Delighted to share my second experience working with Rachel Shaw, a truly phenomenal realtor -- I…read morefirst worked with Rachel three years ago to buy my first house, and I chose to work with her again recently to list and sell a house. As was the case when I was on the market as a buyer, Rachel is easy to work with and very knowledgeable about the market and the neighborhood. I really appreciated that she was transparent about the how/why of her pricing recommendations and listing strategy (taking the time to talk through every detail if that's what I needed) and I trusted her completely. A few other 'perks' that I didn't realize to look for in a realtor but were invaluable in my house selling experience: - Rachel has been doing this a long time, and has incredible insight on what types of updates to consider/prioritize that will increase the value and interest in the house (which was very helpful for me because my house needed some major refreshing, but with a very tight budget) - she has a list of recommended trades persons for any work you need to hire for (and will even recommend different shades of white paint for that fresh coat that you may want to apply before listing!) - she is SO responsive! No waiting around for a reply when you have a question/concern/need... she gets back so quickly and manages to thoroughly address the question/concern/need in the simplest way. - she is approachable and easy to work with, and also really savvy and strategic on getting the best possible outcome for her client I loved working with Rachel, and highly recommend her and the Philly Home Girls team for your real estate needs! An all-around positive (and successful!! she got my house sold so quickly, and over asking!) experience!

Rent Scene was absolutely pivotal in my apartment search. I was moving to Philadelphia from out of…read morestate and had 2 days to find a new home. Alex worked with me to set up two days of appointments across about 7 apartments. He was patient, super responsive, arranging things behind the scenes like a mastermind. On the first day Dwight showed me three apartments, and gave me great tips on what to consider when looking for a new neighborhood to call home, and was super informative and helpful. On the second day I found the place that I'll be moving into next month! Rent Scene made the entire process incredibly manageable. I can't recommend them more highly. I would use them again in a heartbeat.

Priscilla helped me over the phone, and she understood that I needed the person in the unit above my possible unit to be there and walk around so that I could hear the sound from above. I called back a day or two later, and Priscilla said, "Is this Mills? We are still trying to connect with the tenant in the unit above." I really appreciated the effort she made. William showed me the unit and was very helpful with getting the tenant in the unit above me to be there and to walk around. He listened to my concerns about my overall search and gave me his candid opinion about what might be best for me. He was on time in showing me the unit and very knowledgeable about the building. I really hope the Centra owner knows how good these employees are.

One guy did keep putting pressure on me threatening to pull the deal if I didn't get them out. But all in all they waited the extra time (past our original closing date) and we sealed the deal. Because I live out of state, they made it very easy for me to send me the contract, closing documents, etc. and even had the title company send a mobile notary to my home for me to sign the papers. Though we closed several months ago, I am just now getting some pictures of what they've done with my parents' home. I spent the first half of my life in that house. They have restored it to what I always suspected it to look like. Denise T.

As a family of four eager to buy our first home, we were fortunate to have Bibe as our real estate agent. She was available via phone or text and promptly responded to our inquiries. Bibe generously shared her expertise and guided us through the entire process, patiently explaining each step. In this fast-paced market, her promptness was crucial, as she provided us with the necessary documentation to submit our offers. As a first-time homebuyer, we couldn't have asked for a smoother experience especially in the days leading to settlement. Bibe ensured everything was in order and walked us through each step, significantly reducing our anxiety. We highly recommend Bibe to anyone looking to buy a home. We would definitely reach out to her again for any future purchases.
