"Having a trustworthy agent was our primary concern.
Jeff was dedicated to our wants and needs.
Devon was very and helpful when needed
Jeff played an integral role in our purchase in a highly competitive market. He got us right into houses for showings, structured a P&S agreement that was a deciding factor in us getting our offer accepted, and made many key suggestions to help with a smooth closing."

"We have relocated for work numerous times over the years, both internationally and cross country. Having the right realtor has always been one of the most important aspects of every move. However, in today’s Covid market with the lack of available real estate, it is crucial to be working with someone both knowledgeable and efficient, as you do not have the luxury of time to research properties to the extent warranted by these fast selling, top dollar properties. You snooze, you lose! You need a professional who knows the area and property – value and history, and if there are unknowns, has the contacts and drive to get the information quickly. Leslie Hogan is that realtor and more. She is exceptionally informed and knows the market extensively. She is a pleasure to work with – friendly, intelligent, and sincere-- the type of person you’d love to have as a neighbor. You are not taking any chances with Leslie, you are getting the best!"

Rachel, Newport (Buyer) Tue, 01 Jun 2021 10:54:19 +1000
"If it weren't for Diane Harrison, I am certain we would never have found the beautiful house we can now call home. Diane was the consummate professional, friendly, trustworthy, reliable and dependable. She gave us counsel when we needed it. Was knowledgeable about current trends in realty and the neighborhood. Never pressured us to buy something she knew was not what we wanted. The process was frustrating through these unusual times as homes came and went within days and sometimes hours. We were from out of state and Diane would even visit houses for us when we were unable to see the property because of distance. We felt such confidence in her work that we never doubted she had our best interests at heart. She is a dedicated professional, a top realtor, and a wonderful person. Thank you Diane!"
Joseph and Pat Montano, South Kingstown (Buyer) Thu, 27 May 2021 08:50:28 +1000
"Cathy did an awesome job throughout the whole process. She made seeing houses a breeze - whenever we saw something online that we liked, she setup an appointment to see the houses really quickly and all we had to do was show up. She knew the area really well and gave her honest opinion on a lot of the properties - which helped us determine if we thought a house was over or under valued.
Whenever we put in an offer on a house, we never felt pressured to offer anything we weren't comfortable with. Due to the hectic market, it was nice to not feel pressured to go way over asking or waive inspections/appraisals just to get a house. Everything with the negotiation process worked out nicely as we got the house for a great price and did not have to negotiate past our initial offer. Along with that, the seller wanted to expedite the closing process and Cathy handled everything she needed to quickly which allowed for the process to go smoothly."
Ryder Rinaldi, Newport (Buyer) Fri, 21 May 2021 05:47:18 +1000
"Our home purchase involved a very lengthy and challenging "new build", and Jeff had our backs every step along the way. He was instrumental in helping us reach a successful outcome, which was absolutely not guaranteed. We would definitely work with Jeff again and recommend Jeff to our friends and families."
Donald McHenry, Mattapoisett (Buyer) Fri, 21 May 2021 05:30:55 +1000
"Tammy is a dream to work with! She made both the buying and selling processes extremely easy and stress free.

Not to mention, she is the one of the friendliest people and just a pleasure to work with!"

"Paul sold our condo in Newport and did a great job. So we decided to use Paul again.
Has great knowledge of the market and we value his options on what real values are.
With a line of buyers and agents waiting to view this home while we were inside, Paul had a plan to get it for us.
Paul had our interests in mind and helped us get thru this difficult process.
Could not have been better
We had started looking last fall and could not find what we wanted. Then we started looking again earlier this year and Paul helped us find a place that checked off all our requirements."
Jay Adler Bristol (Buyer) Thu, 29 Apr 2021 22:43:51 +1000
"Holly McLear made every effort to find my home in a fairly quick turnaround period due to my move date to Rhode Island. She worked day and night, weekday and weekends evaluating homes on the marketplace in my price range and traveling about to allow me to virtually tour homes. I had faith in her from the start to be my eyes and ears since I was unable to visit the homes in person.. She went ABOVE and BEYOND to find the perfect home for us and I am forever grateful for her wisdom, kindness, intellect on the housing market!! Additionally, I was having issues with getting credible answers on my VA loan from my first loan officer and she assisted with getting the correct answers and provided guidance on where to turn to find out what I needed. Without the correct information, and her guidance, there would have been several issues with my mortgage. Thankfully everything worked out more than perfectly and I love my new home!! Thank you so much Holly!!"
Jodi Schubert ~ North Kingstown (Buyer) Fri, 23 Apr 2021 11:31:45 +1000
"Emily handled the sale of my mother's home after my mother passed away. Her calm professionalism and personable nature made a very emotionally difficult time much easier to get through. Furthermore, her market knowledge netted us a sales price that I and my family were very happy with. Her quality of service is excellent and I will certainly hire her again."
Michael, Portsmouth, RI (Seller) Thu, 22 Apr 2021 23:39:30 +1000

