ZillowVERIFIEDSari is personable, knowledgeable, and incredibly responsive. She was a great partner and resource for us during our search for our new home. She never pressured us into a decision. She ultimately became a friend and even made house hunting fun for our 2 year old. We definitely recommend Sari.

ZillowVERIFIEDOur experience with Sari was truly exceptional. She provided guidance, support and expertise throughout the entire process from the initial preparation of the house for sale all the way through the close of the transaction. She is incredibly knowledgeable about the local marketplace from both a buyer and sellers perspective allowing her to be a very astute negotiator.Sari markets not only the house but also the overall community. She willingly connects perspective buyers with families that she has previously placed within the community. She also gives back to the community as a lead sponsor for many events and activities. Most importantly, she is honest, patient and has a great sense of humor; all of which were critical in helping us through the process. Whether you are a buyer or seller, we highly recommend Sari Shaw.

ZillowVERIFIEDSari was THE BEST - She knew everything about the market, was super responsive and became a close friend. AND got us an amazing house during a crazy market. We would not have gotten this house if it wasn't for her knowledge. I can only say wonderful things about her and her team!

ZillowVERIFIEDI couldn't have been in better hands. From the moment Sari evaluated the house she gave me prudent, well thought out suggestions on how to maximize the sale price - and she ended up selling the place for asking price before we even got it listed.Her after contract service was every bit as good if not better - and she never let up in taking care of the details leading to closing today.I'm very grateful and recommend her highly.

ZillowVERIFIEDAs first time homebuyers in a chaotic market (early 2022) that consisted of huge crowds at showings and multiple interested buyers offering highest and best on homes, we could not have found a home without Sari.She is incredibly quick to respond, has a deep knowledge of the area, and does a great job of providing you with the data you need to assess a home. She walked us through the pros and cons of all the houses we visited but still gave us room to come to our own conclusions without being pushy. Throughout the entire process it was clear she cared about us and our opinions and would advocate on our behalf. She supported us through losing bids and even provided evidence to support a reappraisal after our first came in low despite the fact we had waived our appraisal contingency and would have moved forward regardless. Even after we had contracted on a home, she kept us up to date on events happening in the area to make sure we felt welcome.Overall, I highly recommend Sari as an agent to any potential buyers and truly look forward to keeping in touch even now that we have closed on a home.

ZillowVERIFIEDWe met Sari on a Thursday. By the following Wednesday, we had a signed contract on our dream home, and had also gained a trusted advisor and friend. All of this during the most competitive market in real estate history! Sari assisted us in countless ways, from helping sign up our son for the towns soccer team tryout to bringing us delicious muffins to enjoy on the morning of our inspection. Sari always goes above and beyond. We feel so fortunate to have worked with her!

ZillowVERIFIEDSari brings many outstanding tools to the table. First, soon after we met she quickly assumed trusted advisor status by advising us not to spend a lot of money on certain things around the house that bothered us. Sari advised also not to stress on certain issues which other realtors had us running in circles about. We all see that on the surface realtors seem conflicted as the more money you spend fixing things the easier it is for them to sell at a higher price, while the seller receives the net. Not Sari. Her advice on what to spend to prepare for sale was spot on and her recommendations of who to hire to fix things at reasonable prices also excellent. Sari advised the optimal date to hit the market and again great timing. Her advice on listing price was perfect to set up a feeding frenzy. And Saris intuition on negotiation with offers was a pleasure to see. We strongly recommend working with Sari. But rememberaEUR|.a realtor is an advisor and whomever you hire your bang for the buck comes from following their advice

ZillowVERIFIEDSari Shaw has made my first time condo/ home buying experience so stress free .I was searching for a realtor in the area i love- she had such great reviews in Zillow- i was a little hesitant as i thought she would be such a busy woman as she appeared to be so in demand - but my gut told me to call her and as soon as i did - She made me feel like i was the only one she was taking care of, right from the start-very impressive knowledge of the area - very attentive to all my questions and concerns I had with my first time home buying experience , knowledgeable and confident in her field, patiently answering all my non stop questions and attending to all my requests - which by the way - she got all my requests done??She provided me with an awesome real estate lawyer and other recommendations i requested -and after meeting them , it just validated the special kind of person Sari is. Best of all - She was able to help in getting the seller to choose my offer against a cash paying buyer- ????????????just shows you how Sari has got good negotiating skills to back you up - always advocating for her clients ????????Sari also made the process of coming to the closing so streamline because of her recommended lawyer - On my closing day - Sari made my walkthrough very welcoming and heartwarming - I cannot thank you enough Sari for making my home buying experience so special one to remember for sure .You would never go wrong in choosing Sari Shaw to assist you in your home buying experience.

