Sal has a relaxed demeanor and he puts his clients at ease immediately. He offered suggestions on the best way to show our home. He is present at EVERY showing, he responds immediately to texts, phone calls and email. He handles EVERYTHING for you including the Attorney! He really takes the stress off your shoulders. Commissions are fair. We recommend him to everyone. I guarantee you will not be sorry. We feel sorry for Mrs. Sal because this guy works 24/7. He's #1 for a reason!

Sal sold my home at 375 Gurley Ave. Staten Island, N.Y quickly in the middle of a pandemic. He put a video on YouTube, made 3D images, took many pictures, etc. all for a low commission. He is very experienced and knows how to get the job done, period. I can go on and on that he was nice, polite, has personality blah blah blah, but who cares about that. Lol. I would definitely recommend.
Sal is professional, knowledgeable, responsive and respectful . Sal was with me every step of the way from listing, to marketing, to negotiating, to closing. Every phone call, text and email was answered quickly and efficiently. He was confident he could sell my home and this in turn alleviated the anxiety associated with selling a home. I highly recommend Sal.
Sal is great and professional. He was very responsive in answering all the questions I had for the house and the seller. He always keeps me up-to-date on the current progress and made the process more smooth.
Sal was amazingly on point throughout the entire listing / selling process. He went above and beyond any realtor we have ever had. It would be a huge mistake, not to list with him! Thank you Sal, for your expertise.
Salvatore was very professional, from the beginning to the end and his level of communication was amazing always was opened to all questions or concerns me and my family may of had, Sal made our move much less painful than i though and more smoother. If i had to sell another house i would definitely list with him again.
Our realtor Salvatore Taormina was an absolute pleasure to work with on the sale of our home. He gave us the BEST customer service, always made himself available whenever we had any questions or concerns. He gave us excellent advice during the entire process. Thank you again for making this a wonderful experience for us.
Sal sold my home and what an amazing experience . He was very personal well versed in real estate. Was a great pleasure working with him , highly recommend his service to anyone looking to sell or buy a home in the nyc area
The most professional realtor I have ever dealt with. Honest, hardworking, and dedicated. I highly recommend. Sal was persistent and knowledgeable with every angle of the transaction from the start. Myself (the seller) and the buyer were both extremely impressed with his work ethic and care for everyone involved.
I want to begin with thanking Sal and his team. He has helped us with getting the best price for our property. He was personally involved in each step of the process coordinating and helping with the inspections and home appraisal. I will continue to recommend him as a professional for any real estate sale and purchase as he ensures his clients best interest.
Sal was instrumental in helping us sell our house.Being from a different county than the property we were selling, Sal helped us a lot by making sure someone could be at the property when access was needed by different parties (appraiser, HPD, buyers, deliveries...)I would recommend him to everyone and would 100% use him again.
The experience that I had with Sal was great. We met at an open house for one of his listings. He listened to my wants and needs and helped me understand the best fit. I had many wants on my list and he helped tirelessly. We toured 30 plus listings until we found the house that checked all the boxes. During negotiations I was willing to pay asking price but he refused and we received a 6% discount. My house has appreciated roughly 20% since purchase. Couldnt be happier.
I was working with another realtor who was having issues selling the house. Sal was brought in to sell the property due to his extension knowledge and experience in the area. He is a consummate professional who was able to sell the house in a short period of time. I have used Sal for 3 additional properties after the first one and has surpassed all expectations. Will only use Sal from this point on.
I cant thank Sal enough for all of his hard work, dedication and time spent assisting us with the purchase of this home. The seller was in contract and there were title issues but Sals persistence coupled with his recommendation for patience paid off. We most definitely will suggest him to anyone we know who is selling or wanting to purchase a home as Sal is an expert in his field and we are lucky to have him as our realtor.
Sal is very knowledgeable and a true professional. He sold my house quickly, brought the right buyers, and had a lot of expertise. His suggested pricing was right on point and he got top dollar for my property.

Sals 24/7 dedication to following through to make sure the property was not only sold but properly marketed is why he is is and will stay on the very top of his profession. His initial research and creativity as to accomplishing the goal was impressive and rewarding. I look forward to not only retaining him for future properties but highly recommend him to my friends, family and colleagues to get the job done. Excellent job Sal. Thank you.
What an amazing experience well versed and professional real estate agent. Sold my home in less then 6 months on the market and got me above asking price. I will highly recommend him to anyone looking to buy or sell.
Sal has been a tremendos asset for my real estate portfolio and is a short sale master!!!! His response rate is second to none. He stays on top of everyone. Lawyers, title companies etc.. Sal helped me with the entire short sale process with 3B Ludwig Lane. He negotiated with the bank and seller until the deal was able to close.
Sal was the manager in charge of my short sale. Prior to engaging SalThree other firms failed to complete the sale. Sal is professional and has great people/negotiation skills.Additionally we lost our buyer and thru Sal efforts he quickly found a new buyer.I would and will use Sal for any real estate transaction in the future.
We used Sal Taormina, a broker from DeFalco Realty in Staten Island, NY to sell our home in Princes Bay last Fall and he was outstanding.Before choosing a real estate agent, I conducted a lot of research to see who would be the best choice based on the investment they make into selling the property (time and effort, not necessarily financially) and how they promote their listings. Sal stood out as the best realtor Staten Island has to offer: his rankings are excellent (meaning people find listings on his site easily), his social media presence was strong, and I could tell he puts a lot of work into their listings.We spoke with Sal and then met with him at our home. He spent time answering our questions, providing objective data regarding how many homes he sells, how long his listings typically stay on the market, and provided tons of info on comps in the area. We were concerned that our house, which was located on the corner of a busy street and in a neighborhood with hundreds of similar homes would be tough to sell. Sal made the process incredibly easy and took extra steps many other Realtors don't (but should), like having a pro come and give us staging tips, having professional photographs taken, and a lot more.When we saw our listing we were blown away. His hard work and knowledge of what it takes to sell a home really paid off - our listing looked amazing and knocked out the competition. The second buyer that saw the property put in an offer.Our house went under contract in less than a month after we put it on the market. We accepted and Sal walked us through every step of the closing process. It couldn't have been a more pleasant experience.I've recommended the Sal Taormina of DeFalco Real Estate Team to everyone I know. He's a true professional and a genuinely nice guy. I realize it won't always be this easy to sell your home, but I think you'd be hard pressed to find a better Realtor.
Sal is an expert in his field. He was committed throughout the process to get the deal done and to the satisfaction of all. Communication and assistance from beginning to close was seamless and helped us get through what is typically a stressful time for both buyer/seller. I consider him to be a trustworthy and caring professional and would highly recommend especially in more complicated sales.
