Review for Member: Elia Rubinstein
ZillowVERIFIEDThis is the second time I worked with Elia for a home transaction. Elia was the consummate professional. I actually moved out-of-state before the house was ready to go on the market, so Elia had to supervise the cleanup and staging process as well as the sale itself. She priced the house properly so we had viable offers the day it went on the market and I was kept informed throughout the process. She even kept an eye on the house as it was empty and sent me weekly pictures of the garden I had planted before I decided to move. My only regret is that I now live off Long Island and will not be able to utilize Elia's services in the future.

ZillowVERIFIEDI recently had the pleasure of working with Elia Rubinstein of Realty Connect for both my new home purchase and on the sale of my home. From start to finish, Elia demonstrated a high level of professionalism, expertise, knowledge and dedication to making sure everything went smoothly. Elia was always a strong advocate for my best interests and truly cared about what was best for my family and I. I highly recommend her to anyone who is looking to buy or sell a home!

ZillowVERIFIEDWe recently sold our house on Long Island and found Elia Rubinstein to be wonderful to work with. She is not only knowledgeable and skilled in the field of real estate but she was always available to answer any questions and to address our concerns, always with a smile. We strongly recommend her without any reservation.

ZillowVERIFIEDElia did an outstanding job in the process of selling my house. At first meeting she came prepared with comps and information to get started immediately. She is very pleasant to deal with, available at all times. Elia was able to turn an extremely stressful process into one that ran smoothly and cheerfully. Her expertise and negotiating skills were outstanding. I would recommend Elia without hesitation.

ZillowVERIFIEDElia RubinsteinWe recently worked with Elia Rubinstein to sell our house of may years in eastern long island. We had lived in this house for 45 years, raised our four children and often hosted family and friends. However, now that we were both retired, it was clear that we no longer needed to worry about such a large house and we wanted to be closer to children. To say it was a difficult decision and a traumatic transition would be an understatement.From the initial listing to the closing, Elia was terrific. She attended to every detail, both minor and significant and held our hands through the entire process. We listed the house on a Thursday, Elia hosted open houses on Saturday and Sunday and by Tuesday, we had seven written offers for our asking price or more. By Thursday, just one week later, we were in contract. Elia then oversaw all the details and was with us for the inspection and everything else that came up; including helping us find individuals to help us with the big project of downsizing and disposing of what we could not take with us. She was there with us at the closing as well.No question, Elia Rubinstein is the consummate professional who knows the real estate business inside and out. We could not have been happier and we would recommend her enthusiastically and with no reservations. If you live in Suffolk County and need a real estate agent, Elia is an excellent choice.

ZillowVERIFIEDElia was an absolute pleasure to work with. She helped us find our home in Long Island and helped us sell it when we moved out of town. She is a strong advocate for her clients and she goes above and beyond for them. She does everything she can to ensure a smooth process. I would definitely recommend Elia to prospective clients!

ZillowVERIFIEDI would highly recommend Elia Rubinstein as a Real Estate Agent. She listed and sold our condo on the first day that the condo showed, for much more than the asking price. Elia made our job easy. She was professional, responsive and she kept us informed every step of the way.Elia made suggestions regarding improvements to the condo. Her good sense of judgement made a big difference in the final price. We felt that Elia was very knowledgeable, and we trusted her guidance. Elia is an asset to her profession.

ZillowVERIFIEDBought and sold my house with this wonderful realtor. When purchasing, I was living in another state and she would even FaceTime me at locations to avoid traveling. Goes above and beyond. Look no further.

ZillowVERIFIEDElia was such a great agent to work with. She took into account what my husband and I wanted in our forever home. She didnt mind showing us houses that she knew wouldnt be right for us but was something we wanted to checkout. She was available for us whenever we needed her, and always returned texts/calls. Within a few short weeks Elia was able to find us our forever home and get it for a below asking price- which in this current market is almost unheard of! Elia is upfront, honest and no nonsense which is exactly what we wanted! If you are looking for an agent who is going to listen to your wants, make time for her clients, and willing to fight for you; then Elia is your agent!

ZillowVERIFIEDAt 69 years old I finally decided to sell the house where I grew up and downsize. Elia helped me define my goals and then identified homes that met my criteria. With her help I was able to find a new home in just two weeks and the entire process went very smoothly. At the same time she recommended some upgrades to help me maximize the value of the house I was selling and it worked: it sold on the first day for thousands more than I expected. She was very patient with me and explained each step of the process, making suggestions that helped me focus on the best value as both a buyer and seller. I highly recommend her for anyone interested in quality service in a realtor.

ZillowVERIFIEDElia helped us find our first home in Lake Grove. She was very helpful in the process, answered any questions that we had, and even helped us with some negotiations with the selling party. She also helped us find the mortgage company, and several contractors to help us after the purchase. She was great throughout the entire process and we are very happy with the outcome.

ZillowVERIFIEDThe experience of having a top real estate agent on your side is Elia Rubinstein. She was on top of her game.The house was sold right away,even in the height of the covid-19 pandemic, she managed to get my pictures up on the web, and virtual viewing. She is great at what she does. I would recommend her to friends and family.

