I have worked with Paige several years in a row to rent my home in Newport. She is an excellent partner - she pretty much reads my mind at this point. Paige is all the things you would look for in a realtor: professional, realistic, knowledgeable, approachable, communicative, and most of all patient and supportive during those challenging times. I would absolutely recommend Paige at the highest level!
I used Cathy to both sell my Newport property and purchase a new property on Aquidneck Island. Cathy is always attentive and responsive. Her professionalism, knowledge of the market and ability to provide timely advice about local contractors and services proved to be invaluable. In this highly competitive market it’s important to have someone on your side that is as knowledgeable as Cathy. She was wonderful.
Jeff is the best!
This is the second time that I've used Jeff. The first was for the purchase of 187 Aquidneck, and the second was for the sale of 187 Aquidneck. Both transaction went beautifully.
I can not say enough good things about Kevan and Hogan Associates. As an out of state seller with a vacant home, I came to rely on Kevan for handling a number of issues that would have required me do some blind scrambling or make the 4 hour trip from NY. He was there to monitor the amount of fuel oil in the tank and order it when needed. He brought in contractors when things needed sprucing up. He was always in contact and kept me abreast of marketing and feed back from potential buyers. All in all I was extremely happy I contacted Kevan and he handled my sale.
Leslie Hogan did an outstanding job selling our property. We have used her on three occasions to sell and on one occasion to buy. She provides an honest assessment or the property, neighborhood and local resources. Her personal traits make her extremely well suited for real estate. She is personable, smart, straight-forward, and above all else, honest. She took care of every detail when it cam e to the offer sheets, inspections and gathering paperwork for the closing attorneys. It was an effortless process on our part. Her "guess" as to what property is worth has always been on target. I would recommend her without any reservations and will use her again if I have to buy or sell property in the future.
Matt knows what we want before we know it. He has sold to us 4 places and sold 3 of those 4 for us. His advice on location and value have been right on even when we didn't see it initially. Matt has a great instinct for the market in RI and he tells it like it is whether you want to hear it or not. If we had followed Matt's advice from the start we would have made a lot more profit on our investments. Now we always look to Matt for advice.
I've worked with relators in 5 states and have never witnessed a harder worker than elizabeth. 24/7 365! She's kind, caring, generous, on top of everything every.single.day. She keeps ALL the balls in the air never dropping one. She's a therapist, an advisor, great listener, honest, ethical, creates clarity to every challenge, oh so level headed and calm and became a true friend. She did 2 properties for me and I feel truly blessed to have had her working at my side every step of the way. Endless thnx elizabeth. Amy Hughes
Caroline was a fantastic broker. She really understood what we were interested in seeing and was persistent in showing us lots of properties over time. Caroline was an amazing help in negotiating the offer and closing the deal. We are so grateful to her for her help and wisdom! We would recommend Caroline to all friends and contacts interested in buying a home in the Newport area. Thank you Caroline for doing such a great job!
I am a repeat Tammy fan. Not only has she helped me find two homes in a tough housing market, but I've also felt confident in recommending her to coworkers moving to Aquidneck Island.
Emily Chappell was excellent on all aspects of the process of purchasing a home. What I thought would be a very stressful process was actually quite opposite. Emily was always helpful, informative, knowledgeable and timely. The next steps in the process were always clearly communicated, so there was never any confusion as to where we stood. She even helped me pack up, and unload the truck on my closing day! I would recommend Emily Chappell to anyone!
Jeff was exceptionally helpful and made our home-selling process as smooth as it could be. He was very knowledgeable and highly professional, but also friendly and supportive. He gave us good advice, priced our home correctly, and most importantly, took it from market entry to contract in six days. We would definitely use him again. 100% recommend.
I cannot thank Jeff enough for all of the hard work he put in to get me into the right house. With my job nearly an hour away from my desired location and my weekend travel, working around my schedule was I'm sure an absolute bear (i.e. I wasn't able to make a single open house). Throughout the process, of nearly a year, Jeff was thoughtful in his approach to choosing houses to view, was insightful regarding the locations, and was resolute with how he viewed the value of the locations we looked at. Despite the difficulties working with my schedule, and despite two separate offers that were outmatched by other buyers, Jeff did not alter his approach or act frustrated in any manner. We eventually found a great house in a great location and Jeff supported me with putting in an offer under asking. He also suggested we let the sellers go to their open house after our low-offer. This strategy, proposed by Jeff, paid off as the sellers came back to us and accepted my earlier offer, which Jeff orchestrated and he even got the sellers to throw in some furniture with the deal. He was also incredibly responsive with questions I had regarding other aspects of the deal (i.e. loans, closing attorneys, and inspections), which could easily have been directed elsewhere, but which I directed to him because I trusted his opinion on all aspects of the deal. For anyone looking for their first home (or second, third, etc...), I recommend Jeff's services completely. He is honest, patient, and it doesn't hurt that he has a good personality and good sense of humor to make what could be a stressful experience, enjoyable.
If I could give Jeff an extra star- I would! Jeff has helped my husband and I purchase two homes in the past 6 years. As the market has evolved in that time, Jeff has been a steady resource. He has not only been on top of his game as our realtor (always quick to send listings and get showings scheduled, reviews homes in detail, scopes neighborhoods and comps, etc.) but he has also shared his network with us, providing us solid references— one to a bank that got us a great rate and another to a lawyer who has now become a trusted resource as well. Jeff is honest, hard working and available. He is the reason we were able to secure our homes in wildly challenging markets. Thank you Jeff, you’re the best!
Jeff was amazing and we cannot sing his praises enough! I would recommend him highly to anyone looking for a realtor in the Aquidneck Island area.
We highly recommend Paul Tobak as he is knows everyone and everything in the MIddletown/Newport real estate market. Paul Tobak was proactive, detailed, on time, during the negotiations, inspection up to closing. We, the estate owners live out of town and Paul stepped in to aide us in all areas of this process.
Have such a wonderful Realtor in Meredith. Other than our Realtor, she is a great person!
Matt and his team have helped me acquire and sell multiple properties. Matt is knowledgeable, straightforward and trustworthy and my transactions have, accordingly, been successful.
Caoline identified another nearby property that sold recently that set the upper limit we could ask for. From that she set our asking price and estimated what we could realistically expect. She negotiated effectively and achieved a sales price that was very near the asking price. The best. This is the fourth house I've sold over the past 40 years. Caroline is by far the most professional and the most attentive of all the agents I've ever dealt with.
Jeff has an outstanding knowledge of real estate in the southern Rhode island and Massachusetts area. Jeff brought this property to my attention because he knew that it would be perfect for my business and residential needs and he was spot-on. Jeff was an outstanding representative for negotiations and was able to fluidly communicate between multiple parties and convey an accurate concise message that help the process move forward more smoothly. I would highly recommend Jeff to any buyers out there who want professional service and great knowledge of the market and an understanding of the value of what you are investing so much money in time then.
Cathy is a friend that we had lost touch with over the years. We had seen her name on many properties locally and we had her in mind for when we were ready to sell. Many of Cathy's listings were similar in characteristics to our property and it was important to us that the broker agree with the uniqueness of our home. It was also important the we have comfortable clear communication and because we knew Cathy we were confident this would happen. In addition to that, she made the emotional aspect of selling a family home seamless with ongoing respect, kindness and patience. Thank you Cathy, we appreciate all of your hard work.
Kevan is a true professional I have never dealt with a broker who went so far out of his way to accommodate his customer We are real estate brokers in Florida and would be thrilled to have and agent who is so professional and so dedicated as Kevan We are happy to say we would just able to recommend Kevan to friends and clients of ours who are looking in the area
Overall, I am very pleased with the entire sales process. Emily was very knowledgeable and made what could be a daunting process, an exciting one. Emily took care of everything and delivered exactly what I was looking for. She asked all of the right questions, listened, and delivered. I had a lot of questions throughout the process and she answered them in a very timely manner! I would recommend Emily Chappell to any one who is looking to buy or rent in Rhode Island or MA. She was exceptional. I will absolutely use Emily as my agent when I am buying a home in the future. She knows the area, listens to what her clients want, and delivers.
I worked with Cathy Wicks on another property and have great confidence in her sales abilities. I trust her completely, she is always upbeat and positive and gets you through the sale with minimum stress. I would highly recommend Cathy to anyone buying or selling a home.
Tammy went above and beyond in helping us purchase a home. From being flexible when I was in the area to look to being equally if not more detail oriented in finding the right fit for us. When we decided on a new build and the pandemic struck she went above and beyond making us feel comfortable with purchasing a new build from afar. Tammy exceeded our expectations in all regards in helping us with choosing a home and through the new build process. She made us feel comfortable with not being able to visit the progress of the home (due to the pandemic and a military move) and was able to go by the home and take pictures for us. It made us feel so comfortable and at ease over first-time home buying fears. She is incredibly approachable, kind and honest. As I have said before, Tammy went above and beyond in helping us purchase our first home. If I knew of an award to nominate her for I would! She is an incredible real estate agent who honestly felt like family by the end of it with her kindness and caring during buying a new build during a pandemic. Her experience as a former military spouse as well as her past experience working for a builder made her the perfect fit for us. She is so knowledgeable about Newport and the surrounding area (we bought off the island) and really got to know us and helped find the right fit for us. She made the whole process run as smooth as possible and was so helpful, honest and thorough.
My home buying experience with Tom Rao was excellent. As a first time buyer, he walked me through the process every step of the way....from initially researching and looking at properties, to negotiating my purchase price and finally being there on closing day. He was extremely knowledgeable and professional throughout the entire process. Tom was always readily available to answer any questions that arose. I would highly recommend Tom Rao to anyone looking to buy our sell their home in Rhode Island. He was top notch!
Emily helped to sell our house. Her knowledge in the home inspection process was first class. A+ Don’t hesitate to call and ask for Emily for your local real estate needs!!
Elizabeth and her team (namely her mother Marty!) are an incredible crew. Not only knowledgeable and hard working, but also the real deal when it comes to people you'd be proud to count as your new neighbor. We loved working with her and would easily recommend her if someone asked us for a local rep.
We chose Cathy because of her great reputation, everyone who has worked with her always has positive things to say and we couldn’t agree more!
Mike was very helpful, informative and knowledgeable. Great working with him and made this experience fast and efficient. Mike took care of all inspections and paperwork. It was great working with Mike Hill. Highly recommend!
Lynn Creighton is a phenomenal broker who gets results will be an asset to any client seller or buyer period.
Marlene has helped us buy and sell several properties over the last 20+ years. There is NO ONE I would rather have by our side during these challenging and daunting property transfers. Her vast wisdom, real estate expertise, steady and certain demeanor and true passion for real estate undoubtedly make her one of the BEST realtors in the market today. We most highly recommend her for any buying or selling transactions. Beyond satisfied!!! FANTASTIC!
Matt has been a real estate friend of our families. He sold my brothers house 15 years ago. I am so happy I got the chance to work with Matt and his awesome team at Hogan and associates to buy my dream home here on quick! island. He was always super informative, nice and a straight shooter. He also got the job done in a market where I was struggling to find a home in my price range would highly recommend Matt to anyone looking for a new home or selling a house.
Mike Hill is a pleasure to work with and he gets results!
Jeff Brooks sold our house in two days; so I definitely though he did a great job. He was very knowledgeable and pleasant to work with.
Mike has the combination of real estate and development experience that fit our needs - property was distressed and a rehab project. So we considered rebuilding with a modular home. That’s how we found Mike. Further assessment and costing led us to abandon the idea as we were too far away to manage a project. It turned out he knew the neighborhood well and worked with us to figure out options, including sale. He and Emily Chappell were helpful, responsive and sold the property within two weeks of listing.
We always felt we were in capable hands with Jeff throughout the entire purchasing process. We would also like to call out Jeff's patience in particular, we were not really sure what we were looking for and what our time frame was. Jeff was patient with us all along the way as we narrowed down our options and schedule. He also was very accessible--we never had to wait more than a few hours to hear from him.
Jeff is the finest real estate professional we have known. He has a deep understanding of the market, provides timely and accurate guidance, and does it all with a pleasant demeanor. Most importantly, Jeff operates with tremendous integrity. Jeff operates consistently in the best interest of the client and removes a lot of the stress that comes with buying/seling real estate. He is quite a guy.
Our experience with Tammy Bass was excellent. Tammy always kept her word and never made excuses--I would highly recommend Tammy to anyone either buying or selling a home on Aquidneck Island.
Cathy Wicks is a stellar agent! I could not have worked with a more dedicated and capable person. Cathy is professional, respectful and always approachable. She provided me with an excellent market analysis and sales plan and found a terrific family to purchase my home. She guided me through the process from start to finish with patience and a smile. I highly recommend her and will continue to work with Cathy on my next purchase!
Paul sold our condo in Newport and did a great job. So we decided to use Paul again. Has great knowledge of the market and we value his options on what real values are. With a line of buyers and agents waiting to view this home while we were inside, Paul had a plan to get it for us. Paul had our interests in mind and helped us get thru this difficult process. Could not have been better We had started looking last fall and could not find what we wanted. Then we started looking again earlier this year and Paul helped us find a place that checked off all our requirements.
My wife and I have used Cathy’s services five times so far. I would highly recommend Cathy for your real estate needs. She is knowledgeable, experienced and very easy to work with. We look forward to working with Cathy on Future deals. Jay and Anna Zambrano.
Cathy did a great job, from start to finish. She is a patient professional. She responded to our needs and even though the Sellers were problematic she advocated for our needs and we have the house of our dreams!
Jeff was great to work with, particularly during some challenging times in our purchasing process. Jeff was very responsive and his local knowledge was, and continues to be, extremely valuable.
This is not my first transaction that Cathy helped to execute. She has being always very resourceful, dedicated, professional, and pleasant to work with. I would highly recommend Cathy to anyone interested in purchase Real Estate in Rhode Island and is looking to have a pleasant experience.
Michele Mullowney is exceptionally professional and personable. She handled all communication in a timely manner, educated us on local markets, negotiated on our behalf and was willing to be present at all meetings and inspections. Michele Mullowney excels in the areas of communication, professionalism and is detail oriented. We found her to be an invaluable assets in obtaining the property and location we were looking for.
Jeff is a stand-up guy and a true Newport local. He was always friendly, responsive, and helpful with any questions we had. If we ever ran into a bump in the road he was always on top of things to make it right. It was a pleasure working with him during this process.
My husband and I have been working with Paul for years. His knowledge of the area, real estate expertise, patience, warmth and overall genuineness has kept us loyal and satisfied clients. Paul is the real deal. He is top notch in his field. Paul is very thorough. He is on top of every detail regardless of how big or small. We have always felt that we are in good hands working with a consummate professional like Paul Tobak. When you first meet Paul, he makes you feel like you have known him for years. He is easy to talk to and very charming. Paul has an enormous amount of enthusiasm for real estate and a depth of industry knowledge and of the area that is hard to find. Paul not only kept us informed of everything during our transaction but he has also reached out after the fact to see if there was anything he could help with. This is the kind of service you don’t see much of any more. My husband and I would highly recommend Paul to anyone looking to buy or sell a home. Paul Tobak is a world class real estate agent. Hogan and associates are lucky to have him.
Emily was so incredibly helpful during the search for and purchase of our first home. She truly went above and beyond to make our purchase happen. Emily was available to take our calls, texts, and emails 24/7. She is very knowledgeable and professional and was able to answer all of our questions throughout the process. She even stopped by to help us unpack! How many real estate agents do that!?! I recommend Emily to anyone looking to purchase or sell their home!
Excellent all around.
Everyone told me I wasn't going to find my dream house the first time around, but I can honestly say that I did and I very much owe that to Jeff Brooks and Hogan Associates! I could not be happier with my new home. I was really apprehensive buying my first house alone, but it was reassuring to have a thoughtful and accommodating team to work with. Jeff was supportive from day one and helped walk me through the home buying process every step of the way. He went out of his way many times to help me look at listings, answer tons of questions and emails, and send comps for listings I was interested in. He was always honest when he thought a house wasn't a good fit and was incredibly knowledgeable about the area. He was never pushy and supported me when I decided to back out of my first accepted offer (and encouraged me when I was stressed out and second guessing things). I really felt that he had my best interests in mind. I can't say enough good things about my experience.
Gordon King was a tremendous help to my family in purchasing a property out of state where we really had no knowledge of the area. He understood our needs and helped us find the perfect place. Even after purchasing our new property, he makes himself available to help us with whatever we need. I look forward to keeping a friendship with Gordon in the future. He has a lovely personality and I do enjoy his company. If any of my friends were interested in purchasing a property in RI I would without hesitation recommend Gordon to be their relator.
Gordon was an outstanding agent in the sale of our home. We had interviewed two other agents in addition to Gordon. They came with the usual market comparison analysis prepared and did a cursory look around the home. Gordon had also done a comparison before he came to the home, but as he spent time in the rooms he decided the home had more valuable features than he expected. He set a new higher sale target price than any of the originals. He was right, we sold it at this much higher price. Gordon's communication throughout the process was excellent. He was easy to reach and returned calls quickly. Gordon handled the Open Houses and many single showings himself so he could represent the home and the area to potential buyers. We also had some unexpected family events during this time and Gordon jumped in to handle everything he could to help us. Gordon is an excellent agent, and a fine person to have on your team!
Holly is amazing, she is patient, kind, knowledgeable and completely guided us throughout this entire process. Holly sold us our 1st house but this time we had to sell and buy and do back to back closings. We had never done this before, it was a bit nerve racking to say the least. She was the best person we dealt with through out the entire process and believe me we had a lot of people that we really liked. To us Holly is a true expert in this field, we purchased another home that used another company and I have to say they didn't even stand a chance compared to Holly and Hogan Associates. We'd like to thank Holly and all of you for this amazing experience and for finding us our beautiful home.
Always there for me any questions were answered felt very comfortable
Tammy Bass was committed to ensuring everything went smoothly with the sale of my house. She was in constant communication and very professional in all aspects throughout the process. I highly recommend her!!
Jeff and I have worked together in the past and we have a great working relationship. He always asks the right questions and has the right answers. In my opinion Jeff is the standard bearer for what a real estate agent should be.
Tammy is the most thoughtful, informed, patient and supportive realtor in the business. She was on QUITE the journey with us. We found our perfect place thanks to her hard work.
Wonderful, positive experience with Tammy! We were purchasing from the West coast and couldn’t view houses in person, Tammy patiently FaceTimed the homes with us as well as taking video walk throughs we could watch later. She was extremely knowledgeable about the area as well as personal recommendations for inspectors, lenders, that led to a wonderful, positive experience!
I bought a new home and sold my home in a very short period of time. I have had very little experience with these things and sometimes didn't even know which questions to ask. Holly guided me through these without ever making me feel foolish. She helped me to find a great banker and helped me to know how to be prepared for every step of the way. When I was overwhelmed by the inevitable complications she stepped in and took over. She went well beyond what should have been expected. I could not have managed without her help. I am able to move ahead and enjoy my new home now, for which I am very thankful.
Good job
Janie is the best, she goes out of her way to help you. Keeps you well informed and makes sure we have the latest info. AAAA+ agent. Janie kept us well informed, everything went as it was suppose to. Her knowledge as a agent is like we knew her forever. She is kind, smart and a great person. She is excellent in all things that she does. Overall experience was excellent.
I can't express enough how grateful I am for Emily Chappell’s unwavering support and dedication throughout the entire sales process. As an out-of-state client, I was initially concerned about the logistics and complexities involved in selling my property. However, Emily's expertise, tireless efforts, and constant communication reassured me every step of the way. Emily seamlessly coordinated everything, from the initial listing to the final sale. Her market knowledge and astute pricing strategy ensured that we attracted the right buyers. Her communication was stellar, always keeping me in the loop, regardless of the time zone difference. Most importantly, Emily's genuine care and commitment made me feel like I had a trusted partner on the ground, handling every detail with the utmost professionalism and care. Selling a property remotely was made incredibly easy, thanks to her expertise and dedication. I cannot recommend Emily highly enough, and I'm truly thankful for her outstanding work in making this sale a success. If you're looking for a realtor who excels in all sales aspects, especially as an out-of-state client, Emily is the one to choose.
Wonderful service. Kevan Campbell and his team are amazing. Kevan took excellent care of what we needed to get everything done regarding the sale of our home.
Hillary Olinger was professionally excellent from start to finish. I received several offers and accepted asking price. Her attention to my concerns throughout the entire sales' process and closing was so appreciated. I highly recommend Hillary to anyone wanting a stress-free experience in selling their home. She really knows her craft with a work ethic to match! "Thank you, Hillary! Job well done! "
Kevan is a very nice guy and pleasant to work with. He was very helpful to find workmen to fix and clean up the property for renting and sale.
Jeff was professional and personable. He is a great communicator and readily shared information about appointments and feedback from the showings. He was always available to talk and was committed to doing everything possible to move the sales process along. We felt confident that he could negotiate our sale and close the deal. In short, we had a great experience.
It was incredibly important for us to love our realtor as we knew how much contact we would have with her. The level of trust, reliability, professionalism and honesty was of utmost importance when choosing to work with Hillary. She ticked all our boxes and went above and beyond to sell our beautiful home. We have used other realtors in the past and the difference was remarkable. We will use her again in the future for sure. Thank you so much Hillary.
A good friend of mine recommended Tammy Bass and she certainly did not disappoint. I can say with confidence that not only is she an incredible realtor, she is the sole reason we were even able to buy a house. Thanks Tammy!!
Diane Harrison is a consummate professional who represented me as a seller and and buyer during the last 8 months. As a newly widowed client, I faced the task of liquidating investment property, downsizing from a large property with two homes, including an occupied rental and purchasing a new home in a specific neighborhood near my daughter's family. The process was complicated and would have been impossible for me without her support, advice and professional expertise. She was a cheerful, technically knowledgeable, supportive partner for me and I needed all her support to navigate the complicated demands of the task in front of me. Diane Harrison was the best agent I could ever dreamed of having with me during this difficult and complex journey. If it were not for Diane Harrison I do not believe I could have succeeded.
We were happy to have Cathy on our team as our facilitator. She was conscientious and very detailed. Cathy Wicks was very easy to reach by text message. Got right back to us with answers to all our questions. Awesome broker!!!
Tammy truly did an amazing job helping my husband and I find the perfect home for our family. She went above and beyond throughout the whole process. Tammy was always available for any questions we had. We felt this process was easy because of all her hard work she did for us. We cannot thank her enough for helping us become first time home owners.
Tom is always responsive, professional, and knowledgable- we enjoyed working with him and will refer him to friends and family
Diane did not provide a hasty recommendation for the sales price. She did her research and analysis and only then, did she provide her opinion of what the Asking Price should be and supplied her documentation to support it. The infrastructure of the house was in great shape, but was cluttered. Diane rolled up her sleeves and assisted myself and another estate worker with both physical work and helpful recommendations as to the disposition/donations of all of the furniture. Her help was invaluable. This was the sale of a home owned by my uncle and was part of his estate with the primary assets in the state of CT. As a result, myself and the other co-executor (an attorney) were unfamiliar with the laws and regulations in the state of RI. Diane helped guide us with this out-of-state transaction and made it easy for us to work knowledgably with the our RI lawyer. The overall experience with Diane, from both the attorney co-executor and me (family co-executor), was superb. We could not be more pleased with our decision to go with Diane and Hogan associates.
Hillary was an amazing realtor that helped us with every step of selling our old home and buying our new home. Hillary is a wonderful realtor who is always okay with a chat about anything you need help with. She always remains professional while also being tons of fun to talk to.
Kevan is excellent, he knew what we were looking for and found it for us, more then once. KEVAN NEVER PRESSURED US BUT ALWAYS KEPT US IN MIND AND KEPT US UP TO DATE ON ALL RELEVANT LISTINGS, HE DOESNT GIVE UP LOOKING. KEVAN KNOWS EVERYTHING NEWPORT AND CAN HELP YOU WITH ANYTHING YOU NEED, BEFORE, DURING AND AFTER YOUR PURCHASE. WE WERE LUCKY TO HAVE HIM AS OUR AGENT AND STILL UTILIZE HIS KNOWLEDGE AND EXPERTISE AS OWNERS TODAY. Kevan is there for us 7 days a week and has the answer or will get the answer you need Kevan takes care of it all and made us super comfortable and at ease with the process
I've known Jeff Brooks for years in a professional capacity (unrelated to real estate) as we are both very involved in the community. After speaking with a friend in common, we both thought Jeff would be the right agent to sell my house. He met all my expectations, but he also surprised me with the very high quality of his work. The visual presentation of the house was well thought out and well executed. He kept working on it to get it right. His calming, assured demeanor was particularly helpful during inevitable moments of stress. His knowledge of the local market is deep and broad. This adds up to great service. I would highly recommend Jeff as a real estate agent.
Barbara is simply the best real estate professional you can have as a partner. She is persistent, reasonable, thoughtful, intelligent, creative, and a joy to engage with! She has assisted us with our properties over the past 20 years and has always been consistent. She is honest, straight forward, completely trustworthy, energetic, and an absolute delight to do business with. Lucky are the persons who are represented by Barbara O'Reilly in their real estate transactions. It simply does not get any better.
As a prior military spouse, Tammy was the perfect choose to help us as we relocated from Seattle to Newport. She was a wealth of knowledge and encouragement every step along the way, and never missed a beat when it came to assisting us in our search. She was fun to home shop with and knew all the ins and outs about the locations we were looking into. Thanks Tammy for such a great experience!!
Paul is a knowledgeable real estate agent. He is full of great suggestions and works closely with the client on getting their house to market. I could not have asked for a better, more trustworthy agent. Thank you Paul for all that you did for my family and making this sale possible!
Everything went according to our expectations which were realized. Emily handled the property very professionally and was able to answer all of our questions and guide us through the entire process.
I interviewed several local brokers and found Leslie to be remarkably different from the others. She was smart,sincere, informative and genuinely interested in learning what was important to us. I trusted her from that first meeting onwards. I would highly recommend Leslie, she is wonderful as well as successful!
We chose Michele Mullowney to represent us in looking for a summer home in Newport. Of course, we had many choices in realtors and chose Michele for her expertise, knowledge of "everything Newport' and her strong work ethic. In addition, she is wonderful person that cares about the buyer as much as the seller. She has the ability to be firm and also very fair in her negotiations with all parties. We would highly recommend Michele to anyone looking for a home in Newport.
New to the process of purchasing a short sale, Jeff's dedication and perseverance to closing the deal while the bank was playing hard ball, was the main reason we stuck with it. Being a short sale the tough negations would have probably caused our family to put off our dreams of owning a home in Middletown. However, Jeff was able to step in and ensure we had our ducks in a row, and now we are raising our family in the home we dreamed of. Thanks Jeff!
We worked with Meredith to purchase our first home. She was incredibly patient with us throughout the whole process and was very easy to work with. She helped make the entire experience enjoyable and I would recommend her to anyone who is looking to purchase!
Marlene handled out house hunting in a very professional manner. She listened to our needs and desires in a new home. She sought out properties for us that would be within our budget and handled a difficult buyers market for us. She has always been honest upfront and helpful in any way she could related to our househunting and negotiating. We appreciate her so much! We would recommend her to anyone buying or selling in the area!
Marty has been our broker/realtor for many past sales and purchases and she makes all the paperwork processing, home inspections, open houses, closing support, and final walk throughs very smoothly and professionally. We would have no one other than Marty Easley as our broker.
“Leslie has represented me on multiple sales and purchases on Aquidneck Island. She has helped me buy and sell, lots, luxury custom homes, spec houses and most recently a waterview home ready for renovation and resale. She has great contacts, exceptional people skills and I look forward to working with her for years to come.”
