I am a first-time home buyer. I had no idea about the process whatsoever when I first started taking a look at homes, or what to expect throughout the process. The amount of effort and time Anzhela put into walking me through the process is unbelievable. From the first day that we met, she spent her entire evening walking me through the "big picture." From there on out, she was always available to provide me with the information that I needed (or didn't need, but needed for the sake of my sanity) - every decision that I made, small or big, mattered to her. Not only did I feel like I had all the information I need to make those decisions, but I also felt like I was in good hands. Especially because, as a first-time buyer, I didn't know all of the right questions I should be asking (or do's and don'ts, for example) and she would proactively provide this information, which made me feel like I was walking through this process with eyes wide open. From an expectations perspective, I don't know how Anzhela Staraya does it - and to the fault of everyone else I worked with - she set my expectations really high and not unrealistically high because she would meet them. Obviously, making an informed decision is the most important part of buying a home. But personally, as being "emotionally" invested as well in buying a home, having someone who properly set, managed, and came through with: expectations was such a lifesaver and made me feel so at ease throughout the entire process. And on a related note, as a first-time home buyer, I'm not sure what to expect, what's good/bad, etc., and she was always so candid and provided her own perspective of different aspects of each home that she thought would be relevant to my decision making based on what she had learned about me. I truly appreciated her input and relied on it heavily. This is an invaluable quality to have as a service provider and not everyone has it, but, it is crucial to keep those around that do. It's easy to push paper and get the signatures, but she is really focused on making sure people are satisfied through the process and with the outcome. Again, for a first-time home buyer, this process is very stressful. Yes, there are a number of things that people can do to make it easier. But as you can see, based on the above, Anzhela Staraya went above and beyond (as I'm positive she do with all of her clients) and truly made me feel like I had a confidant/partner throughout. Overall, I would strongly recommend Anzhela Staraya to anyone looking to buy or sell a home, especially if they are first-time homebuyers. I would trust her with my eyes closed and her attention to detail and level of time/dedication to her clients is outstanding. read more

We would like to thank Angela for all the hard work she did in helping us get our new house! She is a great professional and a wonderful human being. As new homebuyers there was a lot of grey area for us and in the beginning many things didn't make sense, so we had a loooot of questions to Angela. She answered our questions in a very detailed way which made the process so much easier and less complicated for us. She is very patient and very detail-oriented. What stroke us is that she is also very honest and during the search process she gave us a good advise on certain properties we saw - she wasn't trying to sell fast, but, rather, to sell well which is a win win for both of us. She mentioned it a couple of times that even though the market is hot and certain houses go fast you should always weigh all pros and cons since it's a major purchase (often once in a lifetime!). And this was what made her different from others who were mostly trying to push hard for the purchase no matter what. If you are looking for a quality Real Estate Angela dedicated to her work and to her clients, then you need to call her ASAP! She will answer all your questions, guide you in the right direction and make the search and purchase process seamless and enjoyable! Thank you Angela once again! read more

From day one of our interaction, Anzhela has been everything a homebuyer could ask for from an agent. From the very beginning, she took the time to truly understand what I was looking for and introduced me to the perfect apartment--right in the area I had hoped for and comfortably within my budget. As a first-time homebuyer, I was nervous and overwhelmed by the process. I wasn't fully prepared for the stress and complexity that comes with such a major purchase, but Anzhela guided me through each step with patience, professionalism, and confidence. She answered every question I had, no matter how small, and always made sure I felt informed and supported. Thanks to her expertise and dedication, what seemed like an intimidating process turned into an exciting and empowering experience. I'm incredibly proud to now call myself a homeowner, and I owe it all to Anzhela's hard work and care. If more real estate agents brought the same level of passion and commitment, I believe many more people would feel ready to take that important next step. I wholeheartedly recommend her to anyone thinking about buying a home--she's truly one of a kind. Thank you, Anzhela, for making this dream a reality! read more

Angela is just amazing and can work the magic for your property. I could not be happier with the purchase of my apartment back in 2008, so immediately called Angela when decided to sell it in 2021. While living in NJ, Angela took the whole process in her hands and found the handyman to make the necessary fixes and cleaning, so I didn't have to spend time on travel and taking care of it myself. The attorney Angela referred me to for the sale was incredible and at the end I couldn't be happier! You are my super star agent and I know who to reach out in the local market for the next real estate transaction. Thank you! read more

During the Covid-19 pandemic in one of the worst times in real estate sales history, Angela represented us for the sale of our mother's co-op apartment in Sheepshead Bay.

Once things opened up, she was relentless and had open houses almost weekly as well as many private showings. She has tremendous knowledge of the market, the neighborhood and valuations. She is Five Star in every way and we would not hesitate recommending Angela to anyone who wants positive results. read more

Wonderful experience with Angela as our broker. It was quite a journey with turns and twists, especially dealing with the coop board. Angela was always available to speak to, advise and console us showed great skills in navigating, negotiating with multiple law offices, co-op board and management companies.
