Julie has been wonderful from the start of our search for an apartment in Rhinebeck. She was able…read moreto find us the perfect place for our son while he attends school nearby and also for us to use on the weekends. She was professional, attentive, and knowledgeable. She showed us an apartment that was not even on the market yet- and its perfect- just like she said. She knows the area inside and out and we feel so comfortable that she lives nearby. We've been up a couple of times to measure and look at the place before we move in and she has met us without hesitation each time.

Julie from Mainly Rentals may not be your cushy cup of tea. She is hard core, authentic and real…read more She tells it like it is. Kind of refreshing. But at the end of the day this woman knows her stuff. There is no one like her in the Hudson Valley. She is beyond intelligent and beyond connected. At the age of 55, I decided to relocate from Long Island and pursue my Masters Degree. After dealing with numerous realtors and seeing a lot of less than par rental properties, Julie came through in an unbelievable way. She showed me the most beautiful home that was not even on the market yet because she is that connected. She walked me through my transition and I am so grateful. Today I live in one of THE most beautiful homes in Red Hook because of her. She told me from the beginning, do not worry, I got you. And she did. Thank you Julie for helping me live my dream. Skylar

Our experience with Paul and his staff couldn't have been nicer or more professional. His knowledge…read moreof the area real estate market is excellent (he has been in the business for over 30 years). The staff is efficient and friendly. Our appointments have always been on time. Everything that we were told they would do for us, they did. All on time, and with no surprises. From our experience, it is difficult to imagine how anyone could say anything else but "great job!" So if you are looking for one of the best realtors, I would high recommend Paul Hallenbeck.

I had a terrible experience with this agency both as a tenant and as a potential buyer. I flew all…read morethe way to New York from New Mexico to look at rental properties and had specifically asked my realtor Patricia to check them out first since I was spending so much money on airfare and hotels. She didn't bother doing this and all the rentals she showed me were dumps...$2000 down the drain. I finally rented a place that was Hallenbeck's own listing but they had lied to me about the neighborhood and I ended up in an unsafe situation, having to call the police more than once. The agency refused to let me out of the lease so I had to hire an attorney. $750 realtor fee down the drain plus legal fees. The money was nothing compared to the stress. RUN AWAY

Stay far away from any property managed by Young Property Management. They recently deleted their…read moreGoogle My Business listing, which had a 1 star rating, so here we go Yelp. In my 3 years living in their building in Rhinebeck I have witnessed drug overdoses happening in front of children, experienced multiple break-ins to my apartment with robbery, mailboxes have been broken into and mail has been stolen. When this was brought to the attention of Nat (operations manager), he ignored my emails for weeks. When he finally did acknowledge it, he could not have cared less. Simply said, "Get a camera." My stove has been broken for 2 years. The door to the oven does not shut, so i have to wedge it closed in order to cook. The entire control panel is burnt to a crisp as the door does not close completely. This is a fire hazard, but he still will not replace the oven. Nat is a prolific liar, and 2 years ago, he told me an oven had been ordered and would be delivered within a week. 2 years later, I let him know the oven was a fire hazard and needed to be replaced. Once again, he lied and said it was going to be delivered within a week. That was 2 months ago. I speak with a neighbor regularly who drives a taxi in town who has never had a working stove since moving in 2 years ago. He has never been able to cook for himself in his apartment. I feel fortunate compared to that. Nat told him to get a hot plate. Can you imagine the arrogant cavalier attitude when tenants can't even cook food? Also, even when a huge tree comes down in the yard, nothing is done. See the photos for evidence of all my claims. Last but not least, the creepy old man who lives in the house next door stalks around our building within 3 feet of the perimeter like some kind of peeping-Tom. He also regularly comes and sits on our front porch. I told Nat about it, and his response was, "There is nothing in the lease about where tenants can and can not sit. So, according to Nat, creepy old dudes can stalk around your home and look into your windows whenever they want. No big deal. This is what happens when the owner inherited the business, a spoiled rich kid with no discernable talent of his own. His reputation around Rhinebeck is that of a slumlord. I ignored the warnings when I moved here in 2021. Don't make the same mistake.

It started immediately, with fantastic photography, creative marketing, and perfect branding of the home. The professionalism and mindfulness to details was like no other realtor we have dealt with.

I highly recommend Alexis when buying or selling a home for the professionalism and experience that made the difference.

Their disrespect and unwarranted nastiness is truly despicable. And this Nick owner sounds like a disgusting individual you would never want to do business with regardless of how attractive the offer. Stay away.
