As first time buyers, we were incredibly fortunate to have Lynn as our agent. She was SO helpful and supportive, and patiently guided us through every minute detail throughout the entire, lengthy buying process—we always felt confident and reassured that we were in great hands! It was such a positive experience working with Lynn and we have remained in close contact to this day. We highly recommend Lynn! Anne R.

Lynn, thanks so much for being a fantastic broker and advocate. We are so excited to move into our new home and couldn’t have gotten it without you. Shirley L.

John's knowledge of the Hastings area is impressive having worked and lived in Hastings for many years. I felt he understood my needs and the type of home I was looking to buy. He is pleasant, soft-spoken and professional. I would recommend him to anyone looking to purchase a home. Patricia B.

Picture this: I'm at a rooftop restaurant in Shanghai, China when the phone rings. I had left John to sell my house while I went on vacation. It's John on the phone and he has sold the house and has had it featured in the New York Times and he has met with the Building Department to clear my permits and it's all good. Simply put: He's the best! Paul S.

John is an excellent real estate agent - honest, knowledgeable and hard working for his clients. I had the opportunity to work with John recently and I could not have asked for a better guide to help me navigate the process of buying my first home in a competitive market. We could not be more grateful! Joel W.

Lynn was a joy to work with while finding our next home. She offered us great advice, details about life in the Rivertowns that only a local could know and went above and beyond helping us in our search with honesty, persistence and confidence. I’d recommend her to all my friends and would call her up if we find ourselves on the search again. Bevin R.

I recently returned to New York, and I knew I wanted to live in one of the Rivertowns. Someone put me in touch with Lynn and she was wonderful to work with. Lynn put a lot of effort into helping me find the right place. She has a great eye for details that I would have overlooked. I felt she had the knowledge and expertise, as well as a cheerful and pleasant disposition, necessary to be a great real estate agent. Lynn was very patient and worked very hard to help me find the right place. I highly recommend her!

Lynn is amazing at what she does! Her knowledge of the Rivertowns was helpful for us in choosing our first home together. She was efficient, organized and knew who to contact for additional information. She was always available and went the extra mile by video conferencing us while we were out of the country. We are grateful for finding Lynn and having her by our side in our home buying process. Alice B.

Lynn is a consummate professional who showed unlimited patience and resourcefulness in our long hunt for a home in Hastings-On-Hudson. We ended up buying after several years of looking and we couldn’t be happier. Lynn was also extremely competent in ensuring the quick and smooth sale of our former home. We would highly recommend Lynn to anyone buying or selling a home. Thank you Lynn! Danielle S.

Lynn, We did it! We sold the house! Thanks so much for your help in staging, showing the house and guiding us through the process. You went above and beyond in checking on things when we weren’t there, too. Thank you! We appreciate all that you did for us! Audrey T.

Lynn, It was a pleasure working with you to sell my condo. You helped make a difficult time easier and getting a quick sale was great. Thanks for also going above and beyond and resolving my broken lock issues when I was not home! Barbara Q.

Lynn did a great job leading us through the process of buying our wonderful 1913 house. She pointed out potential pros and cons of each of the houses we visited, and when we were ready to pull the trigger she was particularly expert in leading us through the offer, negotiation, inspection, contract, mortgage, and closing steps. Her organization, thoroughness, legal background and knowledge, and sound advice were invaluable. She also hooked us up with a mortgage broker and real estate lawyer wo brought a less-than-straightforward deal to a timely and uneventful closing. Above and beyond that, Lynn [...]

When we began searching for a new home, we didn’t know where to begin. Kumiko Buller was patient and generous with her time driving us and showing us houses in various areas so that we could familiarize ourselves with the market and begin focusing on what kind of home and the area we wanted. She continued to keep us abreast of new listings and showing us until we finally found the home we liked. She was immensely helpful through the purchasing process, giving us the information about the property promptly and navigating us through the process step by step. She is detail oriented, organized, and [...]

My family and I are now settled in a wonderful home in Hastings-on-Hudson thanks to Lynn Berliner. Lynn is caring and devoted to her clients; she has extensive knowledge about the Rivertowns and gave meticulous attention to every detail throughout the process of buying a new home from touring new listings to the details of the closing. But above all, Lynn understood what my family and I hoped to find in a house and she worked tirelessly to help us find it. Nikki W.

John represented us in the sale of our home. He came highly recommended from a neighbor. When we first met with him, he showed up prepared: he provided us with market analysis reports and walked us through the entire sales process. he took his time talking with us and answered all the questions we had. As most people know, buying/selling a home is stressful and it was important to us to have someone who made us feel at ease through the process. We knew right away he was the guy for us.

