Even though we did not have a specific timeline to buy, Arlena worked with us in a pressure free way and gave us the space and time to figure out what we wanted to do. We never felt pressured or in a hurry, and it made the experience pleasant from the jump. She was easy to work with and really helped us get to know the area and the professionals we needed through the buying process and beyond. We found a great home and couldn't be happier!

As first-time homebuyers, we needed an agent that could help us navigate the process at every turn — and Arlena was exactly that. She was always cool, calm, and collected, even when things got tricky with the sellers. She answered all our emails quickly and insightfully along the way. Her great knowledge of the Hudson Valley market — not to mention places to eat and drink in the area — was a huge benefit. We're so glad we worked with Arlena! -Tom & Danny

She confidently guided me through the purchasing process from beginning to end. Now being s... read more

We couldn’t be happier with our experience working with Arlena! As first-time homebuyers coming from Brooklyn to upstate New York, we had so much to learn, but Arlena made the entire process smooth, and enjoyable. What really stood out was how much Arlena truly understands what it’s like to buy property upstate. Her own journey from NYC to the Catskills gave her a unique understanding of what we were looking for in a home and a community. She’s not just selling houses—she’s helping people build a lifestyle. Her curated appro... read more