ZillowVERIFIEDSari was an absolute delight to work with throughout our entire selling process. She gave us valuable insight into the market and guided us on how to maximize our sale. She has a wealth of knowledge and resources that helped to seamlessly prepare us for getting our house onto the market, then shown and into contract in under a week! The entire process with Sari was executed smoothly and professionally and we could not have asked for a better experience!

ZillowVERIFIEDSari is the best! We had no prior knowledge of the area, but with Sari on our team, we were able to get up to speed quickly! She has a very deep knowledge of the Pleasantville/Chappaqua market and was spot on with her predictions of what things would go for. She also knows all the people you need to get a deal done (inspector, lawyer, mortgage lenders, plus tons of recs for people to do work on the house, local restaurants, and so much more). Would highly recommend her to anyone considering the area!

ZillowVERIFIEDPersonable, knowledgeable, so clued into the area its amazing. Very user friendly and the woman you want on your side. She knows what needs to be done and makes it happen in an expeditious manner. We could not be more grateful to have had her on our team for this and could discuss at length her merits. We were in a time crunch, moving across country, with a baby on the way and she made it as easy as possible. You could not ask for a better realtor.

ZillowVERIFIEDI have had several agents in the past but Sari by far is the best we ever had. She is a no nonsense person who gets the job done. She makes a difficult experience almost stress free. Her wide selection of resources makes it easy to do the necessary chores and repairs to get ones house in tip top shape without spending a fortune. We simply love the work she has done and is worth every penny of commission!

ZillowVERIFIEDSari Shaw is the dictionary definition of real estate agent. Sari is knowledgeable, personable, professional, and incredibly responsive. She is smart and savvy - two qualities you want in an agent. As a dedicated and hard worker, she goes above and beyond in all ways and made the stressful experience of selling a home manageable and at times even fun. She answered all my questions instantly and was always ready to do whatever research was necessary to get needed information and documents. Sari was on the job 24/7. She offered direction and advice, which in all cases turned out to be correct. She was extremely familiar and connected with the community, which made the whole process smoother.Sari navigated the challenges of selling my home masterfully from the first time she entered the house through the closing meeting. She was by my side the whole time and became so much more to me than just a real estate agent. I would recommend her to anybody 1,000% without reservation.She is the best broker ever!

ZillowVERIFIEDSari was simply phenomenal. She was extremely responsive and knowledgably with not just areas of homes, but everything else that would go with it. She helped us find our forever home but also taught us so many different things throughout the process. Anytime we needed something she was there, anytime we had issues, she was there, and anytime we weren't sure about something or something didn't seem right, she was there. When we were negotiating, she was masterful with her advice. She knew what to do, she knew what to say, and she knew how to explain why we should go about things a certain way.We not only walked away with a home but with a strong friendship. Sari is simply phenomenal.

ZillowVERIFIEDSelecting an agent was very difficult as I had worked with so many over the years throughout my career. There were so many factors that went into my decision, including, how I had seen Sari interact with and handle other clients, other lawyers, glitches, and problems along the way. Her knowledge of the market trends, the towns, houses, was unmatched. Sari never got frazzled and never panicked. She handled all situations with such grace, moral support, lots of hand-holding, a little humor, and was always respectful and professional.

