This was our first time selling a home. We decided to interview a few agents before signing a listing agreement. Once we met April, we knew we had found the Realtor who would be selling our home of 25 years. She is a true professional who took the the time to get to know us and the home she would be selling. She recognized the value of all we had put into the home and pointed out all the features in a friendly and professional manner to all who showed interest. We were anxious sellers facing the daunting task of downsizing and clearing out 25 years of belongings . However, April helped guide us though with her knowledge and experience and made the whole process so much less intimidating. We consider April one of the most knowledgeable and professional Realtors we had ever met. The proof is in the details: 15 showings in 12 days, 5 offers, 2 above listing price - under contract in 15 days from listing! Call her, you will be as impressed with her as we are!
From the beginning to the end April treated us like family & for that we will always consider her to be one. She never hesitated to meet our needs. Moreover, she is kind, caring, thoughtful, knowledgeable & a consummate professional. April provided outstanding customer service throughout the process of selling both my investment & my mothers primary home. We truly couldn?t have asked for a better experience ! If we, ever sell our primary home, we will not use any one else other than April Hughes to represent us, Thank you April !!
April both sold our former home and found us our dream home in an extremely competitive market. Our old home was sold quickly for way over asking. She stayed strong during the bidding process of our new home resulting in us getting the home. Throughout the entire home selling and buying process from start to finish her level of communication was second to none. I highly recommend April for both selling and buying services.
April was incredible, very knowledgeable and responsive. She was at the house till after 10pm staging and helping to clean and make the house presentable. Really went above and beyond. I consider her a friend and not just a realtor now.
We worked with April on and off for 5 years I think She was always ready, willing, and able to help us and often had a different perspective than we did . That was very helpful She never lost her enthusiasm , and was a pleasure to work with.Even after the sale has helped us out with references for neighborhood contractors and other things I couldnt have asked for a better experience, and really consider her the best!
Working with April was a great experience.She walked me through the entire process which made it easy because I never sold a house before.The journey I took was laid out clear and concise.If you are looking for a person with heart,compassion,and integrity April is the perfect real estate agent for you!! I will be forever grateful for what she did for me........
We purchased w/ April twice and sold with her once! She is a great communicator and acts with great integrity. I will not work with anyone else! We first met April a decade ago after meeting easily three dozen other agents. She was hosting an open house in a home we eventually purchased. Her professionalism throughout the process was unparalleled. Years later we were on the fence about selling the home and moving nearby. We were ready to just stay put when she was able to get us a showing for our new home. She put the safety of our young family first when showing us homes and more importantly, when showing our former home! With her expertise we were able to secure purchase of our 2nd forever home and enter a contract to sell our first home in less than 20 days. She was present for every showing and always the same bright super professional that embodies who she is, whether it was the first showing of the day or 20th!
April is a diamond in the rough. She is the ultimate professional in real estate, so much so that we have worked with her on our last three transactions. We have also recommended her multiple times to our pickiest of friends and family :) and continue to do so! April prides herself on personal attention to each of her clients so much so often times it feels as if you are her one and only priority.
Weve been working with April since our first home purchase, sale of that home and now through our second purchase. For our first purchase she was great at holding our hands and patient answering all of our questions. For our second purchase in one of the craziest housing markets ever, shes fiercely advocated for us though nearly a dozen offers. We credit her with delivering our dream home and Im confident it wouldnt have happened without her.

