ZillowVERIFIEDMy husband and I had a wonderful experience working with Alyssa! We looked at houses over the course of a couple of years, and she was so helpful and responsive from start to finish. She answered our many questions, gave us honest feedback, and helped us become first-time home buyers. Alyssa is the best and we highly recommend her!

ZillowVERIFIEDWe found Alyssa as our realtor quite by accident. But is was very lucky y accident or us. We were very appreciative of Alyssas timely reponses to our emil and text questions. Her knowledg of the Philly area and of the market temperature was very helpful. Once we found the prooerty, beacause of our situation we needed a 3 week closing time! She made it happen. Buying a home is so stressful but Alyssa made the process smooth and quick. Her proffesional demeanor and calm confidence gave us confident in her getting the purchase done even with our time line crunch, and she did. We are very appreciative we accidentally came across Alyssa. We can not recomend Alyssa strongly enough.

ZillowVERIFIEDAlyssa helped us buy our first home and we could not recommend her more! She was so patient and helpful, working to explain every step of the process. When it came time to negotiations, she helped us through the process, recommended contractors, and advocated for us with the sellers. We will definitely be using her services in the future!

ZillowVERIFIEDFirst things firstaEUR| i am obsessed with my new home! I previously started committing to a home i did not aEURoeloveaEUR?. Alyssa could feel that this was not the aEURoeperfect homeaEUR? for me and recommended we keep looking.. and it was the best decision we ever made! Without her expertise, Id probably be miserable today. She was always there for us physically and more importantly, emotionally. She eased our nerves and made sure we felt comfortable with every next move. She communicated with us throughout the process and did weekly aEURoecheck-insaEUR? to make sure we were okay. Thank you Alyssa, its very rare to get the opportunity to work with someone who genuinely cares about you. I owe you dinner :) This wouldnt have been possible without you.

ZillowVERIFIEDAlyssa provided great assistance in securing our rental home. We first contacted Alyssa about buying a home, and she quickly pivoted to rental search with us. She was very available for showings during off hours and helped us find a great place. In addition, she gave us smart guidance when entering our lease agreement. I would work with Alyssa again for both rental and home buying pursuits in Philadelphia. She is well acquainted with the city and its neighborhoods.

ZillowVERIFIEDAlyssa was awesome with helping us with our first home purchase. We looked at home in several different neighborhoods and she was knowledgeable about it one. Her communication was so good, at one point she was on a family vacation, and yet was still incredibly communicative by checking in with us and even going as far as to set up showings with an assistant of hers. The settlement process did not feel stressful as she made sure we stayed on schedule, and took comfort in the fact that she was fighting for the best deal for us, and made sure that it was one we were comfortable going with. She also had great recommendations for people to work with when it came to home inspection and gave more recommendations for general contractors from the area that she trusts. All in all, my wife and I cannot recommend her enough, and look forward to working Alyssa again in the future!

ZillowVERIFIEDAlyssa was key in helping us buy our first home. She taught us a lot about the long, complicated process of home buying. Alyssa also helped us find our lender, so we really depended on Alyssa and she came through for us! We couldn?t be more happy. Thanks, Alyssa!

Review for Member: Alyssa Vargas
ZillowVERIFIEDAlyssa was a fantastic agent and we couldn?t be happier with how our home buying process turned out. As first time buyers, we didn?t exactly know all that the process would involve, and Alyssa was great at answering all of our questions and guiding us through the steps. She helped us view several homes and gave us honest insight into the market. She quickly put in offers on homes we were interested in and was great at staying in touch throughout the counteroffer phase and making sure we got a fair deal throughout the post-inspection process. I would definitely recommend Alyssa to anyone looking to purchase a home.

ZillowVERIFIEDAlyssa helped me from start to finish with buying my new construction home. She showed me the model home and from there we started our journey of building our perfect forever home. Alyssa always stayed in contact and worked efficiently and effectively to make sure the builder was doing everything we needed him to. Alyssa made it such a smooth process and we are so grateful!

