her dedication, we found our perfect home, and we couldn’t be happier. We truly couldn’t have done it without her and give her our highest possible recommendation. If you’re looking for a realtor who is knowledgeable, strategic, and completely committed to her clients, Holly is the absolute best.

Holly and her husband Scott initially met with me 7 months ago and she suggested some changes to maximize the profit on my home sale. I had already moved 12 hours away, so I was very thankful Holly and Scott had people to do the improvements. Holly handled everything—from lining up and managing contractors for painting, kitchen countertops, new backsplash, and repairs—so the house showed at its absolute best. Thanks to her expert guidance, we received an offer $100,000 over asking almost immediately. Holly made what could have been a stressful process smooth and successful, even from a distance. We couldn’t recommend her more highly!"

Due to family issues, we have been taking our time to decide when and where we wanted to move. Holly's husband Scott is marvelous; he helped us remodel our kitchen several years ago in anticipation of selling our home. He got great prices for us and the work turned out so well. This year we decided we were finally ready to sell our Redondo Beach home. Holly, very wisely, advised us to move out, repaint inside and out in a fresh white color, and then stage the home. Moving out made this all so much easier, especially with our pets. It truly was the very best decision for us and made things so much less stressful. Thanks to her expertise and strategy, we sold over asking before the first open house! Holly is a true professional, a kind and caring person and we’re so grateful we met her and that she represented us in such a pivotal decision.

Holly made the entire process quick, smooth, and stress-free. We were looking for something in the Dana Point or San Juan Capistrano areas and we found the ideal home in San Juan Capistrano. Now, we’re in our forever home and couldn’t be more grateful. If you want a realtor who truly cares and gets results, Holly is the one!

Our situation was complicated — we had to sell our home in order to buy the next one, and on top of that, the buyers who made us a full-price offer on our home also needed to sell their home — a double contingency. Holly was very communicative, always calm, and handled the negotiations smoothly, keeping everything on track with a very tight timeline. At every step, she explained what was happening, gave us great advice, and made us feel confident that we were in good hands. Holly is incredibly knowledgeable, proactive, and fun to be around! What could have been a very stressful experience ended up going smoothly, and we’re so grateful for her guidance. We highly recommend Holly for all things real estate.

From our very first meeting, Holly was not only incredibly knowledgeable about the Dana Point market, but she was also patient, thorough, and always had my best interests at heart. Holly made the entire buying journey feel smooth and stress-free. She explained every step clearly, helped me understand all my options, and even negotiated a fantastic deal on my new condo. Her local expertise and warm, friendly approach turned what could have been an overwhelming experience into a really enjoyable milestone. I can't recommend Holly enough for anyone looking to buy or sell in the area!"

I reached out to Holly on a Thursday, flew in on Friday, and she was able to schedule three home tours that fit my criteria in less than 24 hours; it was impressive. She and her husband took me to lunch and shared their local knowledge of the area. Her promptness and dedication were incredible. We quickly identified the home I loved the most, and Holly was a great negotiator in getting the deal moving. Throughout the escrow process, we hit a few bumps since the purchase was contingent on the seller getting their own replacement home. Holly navigated every challenge with expertise, keeping me informed and at ease the entire time. She even got three different contractors to give bids on the repairs and improvements I want to do to the home. In the end, we successfully closed, and I couldn't be happier with the outcome. I was impressed with Holly's professionalism, responsiveness, communication and deep knowledge of the local market made all the difference; she made the process for an out of state buyer easy. I highly recommend her to anyone looking for a top-notch real estate experience!

Holly was incredible to work with! She was extremely responsive, knowledgeable, and proactive from day one. My home sat on the market for three months with another agent and didn’t sell. Holly came in with a clear vision, helped me renovate and upgrade the kitchen, brought in excellent contractors, and beautifully staged the home. The transformation was unbelievable — and the home sold in just five hours! She even fronted the money for the updates too! I highly recommend Holly for any real estate transaction. She goes above and beyond and delivers real results.

We are so grateful to Holly McKhann for helping us sell our home so smoothly! We needed to sell in order to buy our dream home, and Holly guided us through every detail with expert strategy and calm confidence. She helped us prepare for our home sale, brought in beautiful marketing that attracted strong interest, and negotiated a great offer quickly enough so everything lined up with our purchase. Even when we didn’t get quite as much as we had hoped, Holly’s skillful negotiation on the purchase side made the entire move still work beautifully. She coordinated both escrows flawlessly, closing our sale one day and our new home the next. The timing, communication, and care she provided were exceptional. Holly truly made what could have been a stressful process feel easy and organized—we couldn’t have done it without her!

