The process of purchasing a home can be intimidating, especially for a first time home buyer. It requires you to learn concepts in an unfamiliar world so that you can make an informed, and life changing, decision. Because of this, a great real estate agent is paramount. We were so lucky to have Michael Geller, and the whole Zamir Group Team, as our guide through our home purchase. From before we even looked at our first prospective home, Michael was always available to speak with us and clearly communicated expectations, next steps, and answered any questions we had about the process. He was extremely flexible working around our busy work schedule to view homes with us. His negotiation skills were tenacious, strategic, and effective, with a strong backing of experience complimenting them. He kept us on track with deadlines for our purchase and kept the seller’s team on track as well. When we are ready to sell and buy another home, there is no question who our agent will be.
Working with Esthermarie was the best experience I had working with a realtor in Ocean County. As a first time home buyer she was honest, trustworthy and always available to assist my family and I with whatever questions we had. She’s incredibly patient, even when I wasn’t and she took her time with the home buying process, we never felt rushed. Very responsive, always answering all our complicated questions, and she made the whole process smooth. Esthermarie never gave up and always motivated me even with I believed I would never find the perfect home for my family and I. She is the master negotiator! Highly skilled and knowledgeable about the market which helped us get our home at the perfect price while keeping the seller happy. Highly recommend for securing the best deal and finding the best home for your family!
We engaged James after he sold our neighbors' home in barely a week's time and for over asking price. He delivered the same great service to us and I can't recommend him highly enough. He's focused and responsive and made what could have been a difficult process easy. He's a true real estate professional.
Professional, knowledgeable, hardworking. Her attention to detail and follow through is extraordinarily breathtaking. She listens to your wants and needs and produces results in a positive manner. Esthermarie’s availability is second to none. Esthermarie’s response time was refreshing. I never felt ignored. From start to finish I was impressed. You will be pleased working with a top notch professional.
EstherMarie Gallicchio has been assisting my family and I in finding the perfect home for the last 5 years. As a first time home buyer, Esther and her staff have supported, informed and advocated for my family and I during the entire process. She allowed me to take my time in finding the perfect home for my family. The process was long, however it was worth the wait. We love our new home and Esther made sure we achieved the success we desired in securing this home for us. We thank you and know the future families you assist will experience the same excellence and expertise you showed us. We wish you all the best!
The home was well represented. The lack of inventory probably played a large roll in the quick sale
Angela went out of her way to help both selling and purchasing my home. Very dedicated person and kept me informed throughout the process. Highly recommended her.
James was so very professional with the listing of my house. He immediately had a fantastic photo shoot and at the open house there were three offers the first day. I accepted one of those that was well over the asking price. James kept me informed every step of the way and the house went from listing to closing in two months. I highly recommend his services!
Maria was recommended as a veteran-friendly agent, and she was fabulous. It was wonderful to have such a knowledgeable agent that actually lived in the area for so many years. She helped me through the entire process and made it seem easy. I felt like the entire purchasing experience was made painless because of her.
