“As first-time home buyers navigating a competitive market, we truly could not have purchased the home we wanted without Jill Fitzpatrick. Jill was incredibly helpful and responsive from day one, really listening to our needs and wants and then tailoring experienced advice and next steps accordingly. We were able to put in a winning offer which included a quick closing timeline only with the help of Jill guiding us through each step of the process. We can't recommend Jill enough!”

“While I was looking for my condo, I had several criteria in mind: something below market budget, close to the city, with the right number of bedrooms and a good layout. At the time, the market was ridiculous. I felt grateful and reassured to have Eric as my real estate agent because he was very patient, knowledgeable about the process, responsive, and accessible. I never felt pressured by him to purchase something that wasn’t right for me. Overall, I have him to thank for the condo I have today. I truly enjoyed working with him and would highly recommend him to my friends and family.”
“Friendly helpful all the way to the end and beyond. Made everything easy to understand answered all my questions within a few minutes of asking if she didn't have the answers, she got them for me”

“Sarah is a warm, attentive, and caring individual. She is a seasoned professional and was extremely helpful in guiding and advising on best approaches and strategy to sell my property. It was sold within one week and it is fantastic. One of the best experiences in my dealings with the real estate. Thumbs up for Sarah. I'll definitely hire her again.”
“Michelle Soucy did a fantastic job of locating a home based on my criteria, and satisfied or exceeded my request. She was prompt and knowledgeable at each step of the process in keeping me informed and educated on an out-of-state purchase. She also lined up skilled trades help as needed and took care of the associated details. I highly recommend Michelle to handle your next real estate transaction.”
“Rosa stepped in when we were not getting anywhere in finding a suits property. Within 72 hours Rosa had several viewings booked and we had 2 offers in place. Ultimately she brokered a great deal on the perfect place to purchase. She continued to work with us throughout the process and closing. She even helped communicate with the previous agents when we needed something fixing. She is an excellent agent and great ambassador for Real Satisfied.”
“Great real estate experience with Charlotte. I recently had the pleasure of working with Charlotte as my realtor, and I cannot express how grateful I am for her outstanding service throughout the entire home buying process. From our initial meeting to the closing day, Charlotte demonstrated a level of professionalism, expertise, and dedication that greatly met my expectations. One of Charlotte's standout qualities is her extensive knowledge of the local real estate market. She took the time to understand my preferences and priorities, providing valuable insights into neighborhoods, property values, and future market trends. Her expertise not only streamlined the decision-making process but also ensured that I made informed choices.”

“I can't thank John Dean enough for handing the sale of my home. John's knowledge of the industry and the area was exceptional. He kept me informed of all the issues and guided me with decisions that had to be made. He offered to make several trips to the house to meet and coordinate the inspections and other people that assisted me with the move. Not being available to make it to the property for various reasons being the distance and caring for a disabled husband, John saved me from having to be there. John was there to manage everything for me. If you need a professional agent, look no further than John Dean.”

The Columbia gas problem affect homes in a huge area.The property for a few months was essential not able to be sold because of the Columbia Gas issue. During this time Chris did his best to show, and the sell the property. Eventual after Columbia Gas finally fixed all the gas lines that were affected Chris was then able to find the buyer for this property. Took months, but Chris never gave up, or showed any disinterest. I plan to work with him in the near future.”

I would highly recommend Kerry Lapiana and Prestige Homes to friends, family and colleagues.”
