ZillowVERIFIEDPhil was very helpful in selling our home. He made great suggestions in the our to present our home, and the pictures posted were fabulous. He was very attentive to all of our needs. He is very good at following up on all things. Helped in getting our rental unit and arranged appointments to see various rental properties. And as we came to the end of the process he was so patient with us and kept us refraining with a difficult buyer. I would highly recommend Phil to anyone.

ZillowVERIFIEDPhil & his wife did an excellent job marketing our home; from the initial interview, to the marketing, Phil was involved in every aspect and kept us apprised of everything. The detail in the pictures were very enticing and brought us a lot of interest. They were able to reach a lot of legitimate buyers and helped us reach what were looking for. They also helped us with the settlement by connecting us with a very good real estate attorney who made the transition seamless.

ZillowVERIFIEDI recently had the pleasure of working with Phil to sell my home, and I couldn't be happier with the experience. From the initial consultation to the final closing, Phil demonstrated professionalism, expertise, and a genuine commitment to achieving the best results for me. His deep knowledge of the local market and strategic approach to marketing resulted in a quick sale at a great price. Communication was always prompt and transparent, making the entire process smooth and stress-free. I highly recommend Phil to anyone looking to buy or sell their home.

ZillowVERIFIEDPhil is a consummate real estate professional who you can trust to not only negotiate the best value but also guide you through the process from A to Z. Nobody knows the local market better than Phil. We trusted Phil as our agent when we bought our home ten years ago and we trusted him once again when we sold our home. He has also helped us with rental properties. It is important to find a real estate agent who not only has tremendous expertise, but also has an extreme attention to detail and will handle everything you need regarding the real estate transaction. Phil is that real estate agent!

ZillowVERIFIEDPhil is an exceptional agent. He went above and beyond his duties, always keeping us abreast of what we needed to do and who we needed to call. All his referrals regarding services needed for our house before closing were superior, and they responded to our requests for repair immediately because they all had a positive connection with Phil. He was more than fair with his commission and maintained complete transparency throughout the entire process from start to finish. You are in good hands with Phil and Two River Realty!

ZillowVERIFIEDPhil from the first handshake in our kitchen to the final closing was an absolute pleasure to work with. His personality is perfect for this business. His decades of experience & local knowledge proved to be invaluable. Since our successful closing, I have recommended Phil to anybody interested in selling/buying a property in the area. I have zero concerns in recommending his services to my friends.

ZillowVERIFIEDPhil is an extremely knowledgeable real estate agent. He knows the market well and states his opinion on the best way to sell your home but also takes into consideration all of your suggestions. He makes selling your home effortless and takes care of everything for you. Phil works hard and non stop to get the job done and to get you the best price for your property. Even though I relocated out of state, the whole transaction went very smooth thanks to Phil. Also I have to mention that he has a great personality and is an all round nice guy!

ZillowVERIFIEDPhil was recommended to me by a friend and I couldn't be happier. As a first-time seller he took the worry out of it due to his expertise and knowledge in every aspect that went into selling a home. Throughout the process he kept me informed and when I had questions (and I had many) he returned my calls in a timely matter and he never made me feel like I was bothering him. Phil was great from start to finish and I highly recommend him to everyone.

ZillowVERIFIEDPhil and his staff at Two River Realty made the difficult task of moving painless. Phil is extremely knowledgeable in keeping the process moving. He anticipates any snags and corrects them. His calm manner eases you through the steps from start to finish. Overall an excellent experience ( even during a pandemic) I highly recommend Phil and his staff to all considering a move. Choosing Phil is the right choice.

ZillowVERIFIEDPhil has helped me many times over the years in both listing and selling properties. Hes always been a pleasant and deeply knowledgeable gentleman to work with. In 2020 he listed my home and assisted me in choosing wisely between two competing offers. He then quickly helped me find my future home in a very fast moving competitive market.

ZillowVERIFIEDEntire process was worry free for us. Our townhome sold in a day. The pictures are excellent, taken on a gloomy day but showed the house with professional lighting. Phil Von Schondorf was with us every step of the way, his recommendations from staging to selecting a lawyer were spot on. We couldn't be happier and our level of trust in Phil is a 10.