"I have moved over 15 times in my Navy career and have bought and sold 7 houses in that timeframe. Tammy had made this move the best by far, she was attentive and dedicated to helping us. She truly made us so comfortable with the entire process, and truly had our best interest at heart. She is an amazing realtor and even better person. I strongly recommend that anyone buying or selling a house should hire Tammy Bass as their realtor. We will utilize her services again!!!"
Tony Beaster & Jessica Woody, Jamestown (Buyer) Tue, 20 Apr 2021 09:30:19 +1000
"Wonderful, positive experience with Tammy! We were purchasing from the West coast and couldn’t view houses in person, Tammy patiently FaceTimed the homes with us as well as taking video walk throughs we could watch later. She was extremely knowledgeable about the area as well as personal recommendations for inspectors, lenders, that led to a wonderful, positive experience!"
Alex & Steve Ilteris, East Greenwich (Buyer) Tue, 20 Apr 2021 06:57:21 +1000

He was extremely responsive to any questions or concerns we had. On top of it all, Jeff is a really nice person and it was a pleasure to do business with him!"

In short, we had a great experience."

"Tammy Bass was wonderful to work with! We trusted that she had our best interest in mind as she looked at properties for us. She was easy to communicate with and has an eye for detail! We selected to work with Tammy because we valued her knowledge and experience with buying from afar, as well as her understanding of the VA loan, local market, and our lifestyle. We trusted Tammy throughout the entire process of purchasing our home because she is straightforward, honest, and easy to communicate with. She kept us well informed and advocated for us whenever needed. We are incredibly grateful for the work Tammy put in to helping ensure we found a home we loved. We had a great first buying experience because of Tammy and highly recommend her!"

Her patience, prompt communication, and ability to solve issues that arise, in a calm and determined manner, are just some qualities that make her a kick-ass realtor!

From the very beginning, Hillary was attentive, understanding, patient, efficient and

recommend her/them to anyone looking for a property."

"Emily Chappell was a pleasure to work with! She was a true professional and made sure she knew what we were looking for in our search. She listened to our wants and needs and showed us houses that fell within our outlined requirements and budget. House hunting in the past has been somewhat draining and stressful, but working with Emily made everything so much more enjoyable and exciting. She was great at setting up showings that fit our schedule and made us feel super safe and comfortable during Covid-19. Emily was always accessible and answered any and all questions that we had whether we reached out on weekdays or the weekends.
I am so glad that we worked with Emily because she worked very hard to ensure we found a house that we really loved. The entire process from start to finish was seamless and Emily answered all of our questions with accuracy and in a timely manner. Emily knows the Rhode Island area and was a true professional. I would recommend her to anyone who is in need of Real Estate services!"

"To whom it may concern,
We recently purchased a property in Middletown that was a complex transaction for several factors. We had the good fortune of having Michele Mullowney as our broker. Michele handled the entire process flawlessly from start to finish during the Covid-19 pandemic which was no easy task. Michele has a great local knowledge of that market and is a tireless worker. She was very easy to reach and communicate with. I would recommend Michele to anyone looking for a home in the Newport/Middletown market.
Regards,
Paul Campbell."
Campbell Family, Newton MA (Buyer) Tue, 01 Dec 2020 04:50:05 +1000
"We chose Michele Mullowney to represent us in looking for a summer home in Newport. Of course, we had many choices in realtors and chose Michele for her expertise, knowledge of "everything Newport' and her strong work ethic. In addition, she is wonderful person that cares about the buyer as much as the seller. She has the ability to be firm and also very fair in her negotiations with all parties. We would highly recommend Michele to anyone looking for a home in Newport."