ZillowVERIFIEDAlyssa was fantastic helping us with our first home purchase. We definitely were not as educated as we would have liked and Alyssa took great care of us, and in this CRAZY housing market, we were able to have a normal buying process thanks to her help. She was able to counter quickly and work with her sources to get us information that wasnt otherwise available to us. She helped us navigate all of the necessary steps after our offer was accepted, which were plentiful, but she laid everything out very clearly for us to understand and follow with key timing checkpoints.

ZillowVERIFIEDWe purchased a house this summer and relocated to a different city. As a first time buyer I was pretty nervous but Alyssa walked us through the process and answered all our questions. She was responsive, easy to reach, and was persistent in our negotiations to get us the best deal. Alyssa was a pleasure to work with.

Review for Member: Alyssa Vargas
ZillowVERIFIEDAlyssa was fantastic throughout a very stressful process. She got us in to look at 7-10 houses a few weekends in a row. And the house we ended up purchasing, she showed us before it went on the market. With the market being as tough as it is, that was so helpful. After being outbid on a few other houses, being able to get this one without a bidding war enabled us to purchase it. She then helped us each step of the way during a quick turnaround (30 days) leading up to closing. And even afterward, shes going to continue to assist by checking in on some projects being done on the house in between closing and us moving in.

ZillowVERIFIEDAlyssa went above and beyond to help us with the purchase of our first home. We toured the house and made an offer 30 minutes later and went under contract that night! It was a process she made smooth and easy, even with a difficult seller. She made this process enjoyable, quick, and easy! Thank you Alyssa for your time and hard work!

ZillowVERIFIEDShe was with me and my wife the whole way like she was holding our hands. We could always get in touch and get the info we needed. Everything was on time as planned because of her. When things got shaky, she got persistent and made results happen in our favor. If I could always buy houses, Id always use her.

ZillowVERIFIEDThis is the second investment property we purchased with Alyssa and she was once again wonderful to work with. She is prompt, communicates well, is easy to work with, and is able to navigate difficult situations/negotiations. We continue to appreciate her dedication to her clients and thorough approach to every aspect of the deal that spans sourcing properties, negotiating contracts, seeing deals through the finish line, and check-ins post sale. We look forward to working with her again in the future!

ZillowVERIFIEDAlyssa reached out to me and although I was hard to reach (due to being a first time mom) she was persistent and eventually got a hold of me. I am so glad she did because she listened to what my husband and I wanted in home. She found us places that not only had what my husband and I were looking for, but also stayed in our price range. She was very flexible with our schedule. She was the best realtor I have ever dealt with.

ZillowVERIFIEDI met Alyssa when she was helping my mom find a home to purchase in Philadelphia. I knew when I started looking for a house of my own, I had to use Alyssa. She was a pleasure to work with, always answered all of my questions, and worked very hard to find me my dream home. She found me the perfect house that wasnt even on the market yet and we were under contract before it ever hit the market. I cannot thank her enough and would recommend her to anyone looking for a home in the Philadelphia area.

ZillowVERIFIEDI highly recommend Alyssa if you are looking to find the perfect rental in Philadelphia (and Im sure she is wonderful for house buying as well based on our experience!). Due to the COVID-19 pandemic and stay-at-home orders, my partner and I were very anxious about how we would be able to find a suitable rental for our next apartment since we had already planned to move out of our place before the pandemic hit. I was so relieved when Alyssa reached out to me to offer her services. We have rented in Philly for over 10 years and had never thought to use an agent before because I associate them mostly with home buying, not renting. It was a great decision to work with Alyssa, as I cannot imagine how we would have juggled everything during this crazy time. Alyssa also helped to relieve our anxiety about not having enough time to find a place once some of the stay-at-home restrictions were lifted, and we were finally able to view places in person. She was so reassuring and knowledgeable which inspired confidence in us that all would be well and, indeed, it was! We found the perfect apartment.

ZillowVERIFIEDWonderful realtor and person. She was so helpful and caring with the process. I was new to Philly and had no idea where to look or what to look for and she found me a perfect home in the right area. She is more then a realtor she is a friend now. And has also found a new home for my daughter. I wouldn?t use anyone else.

