Robert was incredibly professional throughout the entire process.

As a first-time homebuyer, I had a lot of questions, and he was always knowledgeable and patient, making sure I understood every step along the way. He gave us great insight during offer negotiations, which made a huge difference and helped us feel confident in our decisions. He also had a strong understanding of the area, which was really valuable as we narrowed down where we wanted to buy. What stood out most was how responsive and reliable he was—quick to answer calls, texts, and emails, and always keeping things moving forward. He maintained a professional attitude from start to finish and truly had our best interests in mind the whole time. Robert stuck with us through the entire process and made what could have been stressful feel smooth and manageable. Overall, it was a great experience, and I’d highly recommend him to anyone looking to buy a home, especially first-time home buyers

We truly could not have asked for a better real estate agent than Maria.

Her track record speaks for itself, but after working with her personally, we understand why so many people trust her with such an important decision. Maria really listened to what we wanted and made us feel like she was genuinely invested in helping us get there. When something needed attention, she didn't just send an email and wait—she picked up the phone, called whoever needed to be called, and kept things moving. Her experience and knowledge of the industry were invaluable, especially when it came to negotiations and knowing when to push. She also has an incredible network of people she can turn to. Whether we needed a contractor, moving company, house cleaner, or another service, Maria always seemed to know someone who could help. We sold our home and purchased our new home in less than six weeks, which made for some stressful moments and a very tight timeline. Through all of it, Maria was calm, responsive, professional, and reassuring. We always felt like she knew what was happening and was looking out for us. In the end, she helped us sell our home and get into our dream home, and we are incredibly grateful for everything she did to make that happen. Having Maria in our corner made a complicated process feel manageable, and we wouldn't hesitate to work with her again. We can't recommend her highly enough, Maria is truly one of the best in the area.

He made us feel like his only priority and was so helpful and kind throughout it all. It took a while for us to find the right place and we had some stressful experiences with a tough buying market that we would not have made it through without Rob! He was very patient with the many properties we saw and many many questions we had.

It is our pleasure to write this letter to express our sincere appreciation to one of your exceptional agents, Judy Kaiser!

Judy has provided our family with exceptional service over the last few years while selling and most recently buying a new home. Her knowledge of the market, references for professional services (ie inspectors, roofers, electricians, HVAC) was phenomenal. Her expertise gave us the confidence essential for buyers and sellers. She was always available to answer our questions and was always just a phone call or a text away. Her replies were timely! Her professional conduct was beyond reproach. She cared for us as family and wished for our daughter what she wished for her own. We appreciate your consistent attention to our needs and acknowledge the dedication you have shown; your commitment has been sincerely recognized. We would highly recommend Judy Kaiser to others who need a professional realtor.

Robert Ashery

Maria was just fabulous.

From the beginning of the process, she was kind, patient, and extremely knowledgeable. She helped educate us about the process as first time home buyers and provided us with excellent guidance on how to make a good offer. She was supportive during the first let down of not getting a house we put an offer in on, and then helped us with the winning offer on our home! She provided excellent communication with sellers agents, the lender, lawyers, everyone! I always felt that she was extremely talented and really really knew what she was doing every step of the way, like we were in good hands. I write this review as we sit in our new house, as first time home buyers we could not be more pleased with what was an incredibly stressful process made just a little less stressful because of Maria.

ericadiamond89

I had the opportunity to work with Maria on a home sale and found her to be kind of agent that truly focuses on her clients needs and helps them through the home buying process.

Buying a home and moving are two of the most stressful things in life, having a caring and experienced agent is critical. I can wholeheartedly recommend Maria to anyone buying or selling a home.

Don Clendaniel

My husband and I recently had the pleasure of being represented by Tanya while buying our new home in New York.

From the moment we met Tanya, we knew we had hit the jackpot. Tanya was incredibly friendly and professional, all while getting us through a few rocky moments in the process. Her passion for what she does is evident in the way she works; she stays on top of deadlines and kept the process, at least from her end, moving as smoothly as possible. I'm so glad we found Tanya as an agent, and now, after this experience, I consider her a friend. If you are buying or selling, you'll be glad you chose her as well!

Carey Home Inspection, LLC

We recently closed on our second home purchase with Rob Nazarian, and once again, the experience was outstanding.

