ZillowVERIFIEDAlly did an amazing job selling our home long-distance. She handled all the needed staging, inspections, permits, and last minute contractors smoothly while always keeping me well informed. Even after a big rainstorm, Ally stopped by to check on the house to ensure everything was okay! She was responsive, dedicated, and a true professional throughout the entire process! I highly recommend Ally and her entire team to anyone wanting to sell their home.

ZillowVERIFIEDAlly did a great job as my realtor. I was away in Asia and she took care of everything from start to finish. She was really on top of things. She took charge, didn't hesitate to step up, and showed me how good she is at her job. I was especially impressed when she personally handled the last-minute installation of smoke detectors just to help me pass the inspection. That really showed how committed she is to making sure everything gets done properly and on time. Ally managed everything so well and kept the process moving without making me feel stressed or worried. She was very indeed responsive, and someone you can count on throughout the process. I highly recommend Ally to anyone looking for a realtor! She really goes beyond and above for her clients.

ZillowVERIFIEDAlly was incredible to partner with on the journey to sell my home. She listened, asked the right questions and provided sound and empathic advice. Ally rolled up her sleeves and actually helped me. I was amazed. Ally took on more responsibilities than I ever expected. She has my highest recommendation.

ZillowVERIFIEDAlly as our lead broker was with us every step of the way- we relied on all of her input and support - she was very upbeat, and even during a challenging experience of selling a home while owning another new one, Ally kept her cool and was actually fun to work with. Her team showed up literally and figuratively at all times when we needed them the most. This highly responsive, cohesive team approach worked for us. It is a robust team, and our primary contacts were Ally Donoghue and Sangeeta Shah Dutta who were guided by the strong leadership of Laura Gill. They all excelled in their work ethic and skills. We trusted them, and we were grateful for their capable advice and support. THANK YOU to Laura's team and specifically to Ally and San!

ZillowVERIFIEDAlly (The Listing Manager) sold 3 of our homes. We chose her each time because she sells them fast and at excellent prices. Ally and the Gill Group have the experience and resources to market your home much more effectively over other plain-Jane and ordinary agents.

ZillowVERIFIEDWe can?t recommend Ally and the Gill Group highly enough! From the very first meeting, Ally?s warm smile and sense of humor put us at ease, making the whole process of selling our home feel less daunting. Selling a home can be stressful, but Ally?s expertise and attention to detail made it so much easier. Her suggestions were always spot-on, and the resources she provided?such as a talented carpenter, skilled painters, and an excellent stager?were invaluable in getting our home ready for sale. We were thrilled with the results. What truly set Ally apart was her exceptional responsiveness and unwavering support. She was always there to answer our questions, ease our concerns, and offer advice with patience and professionalism. If you want someone who combines expertise with a genuine, friendly approach, Ally is the person you need!

ZillowVERIFIEDWorking with the Gill Group and especially Ally Donohue was a very positive experience. Laura Gill came highly recommended and after our first meeting with Laura and Ally we were confident that they were the right company and team to assist us in selling our family home of 25 years. We naturally were nervous about listing our home but Ally was there every step of the way. I honestly dont think I could have gotten through the process without her guidance and support. Thank you Gill Group and Ally Donohue.

From our initial discussions regarding selling strategy/pricing and preparation of the house for photography to the listing, showing, and ultimate sale of our home she made it happen in just six days! Ally was a true professional; continually updating us throughout the process and quickly answering any questions that arose. Her knowledge and patience were impeccable.

ZillowVERIFIEDAllys professionalism, expertise, and genuine care for us were evident from our very first meeting. She took the time to listen attentively to our concerns, ensuring that every step we took was tailored to what was best for us and being transparent throughout the entire process. Ally was there every step of the way, providing guidance and support that exceeded all expectations. What truly sets Ally apart is her unwavering dedication. She was always available to answer any questions we had, no matter how big or small, and her responsiveness was truly remarkable. Her attention to detail and commitment to excellence ensured that every aspect of the buying process was smooth and stress-free. Thanks to Allys expertise and guidance, I not only bought the perfect home in Glen Rock but I also sold that same home for a fantastic price after renovating it extensively. I couldnt be happier with the outcome, and I have Ally to thank for making it all possible. If youre in the market for a realtor who truly cares about your needs and goes above and beyond to exceed your expectations, look no further than Ally Donoghue. Shes not just a realtor; shes a true partner in your real estate journey. Thank you, Ally, for everything!