Review for Member: Alyssa Vargas
ZillowVERIFIEDAlyssa was recommended to me by a mutual friend and I could not have been more satisfied with my experience. I was looking for an investment property to purchase with a business partner and Alyssa was able to find us exactly what we were looking for. The Pointe Breeze property checked all of our boxes and she was a great asset during the price negotiation, which resulted in us purchasing the property $30K below asking. Additionally, Alyssa was able to find us last minute financing after the company that I selected was unable to close. Within two weeks of closing on the property, Alyssa held an open house and found us ideal renters at $150 a month more than we original listed the property. She also drafted the lease agreement, collected the proof of income, credit check and got the signatures on our behalf. Alyssas patience, knowledge of the area, access to listings and contacts in the industry separate Alyssa from her peers.

ZillowVERIFIEDFrom the very beginning Alyssa went above and beyond to take the time to acclimate me to the Philadelphia housing market. I was in a bit of a time crunch to find a home and coupled with not being from the Philadelphia area, I was nervous that I would have to settle for something I might not love, but the opposite occurred. Upon touring just a few homes, she quickly adapted to my likes and dislikes and was able to make great recommendations to what might best fit my needs for the upcoming homes we would visit. In just one visit to Philly, Alyssa quickly and efficiently helped me narrow down an expansive list of homes that she prepared for me to view. Alyssa is extremely knowledgeable on not only all the best Philadelphia has to offer, but all the extra details that come with buying a home. She was always readily available to answer every question and made the buying experience as effortless as possible.

ZillowVERIFIEDAlyssa reached out to me while looking for apartments to rent with my friends. She was very quick to send me all the listings that fit my criteria and she was able to put together a day to go tour several apartments while working around our busy schedule. Once we found the one we wanted, Alyssa was very good about making sure we knew what documents we needed and she even was able to negotiate a good deal for us and got us in quickly while I was on a time crunch. Would highly recommend Alyssa.

ZillowVERIFIEDAlyssa helped my business partner and I source and close on a multi-family investment property in the Manayunk area. What initially impressed us was her quick response time, organization, and overall hustle which she maintained throughout the entire sales process. She was also extremely resourceful when it came to negotiating and getting various contractors into the property to provide estimates. What we also appreciated about Alyssa was that she stayed engaged even after the close, always willing to provide contacts or a helping hand where needed. Definitely would recommend!

Review for Member: Alyssa Vargas
ZillowVERIFIEDWhen I first met Alyssa Vargas we had a few days to decide whether to renew our apartment lease or not. If we didnt renew, we would only have 2 months to find, buy, and move into a new home in a sellers market with low inventory. Alyssa listened to our situation, budget, and home criteria then assure us that we would not go homeless. We decided not to renew our lease that day and are so glad didnt. Not sure how many agents are personally picking up their buyers and driving them around on Labor Day, but Alyssa did that for us. That holiday weekend we found and put an offer on the home of our dreams. The house had a verbal offer on it already, but because of Alyssas initiative and responsiveness with the sellers agent we found ourselves under contract the following week. Her communication throughout the whole process was on point. We experienced the most painless first time home buying process in history and it is many thanks to Alyssa for making it happen!

ZillowVERIFIEDAlyssa was referred to me by a friend because of her detailed knowledge of the Philadelphia market. After reviewing dozens of curated properties over several weeks, Alyssa recommended the perfect residence that matched my preferences and desired price. I could not be happier with how the process turned out. I highly recommend Alyssa to any professional moving to the area for the first time.

ZillowVERIFIEDWe had a great experience using Alyssa as our realtor. As renters, we didnt know we could use the services of a realtor for free. She made the process of moving to Philadelphia from a long distance easy. We could only be in the city to visit potential places for one day. In a span of three-ish hours we saw 7 + apartments. She was organized, thorough, and responsive to our needs and questions. Make your move to Philly easier and allow Alyssa to help you!

