ZillowVERIFIEDWhen I first contacted Barry, the conversation was easy. He listened, processed what I said and then the aEURoefunaEUR? started. An email was sent out to me with a few ccs in it. (Their domain is aEURoeteamPaleyaEUR?). I laughed at the aEURoerah rahaEUR? nature of the email and thought that they put on a good show.... Let me tell you.... its real. aEURoeTeam PaleyaEUR? is just that. Anything I needed outside of the purchase of my home, they were able to get for me. Their network of talented professionals is unlike anything Ive ever seen..... Mortgage broker? No problem. Appraisal? They know a guy. Home inspection? Hows tomorrow for you? Real estate lawyer? Done. Theyre a team of caring professionals who added a genuine personal touch to the whole experience. Buying a home is an interesting combination of stress, excitement, backaches, waiting, and then a mad dash to the finish line. Team Paley had my back and kept the whole process moving forward. Id write more but Ive got more unpacking to do.

ZillowVERIFIEDBarry, Lucas and Matt are a phenomenal team. At every point of the process I literally felt like I was their only client due to the speed of their communications back to me. The biggest complaint I can honestly say about most real estate agents is that you feel you get lost in the cracks and they do not communicate with you fast enough, at no point did I ever feel this with Barry and his team. I am also grateful that they never once wasted my time showing me houses that were out of my range. They listened to my priorities, sized up the situation successfully and only showed me homes that where feasible, and in the end they delivered. I was so happy with their service that I recommended them to my sister and they have since successfully sold her home as well as got her into a new home. I highly recommend using Barry and his team for your real estate needs you will not be disappointed with their service

ZillowVERIFIEDBarry and his team were incredible. We went through a few agents before we found him and it was obvious early on he was a cut above the competition. Hes knowledgeable and patient. I really felt like he cared more abt finding us the right home then getting a commission. Somehow he worked to get the house of our dreams even after we thought it wasnt possible. Barry helped us through every step and adapted quickly and whole heartedly when circumstances changed. I only rated 4 stars for negotiation b/c we didnt ask him to negotiate the price down. He did go above and beyond to get us the opportunity to secure the home which is what was most important to us! Barry is a joy to be around. Its like looking for a home w your favorite uncle. Hes a gentleman through and through. I would recommend him to anyone and feel comfortable knowing theyre working w the best.

ZillowVERIFIEDBarry did a terrific job helping us find our home. He was referred through a family member and their recommendation didnt disappoint. He spent countless hours emailing us homes, showing us listings in person and going over pros and cons of each house. As first time home buyers he really educated us on the market and all the steps involved in buying a home!

ZillowVERIFIEDBarry and his son, Lucas, were so helpful throughout the entire process of purchasing our home. As first-time home buyers, they helped us navigate the entire process. Barry had trusted experts for answers to every question we had- from tax grievance questions to mortgage applications, and even contractors, and every other industry professional we encountered along the way who was not directly referred by Barry already seemed to know him and love working with him. Barry and Lucas are extremely experienced, knowledgeable, and friendly. They are a pleasure to work with. We highly recommend them both.

ZillowVERIFIEDAs a first time home buyer not knowing how to go about a purchase. I contacted Barry and Luke Paley and with in minutes I got a call assuring they would help. From The first communication i was amazed.I knew I was in good hands. Sure enough I was correct. They have guided me through the whole process. I was top priority. With in days we were looking at properties And with in 20 days we found a home and put in the offer. These gentlemen really care and are there to help. I had many questions and concerns which they had answers for. The sense of urgency was outstanding. Simple example is Barry had a scheduled vacation so Luke stepped in. Barry (on vacation) still was in communication from his vacation site. There isn't many who will still prioritize a client while on vacation. This was really impressive. The Keller-Willams Paley team is recommended. They will help you and guide you through the whole process. Thank you Barry and Luke

ZillowVERIFIEDBarry is a true real estate professional. Barry and Team Paley do their research and know the market when it comes to Long Island real estate. Barry had an acceptable offer on our house in one day, and he had us under contract in less than one week! Barry is always responsive and available to us. He takes the time to establish real relationships with his clients, while providing them with stellar representation and counsel. Its clear that Barry loves what he does. We are so thankful to have had him guide us through the sale of our home. We highly recommend him.

ZillowVERIFIEDBarry and his team are excellent at what they do. I have nothing but positive things to say. We were hopelessly searching for the right home with no avail until I was recommended Barry Paley by a close friend. He will get you in to see any house you please and isnt shy about getting it for the right price. He guided us throughout the entire process and made it effortless to purchase our home. We felt as if we were his only clients and were able to reach him at any time of the day. Couldnt be happier.

