Outstanding First-Home Buying Experience with Mary. Mary was the perfect partner throughout the entire process of buying our first home. She took the time to truly understand our needs, provided thoughtful guidance, and made us feel supported and confident as first-time buyers. Even when we encountered a few hiccups after moving in, Mary remained incredibly accommodating and responsive. Her professionalism, patience, and genuine care made our home-buying experience smooth and memorable. Were so grateful for all her help and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trusted realtor!

The team of Mary and Naomi was fantastic. They were flexible in driving the hour to Washington to show me homes. When I found the home I wanted, they helped me through the purchase and closing process. Mary and Naomi were instrumental in the sale and closing of my previous home. I don't think it is normal to hit so many glitches between the sale and closing due to borough requirements. They were with me every step of the way, they made reliable suggestions, kept me informed and calm. It was a pleasure working with Mary and Naomi, I would highly recommend!!

Mary is by far the best, not just in the business but as a human. She's patient, accommodating, super kind, and extremely knowledgeable at what she does and the areas that she works in. I can't stress enough that your go-to for buying or selling a home must be with Mary! (and I've got a lot of experience working with her, with 2 buys and 1 sell completed!)

Mary was a wonderful realtor in every way. She helped me through each step of my purchase and was always available with my questions and concerns. I particularly appreciated her calm demeanor as we worked through the negotiation process. I highly recommend her.