This is the 2nd time we've used Kelly Powers for a real estate transaction and both times she has been an outstanding advocate both for us as buyers and just recently as sellers. Kelly is very detailed oriented and was on top of each issue that arose with our sale and was in communication with us every step of the way. In short you really couldn't have anybody better in your corner for any real estate transaction!
I would highly recommend Tammy Bass! This was an emotional move for us and Tammy never let us sweat the small stuff. She was organized, thorough, professional, and most importantly - kind! We can't thank her enough!!
My step-daughter Jeanne was also with me in many of my meetings with Marty. I know from our discussions together throughout the sale Jeanne's impressions of and gratitude for Marty's help would be the same as mine.
She was amazing. So patient, helpful and supportive! I can't say enough about how wonderful she was. As a first time home seller...I knew next to nothing. She gently led me through all the ups and downs of trying to sell such an old house. She believed in the value of my home. Her help and kindness were priceless.
We sought to work with Leslie Hogan after meeting with her, after we had interviewed multiple agents from other companies. Leslie was very knowledgeable, unpretentious, and creative with how to feature the most interesting parts of the property. She had clear strategies for promoting the house, and for organizing web and other coverage, as well as creating events to maximize the number of people who would see the property. Leslie understood items such as character of the property, as well as positioning based on data, such as understanding the size of the house relative to its location in town, which other agents appeared to overlooked. She clearly engaged well with prospective buyers and other agents as well. Selling a house can have its ups and downs, particularly with an old house. Leslie Hogan's manner kept things moving forward at all times in a very positive way! She made all the difference in the sale of our property
A knowledgeable, experienced professional.
I have now worked with Matt on 5 separate real estate transactions and that is not by accident. He and his agency are the best in the business.
Leslie Hogan’s approach in handling this property was key. She immediately understood the history of the property and what it meant to us. Leslie asked a lot of questions and then set a plan with an aggressive timeline. There were many years of accumulated items to be packed up and moved to get ready for showings. We met the challenge and the house looked great. Leslie’s personality put us at ease yet she kept us on task. Her real estate knowledge and professionalism are outstanding. We are so pleased and grateful to Leslie for handling the sale of our home.
Caroline went above and beyond in every step of the purchase . Knowledgable effient and always able to reach her even it was only by email while she traveled out of the country , (they were always answered promptly )
I cannot say enough good things about our experience working with Tammy. She is extremely knowledgeable about the RI real estate market and she has a long list of reputable vendors and referrals for any project. In the event that she doesn't know the answer about something (which rarely happens!) she has a great network or experts that she can contact to get the answer quickly. We have bought and sold properties all over the US and Tammy is by far the best agent we have ever worked with.
Gordon is not only our agent but has become a friend throughout the years of working together. He is trustworthy, kind, and genuinely cared about finding us the perfect home, which he did! We are very grateful to have worked with him throughout this process and I highly recommend him to anyone who is looking for the best realtor in the Newport area.
Gordon went and continues to go above and beyond for us, even after the close of our home. He was with us during the purchase negotion, keeping all parties informed and updated. He has been incredibly helpful to us finding the services that we need since our close- blinds for the windows, internet and security companies, even taking the trash out to the curb for us on trash day (Monday) when we were unable to. Gordon is incredibly knowledgeable about the area, and has taught us so much about the history of our new town in a fun, interesting manner. We are so in love with our new home! Thank you Gordon, for bringing it to our attention and hanging in there with us!
We have worked with Janie on a number of transactions and have always been extremely satisfied. She has understood what we are looking for in regards to our investment strategy and brought us interesting properties and opportunities that we may have not otherwise found or thought of. She was also diligent and hard working when marketing and selling properties for us. I would certainly recommend Janie Aracil to future buyers and sellers.
Tammy was great from start to finish. Ensuring that what is a stressful period went smoothly! Would recommend her to everyone and anyone.
Tammy was excellent throughout the entire process. We chose her for her connections to the military community for this specific listing. Tammy was fast and very reliable. We will certainly be using Tammy again in the future! Thanks!
Meredith was outstanding to work with. She kept us up to date the entire time. It was a pleasure working with her.
The negotiation process took months to complete, and Leslie was extremely patient, understanding and professional in communicating with us, our lawyer and the sellers' realtor. She is very familiar with the Newport area, and has, in fact, introduced us to some of our future neighbors (at our encouragement, of course).
Emily Chappell was amazing. She went above and beyond in every possible way. She was a pleasure to work with. I highly recommend her, she is the best.
Have you ever been involved in a transaction where you started to wonder if the people on your team really had your best interest at heart? If you choose Tom Rao to help you, that thought will never cross your mind. Tom is laser focused on doing what you want and need while providing great advice that comes from his knowledge and experience gained from working and living in the Newport area. Tom has extensive contacts and will share them with you as you progress through your deal, and that extends to the time after the deal has closed. Need help finding a home inspector, attorney, the phone numbers to call to connect your utilities, insurance, just ask Tom. He will be there when you need him, even if at the moment you haven't figured out that you need him yet. He will keep the process moving when it wants to stall. Tom even took the trouble to print out 400 pages of documents he thought I should retain for my files so that I wouldn't have to do it myself. If you want a successful transaction ask Tom Rao and Hogan Associates to help you.
Gordon King was great. I've owned 6 houses in my life and he was the best broker I've ever dealt with. 1) great local knowledge 2) extremely personable 3) successful marketing plan 4) always felt like he had my best interests in mind Gordon King was the only one I dealt with Negotiations with buyers was hard, but Gordon King was a great intermediary and saved me a lot of pain. For example, he lined up both an HVAC and a plumber to handle issues in the house Gordon elicited a lot of trust from me. I always felt he had my best interests.
As a first time home buyer, choosing a realtor was my first big decision to make. My knowledge of the home buying process was slim to none and I wasnât even sure where to start. Meredith was nothing short of amazing to work with. She walked me through the home buying experience and explained it in terms that was easy For me to understand. She always answered my (many) questions with quick and friendly responses. She put my concerns first, and was great at negotiating to make sure that the home that I was purchasing was move-in ready and everything was in good functioning condition. I will absolutely recommend Meredith to all of my friends and family, and also put any of my future home purchases in her hands again!!
Everyone told me I wasn't going to find my dream house the first time around, but I can honestly say that I did and I very much owe that to Jeff Brooks! I could not be happier with my new home. I was really apprehensive buying my first house alone, but it was reassuring to have a thoughtful and accommodating team to work with. Jeff was supportive from day one and helped walk me through the home buying process every step of the way. He went out of his way many times to help me look at listings, answer tons of questions and emails, and send comps for listings I was interested in. He was always honest when he thought a house wasn't a good fit and was incredibly knowledgeable about the area. He was never pushy and supported me when I decided to back out of my first accepted offer (and encouraged me when I was stressed out and second guessing things). I really felt that he had my best interests in mind. I can't say enough good things about my experience and I highly recommend working with Jeff!
I have worked with Leslie on a number of complicated real estate transaction including the development of a large subdivision, vacant land sales, and the recent acquisition of a water view parcel soon to become condominiums. She is a consummate professional with extensive local knowledge, excellent marketing skills, a cool head and strong work ethic. I recommend Leslie highly and hope to do may more deals with her in the future. I have vast experience in the buying and selling of real estate over many years and have never worked with anyone who has done a better job in all respects than Leslie Hogan and her team.
Kevan was always accessible and immediate to our questions. He connected us with our new home and helped us close the deal in just a few days. Thank you Kevan!
Jeff is the man
Tom Rao is a Real Estate Pro! This is the 4th time our family has used Tom’s outstanding talents and abilities. Our past experiences with Tom have turned out so well, that as expected...we are again very PLEASED!!! Our condo was an estate sale and Tom tied up every loose end perfectly. It went into a bidding war on day 3 and Tom negotiated the final sale with ease. He was very attentive to every detail. Warm demeanor and an excellent communicator. The condo sold well above asking...Happy Sellers, Happy Buyers, Professional Realtor. A Wonderful tribute to our late Mother. Our Thanks Tom!!! Sue, Steve, and Rob Guida. South Kingstown, RI
Barbara is an excellent resource and makes sure you look at the buying or selling of a house in a variety of ways. She is always willing to go the extra mile to get whatever you need done and looks out for your best interest.
I was previously employed by Hogan Associates and knew of their reputation and success in the real estate industry. Knowing Leslie personally, I felt strongly that she would be the realtor of choice! Leslie Hogan is a true professional and extremely knowledgeable of all aspects necessary for a successful home sale. I would not hesitate to recommend Hogan Associates to anyone looking to sell their home!
Jeff made the process of selling our first home a breeze! He is increbly knowledgeable and patient. He helped walked us through the process of selling and was available to answer any questions along the way. He coordinated all of the services we needed to help get our house on the market. He listed our house and had it under contract within 2 weeks with multiple offers above asking. This is the third time we've used Jeff for a transaction and would recommend him to anyone looking to buy or sell.
Originally I was looking at a property on line and requested information. Kevan responded within seconds. We met up and I was very impressed by his knowledge and follow up. I decided I would work with Kevan moving forward. It was refreshing when I would tell him a place was not for me and not get the "normal" feedback that I could change things within the property and what a great buy. He simply stated we would keep looking and he would keep all channels open and if anything came down line he would contact me. I was impressed that Kevan was more concerned about getting the right property for me and not just thinking about the final sale. I have worked with other realtors and Kevan is by far the most professional, helpful and knowledgeable. His follow up skill are by far superior than others. It was refreshing that I did not have to call to follow up on what was going on. He never gave me time, he always got back to me! Even within the details of a condo's management and how well the association was managed he was able to provide insight. For the property I purchased, everything fell into place perfectly. Kevan had sent me a text at 2 pm in the afternoon on this property that was just getting onto the market. He knew this was the location I wanted and made sure he sent to me first thing. By 5:30 pm I was at the property and by 7 pm I made an offer. Kevan worked with the other realtor and made it clear on my offer and an answer was needed by the next day. We had an answer that night and all the pieces to the puzzle fell into place. Working with an individual that is trying to meet my needs and not just thinking about a sale was refreshing. Getting me into the right property at the right time and the right price was Kevan's priority.
We loved TOM. He is a great negotiator and tons of fun to work with. We look forward to working with him again
Jeff solicited the sale from me as I had not planned on selling the land. He advised the pricing would be in my favor and he was right. It is his doing that I made the profit on the sale. Thank Jeff!!
Lynn Creighton is one of the best experiences I have had purchasing property. She is professional, polite, on time for showing as well as phone/text communication. I couldn't have asked for more as a buyer.
Colleen was amazing! My sister and I live out of state, and she communicated clearly and timely, and always answered all of our questions. She never made me feel like a burden, even when meeting electricians at the house to make a repair.
Lynn is particularly knowledgable about the condominium market. Her attention to detail and book of resources to get through the inspection phase was especially valuable.
It was great working with Caroline Richards for our purchase in Newport. Very knowledgeable re the local marketing, super reachable, and constantly 'on it'. She does a great job helping you figure out what you want and working through the options and decision making process with you.
Matt is a Star.
Holly was a great agent !!! Holly wanted to make sure that I got the best property for the best value. She had my best intrest the whole time. I fee lucky I found her. And I would recomend her to any family or friends.
Mr. Campbell was spot on, his professionalism and the timely manner in which he handled requests that I gave him was VERY satisfying. He was easy to communicate with, was very attentive to my concerns made my buying experience in Newport that much easier!!!!! The seller was not an easy person to do business with/ was very one sided. Mr. Campbell was very instrumental in negotiating certain aspects of our differences which we eventually agreed upon. GREAT job Kevan!!! Prior to this real estate venture I never even knew Mr Campbell existed. I am glad I got to do business with Mr Campbell as my representative!!!! He was extremely helpful through the whole process. If and when I am ready to purchase another property in Newport you can rest a sure that Kevan Campbell will definitely be the individual I will be contacting!!!!! THANKS AGAIN KEVAN!!!!
Cathy was absolutely wonderful to deal with. I could not recommend her more highly to anyone looking to buy or sell in RI. She was professional, kind, funny, and really, got us a fantastic price for our place. You will be so happy if you go with Cathy. We were!
Leslie kept us informed every step of the sales process and had a great upbeat attitude. She was very helpful and good with all the details.
I would highly recommend Michele Mullowney as your realtor. She never gave up searching for my home and was very knowledgeable regarding every aspect of a home purchase experience. She even helped me to decide the placement of my furniture and the color of my new carpeting. She is a true gem!
Tom was referred by a good friend of ours and I like the fact that he lives in Newport and knows the local market. Tom was great! He was very good about communicating key information throughout the process, especially since the listing agent wasn't very involved in the transaction. He even met the HVAC guys at the condo for us since we live out of state. We would definitely use Tom's services again and are looking forward to having him as our new neighbor!
We cannot Thank Jeff enough for all of his help, guidance, support and knowledge of the area and market in working with us to find our dream home in Newport. He listens to your desires and showed us areas we never thought we would be interested in and that is how we found our new home. He is patient, always available, great negotiator and has many excellent connections with bank financing, inspectors and others if needed. We cannot speak more highly of Jeff. He is there for YOU. Thank you Jeff!
Have such a wonderful Realtor in Meredith. Other than our Realtor, she is a great person!
Tammy was fantastic! Very communicative.
Tom was very cordial and always professional in his manner of speaking and in general. It was a pleasant experience, overall.
Marty did a great job I was dealing with personal issues and she took over and made my participation in the sale as easy as possible Thank you Marty
Matt and his tram earned every penny of the commission.
If you're thinking of using Caroline Richards....read on! We chose to use Caroline as we were impressed by her intense Wall Street job she had before she went into cutthroat real estate. We could tell she'd be a serious, hardworking realtor. We were right. Caroline sold our house in 24 hours to the first couple who walked in the door- and not wanting to put all our eggs in that basket, she nimbly lined up two back-up offers! All of her beautiful marketing campaign never had to be used in our sale though the website did go up and it was gorgeous. Her pricing of our house was dead-on and we didn't question it for a split second. On a professional and personal level, Ms. Richards was warm, totally accessible and helped us navigate the sale of our house with finesse and a sunny disposition every step of the way. If you follow Caroline's advice, you won't be disappointed!
Holly McLear was familiar with the property and was very knowledgeable about the local market. Her list of comparisons and suggested price was right on. The market was hot and the buyers came in with an offer just above the asking price. We were pleased with her handling of the sale and her on the spot responsiveness.
Tammy was the best!! As we all know, selling a house can be stressful, Tammy was super professional, quick to respond to any questions and was over the top helpful. She's just wonderful to work with and I would recommend her to anyone looking to buy or sell in the area and would definitely use her services again!
Kevin is a diligent, hard working Realtor with a solid understanding of the local market. He offered sage advice, handled multiple offers with ease, proved to be a strong negotiator and communicated regularly throughout the process. It was a seamless and fast transaction.
Paul Tobak always make you feel comfortable that he is working on your behalf. He tells you how it really is and not what he thinks you want to hear. His professionalism is on display from start to finish. He is always their for you. I have recommended Paul on many occasions.
Chris is extremely professional, knowledgeable, and honest. The house search was seamless and easy, we found our perfect property and were able to close within a month of starting our search. He is well known and respected in the industry as everyone we spoke to and dealt with (including other property owners) knew of and respected him. Could not recommend him highly enough, he was an absolute pleasure to work with.
Tammy was amazing to work with. Buying a home is very stressful and she was very easy to get in contact with you and answered all my questions!
Tammy was always available to answer any questions we had and was so quick with responses and contacting sellers for us - I believe that’s why we were able to be successful, especially in this market. Her knowledge of the area and the real estate process and her ability to relate as a military family were so helpful, especially considering we went through this whole process while living in another state.
I enjoyed working with Leslie, who was upbeat, efficient, sweated the details, followed up on outstanding paperwork, touched base efficiently with our attorney, and generally made the sale of the property smooth.
I have worked with Meredith LeBlanc twice, once on the purchase of the a house and again on the sale of a house. She is a caring, professional and knowledgeable individual. Everything was completed on schedule and Meredith always kept me apprised. I would high recommend Meredith for your real estate needs.
My first experience with Gordon King was a random email I sent him regarding the possibility of purchasing an income property in Newport. Not necessarily 7 Sylvan, but any property. Gordon replied to me late in the evening and we exchanged a few emails after 10 pm. I was impressed by this. Additionally the content, personal opinions, inquiries, and blunt fact discussion in these emails was far more impressive and informative than any previous exchange with any brokers that I had engaged with so far. When Gordon answered correctly and intelligently, All of my "Newport specific" questions and concerns, I knew right away that I had a winner to assist me. Once I visited the properties that he suggested, and did the research he outlined, I was convinced that my current needs were not being met with my broker, and decided I was going to proceed with purchase intentions and ultimately offer on 7 Sylvan exclusively and solely with Gordon. Some people are just really good at what they do, and with that, make others better at what they do. Gordon is that Man. Superior knowledge, Honorable, Professional, Personal, Earnest, and Thorough!....Very Thorough!! I can't predict what or which income property I'll buy next, But I can Predict with 100% certainty, that Gordon King will present my offer and close my next deal. Thank You Gordon King. Job VERY well Done! JJ Supple 401 Realty Associates, LLC Gordon King's Local Knowledge was critical and defining for my decision making to purchase in Newport. Superior attention to details. Listened to MY concerns and needs throughout the transaction process and he capitalized on all aspects. JJ Supple 401 Realty Associates, LLC
Matt Hadfield and his Group are fantastic! I can't recommend them highly enough. They were sensitive and respectful of the emotional challenges of showing and selling my home and are complete professionals, taking care of the big and small issues involved in the process. Matt is a gifted negotiator, wise beyond his years, and combines the highest level of professionalism with a generous heart. He sensitively guided me through the entire process and delivered a near perfect sales result in record time! Choosing him as my realtor was one of the best decisions I've made and reduced the stress of selling my home tremendously. Thank you, Matt, and the Matt Hadfield Group! Michele Mulowney, who works with Matt, was just wonderful with me and with prospective buyers. She is warm, considerate, respectful, calm and attentive...the perfect combination for a sales person at the point of contact with homeowner and buyers. She communicated well with me and handled many of the details involved in listing and selling. The photographer, whose name I can't recall, was also great and the rest of the office must have been doing their jobs backing up Matt and Michele because no one skipped a beat!
We needed an agent who was trustworthy and a good communicator, since we were buying remotely. Tammy Bass understood exactly what we were looking for and was always quick to respond, which was important in a competitive market. I would HIGHLY recommend Tammy to anyone looking for a home in this area without the slightest reservation.
In 2008-2009, I tried to buy a boat slip. Matt did everything he could to make it happen....I was the one that could not put the last piece of the transaction together...so I failed in the purchase.,,,,,,BUT I never forgot the effort Matt expended for me. RE Matt...think - knowledgeable, reliable ,highest of integrity, a "go-to" for your real estates needs Nicole Nicoletta....a top shelf assistant for Matt.....A keeper A go-to without question.
Jeff is an all-star. He took care of us from start to finish with Grace speed enthusiasm and attention to detail. We were buyers and have had the opportunity to buy previously from other agents and his service is far and beyond others. Truly a pleasure to work with in the process. We would absolutely use Jeff in the future.
Tom's demeanor was professional and confident, which made me feel that I made the right choice to have him list my property. His knowledge and expertise made the process of selling my house easy to understand and stress-free. Remarkably pleased!!
Cathy I look forward to working with you again soon! Thank you for helping me purchase my first home. I will always remember this positive and outstanding experience and working closely with you has been a pleasure!
Professional, truest caring, goes above abs beyond to make our first home owners experience amazing.
The factors that persuaded me to work with Lynn Creighton, beyond the necessary condition of understanding the real estate business, were her professionalism, her thoroughness, and her integrity. It was as painless as a real estate transaction is likely to be. I was very satisfied with both Lynn Creighton and Hogan Associates.
Matt Hadfield worked hard for over a year to sell my property and more than earned his commission.
Diane has great local market knowledge and is very easy and patient in working with clients. It is always a joy to work with her on both the buying and selling end of things.
Leslie Hogan was recommended by the Lawyer who was handling the estate settlement of 336 Boulevard. Her first impression with the executor of the estate was immediate and no other broker was interviewed. Due to the result of the sale of 336 Boulevard and the way the sale was handled Leslie was hands down the choice for another family estate settlement of 36B Glen Meade. Leslie and her co-workers deserve the rating of excellent. They worked as a team which what a seller needs because you always had someone to call on should an issue arise at any time. When you work with a group that works as a team it is very obvious. Leslie was our sole contact for 336 Boulevard and she was always available and there for every step that was needed. For 43B Glen Meade, Leslie, Michele, and Matt were utilized to sell and resolve more questions asked by the purchaser then I would have thought possible. Even the closing was complex with the purchaser not able to attend and that went off without a hitch. Both property closings were handled in a professional fashion, 336 Boulevard was single family residence and 43B Glen Meade was a condo and that was a very complex sale with lots of questions put forward by the purchaser which required close co-ordination between the seller and agent. Leslie and agent Michele handled the resolution of those questions very professionally and were able to obtain the information or advise that was needed. Can't say anymore then "Excellent"
Liz exceeded expectations by a wide margin. A terrific listener as she really understood our goals and propelled us forward. Her diligence and attention to detail is un matched. 1,000 % satisfied :) So many moving parts, especially as we bumped up against holiday time. Liz was always under control , prioritizing what was most important in the moment and offered very sound guidance along the way Liz is pure class - top notch professional. Really top notch ! Devon helped host an important meeting in Hogans offices and was welcoming and warm.
Matt has exceptional knowledge of the local market and is an invaluable resource when evaluating a real estate purchase on Aquidneck Island.
Cathy is an expert in her field. I appreciated her steady guidance, oversight, and insights. I also appreciated her kindness, tactfulness, and her sense of humor! Highly recommend!
Selling our family home after our parents passed away wasn't easy for a few reasons. First, we were working from out of state. Second, we had a financial responsibility to our siblings to get the best price we could. Third, the property held so many memories that we knew the process would be emotional. Working with Tammy Bass was one of the best decisions we made. Tammy was resourceful, priced the house well, and kept us informed throughout the process. Tammy Bass negotiated in our best interest. A joy to work with. Completely professional while also being someone you'd want as a next door neighbor. She understood what we wanted and needed -- and delivered. With Tammy Bass, you get the added bonus of Kate and Lynn. We feel so lucky to have had the three of them as a team.
We purchased a property 2 years ago and Kevan was awesome and continued to be a resource for us since then. We didn’t hesitate to contact him again for our purchase this summer and would always go to him for any real estate needs in the future. He is the best!!
Elizabeth Enochs did a fantastic job of valuing, marketing, and selling our Newport condo. She took great care in learning about the property, and clearly had a keen sense of the Newport market. Since we were selling from out of state at the time, we truly appreciated Elizabeth's accessibility, and her willingness to take care of all local details related to staging and the sale. We would definitely recommend Elizabeth to others looking to sell in Newport.
Jeff was always monitoring the situation. He would always answer the phone or return your call promptly, he was almost always available and would use emails and internet effectively. Just a great experience and I hope he cando the same for my next property for sale 35-37 Hornet. Steve P
Tammy was awesome. Trying to purchase a home, during a pandemic, and from over 700 miles away was stressful. Tammy went about helping me as if she was looking for a home for herself and her own family and that made what started out as a stressful process a lot less stressful and more enjoyable. I was able to find the perfect home and day by day I fall more in love with it. My smooth transition was made possible because Tammy is so absolutely amazing at her job.
We had worked with Michele previously and had always enjoyed working with her. She is very knowledgeable and helpful! Michele is great and she went above and beyond to make sure things went smoothly. We live out of state, so she helped with a lot of things that we couldn't do ourselves.
"We are writing to share with you our delightful experience working with Paul Tobak on the sale of our beloved family home in September 2024. Paul was extremely knowledgeable, professional, and personal throughout the entire process. We communicated with him for several months before we listed the property, and he was always patient and very helpful in addressing our questions and concerns. Once we made the decision to list, the process was fast and efficient. He guided us through all the paperwork, thoughtfully recommended the asking price, and made an excellent suggestion regarding a needed repair. Several serious offers came in almost immediately. He helped us determine which offer to accept, always understanding our concerns for our long-time neighbors. We put our trust in Paul, and he over-delivered. The date of the listing to the final closing was short and sweet. We highly recommend Paul Tobak and are available to be a reference for him as needed."
Cathy is a great broker, always very helpful, easy to reach and quick to grasp my needs. She was instrumental in this purchase. I trust and really in Cathy’s opinion when dealing with any real estate investment in Rhode Island. This is not the first time she was my broker and I count with Cathy with future purchases and rental deals.
We are very satisfied "return customers" with Cathy Wicks. She helped very effectively with the purchase of one house eight years ago, so she was the natural choice for another round of a sale and a new purchase. We anticipate that we will turn to her again whenever we are in the market!
Jeff was great! Can't say enough good things about him- I would definitely recommend him and the Hogan Associates team to anyone looking to buy in the Newport area. It was a tough market for a buyer, but I couldn't have asked for a better advocate through the homebuying process.
Cathy is a pleasure to work with. She is professional, friendly and thorough.
Kevan Campbell is the best and hardest working agent I have encountered in my 40 years in real estate. He is extremely thorough. Kevan took care of inspections and utilities without involving me Kevan sold my property for a higher price then other agents would consider. His knowledge of the market and his ability to identify potential buyers enabled him to determine a price beneficial to me.
Matt was a fabulous choice of real estate agent for us. He both sold our house and we called him in to be our agent in buying another. Very professional. Very personable. Full of great advice. Highly recommend him!
When I first spoke with my agent, Tom Rao, he spent a significant amount of time with me discussing the parameters of what we were looking for in a home. He researched the comps in the neighborhood we zeroed in on and he had a good feel for the pricing of housing in the area. We had a very good experience using Tom Rao. I'd recommend him to anyone interested in purchasing a new home.
Tom Rao is the best! He is patient and persistent. He is a go getter for sure. He has a can do attitude. And he sold our property in a timely fashion.
Leslie was amazing. My husband and I have been searching for years for the perfect house and Leslie has been there for us every step of the way. Her knowledge of the area along with her expertise in managing the entire process made it such a great experience. To finish it off ... after seeing tons of houses we actually bought one that she found for us prior to it hitting the market. Getting to the house before anyone else was definitely a factor in us finally getting our dream home. Thank you Leslie for everything - your the best.
Cathy is an exceptional worker, but also a person of great character and integrity. She serves her client tirelessly, and having worked with many other real estate agents on other purchases, it is extremely easy for me to say that Cathy brings integrity and ethics to every transaction. She is a star.
I chose Leslie Hogan because she has an impeccable reputation as an outstanding realtor for high-end properties throughout the Newport, RI area. Since she commands an excellent understanding of the local the real estate market my condo was appropriately priced to sell promptly. Leslie is a consummate real estate sales professional. She is an excellent communicator, a hard worker, and most of all a genuinely kind and caring person. I thoroughly enjoyed my overall sales experience and would highly recommend her!
Tammy was amazing to work with in such a tough and competitive market. She is extremely knowledgeable and friendly and she has a great network in the area which made our home buying experience as smooth as it could be. Thank you, Tammy!