ZillowVERIFIEDI was fortunate enough to be referred to Barry Paley through a friend and former colleague. After a horrible experience with a previous broker that resulted in delisting my home, I spent a month finding the right person to represent us as our agent. The second my wife and I met Barry, we knew he was different and unique in all the best ways. When engaging Barry, you really engage team Paley, a group of subject matter experts that share best practice, quality advice, and guidance through all situations. Lucas was especially dedicated. He was willing to hold open houses as often as we needed/wanted. Barry's team took some of the best photos we had ever seen, offered a virtual simulator that allowed buyers to see dimensions of each room and place furniture in there to see how it will fit. We had marketing done in multiple languages to appeal to the changing demographics of our neighborhood, open houses as frequent as needed, and strategic follow up with potential buyers and agents. All this resulted in the smoothest transaction with the most qualified buyers. We went from offer to closing in less than a month at a price we were happy with. For all these reasons I highly recommend Barry Paley and team Paley to anyone ready to sell or buy.

ZillowVERIFIEDI don't know what more I can say other than, "Barry Paley is a PROFESSIONAL - he knows what to do, how to do it successfully, and to not waste any time.!" The minute I met him I was impressed and totally convinced that we lucked out and got the right person for the job of selling our house - and he did it in record speed with the least amount of bother (actually, none.) What more could you ask for?

ZillowVERIFIEDFrom our first meeting (deciding to sell the family home) to our last (at closing) Barry handled our house sale as if it were his own. He was knowledgeable, professional and economical. His advice was spot on and we had four fabulous offers within three days of our open house. When there was an issue, Barry was on top of it and usually ahead of it. He recommended vendors to use who were as professional and knowledgeable as he. I would highly recommend Barry and I have already given his number to several of my friends.

ZillowVERIFIEDReview - Written 1/18/2015 by Tara Laszlo and Dominic SciurbaToday is one month since my boyfriend, Dominic, and I closed on the purchase of our beautiful home in Massapequa, NY. We are so happy and grateful, in particular, to Barry Paley of Laffey Fine Homes who worked tirelessly to make our home-buying dream a reality.We were referred to Barry through a friend and even after our initial emails we knew he was the real estate agent who would help us find our home. Dominic and I were first time homebuyers, so there was so much we needed to learn. Barry, as the leading real estate professional on Long Island, had the experience we were looking for to take us through the process. We began searching for our home in the late fall of 2014. We met with Barry and expressed our interest in finding a home in a good school district, on the south shore, and hopefully on the water. Barry listened to our likes and dislikes, our concerns and goals. He told us up front it was his job to make what we wanted happen and that he would do it. And, he did. Barry follows through on his promises. He is trustworthy and dependable. He began pointing us towards homes that he had handpicked for us which met our specifications. As we went out for home showings we relied on his knowledge and expertise in the area. Upon showing us our home, which was the 5th house we saw with Barry, we knew it was the one. So Barry went to work, just like he promised, and we had a deal two days later. One of the best things about working with Barry is that you also get access to his numerous contacts and what Dominic and I jokingly call aEURoeBarrys Circle of TrustaEUR?. Barry is committed to providing the best service for his clients and over the years he has developed a team of real estate professionals to achieve that goal. Our attorney and mortgage broker were both recommended by Barry and working with his team made the process seamless. When it came to negotiating our contract and closing terms, Barry had worked with our seller before and was liked and respected on both sides of the deal. Dominic and I both believe that his reputation and connections made our transaction happen so fast. We signed the contract in October and closed in December. To that point, when we got to the closing, it was like a reunion. Everyone knew Barry. He had worked with all the attorneys, title agents, bankers; everyone at the table had a kind word for him. He has developed a network that is unmatched.Even after our closing, Barry is still an integral part of our lives. We have called on him in the past month for recommendations for decorators and contractors. He reached out to our seller on our behalf when we needed some additional work on the house. Barry does not stop until his clients are 100% satisfied. Finally, let me say the one thing that truly sets Barry apart aEUR" aside from his integrity, work ethic, experience and network aEUR" is the fact that he truly cares about his clients. When you work with Barry he makes you feel like you are his most important client and he gives you first-class service from beginning to end. Barry worked 24/7 for Dominic and me, so we could buy our dream home and I know he is committed to doing the same thing for all his clients. If given the opportunity, he will do the same for you.It is with the deepest sincerity and greatest thanks that Dominic and I recommend Barry Paley. Very truly yours, /s/ Tara Laszlo and Dominic Sciurba

ZillowVERIFIEDI just wanted to thank you Barry for your outstanding level of service and professionalism throughout my home buying process. As a buyer, you knew exactly what I was looking for in a house after a few quick conversations. Once I found the house I wanted, you were amazing in the negotiating process. As a first time home buyer, you educated me every step of the way and I appreciate it. Anything I asked of you was done promptly and professionally. My wife and I could not have been happier with the level of service we received. We got the house we wanted, for the price we wanted! All thanks to you. I would recommend you to anyone looking to buy or sell a house. Thank you for your services!- Zach

