Your wisdom, manner, and compassion overwhelmed me, and ended up with a sale, in an almost impossible market, and I ended up with new friends to boot!!! Thank you all so very, very much, and may G-d bless you with love, health, and peace of mind."

" I was treated like family from the very begining, and informed of progress every step of the way!!! During some terrible weather, the Orly Teams went and checked on the house for sale several times, without me even asking!!! UNREAL COMPASSION!!!!!"

"Dear Orly,

Thanks for the professional sale of our house. From the day of your initial presentation, all the way through the closing, there were no "surprises" and the whole process ran like expected. All of this while in the midst of the housing crisis is, for me, a very strong indication that you and your team know the market and are able to find the right buyers. I would certainly recommed anyone in Ringwood to use your services! "

""We first hired Orly in 1996 but ended up buying a house in a neighboring county. She did such an impression on us that we hired her again in 2003 while we were living in Brazil and needed to buy a house in anticipation of our return to the USA. Orly did an excellent job at showing us all the alternatives and helped us negotiate with a national builder for a new construction. She has continued to assist us in recent years, including this year when I successfully appealed the 2008 property valuation and resulting property taxes with the town. We consider her to be THE expert where we live, always ready to assist her customers beyond the call of duty."

"Hi Orly,

We have been so extremely pleased with the progress of our house sale and purchase. It has been an experience we have had with any other real estate agency. We really feel like you (Orly, Carol and Noreen) are totally on our team, cheering us onward with the backing of a very well organized and specialized organization managing and negotiating our sale and purchase."

"Words can't truly express our gratitude for the management, guidance and direcition you gave in the successful sale and purchase of our homes. As you know, we went about selecting a real estate agent and agency very carefully, interviewing several agents prior to selecting you and your agency. From your first market analysis of our house, to the final closing negotiations, you were totally available and supportive in every possible way - your skillfull negotiations and tactful manner were crucial to success in tricky situations.

We have never seen a specialized real estate office, and were so impressed at how well organized your team is. We especially want to thank you for selecting Carol Conger as our purchase specialist and Noreen as your administrative assistant. Your teamwork was seamiess as you all pulled together to sell our existing house and for the purchase of our dream house.

This is an especially important tribute to you and your team in this difficult financiail market, as our house went under contract only after being on the market for five days.

We feel so fortunate to have had you and Carol help negotiate the purchase of our "dream house". I am sitting at our new house that we have lived in for one week, still in awe of the work it took to get us here. Thank you is just too small a phrase to let you know how grateful we are to be here. Even our gift of having the overgrown lawn trimmed prior to our move was such a symbol of how you oversee every detail to make transitions comfortable.

Thank you once again for your exceptional professionalism and warmth that made living in our dream house possible."

"Orly,

Your advice and recommendations were always on target with what the housing market was doing, even though they were not necessarily what we always wanted to hear. You were our voice of reason through a very emotional time. I must also mention how happy we were to have had the pleasure of working with Noreen and Carol. Noreen specifically talked me out of worrying myself sick several times as we ran into hurdles in our home sale. She smoothed out whatever bumps in the road that she could and put the other ones in perpective for me in my strained emotional state! I felt like I truly had an ally no matter what problems came at us. Carol was endlessly understanding as our prospects for a new home ultimately changed from a purchase to a rental. She helped guide us in our home search and took us to see the houses we wanted, as well as, others we might not have found. I would have loved to been able to make a purchase just to earn her commission that she so well deserved! Hopefully we will be able to repay all of her favors in the future. Nick and I want to thank you again, and wish you and everyone in your office a wonderful holiday season. Rest assured, when we are ready to buy again you will be the first realtor we call!!"

Sincerely,
   

Dawn Altieri

"To Whom it may Concern,

Hello, I am writing today to acknowledge the absolute incredible experience that I had using Coldwell Banker Realty of Ringwood for my recent house purchase. In particular, I am referring to the exemplary services of my buyers agent, Carol Conger. It has been quite a journey for me lasting 20 months, and I don't think I would have made it without her direction, guidance and support. I know other agents would have given up on me somewhere along the way, but she stuck in there for the duration and I believe that she deserves quite a commendation for that. Let's just say I can be difficult at best. Carol was always available and would always work with my haphazard schedule. Being a first-time home buyer I was very cautious and wanted to proceed slowly, and she was very accomodating. Never once did I feel like I was ever being "sold" or persuaded to like a particular property. She had the information that I needed, when I needed it. I could not have pictured a better buying experience.

In closing, I know that I will be recommending Orly, Carol, and their whole team to everyone I know that will be buying of selling in their region. Thank you very much for your attention."
   

Greg Monchak - Homeowner

"I particularly appreciated how someone from your team was always available to let professionals into my home… You and your team allowed me to continue going about my life with only a few of the normal inconveniences of selling a home. I would also like to mention how grateful I am that nearly every (if not every) time I called your office, there was someone there to take my call who knew my home, my situation, and my statue."   

Gabrielle H.

"A big-hearted 'Thank You' for a job well-done! It's been a long and bumpy road to close our deal. Your patience, understanding and great sense of humor got us all through this very exciting time! Thanks for all your help-you've been great!"

Elena S. & Bill B.

"The simple touches like address labels, Forget-Me-Nots, and phone calls made my friends jealous with envy at the attention my real estate agent gave us. We couldn't be happier having worked with professionals who provided nothing short of excellent service!"   

Michael and Cynthia

"Your depth of knowledge about the area's market was limitless. At times, your ability to understand my needs was better than I did myself! Your superb skill at negotiating excels as was evidenced by your clever, assertive, and tenacious strategies. Our goal was indeed net!"

"From beginning to end, you and your staff were professional and went above and beyond the call of duty to assure that our home was sold and to keep us informed of the progress. From marketing, showing, and many Open Houses, you were able to assure us a maximum exposure and we are sure that is what led to our successful sale."   

Gordan & Kate M.

Lori and John

"Our entire working relationship was wonderful. You give 100% of yourself to your clients. We can't expect more!"   

Victoria C.

"Hi Orly,

Thanks for the info updates and web tips. Your updates were always interesting and at the same time scary - we can only imagine where we'd be if we hadn't crossed paths with you in late 2007. Your hard talk initially was a bit of a rude awakening and surely tough medicine... but in the end your recommendation was dead on. You produced results, got the sale, and we were able to move on with your lives! While we took a tremendous hit finacially, it could've been much much worse, especially if we were forced to carry the Wanaque property into 2008. Hopefully this tough cycle will end soon, but in the interim, whether good times or bad, we'd be happy to recommend your sage and professional approach to real estate to anyone at anytime!

We hope your holidays were fun and safe. and we wish you a happy, healthy and prosperous New Year in 2009.

All the best,
   

Rob & Collette

"Thanks to you, I am getting settled in my new home, and it's wonderful! The process of buying my home was a great experience, thanks to you and your staff. Your professionalism, knowledge, genuine concern, understanding, and patience made the home buying process a smooth transaction. You were exceptional, and will be highly recommended! Being a phone call away was a great comfort when I had questions or concerns. Having you at the closing was a great comfort. I appreciate the fact that you were always looking out for my benefit. Thank you for helping me find my new home!"   

Gina C.

"You were with us when things looked bleak and you were with us when things were going well. You were also with us in between, when there were more practical matters to handle, or we just had a question, or needed to talk. Furthermore, you did all this with professionalism, warmth, cheeriness and creativity. It's been a pleasure working with you, Orly. You are a credit to your profession and an inspiration as a person."
