She offered helpful advice and was always available throughout the process. Her years of real estate experience in this area made her a valuable asset for us in our house hunt. I would highly recommend Laura and Purdy realty to anyone looking to buy a house in the Capital Region.

As a buyer of land listed by purdy realty , I was disappointed in the cooperation of the realtor. I…read morehad a signed agreement with the seller before it was listed in the MLS. I asked the realtor to not list it and she refused my request . Property was put in MLS and out of 5 pics posted not one was of the land !! ( not very knowledgeable of their listings) Also can't say it's for sure, maybe a coincidence, but since the listing went in MLS some personal property was stolen from the land. Plus had to resign a form, because realtor gave me the wrong one originally I got the impression from them that it was "all about the money" and unique personal requests weren't a consideration. Be careful if you list or buy from them !!!!!

Greta was fantastic!…read more I was a first time home owner and in another state but that didn't stop her from helping me find a local Realtor that eventually lead to my first home. I couldn't have done it without Greta's help. Even though she wasn't our primary Realtor she made sure to check in and make sure we were happy with how things were going AND she answered a million questions. It was as if she was there helping us! Not only that but she sent us a little note congratulating us when we finally closed. Our local Realtor didn't even do that! Greta was thoughtful, patient, and attentive throughout the whole process even though she was on the other side of the country. I would recommend her to anyone looking for a home anywhere in the US.

I was a first time homebuyer in California without an idea of how to start the home buying process…read more My roommate, Ann M. suggested I talk with her mom, Greta, about what I was looking for in a realtor and to help calm any fears that I had (and I had a lot of them!) with regards to the whole home buying process. Not only did Greta help calm my fears, but she was able to refer me to a wonderful, husband and wife team who helped me through many house tours, many nail biting nights of being afraid to take the plunge into home ownership, and eventually, home ownership! I really owe Greta a lot of thanks for listening to me and finding me the perfect realtor. Recently, I've referred another friend of mine to Greta for a referral for a realtor and I know that based on my experience with Greta, the realtor she will be referred to will be a perfect fit for her.

Which was a picnic compared to how bad he was at selling; we ended up selling for 20% less than what we paid.

It's sold! We listed…read moreour house with Julie and Patrick after doing some extensive research on realtors and having sit down meetings with our three top choices. And without a doubt, they were the right realtors for us. More than anything, we needed someone to hold our hands through the process of selling our first house. I think it was Julie who said the experience was more like a marathon than a sprint. One of the things that we found the most appealing were the duo's stats. The ratio of sales price to asking price, and the average time of their listings on market, were fantastic. But what is it they always say? Past results aren't a guarantee of future success? It took a little bit longer, and we didn't quite get as much for the house as we had hoped. But there were a lot of unexpected bumps along the road. Like a tree falling onto the house, and puncturing a hole in the roof, while it was on the market. But Patrick and Julie were always a reassuring voice of calm. Plus, they were able to connect us with people who could help shore up the house to get it ready for going on the market, even when our long time handyman wasn't able to get us onto his schedule. While part of me wishes the couple might have been more aggressive at marketing the property, I don't regret the decision to pass on the more aggressive agent we considered for the listing. With an impending move on the horizon, and the inherently stressful proposition of selling one's most valuable asset, the calm and peaceful disposition of McSharry and Associates was just what we needed. Thanks again to Julie and Patrick for working with us, and even answering our questions after the sale was complete. They never doubted that it would turn out okay in the end. And indeed, it did. Plus, they donate a portion of their commission to a local charity of the seller's choice, which is just the icing on top of the cake. So not only did we sell our house, but hopefully we did a little something to help combat food insecurity within the Capital District.

I was incredibly stressed trying to do this on my own because I didn't yet live in the area and it was difficult to navigate through all of the scams online. As soon as I contacted Alyssa, I was so relieved. She sent me tons of listings that matched my search criteria and went to any house I was interested in and made videos for me since I couldn't be there to tour the homes. I was amazed at how quickly she was able to make all of this happen. She would make videos for me in less than a day and answered late night and early morning texts. In a little over a week, we were signing a lease on a house that we love. There is no way I could have found such a great place without her. I'll probably be looking to buy a house in the next year or two and I plan on calling Alyssa again when I'm looking to buy. She's amazing and I highly recommend her to anyone looking for an honest and efficient agent to help with any real estate needs. She really took the time to get to know what we wanted and made sure we got a place that we loved. I had a great experience working with Lori Schindler Real Estate.

Her level of professionalism, responsiveness, and attention to detail are unmatched. She's also just an absolute delight to work with and took the time to really get to know us and our needs in order to find the perfect home for our family. Every step of the way, she kept us informed and prepared so nothing fell through the cracks. Everyone she recommended was outstanding and affordable as well and we ended up choosing from her recommended lists for our lender, real estate attorney, and inspector. They also all spoke highly of her, only further confirming how right we were in choosing her! We had met with several realtors in the capital region before making our final decision and not even a few minutes into that initial scoping call, I could just tell that Rebekah was the right fit for us. She truly goes to bat for her clients while ensuring that all offers, negotiations, and correspondence with other parties in the transaction are fair. Through the entire process of touring, making offers, and then while under contract, we always felt like we were in good hands. She was always one step ahead ensuring that all the right pieces were falling into place and was always there to reassure and help problem solve any time we had any concerns. I highly recommend her for your next home purchase! Thank you so much Rebekah for helping us find our forever home and making it feel so effortless compared to all of our previous home purchases and sales. You are THE BEST!

In my opinion, the way my transaction was handled felt dishonest, unprofessional, and completely lacking transparency. I left the process feeling misled and taken advantage of. Communication was inconsistent, important details were not disclosed, and the overall experience caused me significant frustration and financial concern. I would never buy or sell a property with this company again. I believe their practices should be looked into by the state for possible violations. This was my personal experience, and I hope it helps others make an informed decision.

That was a question that was NEVER asked by Joanne, and we had no idea to would be an issue because we have never tried to buy a home before and were relying on her expertise. We lost over $8000 because we paid for all the engineers and estimates that Joanne told us we needed. That's $8000 we can never get back OR use toward another purchase or build...... The real punch in the gut?? When we were treated as if this was something we should have known or disclosed and it was OUR fault. We handed over everything they asked for, filled out all the paper work asked, did EVERYTHING they asked us to, only to have them treat us as if WE did something wrong. The only thing we did wrong was relying on this company. OH! And let's not forget the bill we later received from them....... even though we couldn't obtain a mortgage to buy/renovate our home...... and were already out over 8 grand......real nice..... my recommendation? Go somewhere else. They were very nice at first..... until things went wrong.