We went under contract while in another state. He was our eyes and ears on the ground. He took pictures and videos he sent us as if we were there. He met with my sister who lives in the area and that was very helpful. Kevan Campbell was always upbeat positive, available and very professional. The closing went well. Oh my God, He went the extra mile. I was staying at the unit, a couple of days and developed severe allergies and I had company coming to spend one night, who has pet allergies (prior owners had a nice little dog) The place was very clean and presented very nice. I just got a new vacuum. Kevan had made arrangements to have a usually a very reliable person come over to take care of this concern while I was out of town overnight. The person had a family emergency. Guest who came over to take care of this concern, Kevan Campbell. He got out the new vacuum cleaner and he took care of the problem with the most upbeat, positive attitude with no complaining. That is going beyond the normal client/agent relationship. He is all about customer service. Hogan Associates should be very pleased to have someone of this caliber, ability and skill set. Very well rounded and does his all to make you feel at home in your new home. Thank you again Kevan Campbell, job well done.
If you are selling your house, don't walk but RUN to Hogan Associates and contact Jeff Brooks. I always thought the best things you can have in life it a great relationship, a great family a great job, a great doctor and a great auto mechanic. BUT....when you're selling your VERY HARD TO SELL home, the best thing in your life during that arduous and very difficult time is a broker like Jeff Brooks. We had had a poor experience with our previous broker and were convinced we were better off selling the place on our own. Jeff cold called me and to say the least, at first, I wasn't interested in getting a broker and did everything I could to discourage him from wanting to be our broker. But......his intelligence, knowledge of the area as well as his appreciation for the unusual nature of our condo wore me down. He was persistent and not only had great ideas of his own but was very interested in our ideas as well. He did an architectural night cocktail party. He had MANY open houses. He put ads in RI Monthly TWICE. There was nothing he wouldn't consider. Finally we sold the place and he made THAT process as easy as it could possibly be. He has a work ethic that anyone would admire. My wife and I are so grateful for his help and guidance. He's the best of the best and we both consider him now to be a friend.
We have been working with Cathy Wicks for over 10 years. She is dedicated, knowledgeable and knows the local market. she has always had our best interest in mind and works very hard to make our dreams come true. We will definitely be reusing her in the future.
Tammy Bass did an exeptional job of understanding our priorities to help us find the perfect vacation home! Her experience, communication skills, and attention to detail helped us immensely, given we were located out-of-state. Tammy's time and effort made this process a wonderful success . We highly recommend Tammy and would use her again.
Jeff was great, and I'm incredibly happy with my house. While I was thinking about buying a house I had heard stories about realtors that had gone above and beyond to find houses for their clients, and I had heard horror stories about realtors that made the house hunt a nightmare. Jeff represented all of the good traits of a realtor and none of the bad. I'm confident I wouldn't have my house right now if my relator was anyone but Jeff.
A good real estate agent wears many hats: accountant, therapist, home expert, personal advisor, neighborhood pal, style guru. Gordon King was all of these things and many more. Even staring down the big waves of a large home purchase, he was keeping a steady hand on the wheel while navigating at full throttle. He brings wonderful baked goods, is a snappy dresser, knows everyone, bon vivant, and optimist. In the two and half months of a nail biting transaction he brought to the process building inspectors, recommended architects, found us a construction contractor, and advised on tennis courts, dock builders, lawn mowers, trash guys, neighbors and restaurants. If Gordon had not been our agent I can’t imagine completing this transaction. And now, as my husband and I look out to the sunset at the west passage from our back porch, I want to thank Gordon King for helping us buy the ultimate home for the two of us and our growing family of grandchildren. --Rebecca Miller, Jamestown
Jeff did an outstanding job of selling our rental property in 6 weeks. Jeff is professional, knowledgeable, works hard and works smart. We were out of town during the time the property was listed to the time the property was sold. Jeff handed all aspects of the sale including lining up contractors to complete work prior to the sale and fix issues uncovered during the inspection. We are so grateful to have Jeff as our real estate agent. We highly recommend Jeff to any potential seller or buyer
I can't say enough about the level of support that Schuyler Horton provided to us over the nearly 6 months that we navigated the sale of our properties as well as an international move. From initial consultation through preparation and staging; to managing the cleanout, final house fixes, and utility transfers; to final closing and celebration, Schuyler was with us every step of the way with consummate professionalism and cheerful, encouraging texts and reminders. He listened attentively and thoroughly to both our needs and wishes during the sale (which didn't always necessarily square with standard practice) and made sure that they were met. I cannot imagine going through this challenging time with anyone else and recommend him absolutely without reservation to anyone seeking a top-notch real estate agent.
Using any other broker would be a waste of time. Cathy is the best! She will have my business as long as she is in the business!
We are a military family, bringing many unique details to the house purchasing experience. Having bought four houses in four different states, while selling one, we have used six different real estate agents along the way. Holly is by far the best we have ever had the pleasure to work with. Holly found our house the first day it went on the market and recommended it to us immediately. We were actually focused on finding a house in Newport, but Holly knew our personal desires and family situation so well that she drew us out to Portsmouth to consider this house. It was spot on with what we were looking for, so the distance from Newport was negated by her excellent judgment in the right house and location for our family. The sales process was extremely dynamic and challenging, and the most difficult we have experienced in nine years in real estate. Holly managed every detail with a full commitment to our situation. We even had a family emergency during one of our showings, requiring us to go to the Emergency Room. Holly dealt with the situation at the showing, but also took things to the next level in caring for us. Since we were new to the area and had not established a support network yet, she also went to the extreme of picking our dog up at the hospital, walking it, and taking it to our rental house while we were attending to our sick child. We can't say enough about how much she helped our family both in and out of her professional field, and we practically consider her a member of our family and if not a close friend. We can make no greater endorsement for a realtor and wish we could take her with us for every future real estate purchase/sale we make. Thank you Holly, you made a difference in our lives that we will never forget!
This is the third P&S we have experienced with Tom Rao. Each one was handled with precision and an excellent Broker to Client experience. Tom is very knowledgeable in partnering the right home and town with it’s new owner. He listened to what we were looking for regarding the area of Rhode Island we wanted to live in and the type of house we were trying to find. His warm demeanor and excellent networking abilities provided us with the utmost care and respect that promoted our house sale to close without any glitches. Very admirable in today’s market. Thanks Tom! Jim and Susan, Lincoln, RI
When my son told me that he wanted to buy his 1st house, I know from my previous experience with Tammy that she would be the perfect agent. From my 1st call to Tammy, she was responsive and knowledgeable about the market, as well as patiently guided my son and I through the whole process- A real pro that make's sure you go through the experience with your eyes wide open and no surprises! Really appreciate the professionalism and person touch that Tammy brought to the purchase and would recommend her without reservation!
Hillary was truly exceptional. We have gone thru this process before several times and were, quite frankly, dreading it. Our experience with her was by far the most smoothest, most pleasant we have ever had. Extremely pleasant and always available, Hillary kept us up to date on everything from inspections, to mortgage questions to helping us negotiate. Not only that, she noticed items that had been agreed to that had not yet been resolved or were unacceptable the day before the closing and pushed to have them corrected. There were other things as well that were truly above and beyond what we as buyers might have expected. Very professional, attentive to detail and a strong advocate for her clients as well.
From the very start Marlene was quick to respond to any and all questions. She is very knowledgeable and easy to work with. We will definitely use her again and recommend.
Gordon King was exceptional, and he really was instrumental in the purchase of my new home. HIs guidance was spot-on and he was very thorough in explaining the entre cycle of the home search, contract negotiation, inspection and closing.
Jeff did an outstanding job of selling our rental property in 6 weeks. Jeff is professional, knowledgable, works hard and works smart. We were out of town during the time the property was listed to the time the property sold. Jeff handled all aspects of the sale including lining up contractors to complete work prior to the sale and fix issues uncovered during the inspection. We are so grateful to have Jeff as our real estate agent. We highly recommend Jeff to any potential seller or buyer.
We worked previously with Tammy in the purchase of our condo. It was a full state search in a hot sellers market. She was key in helping us narrow our choices and never showed frustration with all of the changes that we made along the way. When it came time to sell the condo, we wouldn't think of having any other realtor help us. She's the definition of PRO with the outstanding personality to match! When the time is right to buy again, we'll definitely contact Tammy!
Lynn was the absolute best. She waa always accessible, extremely professional and ALWAYS there for us. She wasn't just extremely helpful but she was very trustworthy and knowledgeable as well. I would recommend her to anyone looking to purchase a house. Lynn was not just there to help us find our second home, she was willing to go above and beyond and she did just that. She started off as our realtor but became and friend. I recommend Lynn 100 times over.
Hillary was a pleasure to work with to sell our old home and purchase our new one. She is always professional while also being a pleasure to talk to. She is very willing to answer questions and is very helpful when needed.
Tammy Bass came highly recommended and lived up to her stellar reputation. There is no doubt that Tammy is a true subject matter expert in all aspects of the home-buying process. However, her ability to work with people makes her truly stand out as exceptional. Tammy took the time to understand our priorities and worked hard to guide us through the process with our specific goals leading her efforts. Tammy's interpersonal skills allowed her to build trust with our family. As first-time home buyers, Tammy's patience and thoughtful advice was deeply appreciated. Simply put, we trusted her implicitly through this process and she did not disappoint. Tammy's reputation as the best in the area is deserved. She's hard working, authentic, and just darn good at her job.
Cathy was there through it all (I mean really through it all, I can't think of a crisis and family even we didn't go through while selling this home!) - we reached out to her well before we put the house on the market and we're so glad we did! I was selling my dad's home all the way from Maine and we made it work. She was always available, so professional, and so supportive. She had our back the whole time. We don't live in the area but we'll be recommending Cathy to everyone on Aquidneck Island!
I have moved over 15 times in my Navy career and have bought and sold 7 houses in that timeframe. Tammy had made this move the best by far, she was attentive and dedicated to helping us. She truly made us so comfortable with the entire process, and truly had our best interest at heart. She is an amazing realtor and even better person. I strongly recommend that anyone buying or selling a house should hire Tammy Bass as their realtor. We will utilize her services again!!!
It was a pleasure dealing with Jeff Brooks for the sale of our Newport property. He was there from the start to the end of the process. ALWAYS available for advice. I highly recommend Jeff as a real estate agent.
Ryan H. recommended Lynn & others. I went w/Lynn. She hung in w/ me during the last minute disappointing cancellation of the first buyer & all thru the year of Covid. She gave me hope & encouragement. Time shares are not an easy sell!!
I have worked with Matt Hadfield in the past and he has always done a phenomenal job Matt Hadfield did an excellent job with the whole process. There is so much that goes into a real estate purchase bur Matt handled everything very timely and thorough. I could not imagine using anybody else Michele did an excellent job showing our house and staying in close communication. We enjoyed getting to know Michele through the process I had a unique situation to sell my house and buy a new property in a short period of time. Hogan and Associates was able to make it happen. I cannot say enough good things about the staff at Hogan and Stone
Jeff Brooks maintained regular and professional contact during our early stages of home shopping Jeff kept us informed and educated thru all steps of the process. Jeff had Emily help us view a few homes while he was out of the country and she was super friendly and helpful as well. Jeff was great to work with; I have a long work schedule and he was easy to communicate with after hours which was super helpful for me as a working mom. We are super happy to be in our new home. Thank you Jeff!!!
So Happy the job that Caroline Richards did & excellent open house every weekend. Caroline is one of the best brokers i have ever seen. Good/Great communication with Myself/seller & the Buyer. There is not one time that you cant reach Caroline Richards,,Always available 24/7& that is very Important.
Matt delivered for me on all fronts. Found me a buyer and got my price. Matt knows the market and his team made the process smooth.
We made a great choice. I think Jeff is a great asset to you. He made a difficult decision to sell our house much less stressful.
I was incredibly lucky to have Schuyler Horton represent me as a landlord listing my unit for the first time, and could not reccommend him enough. Schuyler was fast, efficient, communicative and truly went above and beyond to ensure everyone was well-informed, in agreement, and prepared to move forward. I would get calls from Schuyler regularly with updates, feedback, resources and advice with trying to find an annual tenant during the slow season. We ended up securing a yearly lease at full asking price with a great tenant. He even went as far as rolling his sleeves up and making minor repairs, and staging the unit with his own items so it would look it's best for showings. Schuyler Horton is someone who truly cares about his clients, and will go above and beyond to make sure you are in the best situation in your real estate journey. I can guarantee you will be in great hands working with Schuyler.
If you are looking for a Real Estate agent on Aquidneck Island and the surrounding areas, PLEASE, do yourself a favor and look no further than Tammy Bass! I can not speak highly enough about her and her team. We sold our home with Tammy in 24 hours for over asking- mostly thanks to her knowledge and expertise. It was such a smooth transaction and process. Then came the purchase of our dream home which also wouldn't have been possible without Tammy! She was the wonderful matchmaker between seller and us. The market was very tough for buyers at this time, and we owe this entire sale to her! We literally couldn't be more grateful to her or for her! Additionally throughout everything, Tammy was soooo patient with us and always understanding. When she didn't have an answer, she got it for us within 24 hours or less. I always felt like we were her ONLY clients. She was always there for us in whatever capacity we needed, it was amazing! I wish I was still in the market for real estate just to be working with Tammy everyday again.
We have done several real estate transactions with Meredith and each one has been absolutely perfect Everything was smooth and on schedule. Meredith's knowledge of the local market and her skill at interfacing with people make her an ideal realtor, and one we look forward to working with in the future.
Elizabeth an amazing resource. She is an incredible person and is easy to work with. Elizabeth is connected to the community, she is honest, hardworking and an all around knowledgeable realtor. She tuned in to what our family was looking for to make sure we had the perfect fit. When we found our property, she left no stone unturned and made sure we were are informed and comfortable with our decision before making an offer. We would strongly recommend Elizabeth and Hogan.
Diane Harrison was knowledgeable re the market in Jamestown, extremely helpful in navigating the details of the purchase, smart, funny and supportive. Highest compliments.
Emily Chappell did a great job with the buying of our home especially since were were 1st time home buyers. She was great to get in touch with and helped answer all of our questions. She was eager to share her knowledge and recommended many local businesses to help us with this process. I would highly recommend Emily whether you are buying, selling, or renting!
Elizabeth Enochs is the best real estate professional I've ever worked with. FAC
Tom Rao knows the Newport market well and is an asset as a buyers agent.
Within a few hours Lynn Creighton had many showings scheduled for the following day and within 24 hours a signed purchase and sales agreement was signed. Lynn was in contact with the buyers agent many times to negotiate and provide any information needed to assure the sale was progressing. Lynn Creighton has been a realtor in the area for many years and has the knowledge of the real estate market in the local area and takes the feelings and needs of the client into consideration. I would recommend Lynn Creighton to anyone who is considering locating to the local area.
Lynn was very knowledgeable about sales in our community and very professional. She was very responsive to all of our questions and her follow-thru was excellent!! She did an outstanding job with the sale of our home. Lynn knew exactly what she was doing and was in control every step of the way. She told us exactly what to expect and the transaction unfolded exactly as she said it would. Lynn was a delight to work with every step of the way. Would recommend her highly for any type of real estate transaction.
This is the second time Matt has represented us and we continue to be very happy with the result!
The whole process was quick and painless. Thanks, Tom!
LESLEY acted as dual agent and we were the buyers. We never felt that she was doing other than offering both us and the sellers a fair and ethical service. LESLEY has a remarkable ability to analyse tricky situations and come up with a solution. She has a real "can do" approach. Her local knowledge and contacts are extensive. This combined with loads of experience and a lovely disposition means LESLEY is certainly the 'go to realtor' for me. Cynthia Maynerd
Gordon went above and beyond to help me understand the local market. He was extremely responsive, answering questions late at night, early in the morning and anytime in between. I would highly recommend anyone I come across to use Gordon as their agent when purchasing or selling. I am very happy that I had the opportunity to meet and work with him.
Came highly recommended from friend. Knowledeable about the deal process. Good follow up. All around good guy. Smooth transaction in getting the sale completed.
We have known Meredith for several years through Facebook. Her personality and how she presents herself was a huge factor in choosing her to be our real estate agent. Meredith, kept us informed every step of the way from listing, purchase and sales agreement to closing. Meredith handled our listing very professional! Meredith is very trustworthy, and she had patience with us!
Jeff is outstanding.
Tom always responded and made appointments to view houses quickly. Always honest with us. We feel as though he always had our best interest in mind. He made the process very easy for a first time home buyer.
Lynn Creighton worked diligently on our behalf. She makes you feel like you are her only client - very special. Her knowledge, professionalism, experience and warm and friendly personality make for an exceptional agent. Would not hesitate to recommend or use again. Thank you for everything, very much appreciated.
Always professional. Very attentive and quick to respond with any issues that came up. Like working with your Best Friend. Now that my house has sold; I will miss our conversations . ..... You would have a hard time finding a better Realtor to assist you. She knows this market very well. Always fave me good advise.
To whom it may concern, We recently purchased a property in Middletown that was a complex transaction for several factors. We had the good fortune of having Michele Mullowney as our broker. Michele handled the entire process flawlessly from start to finish during the Covid-19 pandemic which was no easy task. Michele has a great local knowledge of that market and is a tireless worker. She was very easy to reach and communicate with. I would recommend Michele to anyone looking for a home in the Newport/Middletown market. Regards, Paul Campbell.
Emily is very knowledgeable and intuitive. As a first-time home buyer, I was very impressed. She knew the answers to questions before I even asked them. Emily was a great advocate and went above and beyond to research various questions concerning the property, as well as local and state rules and regulations. How many people can say that their real estate agent stopped by to help them unpack? Excellent customer service.
We had high expectations and she exceeded them. We felt as though she was always straightforward and willing to entertain any scenario we threw out there. The process was enjoyable and in the end we were able to purchase the home we truly wanted. Together we all made it happen and we are so fortunate she was part of our team. Thank you Caroline for bringing the vision to reality.
Tammy was the absolute best! She was there when I needed her and helped me sell my house after being on the market for only one day! I would definitely recommend using her to buy or sell your home as she also helped us purchase our new home all without a single problem.
"Kate Wilson and Hillary Olinger have done a wonderful job at our Gibbs project and we would undoubtedly work with them in the future. They discovered this project for us and presented it to our team as a unique opportunity for a condo conversion in the heart of Newport. Throughout the purchase phase, they were supportive with reliable and accurate market data to assist our team in making the right decision on the design and implementation of the project. The team from Hogan Christie's listened to our wants and needs and did a great job in helping us create unique marketing collateral for the project and also provide feedback on what should and should not be put into the design, aesthetic and amenities in the building.As we moved through the sales process they kept a close eye on the ever changing market and assisted to get the maximum dollar for each of the units being sold. At times they gave us the tough love and honest feedback that we needed to make changes on the fly, modify and make additions to the project to assist in sales. They worked hard at not only the normal, expected realty tasks but also thought outside of the box to get people to the open houses and get buyers to the closing table. We appreciate their hard work and continued effort."
Holly was fantastic to work with and was always very responsive. She really knows Newport.
After deliberating about it forever, we finally made the decision to leave our home of 40 years and look for a new place better suited for our retirement. In what turned out to be the best decision we could have made, we asked Schuyler Horton of Hogan Associates for his help and guidance. His market knowledge, communication skills, negotiating savvy and overall professionalism helped us through the twists and turns of not only finding exactly what we were looking for in a new home, he expertly crafted our winning bid in a very competitive low-inventory market. And, he recommended expert financial professionals who suited our needs perfectly. Schuyler was our partner on this months long journey every step of the way. He is truly the best! It is the understatement of the century to say that we could not have made this complex move without Schuyler’s help. We will be forever grateful for his guidance and highly recommend him to anyone looking for expertise in today’s real estate market.
Holly stood out from previous Realtors because she made us feel at ease. She found many houses that fit our needs and never made us feel like she was doing a job, but that she enjoyed working with us.
Jeff Brooks was an exceptional partner in selling our house in Newport. From the outset, he provided a comprehensive market analysis, setting realistic expectations. Jeff executed the sale flawlessly, achieving a price right in the middle of his projected range. Throughout the process, he managed numerous stressful details, including coordinating with local vendors when necessary. I wholeheartedly recommend Jeff to anyone considering selling their home.
Cathy Wicks provided excellent service throughout our purchase experience. She was always available to us, answered every question we had along the way, and successfully coordinated with all of the agencies involved in our smooth closing. She deftly dealt with the unique nuances of closing not only during a holiday season, but also ensured all requirements were in step when we could not be present at closing. Cathy went the extra mile to ensure a smooth transition from seller to buyer, and we will be certain to recommend and seek her services in the future.
Matt Hadfield knows how to talk to people and make the right things happen. In less than 24 hours of Matt previewing our property, he produced a signed deal. Matt also managed other issues up through closing in a professional and successful manner and not letting anything slip through the cracks.
The Broker and his agents made themselves readily available to our needs; almost immediate responses to our requests.
Tammy Bass is trustworthy, professional, experienced, and friendly! I'm so glad we worked with her in the purchasing of our home.
Best person ever! Always takes care of any situation Everything good
Leslie Hogan and her team did a phenomenal job selling our family home as part of settling our father's estate. She was right on target with estimating the market value, developed a plan to best present that house that included staging (which really helped the house sell for top value) and brought in buyers. Within 3 weeks we had two competing offers very near asking price. In addition, Leslie and her team were an absolute pleasure to work with, very responsive to our questions and to potential buyers, and showed great care representing the sale of the family home. The whole process went smoothly and we could not be happier that we chose to list with Hogan Associates. Thank you Leslie!
Cathy is top notch, the transaction was a breeze with her guidance.
Chris has proven success selling houses in my price range and it showed through his preparation in listing my house. It was also really important to me that he demonstrated a great understanding of the unique challenge of attempting to sell a house during a pandemic while keeping my family safe. Chris did a great job and I would recommend him to anyone looking to sell a house!
I have worked with Kevan multiple times and his professionalism has always been impeccable. I love to hear his knowlege of the island and the stories that he's had here. He will always give his honest opinion and won't steer you in the wrong direction. 10 out of 10 for sure!
We had a fantastic experience with Caroline Richards selling our home. Her knowledge of sales in our area was important to us. She was respectful of our needs: timeline for selling the home and scheduling showings. We were pleased at how quickly our home sold for the price we thought was appropriate. The entire process felt easy as she prepared us for each step in the closing process. We highly recommend Caroline.
Liz goes above and beyond to help her clients. She knows more about every single house on the market in this town than anyone I know. .....she lives and breathes real estate, it is her true passion and it shows at every step of the way during our transaction. She honestly must work 100 hours a week because she was constantly helping me with some many aspects of research on this purchase as it relates to comps, building codes, and everything under the sun. Down to the smallest detail of the absolute most thoughtful closing gift .....and I have worked with some realtors who have done nothing at closing. Liz is a gem and one of the best realtors I have ever worked with ....and I have bought and sold quite a few properties on this island. Hogan is lucky to have her!!!
Colleen is extremely professional and knowledgeable. She follow through on every detail of the purchase to make things go smoothly and stay on schedule for a quick closing.
Chris is incredibly responsive and very supportive during the home buying process. Anything that stressed me out, i could call him and we would figure out together, and easily with his knowledge and experience.
Another one sold, we have used Diane for all our real estate needs in Newport and have always had a great experience.
Matt Hadfield was referred to us through friends who are very familiar with the local market, having bought and sold a number of residential and commercial properties. After working with Matt and his associate Michelle Mullowney, it was easy to see why he was enthusiastically recommended. He guided us through the buying process with what seemed like relative ease. However, behind the scenes, Matt worked diligently to help us zero in on our home and to ultimately close the deal. He always asked for feedback and listened to it to effectively guide us through an array of choices. Whether or not we liked a house he showed us, each appointment got us closer to the home we ended up buying. We're looking forward to enjoying our new home and are delighted that Matt could make it happen.
Ms Holly Mclear is very helpful for real estate investment, and looking forward work with her again.
Engaged and highly professional throughout the entire process! Matt is knowledgeable, responsive and has deep experience in this area of R.I. Went above expectations with miscellaneous details which is the difference maker.
After an initial call with Jeff Brooks, I got a good feeling that his assessments of homes was similar to mine. This was important to me because I wasn't looking for one type of home, but rather, looking at each property for its specific and unique potential. I thought Jeff's background melded well with my own analytical approach to property assessment. In addition, his knowledge of the area was key in helping me understand how location played into potential property values. Aside from property assessment, Jeff was professional in all aspects of our home purchasing process. He was considerate and informative when talking through our thoughts on potential offers, and counter offers. He was also willing to work with us on trying to get a deal on the properties we were looking at, rather than encouraging us to make offers only close to asking price. At no point in our interactions did we ever felt like Jeff was pressuring us to make a decision, rather he talked through our thoughts to guide us to making our own. We would highly recommend Jeff Brooks in your home purchase!
Janie Aracil went above and beyond helping us buy this house. Not only did she help us make an offer on short notice, but she also sorted out the complicated solar panel issue, helped with multiple negotiations, was readily accessible, and generally provided excellent advice/coaching throughout the process. We couldn't be happier.
Michele was fantastic. She responded to us very quickly and worked with the sellers to get us what we needed. Working with Michele helped make this process as easy as possible for us. Thanks for the help.
I selected Tom for my search of a Newport home given his vast knowledge of the local market and his extensive experience in real estate sales in the district I was looking in, Tom could not have been more professional, respectful and efficient during the sales process, I very much enjoyed working with Tom and Hogan Associates, I would be happy to use them again and to recommend Tom to anyone I know looking for a home on the island.
Outstanding realtor. Would highly recommend. Low key professional and great follow through. A true pleasure to work with.
Holly was amazing from start to finish!! She was there every step of the way to guide us thru the process and get us what we needed to move on. Post closing she was super helpful in cleaning up the loose ends and general follow up. She started out as our broker but we feel that we now have a new friend. If we ever decide to move back she would be our first and only call. I would recommend her and only her to both sell and buy. She made the process much easier!! Thank you Holly!
Gordon is extremely knowledgeable about the marina and boat slip market in Newport. His expertise and personal knowledge of the sellers made our purchase of a boat slip possible.
Diane was excellent in assisting us to purchase our right home. A pleasure to work with, Diane was knowledgeable, diligent, thorough and effective in presenting our offer, as well as, negotiating the final price after inspection. It was a stress free and seamless process. Diane was always available for questions and consistent in her follow through. A true professional! We would certainly refer individuals to Diane and Hogan Associates in the future! Thank you, Donna & Peter
Great guy and job!
Gordon King was an excellent ambassador of Newport. His local knowledge is fantastic, and he shares it willingly. Gordon has been incredibly helpful introducing us to contractirs,lawn care professionals and others. He is truly a full service realtor. We were thrilled to have him represent us.
Matt is a pleasure to work with.
Emily is very knowledgeable and intuitive. As a first-time home buyer, I was very impressed. She knew the answers to questions before I even asked them. Emily was a great advocate and went above and beyond to research various questions concerning the property, as well as local and state rules and regulations. How many people can say that their real estate agent stopped by to help them unpack? Excellent customer service.
Tom Rao made the selling process simple and easy. He was easy to get in touch with and answered the many questions we had along the way. I would not hesitate to recommend him to anyone in need of real estate services!
It's a pleasure to have Caroline Richards as our real estate agent. She never left any questions unanswered and always responded promptly. I would highly recommend her over any broker, as you will receive the best service any agent can provide. She is a great asset when selling or purchasing a home or building. We are blessed to have Caroline Richards as our agent!
Paul kept us informed of every aspect of the sale of our home. He went above and beyond with watching over our sick dog, availability for consultations, consideration of timing of showings... was always considerate and understanding of our needs. He knew our neighborhood and understood it's value.
