"A year ago, Emmanuel sold my house in Bayside, New York. My husband and I were very pleased with the commitment he showed. By putting time and patience into the sale of our property, he made us feel like he really cared about our family. I would highly recommend him to anyone looking to sell their home."

- Emily Yarembinsky

"Andre is hard working and consistent. After giving him the specs for the type of home I was looking to purchase, he made sure that was exactly what I saw. He is persistent and also very personable."

- Tasha Joyner

Marco and David are skilled, knowledgable, pleasant, and detail-oriented. What more could you want in your realtors? They know the market, they explained things well, they stayed on top of the process, and they kept us up-to-date as things moved along. Your Agents got a phenomenal turnout at the open house — so we know they advertised and marketed the event well. We certainly didn't expect this level of service, but we got it! We'd highly recommend them to anyone wanting to sell a property.

- Sylvia and Carol Peretz

I recently closed on the sale of my house and my Agent was Steve O’Brien.  I just wanted to thank him for living up to the Charles Rutenberg Realty model of “The Standard of Excellence.”  Whenever a problem arose, Steve met with the appropriate parties to have the task completed and ready for the closing. I want to thank Charles Rutenberg Realty for having such amazing Agents in its employ.  Specifically, I want to thank Steve O’Brien for going above and beyond in his pursuit of excellence!  He was like a coach before the big game.

Buying a house can be overwhelming, but having someone to guide you during that experience can be a lifesaver. Patrycia Zielinski exudes professionalism.  She’s approachable, tenacious, and knows the Real Estate market. Most of all, she keeps you informed every step of the way. I have no problem endorsing her and would engage her services again in a heartbeat.

- R. Rizzo & A. Sweeney

Sheila and Larry are the most caring and professional Realtors my husband and I have had the pleasure of knowing.  As Real Estate buyers and sellers, we wouldn't want anyone else representing us when making such important decisions.  We don't know what we would do without their help!

- Rhonda and Tim McEntee

The houses your Agent showed us were also exactly what we were looking for in a new home and her turn-around time was second to none.  She always made herself available to us and worked around our schedule — showing us homes on nights and weekends. Your Agent guided us on our journey to homeownership from the beginning to the end and always protected our interests along the way.

- Michael and Toma Hunt

I recently rented an apartment for my niece and her family. The situation was unusual and there was the potential for many problems and complexities. Your Agent was superb at solving each issue as it came up and, in some cases, preventing issues before I even knew they existed. He is thoughtful, he listens, and he makes success happen. I recommend working with him to anyone looking to rent or buy in the New York area. He is truly a gem.

Knowledgeable, honest, and transparent is how the experience of working with your Agent can best be defined. When we expressed any interest in looking at a home, she made the process incredibly comfortable – making us feel like we were her only customers. She was available to speak at a moment's notice, and was always willing to show us a home. Your Agent was refreshing and warm – and not once did she ever display the typical salesperson approach. From day of listing to the day of closing, she became an extension of our family. Her professionalism and appreciation for our wants and needs are all quality attributes that a true Realtor should possess. If you are looking for an all-around experience where your Realtor will be at your side, answer all your questions, and help you through the process, then this is the Agent for you.

- Karl and Melanie O’Leary

The Real Estate market is still quite slow in my area and apartments in our building have been languishing, but this unit sold within a few months and the owner is very happy with both your Agent and his apartment. She was informative, pleasant, and covered all bases, leaving us nothing to do except interview the buyer. I would highly recommend her to other sellers in the building.

- Joyce Lerner

This is an excellent Agent and we would highly recommend her to anyone we know who might be looking for one. Your company is blessed to have her on its team. She speaks with much pride, grace, and respect when talking about Charles Rutenberg Realty. Thank you so much for the excellent service. Choosing an Agent like her speaks highly of the standards of your Company – well done!

- Sean and Jeanette Haley

We thank you for the service you provided. We are especially indebted to you for your persistence, particularly after other deals fell through. Being a Real Estate Agent is not easy in these difficult times. You kept showing the apartment, negotiating, and promoting buyer interest. We certainly would recommend you to any of our contacts requiring Realtor services in the New York area.