Making the decision of selling your long time home and the attendant anxiety of beginning to pack all your long term possessions is already an emotional minefield. The added stress of finding a broker you feel comfortable and confident in can be the proverbial feather on the camels back as you wade into the uncertainty of moving on. We had interviewed a few brokers and were debating who had the better presentation and approach when an old family friend suggested that we try April Hughes Kaufman. After we had our initial interview with April my wife and I were both convinced before she left that we would choose her. We both felt completely at ease with her and, considering the emotional rollercoaster we had put into motion, felt confident that as crazy as the rest of this move may become, we were in very good and capable hands. Every aspect of the selling process, from the rudimentary home market analysis to staging suggestions right down to fluffing pillows if necessary, were handled with aplomb. Anything that would show our humble home in the best light April took on with a sunny disposition and professionalism. Even the occasional bump in the road did not faze her. Quite frankly, we were so comfortable with her expertise and advise, it was as if we had known each other for ages. It must be kept in mind that she managed this all while being extremely careful during the Covid virus crisis aEUR" keeping us, our home and prospective buyers safe. However, despite the masks, her smile was always evident. We could not have asked for anything more from a real estate broker. But, perhaps best of all, there was another very lasting bonus. For as the process of selling our home concluded and the time to move drew closer we realized, in addition to this life changing transaction, there was a wonderful blessing aEUR" we now have a lifelong friend.We will always be grateful to you April for guiding us through this process and being there for us. Thanks so much, Ro and Peter Brumby
We met April 8 years ago at an open house. She was showing a home we opted not to pursue, but we asked if she would help us find a house in that area or where we were currently living. She was more than happy to join us on both sides of the island.We spent a few weeks and we found our home of 8 years in Long Beach with her help. I told her I didn't know if it would be our forever home, so we'd talk again when it was time for her to sell it for us.Fast forward to 8 years and I didn't even think about calling someone else to help us make our next move. We started with looking around in Northport again and as we found things that sparked our interest, we figured it was time to put our house on the market. We worked out a price that we thought would be best for both sides and put it on the market. In 15 minutes we had offers sight un-seen almost at full list. We ended up in a big bidding war and sold for $43,000 over our list price. She was so meticulous in deciding the best course of action, whose offer was the strongest and why. I couldn't imagine going through it with someone else. Then the game was on to find our new home. She was able to get us into homes in no time to look and compare and we found a few that we loved, but with the same wild market we were having the same bidding wars on homes we were looking to purchase. Again, she was there to help guide us to make good decisions based on the whole picture. We were lucky enough to find a fantastic home to start the next fun time in our lives with our daughter and 2 dogs in Northport village!2 purchases and 1 sale and I couldn't imagine having worked with anyone else through it all.
My brother and I interviewed several agents before deciding on April and her partner Debra. As we were acting on behalf of our Mother to sell her home of 40 years, it was important that we make the right decision. April was definitely the right decision. She came in with a positive attitude right from the start. Although the home needed updates she clearly saw the love and maintenance my mother put into the home and the potential the home could provide to the right buyer. April's guidance and expertise in staging the home with the accent on the positive features of the home was critical and truly appreciated. The photographer she utilized captured the home beautifully and the virtual tour and commentary that April provided really drew in the views. The home was listed and under contract within 10 days with multiple offers and sold above the asking price. This was no small feat considering we put the house on the market at the beginnning of the 'closing' of NY due to COVID 19 restrictions. We were afraid that the house might sit on the market, but all of the work that April put into the listing worked perfectly. In addition, April was always available to answer questions and kept the positive energy flowing which I know all led to the successful sale of my mother's home. I highly recommend April and would refer her unconditionally! Thank you April for your expertise!
April is awesome! She knows the areas and is very thorough, helpful and find good comps. She helped find the perfect house! She also suggested not to look out houses because she knew they wouldn?t be good for us based on our requirements. Thanks April!!

As first time home buyers, April made the experience a very pleasant one! Her knowledge of the areas that we were looking in was very helpful, there wasn't one question that she couldn't answer for us. She always took the time to makesure that what she was showing us was in our budget and checked off most of our boxes. Even after we went into contract on our home, she was only ever a phone call or text away if we needed her. I would highly recommend working with April if you are on the hunt for a new home in Long Island!
We had a great experience with April from beginning to end.April gave us great advice on staging (she even brought some of her own decorations), pricing and negotiating.We sold the house while we were moving to Denver, so we knew there would be a period of time we would be out of state before the house closed.The house sold within the first week for more than asking price.During the closing process there were a number of title issues and of course the impact of COVID-19!April also works very closely with her associate Debbie. When one was busy, the other one was there to take up the slack.April and Debbie were there for us every step of the way and often took a leadership position in problem solving. The house closed on time and both the buyer and seller were happy!If you get the opportunity to work with April and listen to her recommendations, you can also expect a wonderful experience.Thank You April!SincerelyJeff and Mary Ellen
We were lucky to have stumbled upon April. She went above and beyond of what is expected of a realtor. Shes a wonderful, pleasant and caring person that also performs her job better than most realtors we have dealt with. If I ever need to buy or sell a home again, u can bet Ill be caller her.
April was awesome to work with on both the sale of our existing home and the purchase of our new home. When it came to open houses or showings, April always made herself available. Not only available but also brought her own furniture and staging props to make our house more enticing. I have two dogs, April would take them out, remove their beds from the floor and hide them before the showing. She would hide the water bowls and food bowls and then put it all back when the showing was done. If i called on the phone, April picked up. No chasing , no wondering what is going on, you are always in the loop with April. When it came to buying my new house, April made sure we were on every viable property the minute it hit the market. Again, she made herself available at my convenience to make sure i saw the house and if she felt it wasn't the right house for my family, she told us. Not once did April push a house on us or make me feel that she was just trying to make a sale. You can trust the April has your best interest at heart, if it's not right for you she respects that. If you don't at least interview April and give her a chance to win you over, well all i can say is that you will be sooooo sorry in the long run. Call April or call nobody!!
April was definitely the best realtor I have had the pleasure of working with. She was extremely diligent in every aspect of selling my home. It was evident she cared about the process, and went above the normal duties to get my home sold. If youre looking to work with someone that has your best interest in mind, look no further. Would highly recommend!

