My mom recently went through the process of helping a friend find a home, and they worked directly with Denise. She was absolutely fabulous, as well as her whole team. If Denise was ever unavailable, I was provided immediate assistance from Lauren and Erin. Everyone there is so helpful, knowledgeable, and friendly. We closed on our first home ever with the help of the First World Mortgage team and our incredible realtor, Aimee Nieroda. They talked us through every step, answered every "dumb" question I had (they never treated me as if I was!) and got us into a good solid first home. I recommend any and all homeowners to work with them for an easy and smooth mortgage process.

I truly appreciated Brad's honesty and persistence during the loan process. Brad never made me feel that the loan would not go through and made it seem effortless even though there were many complexities on the way to the closing. I would recommend First World Mortgage and especially would recommend working with Brad Moore.

This review is specifically for Charles Woodin at Berkshire Hathaway…read more If you are looking for a real estate agent, Charles (Chuck) Woodin should be your pick. He is patient, kind, honest, and very realistic. He recently helped us find our home, and we could not have been more grateful for every minute he helped us. We were in a unique situation moving from across the country, limited with time to see houses and a short time frame to buy, but he was patient and walked us through every house we requested to see and really stressed that we should not buy a house based on pressure, but rather one we would call home.He answered all of our questions and if he did not know the answer he would find out and tell us quickly. He communicated with us through every step of the closing process and handled all the necessary tasks so that closing went smoothly. There was no pressure with him while looking at houses. He really wants you to be happy with your home purchase.

We felt confident as we walked through homes and he pointed out things we never would have noticed. He was also very patient with us when we had no idea what we were doing -- as first time homebuyers, this was very important to us. A lot of questions were asked and Evan never gave the impression that he was annoyed or sick of us (haha). Definitely would recommend if you're looking to buy or sell a home in the greater Hartford area!

Incredibly Competent! Great Experience! Best Real Estate Agent!…read more My wife and I were first-time homebuyers. Evan Berman came highly recommended by a colleague of ours. Given current market conditions and uncertainty caused by the pandemic, we weren't sure what the home buying process would look like but thank goodness we had Evan on our side. We couldn't have asked for a better agent. He made the home buying process as smooth as possible with zero hiccups. Evan is very professional, knowledgeable, thorough and very responsive. He answered every single question we had, and then some. He is genuinely caring and always advocated with our best interest at heart. He has great connections with local home contractors, which have come in very handy, especially for first-time homebuyers like us. I highly recommend Evan and the Broder Group team to anyone looking to buy a house. I would definitely work with Evan again!

I've been recommending Julie Corrado as a realtor over the past 10+ years to clients, friends, and…read morefamily members planning on selling or buying a home. Julie has a team of experts and licensed contractors that she works with closely who has always been a go-to for improvements made within my house until I sold recently. I have attended several of Julie's home buying and selling preparation seminars where she discusses "getting your home ready for a sale" and has benefitted highly from these sessions. I slowly improved the home that would produce the greatest return on investments to a potential buyer. This past Fall, I decided to sell my home after 13 years, and Julie sent over her staging team to make affordable recommendations and yield the best results. The house was listed in the Winter and was sold in less than 3 days. Working with Julie was like a partnership and a comfortable process. She educated me every step of the process and allowed me to make the decisions that positioned me to sell the home for $50K over what the last home sold on my street a few months prior. My home sold for a record high compared to other houses on the same street. I never felt the need to compromise or felt forced into settling - the offers were multiple. The Corrado Team and Julie's especially have developed an art and science about the process of selling a home effectively. I have great pride and feel a sense of comfort sending any future home buyers or sellers to her. I never have to follow through because her process is consistent, and the experience is long-term.

Anya from customer service no help. So I called nationwide myself to get my policy reinstated no help from adion at all.
