Client Reviews

  • Lila and Rob, Stone Ridge

    MJ was a rock for us when we were buying our first home outside of NYC. She brought us to several promising properties and was a true ally to us as newbies to home ownership and the Hudson Valley area more generally. We ended up purchasing a home (that we love!) with her as our buyer’s agent. Our closing was delayed quite a bit due to some outstanding permitting issues, and MJ was there for us the whole way—always patient and proactive, and even helped come up with some creative solutions that helped us when we felt like we were reaching the end of our rope. Her local network of inspectors, attorneys, and other professionals were reliable and trustworthy. Would definitely work with her again, and have been recommending her to all our friends who visit and now want to move here too :)

  • Michele, Stone ridge

    MJ was the best realtor that my partner and I could have asked for, especially being first time homebuyers and brand new to the area! […] Throughout the sale, we felt informed and advocated for, with MJ going out of her way on several occasions to get things done behind the scenes. She's continued to be a resource for us now that we've settled in, which we didn't expect and appreciate so much. We will 100% be working with her again when looking to sell or purchase in the area in the future!

  • Taylor + Kathryn, shokan

    “I cannot say enough about how amazing MJ was as a realtor. Within moments of our first house tour with her, I said “this is exactly what we needed in a realtor.” […] She helped us think about what kind of amenities we would be near and how we might build community wherever we ended up. […] I would absolutely recommend MJ, especially for first time homebuyers and those that are new to the region - she won’t let you down!

  • Cheryl, stone ridge

    “MJ was awesome to work with during the whole process of purchasing our home! She was accessible and very knowledgeable of the process and of the area. We would absolutely work with her again if purchasing/selling in the future. Highly recommend you work with her if you’re looking for a home in the Hudson Valley!”

  • Jackie + Mark, Hudson

    “MJ helped us find a home in Hudson coming from Brooklyn and offered a huge depth of knowledge about everything from the home buying process to how to maintain a home out in the country, with recommendations for service providers and a keen attention to details that we absolutely would have otherwise missed while we were looking at houses. She was super friendly, thoughtful, and a really valuable resource for us—would highly recommend if you're thinking of buying upstate!”

  • Kat + Jojo, Hunter

    “MJ was the best real estate agent we could have hoped for. She found our dream home and helped us close on it in record time. MJ was incredibly transparent, proactive and knowledgeable. We had a true partner throughout the entire home buying process – she took the time to help us understand what we even wanted/valued in our home and taught us what to look out for when purchasing home. We cannot recommend her enough!”

  • Tom + Mark, Kingston

    “Working with MJ was a flawless experience from first meeting till closure. Highly motivated, proactive, transparent, trustworthy and results driven. Removed the worry and stress from a challenging long term renovation with a result which exceeded expectations.”

  • Liz + pete, red hook

    “We’ve had a fair amount of experience with realtors in a couple different states, and MJ is top tier in the field. She is both an outstanding human and an extremely effective and smart professional. She is at your side (patiently spent a lot of time with us!!), and on your side (a super client advocate!) every step of the way. Now that I’m upstate, I also see that she’s a great place-maker and an important community member here. Highly recommend working with MJ”

  • Elizabeth, Marbletown

    “MJ is an amazing realtor. We had a great experience selling our home with MJ. Honestly, can’t say enough how much we appreciated her help, attention and the hard work she put into helping us sell our home. Recommend 100%+.”

  • Elle, tivoli

    “I cannot say enough good things about working with MJ. She is incredibly smart, incisive, and thoughtful in her approach. We’ve now bought a house, sold that house, and purchased another house with her over the past several years and there is no one else I would call! You truly could not be in better hands with her.”

  • Corey, clinton corners

    “Thanks again for everything—such a smooth process, and we can’t wait to make it our own. You’ve been so helpful through everything, we so appreciate all your guidance!!”

  • Evan + dunia, Saugerties

    “Closing was super smooth. thanks for everything, MJ, you’ve made this process super easy, informative, and fun.”

  • zin, millbrook

    “truly can’t thank you enough for making the process so seamless and working within our restrictions both being out of state AND being new parents during our visit. You have been such a joy to work with AND we have some family back home now looking to buy upstate too so we will be sending them your way!”

  • zac, canaan

    “Thank you so much for your patience, guidance and adaptability; we couldn't have made it through [our home sale] without you. Bless you.”

HANNAH CRISAFULLI, TRANSACTION ADMINISTRATOR AND LICENSED SHOWING ASSISTANT

I made my move to upstate New York in 2019, trading in the foothills of the Pocono Mountains for the dreamy Hudson Valley. I found myself working with various arts and education organizations in the heart of Kingston. I quickly fell in love with the community and wanted to immerse myself in it as much as possible. That’s where MJ came in.

She took me under her wing and showed me everything that the hudson valley and catskills has to offer, all while giving me the opportunity to grow as a real estate professional. After working as her assistant for half a year, I got my real estate salesperson license, which has allowed me to take on even more as mj’s assistant.