"Tom was referred by a good friend of ours and I like the fact that he lives in Newport and knows the local market.
Tom was great! He was very good about communicating key information throughout the process, especially since the listing agent wasn't very involved in the transaction. He even met the HVAC guys at the condo for us since we live out of state. We would definitely use Tom's services again and are looking forward to having him as our new neighbor!"
Pam & Steve Parker, Newport, RI (Buyer) Sat, 14 Nov 2020 05:35:42 +1000

Rita Carbone Portsmouth RI (Buyer) Mon, 02 Nov 2020 04:25:35 +1000
"I used Cathy to both sell my Newport property and purchase a new property on Aquidneck Island. Cathy is always attentive and responsive. Her professionalism, knowledge of the market and ability to provide timely advice about local contractors and services proved to be invaluable. In this highly competitive market it’s important to have someone on your side that is as knowledgeable as Cathy. She was wonderful."
Jack from Portsmouth (Buyer) Fri, 30 Oct 2020 10:28:49 +1000
"We recently sold our house and toyed with the idea of “for sale by owner.” Were we glad we changed our minds! After a thorough review of local realtors, we selected Leslie Hogan, one of the co-owners of Hogan Associates. We couldn’t have made a better choice. Leslie was the ideal person to shepherd us through the arduous home sale process. I can honestly say that the house sale process proved to be one of our most challenging undertakings to date. Leslie was the ideal partner every step of the way. Her vast experience, calm demeanor, intricate knowledge, and ethical behavior provided what we needed to keep things in perspective during all phases of this demanding activity. Leslie worked with us throughout the process. At every decision point, options were discussed before a decision was finalized. Her breadth of experience, accompanied by her calm, relaxed manner, were especially crucial and comforting at these junctures. She was never pushy, and decisions were always mutually acceptable and a collaborative effort. Shortly before closing, we encountered a potentially problematic situation. After discussing several options, the situation was resolved after we agreed on a mutually acceptable, ethical solution that Leslie presented to the buyer in her calm, elegant manner. Leslie’s skill at handling difficult situations was evident throughout the sales process and it was always accompanied by her unflappable, pleasant demeanor. We could not have wished for a better, more likeable person to be by our side during this process. We are certain that anyone who hires her to guide them through the house sale process will have a positive experience with a truly delightful, ethical realtor."
Katie Dyer, Newport (Seller) Wed, 28 Oct 2020 03:52:41 +1000
"Know that there are many families that we grew up with that were born and raised in Newport before it became a national tourist attraction. It was a much different place years ago with being very family oriented and just plain simple yet safe living. Only we have those great long time memories, so when selling a home for a true "Newporter" you must have understanding that it is not just about the sale. Matt and Michele at Hogan Associates did a great job!"
Laura Morrissette - For the Hattub Family, 8 Tyler Street, Newport RI (Seller) Wed, 28 Oct 2020 01:28:24 +1000
"We have used Tammy previously and would highly recommend her to anyone due to her knowledge of the area, the ease of the process that she provides and her negotiating skills. She listened to our needs and wants and was readily available to answer any questions or concerns."
Kate Fay, Portsmouth RI (Buyer) Tue, 27 Oct 2020 07:50:30 +1000
"Hi, I would like to say what a wonderful experience we had dealing with Jeff Brooks.
He took us through a very difficult process of buying a house while we lived in another state. He always made time for us during the weekends that we were able to visit and search for houses.
Jeff did a wonderful job navigating a nonconventional sale through a bank owned property.
He also has put me in touch with local repairmen and contractors that he, himself uses.
I would recommend him highly!!
Mike Gaughan"
Michael Gaughan- Middletown RI (Buyer) Mon, 26 Oct 2020 23:49:47 +1000
"Matt Hadfield is the absolute best broker I have ever worked
with
He understood my wishes and was available
to me nights and weekends
He did not waste my time and kept me informed
I totally trust his knowledge and competency in real estate and
Is the person I would refer anyone to considering a place in
The Newport area
I hope Matt becomes a long term friend as we spend
time in Newport
I cannot give him a higher recommendation and
I would refer Matt with that recommendation
He is a true professional and my husband and I am very grateful
To him for finding us a place we had hoped for ."

