"As a first time buyer, I had several basic questions regarding property, process and time estimate. Sydney understands the psychology of a first time buyer and makes herself available immediately for explaining any process or queries - which is a big plus. Sydney's enthusiasm towards 'Real Estate' business is extremely infectious and she would strive to give solution in all possible angles for one to make the best judgement Sydney has also provided us with valuable recommendations for other actors in the process of 'Home Buying' which helped in further accelerating the process towards closure. I would highly recommend Sydney for her extensive knowledge in the 'Real Estate' business and her enthusiasm."

"Sydney was amazing! Very professional, knowledgeable and responsive. We bought our first home in the midst of the pandemic and she really made it much easier for us. When I sell/buy homes in the future, I will most definitely work with her again. Highly recommend."

"Sidney was very helpful and quick to response. She also referred us to an awesome lender. Both of them worked hard for us. Per our request, we closed the deal at a record time, smoothly with no single mistakes. Highly recommended."

"My boyfriend and I used Sidney to purchase a home recently. Even after the sale Sidney and her team were responsive to questions and concerns with the property, and provided help. What sets Sidney aside is the guarantee to either purchase your home or represent the sale at no cost if you aren't satisfied with the home for the first two years. This eased our mind, because after my last home purchase, my entire department was laid off as the company tried to re-identify itself. This occurred 3months after that home purchase and stranded us in the middle of nowhere until I found my current position. All in all, I am very satisfied with Sidney and what she is trying to accomplish."

"Sidney was very strategic in landing a purchase deal for us by going above the best offer by an insignificant amount. She was always a text away and responded very fast. It would have been impossible for us to win the bidding war without her being on our side."

"Marta is a top notch realtor—words can’t even expressed how great it was to work with her! She is professional, organized and extremely savvy about the market. The market is crazy right now, but she helped us get into a great home in a great location within our price range. Finding a place to live can be a real hassle while you’re trying to work full time, but Marta did all the leg work for us. She took time to understand the things that were important to us and helped us prioritize our needs and rate homes based on how well they met those needs. She established a great relationship with the seller’s realtor and helped make negotiations go smoothly."

"Sydney sold a home my partner and I were renting an apartment in. She communicated more with us than anyone else involved in the sale and was a great source of information and comfort. Sydney cares about the people she works with; she really took care of us."

"We experienced special care at each technical and emotional point of buying our house. We are glad to have met Sidney and her team at Hudson Homes, they were simply perfect, a five-star experience! She listened to our wishes, spoken and unspoken, built trust, was always available, and always looked for options that would please us. She has sharp negotiation skills and turned the hard bureaucratic process into a free-flowing experience that we needed to reach our home-buying goals!!! Thank you so much Sidney for the precious work."
