Where to start?…read more First of all, Elyse Harney Real Estate has an amazing reputation in the tri-state (NY, CT, MA) area. So naturally, they were the first (and only) real estate firm I called to list my house in Millerton, NY (and no, not a million or multi-million dollar home). Obviously, like anything, it depends on the agent you get and I was fortunate enough to get Tracy Macgowan. Tracy is like no other real estate agent I have ever worked with (and I've had many in both NY and California). Tracy went out of her way to calm my nerves and worries. Tracy is incredibly knowledgeable about the market and even suggested a higher price than I thought, and we got the price she suggested! Tracy is very communicative which I absolutely appreciate. And best of all Tracy is a fantastic negotiator. Honestly, I cannot say enough about how amazing she is. As long as I am alive and in the area Tracy will be my real estate agent (and friend).

Brian and his team have become my eyes and ears when I'm not there, handling everything from routine checks to coordinating maintenance and making sure the property is always in top shape. What I appreciate most is the communication and transparency. I get updates, photos, and quick responses to any questions, which gives me real peace of mind even when I'm hours away. They've gone above and beyond more than once--catching small issues before they became expensive problems, being present for service appointments, and checking on the home after storms without me even asking. It's rare to find a team that treats your home like their own, but that's exactly how Brian operates. Owning a second home can easily become stressful, but with Hudson Valley Select Properties, it's been the opposite--I actually get to enjoy my home instead of worrying about it. Oh, and they're family owned and are natives to the area. Love supporting small and local when I can. Highly recommend for any second homeowners in the Hudson Valley.

We knew a small amount about the home buying process in New York being that our last home was bought in Vermont, but Blake helped us through the entire process. Everything went so smoothly! Within 2 weeks we had a seller accept our offer on an highly desirable home. We truly think that Blake's experience and recognition as a top real estate agent throughout the Hudson Valley helped us seal the deal and made us more desirable as a buyer. Blake explained everything to us throughout the process and was always available for any questions. His experience and knowledge of real estate is unmatched in this market. We have already recommended Blake to friends and will without hesitation use Blake in the future. Thank you Blake!!!

She went above and beyond to help us find the right place and was ever so patient with all of our requests and questions which was particularly helpful as first time home buyers. It was also so helpful, given we were new to the area, to have an agent who was from the area as she was able to give us many different recommendations to choose from for local vendors to work on the house. I literally can't say enough good things.

We cannot recommend Stefan and his company highly enough. We found him from a personal…read morerecommendation and as first-time homebuyers, we felt incredibly fortunate to have him in our corner from start to finish. From the moment we met him, he put us at ease with his friendly demeanor, great sense of humor, and deep knowledge of the local market -- the kind of insight that only comes from decades of living and working in the area and raising a family here himself. What sets him apart is his calm, no-pressure approach. He's not in sales mode -- he's in "what do you actually need?" mode. His transparency and patience made the process feel manageable, even when things got complicated. When touring homes, he immediately pointed out issues and considerations -- many of which our professional inspector later confirmed -- thanks to his personal experience renovating properties and his incredibly sharp eye. After touring a number of properties with Stefan, we put in an offer when we saw a home that was a great fit for our family and, thanks to his strategic advice, we won against two higher competing offers. That advice alone was worth its weight in gold. From there, he guided us through every step of the process with clarity, responsiveness, and good humor. We always felt like we were in good hands. We are big fans of Stefan, will definitely go to him in future if we are buying or selling -- and now, grateful homeowners.