Holly helped us purchase our first home 4 years ago, sell that home last year and purchase our new home this year (beating 9 other offers!). For every transaction, we knew she was not only the right person to represent us, but hands down one of the best agents in the region. For every transaction and in between, Holly was there every step of the way. From setting up Zoom calls with her and her team to discuss market conditions so that we can make the most informed decisions on our home to setting up meetings with the Starks Team to secure financing seamlessly. Holly answered every call, email or text within minutes, no matter what time of day or night. She is also one heck of a negotiator, finding hot button items that can turn a transaction your way. Her advice guided us in making some of the most important decisions for our growing family. My wife and I would not consider working with any other realtor for any future transaction. Holly is a friend and 'rock star' agent, and we highly recommend her to anyone that is selling or searching for a new home, especially in today's real estate environment. If you are serious about buying or selling your home, you cannot take chances on having weak representation. Holly's years of experience, expertise and responsiveness will get you what you want. Thanks again to Holly and her team for being a pleasure to work with and we look forward to working with you again in the future!

She recently helped us find our vacation home in Dana Point so we could be close to our son and granddaughter. We knew what we wanted and she made it happen. She had our back and proved to be very ethical and trustworthy throughout the entire process. She has great connections and is very knowledgeable of the area. We can't say enough good things about her and would use her again without a doubt! Highly recommend!!! Thanks again Holly! J&J

She was dedicated to helping us get the deal for the home we wanted, and worked through many unexpected issues along the way. As first time home buyers, the entire process was unknown and a bit frightening to us. Holly remained incredibly responsive to all of our questions and concerns, ultimately helping us find a great place at a great deal; thanks to her expertise, we were able to get thousands in credits back during escrow, which have been instrumental in transforming the house into a home for our family. We're very grateful for the service she provided and highly recommend that you partner with her for your needs.

She really went to bat for us with the purchase of our first home in a very competitive market! She was very attentive with the seller and her follow up was impeccable! We won the bidding war over 11 other offers! We are so excited to move into our dream home. We can't thank her enough!

She helped us win out over other offers by making our offer super competitive and compelling. Holly's relationship with the listing agent helped us beat out the other buyers because that agent trusted her and was happy to work with her again. Even in dealing with some pet damages from the prior tenant, she was able to arrange the seller give us additional appliances instead of her stressing out about the repairs. Holly even generously took us out to dinner to celebrate at the end. We are very satisfied and would definitely recommend her!

She and her husband Scott were patient with my wife and I through the "should we, shouldn't we, purchase the home" portion of the decision making process in buying a place. Once we decided to move forward, she established a friendly relationship with the sellers agent and included a clause which allowed us to get the deal done. She goes the extra mile and is a pleasure to work with, and has a high level of integrity. My wife and I highly recommend her.

I learned that purchasing a home is a stressful process and my specific home purchase choice had a complexity that made me feel extra stressed. Holly and Scott recognized that immediately and helped in multiple ways, including getting on numerous calls, referring me to her resources, suggesting solutions, walking through the house, performing additional research, etc. We ran into couple bumps in the road from the beginning all the way up to the close of escrow, but Holly put in the time to navigate us through the obstacles to ultimately help me buy my home. I haven't worked with multiple realtors as of yet, so the only thing I can say is that I hope I can work with Holly again in the future!

She helped us find our condo almost 3 years ago and now that we were ready to sell she was very helpful. She provided us with tips to get the most for our home by offering simple and inexpensive suggestions, like replacing the bathroom light fixtures and where to add decorative pieces. We got above asking and had 4 offers within 3 days! Holly is quick to respond to texts and/or emails. When we are ready to buy again we will use Holly for her professionalism and knowledge but also because she makes you feel like you are her most important client!

After many years of purchasing homes, turning homes and spending exceptional amounts of time in construction as well as remodeling... We can honestly say that we found a dynamic duo. First starting with the description of Holly McKhann... What an incredibly intelligent, articulate and ready to please individual. Her professionalism is incomparable, and her response time is remarkable. She is resourceful and is more than just a person looking for a commission. She has a impressive history of successful escrows that is complimented by clients of many cultures and backgrounds. She surprised us with the personal touches and overwhelming energy. She has every corner covered when it comes to your needs and wants. We purchased a beautiful home in Dana point and closed today... And could not speak in a higher regard to the experience for any real estate agent or person reading this review there should be a how to video made following in her steps. She is genuine, honest upfront and always available. She places a personal touch and a personal interest in all of the things that she does. Now! if that is not enough... She is also married to a like personality. Scott Mckhann is an extremely intelligent, well rounded individual with also a real estate background. However in our scenario we needed information regarding construction, remodels, city planning, architecture and design... His wealth of information knowledge is apparent in many regards. He is about as helpful as a person could possibly be and always there to offer well-rounded opinion. His personal energy is outstanding as is the team as a whole. He brings a certain level of professionalism and resources that no real estate team does. He is friendly and a warm personality. The individual experiences are exceptional, however the duo as a team is something completely different from any real estate experience you will have. We highly recommend Holly and Scott... We will not go anywhere else nor will we ever trust our investments and property and or direction and selection with anyone else. Thank you so much for everything you've done, do and continue to help with. Vincent & Maria

Holly made it as easy as it can be. She was very knowledgeable and wonderful to work with, it felt like having a friend work for you. She actually went beyond what could be expected from a realtor. My wife likes to say that even though she had a pretty high bar in terms of expectations, Holly exceeded that. We totally recommend Holly McKhann to anyone looking to sell, buy or rent.