April was an absolute pleasure to work with! She went above and beyond trying to help us find the perfect home. We met with a few other agents before we met her who showed us one house and then we never heard from them again. We immediately loved Aprils energy and honestly as soon as we met her. Less than 2 hours after showing us the first house, she was sending us listings that might work for us. We needed a house that would work well for us and would also have a nice ground floor section for my father to live in. With him being a disabled veteran, he needs a place that is easily accessible for him. It proved to be quite difficult to find! April worked so hard sending us multiple listings a day and working around my late work schedule to look at a multitude of different houses. After 6 months of looking we finally found the perfect home and we couldnt have done it without Aprils hardwork and dedication to us. She was genuinely so excited for us and made our house hunting experience so much easier and pleasant.

April was outstanding from the first moment we met her. She understood us, our home, and our needs. We listened to her and we had a buyer right away. Two and a half months later, we closed! Because we no longer lived in the area, we needed April's contacts for work that needed to be done and they were all terrific. She was kind, available, professional, and extremely knowledgeable. I couldn't have asked for a better person to help us!
April was amazing to work with. When we first started our house buying process, my husband and I were not certain that we wanted to work with a broker. Through a chance interaction, April agreed to show us a few houses that we were interested in. She was great about asking the right questions when we met with the sellers, bringing certain things to our attention, all while encouraging us to do what felt right and not rush into anything. Once we put our offer in, she was extremely helpful in letting us know what next steps were, what we needed to prioritize, etc. We love our new home and highly recommend April!
April Hughes Kaufman has helped us sell our house (above list price) and has helped us buy a home. She is easy to talk to, helped us stage our house, and has helped us get repairman when needed. When she sells homes, she makes sure only qualified people get to see your home and they need to make an appointment with her. I was very satisfied with April Hughes Kaufman and I am sure you will be too!
If you need a realtor on Long Island April Hughes Kaufman is your woman! She sold my grandmothers home in Uniondale, this one in East Meadow, my buyers home in NHP and sold me my new one in Fort Salonga. All quickly and she treats the homes as if they were hers. I really cant thank her enough.
April was amazing. She was a warrior. Never got tired, never stopped.She was the best part of our buying experience.Best Agent We've ever met.April always had our back.
April was very helpful with our year-long search for a house that meets our needs. She never tired of finding new possibilities and was very professional and quick in arranging viewings until we found the house that was just right for us. April also assisted us in finding excellent professionals to complete our inspections and our closing.
April is the best! My wife and I shopped for our first home and she went above and beyond to help us find the right one. We settled on a nice home in a great area for a great price. I highly recommend her and look forward to doing business again with her.
Recently April helped us obtain a great price for the home we sold and also helped us with the purchase of our current home. April has been our realtor for prior home purchases as well and we recommend her to everyone! Her joy makes home buying very enjoyable, she saved us lots of money by negotiation well, and was always highly courteous, prompt, and friendly. We now regard her as a dear friend of our family and part of our team. April very much enjoys her important role as a realtor and what it means for a family. April makes the home buying journey very enjoyable. She knows the Long Island market very well and all the details of real estate and home buying.
April was our agent for the sale of a home in Northport and the purchase of another in East Northport. She was efficient and creative in her dealings with us. She marketed our Northport home widely and produced a wide array of potential buyers. She managed to find a large number of properties of interest to us and made it possible of us to sell a home and buy a new home in short order and with a minimum of disruptions. She is a pleasant and easy person to work with.