Leslie is a wonderful person to work with. She is competent and personal at the same time. She provides helpful information right away and is available when needed right away. She give valuable feedback without being pushy. A very positive experience from start to finish, we certainly would work with her again!
Kevan is very honest, professional, and knowledgeable. He provides good insights, offers pros and cons on each property, pays close attention to the buyers requirements, is patient and not pushy and will keep looking to find the right property. He does not try to rush clients into a decision and is a good listener. He follows up very well, does what he says he will do, and can be trusted. He is there to help after the closing also. He is an asset to buyers that are not local given his knowledge of the area and his business associations.
I am from out of town and met Jeff via Zillow. When I submitted an inquiry for the property I eventually purchased, he responded within 2 minutes. We met at the property the following morning. Having bought, renovated and sold many homes over the years, I was immediately impressed with Jeff's knowledge of the business. He answered questions that were in my mind before I could even ask. He was amazing during the negotiation process. The seller eventually accepted after having declined several prior offers. He referred me to local professionals to assist with the closing process and all were spot on. I consider myself extremely fortunate to have been blindly assigned to him via my inquiry. Couldn't have turned out any better!
Tammy was amazing throughout the whole homebuying process. She understood my specific needs when it came to homebuying and was extremely flexible and BEYONG helpful.
It was a totally pleasure to work with Tammy Bass AGAIN!! she is always very professional, trustworthy and knowledge of the area; we will highly recommend her to any family and friends whom would like to get an excepcional service.
I first came to know Tammy through a personal recommendation when my husband and I were buying our first house. We were living in Japan at the time, and Tammy was instrumental in helping us buy — sight unseen. Not only did she hold my hand throughout the entire process, teaching me along each step, but she went to bat for us and fought for us when we needed it. When we moved back overseas and wanted to rent the house out, Tammy was instrumental in helping us set a rent and deposit that was fair, marketing the rental, and finding us tenants. She made recommendations about how to prioritize improvements we wanted to make to the property and what would bring the most value given our situation. She even helped me find an excellent new property manager when I had to fire our original manager. She found every tenant that rented from us, vetted them, took care of the paperwork and collecting the deposits. All I had to do was review the information she presented me and give the thumbs up for her to proceed. Most recently Tammy has helped us sell our house. After almost a decade it was time for us to let this house go, and just like the last 8 years, Tammy stepped up in a big way! She was instrumental in helping us pick a price and even helped us get an offer well above asking. Her knowledge of the local area cannot be beat. She works relentlessly for her clients to get them what they want. Her communication is unmatched! I cannot say enough good things about Tammy Bass. If you are looking for someone to get things done in a timely fashion, fight for you on all fronts, and keep you up to date along the process, you can't find anyone better than Tammy. I wish she could help me with our other real estate dealings in other states!
The performance of Caroline Richards is beyond reproach. I've seen many realtors from small town, USA to the high powered world of corporate offerings in New York and LA and she is without peer. Caroline is who you want and need by your side for the entire journey. Wandering through a house of horrors, she was the light that kept me safe. Blinded by the apparent beacon of perfection, she was the shade that shielded my eyes. She is my American Express. I'd never search for a home without her.
Meredith was marvelous. After she showed us a couple of houses that we thought we might like and asked about what we were looking for in general, she apparently listened very carefully. She said, "I have a place I think you might be interested in. Would you like to take a look at it?" And she was spot on! The place was absolutely what we had dreamt of finding. We are over-the-moon happy with our new home! I can't recommend Meredith LeBlanc enough.
Office has excellent communication skills and follow up. Michelle Extremely helpful with the complete process. Matt was quick with any email or return calls. I had been working for almost a year on another property with Matt, he always would get involved when I requested his assistance, to keep the deal moving, when I needed him.
We would recommend Holly McLear to any buyers or sellers in the greater Newport area. We had very specific things we were looking for in a new home. Holly stayed on the local market and found the perfect house for our family. She then coordinated a very effective inspection and closing process. The whole experience was seamless and we would highly recommend Holly McLear to others!
Our home purchase involved a very lengthy and challenging "new build", and Jeff had our backs every step along the way. He was instrumental in helping us reach a successful outcome, which was absolutely not guaranteed. We would definitely work with Jeff again and recommend Jeff to our friends and families.
Kevan was great in every aspect. He was knowledgeable about the areas we were searching in and was able to provide helpful insight along the way.
Best real estate transaction I could have hoped for You are very fortunate to have Jeff Brooks on your team
Marlene is a professional and knowledgeable realtor. She was accessible, answered all questions and communicated with us throughout the entire transaction.
Meredith was very professional to work with and made this house process easier to work with. I would recommend her to work with anyone I know!
I have had the pleasure of knowing Mike Hill for more than 20 years. I could not imagine using anyone else for my real estate needs. He is an incredibly well-rounded, talented, and knowledgeable broker with a very personable and warm-hearted disposition. In the time I have known him I have always felt comfortable and confident in his decisions. I knew he was going to take the time to understand my requests and that he would provide me with the best service possible. He is a very genuine individual with a supreme work ethic. He truly cares about his clients. It is apparent that he is devoted to his work and has a love for his profession. It is important to mention that he had my property in Newport RI sold in a matter of weeks. He truly is phenomenal and I highly recommend him to you.
There were some challenges none of which were Leslie's fault but she guided me through each one. Her patience and knowledge of the industry is simply outstanding! Can't say enough about my positive experience with her! Leslie knows her trade well and that was so valuable during my entire experience!
we knew, from the moment we met her, that we were going to use caroline richards when the time came for us to buy/sell property in newport! a year after our initial introduction, here we are! she currently has the listing for our property in newport, and also represented us in our recent purchase of the home in middletown. i can say, with confidence, that she is the hardest working, most professional and knowledgeable, SMARTEST and most dedicated broker i have ever worked with. her attention to detail is unrivaled and she commucatea with us regularly with updates or information. love her!
I recommend Matt Hadfield for buying or selling a home. He is very thorough, detailed. It was a very long distance purchase but both Matt and Michelle made it happen with zero issues. Matt is very available and accommodating. He knew what I was looking for and informed me immediately when a property became available .
Holly McLear was positive, knowledgeable, energetic and available when I had questions or concerns. She help us negotiate a great deal and kept us motivated during the difficult process of selling our out of state home so we could purchase our local perfect dream home. Thanks!
Paige Goudey was wonderful to work with in my property search. She is extremely professional, personable and accessible. She kept me updated on new listings and properties that met my criteria. She was a pleasure to work with and I would highly recommend her.
Emily is excellent at what she does! She answered all our questions and helped us with the entire process. Working with Emily was effortless and went very smoothly! I would recommend her to everyone!
We decided to sell the house last October and notified Leslie immediately. She drafted a marketing and information plan that created interest in the house during the winter season when the market is at its lowest point and was ready for a more aggressive rollout in the spring. The photography and description of the house captured its many features and attracted the right potential buyers. We sold the house to the second prospect who had some unusual requests and other significant complications that were satisfied with creativity to end up with a closing in fewer than sixty days from receipt of the first offer. Given the small market for this expensive and complex property the marketing plan was on the mark and the selling price was as well.
Emily Chappell has helped out friends and family with buying homes, and we knew right away based on all the positive feedback, that we'd want her to be a part of our home buying process. Emily did a great job in keeping us up to date with pertinent information throughout the process. She helped us negotiate a price we were comfortable with and was available with any questions we had...and being first time home buyers, we had a lot ! Emily was always friendly, funny, and professional. She explained a lot of things to us based on her knowledge when doing walkthroughs/inspection. We thought buying a house during a pandemic would be tough, but she made it a breeze ! We would HIGHLY RECOMMEND Emily Chappell if you want someone in your corner that cares about what's important to you, and will put the work in to make your dreams a reality. Thank you so much for making our dreams come true Emily ! :)
We recently sold our house and toyed with the idea of “for sale by owner.” Were we glad we changed our minds! After a thorough review of local realtors, we selected Leslie Hogan, one of the co-owners of Hogan Associates. We couldn’t have made a better choice. Leslie was the ideal person to shepherd us through the arduous home sale process. I can honestly say that the house sale process proved to be one of our most challenging undertakings to date. Leslie was the ideal partner every step of the way. Her vast experience, calm demeanor, intricate knowledge, and ethical behavior provided what we needed to keep things in perspective during all phases of this demanding activity. Leslie worked with us throughout the process. At every decision point, options were discussed before a decision was finalized. Her breadth of experience, accompanied by her calm, relaxed manner, were especially crucial and comforting at these junctures. She was never pushy, and decisions were always mutually acceptable and a collaborative effort. Shortly before closing, we encountered a potentially problematic situation. After discussing several options, the situation was resolved after we agreed on a mutually acceptable, ethical solution that Leslie presented to the buyer in her calm, elegant manner. Leslie’s skill at handling difficult situations was evident throughout the sales process and it was always accompanied by her unflappable, pleasant demeanor. We could not have wished for a better, more likeable person to be by our side during this process. We are certain that anyone who hires her to guide them through the house sale process will have a positive experience with a truly delightful, ethical realtor.
Hillary was the best realtor I've ever worked with hands down! I'm thrilled with my new home and wouldn't have found it and been able to navigate the buying process without her.
I knew Janie Aracil years ago when I was living on Martha's Vineyard. I moved to Middletown, Rhode Island to live with my daughter after a fall resulting in a fractured hip. A few months ago I decided to look for a home of my own, I called Janie, since I knew she had moved to Rhode Island years ago, and was familiar with the area of which I was planning to start my search. I am a retired Licensed Real Estate Broker from Massachusetts and I know how important it is to retain a good Agent when looking for property. For that reason I contacted Janie. I gave her a list of all my priorities, and there were many; style of house, neighborhood, condition, noting that I'm a senior citizen with limited physical capabilities. She was very diligent in her choices of properties for me to see, saving me time and the inconvenience of looking at homes that had 'possibilities'. to fit my needs or requiring some changes or repairs, thereby incurring additional expense. She was aware that I wanted to be close to my family in Middletown yet, in an area I would enjoy becoming a part of that community. When Janie showed me the property at 54 Ford Farm Rd. she was able to make me realize the arrangement of the interior would be ideal for me in my circumstances. The negotiating process was 'painless' since the property value was obvious. She handled the few adjustments to the house by the seller that had to be corrected (from the home inspection report) quickly and efficiently so that it would not hinder our closing date. The closing of the property was one of the smoothest I have experienced in all my years as a Real Estate Broker. Janie answered all my questions, small details about the property I may have overlooked, information about the community and advised me as to what service people were dependable. On moving day, with 10 family and friends assisting me she supplied lunch with several pizzas and cold drinks which were so appreciated by the hungry crew. I'd say that was above and beyond!! They send their thanks! I feel Hogan Associates is so fortunate to have Janie Aracil on their staff,. She is totally committed to her clients. I would recommend Janie to anyone I know who is looking for that special home here in Rhode Island. Thank You, Janie.
Tammy Bass is excellent real estate agent. She navigated us through really tough new house purchase with closing date delayed three times. Tammy connected us with a great team for closing that included real estate layer and bank contacts to finance our purchase. She also went above and beyond, reffering us to a contractor to help finish some odds and ends before our move-in and even having ducts cleaned post construction. Tammy also helped us to find a real estate agent to sell our current house! We are grateful for her help and caring attitude toward this complext transaction, especially since we were coming from out of state. Tammy listens and understands our needs. Thank you very much Tammy for your effort. If someone needs to buy or sell house, Tammy Bass is definitely the best to do this job!
Jeff Brooks made buying a home easy. He did not pressure us, in fact he was very cautious and was always concerned with protecting us financially. As we are new to the area, he also provided many local contacts for us. He was extremely responsive to any questions or concerns we had. On top of it all, Jeff is a really nice person and it was a pleasure to do business with him!
Our relationship with Cathy Wicks extends over many years! She is a professional, extremely hard working realtor. She has sold all of are homes! Not only is she our realtor, she has become a friend. We love everything about Cathy, especially her great sense of humor!
Cathy met us at 110 Second St back in November of 2019 when we first started looking for a full time home in Newport. We went back multiple times to revisit weather or not we wanted to make the move. Cathy made herself available every time we asked for her to meet us there and let us in and answer questions. Finally in April/May time frame in 2020 we decided to put in an offer and it was accepted after a little back and forth. After that everything went smoothly and her communication was always timely and professional. It made for a very stress process and is greatly appreciated. Thank You, Kevin
Jeff Brooks is amazing!! We were buying in the greater Newport area and Jeff helped us find a delightful home. Jeff has enthusiasm, knowledge, and excellent patience with us. Jeff is responsive and totally represents you! He negotiated and checked off everything for us. we would totally use Jeff in the future.
Tom Rao has always been very attentive to my housing needs and very knowledgeable with regard to the housing market. He has always made me feel comfortable and has gone out of his way to assist me with my housing needs. I have known Mr Rao for many years and he continues to excel in his profession. I have recommended Mr Rao to many of my friends and neighbors. I will continue to utilize Mr. Rao's expertise in all my future real estate needs.
Matt, was a great help in making the deal happen. He helped move the process along where he had the ability to do so. If you're looking for a friendly knowledgeable resource to help you in the area use Matt Hadfield! Thanks Matt!
I hired Leslie Hogan for her knowledge of the area and the demographics of our target market. Although the sale took much longer than we hoped, Leslie kept to the plan and helped me achieve the best possible price. Her patience never waned and she was always there to provide support and guidance. Better yet, Leslie was a true partner in helping to define and adjust our strategy to get my house sold. I couldn't envision working with someone else that could offer the same level of expertise, confidence and patience.
We had a great experience working with Tammy Bass with the purchase of our new home. She did a great job helping us buy a house across the country all while dealing with the various issues caused by COVID. Great realtor! Highly recommended!
I can't say enough nice things about Gordon. I normally avoid using friends as agents. We have moved more tha 20 times and this was by far the best transaction we have had because of Gordon. He is calm, thoroughly organized, knowledgeable and always available. He made sure that we were always confident and informed and when he said "not to worry I will take care of that", he did. It was seamless! I would definitely use him again and recommend him to my friends
Jeff broke every agent stereotype. He was patient with us from the beginning, actively wanted to help us find our home and was communicative about what the market was and how we could end up with the right house for us.
Hi, I would like to say what a wonderful experience we had dealing with Jeff Brooks. He took us through a very difficult process of buying a house while we lived in another state. He always made time for us during the weekends that we were able to visit and search for houses. Jeff did a wonderful job navigating a nonconventional sale through a bank owned property. He also has put me in touch with local repairmen and contractors that he, himself uses. I would recommend him highly!! Mike Gaughan
We have used Tammy previously and would highly recommend her to anyone due to her knowledge of the area, the ease of the process that she provides and her negotiating skills. She listened to our needs and wants and was readily available to answer any questions or concerns.
Cathy was all around great. She's an agent we've worked with before and she's someone we'd recommend in the future.
Gordon knows and understands "coastal" properties, his clientele and the changing real estate market. He is thoughtful, courteous and an all around nice man. We first met Gordon when we thought we may be interested in moving (a year or two ago) and his knowledge, follow-through and accessibility were very impressive. We have dealt with a number of realtors over the years and knew immediately (following our first interaction with him) that Gordon was a man who took his job and his clients needs (and wants) seriously so Gordon was an easy decision when we did finally decide to buy a new home. Five stars and highly recommended.
Leslie Hogan is the consummate professional and precisely what a seller would want in a real estate agent. She thinks ahead, she is savvy and knows the market, and she conducts herself with poise and class, which connotes the same about the property that she is representing. Most importantly, she delivers results!
Tammy Bass was wonderful to work with. She understood the needs of our family and was flexible with timing and preferences. We started working together with a broad look at locations and budgets. She didn't waiver in support or recommendations among all this change. She also maintained a great attitude with each offer declined and maintained hope that our family would find the right place. Overall we loved working with Tammy and would recommend her to anyone looking to purchase a property in the future!
Lynn sold our condo in one day! She was very knowledgeable about our condo and the association's rules and regulations, and she could handle questions from potential buyers with ease. She respected the fact that we didn't want an open house and set up times for potential buyers to come view the condo accordingly to our schedules. She was readily available whenever we had a question and went out of her way to make us feel confident about the sale. I would highly recommend Lynn and Hogan Associates to anyone looking to sell!
This is the second home that Leslie Hogan has sold for us. Selling your home can be a very stressful experience! Leslie's market knowledge, demeanor, professionalism and sales acumen made both experiences very positive. We would strongly recommend her to anyone, especially on Aquidneck Island and in the East Bay
Please refer to testimonial above .
Janie has been our agent for years now and is always so helpful in all of our transactions. We truly value her local knowledge.
She's absolutely wonderful to work with and I'm glad a relative recommended her to me! On the buying end, she was careful to meet my needs and some major wants and keep it neatly in my price range. Case in point: the property I bought in Barrington three-ish years ago was exactly what I was looking for at the right price, in a lovely and quiet neighborhood with access to a river for a kayak and no HOAs to beg permission to put in a flower box around my own mailbox. The most important part was that she was the real-estate guru who had the patience to lead me through the process of buying as a first-time home buyer. On the selling end of the process, she is a dogged advocate and works very hard to make the best deal for all parties involved. I was floored at how easy she made the process feel when I had to work a night shift and had to handle much of the process after regular business hours. That kind of flexibility is no small thing! Just as she was the patient guru to lead me patiently through the buying process, she was the same in the selling end as well. She has been absolutely AMAZING!! 10/10, would call again to buy another property with her services!
This is our second real estate purchase with Hillary as our agent and we would highly recommend her. Her exceptional market knowledge was evident throughout the decision making process. She has outstanding communication skills and was always available when we needed her epertise. She advocated for us and went way beyond to make sure we were fully informed while easing any concerns we may have had. Hilary is a pleasure to work with and is truly a genuine and authentic person. Highly recommendable
Tammy is the best. She hustles and isn't afraid to communicate the hard truth.
Tammy was awesome to work with and helped us find our dream home! I would highly recommend Tammy to anyone looking for a smooth home-buying experience. She and her team are experience professionals. We feel super lucky to have had her in our corner!
Fellow member of the Newport Elks Lodge & fellow Bryant University alumnus. Tom Rao is a true professionial and it was a pleasure to work with him on my purchase. His real estate experience made my purchase much easier and he provided an excellent level of detail throughout the buying process. I will recommend him and plan to use him for future real estate transactions. Tom Rao was a pleasure to work with in every aspect of my real estate purchase. Tom supported me through a lengthy loan approval process and was always available to lend a guiding hand. Tom Rao has the real estate experience I required to answer all my questions and more importantly give me his opinion from start to finish.
Cathy is the best agent with which I have ever worked. She went above and beyond the call of duty to sell my home.
Smart and effective negotiation skills. Friendly during all interactions and knowledgeable of the local market.
What a great experience this was Leslie and Meredith outdid themselves in preparing and showing, and keeping me informed. I've never had a better experience with realtors than this.
Matt Hadfield and his team were true professionals in handling the purchase of our new home all while listing our current property for lease. Great communication throughout both successful transactions!
My first time purchasing a home went extremely well and flawless and I owe this smooth transaction to Emily. She provided me excellent guidance and input and always responded to my inquiries very quickly.
Knowledgeable and Professional. Her many years of experience made her the perfect dealmaker for the sale of our property
Marlene was extremely attentive and her communication skills were outstanding. Her years of experience shown throughout the entire process. It was a very unique property which came with many selling challenges, all of which she handled with grace and professionalism. Marlene is an agent who goes over and above what is necessary to get the job done, and I am truly grateful for that. I cannot recommend her enough.
Overall excellent experience! Very knowledgeable, was able to move the house quickly, approachable and very patient
Cathy was always available to answer questions. She is very knowledgeable and is very trustworthy. Cathy does her best to help relief stress when selling a home. She is a A+ broker. She answers all questions and is timely, which we appreciated. We met Emily Chappell multiple times. She helped Cathy with the open houses. Emily was very knowledgeable. They got the job done. My house sold.
As a first time seller Leslie and Meridith were more than helpful. Made the process seemless and calming.
This was our 5th real estate transaction with Meredith, and like all the others, this one was smooth, professional, and stress-free. She hung in there with us for several months and helped us find the perfect house in the perfect neighborhood. She was always sensitive to our needs and worked tirelessly to close the deal. We're so grateful for all she does!
Kevan Campbell was helpful in pricing, listing and marketing my property. With proper pricing the property sold quickly and he helped to make the process of selling smooth and free of surprises.
Cathy exceeded expectations. Sold the property within 2 days for the price I needed to get. Great to work with and extremely patient.
We would definitely recommend Cathy Wicks to anyone buying or selling on Aquidneck Island and beyond. She sold our home within a week and also obtained a number of full price backup offers. Her professional experience with real estate , personality and follow through were excellent . Cathy's judgement and honesty are refreshing in a competitive market. She is a terrific real estate agent with a knack for matching people and property. We are so glad we chose her.
Elizabeth is without a doubt one of the best agents I have ever worked with. Her attention to detail is exceptional and has an unwavering perseverance. Our time together was unique as we worked on a new construction project. Throughout all of the turbulations of the job, Elizabeth continued to excell. No challenge is too big for her to overcome. She will faithfully stand behind the property and elevate it to a status of high class. I am forever thankfull to have Elizabeth represent our property and I would highly recommend her for future projects.
I would highly recommend Tom Rao. He listened to my list of requirements for my purchase and was attentive in getting me to the price point I wanted to pay. Instead of paying attention to only his needs, he was concerned for mine. It was great appreciated and I would feel comfortable in working with him again. Thanks Tom!
Over 18 years owning and leasing 3 investment properties in Newport, I’ve worked with 40+ local brokers. Barbara O’Reilly is heads above the rest in experience, understanding the market, listening to client needs, communication, performance and integrity. She’s a pleasure to deal with and I wouldn’t use anyone else.
Gordon King is a world class experience. Full stop. He won't rest until you are fully satisfied and have everything you're looking for, and then he'll go above and beyond to make sure that it's done right and you have what you need moving forward. Gordon's attention to detail and thoroughness made our purchase and closing a breeze, and he continues to work with us to ensure our family is comfortable and well settled as we start to call our new property home. If you're looking to undertake a high quality real estate purchase in the area, you would be at a disadvantage if you didn't use Gordon. We could not recommend him more highly.
We have used Holly before in previous transactions, and recommended her to friends. She is extremely knowledgeable and gets the job done!!! We were in constant communication about the market, her showings of our house and we never felt that she wasn’t in contact with us. We will continue to use Holly in the future
Kate is AMAZING! She worked tirelessly for us and was always available!! She was quick to get us answers, was always prepared and went the extra mile on everything. One of our purchases was complicated and she made sure everything was communicated to the selling agent in a timely matter. Nothing fell through the cracks! She is a rock star and we would highly recommend her to anyone!!!
Jeff Brooks addressed all our questions quickly and thoroughly! We looked at many houses in Newport County and Jeff pointed out things with each house that we would have missed. I found Jeff Brooks to be professional, respectful and kind. I would highly recommend Jeff as a realtor due to his expert knowledge of the local real estate market, key business sense and extensive real estate experience.
In addition to A plus ratings for experience, knowledge and performance, Gordon unhesitatingly offered his services in order to lessen mine, and for which I am grateful. Responded quickly and offered very sound advice. Very satisfied with his services. Thanks Gordon
The property at 54 Third Street is a gem. Comfortable and beautiful in every way. Paige is always just a text away. She always responds within a short time and is very helpful. I would recommend this property and Paige to anyone looking for real estate rentals. Paige is the best.
"Kate Wilson and Hillary Olinger have done a wonderful job at our Gibbs project and we would undoubtedly work with them in the future. They discovered this project for us and presented it to our team as a unique opportunity for a condo conversion in the heart of Newport. Throughout the purchase phase, they were supportive with reliable and accurate market data to assist our team in making the right decision on the design and implementation of the project. The team from Hogan Christie's listened to our wants and needs and did a great job in helping us create unique marketing collateral for the project and also provide feedback on what should and should not be put into the design, aesthetic and amenities in the building.As we moved through the sales process they kept a close eye on the ever changing market and assisted to get the maximum dollar for each of the units being sold. At times they gave us the tough love and honest feedback that we needed to make changes on the fly, modify and make additions to the project to assist in sales. They worked hard at not only the normal, expected realty tasks but also thought outside of the box to get people to the open houses and get buyers to the closing table. We appreciate their hard work and continued effort."
Thank you for making this process a positive experience.
Cathy did great job for us both selling our existing home and finding a new one. We will highly recommend her to our friends.
I was very fortunate to having been introduced to Gordon King. He is both extremely professional and knowledgeable. He was a pleasure to work with. He would make an excellent role model for other brokers / sales associates.
If you are learning about Newport for the first time, it is best to become involved with a full time realtor that grew up and has lived in Newport his/her entire life. Gordon is one such individual. He is also actively involved in the community and we are looking forward to having him as a personal friend. We also hope to become active positive members of the Newport community as well.
This is my third transaction with Marty and would recommend her to anyone in the real estate market. Marty went above and beyond to sell my condo overcoming any speedpumps along the way.
Gordon is an excellent agent. He is the definition of "full service". He is a mature and sophisticated agent who really understands who his end customer is, and tailors his approach and style to serving the needs of clients who are buying multi-million dollar properties. He is also very proactive and excellent at anticipating needs, communicating next steps clearly, so that we were knowledgeable and aware of everything that needed to be done every step of the way. We would highly recommend him!
Janie was extremely attentive and helpful throughout the sale of my home I highly recommend her to anyone buying or selling a home, she's terrific!!!
Very pleased with the nuts to bolts approach Tom Rao executed with my purchase. From the start of my search, throughout the process, and on to final closing, Tom was right there for me, keeping me updated and by my side as a cheerleader! If you want a partner, Tom Rao is your guy.
Meredith provides the best in responsiveness, resourcefulness and has the ability to communicate effectively and seamlessly. I have worked with Meredith on other transactions and by far she is the best in the business. From the search to closing Meredith ensures that you are a priority throughout the process.
Tammy bass is a buyer's dream as a real estate agent. Hard working, honest, and a fantastic communicator, Tammy is worthy of my highest recommendation. She is hands down the best real estate agent I've worked with after having purchased several homes in the past 15 years. She will definitely be my first pick when I decide to sell my house!
Kevan Campbell was open and honest and so incredibly helpful, we would not have been able to complete this purchase without his knowledge, experience in the business and knowledge of the local community. He went above and beyond for us at all times, and was on top of items that we would not have known about as first time buyers.
From the first day we meet Cathy it felt like we’ve known her for years. Cathy was always a phone call or text away to answer any questions Setting up viewing or going herself and checking when We couldn’t. I will highly recommend her to anyone and look forward to working with her again in the near future. Cathy When above and beyond She’s part of our family now Great staff from the time I walked into the Valley RD location
Cathy was wonderful, very knowledgeable and helpful when it came to both preparing the house to be sold and to sell it. I would recommend Cathy to my friends or anybody needing a great realtor. Thank you Cathy!
As mentioned previously, Tammy will go above and beyond to make sure your property purchase is what you want. She is who you should work with. No one can compare!
