“At our first meeting Gautam had an accurate understanding of my neighborhood and it's surroundings. After walking through the house and the yards he gave a clear assessment of our home's value and the reasons why. He also had an idea of what types of buyers would likely show interest, and how to market our home to them. He had an excellent advertising package in mind. One day after being on the market we received a full-price offer. It fell through, but in line were two more full-price offers. The second potential buyer became the buyer. There were three issues with the property that arose and he handled them all. That was especially helpful as we were already out-of-state. The house sold without further issues. Gotham was easy to work with, and his expertise gave me confidence that things would be well-handled. I recommend Gautam highly, and would recommend him to family and friends.”
“She's very knowledgeable and she's the pro. She made a good deal with the property that I got. She was able to get a sellers credit that covered my closing cost. The amount is more than the closing cost itself. Ate Adora will guide you and explain all the details. She's also always available to answer your questions and is there when you need help. I highly recommend her. I'm grateful that I get to know her.”
“We are completey satisfied with Jim Tierney. We are so impressed by his integrity, honesty, and professionalism. With his years of experience, his advice and expertise were invaluable. We had the challenge of living out of the area during the sale. Jim was excellent with communication. The sale process was smooth and low stress with Jim guiding us through it. He was able to advise us in exactly what was needed to prepare the house for sale. His marketing strategy was excellent, resulting in the sale of the house in a little over 2 weeks at a good price with multiple offers. We give Jim our highest recommendation!”
“Working with Payal Kir was an outstanding experience from start to finish. She was there for every step of the home-buying journey—always accessible, highly knowledgeable, and deeply committed to making the process smooth and successful. Payal took the time to understand exactly what I was looking for and provided thoughtful guidance and expertise throughout the search, negotiations, and final closing. Her professionalism, attention to detail, and genuine care truly set her apart. I couldn’t have asked for a better agent and would confidently recommend her to anyone looking to buy or sell a home.”
“Matt was very professional and personable. He was attentive to all my questions and took care of the "little things" diligently. He was also a great resource for the technicalities of the moving process. I highly recommend him to anyone looking to sell or buy.”
“She has patience and helped me navigate the new electronic world of real estate.”
“You recommended 2 agents, both of whom contacted me but Tyron did so within a few hours and we hit it off and he got the job. Thank you for the excellent recommendation!”
“It was a pleasure to deal with Louis in regards to the sale of my property.”
“Efficient and non-intrusive service. They recommended an agent, Craig Ackerman, who got us our dream home after only 3 weeks, 4 house-viewings, and one offer later. We'd gone through 3 ineffective agents over a 4 month period before this, so it was much appreciated!”
“Ms Hagley was referred to us by good friends. She understood what we wanted and came through with that. She guaranteed we’d be in contract no more than two weeks and we were in contract before the two weeks was up. It was a difficult decision for us to sale my grandparents’ place but I am soooo glad we did. I’m always throwing the name out there to people that are thinking of selling. I’m very grateful for the services that Cindi provided for us. I would highly recommend Cindi and her group because they stand by their word and commitment to you. Thank you again!!!”
“We just bought our first home. I had no idea where to find a realtor to work with. I'm so glad I found Agent Pronto. They put me in contact with Liliana who is amazing! I would highly recommend this service to anyone!”
