Testimonials

Doug Bailey
"It is with great pleasure and appreciation that I take this opportunity to commend your office, and most especially, your associate, JodiAnn Garone, in the recent sale of my parents? home in Manalapan, NJ.

Faced with the unexpected passing of my mother last summer, I was suddenly confronted with the daunting task of settling her affairs, and regrettably, placing the home I had known since childhood on the market for sale.

Shortly thereafter, perhaps with a little help from above, I had the fortuitous chance of meeting JodiAnn, my mother?s neighbor, and made the correct choice in placing my trust in her expertise to guide me through the selling process.

I can say without reservation that what I had initially assumed would be a dreadful experience, filled with unexpected setbacks and pitfalls, was instead remarkably easy and pain-free. JodiAnn?s instincts for market trends facilitated the process of listing to closing without a hitch or hiccup.

JodiAnn?s candor, stemming from an obvious and deep respect for her clients, was most refreshing. She assisted me in making an honest assessment of the house vis-?-vis the current market, enabling me to decisions along the way that led to a sale in reasonable time at a realistic price.

JodiAnn?s skill attracted several buyers in a challenging market; her wise advice helped me choose the buyer best suited for a smooth closing.

I am confident that the new owners, about to embark on raising a family in their new home, will experience the same joy it had provided my family for so many years.

Thank you JodiAnn.

Sincerely,
Doug Bailey

"Silvana was amazing as she helped us very confused first time buyers, like we were million dollar clients. I have already referred her to others that I know are in the market for a property. Her dedication to ensure our satisfaction stands out as one of her best qualities, along with her patience. Her contacts in the Real Estate field proved pivotal to our securing our perfect home. ...

Doug Dreger and Lori Meyer
"Dear Joe and Bridgett,
We are writing to thank you for the superb job that you both did helping us purchase our beautiful new home in Woodbridge in December 2010. Lori and I simply could not be more pleased with all the help and advice you were able to provide, especially when the negotiations and closing took a few unexpected
turns. When Joe first met us at the property to show us the home, he very clearly explained that you were also the listing agent. At first, we weren?t sure it would
be beneficial to use the listing agent as our buying agent in a ?disclosed dual agent? scenario. Common sense told us that finding our own, separate, buying
agent would eliminate any conflict of interest.
However, we had a good feeling about working and speaking with you both, and we have absolutely no regrets. You both handled yourselves with the
utmost professionalism and your expertise was appreciated. You were able to help us by:
● Showing us the home on multiple occasions;
● Recommending an excellent home inspector, and joining us for the inspection itself;
● Helping us to negotiate a very favorable price reduction;
● Intervening when a problem with the home appraisal caused a wrinkle with our lender;
● And even working with the seller to secure some additional amenities on closing day At times, when we had difficulty getting a quick response from our lender and attorney, we knew we could rely on you both to take action and handle anything we needed. I honestly don?t know whether we could have closed on
this home purchase without you both being so helpful and responsive. We?re just thrilled with the house, and we recommend you highly to any friends or family members that are in the market to buy or sell.
Many thanks,
Doug Dreger and Lori Meyer"

Dr. Libo
"Dearest Silvana,
Words cannot express how grateful we are to you. From the first time I spoke to you, I was truly amazed at how sweet, understanding, genuine & helpful you are. You truly went above and beyond your job not only did you help us find a dream home (our first house), you were even instrumental in helping me find a job (how unbelievable is that?!). But you didn't stop there (though most people in your profession would) you were there for us to support, answer a multitude of questions, offer suggestions... you treated us as friends, as people you cared about. As for us we feel that we have gained so much! (All because of that fateful phone call I made to you just a couple of months ago). Finding this home, my job, being close to my sister - you have performed a miracle! And the icing on the cake is that we found a wonderful friend in you! So, THANK YOU for it all from the bottom of our hearts! And we want you to know that we are there for you too if you need us. You are truly a gem, one of a kind! Love, Dr. Libo 2/15/11

Kelly & Maria Kuylen
"Dear Silvana,

We just wanted to thank you so much for all you did in helping us purchase our new home, located in Manalapan New Jersey.

We were not the easiest clients to work with because we were not 100% sure of what we wanted in a new home, nor were we sure of which town to live in.
You were always positive and eager to show us homes in so many different areas, Colts Neck, Holmdel, Marlboro, Middletown, and Manalapan, just to name a few. Your patience with us coupled with your vast knowledge about the housing market, enabled us to purchase our dream home within our pricing budget. We can't tell you how much we appreciate all of your hard work, which was evident throughout the process.

You always stated you were just "doing your job", but you picked-up on things we would never have thought about and taught us things we never knew. We've dealt with alot of Realtors before and never have met anyone as personable, accommodating, reliable, dedicated and trustworthy as yourself.

