After being pretty frustrated with home/land shopping for almost a year, I was listening to Vox Pop…read moreon NPR one afternoon and heard Renata giving advice to home buyers and sellers on the program. I called in and vented my frustrations and Renata suggested I do some of the smaller footwork on my own. After a few weeks and still no help from the "family friend" real estate agent I decided to call Renata and see if she could help. After answering a few questions she wanted to meet in person and go over what I was looking for. We setup a meeting and went over budget, location, and pretty much hashed out all the things I was looking for. She put me in touch with a lender she recommended and within a week we were looking at properties. Fast forward a few months and we closed in a house December of last year. Renata was very knowledgeable and always available if I had a question or concern about anything. The closing process was smooth and painless!

In response to Lorenzo's reply:…read more Yes, you are correct, Lorenzo. My expectation as a buyer was that I was getting an "A Team" of support and guidance. Being that we were not from around here, we were going off of your professional recommendations. My mistake. Now I know "A Team" in the capital region is the equivalent to "C Team" in the market I am coming from. Additionally, I really appreciate hearing from your broker, having a long conversation about how you all can make it up to us, to never hear a word back. Wonderful customer service!

The grounds are kept clean 2. Maintenance is super friendly and do the best they can within their means. 3. Plenty of parking The negatives: 1. Mouse issue: major concerns are ignored. I caught several and found piles of mouse droppings. I requested help for a year little to no response. My apartment is VERY clean, I had to leave my utensils in the dishwasher and all food basically out of reach. 2. They pick and choose who's worthy of all new appliances when moving in. I received a refrigerator loaded with mouse droppings. 3. My door number wasn't visible the door paint chipping and stripping broken. My packages delivered to the wrong address. When I asked I was told to put in a work order, I did and nothing, however they painted doors for tenants moving in after me and gave them new numbers. 4. During Covid I got a noise complaint one email and a few days later a letter with eviction terminology. I have two athletic kids and covid just started. The landlord sided with her long term tenants immediately even asked if she could speak to my children. I have to say that was a huge insult i found myself justifying my parenting by saying wait my oldest child is a doctor, behavior is so important to me. I almost lived at my moms house to avoid complaints as the kids adjusted to covid all while still paying my rent on time. 4. They force their way in your apartment if they want things done on their time frame even when it's non emergency. 5. Inside of the apartment isn't updated outdated everything. 6. Air conditioning outside was sparking with fire flames! Because of the way things are patched and half fixed this is SCARY! 7. Last I would not recommend to ANY African Americans, pre-judgements and differential treatment is obvious. Again I wanted to like this place and I think it certainly has potential with new non bias management. Don't expect luxury living. Their kindness diminishes after you move in, they seem bothered. The owner obviously has no concern for things being done fairly. I now understand the high turnover and get the two months free rent offer for longer leases. I truly do not recommend this complex. Especially to African Americans. Clearly an obvious bias by Christine who manages the property. I've been with them 3 years after I sold my home and it's been horrible! Again I was clean and paid on time! STAY AWAY!

I recently hired an agent from Gucciardo Real Estate Group, Guiseppe Tropiano, to sell my house in…read moreAlbany and had an absolutely terrible experience with him. He disregarded all of my requests and broke clear agreements which had been made before hiring him. He was aggressive and applied maximum pressure and threats to get his way, which a sales price far below the true market price. He was only after a quick buck without doing any work. Beware of this guy. Do not trust him. A company is only as good as the people they hire and Guiseppe's behavior is a reflection of the culture of Gucciardo Real Estate Group. You have been warned. This is a true review from an actual verified customer.

It's been almost a year now and the quality of the work is excellent - zero issues with any of it which is a major relief. The detail work he did is stellar - I am still noticing things he took care of without us having to ask. He worked really quickly too which was helpful since the epicenter of our home was completely torn apart. He ALSO found and fixed some MAJOR problems without adding very much to the over all cost of the project which was very, very kind, something most other contractors would have taken advantage of. The last thing I will say is that the weekend before we were set to start the renovation, I severely broke my ankle. I was sending notes and sketches to Cole from my hospital bed and he was unbelievably patient, kind, and open to whatever we wanted to do and made sure he had what we wanted just right. He was easy to work with and made sure we were happy with every single decision. He also gave us great advice when we were considering a bad choice for materials or design. I seriously cannot recommend him enough, Cole is a great contractor, does excellent and HONEST work. He's busy but if you can get on his calendar, I promise you will not be disappointed. 4,000,000/10 will hire him again (I am attaching photos - they aren't great images and don't do the job justice at ALL, but i tried)
