Maxi Lilley

Maxi is an East Coast native from Philadelphia and a California transplant since 1990. She moved to Rockridge in 1997, where she and her husband are raising their two teenagers and two pets. As a longstanding member of the Rockridge community, Maxi has spent countless years supporting and fundraising for the local OUSD public schools and the Rockridge Community Planning Council, and she continues this today.

Maxi’s prior experience running her own residential interior design and landscape design firm gives her a notable leg up on the competition with her unique ability to truly transform a property. Her listings stand out with the look of a curated designer project, with special attention paid to details such as lighting, paint, and wallpaper to achieve “market maker” sale prices. Her buyers enjoy the benefits of having a professional designer along for the ride, pointing out design and architectural opportunities unseen to many, and connecting them with all the best resources after close of escrow.

Clients also benefit from Maxi’s 14-years of experience in marketing/advertising/PR, meaning her listings are well-priced and well-positioned to get maximum exposure, frequently landing on the pages of strategic media outlets such as the New York Times, SFGate, and Curbed. Her design, analysis, and marketing plans deliver guaranteed results. When it comes to presenting your offer, you can rest assured knowing Maxi will package and present your offer to the sellers and their listing agent in a singularly compelling way. And chances are she will already have a great relationship with the listing agent.

Consistently ranking in the top 20 East Bay Realtors, the 2020 Company-Wide Top Producer at Red Oak, the top-producing Rockridge Realtor, and voted by a landslide as the "neighborhood favorite" on NextDoor, Maxi offers her professional skills, services, and professional connections to select clients. As one of her recent clients put it, “Hire her if you can!”
