What-an-experience! My wife and I decided to sell our home and went with Gloria Luciano as our Real…read moreEstate Agent as the best fit candidate, and whao what a right choice it was. Not only did she manage to sell our home for more than my next door neighbor, but was able to negotiate with the buyers for LESS credit at closing the table, all while the buyers kept pushing for way more unreasonably. She helped with clean out resources, and other networks. Whenever we needed anything in the process, she was there to help and that was by far an outstanding unique quality of hers compared to others that prolong or put a dead end to real estate goals in todays horrible market. She was easy to work with, a professional in her field, adaptive, and an effective communicator. We totally recommend Gloria Luciano for any real estate needs, buy, sell, or rent. Thank you so much for your help! It was a pleasure for us to work with you.

She answered our calls and texts even at inconvenient hours. She was always prepared and kept us in the loop and prepared as well, usually bringing up tasks before we even knew we had to do them. She really went above and beyond through the search process, buying process, and even into the transition into our new home. She also has connections around the Hudson Valley and provided recommendations for different partners we could work with across different fields, while at the same time she was open to new people that we chose and worked smoothly with them as well. We would highly recommend Ana and cannot say enough good things about our process working with her.

We were referred to Brian Caplicki and The Caplicki Home Team when selling our home in Campbell Hall, NY. From day one, Brian's knowledge of the Orange County market stood out.

If you're buying or selling Orange County or the Hudson Valley, I can't recommend Brian and his team enough!

Wow. Where to start?…read more In the 10 years I've lived in the U.S., Sharmistha "Mish" Dutta is the best realtor I've dealt with. She's also one of the most patient, determined, and kind-hearted people I've ever known. I moved from L.A. to New York, and Mish represented the seller of the New York house I hoped to buy. Due to her amazing availability and professionalism, she eventually became my agent also (i.e., on the buying side). From my many initial questions to negotiations to contract signing, Mish was there providing timely responses and lucid straightforward information. I never once got the impression anything was sugarcoated, or more or less than the clear truth. But... all of this was kinda just the start. Problem: Once the price was hammered out, there were a number of processes regulated by New York law that needed to be followed, most of which I was unfamiliar with as a Californian. Solution: Mish was able to connect me with Stenger, Diamond & Glass, an outstanding law firm whose services were vital in legally settling the real-estate transaction. This included an unexpected step in which an affidavit was needed to gain city approval. Mish, along with Jessica and Sandra from the law firm, worked hard to get me over this hurdle expediently. Problem: A far bigger hurdle was the fact that I was misled by my moving company. Despite stating 60-day delivery time was likely, this moving company ended up unexpectedly announcing that they were going to drop off my possessions before my arrival date. In other words, the "60-day delivery time" was merely a tactic for motivating clients to pay more to avoid "delays". Solution: Mish ingeniously brainstormed an idea and worked with the seller of the New York house to land an out-of-the-box solution that eliminated any time pressure on me, and fit my needs perfectly. Problem: Active insurance was mandatory for closing the deal. I spent an entire afternoon calling five to six insurance companies (e.g., Allstate, Progressive, smaller vendors). Due to the $1.7-1.9M assessed replacement value, they all failed to offer coverage, citing risk. Solution: Mish arranged support from Katy, her teammate from Weichert Realtors. Katy was able to immediately issue an insurance policy, unblocking closure with zero date impact. To sum up, the kind of resourcefulness and dynamicism shown by Mish is rare among professionals from any industry (i.e., not only real estate). She was instrumental in making my New York dream a reality. Based on the above, I feel like Mish and I have been through a lot together. And as a result, I'm blessed to consider her more a friend than a realtor.
