Gwen is a marvel at what she does. She is so talented, filled with heart, personalizes each step of the way so you feel truly supported at each juncture. She both knows the market and prioritizes her clients needs and wants expertly. When you are looking to make a big life change, selling or buying a home, there is no one I would trust and put my full confidence in like Gwen. She is “The Best.”

Debra Links - Seller

Gwen is the ultimate professional. We had a wonderful experience selling our house because of her knowledge, marketing talent and patience in outlining the necessary steps to expedite the listing and sale. Gwen is compassionate and honest. She provides the necessary referrals for sellers to prepare their home for the sale. Our home was sold in under two weeks. Gwen was a true Pleasure to work with.

Lois Steckler - Seller

Selling your home is a stressful process, especially when you have three kids and a large dog. Working with Gwen certainly will make it easier and smoother. She is a true professional — knowledgeable, experienced, honest, punctual, pleasant and, most importantly, responsive. Gwen is always available by phone or text — nights, weekends and vacations too! To top it all off, she is considerate. At the closing, she gifted us a portrait of our home. It was one of the most thoughtful gifts we have ever received. We highly recommend hiring Gwen as your real estate agent. You won’t be disappointed!

We were looking to purchase our first house for last two years — could not simply get it right—During this process we met Gwen—Gwen is the best at what she does—very knowledgeable, professional, and respectful—always available to help in facilitating the process for optimal results — I have already referred two of my family members to Gwen whom are looking to purchase their next homes. Gwen simply gets it done—we are very fortunate to work with her and it was the best decision we have ever made—Thank you Gwen for all your help and now we are loving our home.

A. David - Buyer

Gwen was more than accessible, she made the deal happen. When we needed recommendations for architects, electrician, and others to get a C of O for sale of the house, all of her recommendations were spot on. Gwen guided us very well in choosing the best asking price and strategy for sale. And then she delivered! I could not imagine having done this without Gwen! Mark Atlas - Seller

Gwen was such a pleasure to work with! She has a Great personality and she did her best for us and we will always
remember that! Lawrence Coward - Seller

Gwen was a great realtor. Was very honest and upfront of what we needed to do to sell our house quickly. Helped us pick a fair listing price and it worked. Received 3 offers in the first 4 days of listing it and we accepted a full price offer. Contract to closing it all went smoothly. I highly recommend her. Elise Rubinstein - Seller

My husband and I just purchased our first home and had a top-notch experience working with Gwen. She could not have been more patient and was always looking out for our best interest. Her extensive knowledge of the area and the home-buying process, in general , proved highly valuable and she always gave freely of her time, guiding us along the way. On top of all of her competencies, she also is super congenial and fun to be around, and gives you the feeling that she genuinely cares about you (because she does!) all while staying professional. She even gave us a lovely house-warming gift at our closing. I would highly recommend Gwen to anyone looking to purchase a home in Rockland County! Kris Kurek - Buyer

Gwen met with us initially, co-developed a sales plan with us, and sold our home within about 2 weeks. This is particularly impressive given that other, comparable houses on our street are not selling. at all, and do not even appear to be getting any traffic. Gwen Weiss is absolutely terrific. We have already referred her to 3 other potential clients, and will continue to do so. Daniel Walgrove - Seller

Gwen Weiss was wonderful to work with. She suggested an appropriate selling price, helped stage the home and received an offer within the first few days of showing. Gwen was easy to deal with and is knowledgable about prices in our community. I would retain Gwen again should we ever sell or purchase a home. I highly recommend her to anyone in the market of buying or selling a home. Allen Fetterman - Buyer and Seller

I interviewed 3 realtors before deciding to use Gwen. It was a good choice for us! We worked well together and came up with a mutually agreeable plan. Our house had multiple offers (all above asking) in the first week. Gwen was always responsive to any questions or issues that arose. I definitely recommend her to anyone planning to sell their home. Hildee Ryan-Seller

Gwen Weiss was the broker we used to sell my mother's house (after she moved to an Assisted Living community) - Gwen went out of her way to help us navigate every step of the process - her help in recommendations for updates to the house to make it more sellable were invaluable- as well as her knowledge of the real estate market in the area. She went out of her way always to help us out with anything we needed done, whether it was giving someone access to the house or giving us recommendations when we needed landscapers, cleaning services, etc. Everything was seamless when we closed on the house. Ellen A. - Seller

Gwen Weiss is the best broker ever !!!!!! She is truly an exemplar professional , an expert in her business , she's kind and has amazing skills in dealing with people. And, she happens to be dog friendly too. Tammy & Scott Fetterman - Buyers and Sellers

Gwen was an absolute delight to work with. Extremely patient and understanding with our needs and wants. Always accessible at all times. One of her best qualities was that she wanted what was best for us and was not trying to convince us to compromise with any of our wants. Working with Gwen was great and I will definitely recommend her to my friends and family. Sony Jacob, NY - Buyer

Gwen came highly recommended to sell our beautiful, yet difficult to sell home. She did a great job of explaining to us the market and the "right" pricing. She arranged the photographer, got some excellent shots and marketed the property both locally and more widely across the metro area. She also came up with a creative marketing approach that was the key to success in finding a great buyer and helped us to a smooth close! Steve Wald- Seller