ZillowVERIFIEDMy husband and I would highly recommend using Alyssa as your realtor! We were first in contact with Alyssa when we started our home buying search, before we were even ready to buy. She reached out providing more information on a property and offered to help us with our search. We weren?t ready quite yet and she was not pushy at all and said to reach back out when once we were. When we began the home buying process many months later, Alyssa was our first call. As we were first time homebuyers, we had lots to learn. Since we both work full-time and get home in the later evening, she was always happy to talk at night by email, phone, or text. Alyssa was able to answer all of our questions and was backed by a strong team of realtors to consult when we came across new situations like the requirement of a renovation loan for one house. We visited over 40+ houses around Philadelphia (yep, not a typo) before we found our current house. Alyssa was not only incredibly patient and positive with us throughout the process, but we actually had a lot of fun along the way! When we found the final house, we entered a bidding war with three other people. Alyssa did a great job working with us through that stressful process to make sure we landed the house. Once our offer was accepted, she stayed on top of deadlines to make sure we made it to settlement with no issues. If you?re looking to buy a home and want to work with a fun, energetic, passionate, and dedicated realtor, Alyssa is the way to go!

ZillowVERIFIEDMy husband and I have been half-heartedly looking for houses for the past few years. Weve worked with a number of folks in the real estate world but never felt comfortable working with any of them which is why we never acted on a house. But early in 2018, we decided to try again and ended up with Alyssa. She quickly became part of the family and was wholly dedicated to finding us our perfect home. She listened to what we wanted (older home, NO open floor plan, something unique like us) and put all of her energy into finding houses that fit us rather than ones she thought we should like. Alyssa remembered things about us and applied it to her search - for example, my husband is an artist and Alyssa was always on the lookout for homes that had possible studio space. She was incredibly flexible with our crazy work schedules and made the whole process not only easy, but enjoyable. She even held my anxious and worried hand through some mortgage company nightmares and always took the time to reassure me that everything was going to be okay. I cant imagine a better person to work with and I give her 100% of the credit for us finding our perfect home! I will always be grateful to her for her hard work and personalized touches!

ZillowVERIFIEDI came into contact with Alyssa while in search for a 2 bedroom / 2 bathroom space in the Fishtown, Northern Liberties, and Old City. Alyssa compiled a list of potential places from which we selected a few to tour in the evening on weeknights. After the initial meeting and tours, I was impressed and felt confident we would be getting what we were looking for. She had an excellent feel for what would be the best locations for us to tour and easily eliminated places which saved us time and travel efforts. We checked out condos along the riverfront with beautiful views and incredible amenities as well as new construction apartments with wide open floor plans in NoLibs. After a couple weeks of searching and few a turn of events we settled up in Northern Liberties. Philadelphia is a city of neighborhoods: So Hood, So Good as they say, with different vibes and scenes, all of which Alyssa was privy to. Overall I couldnt have been more impressed with my interaction with her, and fully endorse her real estate services.

ZillowVERIFIEDAlyssa reached out to me while I was looking for apartment rentals around Zillow/Craigslist. I told her the necessities I needed and the price range I could afford and she sent me several links to apartments to look at. I visited Philadelphia for two days before I moved up there and she drove my wife and I around the city showing us different neighborhoods and told us what to expect from the respective neighborhoods of Center City and University City. After we left Philly, I told her of an apartment that was close to my future work place and seemed nice. She scheduled a showing and FaceTimed me which was great since I was out of town and wouldnt be able to see my apartment until I moved in! After that, I settled on the apartment and I like it a lot! Got everything I needed with the help of Alyssa. Nothing more I could ask for! Thanks!

ZillowVERIFIEDmy husband and i just purchased our first home, and we started out with no agent. we requested a viewing and randomly got Alyssas contact info, and i cant imagine navigating this process without her. i sent her a list of 17 homes we wanted to see, within a week she had scheduled a full day viewing 13 of them (based on availability), and we have found a home, and closed on time, in a little under 2 months. she has been friendly, she has gone to bat for us multiple times, and i truly believe she has had nothing but our familys best interest in mind the entire time. i will be singing her praises to anyone looking to rent or own in philly, she will dedicate herself 100% to making it happen for her clients. so happy she was part of our home buying experience!
