As a licensed real estate agent in the State of New York, I feel terrible that the above-written review might deter others from using Helen Schweitzer Realty. I have been dealing with Ms. Schweitzer on a transaction and have found her to be an excellent representative for her client: concerned, detailed, polite and professional. I am usually critical of my peers, but find no faults with Ms. Schweitzer. I think the majority of the criticism from Taste of V. is an assumption that the listing of his/her property caused building authorities to inspect a neighbor, but real estate agents find no benefit to causing problems in the neighborhood. As for pricing, it is a commonly accepted business practice to reduce the price on a home at regular intervals if the house is not receiving offers. So, if you have been considering Helen Schweitzer Realty, give them a call and see how YOU feel and do not rely on ONE review from someone judging them on criteria that is not that which one should be using to determine if any agent is competent. Personally, my experience as a cooperating agent has been excellent and that is something that I do not always experience when dealing with out of area agents. read more