I requested that no sign would be put up. Holly said we could hold off a little while, but it is a very good selling tool. With joy, no sign was necessary. The beginning of the sales was a bit difficult because I was away and hard to get hold of. However, Holly found ways to make it work. Holly gave me a much better "money value" than the others. Holly was correct in what she chose for me. Holly gave direct answers to my MANY questions. She showed great skill in keeping everything organized and up to date. Holly was considerate of the home's connection to me and took the time to make this all work. She is professional, friendly, knowledgeable and so considerate. I have and I will recommend Holly to my friends. The suggestion I was given of asking Holly to be my realtor was such a good choice. The other two persons that were interviewed we not in her league. Keep working your magic Holly! I will miss having to communicate with Holly. She is a very "UP" personality and carries you up with her help and knowledge. She listens to your concerns and responds with her wisdom of how it all will WORK! Great pictures of my house! The touches of moving a few things here and there by either Holly or the photographer was the correct thing to do. The sale was emotional for me, but Holly walked gently on through it all. She showed respect for things that mattered to me. I feel very content with the way this complete sale process went. AND SO HAPPY IT IS DONE!!!!!
I was referred to Caroline from another Hogan broker who was a listing agent on another property. I immediately liked Caroline and felt her knowledge of the area and the market as well as her demeanor were a great fit for us in our search. Caroline was superb to work with through all aspects of our purchase. On the ball, very knowledgeable, focused on details, not pushy but results focused. She understood what we were looking for and didn’t try to just make the sale. Process was very smooth and painless. Caroline helped make it stress-free which is a big deal considering how big a decision buying a home is.
So happy to be in my new home. Couldn't have done it without the support and expertise of Marty!!
I have recently completed the finest real estate experience of my lifetime, due to the knowledge, caring, attention to detail, and consideration of Marty Easley and Elizabeth Enochs. I was treated in a respectful manner and with genuine kindness throughout my search; I never felt as if I represented a "transaction" to either of them. At each step they took the time to listen, and not simply to respond but rather to hear what I had to say. Marty and Elizabeth both took the time to learn who I was and what I needed in a property. They represented me as a friend, and that meant the world to me. I will never be able to adequately express my appreciation for all they have done for me. I am back home now, in Newport, and I have Marty Easley and Elizabeth Enochs to thank for my successful return! Marty and Elizabeth, I love you both!!
My family and I received orders to transfer to Rhode Island and Tammy was recommended by several people. We were in Japan for the entire process and Tammy made it so easy. She communicated with us every step of the way and made sure we were always kept in the loop. To stay she was patient and kind is an understatement. She was amazing!
We saw a listing on Zillow and my wife filled out the form. Less than two minutes after filling out the form, Gordon called us. We were very impressed. Gordon is the epitome of a what a real estate agent should be. We were so pleased with Gordon that we had no problem recommending him to our CPA. Susan and I would not be in our new home had it not been for Gordon and Caroline, his fellow broker. They both worked tirelessly on bringing to market three homes for sale and the purchase of a fourth. It was needless to say a complicated scenario.
Cathy Is very knowledgeable, courteous, polite and very easy to deal with.
Having run a business, I know the level of detail that makes a difference to just getting it done and getting it done right. Michele Mullowney was a step ahead, even providing me with a "to do" list both before and after the sale. It could not have gone smoother. The follow up after the closing was unexpected and helpful.
Kevan knocked it out of the park for me on this sale! I'm very familiar with the process but have never been in the seat as a seller. We had a very odd transaction that he handled like a true professional and over delivered on the sale that I never coudl have imagined. Thank you Kevan!
Michele knew the property and area very well, was always available and had great, detailed feedback. I was a remote buyer and she was key in helping source key vendors (inspectors, lawyers etc). I would not hesitate to use or recommend Michele in the future!
Gordon was a pleasure to work with. He was highly responsive and very knowledgeable, and he kept an even keel throughout the more difficult portions of the transaction. I highly recommend him!
Kevan helped my fiancé and I find our first home that we bought together. He met my family, handled our anxieties and unrealistic expectations perfectly. He's a great realtor and a great guy. Highly recommend to all. Kevan has a team of fantastic mortgage and legal minds to assist in the other parts of buying or selling a home. They are also very well versed in VA and military needs. 10/10.
She is amazingly talented, both strategically as well as with her attention to detail and follow up. Cannot recommend her enough!
Purchasing a home is stressful, both financially and emotionally. Caroline’s knowledge and professionalism helped make the process less stressful. Not only did she help us understand the Newport real estate market but she was instrumental in helping us find the right house for us. Caroline was wonderfully helpful. We are extremely happy with the service she provided us! She is hands down the best agent we have ever purchased a home with! She rates 2 thumbs up and 5 gold stars with us! We are extremely happy that we were able to work with Caroline Richards in the purchase of our house. She helped make our transaction smooth from the beginning to the end. At every step of the purchase process she was there to help and guide us. Thank you, Caroline!!! Caroline Richards is truly a rockstar agent! Please see previous comments- Caroline is great! We love Hogan Associates!
Gordon expertly guided us through our search for our new home, was instrumental in helping us find exactly the right place, and was there every step of the way through the transaction. Thank you Gordon!
Leslie was a great consultant during this process. I look forward to recommending Leslie without hesitation to anyone looking for real estate on Aquidneck Island! Tammy was very professional and responsive. Working with Leslie was a great experience and I hope that I get to do it again!
I had no personal knowledge of brokers in the area. I have seen Hogan Associates signs and listings in the area and I was drawn to the name. Leslie Hogan was was experienced, knowledgeable about the market, attentive to communication and details associated with the purchase of our house. I am sure that every real estate deal is different. In the case of our deal, my wife and I were located in Florida, looking at property in Tiverton. The house came on the market on Friday. I spoke to Leslie (whom I did not know) on Sunday. We looked at the house, virtually, on Monday. On Tuesday, we made an offer, negotiated terms and executed a Purchase and Sales agreement. Our success in purchasing the property is directly related to Leslie's skills and efforts.
Caroline has represented me in two transactions and both times she was a WOW! If you want a professional, personable, kind and thoughtful person to represent your family and you as you either buy or sell a home, call Caroline!
We have worked with Leslie over the past eleven years on multiple real estate sales and purchases. Leslie represented us as sellers of both a large B&B in Newport and most recently our waterfront property. She knows the market and has been spot on in her guidance and recommendations with every transaction. We would not consider working with any other agent and would highly recommend her to anyone looking to buy or sell property.
Matt was very knowledgeable about the neighborhood we were interested in and he provided excellent advice during the negotiating phase of our purchase. I’d be happy to work with Matt again!
I would give Kevan my highest recommendation.
Meredith is the best!!! Not only is she knowledgeable and professional, she is very patient as well. We asked a LOT of questions and she answered each and every one of them within minutes of each text. Thank you!!!
Jeff Brooks is an outstanding realtor who made our first home buying experience in Middletown, Rhode Island truly exceptional. His knowledge of the local market was invaluable, guiding us with insightful information and ensuring we made informed decisions. Jeff's caring and patient approach stood out; he never pressured us and waited patiently until we found the perfect property. Jeff's dedication to understanding our needs and preferences went above and beyond. He took the time to explain every step of the process, making us feel confident and supported. His expertise and genuine concern for our satisfaction truly set him apart. If you're looking for a realtor who combines professionalism with a personal touch, Jeff Brooks is the one to trust.
Our experience finding and purchasing a condo in Newport with Caroline Richards from Hogan Associates was exemplary in every way. From the search itself, to the paperwork needed, to the walk through, to the close, everything was perfect! Thank you Caroline!
Gordon was excellent, very knowledgeable and his help and availability was above and beyond!!
Tammy Bass was very helpful in understanding our wish list and looking at properties that would only be considered by us as potential homes. She was excellent in working with other brokers on setting up appointments quickly. With limited inventory, she was able to keep us from complete frustration by finding potential properties as we looked for a home on Aquidineck Island. Tammy is super easy to work with and always had our interests as her interests.
Over the years we have sold five homes and this sale was the easiest and least stressful. Gordon is a true professional and helped us every step of the way.
Paul is a consummate professional! Aside from his broad knowledge base, Paul is approachable, intuitive, and respectful. He has a very special way with people, makes them feel very comfortable and at ease. He is smart, kind and has a wonderful sense of humor. He was always mindful of the emotional attachment of the property to me and my family and we knew we were in good hands. I will always highly recommend Paul Tobak to anyone looking to sell or buy a piece of property.
Jeff Brooks is very personable and compassionate about his work and knowledge of the area. He listened to what we were looking for and introduced us to areas in Newport and Middletown we never thought we would entertain. We found our dream home in the area of Newport that Jeff introduced us to and cannot thank him enough. He was patient with us and reached out periodically to see how we were doing throughout the entire process. We would highly recommend Jeff to anyone looking for a home in the surrounding area. He has become a close friend in business and we feel he has become an extended part of the family! Thank You Jeff!
Jeff was professional and very focused in selling our house. He went over and above the call through out the process.
He was able to sell my house before we put it on the market.
Tammy was an exceptional agent for us! Over the course of 2 years she showed us countless houses, helped us put in over 5 offers until we found the one where she knew right away that it was the perfect spot for us! There is no one we have worked with before that will go to the ends of the earth like Tammy did for my family! We enjoyed every aspect of working with her. Her kindness and attitude was incredible and we cannot wait to work with her again!
Leslie Hogan was terrific. Every home sale involves highs and lows, and she was our steady calm and trusted advocate throughout. Super professional, knowledgeable and forthright, Leslie was always available to work through our every concern, making the entire process as stress free as possible. We’ve worked with several realtors in the past and have never experienced one as interested in learning about, and prioritizing our goals as sellers. We highly recommend Leslie and Hogan Associates.
This was a complicated sale for several reasons. Leslie skill in handling so many difficult people and problems could not have been better. The patience of a saint. Follow-up. Details. People management-including me during the most frustrating times was amazing. I could go on! Leslie has a fantastic team. There were a few times when Leslies schedule conflicted with appts for my home. She had tremendous back up and very personal service. Thank you to holly , kirsten, Devon, and other members of the Hogan staff for being such great support.
Having a trustworthy agent was our primary concern. Jeff was dedicated to our wants and needs. Devon was very and helpful when needed Jeff played an integral role in our purchase in a highly competitive market. He got us right into houses for showings, structured a P&S agreement that was a deciding factor in us getting our offer accepted, and made many key suggestions to help with a smooth closing.
Schuyler Horton went above and beyond to ensure our entire journey of finding and purchasing a property in Newport went as smoothly as possible. From first meeting all the way to closing, move-in and beyond, his professionalism, dedication and personal attention were exceptional. We've purchased several houses over the years but have never experienced the kind of attention and commitment Schuyler brought to the table from start to finish. It was a true pleasure to work with him and we cannot recommend him highly enough.
Meredith LeBlanc was incredibly knowledgable about the process and very patient with us as first time home buyers. She took the time to explain things to us, was incredibly responsive, and encouraging but not pushy. I would highly recommend Meredith LeBlanc - she helped us find our perfect home!
A great agent: knowledgeable, friendly,and professional. Our condo was quickly sold.
Tammy was fantastic at every turn, negotiating on our behalf, communicating proactively and connecting us to resources (mortgage, legal) as needed.
Matt worked exceptionally well with my brother and I through the whole first time home buying process. He knew the local multi-family trends well and easily understood our goals.
Kevan is a true professional. He is very knowledgeable and is extremely customer focused. He provides good advice and is very patient with his clients. He is well respected by other agents which is very beneficial to generating offers. He always does what he says he will do and is very responsive. I would highly recommend using Kevan for a purchase or sale of a property...His knowledge of the local market is outstanding and realistic. He puts his clients satisfaction ahead of everything else. He also has the contacts to address any issue that arises...
Meredith is a first class real estate agent. She is knowledgeable, professional and answered all of our questions promptly. I would highly recommend Meredith Leblanc for all your real estate needs!!
Matt Hadfield did an excellent job in listing my home in Middletown, RI. Him and his staff were very knowledgeable, efficient, helpful, and friendly from initial meeting to the final closing. Highly recommended!
Holly McLear’s customer service standards are top notch; she’s dependable and consistently goes the extra mile to see that her clients are satisfied. Holly exemplifies the attributes of a real estate professional - she’s reliable, communicates with confidence, does more than asked, adapts quickly and easily, and displays genuine commitment. It was a pleasure doing business with Holly!
Using was a no brainer. This was my third transaction with Jeff Brooks and I'm confident he knows exactly what my parameters are. I wasn't able to attend the initial showing, so Jeff ran a zoom tour for me that covered all important aspects, and even provided a recording that I could go back and reference. The house was in overall great shape for a rental, but Jeff did help me identify a couple of hard to spot issues that resulted in very helpful seller credits at closing. Jeff spends a ton of time on outreach with sellers and other agents, which led to this amazing off-market purchase opportunity. I got an amazing value on this purchase due to all of Jeff's hard work understanding the market and networking with the seller community.
When the home I wanted was pulled off the market, Cathy took the initiative to write a letter to the owner (snail mail!). As a result of that letter, the owner's broker showed us the house while it was off-market and I made an offer that night. This was the first house I made an offer on and it's the one I now own. You would think I was Cathy's only client the way she was laser-focused on every detail of my search and offer and closing. She's still available for advice and making sure everything is coming together for me as I prepare to move into my new home.
Always on the mark, knowledgeable and dependable. Marlene is detailed and thorough, a true professional.
Paul has been a personal friend for over forty years and is an expert in his field I would not hessiate to use Paul on all my adventures and recommend him highly to anyone.
Amanda is the first realtor we have worked with and we will all be using her again for future home buying! She was very responsive and made herself available anytime we were interested in going to any showings. She answered all of our questions to the best of her knowledge and if there was something she was unsure of, she found the answer promptly. Our closing with her couldn't have gone smoother-she was there to answer any questions that our attorney had and got us the keys to our home the same day. The whole first time buyer process can be intimidating at first but with Amanda, you have nothing to worry about-she will take the lead and guide you every step of the way!
Holly did a wonderful job for us. She is efficient, quick and trustworthy. Scott and I felt comfortable with Holly taking the reins and a dealing with the little stuff as we live out of state. Sensible and honest, we could not be happier with our selection of realtor.
Emily is truly one of a kind! She helped my husband and I every step of the way when it came to purchasing our first home. From looking for things in our price range, helping us be proactive in our search, to helping negotiate our offer and closing process, we couldn't have asked for a better realtor.
Cathy was great to work with. I have used her for he purchase of a home as well as selling a home. She is flawless, always available and very approachable. She goes above and beyond to get things done and was right on the money with sale price. I would highly recommend her to anyone.
10/10 would recommend

Jeff is amazing! I was from out of town and met Jeff via Zillow. When I submitted an inquiry for the property I eventually purchased, he responded within 2 minutes. We met at the property the following morning. Having bought, renovated and sold many homes over the years, I was immediately impressed with Jeff's knowledge of the business. He answered questions that were in my mind before I could even ask. He was amazing during the negotiation process. The seller eventually accepted after having declined several prior offers. He referred me to local professionals to assist with the closing process and all were spot on. I consider myself extremely fortunate to have been blindly assigned to him via my inquiry. Couldn't have turned out any better!
Matt was the seller's agent when we bought the property eight years earlier. We were very impressed by him then, so sought him out when it was time for us to sell. He had an excellent feel for the market and a well articulated strategy for pricing the property. We had two cash offers within 48 hours of listing the property and ended up selling it at the asking price. He continued to offer excellent advice from signing the P&S through closing. We wouldn't use anyone else.
My wife and I were blessed to have Caroline Richards working on our behalf during our recent real estate transactions. She is quite knowledgeable, trustworthy and hard working. She also communicates well and does the little things that can make a big difference! We would highly recommend her to anyone thinking about buying or selling a property in Newport.
I had a fabulous experience working with Hillary. I ask a lot of questions and she was extremely helpful in assisting me to navigate the home buying process. Hillary is super pateint, diligent, and kind. She is always very responsive when I reach out and was able to be flexible and work around my schedule. I highly recommend Hillary!!
We have a long history of working with Paul Tobak and have known him since 2002. He helped us purchase and sell two homes on Aquidneck Island. Paul is a person of high integrity and has a wealth of experience in the real estate buisness. We trust him without reservation and would happily recommend him to anyone looking to purchase or sell a home in the area. We feel blessed to know and work with Paul Tobak. He is a very knowledgeable broker and a friendly, courteous and wonderful person to know. Paul Tobak walked us through each step of our home sale. He was available for questions and offered excellent advice when we needed it. The sale of our home went very smoothly and without issue and that's because Paul Tobak handled it with expertise. Paul Tobak is one of a kind. He is one of the nicest and most knowledgeable brokers we've ever had the pleasure of meeting. Once again, we feel blessed that our paths crossed. He is trustworthy and he has subperb communication skills. We felt very well treated and very well taken care of by Paul Tobak. He made us feel like we were the most important and special client he was working with (even though we know he was working with many others at the same time). In addition to the wonderful experience we had with Paul Tobak at Hogan Associates, we also worked with Norann Warner. Norann was terrific as well. She was knowledgeable, friendly and very helpful. We felt very comfortable working with Norann Warner and would recommend her as well without reservation. Our overall experience with Paul Tobak and Norann Warner at Hogan Association was truly excellent and exceeded our expectations.
Tom Rao helped me navigate the purchase of a property that was on the verge of foreclosure. There were some roadblocks along the way but Tom overcame all of them and was able to successfully close on the property. Bravo Tom!
Michele Mullowney was quick to understand the type of property we were looking for to the extent that we put in an offer on the four family house we purchased based on photos and her recommendation. When we inspected it a few weeks later we were impressed. She also negotiated a fair price and worked hard to close the deal. She was thorough when following up on all the details and a pleasure to work with. For all these reasons I recommend her without hesitation.
Hill showed off her interior design degree while exceeding expectations as to her participation in finish and color selections, and staging this 1 of a kind new construction ocean front home. More importantly, she blew it away regarding marketing and generating showings despite it being the height of the COVID 19 challenges. As to any Seller requests, Hillary consistently proved herself to be a "can do" team member, whose follow through is second to none. Bottom line, not only did Hillary "show me the money!" she made a seller's life easier in the process.
Tammy Bass has now handled 3 real estate transactions for me, and is currently working on another. Her patience, prompt communication, and ability to solve issues that arise, in a calm and determined manner, are just some qualities that make her a kick-ass realtor! I would never know she is simultaneously and successfully working for other clients, as she makes it appear as she is my own personal concierge agent!
Holly did an EXCELLENT job helping us sell our home in Jamestown. Living out of state is a challenge when selling. Our home needed help to get ready to list. All of the hurdles, from preparing our property to the final closing were were handled expertly by Holly McLear. We were very impressed with her experience and guidance. If you are looking for a professional, honest, and dedicated realtor, you should contact Holly. You will not be disappointed!
Leslie sent a direct marketing email to me which was very informative in addition to dropping off material (and a pair of warm gloves) to my house. Leslie was very wise when it came to pricing my house. She was very quick to organize all that needed to get done to get it on the market fast even going through with an open house during a snow storm which brought out many people. Leslie is a true professional! From beginning to end Leslie handled every part of the sale with professionalism, excellent communication and experienced knowledge of the real estate market.
This was the first home my husband and I were buying and I thought of no one better than Holly to help. She is very knowledgeable of the areas we were looking to buy which was a plus since we are both not originally from Rhode Island. She was very professional and extremely patient with us. Thank you Holly for doing an amazing job we love our new home x
Jesse is the ultimate professional. She is knowledgeable, hard working, and was essential in the entire sale process. I can recommend her with enthusiasm.
She picked up on our style and needs and went above & beyond to help us find just what we were looking for. She was patient and communicative during both the search and the purchase process and we couldn't be happier!
Meredith is the best!! She recently helped me find and purchase my first home. She is very easy to work with, fun, professional and very responsive. Highly recommend!!
Gordon King was very knowledgeable in all the transactions involved when you're handling a real estate deal. I felt very comfortable with him and his expertise. Gordon was also very knowledgeable about the real estate available in the area we were looking. Gordon could read us very well and what our expectations were thus keeping our focus to the the real estate that actually met our needs.
I would highly recommend Jeff Brooks. He worked very hard to sell my property. He was always available when needed. He took care of everything that was needed to successfully sell my property. He even installed a new fire alarm that he bought with his own money, to ensure the home met inspection. The experience was very positive. I have now used Jeff's services to buy and sell property and would definitely use him again in the future.
Matt was on top of everything each step of the way. We really appreciated how communicative he was and his experience getting deals done in the current real estate market was very helpful. We would highly recommend Matt and the team at Hogan and would like to work together again in the future.
I live in Florida and Hillary was recommended to me by a trusted broker/friend here. From the very beginning, Hillary was attentive, understanding, patient, efficient and very communicative, all of which were important to me. She and a colleague Janie Aracil, were very helpful to us in getting just the right house. I would strongly recommend her/them to anyone looking for a property.
Matt Hadfield is the absolute best broker I have ever worked with He understood my wishes and was available to me nights and weekends He did not waste my time and kept me informed I totally trust his knowledge and competency in real estate and Is the person I would refer anyone to considering a place in The Newport area I hope Matt becomes a long term friend as we spend time in Newport I cannot give him a higher recommendation and I would refer Matt with that recommendation He is a true professional and my husband and I am very grateful To him for finding us a place we had hoped for .
Caroline Richard's presentation, both in writing and in person, was professional, expert and extremely well done. Caroline was remarkable,from start to finish. Caroline is the ultimate professional. She went above and beyond time and time again. I highly and without hesitation recommend Caroline Richards.
Paul is extremely professional and helpful and was more than willing to go out of his way to help me anyway possible it was great working with Paul and I would not hesitate using Paul again or recommending him to anybody Mike Tasso
Always a pleasure having Marty's expertise and professionalism on my real estate transactions!
My wife and I have worked with Leslie Hogan on a number of occasions. In our many interactions over the years, Leslie has consistently proven herself to be amongst the most market knowledgeable and customer-centric real estate brokers we have worked with. She gets our highest ratings and endorsement!
Dealt with Michele previously on another deal and very impressed. Would not use anyone else. She is the best! Her attention to detail was fabulous. She would call me with answers before I could even ask the questions.
We have relocated for work numerous times over the years, both internationally and cross country. Having the right realtor has always been one of the most important aspects of every move. However, in today’s Covid market with the lack of available real estate, it is crucial to be working with someone both knowledgeable and efficient, as you do not have the luxury of time to research properties to the extent warranted by these fast selling, top dollar properties. You snooze, you lose! You need a professional who knows the area and property – value and history, and if there are unknowns, has the contacts and drive to get the information quickly. Leslie Hogan is that realtor and more. She is exceptionally informed and knows the market extensively. She is a pleasure to work with – friendly, intelligent, and sincere-- the type of person you’d love to have as a neighbor. You are not taking any chances with Leslie, you are getting the best!
Emily Chappel was always available to answer any questions and concerns about the results of open houses, and or letting me know when there were interested parties in the property.
Tom Rao is the realtor who recently and quickly sold my condo. I could not have found a more knowlegable nor professional realtor. I have the most respect and admiration for him. The entire process was easier and more seamless than I could have dreamed. Tom worked tirelessly and competantly through all the details which made journey seem easy and seamless for me. He always kept me up-to-date about what was coming next. Tom is a wonderful person and a joy to work with. I cannot recomend him more highly.
If it weren't for Diane Harrison, I am certain we would never have found the beautiful house we can now call home. Diane was the consummate professional, friendly, trustworthy, reliable and dependable. She gave us counsel when we needed it. Was knowledgeable about current trends in realty and the neighborhood. Never pressured us to buy something she knew was not what we wanted. The process was frustrating through these unusual times as homes came and went within days and sometimes hours. We were from out of state and Diane would even visit houses for us when we were unable to see the property because of distance. We felt such confidence in her work that we never doubted she had our best interests at heart. She is a dedicated professional, a top realtor, and a wonderful person. Thank you Diane!
Cathy is an experienced and dedicated realtor who puts 100% effort in selling a property. She was indepensable in the getting the house ready - identifying priorities, timelines, vendors, contractors, and many other gems and resources. Cathy was quick to return phone calls, and was terrific to work with from our first contact. Her instincts about the most important details to the buyer and ability to get them done quickly were instrumental to the success of the sale. Thank you Cathy for all the advice and help through this process. I would not hesitate to recommend her to anyone.
Caroline was a gem to work with throughout the whole purchase process. For every question or request I had, Caroline responded almost immediately. As this was my first time going through the process, Caroline was a great guide and incredibly helpful when it came to making sure I was prepared for next steps. I was grateful to have Caroline on my team.
please consider the above comments as my testimonial
When I recently found myself in the market to purchase my first home, I walked into the agency where Barbara was working. It was my good fortune that she happened to be the agent on duty at the time. I had relatively little time to find a home and move out of my apartment, and she worked closely with me to find a very nice place in my price range. I was very happy with the work Barbara did for me, and I would seek her out if ever in the market again.
Jeff Brooks was the absolute best educator, advisor, and supporter for us throughout the entire home search and buying process! As first-time home buyers, there was so much we didn't know and Jeff helped us understand everything from the smallest detail to the biggest things with great patience and care. He hit that wonderful balance of being a fierce advocate for us while also making sure to lead with heart. Jeff took the time to get to know us as people first to better understand our needs and find the best home for us! We would do this all over again with him! Thank you, Jeff, for helping us find and acquire our dream home!
We went with my sister in law's enthusiastic recommendation of Tammy Bass. Tammy was simply the best partner in our house buying process! Being out of state buyers, we would not have been able to do it without her. Her responsiveness, abundant knowledge, attention to detail, and reassuring demeanor made a huge difference for us as first-time buyers. She also recommended several other professionals (lawyer, financial professionals, even a plumber!) who worked out really well for us. We would absolutely recommend her services to family and friends. Additionally, everyone at Hogan Associates was very helpful! We very much appreciated their support.
My home was only on the market for a short period of time, so that was very important to me as the seller. The photos Emily took of the house for advertising helped to highlight the features of my old house and I believe that is why the property sold so quickly. Emily was always available to answer questions and provide a prompt response as needed. As we approached the closing date Emily provided open communication and follow-up to all the details required to make the closing go smoothly. My experience with Hogan Associates and Emily was positive and I would recommend both.
I have not had a moment of anxiety in this adventure called home purchase. No question or concern has been unimportant. Holly has responded quickly and carefully to any request. I expected no less after my daughter's experience working with her. Holly is going to help me sell my current home and I have no doubts at all about her commitment to this next step.
First, Kevan Campbell is very nice person. He is an exceptional representation of what a top real estate agent should exemplify. I am so grateful to him in that I could relax knowing he was always one step ahead of what I was pondering over next. If your agency gives an annual bonus sharpen your pencil while he is under your agency and motivate with a big bonus , never overlook this guy!!!!!!!
Jeff Brooks cleared up several issues that would have made me walk away from the sale. My son used Jeff Brooks and was completely satisfied with him. He said Jeff was very responsive.and very knowledgeable. I chose to work with Jeff Brooks based on his experience. Jeff Brooks was a pleasure to work with and was very helpful with contacts for financing, insurance and construction.
Matt did a great job finding the specific type of property we were interested in. He always responded to questions and calls in a timely manner. His ideas and feedback after closing were well thought out and helpful. The property closed a few weeks ago and he is still in touch and happy to help with anything that comes up. Will definitely work with him again.
Emily handled the sale of my mother's home after my mother passed away. Her calm professionalism and personable nature made a very emotionally difficult time much easier to get through. Furthermore, her market knowledge netted us a sales price that I and my family were very happy with. Her quality of service is excellent and I will certainly hire her again.
Colleen was awesome. Very professional and always available to answer any questions I had. I would recommend her to anyone looking for a great agent.