"Leslie Hogan’s approach in handling this property was key. She immediately understood the history of the property and what it meant to us. Leslie asked a lot of questions and then set a plan with an aggressive timeline. There were many years of accumulated items to be packed up and moved to get ready for showings. We met the challenge and the house looked great. Leslie’s personality put us at ease yet she kept us on task. Her real estate knowledge and professionalism are outstanding. We are so pleased and grateful to Leslie for handling the sale of our home."

Chris was really patient, listened attentively to what we liked and didn't like with each property and ultimately found us a home that hit every single item on our list! Throughout the buying process, Chris gave us great support and guidance. Overall, we had a fantastic experience and would recommend Chris to anyone looking to buy a home."

Jeff Brooks was a pleasure to work with and was very helpful with contacts for financing, insurance and construction."
John Kelly, Jamestown (Buyer) Wed, 07 Oct 2020 07:53:12 +1000
"Tammy was awesome. Trying to purchase a home, during a pandemic, and from over 700 miles away was stressful. Tammy went about helping me as if she was looking for a home for herself and her own family and that made what started out as a stressful process a lot less stressful and more enjoyable. I was able to find the perfect home and day by day I fall more in love with it. My smooth transition was made possible because Tammy is so absolutely amazing at her job."
Janae L - Portsmouth, RI (Buyer) Wed, 07 Oct 2020 06:55:08 +1000
"Hillary was truly exceptional. We have gone thru this process before several times and were, quite frankly, dreading it. Our experience with her was by far the most smoothest, most pleasant we have ever had. Extremely pleasant and always available, Hillary kept us up to date on everything from inspections, to mortgage questions to helping us negotiate. Not only that, she noticed items that had been agreed to that had not yet been resolved or were unacceptable the day before the closing and pushed to have them corrected. There were other things as well that were truly above and beyond what we as buyers might have expected. Very professional, attentive to detail and a strong advocate for her clients as well."

I would encourage anyone looking for an experienced and knowledgeable agent to reach out to Paul. He is a gem."

She is very knowledgeable of the areas we were looking to buy which was a plus since we are both not originally from Rhode Island. She was very professional and extremely patient with us. Thank you Holly for doing an amazing job we love our new home x"
Michelle Deasy, Tiverton (Buyer) Tue, 06 Oct 2020 09:56:11 +1000

With COVID, traditional sales strategies were not applicable and Tammy was very aware of the rapid-fire change in the real estate market as result of the pandemic. She has superior communication skills and a fantastic knowledge of the marketplace. She gave expert advice on when to list as well as the listing price. She answered all questions quickly and was prepared with honest feedback each step of the way!"

She communicated with us every step of the way and made sure we were always kept in the loop. To stay she was patient and kind is an understatement. She was amazing!"

"Hill showed off her interior design degree while exceeding expectations as to her participation in finish and color selections, and staging this 1 of a kind new construction ocean front home. More importantly, she blew it away regarding marketing and generating showings despite it being the height of the COVID 19 challenges. As to any Seller requests, Hillary consistently proved herself to be a "can do" team member, whose follow through is second to none. Bottom line, not only did Hillary "show me the money!" she made a seller's life easier in the process."

"Holly is great! She knows the region, people in the area, and properties.
I explicitly trust Holly handling my property requirements.
She’s the model for real estate agents. My fiancée instantly saw what I saw in her as well!
I’ve bought and sold 25-30 houses for personal use and rentals. I know an excellent agent when I see one and Holly is one!
This was a very challenging closing: in COVID, with a difficult loan officer team and difficult underwriter over a 90-day period. Holly held the line and advised me throughout the process."

"Barbara went above and beyond. As first time home buyers we had many questions and a tight timeline for seeing potential homes. She was extremely knowledgeable, flexible, detail oriented and helpful throughout our buying process. I would definitely recommend working with her!"

"Caroline is extremely professional and personal. She spent time to learn what Jane and I were looking for and was willing to spend time with us finding the best fit. We have purchased numerous properties for our own use and for investment purposes and we rate Caroline extremely high on our list of brokers."