ZillowVERIFIEDI went to Phil Von Schondorf for support in selling my home because I knew he had done an outstanding job in selling my daughter's house in Little Silver. Phil is the consummate professional. He knows the realtors, lawyers, inspectors, local tradespeople and township requirements that are key to selling. He is always available to promptly and knowledgeably answer questions, offering information from a variety of perspectives. Whether through marketing, pricing, showing, negotiations and expediting closing (Phil did a personal walkthrough before the final one with the buyers) Phil always went the extra mile. I thank him and recommend him without reservation.

Review for Member: Philip Von Schondorf
ZillowVERIFIEDWe interviewed several realtors prior to signing a contract with Two River Realty. When we met with Phil Von Schondorf, we were very impressed with his incredible knowledge of the real estate market. As we researched the web, we also were impressed with the on line presence his firm had and how the houses they had under contract were presented on their website. After we signed our contract, it was apparent we made the right decision. Phil was so hands on and so responsive to all our questions. He was never too busy and we received call backs immediately. He priced our house right and it sold in 4 days. But he didnt stop there. He followed up with us to keep us informed where things were in the process. Between the time we signed our contract and the closing, the pandemic struck. He researched what resources were closed due to the pandemic and assisted us with getting the proper paperwork to the respective parties involved. It is our opinion that he went above and beyond what realtors do. I would highly recommend Phil without any hesitation.

ZillowVERIFIEDI met Phil at an event supporting a local school a few years back. Since, he has helped our family purchase two homes and sell one. In each instance he was informative, available, flexible and supportive. At times, he steered us clear of potential bad decisions, always looking out for our best interest for the long term. In every transaction, all parties involved have praised him - other realtors, the attorneys, lenders, etc. I am very grateful to be his client and friend, and I recommend him fully.

ZillowVERIFIEDPhil Von Schondorf is that rare real estate professional who is highly knowledgeable; as an out-of-state owner, he smoothly guided me through NJ real estate listing and contract law, negotiation and closing. He sold my property in 2 weeks; was highly responsive to securing paperwork for closing; and met our price expectations. I would highly recommend his Two River Realty for its expertise in closing the sale.

ZillowVERIFIEDPhil Von Schondorf was wonderful. He was right on target with all of his advice. We sold the house for just above the price that he suggested for the listing. He moved very quickly to list it and were able to get several good offers within days. Phil is very well connected in the community and was able to work with our lawyer to expedite the closing. We were able to close on the house within 30 days of listing it. He was just a an all around pleasure to work with and I highly recommend the Von Schondorfs.

ZillowVERIFIEDPhil and his partner/wife Debbie came to the house my family lived in for 70 years. They immediately recognized its positive qualities and also what reasonable and minor treatment was needed to make it most sales appealing.My sister and I, co-executors of my mother's estate, followed his suggestions for limited fix up. Offers came in immediately it was on the market; actually even before. While other realtors had suggested pricing it tens of thousands of dollars less than we priced it with Phil, the offers ended up matching or exceeding our asking price. Phil had full and exact knowledge of negotiation and of our legal rights as sellers. We ended up closing one month after it went on the market, for above asking price with extra benefits, to a happy buyer.Using Phil at Two Rivers Realty is one of the best decisions my sister and I have made in a long time.

Review for Member: Philip Von Schondorf
ZillowVERIFIEDWe were selling our mother's house and it was an "as is" situation. Phil was very knowledgable about the housing market with a house in "as is" condition. After only one (1) Open House, we had two (2) offers on the table a day apart of each other. An offer was accepted and the house closed two (2) months later. We had many conversations with Phil during our contact with him and he was always available to speak to on the phone or would meet at the house. We would not hesitate to recommend Philip VonSchondorf to anyone interested in selling a home as he is very reliable and very easy to talk to about any concerns that may come up.

ZillowVERIFIEDI used Two River Realty and Phil Von Schondorf to list and sell my condo in Long Branch, NJ. From Phil's explanation of a Negotiated Full Service Commission Fee (as low as 3%), to having multiple Open Houses, to being confident enough to suggest I pass on terrible low bids, to making sure we got to the closing table in a timely fashion---I fully and completely recommend Phil and Two River Realty for any of your local Monmouth County Real Estate needs.

ZillowVERIFIEDI recently sold my condo in less than 2 weeks of it being on the market. I attribute the quick sale to the knowledge of my Real Estate Agent, Phil Von Schondorf. He gave me honest advice and helped me price the condo exactly right. He helped me with all aspects of the sale from getting the condo ready, through the offer process and also in finding a fantastic lawyer for the closing. I highly recommend Phil, who has been in the business of Real Estate for over 15 years which is how long I owned the condo. Phil stayed in touch with me over the years, which is why I initially chose him to help with the sale. Great job, Great Agent!

