Patrick, Thanks to you, we are now settling in and beginning to enjoy our new home and we truly…read moreappreciate everything you have done to get us to the point we are at now. We would like to thank you by providing our testimonial based on our experiences working with you and hope that other buyers will connect with you, as we did. It was during the pandemic that we started to look for our buyer agent. We listed up several candidates using Yelp and other platforms. We had done interviews with all of them, and we decided to work with Patrick because we felt comfortable talking with him during the interview. His knowledge of the business and his testimonials were standing out from all the others. When we started to visit homes with Patrick. he always arranged appointments for us to visit the new listings as soon as they came to market, he responds quickly to our requests  - you will know that he is a responsible hard-working professional when you see his emails responded at 2:00am and late-night conversations. As everyone says - he never pushed us to make a decision moving forward. Instead, he pointed out noticeable issues he found with each home. It was well assuring to know Patrick wanted to educate us on the home buying process and he never once tried to up-sell us on any home we previewed. It took several months for us to find that perfect home. Patrick always asked us for our feedback so he can be clear on what we are looking for. He just waited for us to comfortably make our decision to moving forward. Patrick mentioned we will know when the right house feels like home. He was right! When our dream home came on the market, Patrick's strategy came into play. He set the appointment to get us in the next morning.  We were in a very good position being the first ones in the door. Patrick's personality easily established a relationship with the listing agent and right before our eyes they both hit it off. It was magical! My family and I loved this home the moment we walked in the door. Patrick advised us to submit the right offer knowing other offers will soon follow, and they did. This was critical especially if you know how the market was competitive at the time with very low inventory. As a result, the seller chose our offer we were able to get into the attorney review phase quickly, even with several other competitive offers the seller received. During the contract phase, we were helped with Patrick's advice and referrals for all the professionals and service providers needed to close the deal. I shopped for the service providers by myself, but literally, ended up using all that Patrick had suggested. On the closing day, Patrick, my wife, and I went for the walkthrough and we took a picture together in the front of the house - it was our happy moment! As first-time homebuyers, our experience went extremely smooth and easy. We had a very reliable agent that guided us through the process from the home searching until the closing, and we carefully listened to all of his advice and suggestions. We are so happy that we were able to buy a home that we truly love, even in an extremely difficult market situation, and sincerely believe without Patrick this would not be achieved. Our experience with Patrick Baratta proved that the testimonials we saw online were true, or in our case, it was even more. Thank you so much Patrick!, You Are The Best! Yuichiro and Family

We worked with Patrick Baratta to purchase our home in Cresskill. Patrick is the ultimate real…read moreestate professional. He helped us every step of the way from the moment we met him at the open house all the way through closing. Patrick went above and beyond to ensure that we were happy and that everything was going smoothly. Patrick answered any questions we had at ANY time and he was a great advocate for us with our purchase. Patrick also made great recommendations with a real estate attorney and mortgage provider. We were able to lock in a very competitive rate on our mortgage. Patrick advised us on everything to look for during the home inspection process and has a series of individual inspectors that were beneficial to us. When several issues were discovered during the home inspection and the appraisal process, Patrick was instrumental in getting us estimates and a seller's credit at closing to cover the repairs. When sellers were tardy on town inspection issues, Patrick stepped in and brought us back on track to meet our closing date. Patrick is extremely knowledgeable, resourceful and has a great attitude. We cannot recommend him enough to anybody looking to sell or buy a home.

My wife and I were coming out of Manhattan to look at homes and Andrew always made himself available whenever we saw a listing we were interested in. There was never a delay in response, which was crucial in this current market. Moreover, he never showed us anything that was a waste of time and listened to exactly what we said we were looking for. He referred us to everyone we needed in order to close on a deal quickly and without any hiccups. Through Andrew, we had a lawyer, loan provider, inspector, etc. all lined up as we went through each stage of the process. Moreover, he advised on all aspects of the offer package and provided it all to the seller the same day. Andrew's resources and fast acting was a huge part of getting the house we wanted in this highly competitive COVID suburban market.

If I could give 10 stars for realtor John Rota, I would! John is amazing...he is intelligent,…read morehard-working, kind, funny and has an attention to detail that is unlike anything I've seen. I am sitting in my dream house right now because of him! We had been looking at Westchester County properties for about 1.5 years with another realtor and were really frustrated. Either the homes were not anything like we had asked to see, or when we saw something we liked, we would find out it already had another accepted offer or was going into short sale. Finally a girlfriend of mine reached out to me and said she had used John and really loved him and she thought we should give him a shot. I told her we had determined we were going to be lifelong renters and weren't really interested, but would give him a call. I could tell from our first phone call that he was ON IT and was going to be just what we needed. That was President's Day weekend and by Memorial Day weekend, we had closed on our dream home and I couldn't be happier. The house has brought such happiness to our kids and I can't explain how much joy that brings me. Do not hesitate to use John! He also has a network of people that are great...attorneys, loan folks...so everything is super seamless. (You can use whomever you want...I just had asked him for recommendations since we're new to the area.) Thank you John! As our 5-year old says, "Mommy, I really love our home."

The agent was helpful and very friendly but unfortunately they use the National Tenants Network…read more(NTN) franchise to screen applicants for rentals. You have to complete an NTN application for a specific rental so if you are applying for more than one rental, you have to complete a form each time. You pay $39 per application and that is for each person living in the rental. While I was completing NTN's online application, I got a code error message a few times on some of the fields, meant for their webmaster. When my application report was sent to the realtor, it turns out NTN made a mistake (my monthly income was indicated at an amount I hadn't entered anywhere on the form - and it was FAR greater than my actual income which made it all look fishy). I had no access to my report before it was sent to the realtor to make sure it was correct. Trying to get it changed was a nightmare. NTN requires you to print an application to access your own report, attach more personal ID verification, mail it to them, and then they'll let you know within 14 days if you're eligible for a copy of your report. I actually talked to a lawyer. I had an IT technician look at the code errors I screenshot while filling out my form and she said NTN was using Cold Fushion by Macromedia which was about 11 years out of date. Now I'm worried that NTN has my SSN in this Cold Fushion database. My advice as a prospective renter is to avoid this real estate firm simply because they use NTN.
