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 [...]

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.

I recently worked with Alexandra on the purchase of my co-op and I was very happy with her service. This was my first time buying property and Alexandra made it super easy and always kept me informed. She is extremely professional and incredibly thorough. Alexandra knows the market inside and out; she walked me through what to expect and was patient and very responsive when answering all my follow-up questions. She is super flexible and really goes above and beyond to serve her clients throughout the entire process. I would recommend Alexandra to anyone looking to buy property in Westchester County. Christina Barry

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 [...]

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 [...]

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, 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 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.

Alexandra was very knowledgable on the area, professional and extremely responsive. She went above and beyond throughout the process even past closing. For example, we needed an inspection. She not only hired the company for us but also oversaw the project as we were unable to be onsite. Laura Sequenza

I'm a first time home buyer thanks to Alexandra Minner! Without her, I would probably still be house hunting. Alexandra is probably the speediest, most realistic, and most involved broker I've ever met. She's reliable and professional, and her connections with the right lawyers, contractors, inspectors, and even mortgage brokers will make you feel like purchasing a home is almost (!) like a walk in the park. Overall, purchasing my new home was an amazingly pleasant experience and I can't thank her enough for holding my hand throughout the entire process, even while she was away on vacation!! You will be grateful to have chosen Alexandra as your broker. She's very [...]

Alexandra is amazing! She is both patient and persistent. Her energy and enthusiasm will keep you going through this process selling your home. I would not have sold my apartment as quickly as we did without her. She went above and beyond to help stage the apartment perfectly for selling. The same day we released the apartment for sale on the internet we received a full offer. All because of Alexandra!!! Recommend her to anyone looking to sell fast and at good pricing. She is the best!! Cathy Torres

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.

We worked with Alexandra as our selling agent to sell our house in Hastings on Hudson. This was an end-to-end excellent experience. To start, we had spoken with two other agents regarding selling our house prior to meeting with Alexandra. Whereas the two other agents gave our house an at best cursory look through and then presented a suggested asking price (that they had CLEARLY come up with before even laying eyes on our house), Alexandra came in, did a very careful inspection of the house, took a day to work on the number, and then came back with her estimate. Her estimate was substantially higher than the other two agents. This in and of itself was not the reason for us going with her [...]

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.

Alexandra is a pleasure to do business with. She really understands the local market and what buyers were looking for. Her recommendations on preparations were spot on. Her design background really helped visualize what our house could look like. With her recommendations and referrals for a great staging company, the house looked amazing when it went up for sale. Although she had a definite idea of the listing price. After discussing the reasons why I wanted it higher, she didn't put up a fight and worked just as hard on selling the house. We had several twists and turns with the first time homeowners before closing but through it all, where Alexandra could help; she did. Help like [...]

Alexandra was instrumental in helping us purchase our dream home. Over a multi-year period working with her throughout the Rivertowns, she was consistently proactive, knowledgable, and extremely responsive to any questions we had. Without her, we likely would have given up the search, settling on another suburban location, but she always kept us in the loop on exciting properties coming up, and was very patient and professional when dealing with our elongated decision-making about a variety of properties leading up to the one we landed in. A great partner for all of our real estate [...]

Alexandra Minner was a real dream agent through our process. Organized, great feedback, very responsive and understanding of our needs. Her area knowledge was imperative for our decision making and on the top of everything Alexandra has sense of humor that comes handy when dealing with a new house. Highly recommend. Marguerite Beltrano

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, 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 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!

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.

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.

We recently purchased our first house and could not have been happier with our experience with Alexandra. Her local knowledge was first-rate, she was frank and to-the-point, and we knew that she always had our best interests in mind when viewing a property. When it came time to get the ball rolling on the house that we wanted, Alexandra was tenacious and always made sure that we were aware of what was going on and the next steps. She made the entire experience a fast and pleasant one and we are thrilled with how everything turned out. John and Ashley Quigg

Alexandra was great! She knows the area and gives honest opinions and advise. Goes out of her way to get all the information i needed to make an informed decision and does everything promptly. Did not waste my time showing me places i wouldn't like. She figured out what I wanted and took me there. Can't recommend her enough. Bill Mehr

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.