Lynn was extremely helpful in assisting us find a house. She genuinely wanted us to find a place that suited our needs perfectly, and it was nice to have someone truly on our side. She was very thorough, reliable, and available, and her legal expertise was an added bonus. I would highly recommend her to any buyer looking for a home! Jason L.

It was an absolute pleasure working with Lynn! She was extremely diligent and worked very hard to find us our perfect home that was in our price range. I cannot recommend her enough! Jessica G.

When selling a property there is no shortage of real estate brokers and it is a delicate matter to pick one, it is not always a good idea to deal with friends because you never know whether the friendship will survive the potential hiccups which can occur. Having said that, we were extremely happy to be working with Kumiko Buller who has proven to be thorough, dedicated, knowledgeable, but primarily available and willing to give so much of her time making sure that the buyer knew everything there was to know about the property. We appreciated the fact that when prompted with a query, she replied [...]

I don’t know where to begin, Lynn goes above and beyond. She is a very sweet lady and will go the extra mile for you. I will always go back to using Lynn. She is truly amazing. Oscar Q.

Lynn came highly recommended from a fellow realtor in Larchmont as an expert on the Rivertowns and she didn’t disappoint! Lynn took the time to understand our desires and applied her expert knowledge of the area to finding us our new home. Lynn is super nice to work with but she could also be aggressive on our behalf. The seller’s agent of our new home was very unconventional and Lynn managed a difficult situation with this agent like a pro. We also highly recommend Lynn and she is our top choice if we ever need a real estate agent in the Rivertowns again!

We worked with Lynn to find our home in Irvington. She was wonderful and helped us navigate our way through a very overwhelming process. We were on a tight budget and had some key requirements. Lynn showed us many homes across several different communities. She didn’t just show us the homes but helped us look at each home carefully and made sure we were considering our key requirements. She also did extra work and provided information on the communities we were pinpointing. Her efforts did not stop at just showing us some houses. She helped us confirm critical tax assumptions and put us in [...]

Lynn, Thanks to you, selling my house was less stressful than it could have been. Throughout the process you investigated and followed up on every detail. When there were options you explained the pros and cons and supported my decision although I suspect sometimes you did not think it was the best choice. I especially appreciated the prompt and thorough way you kept me informed about what was happening, what to do and what to expect. I also like the way you followed up with potential buyers’ agents especially when results of inspection were not forthcoming or unclear. As a single female [...]

Lynn was invaluable in helping us relocate to the Rivertowns. She has an in-depth knowledge of the market and key contacts that helped us get exactly what we wanted. Really appreciate her perspective as a fellow parent! Kristine S.

We were fairly picky first-time home buyers when we started looking for our new house in the Rivertowns so of course we were incredibly naïve and anxious about the process. On our very first day with Lynn, we not only looked at nine houses we also got an amazing tour of the Rivertowns and we started to learn all of the ins and outs of what was in store for us. From that day forward, Lynn continued to be steadfastly positive, informative and available to us. We learned so much and ended up closing on a house we love dearly. Buying a home can be a long journey and we couldn’t have asked for a better travel partner. The energy and spirit we encountered on that first day never [...]

John did a great job working with us to get our house ready for sale and recommended a price that resulted in several very acceptable offers. Two days after it went on the market we chose from "best and final" offers and had a smooth closing within one month. Thanks, John. Jerry M.

Lynn, I want to thank you for your tireless efforts and genuine concern for our best interest. It was such a pleasure to work with you. You were fantastic. Federico S.

John's strategic business sense and courteous, diplomatic style were the ideal formula for listing and selling our Rivertowns home. After interviewing several agents, John was the right choice and provided excellent counsel at each stage of the process. Thanks to his marketing instincts, our home was sold for a premium over asking exceeding our expectations even in a hot market. HH

It was an excellent experience, start to finish. John was attentive to our needs and kept his eye on all the details - a real relief for us. John is a true professional who goes the distance for his clients. It was a real pleasure working with him. Lyn T.

We really enjoyed working with Lynn. She understood what we were looking for in a house and helped us greatly during our year-long search and lengthy negotiation process. She also gave us wonderful advice about local resources and checked in with us even after our purchase was complete. Carolyn H.

Lynn was instrumental in the purchase of our apartment in Hastings-on-Hudson. She was at all times attentive to the details of a rapidly changing and developing situation. It is thanks to her vigilance that we were able to secure a very lucrative property purchase. Marcella K.