Rob made both the selling and buying processes incredibly smooth, we highly recommend him to anyone buying or selling in the Capital Region! On the selling side, our home received multiple offers after just one weekend on the market. As the weekend came to an end, Rob provided a summary of all offers listing pros and cons of each to help us confidently select the best option. For both the sale of our previous home and the purchase of our new one, Rob handled all the logistics, coordinating every appointment, managing all communication with the other parties (attorneys, lenders, other agents), and kept us updated with timely, clear information at every stage. We always knew exactly where we stood. If you are looking for a reliable, responsive, and highly capable realtor, Rob Nazarian is the person you need!

Josephine Bruno was excellent.

There is no better advocate to have in your corner than Maria to navigate the complexities of the real estate market. I highly recommend Maria to anyone looking for a highly knowledgeable, compassionate, and committed Real Estate professional.

Lisa Giruzzi

We are so glad we had Josie Bruno by our side as we navigated the sale of our house.

It was a pleasure working with Maria.

She was knowledgeable and professional the entire time. The purchase of our new home took a little longer than usual but Maria was very reassuring and helpful throughout the process to make sure we weren't questioning what was going on and we ended up in an amazing home we can now call our own. We have already recommended her to a friend and plan to do so in the future if anyone needs a realtor. 10/10 experience.

Savannah Powell

We just moved from Utah to New York, and we would have been lost without Rob!

He is probably the best person we have ever worked with. EVER! You couldn't ask for someone more responsive, knowledgeable and helpful. This whole process took us almost 6 months and he was with us every chaotic step of the way. He truly went above and beyond anything we could have expected and we wished everyday that we could have had him with us in selling our home in Utah! If you're looking for a realtor, you won't be disappointed in choosing Rob. Forever grateful for everything he did for us!

Working with Tanya was one of the best decisions we made throughout our home buying journey.

From the very beginning, her service was impeccable. She always had our best interests at heart and advocated for us every step of the way, especially when we encountered a few unexpected hiccups with the sellers and their agent. Tanya is incredibly knowledgeable, steadfast, relatable and professional. She took the time to truly understand what we were looking for, never pressured us into making decisions, and always followed our lead while offering thoughtful guidance and honest advice. We couldn’t have done this without her. Tanya’s integrity, hard work, and dedication gave us complete confidence throughout the entire process. I appreciated her attention to detail, prompt responses and authenticity. What started as a professional relationship has grown into a genuine friendship, and we are so grateful to have met her. Tanya exceeded every expectation we had, and we cannot recommend her highly enough. If you’re looking for a real estate agent who is honest, trustworthy, and will truly fight for your best interests, Tanya is the one.

KEITH & TANYA CALLAHAN

I've had the pleasure of working with Maria on numerous transactions over the years, and she continues to impress me with her professionalism, attention to detail, and commitment to her clients.

She takes the time to educate her buyers and sellers, communicates exceptionally well, and always goes the extra mile to make sure everyone involved has the information they need. As a lender, having a Realtor I can trust is invaluable, and Maria is absolutely one of those professionals. I never hesitate to recommend her and always look forward to working together.

I highly recommend this beautiful soul!

JUSTIN & DANNIELLE DEANE

I was so lucky to have Josie as my real estate agent during my home buying journey.

Josie was very easy to communicate with, she made everything seem easy and smooth, and was so supportive throughout the many months we worked together.

Caitlin Orsino

I wanted to take this opportunity to thank you for your work, and write about the work you dii and how valuable and helpful it was for me, through the somewhat long and difficult process of selling my house.

We had a buyer before we even listed, but the buyer turned out to be just on the edge of being able to afford the property. Kathy guided me through our work on the house (which went past schedule) and dealt with the buyers, who were consistently cagey about their financial situation. Kathy was a staunch advocate for us as sellers; this buyer had offered to buy the house in a private sale, and after dealing with their difficult path to finally bringing the funding together, I was very glad to have Kathy in our corner, holding the buyers to account - Kathy and my lawyer basically had to drive the closing process home with sometimes vague or contradictory information from the buyers. She was always ready with logistical help or good advice, and hooked us up with a stellar cleanout service. I can't thank Kathy enough for her hard work and business savvy, and I would wholeheartedly recommend her to anyone buying or selling a a house. Thanks again, so much, Kathy!

Christopher Cocciop

I can't say enough good things about Rob!

He steered us through a very challenging time with the sale of our house. He helped with finding vendors to remediate mold, a handyman do some repairs and communicated with the buyer's bank when they put up unnecessary obstacles. He also connected us with a great lawyer for the closing. He was always responsive, answering e-mails quickly and clearly. If you are looking for a great realtor he's your guy!
