Mariellen is the consummate professional. She represented us in the sale of our parents’ house after almost 50 years of ownership. Her advice was invaluable and she knew exactly what to do to get the house in shape and on the market by the date we had targeted. She handled a difficult buyer and their agent with aplomb and we went to contract just days after listing the house. She also went the extra mile in helping us resolve some complicated permitting issues with the Village and one of our former contractors that almost jeopardized our sale. In the end, she made a huge difference and the sale closed at above our asking price. We give Mariellen our strongest recommendation.
Mariellen helped us buy our first house. She helped us seamlessly navigate countless showings, supporting us as real estate neophytes as we explored the sometimes intense Westchester market. She has an amazing ability to impart her insight while also letting the buyers come to the right decision for themselves. From start to finish, she was always available to answer all of our questions and remains part of our homeowner experience well after we closed on the house. Mariellen is so well connected in the area — from contractors to designers, handy men to cleaners — we always felt like we had a a true insider on our team. We could not recommend working with Mariellen more, whether you our first time buyers, or longtime real estate experts. She is an incredible copilot!
Mariellen is an excellent broker! We greatly benefited from her experience and in-depth knowledge of Bronxville and the surrounding communities. She is professional, insightful and patient and helped us successfully sell our house and find our new home. It was a pleasure working with her!
My wife and I worked with Mariellen twice over the course of a number of years and she was terrific. Her knowledge of the local market, ability to understand our needs, and her team's high service level led to excellent results both buying and selling for us. It was terrific.
Mariellen was great. Her pre-listing suggestions were thoughtful and smart and definitely took some of the stress out of “prepping to sell”. She was super professional during the bid to contract process.
Mariellen worked with us for nearly two years while we searched for the perfect home for our family. She took the time to really get to know us as a family and had a great sense of what we were looking for. She has unmatched knowledge of the communities where she works and was an incredibly helpful resource for all things home-ownership related post closing as well. She is truly exceptional, a lovely person, and I highly recommend working with her!
Mariellen handled both our buying and selling process, ensuring a seamless transition to our new life in Bronxville. Not only is she deeply knowledgeable about the Bronxville real estate market, she also helped us navigate the intricacies of every step of the transaction. She is professional and reliable, and always keeps the communication effective and very pleasant at the same time. With her own life experience in Bronxville and a broad network, even after the transaction, Mariellen remains a great resource when it comes to renovation and maintenance of our new home.
It has been a great pleasure working with Mariellen, and we highly recommend Mariellen Carpenter as your trusted adviser in real estate.
Mariellen is extremely knowledgeable and was helpful throughout the entire selling process. Her guidance and perspective made the process manageable. I highly recommend Mariellen to anyone needing to sell or buy in the area. Her expertise went beyond the process to make me feel supported. She helped me find other professionals to make selling both my home and furnishings less stressful. A wonderful person and a great professional.
Mariellen proved invaluable when we moved earlier this year from New York City to Bronxville and purchased a home. She was very knowledgeable about the town, inventory (including shadow inventory), bid strategy, and town codes / local recommendations as we thought about potential renovations. She was organized and professional throughout the process, and I would recommend her highly.
