About Mary Lou Gross
Selling or buying a home or real estate investment is often the single largest transaction most of us will ever make. I have had the privilege of assisting hundreds of buyers and sellers with their residential and investment real estate transactions since beginning my career with Gateway Real Estate in 1985.
I provide expert real estate counseling, buyer and seller representation, and access to the latest technologies, along with a thorough understanding of the Ashland and Rogue Valley real estate market, whether in town, in the country, residential, or investment.
As a trained mediator, I bring strong negotiation skills to every transaction and am dedicated to helping clients achieve their real estate goals. Whether you’re buying or selling in Ashland, Talent, Phoenix, Medford, or elsewhere in the Rogue Valley, I provide personalized guidance and local market expertise to ensure a smooth, successful outcome. I would be delighted to meet with you to discuss your real estate needs and help you find the right home or investment opportunity.
I grew up in the Midwest, moved to the San Francisco Bay Area after college, and started my family in Sausalito, CA. After visiting the Rogue Valley and Ashland, I fell in love with this vibrant community. I have lived in Ashland since 1985, raising my children here, and I remain active in local organizations that support children, families, and community initiatives.