We were looking to buy a house in the river towns and Alexandra was our realtor. Alexandra was very proactive in getting us last minute appointments, she really knows the market in the area. Her responsiveness was spectacular, she would email us back or text any time. She also helped us find a lawyer, and she knows the local workmen which was very helpful for negotiating and closing the deal. When we found the house we wanted to buy, she didn't push just to close the deal but she helped negotiate the price we wanted to offer and the closing date the was convenient for us. We highly recommend her. Elizabeth Bradshaw

Alexandra is a very professional real estate agent. Her knowledge of the river towns is exquisite. We were having a hard time looking for a home for a long time until we worked with Alexandra. We appreciate all of her hard work to help us find a new home to rent. She is very direct, honest and efficient. If and when we are going to look for a home to buy we will be happy to use her again. Trish Liberatore

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 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.

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.

Alexandra is a star realtor who treats every client like her only client. Even though I was a first time home buyer and buying a co-op, Alexandra treated me like I was buying a million dollar home. As a first-time home buyer, I wasn't sure if I wanted a one bedroom or a two bedroom; Alexandra was patient with me and helped me weigh the pros and cons and showed me a variety of places that helped me make my final decision. When I first started the search, I was adamant about staying in a very specific location. Alexandra showed me great homes in that area but also encouraged me to branch out into new neighborhoods and I ultimately purchased my dream home in one of the neighborhoods [...]

HIGHLY RECOMMEND! Alexandra is everything you could want in a realtor and more. She is extremely dedicated, always available, and highly knowledgeable about the process. To top it all off, she's from the area, so can speak from experience about everything it has to offer! She was there every step of the way as we prepared to sell our co-op, providing us advice and insight on what would make it the most appealing to potential buyers. She connected us with vendors, sent us examples of things to purchase and helped us rearrange furniture. We couldn't believe the transformation! Those small changes were incredibly important, and we would've never known if it weren't for [...]

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.

Ms. Minner is a winner!!! I just closed on the sale of my condo yesterday and have already recommended Alexandra to a few friends. Alexandra really knows the local housing market well and recognizes the nuances of macro housing dynamics. With Alexandra you have a focused drive to succeed, a very pleasant personality, an uncanny ability to read people, and excellent negotiating skills. These attributes resulted in my deal getting done in a timely manner, with the right terms, and a satisfied client. Bob [...]

Alexandra Minner is dedicated, energetic, and straightforward. She adapts quickly and seamlessly to the changing needs and demands of her clients, and works tirelessly, at all hours. Always with good energy and a smile on her face, she goes above and beyond to make sure she is there to support her clients at every step. She was a fierce advocate for us in our hunt for the perfect home, and her dedication to her profession is unquestionable. Paul and Lauren Wendelken

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.

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

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.

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.

Alexandra's excellent energy, local knowledge & sense for the market helped us find the right match for our new home. She was available to help us seemingly around the clock. She collaborated with the team at Peter J. Riolo to provide the maximum experience and insight into the subtleties of the many situations we encountered during our search. We found her to be a great person to work with. Elizabeth and Michael Muse

Alexandra is the best and most responsible at what she does. I highly recommended her to two of my colleagues. She helped me find the apartment of my dreams within 2 weeks. I am amazed how great she is. I have been searching to buy for 3 years. I've been working with different agents-Alexandra is incomparable to all. I am extremely happy. She will be remembered forever!!! Ana Anitoaie

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.

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.

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.

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, 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.

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 [...]

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 [...]

Our search was time sensitive and, despite a dearth of options, Alexandra was able to find an apartment that met all of our specs within a two week timeframe. Impressive, given the scarce inventory with which she had to work. Sean Waters