We were fortunate to have Kevan respond to our Realtor.com request to see the property. However, from the very first visit, Rob and I both knew that Kevan was very knowledgeable and an exceptional realtor. Kevan went beyond anything we every expected to help close this real estate deal and he made sure that the entire process went smoothly. Kevan is the best realtor we have ever had the privilege to work with. Excellence through and through. If Rob and I needed anything, Kevan was there to provide the information and, on several occasions, the man power to make it happen. He communicates very timely and well. Kevan shares his resources to quickly resolve concerns. Excellent!!!!! Kevan Campbell is an exceptional realtor. His attention to detail is greatly appreciated.
I interviewed several realtors, most of whom I knew personally, so I thought hard and long about who my choice should be. Leslie gave me a secure feeling that she was very experienced in the business and that she was able to envision the many possibilities that my property could afford to the right buyer. She said it would be a complicated sale, and it was. However, she was incredibly calm and had a positive attitude throughout the process. It was her calm assurance that allowed me to feel that all would turn out well. I noticed also that in all the interactions she had with potential buyers, realtors, lawyers and city officials she was noticeably calm and kind. I can imagine she had done this hundreds of times before and that was very encouraging to me as I have not sold property hundreds of times. I feel and also my friends felt that I made the right decision in choosing Leslie, and I am very happy with the outcome.
Holly McLear was very patient, honest, detail oriented, and listened to what we were looking for. We appreciated her feedback and her extensive knowledge of the area and the neighborhood. Holly was very helpful in negotiating with the other broker during our transaction as well as addressing issues that arose during the inspection. She was very accommodating and readily available. We would recommend her whole heartedly!
We have worked with well over than a dozen realtors over the years and Gordon King is the best of those realtors. Gordon King worked patiently, and consistently, over several years with us utilmatley finding us the perfect home for our family.
We are first-time home buyers who worked with Gordon King to purchase a multi-family home in Providence, RI. We can't recommend Gordon enough, for experienced home buyers and novices alike! We met Gordon at an open house almost a year before we ultimately purchased our home. Gordon stood out amongst other realtors because he is exceedingly patient, kind, and didn't push us to make any rash decisions. During our home search process, we saw 30+ homes and made multiple offers. Gordon never flinched, even as we changed our target from Newport to Providence, single family to multi family, and historic to contemporary. Gordon is calm, tolerant, and knowledgeable -- a real pleasure to work with. During the actual home purchase process, Gordon went out of his way on many occasions. For example, he hand-delivered our down payment, and he coordinated not one but three inspections (home inspector, contractor, structural engineer). He dealt with a very challenging selling agent and he never complained, not even when our home purchase cut into his vacation! As first time home buyers, we were especially happy to have such a patient realtor to walk us through the process. Gordon really knows the Rhode Island market through and through, and manages to make the experience understandable and clear. We can't recommend him highly enough!
Our purchase of the Middletown RI home was an exceptional experience, I wouldn't go to anyone else but Tammy! Tammy's build a great relationship with us over the years and truly helps us to make the best decision. Tammy is very organized, timely and professional. We value her extensive knowledge and guidance. We are very happy with our recent purchase and have recommended Tammy to our friends. THANK YOU!!!!!!!
Tammy is a highly skilled professional who works hard to cultivate relationships in the area and facilitate a smooth process for the parties she represents. Evidenced by her sales record even in a pandemic! Her attention to detail and professionalism were extremely appreciated. Our home was scheduled to list months earlier but paused due to Covid 19 concerns. Tammy kept interest high and marketed well with ‘coming soon’ prior to being active on MLS. The buzz was so helpful, to have buyers interested quickly with the limitations during the restrictions for safety. We would use her services again when purchasing in the area and have recommended highly to several neighbors, family members, and friends relocating to the area.
We felt like we'd know Cathy Wicks forever, right off the bat. She is genuine. There was no artifice or 'sales face' to any interaction we had. If we ever need a real estate agent again, we know who to call: Cathy.
Hillary was great! She made sure to find a house that fit all of my criteria and then some. She was very thorough when working with the seller's agent and inspectors, asking questions I hadn't thought of and pointing out issues in homes I hadn't seen. I had a fantastic experience working with her and can't recommend her enough!
Hillary was a powerful advocate for us who helped keep the deal on track even when last minute obstacles were thrown up. We really appreciated working with her and would highly recomend her to anyone who needs a realtor!
I researched and interviewed a few Realestate agencies before deciding on Hogan Assoc/Christie's International. Both Dominique Frazier and Tammie Bass were amazing. Their marketing strategy was so strong that I sold my home within 48 hours of being on the market. They worked quickly and seamlessly not only in the sale of my home but also in the purchase of my new home. Their expertise as agents was obvious. They facilitated and coordinated the construction of a 2,000 sq foot deck prior to the sale of my home with ease. There referral was to a true craftsman who's work was inpecable and timely. They were readily available to answer any questions and allay any concerns. It was clear they were working for me, proving guidance and always with my best interest in mind. I highly recommend both Dominique and Tammie without reservation!
Tammy Bass is unparalleled. Tammy looked out for us in every aspect of the sale, coming up with innovative solutions and being an excellent advocate every step of the way. In a rapidly changing market, Tammy's precise estimation of the proper sales price for our property was critical (we know she went the extra mile to research this for us and are grateful for her effort and expertise). We also found her excellent people skills, real estate smarts and well-organized team extremely helpful. We've sold four homes and this was by far the best experience. We will definitely recommend Tammy Bass to family and friends.
It was a pleasure working with Tom Rao to sell our property. He explained all the steps in detail and advised us through the entire process. This enabled us to have a great outcome. I would not hesitate to recommend Tom to anyone trying to sell or buy real estate.
Barbara went above and beyond. As first time home buyers we had many questions and a tight timeline for seeing potential homes. She was extremely knowledgeable, flexible, detail oriented and helpful throughout our buying process. I would definitely recommend working with her!
Have bought and sold four other properties on Aquidneck Island over past thirty years. This transaction was the best experience, largely due to Holly.
If I didn't have Cathy as my realtor this sales experience would've been a nightmare. The lender was awful and the seller's agent seemed very inexperienced. Cathy was able to push all parties forward and make sure we were always on track. I would recommend everyone I know that moves into town to use her as their realtor.
When I first met Tom Rao it was during a very emotional time for me. I had cared for my uncle in his home while he was in hospice care and was then traveling back and forth from NJ to RI to settle his estate. I had finally realized that selling his house was the best decision as I did not have the expertise to do the needed renovations myself. It was my childhood home as well and where I had grown up in a loving extended family with my mother, my grandparents, and my uncle. Tom and I met and made a plan. He was very knowledgeable and made the process seem easy. I'm sure I wasn't the most difficult client he ever had but neither was I the easiest. Tom was patient and understanding with me through my panic attacks and indecisiveness and helped me set time lines and goals to counter my procrastination. Once I finally committed to a date for the house to go on the market, it sold within days at above the asking price. Tom was my rock through the whole process. Thank you, Tom!
Emily made the home buying process easy and enjoyable. She was always available to answer any questions at all, and she never made me feel stupid for asking them. I felt confident in my decision to buy with Emily's support and guidance. She shared in my excitement when my offer was accepted, which was the most appreciative part of all. I cannot recommend Emily Chappell enough. Her wisdom and expertise are unmatched.
Holly was extremely professional and had extensive knowledge of the area. House hunting was a stress free experience because we knew Holly had the experience to provide us with information regarding new listings as well as being accomdating to our busy schedule. My wife and I would highly recommend Holly.
Tammy is the absolute best! She worked tirelessly to make our home buying experience successful and as stress free as possible. When we ran into issues with the VA and bank, she worked around the clock to solve the problems, take things off our plate, and get us to closing. We couldn't be more thankful for Tammy's efforts and highly recommend her for whatever your realty needs are.
Kevan was attentive and helpful right from the beginning. He was very prompt in replying to our initial questions which helped him get our account. Kevan's recommendations for local resources was so helpful since we were out of state. Although we were buying from out of state, we always felt close because of Kevan's great communication. Hel was always reachable. Mr Campbell never left our side during this process.
Chris and his wife Kaley were patient and attentive to our needs. They were helpful and helped guide us with the sale of our house. Chris even came over and helped repair our fence before a showing. Taylor
Matt is extremely professional. I never felt pressured by him in anyway. Matt is very honest and trustworthy. I would strongly recommend hin.
Over the course of selling 3 different family homes in 2022 Leslie has exceeded all my expectations and she has such a terrific personality that I have found myself feeling I have a lifetime friend. If you are buying or selling a home in Rhode Island I would strongly recommend you hire Leslie and her team.
We worked with Michele Mullowney. She was excellent.
We have worked closely with Leslie before. She is probably the best broker we ever had. She is responsive, knowledgeable and firm (in a nice way when she has to be)!! She had a very difficult client and broker on the other side of our deal. We could not have done it if we did not have her! Once again, she is the best!
Dealt with Tom before would highly recommend him to anyone Very good too work with Went very smoothly Didn’t deal with any one else Tom is very knowledgeable,patient and cares about his clients!
As mentioned previously in the survey, it was a pleasure to deal with Kathy. She was always available, and I felt she had our best interests at heart. She made what could have been a very difficult process so much easier because of her knowledge and experience in the area. I would highly recommend her.
Diane Harrison was tremendous during my search process. Very patient and If I liked a home had a viewing within hours. She was knowledgeable and caring. I would recommend Diane to everyone. Mark
I could not be happier with my experience working with Elizabeth. She went above and beyond to make the process of buying my first home as easy as possible. I would STRONGLY recommend her to anyone interested in buying a home in Newport. Thank you Elizabeth!
We sat with Tom Rao and right off the bat he spent four hours with us making sure my 81 year old father and myself understood everything and that we were comfortable with our decisions. There was no pressure. He went over a game plan and executed exactly as he said he would. Keeping to his word and setting out to get us top dollar for our property. Open house was set for a Saturday and we had several offers by Sunday. Within a week we were signing a contract from more than we ever imagined we would get for the house. Also during that time Tom Rao was accessible 24 hours a day for any concerns or questions we may have. He also went out of his way to help us with things that weren’t necessarily in his job description Because that’s just the kind of human being he is. My father had sold five houses before this was our first time with Tom Rao and if we ever sold again there would be no question we would go away as Tommy is the best of the best. Professional, kind,
Elizabeth is the most professional and knowledgable agent I have ever worked with. She knows the market inside and out and was able to schedule every showing within my unfortunately small window of time. I was able to make a decision on a property and we closed within 45 days. Her contacts are top notch and the whole process was seamless. I couldn't recommend her more!!
This was our third real estate transaction with Tammy, and the trust she has built with us is pretty much priceless. Most importantly, she is ALL about the details, and there is never a delay with follow-up on a question or concern, no matter how small; she stays on the trail and won't stop until every stone is unturned. Secondly, we have FUN together, which is enormous because buying or selling a house is generally pretty stressful. As a person, she is kind, generous, thoughtful, and always looks FABULOUS! We love you Tammy!
This is the second time that Gordon has helped us find a property in Newport. Each time, Gordon has been extremely helpful and diligent in finding us the right property. He always has our best interests in mind and got us amazing deals both times. In my opinion, a referral is the best compliment to give, and I passed Gordon along to my cousins to help with the sale of their house. They were extremely happy with his services, as well. 10 out of 10
Superb service and attention to detail
We absolutely loved working with Marty! At every step during the process, which was complicated at some points, she supported us, shared her extensive knowledge about the market and managed the process with grace and integrity. We feel so fortunate to have worked with her and look forward to recommending her to others!
I worked with Michele previously and it wasn't even a question as to who I called when I needed to begin the home search process again. As many times as I buy and sell property on the island is as many times as I will work with Michele. She is upfront, knowledgable, and someone who I have always felt had my best interest at heart, not only as a buyer, but for my own personal set of circumstances as well. I am an exceptionally detail oriented person, particularly with the home buying process. The first time I worked with Michele was the first time I bought a home and she was extremely helpful in answering all of my questions and even helping me to think of and consider things I wouldn't have known to care about. In fact, I asked so many detailed questions of the first agent I worked with (who to her credit was newer to the industry) that Michele ended up stepping in and taking over. For all of these reasons I worked with her again during my second home buying process which differed in a lot of ways, and yet again she answered my questions and was amazing to work with every step of the way. She is the best!
Marlene not only handled the sale exceptionally well, but she managed the preparation of the property for sale, which would have been very hard for me to do, since I am in California. She was very professional at every step in the process.
Jeff has gone above and beyond for our family. His local knowledge and trusted recommendations were so valuable throughout our home buying process. I wouldn't want to work with anyone else.
Shannon found me my forever home! She knows her stuff and I had complete confidence in her - that she would point things out when we went to see homes and/or things to consider in disclosures. This was my fourth home purchase and Shannon was - hands down - the BEST realtor that I have worked with. I would highly recommend her and will never use anyone else. Kim Swirsky
Colleen really knows the local market. This was my third time working with her; twice as a seller and once as a buyer. She was very helpful in buying the right property and both sales were less than 2 weeks and at a price I was very happy with. The paperwork and online forms were clearly explained and easy. There were no delays and nothing missing. Experience counts for everything. I would highly recommend her.
Leslie is the consummate professional. A joy to work with and a pleasure to be around. No better choice.
Very efficient with closing and readily available to answer questions.
Holly is great! She knows the region, people in the area, and properties. I explicitly trust Holly handling my property requirements. She’s the model for real estate agents. My fiancée instantly saw what I saw in her as well! I’ve bought and sold 25-30 houses for personal use and rentals. I know an excellent agent when I see one and Holly is one! This was a very challenging closing: in COVID, with a difficult loan officer team and difficult underwriter over a 90-day period. Holly held the line and advised me throughout the process.
No question... Jeff is the best at what he does. We bought one through Jeff and liked the experience so much, we had him sell one for us. On the market for only 10 days and had a signed p&s. His pricing and marketing were 100% on point. Will definitely use him in the future. Thank you Jeff
Jeff is extremely knowledgeable of local real estate and what is going on in the surrounding areas. Well studied on the current & and future market trends.
Holly McLear was honest and approachable from the beginning. She helped us find a house while overcoming the obstacle that we were not local at the time. She was happily able to use alternative ways of communication such as skype, videos, etc in order to help us find a property and complete needed paperwork. We greatly appreciated her honest opinions about different neighborhoods and both positives and negatives of the properties we were viewing. She has so much knowledge about the local market, traffic patterns, local hot spots, etc. that made selecting a neighborhood much easier! She worked with us for several months to find a home and now after closing she is still in contact to help us solve some of the extra issues involved with the sale and even just relocating to the area. I would highly recommend Holly McLear to anyone looking for a home!
Caroline Richards was the agent for the seller when we bought our home, and she was obviously a great realtor. We decided it was in our best interest to have Caroline as our agent when we sell. Caroline is so pleasant that we just really enjoyed getting to know her. That is in addition to the professional job she did for us. Perfect service and results. Caroline was really just perfect at the entire process for us.
We recently purchased a condominium in Moorland Farm in Newport, RI. Gordon represented the buyer but was very helpful to us in the negotiations and obtaining information for us from the condo association. In addition, we requested the right to enlarge the deck space which he facilitated through the seller. He was extremely knowledgeable about every aspect of this process and went above and beyond to ensure that the sale and purchase of the property happened in a timely manner. Gordon was always professional and responsive. I highly recommend Gordon if you are considering selling your property or obtaining an agent to help you find a property.
Thank you Caroline!! Working with you on the sale of my property was a pleasure. Your knowledge of the market combined with an unquestionable work ethic got my property sold in weeks vs months.!! Thank you for for going over and above in getting the job done!
Hillary is an excellent realtor. She was always a consummate professional with her clients (our) best interest in mind. We were an out-of-state midwest client whose build timeline was extended multiple times over 2 years. She went out of her way to help fill gaps when we could not travel to be in attendance and she even helped filled the gaps that the sellers Realtor was not fulfilling or not fulfilling in a timely manner. I would recommend her to anyone in need of a diligent realtor who follows up timely and is very responsive and organized. A
Cathy is extremely knowledgable about the local market and she had a vast network of professionals and real estate experts to work with. I don't think we could have accomplished our goals without Cathy , and we look forward to working with her again soon.
Caroline had just sold our previous house (in 12 hours!) so it was a shoe-in that we would work with her to purchase a new house. She is smart, organized,conscientious and worked her tail off for my husband and me. It was a no brainer we'd use her to purchase our next house. Caroline was above and beyond excellent in getting us the house we loved and had been drooling over. Her 24/7 service was always with a big smile. Our purchase with her by our side was seamless (at least from what we as the clients could see, which is all that really matters!) and everything she recommended, we followed her orders;) You absolutely cannot find a more professional or dedicated broker who knows the market in Newport inside and out- as she is a longtime (extremely bright) resident of Newport. My own mother, a very successful residential realtor of 45 years, set the bar very high for my pre-conceived ideas about how realtors should work, and Caroline met or exceeded those expectations by far. Thank you Caroline!
Elizabeth Enochs was amazing to work with! She was very knowledgable and kind. We needed an agent who was experienced in Trust owned property and she did not disappoint. She asked all the right questions from day one. Elizabeth truly went above and beyond with coordination of cleaning and staging. I would highly recommend her to anyone and I hope we have the opportunity to work together again!
Jeff Brooks is an excellent agent. He guided me through the purchase of my first home and answered all of my questions every step of the way. Jeff put in an extraordinary amount of effort finding listings in my price range and helped me to understand what type of value I could expect in my budget. Jeff is very knowledgeable and is able to explain any step of the process; I came into this process without much background and found that I could trust Jeff to steer me in the right direction. The thing I appreciated the most about Jeff is that he treated me with a ton of respect. The combination of my age (I was 24 when I started looking) and my relatively low budget led other agents to speak condescendingly to me and not take my questions seriously. Not Jeff, he was a consummate professional and acted as if every one of my questions and concerns were valid. Give Jeff a call if you're purchasing your first home. He will make the process go as smooth as possible.
I couldn't be happier with Jesse Ross, she was amazing to work with and would highly recommend her to anyone who is buying a home
thanks Kevan, you helped my dream come true!
Schuyler went above and beyond- in both helping me to first purchase my home, then when it came time, to sell. He was such an integral part in the most smooth, professional and hands-on way possible. From my initial purchase offer, with inspections, communicating with the seller's broker, to then negotiating the purchase. When deciding to sell, Schuyler was integral with getting the house ready to present in the best way. Using his top notch marketing team and structure, then listing on all the best sites, which built great interest, offers and pricing. He even got some cosmetic repairs completed while I was out of town and was most helpful with adding some curb-appeal and details in staging. I could not have succeeded without him. Beyond this, he is just a kind, good guy. I am so thankful to have had the best experience possible and to have the pleasure of knowing such a professional and gentleman. I would strongly recommend him as your agent. Thank you Schuyler!
The last 3 houses we sold, Leslie represented us and each one went extremely well. She was able to sell all 3 properties in very little time. At one point we had 2 properties listed at the same time and Leslie's team had buyers within the first 2 weeks or so. Actually, a closing for one was on a Friday and the second property closed the following Monday. Now that is truly a successful business! I would highly recommend Leslie and Hogan Associates to everyone! Keep up the great work!!
We felt like we were in such good hands with Cathy. She is super knowledgeable at what she does. I would highly recommend Cathy Wicks to anyone looking to buy a house....and we would certainly call on her again in the future if we ever wanted to sell. I had bought 2 houses in Massachusetts years ago and I have to say that Cathy was... and is, by far, the best agent that I have dealt with. Buying a house is very stressful and Cathy was awesome to work with. She was so efficient in returning emails and calls making the buying process a little less stressful and a little more like an enjoyable experience. We will be forever grateful to Cathy for helping us find our perfect home!
Tom Rao was so professional took the time to help me find the proper people to make repairs that my house needed and made sure they followed through with the work. All I can say is I really appreciated him and would highly recommend him to anyone selling there home
we enojoyed working with Shannon, she is very knowledgeable, skillfull, proactive and efficient, we'd highly recommend her.
Jeff is the best buyer agent on Aquidneck Island. His local and market knowledge are very impressive.
Diane Harrison was a pleasure to deal with. She knew the market, and her research on the market proved invaluable when we priced our property. We got an offer within a day. Once the offer was accepted Diane guided us and followed through with every detail.
Holly was wonderful to work with. She really helped us feel comfortable in the short sale of our home. We really had no idea what was going to happen and she was just fabulous. Very knowledgeable of all the details and was there for us every step of the way. I would recommend her to anyone buying or selling their home. Holly was extremely helpful and really went above and beyond to help us with the sale of our home. The details in closing are always very overwhelming but she was fantastic in handling all that for us. We thought Holly was wonderful and would use her again when we are ready to purchase a new home.
We worked with Leslie Hogan during the craziness of the spring/summer of 2021. My wife and I were looking for our first home and doing it from a distance. Working with Leslie was amazing. Not only is she an expert in her area she is also the consummate professional. She answered all of our "first-time buyer" questions and never made us feel like we were the rookies. Leslie was always willing to talk and was honest with us about different properties. She also took the time to get to know us to keep our priorities in mind while watching the market closely. Leslie was quick to do remote walk-throughs and support us through the bidding process. We highly recommend working with Leslie, and we are so thankful that she was our partner in this process.
We cannot recommend Gordon enough! We are in love with our home but if we were buying again we would use Gordon in a heartbeat. We were first time home buyers that were moving from Boston to RI so we were looking for someone that knew the market well and could guide us through the whole process. With Gordon, we got that 1,000 times over. He truly guided us and educated us throughout the whole process - from our initial phone call, through putting in offer, inspections, closing, post-closing work, and he even emailed us yesterday (two months post-close) to check in. Gordon is truly fantastic. Over the course of our home buying process he was many things: educator, guide, advisor, advocate, sounding board, and friend. He was always (truly always) available to discuss anything that was on our minds. Throughout the process, he was a fierce advocate for us and fought for what we wanted while still being respectful and professional. With Gordon's help, we secured a waterfront home at an attractive price - something we never thought we would say in this market. We could not have asked for a better realtor. Many people we spoke to told us their realtors disappeared after signing but the post-signing process is where Gordon truly shined. He helped us pick the right inspectors and advisors, was available to meet with inspectors when we couldn't make it, and helped us arrange for painters to come right after we closed (in a market where it is almost impossible to get a painter!). Our closing process went incredibly smoothly and we truly owe that to Gordon. Gordon is a wonderful realtor and person - he has a great eye and sense of the market. He is knowledgeable, thoughtful and incredibly likable. And, the icing on the cake, he has amazing connections in the Newport area and was able to recommend wonderful contractors to make our new house our own.
Tom was a great broker and was a tremendous help in selling my property, which was also a bed and breakfast and a difficult sale. His guidance was invaluable, and he kept me informed throughout the process. Tom's communication skills were excellent, and he promptly addressed my concerns. Overall, working with Tom was great, and he handled many issues that came up during the negotiations. I will highly recommend him to anyone looking for a reliable broker to sell their property.
Kevan paid close attention to detail and consistently answered my multitude of questions. This agent was available at all times from start to finish over the course of a three month period. I couldn't have asked for a better experience over the course of this closing.
I had an excellent experience purchasing a home through Kevan in Newport. He is responsive and accommodating and listened carefully to understand my needs. His local knowledge and insight added to his credibility and to my overall comfort level with the transaction. I highly recommend Kevan to anyone who desires a pleasant and trusted partner in a real estate transaction.
Barbara O'Reilly is genuine and extremely knowledgeable in the Newport Real Estate. We hired her to at first rent out our condo, then decided to hired her to sell it. I highly recommend her. She cares about her clients. I, myself am a Realtor in Georgia, so I have an idea of what is a great realtor vs someone just wanting the sale!
Kevan was such a pleasure to deal with! He has gone over and above in helping us and we could not be happier. He is professional and so available and always went the extra mile for us.We are Brokers in Florida and have our own agency so we can tell you Kevan has great amount of local knowledge and made himself available at all times to accommodate us as we were out of town. He made great suggestions and was able to guide us to the right property for us. We could not be more grateful for Kevan's help with our purchase.
When we were looking for a condo for our daughter recently, we contacted Meredith. Within a day we had appointments for 3 showings, and within a few weeks, she found us the perfect one. She’s committed, hardworking and always available. Thanks, Meredith!
We first met Jeff in searching for a starter home over a decade ago. His hands-on, all-in approach immediately won us over. We have since purchased and sold three properties with Jeff at the helm. On our recommendation, he represented our brother-in-law and grandmother in separate purchases and sales over the years. Jeff's expertise and dedication has been unwavering over the years, and we give him our resounding endorsement.
Paul Tobak is always excellent, attentive to the needs of the seller, but very thoughtful of the needs of the buyer as well. Paul also has a clear understanding of how to work with tenants around how to show the property for marketing.
Matt did an excellent job, I could nt have asked for a better experience
Caroline "cold-called" my wife and me a few years ago. Both of us were very impressed with her initiative, intelligence and her drive to succeed. When the time came to put our house on the market, Caroline managed the process brilliantly and the house sold remarkably quickly. Caroline also acted as our agent for the purchase of our new home which turned out to be an extremely complex and difficult situation . Again, she tackled all the obstacles that emerged in this purchase and she succeeded in closing the deal for us. Before, during and after the sale of our previous home and the purchase of our new one, Caroline has been such a helpful and proactive partner with us. She makes the process seem effortless, even when the going gets rough.
Matt Hadfield was great to deal with once again. After finding us our first home over 10 years ago and now helping us sell it and buy our new home... we couldn't imagine having to do it again without him. His knowledge of the area and of real estate in general is vast. We always know he has our best interest in mind. I highly recommend Matt Hadfield and Hogan and Associates with any real estate needs.
Matt built a great plan for a complicated property and carried it out beyond our expectations. His insight and experience made the process seamless. I would recommend him to anyone buying or selling a property.
Big kudos to Hillary Olinger for making this long distance transaction possible. Hillary is realistic and extremely knowledgeable about real estate, the area, and the advantages and drawbacks of particular properties. She is much more hands-on than most agents with regard to needed work and assessing what is possible. She is organized, helpful, optimistic, generous with her time and just a pleasure to be around. She is also a fund of information with regard to local contacts. Every challenge and every request was met cheerfully and many, many times I felt she had gone above and beyond what was required or expected. I'm sure I would have given up the search without her!
I can't speak highly enough of my experience working with Cathy Wicks! Cathy made the process of purchasing a home very easy and smooth from beginning to end. Her knowledge of the local market is impressive and was extremely valuable during my search and throughout negotiations. She took the time to understand my wants and needs and was quick to respond to all communications. Cathy is a true pro, and I would recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable agent!
I wholeheartedly & enthusiastically recommend Elizabeth Enochs. Elizabeth was incredibly professional and knowledgeable throughout the entire process. Her communication was excellent, as well as attention to detail, and she was instrumental in the negotiation process. Elizabeth is a very skilled agent who was an absolute pleasure to work with.
We have worked with Cathy before and appreciate her honest approach to selling houses. We were very happy with the outcome. We love Cathy!
We had a very difficult closing due to a very uncooperative seller. We don't think we could have completed the purchase without her.
I was a first time home buyer and Jeff is a huge part of why I finally have a home of my own. He gave me invaluable advice at every step. He showed me any house I asked for, as well as finding some good options I hadn't seen, and even decidedly turned me against some that he knew weren't right when he could've gone for the easy sale and quick buck. When we found the right house, he moved quickly and decisively to make sure I got my house. Highly recommend.
