Lisa Grassia is one of the most pleasant individuals I have ever had the opportunity to work with. She is the definition of what a buyer's rep should be - a great listener, knowledgeable, an expert in the field, always reachable, and genuinely concerned about your journey as a homebuyer. I wouldn't just recommend Lisa Grassia to anyone buying a home, I insist that you contact her. She will make it happen!
If my husband and I did not have Lisa representing us through our first home buying process, I honestly do not think we would have made it through. My advice for anyone purchasing a home for the first time is to get yourself a buyer's representative and a damn good one like Lisa. This process is not easy and you need someone like Lisa, who knows what she is doing and will get you to the finish line. She will find you a home, a lawyer, a good accountant, even a good painter. There is nothing this woman cannot do and she does it all with a reassuring smile on her face and a great sense of humor and positivity.
From my first meeting with Lisa until the closing on our co-op, I felt 100% supported by her. She never made me or my husband feel like we were asking too many questions. She would go out of her way to make sure we got the right answer for everything, even if it meant that she had to pull in several different parties to get that answer. She is an excellent communicator, especially with e-mail. E-mails sent in the wee hours of the night or early in the morning would receive a response regardless of what the question was. Lisa will never leave you wondering if she got your e-mail, phone call or text. You can always count on her to close the loop.
There were times in the co-op buying process when we wanted to give up because of all the tedious paperwork and roadblocks that came up in the months-long process, but with the help of Lisa, we were able to make the home buying process a success. Anytime we felt unsure of what we were supposed to be doing/if we should be doing something/how to do something, a quick call or e-mail to Lisa would help us get back on track.
Buying a home involves a lot of patience and the belief that in the end, it will all work out. I cannot tell you how many times Lisa would reassure my husband and I that even though there was work to be done, she would help us and do everything necessary to help us get our property. She makes recommendations and is never pushy. Lisa has the ability to set realistic expectations and follows through on her promises which are two qualities that make her as amazing as she is.
There is really something special about how Lisa conducts business. She is in-tune with how you are feeling in the home buying process and will make sure that she is always on the same page with you. Everything that she does is very personalized and thoughtful. It really was the little things that made me appreciate Lisa's work. The personal touches of the goody bag that she brought to our closing and the generous gift for our new home are just examples of why she is so special, in addition to her abilities as a broker/buyer's rep. I cannot say enough about how pleased I am that we found Lisa and would highly recommend her to anyone. Thank you Lisa for everything, you are one of a kind! read more