ZillowVERIFIEDWhile many of the brokers who brought clients to see the house simply aEURoeshowedaEUR? the house aEUR" Barry aEURoesoldaEUR? the house. He went from room to room with the enthusiasm and energy totally lacking in other brokers. The house was sold (several offers) within the first three weeks.Barry, as promised, was completely hands-on in every aspect before and after the sale aEUR" right up to the moment we closed. He helped both the buyers and us get through some trying times, especially with a bank that took forever to finally establish a closing date. He was available by phone, e-mail and text any time, day and night, and his pleasant demeanor and calm manner proved a boon to everyone.If anyone asks us which broker we thought could do the very best job of selling their home for them, our answer would unquestionably be Barry Paley.

Review for Member: Barry Paley
ZillowVERIFIEDBarry sold my condo in 2010. When my sister died in 2011, I knew that selling her home would be a nearly impossible task. For that reason I hired Barry again. Her home was left in run down condition. I now lived in NJ, and her home was now occupied by her 17 year old son, and her fun loving first husband (not the father). Get the picture? With my permission, I gave the entire "project" over to Barry. We both trusted each other. He brought in contractors to clean the home, fix all the electrical (loose wires, code violatons), cabinet makers, repair & maintenance contractors, pool companies. The house was a disaster and I was in no position to give it away as a handyman's special. Barry negotiated fair prices with all of the vendors; got the house cleaned and fixed up and maintained it, in the face of difficult occupants. While he kept me in the loop on everything, I could not have done it without him.Once the home was ready to be put on the market, Barry aggressively pursued a buyer. He also made sure that there were no code violations with the town that could come back and haunt us at the closing.With Barry, you just don't get an individual selling your home. You get not just a Laffey team, but you get all of Barry's professional contacts, that he has vetted. Once you are in contract, that is where Barry sets himself apart from all the other realtors. He will make sure that you will get to closing. He will give it his all that there are no surprises waiting to kill the deal. In my condo community I recommended Barry to others, and they in turn, have recommended him. Barry is very sharp, yet compassionate, and has his fingers on the pulse of the market, an impossibly difficult one considering the present state of the economy.

ZillowVERIFIEDThe whole process of buying a house especially your first home in this unstable market is very stressfull. However I can honestly say that having Barry as my agent made the whole process seem stress free and even enjoyable. His personality, good nature and his ability not to be pushy to you while on the other hand able to be agressive to seller's agent made you feel at ease and taken care of. I would highly recommend Barry as an agent to anyone who wants to buy THEIR house without feeling pressured but have the feeling that someone is fighting extremmly hard for their cause.

ZillowVERIFIEDBarry exhibited pure professionalism and took a no-nonsense approach to selling my house. After using 2 previous brokers, Barry came on and sold my house within 2 months. He saw the sale through from beginning to end, helping me get the necessary paperwork that was needed and helping me pack up and dispose of unwanted furniture and garbage.It was a pleasure to deal with him and he made a traumatic experience a little less traumatic.

ZillowVERIFIEDBarry exceeded our expectations and went above and beyond what most agents would. I was so confident with his ability and trusted him implicitly that I purchased a property on his recommendation , sight unseen and from half way around the world (Australia). I have no hesitation in recommending Barry to anyone interested buying or selling property.

ZillowVERIFIEDFor three years my wife and I looked for the perfect house for our family. Many brokers heard what we were looking for and just showed us what was on the market at the time as opposed to listening to what exactly we wanted.Barry was different, he listened and looked at only houses that he felt met the needs and desires of my family.Being in Real Estate for 21 years and buying and selling properties all the time I think I am uniquely suited to give a ringing endorsement to Barry he truly was a pleasure, makes you feel like he is on YOUR team and makes the process from start to finish as enjoyable as it can be.Scott Donner

ZillowVERIFIEDBarry is the consumate professional. His local knowledge and expertise in the real estate market is apparent when you work with him. He really paid attention when we told him the type of home we were looking for and our specific needs. We only looked at a handful of homes before we found the one that we bought. I highly recommend him to anyone who is looking for a home in Long Island.

ZillowVERIFIEDBarry Paley has a number of sharply-honed attributes that sustained our confidence in dealing with him during the entire selling process. One, in particular, stands out: His insightful knowledge of the real estate market. Armed with that information, he was able to devise sensible strategies for marketing and pricing our house during a very difficult and competitive real estate market. His confidence and personality kept us calm right through to the closing minutes of the sale. We have only the highest regard for his skills and capabilities. We recomment him highly.Annette and Norton Paley
