Chris Gannon, Stonybrook Realty
I had a wonderful experience using Stonybrook Realty to find my first home. Christopher Gannon was a pleasure to work with. He was able to find the perfect place for me. I felt he did a great job shopping around for different properties that fit not only my needs but my wants. Since this was my first time buying a home, the professionals that Christopher and Stonybrook recommended to help me through this process were very proficient, helpful, and accessible. I had a great experience using Stonybrook Realty and would not hesitate to recommend them.

Stacie Peterson, Stonybrook Realty
“Stacie was such a pleasure to work with when we purchased our recent home in the Green Pond area. We looked at several homes and she never pushed us to lean one way or another but was helpful with her feedback when we asked. She was also always able to make herself available when we wanted to see something in a hurry. 20 years in the business speaks volumes and I would highly recommend her!”

Justin Donnarumma, Stonybrook Realty
“My wife and I had the pleasure of working with Justin Donnarumma for the sale of our 2 bedroom condo in Clifton. Selling a home is never easy, especially if you live out of state like we do. Justin put our mind at ease while managing open houses, showings, and offers while we were living over 2500 miles away. He was extremely responsive, knowledgeable, and professional throughout the entire process. Justin was able to guide us through a number of complicated decisions when it came to accepting a final offer and moving through the closing process. It was a pleasure working with Justin and we would highly recommend him!”

Michelle Fotiadis, Stonybrook Realty
Michelle is truly magnificent! We were first-timers wasting time fumbling around the market before Michelle was recommended to us. There’s nothing easy about buying in the current market. Michelle waded tirelessly through the river of homes that were vanishing as fast as they were appearing. Her knowledge is very impressive. Her dedication and hard work are even more impressive. When we had a clear shot at the right home Michelle’s advice on bidding won us a home that we love at a great price. Michelle is supported by a great team at Stonybrook Realty. It’s not an exaggeration to say that we never would’ve made out so well, or even at all, without Michelle to guide us!

Bill MacFarland, Stonybrook Realty
“Bill was beyond helpful as I moved to a new state in the middle of a pandemic! The whole buying process from looking to settlement was super easy and Bill ensured I understood my options and kept me fully informed throughout. He worked 110% for my benefit through the whole process and now I have a beautiful new home that I can’t wait to spend many years in! I completely recommend Bill, there honestly weren’t enough stars, and know that anyone who works with him will be equally impressed by his professionalism and client focus!”

Justin Donnarumma, Stonybrook Realty
“Working with Justin Donnarumma was a fantastic experience. He is proactive, diligent, attentive to detail, incredibly responsive and hugely knowledgeable of the market & pricing. As a result of Justin’s phenomenal work I was able to get units in my multi family property turned and ready for new tenants extremely fast and multiple high quality applications in just a few days at an updated market rate. I expect to be a repeat customer and work with Justin again in the future.”

Bernie Cicirelli, Stonybrook Realty

Michelle Kooger, Stonybrook Realty
“I couldn’t recommend Michelle Kooger more! We were first time home buyers and needed a lot of hand holding. Michelle was amazing and so responsive anytime we had questions. She quickly got a sense of what we were looking for and was willing to show us as many properties as we needed to see until we found our dream home. Once our offer was accepted, Michelle had the resources to recommend the best home inspectors and it was a straight forward process through closing. At the end, my fiancé and I felt very confident in our purchase and couldn’t be happier. If you’re serious about finding the perfect home and you’re nervous like we were, contact Michelle you will not be disappointed!”

He spent a lot of time with us understanding what would be important to us and at each showing pointed out a lot of things that we would not have caught that would affect our time in the house. Cnce we decided on a home, Bob went to work getting us the best conditions and price. The entire experience was superb. We have a broker and friend for life.”

Donna Chingery, Stonybrook Realty
“Donna was the best agent we could’ve found! We were trying to make a purchase with a VA loan during a pandemic and a sellers market. She managed to understand our tastes and had extensive knowledge of the area. Donna always replied within minutes and worked around our schedules. Many times when we came across a house at 7PM and Donna managed to get us a viewing the next day, sometimes even THE SAME DAY(impressive!) THANK YOU Donna! If it wasn’t for you and your dedication, we wouldn’t have been able to find our amazing home!”