ZillowVERIFIEDIts always refreshing to work with someone with integrity and a strong work ethic. Elia knows exactly what needs to be done to find you a new home and sell your current one. She does the leg-work, tells it like it is, and gets it done! We are so lucky to have worked with her and highly recommend her without reservation.

ZillowVERIFIEDElia helped us find an apartment when we were moving here to NY in 2014, and she then helped us buy our first home in July of 2019. She was very patient and understanding with us, as my only other experience buying was in Illinois, which is VERY different. She has a fantastic knowledge of the area and truly understood what both my husband and I, and our daughter 'the boss' were looking for in a home.

ZillowVERIFIEDElia deserves every star on this review. Not only is she one of the kindest people Ive ever met, but the absolute hardest working and knowledgeable agents weve worked with. She stayed up late, went out of her way, and spent a great amount of time with us to help us buy a home, and we couldnt appreciate it more. Shes available via email, text, and phone call at nearly all hours of the day, and works hard to get you what you want. We highly, highly recommend Elia for your real estate needs!

ZillowVERIFIEDI met Elia when she was hosting an open house for a client. I was just looking at the time, but I knew from her presentation that I wanted to work with her in the future. After speaking with Elia, she knew exactly what I was looking for and found my currently property in a matter of 3 weeks. She negotiated a fantastic price for me and within a week and a half of seeing the property, I was under contract. She kept in contact with me ever step of the way and made what could have been a stressful time, very comforting. She was by my side the day of closing and I has very happy to have her there with me explaining the process. I would not hesitate to refer Elia to anyone I know who is in the process of buying or selling a home.

ZillowVERIFIEDShe's very thorough in her home assessments and is very straightforward in telling you her thoughts about your thoughts and inquiries of different properties. If she thinks something is unrealistic you'd definitely know. She's very hard working and accommodating. Would defer to the lawyer she works with who is very good and responsive when she's unsure of process.

ZillowVERIFIEDAs a first time home buyer coming in with very little knowledge about home purchasing, Elia was able to guide me every step of the way. Not only was Elia my real estate agent, she was my advocate and my lawyer when things needed to get done. She kept me calm throughout the process and provided me with information whenever needed. I would recommend Elia to anyone who wish to have as much as a wonderful experience that I had working with her.

ZillowVERIFIEDI can not say enough wonderful things about Elia. We searched for many months for our perfect home, and Elia was supportive, knowledgable, worked tirelessly, was always joyful, available and responsive, and an absolute pleasure! This is our first time buying a home and she was there through all of the stress and worry. She explained everything and provided guidance and warmth. Honestly, she went above and beyond every single step of the way. Even previewing and Face-timing homes to me since we were looking to buy in another state. Elia is honest, caring, and just terrific. If you're searching for an agent, look no further!

ZillowVERIFIEDWe could not have asked for a better agent, or human being to help us buy our first home. Elia spent several months with us both hunting through listings and showing us houses. We had to travel from out of state many many weekends, and every time we visited she had booked every listing we requested. She answered emails all times and worked around our schedule entirely, taking us out to look at houses on days and times we were hoping for without any hesitation, and she was always in great spirits. She helped guide us through the process entirely and gave us support. When it came to making an offer, Elia was a trusted advisor and her judgment was consistently on target for pricing, timing, conditions, and the mortgage application process. Just as important, Elia loves what she does and takes pride in her work and in finding a perfect match. She went on a mission for us to find a house on a short time frame and in a tough market, and to help us find a house that was a perfect match and not a compromise. Her instincts were sharp, and we succeeded. We bought a beautiful house below list price after a bidding war. I feel blessed to have met her.

ZillowVERIFIEDElia was wonderful to work with. I had listed my home in the past with other brokers and was unsuccessful with the sale. I listed my home with Elia and the home sold in 5 weeks. She is diligent and knowledgeable. She is always available and ready to address any concerns. When it came time for me to purchase a new home; she had a variety to show me in the price range and local. If you are looking for an excellent realtor she is the one!!

ZillowVERIFIEDElia was very knowledgable and easy to work with. We had specific needs and price range and she made sure to send us listings that matched what we wanted. Due to our limited availability to go house hunting, we needed to see tons of homes in a short amount of time. She happily took whole Saturdays up and showed us 7-9 homes a day until we found the perfect home. She is extremely knowledgable and asked a ton of questions to the sellers/agents of each home we saw to ensure everything was up to code and that we were getting a good deal. We ended up dealing with very difficult sellers and their lawyer. She stayed on top of them during the whole drawn out home-buying process to made sure the deal went through and that we weren't blindsided by anything. From beginning to end she was available to contact 24/7. She really looks out for her clients best interest.

ZillowVERIFIEDElia is one of the best agents I have worked with. She is extremely knowledgable, a pleasure to work with, and genuinely cares about her clients. She is available at all hours of the day and will even respond after hours to ensure the client is satisfied with the deal. She works for the client and makes sure her client's needs are met. There is never any pressure from her to close a deal. I have personally worked with her on a deal and she always has your best interest at heart. I have personally referred her to family and friends and they have nothing but great things to say about her and her work product.