Since this was our first home purchase, they helped us throughout the whole process and they made it extremely easy and pleasant. They're very knowledgeable, professional and were always patient with us. The property was not VA approved, but Holly and Scott facilitated with the seller to get it approved and we still closed quickly. We highly recommend Holly and Scott and we'll be using them when we decide to sell. Thank you Holly and Scott for a great buying experience!

She helped present my qualifications to the owner and did a great job of selling me to her. Holly helped me win out over multiple prospective tenants to get the home I wanted. I would highly recommend Holly. She was great to work with!

We found the perfect place, but it was not without a few challenges first. We entered into two previous Escrows on properties that turned out NOT to be our ultimate fit. Holly was patient & professional and had our best interest's in mind all along. I highly recommend using Holly for your Real Estate needs.

Holly has become our trusted advisor through the course of the sale of this home. She helped us evaluate the best course of action with regards to this rental property, then execute the plan. She hired a contractor to renovate the home to maximize the sales price. She and her husband, Scott, carefully evaluated the proposed improvements and analyzed what would yield the best return on investment for each facet. She communicated with us regularly to give us updates and ask for our feedback at every turn. The home sold before the first open house because it looked so great. She interfaced with the challenging HOA to get the needed termite work done just in time to close the sale. We are so happy and highly recommend Holly to help you sell your home.

From our first contact with Holly we knew that we were working with a professional, intelligent and honest realtor. Holly showed us a condo for investment in Dana Point. Immediately she read our cues and knew that this particular condo was not going to be a good fit for our needs. . Holly quickly recommended an alternative condo complex that was much more desirable with a better return on investment. After we saw the alternative area, we saw one that we liked but it had already gone into escrow while we were contemplating the purchase. Knowing that this was "the one" Holly stayed in contact with the listing agent and helped submit a backup offer that was accepted not long after. She helped us navigate the process of inspections and paperwork with ease, explaining any details we requested information on. Overall we are very happy with her service and definitely recommend her.

I know many Agents and met Holly at a property I was looking at. Holly was never pushy, she was extremely knowledgable and ethical. I was reluctant to use a stranger since I knew many real estate agents; however, I could not have been more impressed and pleased throughout my entire transaction. Holly was always honest and spoke from the heart and not from her pocket. She was always available and never stopped working or helping me, even after our transaction was completed. She treated my money as if it were her own and followed through with every dime I spent to make sure I would get every penny promised throughout the transaction. I trusted Holly 150% when she reviewed all documents prior to me signing. My dealings with Holly have been flawless. If you are looking for an Agent with a heart, knowledgable and who you can trust with everything throughout the entire process, Holly is your gal! Holly is perfect and I appreciate everything she has done from my heart! Thank you so much for being there for me and I am thankful that I met you!

She helped us purchase this home in Laguna Beach then and now she helped us sell it. We kept the home as an investment with tenants in it, but we decided it was the right time to sell when the tenants gave notice a couple of months ago. Holly got beautiful photos taken and worked around the tenant's schedule to do that. The buyer tried to negotiate an extra credit for repairs after we were in escrow, but Holly pushed back hard and we only gave half of what they requested. We had the extra challenge of one of us being overseas and dealing with international notary issues, but Holly researched all of that and worked out the procedures with her title company to make the sale go through with no problems. This is our second time working with Holly and she did a fantastic job for us. We are so happy!

She showed me multiple homes and really knew the ins and outs of the area. She was very patient and really took time to listen to what I wanted. I highly recommend you consider Holly if you need an agent in the south orange county area. She is a masterful negotiator and her extensive experience with hundreds of clients makes her top notch in her field.

Holly helped us analyze what to repair and improve before listing to maximize the asking price on our home. Her extensive experience in this area from her own house flipping led her to tell us not to replace the HVAC unit before listing because she knew it would not bring a higher sales price. We received multiple offers in the first few days of listing, and Holly helped us compare and choose the best one for us. We were so happy and relieved to sell our home when other homes in the area were falling out of escrow due to COVID issues. Holly also referred us to an excellent realtor in the Seattle area who helped us with the purchase of our new home. She has an extensive network and group of contacts because of her first-rate knowledge, friendly personality, and realtor skills. We would recommend Holly with the highest confidence!

She didn’t just push me to sell, she helped me carefully strategize whether selling my home in San Juan Capistrano was the right move and encouraged me to consult with my financial advisor and CPA before making a final decision. After speaking with them, we all agreed that selling now made sense. We signed a listing agreement 6 months ago and Holly helped me plan ahead for everything that needed to happen once my tenants moved out. She gathered multiple staging bids, created a clear preparation plan, and once the home was vacant, she took care of the necessary steps to get it ready for market, including staging. Her marketing was excellent, including professional exposure, YouTube videos, and open houses every weekend. Thanks to Holly’s preparation, strategy, and consistent effort, the home sold in just three weeks for a price I was very happy with. I truly appreciated her guidance, professionalism, and thoughtful approach throughout the entire process.
