Marli McGraw is a licensed REALTOR® with Seven Gables Real Estate in Huntington Beach, California, with 22 years of experience guiding clients through Southern California's most significant real estate transactions. Licensed since 2003, she has built her practice around calm, detail-oriented service for downsizing homeowners, seniors navigating life transitions, first-time buyers, move-up buyers, and rental property sellers.
Marli has closed 56 career transactions totaling $37.5 million in sales volume, including 10 transactions totaling $8.37 million in the last two years. She holds three nationally recognized designations: Seniors Real Estate Specialist (SRES), Accredited Buyer's Representative (ABR), and Real Estate Negotiation Expert (RENE) — credentials that align directly with the clients she serves.
Her expertise is deeply hyperlocal in Huntington Beach, with particular knowledge of the Sol Vista neighborhood adjacent to Bella Terra Mall. Her service area also extends across Orange, Riverside, San Bernardino, and Los Angeles counties, with successful transactions in Anaheim, Garden Grove, Santa Ana, San Clemente, Seal Beach, Corona, Chino Hills, Fontana, and Lakewood. Having lived internationally in Taiwan, Saudi Arabia, and Spain, Marli brings genuine personal insight into the stress of relocation — a perspective her out-of-state and cross-county clients consistently value.
In 2025, Seven Gables Real Estate honored Marli with the Frank McDowell Award, a whole-company distinction given to one individual annually for exceptional service and commitment. She also received the company's Best Exemplifying Core Values Award in 2019 and has been named a Five Star Professional for 12 consecutive years — a third-party recognition based on verified client surveys and awarded to fewer than 7% of agents.
Clients consistently describe Marli as knowledgeable, patient, and calm under pressure. She pre-screens properties before showings, builds clear pricing strategy, coordinates staging and trusted contractors, and stays involved well past the key exchange — particularly for senior and estate sales.
Beyond real estate, Marli volunteered with the Bolsa Chica Land Trust, where her conservation work was recognized with the Kennedy-Koplan Conservation Award in 2020.