Review for Member: Ally Donoghue
ZillowVERIFIEDMy wife and I listed our house with Ally after living in it for 40 years. What would have been an overwhelming experience was made so smooth due to the work of Ally and her team. From suggestions on decluttering, strategy on staging and pricing and timing of when to go to market, Ally was spot on and made our lives so much easier. Not to mention that we had already moved out of the area so we were able to rely on Ally and her team to handle any hurdles that came up. In less than a week we ended up with multiple offers and sold the house over asking. If you are considering selling your house, you would be making a mistake not to consider using Ally.

ZillowVERIFIEDYou need to work with Ally to guide you through the home buying (or selling) process! There are so many reasons why you should work with Ally, but it really all comes down to her honesty. We were first time home buyers and needed a lot of hand holding and guidance. She never pressured us into something that was not the right fit and always gave us sound advice. We knew we could trust her and she was so relatable. When looking to buy a house, you need to trust your realtor! It?s most likely the biggest purchase of your life. She gets the market and really works to understands the unique position of each of her clients. I can?t recommend Ally enough. You won?t regret working with her!

ZillowVERIFIED10/10 recommend Ally and the Gill Group. She was patient, knowledgeable and so responsive and took immediate action. No follow up needed! She is 100% in your corner and will guide you through what would normally be a very emotionally taxing thing. With Ally and the Gill group the concerns are removed because you know they are on it.

ZillowVERIFIEDAlly made the selling of our home a very easy process. From our first meeting, to the day of our closing, she communicated every step that would happen and followed through with detailed explanations. Her stagers came in and effortlessly transformed our home into an inviting showpiece! Ally's comprehensive knowledge of the Allendale, NJ selling market was spot on. She marketed and priced the home in a way that highlighted its desirability and guaranteed many showings. As each offer came through, she clearly communicated the nuances of each and helped us achieve the absolute best deal. I would highly recommend Ally to anyone looking to hire a realtor.

ZillowVERIFIEDWe had a great experience working with Ally in selling our home! She helped us through each step of the process. Ally gave us great advice and insights while we were prepping our home - saving us time and money, and she even helped with paint colors. She is very knowledgeable and the house was priced right. The Gill Group does a wonderful job marketing the listing and we were very impressed with how they ran the open house and managed the showings. Their marketing helped bring in a ton of interest in our house and we sold within days, well over the listing price. Ally was easy to work with and we appreciated her sound advice, encouragement and professionalism. We highly recommend her!

ZillowVERIFIEDHow can I describe the professional person Ally has been thru this difficult transition. Selling ourhome of 24 years was stressful to say the least. As Someone who is in sales and owns a business I know we must have been daunting to work with. Her patience with us while aggressively promoting our best interest to the buyers won our hearts. She is well worth your time to speak with if you are planning to buy or sell like us. Everyone in her team has earn our respect. Everyone in my family planning on any real estate transaction will be calling Ally for sure.

ZillowVERIFIEDWe worked with Ally to find a new home, as well as sell our previous home. Not only is Ally patient, as it took us about three years to find the perfect place, she took the time to get to know us and what we really wanted in a home. She didnt push us into putting offers on houses she knew we didnt love. When we finally found the one, she helped us negotiate and led us through every step of the process. As for selling our house, she took us through the steps of staging the house and pricing it using her detailed knowledge of comps in the area. I would recommend Ally for anyone looking to buy or sell a home in Bergen county.

ZillowVERIFIEDAlly was awesome to work with. She was very knowledgeable, accommodating, well-spoken and easy to work with. We were very nervous about selling our home and slightly unsure about how to go about it. She guided us through the entire process and provided excellent suggestions that really boost the buyer interest in the home. She provided helpful tips on what we should do and what does not need to be done to prepare our home for the viewing. She took time to do the research for comparable homes and provided us with recommendation that was more realistic compared to our expectation. In the end, everything worked out great. We are so happy to have worked with Ally.