Jeff was incredible throughout my home buying process! We looked at a lot of properties in the area before I found the one and Jeff was always patient and available to help at the drop of a dime. It's so important to have a responsive agent in this market. Jeff is super well versed in the area and was professional and efficient in negotiating and communicating with the sellers on my behalf. I also really appreciated his connections to help me find an Attorney, inspectors, and even my mortgage lender. Thanks again ,Jeff!
Gordon has always done a great job for us. He has a great approach and always offers excellent advice. He has a very patient demeanor, cares about our needs, and guided us through the process seamlessly.
If you are looking for a very knowledgeable and competent broker, look no further than Gordon King and Hogan & Stone!
Tammy Bass is amazing, truly loves her profession, and brings great positive energy & enthusiasm for finding her clients the perfect home. Through our process of methodically combing an incredibly tough, sparse and competitive RI market Tammy committed a ton of time to us, drove all over the state for showings, and picked us up to keep moving forward after multiple unsuccessful offers. When we found the house we knew was the one, we were ready to make the quick and serious offer it took to get the job done. Her great network of pros supported us with all the details of closing, inspection and final negotiation to make the process smooth in a condensed timeframe. Prospective buyers (or sellers) really cant do any better than Tammy, she's a superstar!
It was such a pleasure working with Tom. He helped out in more ways than we could have asked and was able to get us the perfect place! I will absolutely be asking Tom to please assist in properties again in the future. In addition, he helped my boyfriend and I reach our goal of lowered monthly rent closer than what was proposed in lease agreement, which made everything a much more pleasant experience. He also made the moving process easier on us by having certain furnishings removed from the apartment we had asked before signing and upon move-in date. Lastly, Tom quickly set-up a showing the day after I showed him the listing. With Newport having high demand and low supply for rentals on the market it made all of the difference. I have to say this was absolutely the most easiest and less stressful rental search and lease agreement I've ever experienced here in Newport.
Caroline Richards is a true professional and was a pleasure to work with. She understood our needs from our first conversation and exceeded our expectations in every category. We picked Caroline Richards because of her extensive knowledge of the local community and real estate experience. Caroline is the best realtor we have ever worked with throughout the years and is highly recommended.
Trajabar con Janie Aracel, en la búsqueda de mi nuevo hogar fue placentero, ella siempre trabajó en base a mi tiempo, lo cual lo hizo muy bien, ya que yo contaba con tiempo límite para realizar la compra, ella siempre fue puntual y cuidadosa con los tiempos, me sentí seguro, confiado, y acompañado durante todo el proceso, ella siempre fue muy respetuosa y profesional, gracias Janie lo logramos!!! gracias a su compromiso y entrega.
Once again, a true professional to work with. Tom Asack and family.
Kevin was superb in every aspect of this transaction. Living in Florida and buying new construction, Kevin did a fantastic job of keep us appraised of the construction status and sent photos as certain jobs were completed.
Holly McLear made every effort to find my home in a fairly quick turnaround period due to my move date to Rhode Island. She worked day and night, weekday and weekends evaluating homes on the marketplace in my price range and traveling about to allow me to virtually tour homes. I had faith in her from the start to be my eyes and ears since I was unable to visit the homes in person.. She went ABOVE and BEYOND to find the perfect home for us and I am forever grateful for her wisdom, kindness, intellect on the housing market!! Additionally, I was having issues with getting credible answers on my VA loan from my first loan officer and she assisted with getting the correct answers and provided guidance on where to turn to find out what I needed. Without the correct information, and her guidance, there would have been several issues with my mortgage. Thankfully everything worked out more than perfectly and I love my new home!! Thank you so much Holly!!
Kevan was personable, informative, responsive, communicative and professional
Kelly was extrremely professional, knowledgeable and patient. She answered all questions and provided needed guidance. I do not hesitate in recommending Kelly to any one looking to sell or purchasee a home.
It is a difficult process buying or selling a house but Tom Rao made the process simple and easy for me. I look forward to buying another piece of porperty because Tom Rao will be the one I call. I would also recommend him for any of my friends and family.
Lynn Creighton is a real pro...and great to deal with!!! You did a fine job!
Matt has once again proven to be an exceptional realtor during our recent condo purchase, ( this being our second time working with Matt). His professionalism and expertise made the transaction run smoothly and efficiently. Without a doubt, we highly recommend Matt to anyone seeking a reliable and skilled realtor.
This was the best experience I've ever had with a realter! I would highly recommend him to everyone!
Linda Kempenaar was a positive influence in the sale of our home. When we got discouraged she always maintained an upbeat attitude. Linda pays attention to details and always consulted us in every step of the process, we always understood what was happening as she kept us in the loop at all times. If we were to sell another house, which hopefully won't happen any time soon, I wouldn't hesitate to ask Linda Kempenaar to represent us.
Jeff is the most knowledgable, helpful and professional realtor that I have ever worked with. This was the first home I have bought so I had more than a few questions along the way. Jeff not only answered every question I had, more often than not he went out and found a solution. He was also great with working around my schedule which was a little difficult as I live 90 minutes away from the property I was purchasing. Jeff also put me in contact with and set up meetings with local professionals that I needed to update and maintain my new property. Any issue that arose Jeff was on top of immediately and he was great with communication. I highly, highly recommend Jeff to anyone who is looking to purchase a home in the area!
We are from out of state. Although we had visited Newport on a couple of occasions, we had no knowledge of the Real Estate Market. I saw a listing of Holly's and contacted her. She responded immeadiately and spent a lot of time hearing what we were interested in. I flew in to Newport and met her and she made arrangements for me to see multiple properties. She provided wonderful insight into the area and was right on target regarding the properties selected to tour. We mad an offer on one of the properties and multiple offers came in. Holly was great through this stressful process and did everything required to assist us in getting the Deal Done. Part of the negotiation stipulated the Closing had to be completed in a very tight time frame. Holly was great in providing all the information about utilities, insurance and Closing agents that we needed. We closed remotely with No issues. The entire process was extremely simple and stress free. Well Done!! I would Highly Recommend Holly McLear and her office to Out of State Buyers. Mark Edwards Pinehurst, North Carolina
Tammy came with amazing references among the military community in the area! Tammy was spectacular in all aspects of her performance from first meeting to after closing. Tammy went above and beyond in all aspects of her performance as our seller's agent.
Hillary is a great realtor and always works so hard for me. She goes above and beyond and is very knowledgeable. Hillary will always be at the top of my list when it comes to selecting an agent to bring me buyers and to find me deals.
Cathy is a great realtor with great knowledge. We will use her service in the our next purchase.
Cathy Wicks was very professional and knowledgeable throughout our home buying journey. We were moving from out of state, and her insights and information about the state of Rhode Island, neighborhoods and housing market was extremely helpful. Cathy is a kind, thoughtful and knowledgeable realtor who is open to any questions. We were very fortunate to work with her and greatly appreciate her help in finding our new home.
Cathy is an exceptionally hard worker who put together a detailed plan to sell our house and executed it to perfection. Having bought and sold several houses on Aquidneck Island and dealt with numerous different real estate companies, I can honestly say that she is the best agent on the Island!!
Holly did such an excellent job, was very easy to work with and so well informed regarding antique houses. I would highly recommend her services anytime.
It was clear from our first conversation the Holly McLear was knowledge, friendly, flexible, high-energy and direct. She turned out to be a fantastic resource and we were lucky to find her. Whole process was surprisingly smooth We found a friend and Realtor!
Paul Tobak is the most professional Real Estate Agent I have met and had the pleasure to work with. In every way Paul will go above and beyond to make sure you understand and work with you to finalize the transaction of the property. Paul enjoys people, is very passionate about his work and is very thourough in all his transactions. There wers issues concerning the sale of the property but Paul navigated through it all with great knowledge of Real Estate. He made sure we were well informed all the way to the closing. Thank you Paul!! You are the best.
Thank you for your assistance with what had to be removed before showings began. Thank you for your time and expertise. This was my 1st time selling. You made the process flow, and accomplished all that had to be done in a timely manner. I'd recommend you to anyone. Best regards.
Great broker. Attentive to detail. Followed through.
We recognized Lynn Creighton’s skills when she represented the seller of a home we purchased years ago. She was very professional and brought information to our attention that reflected breadth of knowledge and experience. As a result, we sought her advice over the years and remained in contact. The Hogan representatives were a pleasure to deal with. They offered professional and personalized services above and beyond what we expected. I am greatly appreciative of Lynn’s knowledge of Newport real estate and the mortgage community. She worked with us over the years providing us with market updates. It was helpful that she knew us and what we would like and what we needed. When she told us she found what we were looking for, she was totally right!
I would recommend Paul because of his vast knowledge of the Newport market, his trustworthiness and his excellent guidance.
Tammy is a dream to work with! She made both the buying and selling processes extremely easy and stress free. From decided either to rent or sell, to ensuring closing went off without a hitch, Tammy was with us every step of the way with clear and consistent communication. Not to mention, she is the one of the friendliest people and just a pleasure to work with!
Tammy is great to work with and I would recommend her to anyone looking to purchase a home in the area.
Meredith went way beyond my expectations of what a real estate agent should offer. Her communication was timely and consistent. Her willingness to figure out any and all problems was greatly appreciated. I would highly recommend Meredith to anyone seeking high quality property representation in the Newport area.
It was fantastic working with Janie. She was able to work closely with many brokers to be able to show us a wide range of properties. Once we had decided on a property, she anticipated every problem and went out of her way to find solutions to them. She reached out to all the town officials that were required for permissions. Janie knows all the local regulations and kept us fully informed about all possible problems. Janie also built an excellent relationship with the seller's broker. After the sale, Janie has made an extra effort to help us get settled in our new house!
Jeff is the finest agent with whom we have had the pleasure of working. He is honest, conscientious, smart and an all around great guy. His expert advice is always spot on and he goes out of his way to make the process easy. We enthusiastically endorse Jeff to anyone looking to sell or purchase a home!
The easiest purchase and closing I have ever done and I have done quite a few
Cathy was very prepared, presenting us with a professional packet and a step by step plan to sell our property. We admired Cathy’s honesty and strong work ethic. We found her to be trustworthy and conscientious which helped build the broker/seller relationship.We were appreciative of her knowledge and patience and we were happy with the outcome.
Cathy went above and beyond to provide stellar service for the sale of my mom's home. She gave me great tips to stage it (and helped with that as well), was very good with communicating important information and helped me navigate some very sticky situations that were created outside our control. I appreciate her transparency, availability to assist with details and dedication to getting the deal done.
Kevan Campbell is an outstanding real estate professional. He is extremely knowledgeable about the local market, respected by his colleagues, and very responsive to his clients. He is easy to work with and very patient. He never shows frustration or agitation even in difficult situations. He works to find solutions to make a deal work. Kevan is a pleasure to work with.
Tammy is simply the best. 100% recommend with no reservations. Professional, prepared, truly outstanding in every way.
Very friendly and super hardworking. I always felt like her main priority and mine her only property.
Gordon was open and available for all inquiries. Professional and knowledgeable. We were very satisfied!
Jesse Ross approached the sale of our house with professionalism, as demonstrated by her understanding of market conditions, setting the price point, effective marketing, and skillful negotiations. She set realistic expectations concerning the sale of our house, including identification of what could be done to improve a positive sale outcome. She went above and beyond the typical agent-client relationship, acting as our liaison for service contractors who were working on the house. She was also instrumental in ensuring compliance with the city of Newport's fire, taxation, and water departments, and with the legal representation necessary to bring the sale to a quick close. Jesse Ross possesses the integral characteristics that gain a client's trust; respect, and fairness for the parties involved. She actively listened, encouraged, and ensured the negotiations were fair and respectful, as evidenced by both parties settling on a negotiated price within 48 hrs. Brava!
Christopher helped my husband and I with the purchase of our vacation residence in Newport. We looked for well over a year and waited for the right property. He negotiated on our behalf and helped us throughout the process, even handling the home inspection for us because we couldn't attend. I would recommend him to anyone looking to buy or sell! You will get a knowledgeable and professional person that takes care of his clients.
Caroline is extremely professional and personal. She spent time to learn what Jane and I were looking for and was willing to spend time with us finding the best fit. We have purchased numerous properties for our own use and for investment purposes and we rate Caroline extremely high on our list of brokers.
Tammy was flexible and instructive in this whole process. Her local knowledge and familiarity with military patterns on base gave me confidence in her recommendations. I would recommend her to anyone. Tammy was also my agent and the sellers, and I think she did an excellent job representing both of our interests. I don't know if many realtors would have do as good a job balancing both parties interests.
We've purchased a couple of properties with Jeff over the last few years. His approach is meticulous and he is relentless. A native to Aquidneck island, growing up in a contractors household - his understanding of the Newport, Middletown & Portsmouth markets is second to none.
A Absolutely wonderful person friendly and very professional offered help with all aspects of selling are home
Leslie is a professional in the true sense of the word. She has a broad knowledge of the market which comes with all her years of experience and complements her innate insight / intelligence.
Holly is a valuable and trusted realtor partner. I couldn't have asked for a better process from beginning to end. She made the process so simple and streamlined for me and removed a lot of the stress of listing and selling a house.Everything from items to fix, to creative, inexpensive tips to staging my house, to getting the best valuation for my property. I truly felt like I was her only client. Not only did I get a great price for my house but it sold much faster than I would have ever expected. I credit this to Holly's knowledge of the local and surrounding markets, a great marketing campaign and being a fantastic real estate consultant.
We came into the process not knowing much because this was our first time. Finding your first home can be intimidating at times , but Janie walked us through every process and made sure that we understood what the next step was. My wife and I were very please and will definitely use Janie's services again.
Cathy did a lot of extra work that I would not have expected a broker to do. I was not living in the house and had no transportation to readily get me back and forth to attend to things that were clearly the owner's responsibility. Cathy went out of her way numerous times to make certain nothing was overlooked in preparation for showing the house and for the closing.
We are very lucky that we found Tammy Bass of the Hogan Associates to sell our house in Portsmouth, RI. We have loved working with Tammy! Her professionalism was incredible and her knowledge in the real estate business was outstanding. She was very kind and patient walking us through the whole process. Tammy was always quick to respond to all our emails, texts and phone calls, and she eased our worries. She sent her professional photographer who took amazing photos and video of our house. We believe this professional combination is why our home sold so quickly. If you are looking for the best realtor, contact Tammy Bass! We highly recommend Tammy to anyone who is looking to sell or buy a home.
I asked a trusted neighbor if he know any real estate agents and he mentioned Cathy. I reached out to her. Can’t say enough wonderful things about Cathy in every way! She truly cared about us and her patience showed no bounds! Cathy was wonderful in every way. Her knowledge, commitment to us, efficiency I would highly recommend her to anyone and everyone wishing to sell property. They were superb throughout the process. Again, I cannot say enough great things about our overall experience. It was flawless from beginning to end. Cathy Wicks should be named Realtor of the Year!!
My lawyer recommended Cathy Wicks. She was so helpful with many details. She never made me feel bad when I asked so many questions.I truly was blessed to have Cathy to work helping me through this process. She sent many pictures of open houses. She is very gifted, gave informative guidance, and extremely encouraging. If you are looking for a dedicated woman who will go above and beyond her call, you would be wise to work with Cathy Wicks.
We have worked with Tammy on 3 transactions now. We find her to be completely reliable and trustworthy, she has a great network of local service providers, and she is extremely hard working. We recommend her to all of our friends looking to transact in the Newport area. Tammy was very thorough in marketing our property and bent over backwards to present our property in the best possible light. We could not be happier with the sale of our property.
I have so much confidence in Cathy that I recommended her to my brother who used her to list and sell his house. It sold within 1 week! So we are very happy with Cath as a broker!
There is no other broker we would ever consider than Marty Easley who has successfully sold and supported closing of many of our previous properties.
From the very first conversation we had with tommy regarding our interest in buying a home, he was nothing less than outstanding. He made it extremely easy (and exciting too!). There were a few times that we wanted to set up a showing ASAP, and he made it happen the same day to our astonishment! He was honest and I always felt like I had an advocate on our side during the showings and during the buying process. He was always reachable by phone, text or email. During the inspection process, there was a potential issue with the piping and tommy knew exactly who to call to come out and take a look and the plumber was there within 24 hours. It is examples like this that make me feel extremely satisfied with the entire process and in choosing Tommy. I would without question recommend tommy to my friends and family when buying a home he was exrremenyl thoufhtful after our closing and gave us a very nice gift card to a local establishment near our new house. Hogan associates-you have a very special broken working for you and you should be very proud!!
Emily knows her stuff. She’s diligent, thoughtful, and works for her clients best interests. Emily worked to make sure we were taken care of. She helped guide us throughout the buying process and provided valuable guidance. If you’re in need of a realtor in the east bay, i would highly recommend Emily. Top notch realtor. Trust Emily to get you your next home.
Tammy Bass is extraordinary. She is always responsive to our questions/messages. She is extremely efficient and courteous. We always felt the rocky road towards closing would be smooth and gentle, with no anxieties or confusion. She also has a delightful and charming personaity. It is without hesitation that we would recommend Tammy to anyone we knew in search of a home - just as our two daughters loved Tammy and told us about her. A big thank you, Tammy.
Working with Jeff Brooks was great. Our schedule was tight and he was good about booking appointments for us that fit into our schedule, providing honest feedback on potential homes, and helping with negotiations. He helped us to determine the true value of a home, and not to get emotional about it. I would highly recommend working with him as he was professional, approachable, and honest. I appreciated the relationship we developed throughout the course of our house hunt and would not hesitate to recommend him to others.
As I stated above, Jeff Brooks was an amazing real estate agent. He was with us the entire time, especially when selecting the home for us, what we needed to stand firm on and getting us to the finish line The best part is that I made a friend, Jeff Brooks is not just there to sell or buy a house with you, he becomes part of "you".
Jeff is a partner you want to have in the home buying process! He wonderfully navigated an unfortunately tricky transaction and got us to the closing table. Very professional and personable and made the time even late at night or early in the morning to get on the phone or send docs. Thanks for all your help Jeff!
We recently sold our house and toyed with the idea of “for sale by owner.” Were we glad we changed our minds! After a thorough review of local realtors, we selected Leslie Hogan, one of the co-owners of Hogan Associates. We couldn’t have made a better choice. Leslie was the ideal person to shepherd us through the arduous home sale process. I can honestly say that the house sale process proved to be one of our most challenging undertakings to date. Leslie was the ideal partner every step of the way. Her vast experience, calm demeanor, intricate knowledge, and ethical behavior provided what we needed to keep things in perspective during all phases of this demanding activity. Leslie worked with us throughout the process. At every decision point, options were discussed before a decision was finalized. Her breadth of experience, accompanied by her calm, relaxed manner, were especially crucial and comforting at these junctures. She was never pushy, and decisions were always mutually acceptable and a collaborative effort. Shortly before closing, we encountered a potentially problematic situation. After discussing several options, the situation was resolved after we agreed on a mutually acceptable, ethical solution that Leslie presented to the buyer in her calm, elegant manner. Leslie’s skill at handling difficult situations was evident throughout the sales process and it was always accompanied by her unflappable, pleasant demeanor. We could not have wished for a better, more likeable person to be by our side during this process. We are certain that anyone who hires her to guide them through the house sale process will have a positive experience with a truly delightful, ethical realtor.
I really appreciated that Jeff explained everything in detail, answered all of my questions patiently, and fought for us to get the best deal. I am going to recommend Jeff to all of my friends in the area. He is a great guy who is good at what he does.
Tammy was wonderful in helping us sell our home and with the purchase of our new home. She does all she can to make the process easier for us as both buyer and seller, which we so appreciate! Tammy takes the time to listen to what's important to us and communicates every step of the way! Would absolutely recommend Tammy!
Diane Harrison followed up on all the issues, has a good knowledge of the market and was a pleasure to work with. I would not hesitate to recommend Diane Harrison
Cathy was very knowledgeable about the neighborhood and was very honest about what my expectation should be on a sales price. Cathy was also very thorough and updated me every step of the way. As an out of state seller if you need to feel comfortable that you’re taken care of at the house so that I didn’t have to worry about any overall Cathy did And outstanding job.
Cathy is extremely knowledgeable about what is needed when buying and selling homes. We have used her for both many times now. She is always available for questions and showings. We will definitely refer her to others in the future.
My husband and I worked with Holly to purchase our first home and we were not "Easy" to please. Besides being a little "picky and having a budget as well as being 7 months pregnant Holly was amazing!! She knew what style we wanted, she got us in to see houses at the last minute and worked around our crazy work schedules. She was patient and kind but she was also very honest and that helped up to find the perfect house. Holly also pointed us in the right direction to get the best financing and set us up with the right people. She is very dedicated to each of her clients, I'm sure she has a lot but she always made us feel like we were the only ones. We are now looking for house #2 and Holly is already working diligently to find us the perfect "forever" home. If you need a relator to buy or sell your home call Holly, she is amazing!!!
My husband and I were first time homebuyers navigating an unprecedented market during a global pandemic and we could not have done it without the help of Meredith. We cannot stress enough how much we appreciate her hard work and dedication to our home search. Meredith is prompt in answering any and all questions and had our best interests in mind throughout the process. We canât thank her enough!
I want you to know how much I appreciate the excellent service you provided on the process of buying my home. Your attention to detail, great communication skills, and ready smile made the experience even better than I expected. I won't hesitate to bring future clients to you. Thank you for the hard work and your great customer service.
Working with Tammy Bass was very positive! We found her to be very flexible, extremely responsive to our many questions, and very knowledgeable about the very broad area of RI were were interested in.
Holly is a wonderful realtor for us. She answers all of our questions and goes above and beyond to find out needed information. We couldn't ask for a better experience. She is also a coach as I am not that computer literate and she helped us with all the a online processes. Thanks Holly
Tammy Bass is an outstanding real estate broker. With COVID, traditional sales strategies were not applicable and Tammy was very aware of the rapid-fire change in the real estate market as result of the pandemic. She has superior communication skills and a fantastic knowledge of the marketplace. She gave expert advice on when to list as well as the listing price. She answered all questions quickly and was prepared with honest feedback each step of the way!
Holly McLear was wonderful, start to finish! She listened to our requirements and was not pushy, which is in my opinion, the most important quality in a realtor. Because we were first time home buyers, we had a ton of questions and probably required more attention than other clients, but Holly took the time to explain everything in detail and provided us with good advice/recommendations for services we needed. It was very easy to get in touch with her and she was always quick to reply, whether through email, text, or cell. Holly made herself available and worked with our schedule to meet us at any time; nights, weekends, mornings, last minute, etc. We are so happy with our new home! I would recommend her to anyone looking for a house. Thanks Holly!
Tammy Bass was wonderful to work with! We trusted that she had our best interest in mind as she looked at properties for us. She was easy to communicate with and has an eye for detail! We selected to work with Tammy because we valued her knowledge and experience with buying from afar, as well as her understanding of the VA loan, local market, and our lifestyle. We trusted Tammy throughout the entire process of purchasing our home because she is straightforward, honest, and easy to communicate with. She kept us well informed and advocated for us whenever needed. We are incredibly grateful for the work Tammy put in to helping ensure we found a home we loved. We had a great first buying experience because of Tammy and highly recommend her!
Tom Rao was informative, patient, and experienced. We felt we could trust him throughout the process of selling our house and were impressed by his expertise and professionalism. Each step was thoughtfully planned out and executed with excellent attention to detail. He had a vast knowledge of the local real estate market and was able to provide thorough and helpful explanations throughout the process. Overall Tom Rao's professionalism was outstanding and he provided great communication. We felt he always had our best interest in mind during decision-making. His friendliness and easy-going nature was a source of reassurance. We got more than what we had hoped for - a fast turn-around at an excellent price. He helped us realize our dream of relocating to a warmer climate closer to our children and grandchildren!
We've worked with Holly in the past. She sold our home in Newport where we lived for 20 years. It is a historic property and not an easy to sell one. Holly is the hardest working agent that I have ever worked with, in selling our home, she came over with props, moved furniture, helped tidy the house before showings. We would still be in that house if it were not for her drive and motivation to find the right buyer. We valued her judgment and believed in her ability. She is always the first agent we consider when we need help, guidance in RE matters.
We appreciated Cathy’s low-key but helpful attitude. Other agents seemed rather predatory and/or phony (like a pushy salesperson) but Cathy was very down to earth. We really valued Cathy’s experience from having worked and lived in the area for a long time. We would work with Cathy again if given the opportunity. Highly recommend.
Emily Chappell was a pleasure to work with! She was a true professional and made sure she knew what we were looking for in our search. She listened to our wants and needs and showed us houses that fell within our outlined requirements and budget. House hunting in the past has been somewhat draining and stressful, but working with Emily made everything so much more enjoyable and exciting. She was great at setting up showings that fit our schedule and made us feel super safe and comfortable during Covid-19. Emily was always accessible and answered any and all questions that we had whether we reached out on weekdays or the weekends. I am so glad that we worked with Emily because she worked very hard to ensure we found a house that we really loved. The entire process from start to finish was seamless and Emily answered all of our questions with accuracy and in a timely manner. Emily knows the Rhode Island area and was a true professional. I would recommend her to anyone who is in need of Real Estate services!
Gordon was so helpful through the process of buying my new home. Extremely professional, knowledgeable and timely through the entire process. He also recommended great individuals in the industry to assist with other pieces of the purchase. Highly recommend Gordon- will definitely work with Gordon again if the situation arises.
Five years ago, Janie helped me purchase my condo which was the first piece of property I had purchased. Janie was the natural choice when we started looking for our next home almost two years ago. She helped guide us through multiple offers during this intense housing market. She is always helpful, responsive and knowledgable. I wouldn't consider using anyone else!
Cathy did an awesome job throughout the whole process. She made seeing houses a breeze - whenever we saw something online that we liked, she setup an appointment to see the houses really quickly and all we had to do was show up. She knew the area really well and gave her honest opinion on a lot of the properties - which helped us determine if we thought a house was over or under valued. Whenever we put in an offer on a house, we never felt pressured to offer anything we weren't comfortable with. Due to the hectic market, it was nice to not feel pressured to go way over asking or waive inspections/appraisals just to get a house. Everything with the negotiation process worked out nicely as we got the house for a great price and did not have to negotiate past our initial offer. Along with that, the seller wanted to expedite the closing process and Cathy handled everything she needed to quickly which allowed for the process to go smoothly.
Emily is very knowledgeable and helpful during the process of buying our home. We were 1st time home buyers and she put our nerves at ease throughout the process. She was easy to get in touch with when we needed many of our questions answered. I would no doubt recommend Emily for helping you buy and/or sell a home!
Matt, Is always professional and knows the market very well. He is great to work with and never pushes you. The best in Rhode Island
While vacationing in Middletown, we met Gordon King at an open house. Although we were not interested in that particular house once we viewed it, we were so impressed with Gordon that we contacted him to represent us a few days later when we saw a house that we liked. We credit Gordon King's professionalism and knowledge with attaining our dream house. We have found Gordon to be very approachable, friendly and giving of his time. He is extremely knowledgeable of the Newport area and is a wonderful story teller. In addition, he helped us find local services and checked on our house through the winter while we were still living in CT. We think of all the realtors we have worked with over the years, Gordon King is the best!
We have appreciated Kevan Campbell's knowledge of the local market, and his helpfulness. We will continue to use his services in the future
Elizabeth is one of the most knowledgeable and thorough agents we have ever worked with. She goes above and beyond for her clients and showed us just how much she will work for not only the best deal, but the fairest and smartest one possible. We highly recommend Liz for all your real estate needs.
