I've worked with Steve and Lori in the pass and just as before their level of knowledge and skill is second to none. I would definitely recommend them to family and friends. Top knoch agents. Use them with confidence!

We had the pleasure of working with Steve Ristaino, and I can't recommend him highly enough. From the very start, Steve made the home-selling process not just manageable, but enjoyable. He was incredibly friendly and approachable, always ready with a smile and a helpful attitude. His extensive knowledge of the market and genuine enthusiasm for helping us sell our home quickly and for top dollar was evident every step of the way.

He guided us through each phase with clarity and patience, addressing all our questions and concerns promptly. His proactive approach and attention to detail ensured that nothing fell through the cracks, and his insightful advice helped us easily make informed decisions. Overall, Steve Ristaino turned what can often be a stressful process into a seamless and pleasant journey.

Words will never be enough to express the amazing experience we had working with Steve and his partner Lori. They had to navigate my very picky elderly mother and went way above and beyond. Steve even took my mom to the ER because I was 6 hours away! They knew exactly how to price the house and we got way over asking with multiple offers after only one weekend of an open house. The closing went without a hitch and Steve never let one of my calls go unanswered. l am shouting from the roof tops to anyone who will listen that Steve and Lori are the best real estate agents around! Call them! You will be thankful you did!

Working with Seve and Lori was the high point of selling my home of 30 years. They made the previously unknown process as easy and painless as possible for me. From the first day they came to speak to me through every step until the final closing and exchange of keys they represented me professionally as well as personally. . . always keeping my needs and concerns at the forefront of the negotiations. They were always available to answer questions, address my concerns and "lift me up" when I was feeling overwhelmed. They explained every document and every step of the process fully and what to expect as things moved forward. They understood the market in the area where I lived and instinctively knew what to say and do to represent my home to achieve the highest sale price possible. They were kind and supportive and I am so grateful that I was introduced to them and hired them to represent me. I couldn't have found anyone better

Steve was always very pleasant, available and easy to work with. He had realistic expectations about our situation and his knowledge proved correct. He was able to find multiple buyers wiling to pay over the asking price and concluded the transaction quickly.

Steve was incredible to work with! He helped with the rehab of my home before I put it on the market and was also very hands on throughout the process. I can't thank him enough, I appreciate all of your hard work! Thank you for guiding me through the whole process. I would absolutely work with Steve again.

Steve has been nothing but helpful, resourceful, and a joy to work with during our home buying journey. Steve has stuck by us through several years of our on and off home search, helping us navigate a crazy post-covid real estate market. Anytime we had a question - Steve was always extremely responsive and helpful (usually responding within minutes) sharing wisdom from years of experience in the field. As first time buyers, Steve helped educate us on all things pertaining to the market, buying strategy and gave us his honest advise. I never felt like we were working with a realtor, more like a friend or a helpful uncle! I would definitely recommend Steve to anyone looking for a realtor.

Steve has very specific knowledge of real estate and has great seller and buyer skills. He handled the sale very professionally. He definitely has people-service philosophy! I definitely will be using Steve again! I will call him Friend.