ZillowVERIFIEDI can not imagine our home buying process without Sari. She is incredibly knowledgeable, connected to the community, and, most importantly, an absolute straight shooter. As first time home buyers with little familiarity with Westchester, Sari guided us through the entire process. This included identifying the right community for our family, countless home tours (often with our two young children in tow - who loved her just as much as we did) as well as actually making a successful offer on a home in what anyone will tell you is an incredibly competitive market. She was always available, patient with our questions, and flexible with our schedules. Anyone who has gone through this process understands how stressful and emotional it can be and I have no doubt that without Sari we would STILL be looking for a home for our family. I would not hesitate to recommend Sari and would work with her again in a heartbeat. Thank you Sari!!!

Review for Member: Sari Shaw
ZillowVERIFIEDIntuitive, personable, as good of a listener as she is a talker (there is little doubt that she is your advocate), super smart yet down to earth, a realist with a sense of humor who will nonetheless help you fulfill your dreams as best she can, Shari came recommended to us by a work colleague and we were lucky to have her on our team. We were looking at homes to buy, sight unseen (in a state we had never lived in) from out of the country, and Sari went above and beyond to schedule us Facetime tours of the houses/neighborhoods, to set us up with a mortgage broker (a very good one at that!), to connect us with an attorney (who also went above and beyond dealing with a terribly difficult seller's attorney), and to advise us and show up in our place (even during her second-to-last day of vacation) when we couldn't ourselves due to the international distance. Ours was not an easy process but Sari did everything she could to make it as easy as possible and was absolutely a tireless advocate, supporter, and even therapist for us. We ended up with a house that we love in a beautiful area (and we are not paying too high of taxes, relatively-speaking, because she wouldn't let us). Thank you, Sari!

ZillowVERIFIEDWe have bought and sold many properties over the past decades, and Sari has been by far the best and most effective agent we have ever worked with. She understood quickly what we were looking for and helped us find the best match for our needs. Not only is she extremely knowledgeable, resourceful, and savvy, but she will take the time and put in the effort to research for anything she may not know. Her service was remarkable, making herself available whenever we asked. Truly a pleasure to work with. Her pleasant and cheerful personality made our meetings a joy.

Review for Member: Sari Shaw
ZillowVERIFIEDWhere do I begin, other than saying that we should have never worked with anyone but Sari. She extricated us from a terrible situation with our previous agents. All while handling everything with professionalism and grace. Once we started working with Sari, stress sort of just vanished from our lives. From the moment she took over our account to the closing of the sale, Sari was with us every step of the way. Whether it came to negotiating the multiple offers or being present during the inspections, or being in touch with the attorney, up to the final closing, Sari treated the sale of our house as if it were her own. We always felt that Sari had our back. Having worked with many realtors over the years, we have never come across any one more thoughtful, caring and professional. We would work with Sari in a heartbeat.

ZillowVERIFIEDSari is one of the best agents that I have worked with. I interviewed three agents prior to making my decision to work with Sari to sell my house. I am very happy with the decision. Sari understands the market very well. The whole selling process was smooth and quick (we accepted an offer within a few days of the house being listed on the market). Sari is always available to address any concerns and is always professional. Sari has great communication and negotiation skills. I highly recommend Sari!

ZillowVERIFIEDMy husband and I decided to move our family to Chappaqua, where I had grown up. I thought I knew all there was to know about the town, but still sought out who clearly stood out in recommendations, as the best in the business. I am so glad I did! Sari was incredible to work with. She helped make our search so seamless and made all our trips from NJ to see houses very efficient and informative. She navigated the entire process with such professionalism and care and is a master negotiator when needed. We are so grateful to have had Sari on our side and through the process have not only found an incredible broker, but also a wonderful friend.

Review for Member: Sari Shaw
ZillowVERIFIEDOur home was listed for 9 months with another broker, We received the same negative feedback time and time again. When potential buyers did express some interest, they just ended up walking away and choosing another home to purchase; our broker just seemed to sit back and watch. We felt so defeated. Our broker had no suggestions for us other than "reduce the price." Consequently, we reduced the price several times before contacting Sari, who was quite familiar with our home. We asked Sari if we should reduce the price yet again, and she said "Absolutely not, it's already under market! You have a great home, and it will sell quickly, but, I do have some suggestions." We followed Sari's advice, and our home sold in 3 days. Sari really knows the market, and knows what buyers want. And, she's super supportive and so much fun that we loved working with her. (We didn't even mind paying her commission!) This experience taught us a valuable lesson -- the listing broker DOES matter. Prior to this, we figured it didn't matter who listed our home -- that person most likely wouldn't be the one to sell it. But, we were so wrong. Despite the fact that Sari was just the listing broker, we attribute the sale of our home to her. She was absolutely amazing, and we're so grateful for her efforts on our behalf.