Tammy Bass provides best is class real estate services. Her ability to navigate the local market and her undeniable reputation for excellence, made buying our new home in Jamestown a breeze. Thank you, Tammy!
I've worked with realtors every day of my life as a real estate attorney and as an owner of various properties. Never have I experienced one as fabulous as Elizabeth ! Professional, loyal, honest, and dedicated to me her client are only a few of the words that describe her I will work with her again soon in the future. She's made the experience enjoyable and smooth. I can't thank her enough.
Cathy Wicks took great care of us from our first meeting to the closing. Cathy met every challenge with a positive, supportive attitude- that we appreciated the most. In the end we sold our house for a great price thanks to Cathy.
Paul Tobak recently helped my family sell a unit at Bonniecrest. Paul was knowledgeable, helpful, and had a "whatever it takes" attitude which is just what a seller hopes for out of their agent. I would encourage anyone looking for an experienced and knowledgeable agent to reach out to Paul. He is a gem.
We absolutely love Holly McLear and if we were ever to sell our house again, we would have her as our sales agent. She was great! We would recommend her to anybody we know who is contemplating selling their property.
Caroline was instrumental in our successful purchase of a property In Newport during a very active market. Her in depth local knowledge helped us to negotiate the purchase price and sign a contract in record time. She was invaluable in helping us navigate the inspection and followed up on all subsequent issues. Her professionalism throughout the process was outstanding. Caroline's dedication, persistence and innovative ideas set her apart from the competition. We cannot recommend Caroline Richards highly enough if you are considering buying or selling a property in the area.
Caroline's advanced professional expertise in the financial market as well as her work ethic made the sale of my house simple. Her Marketing included excellent photos of the property - she made sure the house was photo ready prior to the photographer's arrival. She even recommended camera shots that highlighted special features - One photo was an aerial by drone that was demonstrative of proximity to harborfront and showcased the size and updates. The online listing was a wow! I Loved her Monday morning updates as well as her blog posts about my property. Caroline understands the lifestyle value of a house in Newport RI - this is a special place desired by many and home to few. I trust Caroline with the sale of my biggest investment and you should too!
I would highly recommend Kevan Campbell when purchasing a home. He was extremely helpful, friendly, knowledgable, and considerate. He took into consideration all of my asks and requirements and was extremely helpful in navigating the entire process. He is a kind person and his friendliness and genuine nature made him a pleasure to work with.
Our purchase was in Massachusetts & we worked with both Janie Aracil & Marlene Harrington. Marlene has represented us on other transactions & Janie has been opposite us on past transactions as well. These two women represent all the best qualities in real estate professionals. In addition to finding us what we wanted, we knew we were in good hands not having to worry about all the fine details in our first condominium purchase. Professionalism, responsiveness, & good senses of humor were just some of the ways in which they shepherded us through this transaction. We couldn't recommend them more highly.
Barbara is a great buyers' agent for buying property on Aquidneck Island because she knows the island and properties very well, and the nuances of the 3 towns and most of the neighborhoods. She has lived on the island most of her life and is well-connected with the other realtors and tradespeople. These connections are very useful, especially if you are moving from off the island to the island. What we enjoyed the most about working with Barbara, however, was how honest and candid she was. She is the first realtor we've worked with who has given her honest opinion of the appropriateness of the price that homes were listed for. Especially when one is coming from another place, to understand whether a home is overpriced or a good value is critical, and where an agent's experience with the market is key. It is so rare, however, for an agent to speak truthfully about that. Also, she was so patient with us even though we looked at so many houses and took a lot of her time. She always made us feel that she genuinely didn't mind waiting until we found just the right house. This was my 6th time buying a home and Barbara was the best agent I have ever worked with.
Matt has a great understanding of the local and macro markets. He really know how to deal with the many different personalities on either side of the deal and was super accessible through the whole process. Would love to work with Matt again in the future!
Marlene was professional, helpful and very knowledgeable handling the sale of our home. She had open houses and showings right away! We signed a purchase agreement within a month of the home being listed! Marlene had answers to all our questions and I would use her again and refer her to friends and relatives!
Tammy is great to work with. She's friendly and pleasant, knows the area well, and is always prompt responding to questions and concerns. I have already given her contact info to friends looking for rentals/purchases. If I was in the market again, I would go directly to her.
As an out of state investor, Gordon is an essential part of my purchasing process. His local market knowledge and resources, helps insure that I am set up for success both during the purchasing process, and throughout my ownership of the asset.
Diane was thorough, she showed care and interest in our search; she did not rush us. She advised, we listened and ultimately she was very helpful with our final decision.
Gordon was extremely communicative when signing the original Purchase and Sale Agreement. Closing was delayed due to delay in preparation of closing documents by Seller and Seller's Counsel, but Gordon went out of his way to assist in pushing things along as much as possible. As I am located out of state, it was also helpful to have someone with Gordon's level of dedication "on the ground" to keep us apprised as to developments. He even attended the closing in order to ensure that things were moving smoothly.
Gordon cared to learn all the workings of the property being sold. He always answered his phone when I called and was always on time with appointments. Friendly and helpful, never pushy. Understood the market.
Gordon was professional, extremely knowledgeable, efficient and very polite and friendly. I would certainly recommend Gordon to friends and family.
Cathy has helped me before on several purchases and sales. I wouldn't consider any other agent, and was happy to recommend her to m brother when he needed to sell his home. Cathy didn't disappoint- the property sold within 1 week. I find her to be knowledgable and intuitive, and very helpful in all aspects of real estate. Although I hope I don't move again, I know that I will call on her again if I ever need to buy and sell again. I didn't just find a good realtor, I made a good friend! Cathy assisted me in the purchase of my new home, then in the sale of my other home. She was understanding of my time needs in handling both moves. I am a widow and trying to be independent in all aspects of this move and Cathy respected my attempts at independence, but also had all the info I needed, and helped to get the moves done. From getting rid of furniture left in the new house, and helping to get rid of things from my old house, Cathy was very helpful. When I got scared about any aspect, Cathy had the answers to reassure me. Cathy was available at anytime I needed to talk to her. We shared many texts, emails, and calls. She was a friend I felt comfortable turning to, even when it was just to have a female friend to check in with!
Cathy Wicks is the consummate real estate professional. She knows her market well and is realistic and practical about representing buyers and sellers. She goes to great lengths and efforts to provide the best counseling and service to her clients. I would heartily recommend her to anyone looking to buy or sell their real estate. She is both quite personable and professional, as well as exceptional as a realtor.
Jeff did a great job selling this house, I don't think it could have gone ant smoother. Thanks Jeff !
Thanks again for all your help. We will raise a glass together this Summer, we promise.
Matt was very honest about what kind of buyer we needed. He said from the beginning it would need to be a buyer who was going to occupy the entire building for his own personal business and that is exactly who the buyer is.
she was honestly amazing and we couldn't have done it without her. 11/10. she was excellent. on top of everything and was always understanding and patient.
As I have said before, please use us for referrals. Anyone would appreciate the professionalism and ease with which you work. Thank you Jeff! Diane Rice
Jeff recently helped me find and close on my third investment property on Aquidneck Island. Continuing to use Jeff is a no brainer since he takes the time to understand buyer parameters, is excellent at contract negotiations and inspections, and can provide introductions to high quality lenders and service providers. I'm sure we'll do it again and I would recommend Jeff to anyone without reservation!
This was not our first transaction with Holly and we chose her because of our positive previous experience. And if I ever move back to Newport, I would only reach out to Holly McLear. That kind of loyalty to a broker comes as result of developing trust in the relationship and, I have to say, I trust Holly implicitly. She has earned that trust through her honesty and hard work in any transaction I've ever worked on with her, be it a sale or a rental. She works very hard, is very professional and knowledgable, and continually goes above and beyond for her clients. I am very grateful to Holly and honored to say that if the survey had any rating beyond excellent, Holly would get that from me! She's just the best!
Jeff Brooks has an incredible knowledge base when it comes to the Newport County Real Estate market and his track record throughout our business relationship is excellent. Definite recommendation!
I have worked with Kevan Campbell for years as both a property manager and a realtor and I couldn't imagine anybody better.
Tom Rao was always accessible and reliable during the process from our initial point of contact to signing a rental lease and beyond. Tom was flexible with accommodating our schedules and availability (out of state move), and always courteous and professional. Tom is personable and made the process straight forward. Would gladly recommend to others and plan to work with Tom again in the future!
We are so happy that we worked with Holly to find a home to suit our needs! Holly is knowledgeable, professional and was genuinely interested in helping us find the right home within our budget. She was very responsive throughout the home buying process, and consistently went above and beyond to help us, which was very appreciated as we live out of state. I would absolutely work with Holly again and would highly recommend her to others.
Cathy was so friendly, patient, and understanding throughout the entire process. She was very good at communicating what my options were at each step of the way and I am so thankful for her guidance for my first time home buying experience!! Definitely would recommend her!
Both Matt and Michele were wonderful! They were professional, accommodating, responsive and friendly. A wonderful experience all around!
Matt Hadfield was hands-down the best broker we have ever worked with! He was always professional, extremely knowledgeable, very responsive and we truly felt he had our best interest in mind. He wasn’t “salesy” at all, but very patient and consistently pleasant. There is no doubt we will use Matt again for our next home purchase/sale and we cannot recommend him highly enough. If you are looking to buy or sell a property in Newport, Matt Hadfield should definitely be your top choice.
Tom did an exceptional job and handling what was a long and protracted sale with seller occupancy beyond the closing date.
Hillary is a rockstar realtor! We've bought and sold all our homes through Hillary over the years! She's played a key role in our success with navigating RI's competitive real estate market. Hillary is professional as she is warm and caring and takes care of every detail throughout the process. We always look forward to working with her again and again!
Jeff has an outstanding of all facets of investing on Aquidneck Island. His knowledge of rental demand, locations, and appropriate pricing gave me complete confidence in making an offer, and his negotiation skill helped me realize maximum value in the purchase. This is my second transaction with Jeff and I have no doubt there will be many more.
Jeff was knowledgeable, patient, and very responsive and attentive to our needs throughout the home buying process. Would highly recommend working with Jeff to any home buyers.
I have worked with Cathy Wicks in the past and consulted her in the interim prior to deciding to sell this property. Because Cathy has extensive knowledge and experience in this particular area of Newport, I trusted her implicitly. Her track record and personal relationships with people who would be involved in the sale made it a no-brainer to have her represent me. Aside from my previous comments, Cathy represented me well as I live out of state and depended 100% on her efficacy and communication with all involved.
We met Gordon at an open house and he seemed very knowledgeable about the area. He also seemed trustworthy and had our best interests at heart. He was very patient with us while we searched the area for a second home. We would highly recommend Gordon King to anyone looking for a home in Newport.
We have purchased several properties over the past few years and Caroline is the best broker we have dealt with. She was thoughtful in working with us to identify properties that did or did not meet our search criteria. Once we identified a property she was helpful in negotiations and had a clear vision from the onset about what the right price would be for the property. She helped us get the home under agreement at a price we felt comfortable with and went above and beyond to help accomodate a smooth closing process. We would definitely work with her again or recommend her to others
Matt Hadfield knows real estate in Newport; that was important to us. He was discreet when we did not want our neighbors to know we were selling. He did a comparison of recent sales and came up with an asking price that we wanted. Finally, he got us $2,000 over the asking price. We really appreciated that performance.
Jeff Brooks took the time to set up a conference to ensure that he understood our needs and that we would be a good fit working together. Jeff Brooks was amazing from start to finish with the purchase of our home! He is very knowledgeable, and when asked about certain criteria’s he would go into depth explanation to make sure I was comfortable and understood the laws/agreement of the transaction. Jeff had a fantastic communication, not only with myself, but with the sellers realtor and the mortgage company. And trust me the sellers realtor was not amazing like Jeff. Jeff knew the guidelines and held the sellers to the expectations. Jeff would give me updates before I even remembered to follow up with him. Because of his knowledge and experience when it came to negotiating he truly had our best interest in heart; even when we were scared to negotiate a little lower, he knew what was best for us before we knew it. From the beginning he negotiated the price down based on facts of the home in the market, and after our home inspection he made sure to go back and have negotiations done again based off of the reports. It was outstanding how much money he saved us! Jeff always made us feel like we could reach out no matter the time or day or how silly the question was. He was even clear when we were searching for a home that he had a scheduled vacation (just so we had advance notice). When the time came he was on vacation and said for us not to worry because he was still going to be putting in office hours so if we needed him do not hesitate to reach out. Jeff Brooks went above and beyond and I have been highly recommending him to my friends families and coworkers!
Both Leslie Hogan and Tammy Bass represent the best of what a realtor can and should be: top notch professionalism, calming influence during what is an inherently a stressful process, respectful guidance providing insight and answers to questions and concerns, informed pricing strategies, phenomenal negotiators on both buying and selling side, and a connection to a network of similarly talented realtors who bring vetted buyers to the table enabling a successful sale in a short time frame. They are simply the best.
I was referred by my attorney and it wound up being an awesome decision. Jeff made it so easy and painless to sell this house. It was tougher because it was an older house, but he did an amazing job. I am so happy with Jeff. He kept me informed every step of the way and really was amazing. As an out of state client, he handled everything and worked closely with my attorney with whatever was necessary and really made it an easy transaction. I am so thankful for his guidance and EXTENSIVE knowledge and experience, and I would work with him again in a heart beat.
He was extremely knowledgeable and involved with inspections and banking inquiries. Tom kept me informed throughout the entire process. We got a quick sale. Tom also brokered other properties connected with this transaction. They aslo went as smooth as it could have gone. Dealing with Tom was a pleasure. He is respectful and true professional. I'd certainly deal with him again.
Gordon was incredibly responsive and attentive throughout the entire process. He was a real pleasure to work with. We feel like we have a solid contact and support as we transition to becoming landlords in the Newport area. We love Gordon!
Holly McLear is extremely professional and very easy to work with. She made both my husband and I very comfortable when purchasing a home which we looked long and hard for. Holly continually reached out to us, pointing out many homes which she felt fit our requirements until one finally presented itself. I strongly recommend Holly to assist in either buying or selling your home
Jeff Brooks is great and does an awesome job when it comes to brokering a deal. He is a great asset to your team!
Tammy is the ultimate professional. She truly is a gem. We highly recommend her to all our friends, family, and colleagues.
Tom Roa is an exceptionally talented real estate agent. I would highly recommend his services to friends and family. He is very efficient and has a vast knowledge base.
Caroline Richards handled our desire for a relatively fast result beautifully. I believe that she has a strong professional command of the market in the greater Newport area, and that she also knows how to connect with brokers on the other side of the transaction. She believes, as Benjamin Franklin did, that good transactions benefit both parties. This is an important ingredient for being in business for a long time, and slowly growing a list of highly satisfied clients.
Terrific Job on locating a dock-condo for me!
Diane was very attentive and quick to respond to all my questions and concerns Diane made it look easy! She was great to work with from start to finish!
Leslie had great local knowledge of landscapers, builders, and permit experts. We were buying a property to build on, and being from out of state, needed her advice and referrals to make a good decision.
Selling our parent's home was an emotional time and Tammy Bass was the perfect match for our family. She is kind, understanding and came prepared to our first meeting ready to answer any question we had. The recommendations made were insightful and allowed us to sell the property at a premium. Every phone call, text, email was answered promptly and professionally. I would recommend Tammy Bass 100% and thank the Hogan team for shepherding us through the process of selling our parent's home.
Cathy kept us well informed throughout the process. She was very diligent in a caring way regarding her approach to marketing the condo. We appreciated her timely correspondence and updates as the process moved along. I would recommend her to anyone looking to sell or buy real estate. Area knowledgeable, technically savvy and just overall a very caring person.
Gordon King is the quintessential broker in my experience, . His selfless commitment to finding the right deal and executing it to the maximum benefit for the client, is truly outstanding. Gordon is a straight-up businessman, with a keen sense and thoughtful tact. Knowledgeable, experienced, intuitive, intelligent, invested, and Honorable, Gordon has done 3 deals for me. Two purchases and one sale. All 3 were outstanding successes. The most recent was complicated and involved a 1031 exchange. Gordon knows the ropes and followed through with precision and excellence on every aspect of the transaction. His commitment to his client is unsurpassed, working all hours of the day and night to close the deal. I can't say enough about this fine gentleman, professional broker and confidant. Thank You Gordon King! JJ Supple // President 401 Realty Associates, LLC
Great customer service and very responsive. Great worker all around and makes the job get done!
Elizabeth was a great communicator and was always available to answer questions and guide us over the finish line! Elizabeth is the best! She really supported us in making the best choice for our rental and helped us find the perfect place
Holly was such a pleasure to work with. She is so knowledgable and accomplished but put no pressure on us to accept anything but the offer we wanted. She was responsive and patient when demands from prospective buyer got challenging. I would recommend (and have) Holly without reservation to friends or family and will contract with her again in any future real estate transactions we may enter into. As a result of our professional relationship, I feel she has become a friend. Even though the closing has come and gone, she keeps in touch to see how we are doing.
Cathy Wicks has been helping us to buy, rent and sale properties in Rhode Island for the last 4 years. She just helped us to sell a commercial unit and we are on the process of buying a residential one. She is always available, a world of knowledge, attempt to details, professional, trustworthy, flexible, dedicated and sometimes with a touch of humor. She makes the process of selling, buying and renting seems easy. We would recommend Cathy to anyone looking for a Real Estate agent.
I have used Matt Hadfield several times now and always very happy with the attention to detail and the knowledge of the local market. I have both purchased and sold homes with Matt and always very satisfied. All the details are handled so issues don't arise.
I have no opinion about Hogan Associates/Christie's International Real Estate. However, we were thoroughly impressed with our realtor, Tammy Bass. She was outstanding in every way. I would recommend her to anyone in a heartbeat. She was a consummate professional and helped us sell our home with very minimal stress. Thank you Tammy!
Matt Hadfiled was an amazing help selling my dad's house after he passed away. He met with us and did a very thorough comp evaluation which he presented to us in an easily understandable way to help us pick a selling price. Matt gave us great advice across the board and the house sold over the asking price in a matter of days. Matt then stayed focused all the way to closing, keeping us advised and taking care of lots of details for us which saved us much time and effort. I have used many realtors in the past and Matt was by far the best I've ever used.
Retaining the help and guidance of Schuyler Horton of Hogan Associates was precisely what we needed as we approached a major turning point in our lives, the sale of our Portsmouth home of forty years. His market savvy, communication skills and joyful optimism helped guide us through this sometimes daunting process. He began by working with us to craft a strategically competitive asking price. He helped us thoughtfully reduce the clutter of our everyday lives and make some basic improvements both inside and out to ultimately show the house at its very best. He masterfully prepared and presented our home over a busy four days of showings and open houses and on the fifth day we had in hand seven attractive offers above asking price. He then skillfully helped us resolve any contingencies required by the winning buyers to close the sale. We are without question grateful for his friendship and guidance and highly recommend him to anyone looking for expertise in today’s real estate market.
Know that there are many families that we grew up with that were born and raised in Newport before it became a national tourist attraction. It was a much different place years ago with being very family oriented and just plain simple yet safe living. Only we have those great long time memories, so when selling a home for a true "Newporter" you must have understanding that it is not just about the sale. Matt and Michele at Hogan Associates did a great job!
Our overall experience with Matt and Hogan Associates was excellent. Matt understood what we wanted, was patient, knowledgeable, and professional. We would highly recommend him.
We would highly recommend working with Leslie. She has great local market knowledge, and she is extremely professional. Leslie is a good listener and was very patient with our family. We looked for a summer home in Newport with Leslie's help for over 5 years before finding the right place. She knew what we were looking for, understood our price parameters and gave us great guidance. Leslie stuck with us until we found the right home and then she was extremely helpful through the inspection and closing process. We always felt as though she had our best interests at heart and appreciated that.
She was wonderful I couldn't ask for more. Anything Michele didn't know she researched and found out for me.
Barbra O'Reilly was always in tune with our needs for this sale. She is professional and trustworthy. We put the house on the market for a month, because we had renters moving in the following week, and didn't want them disrupted by showings. Barbara did everything we needed in a small amount of time; photos, listing, open house, marketing...She was respectful to our wishes and to our renters at all times. Within days, we had multiple offers over asking price, and went under contract within a week of listing. Barbra O'Reilly is the best realtor we have ever worked with and we highly recommend her to all! Karen & Barry Sherman
I would highly recommend that anyone considering selling a home to hire Kevin Campbell as your broker. Kevan always returned calls promptly and discussed sale progress and potential options with me when needed. His work on this sale immensely reduced any anxiety I had. Very nice and capable guy to deal with! Offer came within 24 hours. Sale proceeded quickly under Kevan's guidance. Who could ask for more?
Meredith helped us purchase our home in North Kingstown, RI in March 2022. She was amazing to work with as a real estate agent! She was super friendly. very knowledgeable about the area, and extremely responsive to our every question. I would highly recommend Meredith to anyone!!!
Chris was very helpful and knowledgeable in all aspects of the purchase of my condo. All aspects of the sale went smoothly. I was kept informed at every step.
Caroline Richards has great contacts and connections. Four showings before listing. Sold our house before marketing. Very helpful and patient with every step along the way. I would definitely recommend to friends and family.
Tom did a great job helping us by a multi-family in Newport, and then lease the units.
Cathy is an amazing agent and friend. She went from being a buyer agent, to a leasing agent, to a sellers agent in a 10-year period. Anytime in between she always stayed in contact and helped with anything requested and expected nothing but a smile and a thank you. Truly a class-act!
Great Real Estate agent and person!! always goes the extra mile to represent you well; Tammy was caring and honest about the whole process, very knowledgeable of the area and always very profesional! thank you very much for making the sale happen Highly recommend.
I can highly recommend Leslie Hogan to help you find a home to make you happy. I just closed on a home in Middletown, Rhode Island thanks, largely, to Leslie's expertise. I returned to the USA after living in Europe for 30 years so I needed guidance. Leslie guided my search in several important ways. Leslie spent a lot of time to understand my priorities and wishes about my next home. She responded immediately with solid advice to my many questions in different phases of the process. I appreciated that she helped me set realistic expectations about my search goals. Leslie also demonstrated top notch skills in negotiation of the final terms of the sale to make it a win-win process for the buyer and the seller. The inspections were very thorough with Leslie playing an active role in their successful completion. In summary, I thank Leslie for her commitment and trustworthiness during my search.
Holly is an extraordinary broker. She is right on top of things in presenting and going after a property you want, but she never pressures you At first, I kept redefining what sort of home I was looking for, and she was patient, offering helpful feedback. She helped me understand the pros and cons of each property I looked at; I greatly appreciated her honesty and advice. With Holly's help, I scored the exact property I wanted: she made sure to get there first. (There were five other buyers right behind hoping I would walk away.) I could not be happier with my new vacation home. I had been using a different broker originally who gave me very little attention. I was telling a friend about my hunt, and he said, You must use Holly; she will work with you until you find exactly what you want. Best real estate advice I ever received!
Marty was the absolute best. Smart, responsive, proactive and creative. I would not have gotten into my perfect dream home without her help.
Thank you so very, very much for all the hard work you put into getting my house ready to put on the market. You organized everything so quickly and had great information to give those who came to your open house. Thank you so much for everything, and for the treat to lunch at the Clarke Cooke House - which was so unexpected. As Mary said, Mike’s classy and I could not agree more — It was lucky for our family when Tim met Mike Hill. So again, thank you.
As buyers, we were very specific about exactly what we wanted from our next home and it took us a while to find the perfect spot. Chris was really patient, listened attentively to what we liked and didn't like with each property and ultimately found us a home that hit every single item on our list! Throughout the buying process, Chris gave us great support and guidance. Overall, we had a fantastic experience and would recommend Chris to anyone looking to buy a home.
I can't even begin to express how happy we are that we selected Holly as our realtor to sell our Newport, RI condo. We "interviewed" three different realtors but ended up selecting Holly. In addition to liking Holly when we met her, our decision was largely driven by how impressed we were with a then-current listing of hers that I'd found on Zillow. (That may sound like an unusual selection-criterion, but - being in the apartment rental business - my husband and I firmly believe that a listing has to stand out to attract the widest possible audience.) Holly did not disappoint - the listing she created for our unit was incredibly inviting! But, as we learned along the way, Holly's attention to details did not stop at creating a terrific listing. She was extremely attentive to and knowledgeable about every step of the process, from listing to closing. In addition, she was extremely accessible and easy to communicate with. All in all, we highly recommend working with Holly!
I had two different from across the street who had each interviewed multiple agents and chose to work with Gordon. I respect both friends and chose Gordon on their recommendation. It was such a pleasure working with Gordon...so pleasant, knowledgeable and reassuring. I have sold houses in the past and Gordon showed me how it should be done...organized and considerate of my issues. He was always available through texting since I am hearing impaired and was always on time...just a joy to talk to and work with. In addition to my other comments, Gordon proved once again that experience and being professional make all the difference. Yes, if I every return to RI, I would request Gordon's help in finding the right house. Gordon was organized and kept me up-to-date. You were smart to add Gordon King to your sales team.
Tammy is the best! Very knowledgeable of the area and local resources, super responsive, and overall so great to work with (making a life experience that is usually stressful as easy as possible.) I would recommend Tammy to everyone!
Caroline did an excellent job representing us, preparing our properties for sale, dealing with tenants etc Caroline work along with Gordon King, the agent who first called us. Gordon is another excellent agent. My wife and I were thoroughly satisfied with Caroline, we have already referred someone else to her. Caroline was easy to deal with, she was approachable and she had an excellent understanding of our concerns.
To: Leslie Hogan I want to let you know what an amazing job Emily Chappell did for us. We had a signed agreement with a closing date of July 7 and then the owner died without a Will! So the closing only took place a week or so ago, We were buying this house to rent to a family member. Emily showed us appropriate properties, advised us wisely and then was in constant contact with us between July and October, and was a delight to work with. She is real asset to your company. You recommended that we work with her, so I thank you for that. I talked to her so often that I actually miss her! Thanks again for employing and recommending a real gem!
This was my first experience selling a property, so getting assistance with the listing and sale was critical to me. I was initially impressed with Holly McLear's knowledge of the local market. She took the time to answer my family's questions and learn about our goals with the sale. She came prepared with a detailed analysis of the property and a proposed asking price backed by recent sales of similar properties. Holly was fantastic walking me through the process, answering my questions, and doing the leg-work needed to make the sale go as smoothly as it did. I don't believe I could have sold the property as quickly or for the price my family received without her help. Choosing Holly McLear was the best choice I made when selling my property. I look forward to some day doing business with her and Hogan Associates again.
Jeff Brooks is an outstanding realtor who made our first home buying experience in Middletown, Rhode Island truly exceptional. His knowledge of the local market was invaluable, guiding us with insightful information and ensuring we made informed decisions. Jeff's caring and patient approach stood out; he never pressured us and waited patiently until we found the perfect property. Jeff's dedication to understanding our needs and preferences went above and beyond. He took the time to explain every step of the process, making us feel confident and supported. His expertise and genuine concern for our satisfaction truly set him apart. If you're looking for a realtor who combines professionalism with a personal touch, Jeff Brooks is the one to trust.
Gordon was an attentive broker who made himself available whenever we needed him. He gave thoughtful considerations for all aspects of the sale throughout the process; from initial offer to the home inspection to the closing. Gordon's recommendations were spot on each time. It was a comfort to know he was on our side. We would highly recommend Gordon for all your real estate needs. ~ Paul and Julie Penner