I couldn't have asked for a better experiance with Phil!!! You would be lucky to work with him..

Review for Member: Philip Von Schondorf
ZillowVERIFIEDDue to our impending divorced about 4 years ago, I got a real estate agent and began to look for homes in the general area where I lived. On weekends I would also go to open houses on my own and Phil was the agent for one of those open houses. I was so impressed with him at the time that I had decided then, without telling him, that he would be our agent when we were ready to sell our marital home four years later. Four years later I came calling and, indeed, he sold our house in relatively short time and in a very tough market. My ex was so impressed with him that she, too, selected him as her agent in her quest to find a place of her own. Yes, Phil knows his business, he knows the local market, etc. But, most important of all, he is extremely patient and works exceptionally well with even the most challenging clients. Oh, and the best part? Phil will not charge you an arm or a leg for his commission. I've seen many, many real estate agents in action but, unlike most of the agents that I've dealt with, this guy is a really genuinely NICE person and a real professional. I recommend him without the slightest hesitation.

ZillowVERIFIEDPhil Von Shondorf is the owner/agent of Two River Realty, in Little Silver, NJ. He is a true real estate professional and fine gentleman. He listed our home and provided us with many excellent services. He was always available for any questions we had. He returned phone calls immediately.He advertised on line and in local newspapers. He made beautiful flyers and post cards that showcased our home most favorably. He took professional photos and virtual staging that helped sell our home in a timely manner. He held frequent Open Houses that he hosted. In fact our buyer actually came from one of the Open Houses! As owner/agent , Phil was able to provide us with a real estate fee plan that was best in our area, and saved us a substantial amount of money. Always a good thing!My husband and I would highly recommend Phil for any and all of your real estate needs. In fact, we have already recommended Phil and Two River Realty to two family friends.

ZillowVERIFIEDPhil came highly recommended from a friend of ours. As soon as we started working with him, we knew why. He is GREAT! We didn't know the area that well and were not even sure what town we wanted to live in. He drove us around, showed us the different towns and was so helpful at providing us with the information we need (i.e. daycare locations, train station, restaurants, shopping, etc.). He really cared about what we were looking for and showed us houses that he knew we would like. We could tell that he truly cared about us being happy and he made it his goal to find us our dream home.We fell in love with one of the houses we saw but wanted to be sure. I wanted my parents to come see it and get their opinion. While I was at work one day, my parents drove up to meet Phil and he took them to see the house. In addition, he drove them around, showed them the area and gave them a feel of where we would be moving. To me, that was going above and beyond.Phil negotiated on our behalf and we got the house! Throughout the whole process, he was fantastic. He was always available for questions and helped guide us through what was a totally new experience for us. He constantly checked in on us, and made sure everything on our end was moving smoothly. We highly recommend Phil if you are looking for a house. He really took it upon himself to get to know us, understand what we were looking for and show us houses within our price range. He got us our dream home and we couldn't be happier!!!

ZillowVERIFIEDWe recently sold our home in Little Silver, New Jersey. We had lived there for 22 years and were very nervous about the sales process. Phil helped us determine what to do to help position our home to its best advantage. He set up a meeting with a professional house stager as part of our agreement with him. With her help we determined what to do to each room of our home. After we did the suggested changes, he had a professional photographer come in to photograph the house for the online advertising. He scheduled an immediate Realtor open house and then a public open. Our home sold immediately. But, his involvement continued through the negotiation process and the closing process. I can honesty say that if we did not have Phil as our Realtor, the closing would never have happened. He was on top of the entire process making everything go smoothly and assisting both the seller's Realtor and the closing attorneys. He was always available to answer any questions we had or to solve any problems that came up and the best part is thanks to his help we received top dollar for our home. I would HIGHLY recommend him to anyone!!! ( He also did a fabulous job selling my father's house!)

ZillowVERIFIEDFrom the moment you begin thinking about selling your home until the moving van pulls away at your closing, Phil VonShondorf is there expertly guiding you through the entire process. His knowledge of real estate is vast. He is responsive but never pushy. He does an excellent job of knowing when to step in with information, guidance and advice and when to take a step back to allow you time to think and consider decisions. You can put your real estate needs in his hands and then trust and relax that the job will be done well with honesty and integrity. He takes the stress out of real estate. It was a pleasure working with him and I would recommend him without reservation to anyone in need of a broker/realtor.