ZillowVERIFIEDWe were so fortunate to have found Sari as our realtor, especially during Covid. Being NYC residents, we were completely new to the area of northern Westchester with only surface-level (google-based) knowledge of school districts, train paths, community, diversity, and overall owning a home in the northeast. Sari was and continues to be a wealth of knowledge. She is truly an expert in the area, having lived here for over a decade. Unlike many other realtors, she is extremely matter-of-fact and not pushy about properties you aren't excited about. She pointed out the flaws alongside the plus points of every house we saw. We have bought and sold homes before, but she was such a breath of fresh air to the typically stressful process. She helped us navigate around some really tough roadblocks and always offered a helping hand. She shared great contacts and recommendations for everyone you need in the entire process! What came free is a slew of amazing recommendations for our home renovation and maintenance as well ;). Many realtors will appear friendly, but Sari is genuinely nice. What else could one ask for in a realtor?! TL;DR: She is AMAZING!!! :)

ZillowVERIFIEDWere so happy Sari was recommended to represent us for our home purchase. We appreciated her frankness in pointing out flaws in the properties we looked at so that we could focus on how we felt about each listing. She fought for us every step of the way in our complicated path to homeownership, and provided amazing recommendations for everything from a handyman to daycare centers near our new home. She even gave us (and our toddler) a lovely housewarming gift upon closing! Were so grateful to Sari, and would recommend to anyone looking to buy in Northern Westchester!

ZillowVERIFIEDI cannot praise Sari enough; she helped us buy our dream house remotely while we were in California and unable to travel due to Covid. Her guidance was exactly what we needed in all phases of the buying process. She:1. expertly helped us establish a list of candidate houses to focus on, pruning out ones that looked promising on Zillow but were unsuitable in reality,2. patiently did virtual walkthroughs*,3. listened to our needs and offered invaluable advice on issues she saw that disqualified houses,4. provided excellent suggestions for a home inspector, mortgage lender, and house cleaner,5. helped us ready the house (remotely) so that we could drive to it directly from California **.Her advice in the negotiation phase was beyond helpful and deserves its own pargraph; we would not have this home without her. She helped us win our home over numerous other competing offers in an extremely competitive sellers' market in Chappaqua. Her communication with the sellers' agent / sellers was clear, timely, and always on point. She helped us read between the lines and clearly delineated which actions we needed to take in order to win our bidding war. In the end, her tireless efforts helped us win our top choice; this was the first house we bid on in Chappaqua!Now that we are living in our new house, I can confidently say that the three things we got absolutely correct in this journey are1. using Sari as our our agent,2. deciding to take the leap to move out of our tiny apartment, and3. the house itself.My parents will be buying a house near us once Covid is over, and I will strongly reccomend her to them.* Having dealt with multiple agents throughout the country, I was always impressed by Sari's adeptness at using her phone and that it was always charged. ** It is hard to put into words how happy we were to conclude our drive across the country (we decided to avoid flying during the fall Covid spike) with our magnificent new home.

ZillowVERIFIEDSari Shaw took the time to get to know my family and I while we were searching for our home in Westchester. This was our first home and we were moving from NYC so working with an agent with lots of local knowledge was pivotal. Sari listened carefully to our preferences and scheduled viewings based on our likes and dislikes. We appreciated Saris low-key style. When we viewed properties, Sari gave us ample time to privately explore and talk without pressure. She genuinely wanted to get us into a property that would meet our needs. When we were ready to make an offer on a property, Sari was a skillful yet realistic negotiator. We are thrilled with the property we purchased and grateful to Sari for leading us to it. We unequivocally recommend Sari Shaw to buyers looking for properties in Westchester County.