As a contractor, work ethics are paramount. While creating my criteria to find the type of house, location and price range I desired, I met other realtors who said that there are no houses in Suffolk County filling those requests. Then I met April who worked long hard hours and made my search an unforgettable journey. She found so many houses for me to view and review. She spent extra time making sure we got to see as many houses we could so that my final decision is the perfect fit for me. She took the stress out of the process and created an interesting and memorable journey. When we found the perfect house, she followed through with care and concern for "my" benefit, as well as the sellers. She not only has great work ethics, her values, demeanor and ability in her services exceeded my expectations. I couldn't be more pleased and excited with the house we found and I have April and her tenacity to thank for that. Thank you so much April. You will always be a part of my house and my home.
Simply the best, perfect in every way! April was wonderful to work with. Always understanding, caring, very professional, prompt, patient, friendly, welcoming, and so much more. We knew immediately that we wanted to work with her and will recommend her to everyone. Thank you April!
As with any profession there are good realtors, exceptional realtors.....and then there is April Hughes Kaufman. There are not enough words to describe how truly talented this amazing woman is at what she does. Selling houses is not just her career, it's her passion. She puts her heart and soul into every aspect of the process. After 43 years of living in our house in Huntington, we decided it was time to move south. I did a lot of research on realtors and it was because of the Zillow reviews that we were led to call April. As I read perfect review after perfect review I wondered if anyone could really be that special. In my opinion, April Hughes Kaufman is the nicest person I have ever been blessed to meet. April put her many talents to use for us. She staged our home and took amazing photographs. She held our hands when we were emotional. She even offered to make chicken soup when we were sick. She took time and explained every step along the way. In the end, it took her ONE WEEK to sell our house for a higher than list price. For one month April Hughes Kaufman was our realtor......but for the rest of our lives she will be our friend. She truly is the BEST!
Our experience with April as our real estate agent was exceptional, and we would highly recommend her to anyone looking for a pleasant home buying or selling experience.We were extremely picky about what kind of home we wanted. April was our real estate agent twice, assisting us in purchasing two homes. April acted as our own personal filter, sending Us homes to our email fitting the kind of house we wanted. We didn't have to spend hours searching because April did it for us. She is actually the one who found the home we ended up purchasing. The home buying process is not an easy one, and being it was our first time, we did not know much about what to do and when. Lucky for us, April is an expert when it comes to next steps, who to contact, and the timeline. She was very knowledgeable and did all the thinking for us. She assisted with setting up appointments, making sure we had everything on our checklist done, and referred us to a great lawyer. She was happy to refer us to contractors, inspectors and provided us with all the phone numbers and contact information we needed. Anything we ever needed, April was more than happy to help us. Not only is April competent and wonderful at her job, but she is extremely kind and cares about her clients. She will work long hours into the night to find the perfect home for you, talk to you when you become stressed, and help you out when things get overwhelming. She knows her work, and doesn't stop until she gets results. I highly recommend April to anyone looking for a positive home buying experience.

She's not the first realtor I've ever worked with but now she is the only realtor I will ever work with again!

April was a HUGE help in our home buying process from beginning to the very end!At first we weren't even sure what we wanted but a few conversations about our lifestyle and ideas and she was able to narrow down what we had in mind!She helped set us up with our Mortgage broker and our lawyer and they were both awesome.She was an absolute pleasure and didn't mind coming out late at night for our final walkthrough of our home!she was so accommodating with our crazy work schedules and just made it happen!We couldn't be happier with having had her as our realtor!HIGHLY RECOMMENDED!!!
Ms. Kaufman knows her craft well. She provided us with a wealth of information. She worked very hard on our behalf. She was very patient and graceful. She always went out of her way to deliver our criteria in our home search. She went beyond her calling to coordinate and negotiate on our behalf. She simply this process much easier for us.
In every way, my dealings with April we're professional. She is honest, straightforward, knowledgeable and considerat. She always put my concerns first and went above and beyond to get my property to close. I trust her implicitly and would recommend her to anyone looking to buy or sell a home.
It is my absolute pleasure to Highly Recommend April as your realtor. As a consumer I know how important reviews can be, and I don't give them out very often. From the very beginning I knew she would be the right person for the job. We listed our home in Northport, NY, and she immediately went to work preparing and guiding us on being able to set the house to be show worthy and truly bring out the best features in our home. We were so impressed with her attention to detail and can't stress enough the importance in having a person with integrity & patience throughout the process. We got top dollar for our home in a tough marketplace, and were so grateful for her helping us throughout the process. You truly showed us the value of patience and trusting in a professional who serves people at the highest level. God Bless you April...Thank You sooo Much. ~Alex K

If you are looking for a reliable and professional realtor who is positive and gracious to work with, you should be speaking with April Hughes Kaufman. In one year, April supported my efforts and soothed my worries, in 3 real estate transactions. Following the loss of my mother we sold the family home, I purchased a downsized cottage, and sold my house. April knows the local marketplace inside and out; she can help you stage your home; she will answer you texts, emails and calls 7 days a week. She is tireless. I don't write a lot of recommendations but I am happy to write this one. All the best achieving your real estate goals.
April is an experienced agent, she gets a good feel for what her customers are looking for and doesn't waste time showing listings that don't coincide with the customers tastes. She'll go the extra mile to assist her customers in finding the appropriate home.