The best thing we can say about the outstanding job you did for us is that we would, and already have, recommend you to people we know.

Thank you again for everything. We hope to keep in touch.

Sincerely,
Kelly & Maria Kuylen

Mike and Kelly Dailey
"Silvana was a true professional. She helped guide us through the process, with negotiating the purchase of a new home to selling our old home. It was not an easy sale, made problematic by the buyers of our old home. Silvana not only stayed in touch on a consistent basis, but made the entire process easier for us, keeping us apprised of the current status as well as discussing strategies in the event the sale did not go through. I would highly recommend her to anyone looking to purchase or sell a home. She treated us like we were members of her family and we truly appreciate her knowledge and expertise. Although we live in a "service" economy, when you receive truly great service you are amazed. That is the type of service we received from Silvana-she was terrific! Mike and Kelli Dailey"

John Fraser
"Stacey was an absolute pleasure to work with! Her knowledge of the market, and understanding of what was important to us, made our home buying
experience very enjoyable. Stacey possesses a unique ability to breakdown the home buying process and present it in such a way that makes it easy to
understand and follow. I would absolutely encourage anyone in the market for a new home to use Stacey DiGrande at Century 21 Cataneo & Associates!"

Sean Sullivan
"My wife and I wouldn't have traded Stacey DiGrande for the world. We had other agents trying to get us to switch and we wouldn't hear of it. She truly listened
to what we said was important to us. We could tell that what we wanted became what was important to her. She was always there for us (and we have difficult
schedules to accommodate) and was never pushy in any way. We are not novices. We own other properties and have worked with many other realtors in the
past. Therefore we speak from experience when we say that C21 should be proud to have her on their team. We would use Stacey again no matter where she chose to hang her license."

"Dear John,

For Sara and me, the experience of moving into her "Dream Home" and house we would call home for our kids to grow and enjoy in, was made seamless due to you tireless efforts. You have been a real gentleman and a trustworthy ally during our quest to find this home. From the first day we met, you gave confidence and when we panicked you gave us support. It was professional and courteous all the way through. We would like to thank you for the gift basket, but beyond that everything you have done, can't thank you enough. For a true gentleman and friend,

Warmest Regards,
Jawad & Sarah"

"In my case I purchased a home before I sold my home and needed to close on a specific date.
My agents not only sold my home but my target close on my other property was satisfied. The whole transaction was hassle free. I thought that a double closing would be a nightmare but it went quick and easy.

"Full Endorsement!

To whom it may concern:
This letter serves as our full endorsement in the wonderful manner in which the team of Steve & Florence Cataneo of Century 21 recently handled the listing and sale of our property. We interviewed several prospective agents and from the very beginning it was clear that this team knew our neighborhood and what we could expect to realize from the sale of our home. Steve & Florence provided expert direction on what we should do to show the home properly and have remained totally involved throughout the process, keeping us fully informed at each step along the way. Our home was "on the market" for just over 30 days and sold at nearly the list price. In addition, we had very unique requests that Steve & Florence addressed then delivered in excess of our expectations. We would highly recommend this team of Real Estate Professionals to anyone considering the sale of their property.

"Florence and Steven Cataneo were exceptional!

As you have seen by my answers to your questionnaire my experience with Century 21 representatives Florence and Steven Cataneo were exceptional! Florence and Steven set themselves, as well as Century 21 above the competition. I do hope Century 21 realizes and acknowledges the asset they have in Florence and Steven. Florence and Steven presented themselves in a most professional manner and managed to slip in the personalism to make me at ease during the transaction from listing to closing. I was impressed when I always received a return call within a reasonable time frame (the same day)!

"We are writing this letter to commend Flo & Steve Cataneo for the exceptional way in which they handled the sale of our house. We knew that selling and buying a home simultaneously would be stressful, however, we certainly did not expect all the problems that arose during these transactions. By no means were these dealings ever effortless.
First there was the long list of demands and requirements for our "new home". Then, once we found a home, there were problems with the seller and to top it off, the buyers of our home were having a problem getting a mortgage. Flo and Steve not only handled each and every situation professionally and competently but also was the liaison that ensured everyone involved fulfilled their responsibilities. Flo and Steve were our Realtors, attorney, therapist, friend, etc., etc. They worked tirelessly and diligently managing all details to ensure our dream came true.
Even though it was no easy task, through their resources, persistence and professionalism, we finalized the sale and purchases of our home. These transactions would never have taken place if we had chosen another realtor!
Flo is an outstanding realtor and person. Flo Cataneo is an Absolute asset to Century 21 and to all that know her. Thank you Flo, you are the best!
