  • Truly do yourself a favor and hire Arlena, you will not regret it.

    Arlena helped us purchase our first home and we cannot imagine doing it without her. She was knowledgable, responsive, and guided us through every step of the process. We had a particularly harrowing close process and I do not know how we would have gotten through it without Arlena. She fought for us every step of the way and was a true trusted advisor. I couldn’t recommend Arlena enough!

  • Was seamless from start to finish.

    Arlena was fantastic through the entire process—her knowledge of the area was spot on. So appreciative of the number of miles we covered looking for the perfect property and her no nonsense approach to entire process. Handled every situation with professionalism and grace. Would highly recommend.

  • Her know-how and patience guiding this first-time homebuyer through the home buying process was invaluable.

    Arlena was lovely to work with. She was easily able to explain all of the ins and outs of the process and keep me informed of everything that I needed to know in a timely manner, including recommendations for lawyers, inspectors, and contractors. Also, look no further for great tips about goings on in the area. She's certainly got her finger on the pulse. 

    Jack, Kingston

  • She listens, acts fast, advises well, and fights for her clients like few others would.

    Finding a house upstate is hard. Finding a house upstate that you love with all your heart is even harder. Actually buying that house seems impossible - until you bring Arlena into your life. Arlena truly made all the difference for us and we couldn’t be more grateful for her endless support in buying the house of our dreams. We wholeheartedly recommend working with her.

    Alec & Uli, Saugerties

  • Arlena is the best! I can’t thank her enough for her patience and dedication to us.

    Many agents tend to say what potential clients want to hear, which is not helpful at all. Arlena doesn't do that, she'll truly advise on the needs of her clients even if it is a truth hard to swallow or if it is not exactly what the client wanted to hear. That is real and honest help! And that is what keeps clients satisfied with their purchase or sale. She will definitely be our agent for our next transaction. Thank you Arlena!
