Testimonials
"I have worked with other Realtors and found Caren to be the best. She helped us be real to list and suggested what to do to have the house show ready. She helped stage it. The price she recommended was mush higher than I thought I could get. She was right. Sold quickly with multiple offers and I got more than the asking price. The photographs she obtained and the way she marketed it generated many buyers fast. I will use her again and again. She worked hard for me. I got more money than I expected faster than I expected. "

"Caren is very knowledgeable about the market. She is also professional and responsive. I would definitely recommend her for any real estate needs! She took time to understand what we are looking for and has recommended properties that are in line with our needs. "
-F Capritta, Client
"We found Caren to be a highly attentive agent, almost as if we were her only customers, although we know that was not the case. She returned all phone calls and emails the same day. We never felt neglected or unimportant. She is also highly personable with an engaging personality. Caren was honest about the market and our property to attract buyers quickly, and her advice worked! We are pleased to recommend Caren to anyone looking to buy or sell a home. She is hands down the best in the business in our opinion and if we ever need to move again she will be our first choice in real estate agents. "
-The Walkers, Client
" “She was wonderful!” Ms. Ermel’s thorough and timely communication and her “above and beyond” efforts to deal with recalcitrant tenants, a hesitant potential buyer, the sheriff and multiple contractors, ultimately leading to finding willing buyers and concluding a successful sale. That’s a lot to do just to sell one house! I would add that Ms. Ermel’s background working with senior citizens made her sensitive to my mother’s preference not to deal with the day-to-day matters or tasks that required a significant expenditure of time or energy, working through me most of the time, but to make sure my mother was consulted and fully in control when it came to making the most important decisions. It was the ideal balance, and it worked out well."
