“Heather was wonderful from start to finish! She was very knowledgeable of the area and competing properties. She set realistic goals including the price that she could sell the home for. She staged the property wonderfully to maximize it's appeal. She was very systematic and level headed in contract negotiations. Bottom line is, we were so pleased that she got this property sold in January for 96% of the list price! Thanks Heather!”
“I worked with Andrew Mccatty in selling our home and buying our new home, and I would welcome his services again. He was prompt, prepared, organized, and quickly answered my texts or phone calls. He and his team seem to really know the area and are capable of quickly putting together and executing a plan.”
“Brittany was amazing! Initial meeting to fully executed lease (over asking price) in about a week! Will definitely work with Brittany again and highly recommend her for all your real estate needs.”
“Kim is knowledgeable about the market in our area and was always very responsive throughout the entire process.”
“John Campobasso was great to work with in selling our unit. He was professional, knowledgeable, and guided us through every step of the process. We really appreciated how upfront and straightforward he was. He always gave us honest feedback and clear expectations. He made the whole experience feel smooth and much less stressful than we anticipated. We’re so glad we worked with him and would definitely recommend his services to anyone looking to buy or sell.”
“Great agent - professional, communicative, and results driven. I would highly recommend Steven to anyone buying or selling a home.”
“Great to work with in all respects, from start to finish!”
“Working with Kim was absolutely fantastic! From the very beginning, she demonstrated professionalism, market expertise, and genuine care for my family's needs. My home needed several upgrades before listing, and Kim went above and beyond by helping me find reliable contractors and even helping manage the process to ensure everything was done on time and within budget. Thanks to her hard work, guidance, and excellent staging, my home received an offer on the very first day it was shown! Selling and moving can be intimidating, but Kim was like a fairy god-mother: always accessible and full of calming advice. If you’re looking for a realtor who truly goes the extra mile, I highly recommend Kimberly Thurm.”
“Dayana es muy profesional, conocedora del tema, honesta y excelente negociadora de los términos y del contrato para la compra de la casa. Nos sentimos muy complacidos y confiados durante todo el proceso. Definitivamente la recomendaría.”
“Katherine Rubis was outstanding in dealing with my needs. I was in Japan and did the entire process remotely. This was my first home purchase and she was very knowledgeable and made it very easy. She had all the support professionals (lawyers, insurance, and banking contacts) to make the entire process smooth and seamless. I would definately use her again and recommend her to anyone, especially if you are a first time homebuyer.”
“Thank you Tina it was a pleasure working with you”
“Nancy Silwa is an experienced realtor who knows her profession. She knows, and in fact lives in the area, where I was selling my house. This was a bonus as she really had a handle on the market. She walked with me every step of the way so that I understood the process. I was selling a home I had lived in for 43 years. Nancy understood the emotional impact of this decision and gently helped me stay focused on the task at hand: sell the house. She found the perfect buyers. A young couple who will make my house their home. Knowing this made selling my home a little easier. I would and indeed have recommended Nancy to others. She is simply THE BEST!”
“Paula helped us every step of the way when we purchased our first home. I would recommend her to everyone. She always made time to answer our questions and explain the process. She's simply the best!”
“I had an amazing experience working with Erick when purchasing my new home. From the very beginning, he took the time to understand exactly what I was looking for and offered valuable insights into the housing market. Erick was incredibly knowledgeable, patient, and responsive, answering all my questions and guiding me through every step of the process. The process of finding the perfect home can be overwhelming, but Erick made it seamless. He was always available to schedule viewings at my convenience, and when we found the right place, he worked tirelessly to ensure my offer was competitive and that all the paperwork was handled efficiently. Thanks to Erick, I now own a home that I absolutely love. I highly recommend him to anyone looking for a dedicated and professional real estate agent.”
