An incredible and extremely talented team, our realtor Julia Connor went above and beyond every step of the way, Julia is a skilled negotiator and her attention to detail ensured that everything went to plan, we ended up selling at 10% above our asking price! I highly recommend Julia and the entire FM team to both sellers and buyers!
Working with Julia at compass was a wonderful experience from start to finish. The entire process was handled with the utmost professionalism and exceptional attention to detail. Highly recommend!!
We worked with Catherine and she was amazing. It was a very tough market but she was honest and provided good guidance and we ended up with our dream home. Highly recommend!!
Francie and Trevor were outstanding beginning to end. Their ethics are impeccable and they deliver such a high level of expertise, customer service, advice and counsel. I have bought and sold many homes and I could not give them a higher recommendation.
Francie and her team were so amazing! They were so professional and went above and beyond to listen and do whatever was asked of them. They priced the house accordingly and within days I had multiple offers. Selling your home can be very emotional and they helped to make sure that the right buyer was chosen to ensure the deal would close. I would highly recommend them as they truly care about their clients.
Pamela has been an absolute godsend to me and my wife. We just bought our first home, and Pamela helped us to learn what we needed to know every step of the way. Pamela is kind, thoughtful, warm, smart — and she exudes an understanding of all things real estate. And now that we have a new home, Pamela has been a tremendous resource in helping us to settle in, spruce up the place, and get acquainted with our new town. There’s no question, working with Pamela has brought us tremendous peace of mind. Thank you, Pamela!
Cant say enough about Catherine and the Francie Malina team. Despite a tough market, Catherine was there every step of the way with us and ultimately led us to our home, which we couldnt be happier with. We really trusted Catherine's judgement and knew that she always had our best interests in mind. Can't recommend the team enough.
We could not have been happier to have worked with Francie and team to find a house in Westchester. As a first time home buyer, we were nervous and knew very little, and she helped us find our dream home with her expertise, kindness, honesty, and responsiveness. She still checks in on us and keeps in touch, showing us she cares about her clients beyond just closing the sale. Could not recommend her and her team enough and have already referred her to everyone we know!
We had the pleasure of being introduced to Pamela Grunstein on the Francie Malian team at Compass through Zillow and we could not be more grateful for that connection! Pamela assisted us in buying our first home from the other side of the country. In addition to the entire home buying process, she assisted us in our relocation process from the West Cost to Westchester, while we continued our search. She was an absolute dream to work with! Friendly, knowledgeable, and always available for even the smallest question. She took the stress off of this process and truly helped us to buy the house of our dreams. And while Pamela is amazing, so is the entire Francie Malia team. So many helpful resources were provided to us by the team, as well as contacts we would need in the process of purchasing the home. Everyone they connected us with was phenomenal to work with. We simply could not recommend Pamela and the FM team enough! We feel so fortunate to have found and worked with Pamela, and are so grateful she helped us turn our dream into a reality!
We had an terrific experience buying our first home with Julia Connor in a very competitive market. We navigated 40% price increases over the past two years, while also staring down surging interest rates this spring. It was obviously a tough environment, but Julia helped us every step of the way. I wholeheartedly recommend her and the Francie Maline Team. Julia essentially did the impossible by finding a home in an elite part of Westchester for under a million dollars (not to mention negotiating down tens of thousands on the closing price). She helped us thread the needle by fine tuning our offers so we could get the right trade off between the lowest interest rate and the lowest price on a house that we loved. We got past the most heated part of the market and negotiated a great deal ( ~450 / sqft in a tier 1 neighborhood), but also locked in a rate before they soared. Julia had her finger on the pulse, and I was impressed by her combination of business savvy and real estate fundamentals. Aside from the dollars and cents, Julia helped us in every way imaginable from advising us on how (and whether) to write letters to owners to going through our final inspection so carefully that she made recommendations on our construction punchlist. She’s exacting but also creative, relaxed, and personable. She got to know us and our preferences and understood what we needed vs. wanted, and tried to make sure we got both. There are a million other things I haven’t mentioned, like pulling records, helping us get into the right schools, and knowing the best contractors, architects, lawyers. Did I mention she had to show us like a dozen houses to get all these variables perfect? She was honest, helpful, and meticulous — the complete package. I help investors buy single family rental homes in my day job, and I wish the institutional acquisition teams were as good as Julia. I can’t say enough.
Cannot recommend Francie, Pamela and the entire Francie Malina Team highly enough. They have the entire process covered-- from the first phone call through the closing.
Every once in a while, you get the pleasure of working with people who are simply *the best in the business.* Professionals who excel at what they do, who you can think of as partners every step of the way. We've done three different real estate transactions with Francie and her team, and each one far exceeded expectations. A mere recommendation wouldn't suffice -- if you don't work with them, you are truly missing out. Is it any surprise they're the #1 selling team in Westchester?