Karen Martino, Stonybrook Realty
“Karen is very knowledgeable about the market she services. She guided us on what price point to list our home to sell in the time that we needed to to be able to purchase our new home. With Karen’s advice we received multiple offers, went under contract in less than 2 weeks, and sold for $9,000 over list price! Karen is a wonderful realtor and genuinely cares for her clients. I would recommend her to anyone looking for a realtor.”

Ricardo Panchoo, Stonybrook Realty
Wow! Ricardo was beyond what we would have expected from a real estate agent. Not only do you get an agent who will coordinate homes to view, but you also get an education. He explained the different things to be on the lookout for, the pros and cons of the home, and what things you may want or need to change. When he showed us the house we purchased, he instantly knew it was the one for us, and said “welcome home” upon entering. He also has a great network of attorneys, inspectors, and mortgage loan officers to connect you with. Very friendly, professional, and informative. Highly recommended!

Bernie Cicirelli, Stonybrook Realty
“We recently purchased our first home and used Bernie Cicirelli as our real estate agent. We cannot recommend him enough. Bernie went above and beyond to make sure we got the house of our dreams at the right price. He worked day and night to make this happen. Every morning he would send us houses that matched our criteria and was always available to set up showings. Even in the difficult housing market with houses selling left and right, Bernie was able to set up prompt showings and coach us through the process. We learned so much about real estate and what to look for in a house along the way. Bernie set up regular strategy meetings with us and helped us put together the strongest offer we could. Bernie is the funniest, kindest man around and tr…

Karen Martino, Stonybrook Realty
“I will tell you from the bottom of my heart, there is no better agent hands down. My husband and I were extremely difficult clients. Karen spent over a year with us showing us everything under the moon, working tirelessly to help us figure out where we belonged. She knew everything about real estate and all the different scenarios we came across. She never once showed frustration, she was always patient. She ALWAYS answered my calls. She was an excellent negotiator and the kind of smart, strategic woman you absolutely want on your team. She is extremely special and if I could give her 100 stars, I would.”

Larry Rock, Stonybrook Realty
“Larry helped us find an apartment in a pinch and purchase our first home. He was available the same day we called him, making our speedy transition that much easier when we were renting. Upon buying a home, his sense of urgency and knowledge of building and structural expertise helped us tremendously in determining what may/may not be a good for us, resulting in the purchase of our first home. He was so involved in the process we referred to him as “Uncle Larry” to our kids. Use him!!!”

Donna made what could have been an arduous and trying time, straightforward and painless. We really appreciated her honesty, calm demeanor, knowledge, and her ‘no pressure’ way of handling the process. My husband and I would absolutely without hesitation recommend Donna to our friends and family.”

Lindsay Symonds, Stonybrook Realty
“It’s hard to put into words all that we have gained over the years with Lindsay. If you want a realtor that is knowledgeable, ethical and does right by you… look no further! We met Lindsay by chance when we were house hunting 3 years ago, and she made such an impression on us, that she became more than our realtor, not only did she find us our perfect home, but became someone you enjoy a cup of coffee and a good conversation with. It’s no surprise that after we received news about relocating we sought her out to sell our home! We worked so hard on our house for 3 years and we didn’t trust anyone else to sell it. She never pressured us into accepting an offer, was patient with us as we waited for the right one, and always pointed out information that an inexperienced seller would miss. She’s sweet and kind, thoughtful and intelligent, and a real gem in a world of realtors. We were so lucky to have crossed paths with her, and if we ever come back to Jersey, we will be seeking her expertise once again. “

Ricardo Panchoo, Stonybrook Realty
“Ricardo’s ability to listen and gather information is one of the reasons why I wanted to work with him. Staying within budget was my number one priority, which meant moving about 40 minutes away from my current location. He showed me different homes and educated me on the town, nearby towns and local attractions. He helped me find my home within 2 months! He connected me with a loan officer, attorney, and inspector. You’re not just getting a realtor when you work with Ricardo, you’re getting an entire network of professional and knowledgeable people to help you along the way. Truly thankful for all his hardwork and dedication to helping me close in 45 days.”