ZillowVERIFIEDAlly was very patient with us in our home search, and we are thrilled to have closed on a home with all of our "must have" criteria. She was very responsive throughout the process, and proactive with sending us listings that would suit what we were looking for in a house & neighborhood. Ally was also knowledgeable about the local neighborhood in the several towns we considered throughout our search, which helped us decide on the best town for our family.

ZillowVERIFIEDAlly was phenomenal! She was informative, thorough and super helpful. We bought a place sight unseen because we trusted her and her understanding of what we wanted wholeheartedly. Ally took the time to get to know us, our preferences and our comfortable price range - never trying to push us into something that didnt fit. Her combination of patience and responsiveness was perfect for us as first time home buyers. We couldnt recommend her more highly!

ZillowVERIFIEDAlly is an absolute star! She first helped us look for homes to buy in early 2020. We then shifted quickly in March 2020 to look for a rental, which she rapidly found for us, despite all businesses basically being shut down. She then was our partner in our home buying search. Ultimately, we have purchased our absolute dream Home! Working with Ally is seamless. She is incredibly knowledgeable, diligent, friendly, honest, flexible, responsive and insightful. Any homebuyer would be so fortunate to have Ally on their side!

ZillowVERIFIEDWe would have been lost without Ally! She is incredibly knowledgable, patient, understanding, and sharp. What I love most about her though is her confidence- she helped us navigate these anxious home-buying times with ease. Never once did I doubt her advice (and I am highly indecisive!). Put your trust in Ally and you will be in the best hands!!! Ps she happens to also be the kindest - time spent with her was truly a delight. Thank you Ally!!!

ZillowVERIFIEDAlly is the ultimate agent and if you're considering buying a house or making a change to your current representation, then look no further. Ally helped us purchase our forever home in just a few months of working together (which is tough in this market). When we had questions, she either knew or found the answers (but usually knew), and she was instrumental in helping us get to the closing table. Ally has been incredible even after the close, helping connect us to different businesses we'll need to care for our home. You'll be very happy working with Ally and we can't recommend her enough.

ZillowVERIFIEDThis is our second time working with Ally. A few years ago, she helped us find our first starter home and this time, she helped us purchase a larger home in a wonderful area while also selling our previous home simultaneously. Additionally, she has helped our family members find homes as well. Once again, Ally exceeded our expectations and made everything easy! She is genuine and quick to respond with answers to our questions and assist us whenever we needed guidance. She is a wonderful listener and truly understood what we were looking for in a home. She has exceptional knowledge of buying and selling homes, and we felt supported in every step of the process. Thank you, Ally for helping us sell our home and also for finding a wonderful home to create new memories with our family!

ZillowVERIFIEDWorking with Ally to buy our first home was an incredible experience! Between relocating from California and moving to a new area we had never lived, she made the whole process so easy and stress-free! She is extremely knowledgeable about the area and was able to help us find the best fit in Bergen County based on what we were looking for (and the best bagels!). She was able to get us under contract within two weeks of starting our search and supported us through every step of the process. We can't say enough good things about Ally and encourage anyone looking for a home in the area to work with her.

ZillowVERIFIEDOur experience working with Ally was an absolute pleasure. We met over a year ago when we had called in on one of her teams listings. By the time we had called, the home was already long gone. At that point, we began our search and immediately found a connection with Ally. She asked all the right questions and was able to share a lot of information on the town we were interested in. Ally showed us many homes along the way and stayed patient with us throughout as we changed focus during our search. Originally when we began, we were looking in Allendale only but decided to expand into some of the other surrounding towns. Good thing we did, as we found the perfect home for our family in Saddle River! We would highly recommend working with Ally. She was extremely professional, responsible and always had our best interest in mind, even when we encountered difficult situations. We will definitely recommend her and her team to anyone looking for a home in Bergen County!

ZillowVERIFIEDAlly was extremely helpful and guided us through the whole home buying process really well. She was available through text or email pretty much 24/7; she was the person we texted when we had any concerns or internal panic regarding the home buying process. If we ever need any real estate help we would definitely go to her again in the future.