"Tammy went above and beyond in helping us purchase a home. From being flexible when I was in the area to look to being equally if not more detail oriented in finding the right fit for us. When we decided on a new build and the pandemic struck she went above and beyond making us feel comfortable with purchasing a new build from afar.
Tammy exceeded our expectations in all regards in helping us with choosing a home and through the new build process. She made us feel comfortable with not being able to visit the progress of the home (due to the pandemic and a military move) and was able to go by the home and take pictures for us. It made us feel so comfortable and at ease over first-time home buying fears. She is incredibly approachable, kind and honest.
As I have said before, Tammy went above and beyond in helping us purchase our first home. If I knew of an award to nominate her for I would! She is an incredible real estate agent who honestly felt like family by the end of it with her kindness and caring during buying a new build during a pandemic. Her experience as a former military spouse as well as her past experience working for a builder made her the perfect fit for us. She is so knowledgeable about Newport and the surrounding area (we bought off the island) and really got to know us and helped find the right fit for us. She made the whole process run as smooth as possible and was so helpful, honest and thorough."

"It was incredibly important for us to love our realtor as we knew how much contact we would have with her. The level of trust, reliability, professionalism and honesty was of utmost importance when choosing to work with Hillary. She ticked all our boxes and went above and beyond to sell our beautiful home. We have used other realtors in the past and the difference was remarkable. We will use her again in the future for sure. Thank you so much Hillary."

"Tammy is a highly skilled professional who works hard to cultivate relationships in the area and facilitate a smooth process for the parties she represents. Evidenced by her sales record even in a pandemic! Her attention to detail and professionalism were extremely appreciated.
Our home was scheduled to list months earlier but paused due to Covid 19 concerns. Tammy kept interest high and marketed well with ‘coming soon’ prior to being active on MLS. The buzz was so helpful, to have buyers interested quickly with the limitations during the restrictions for safety.
We would use her services again when purchasing in the area and have recommended highly to several neighbors, family members, and friends relocating to the area."

"Working with Jeff Brooks was great. Our schedule was tight and he was good about booking appointments for us that fit into our schedule, providing honest feedback on potential homes, and helping with negotiations. He helped us to determine the true value of a home, and not to get emotional about it. I would highly recommend working with him as he was professional, approachable, and honest. I appreciated the relationship we developed throughout the course of our house hunt and would not hesitate to recommend him to others."

"Gordon knows and understands "coastal" properties, his clientele and the changing real estate market. He is thoughtful, courteous and an all around nice man. We first met Gordon when we thought we may be interested in moving (a year or two ago) and his knowledge, follow-through and accessibility were very impressive. We have dealt with a number of realtors over the years and knew immediately (following our first interaction with him) that Gordon was a man who took his job and his clients needs (and wants) seriously so Gordon was an easy decision when we did finally decide to buy a new home. Five stars and highly recommended."

"Emily Chappell has helped out friends and family with buying homes, and we knew right away based on all the positive feedback, that we'd want her to be a part of our home buying process.
Emily did a great job in keeping us up to date with pertinent information throughout the process. She helped us negotiate a price we were comfortable with and was available with any questions we had...and being first time home buyers, we had a lot ! Emily was always friendly, funny, and professional. She explained a lot of things to us based on her knowledge when doing walkthroughs/inspection. We thought buying a house during a pandemic would be tough, but she made it a breeze !
We would HIGHLY RECOMMEND Emily Chappell if you want someone in your corner that cares about what's important to you, and will put the work in to make your dreams a reality. Thank you so much for making our dreams come true Emily ! :)"

"Cathy met us at 110 Second St back in November of 2019 when we first started looking for a full time home in Newport. We went back multiple times to revisit weather or not we wanted to make the move. Cathy made herself available every time we asked for her to meet us there and let us in and answer questions.
Finally in April/May time frame in 2020 we decided to put in an offer and it was accepted after a little back and forth.
After that everything went smoothly and her communication was always timely and professional.
It made for a very stress process and is greatly appreciated.
Thank You, Kevin"

"Big kudos to Hillary Olinger for making this long distance transaction possible. Hillary is realistic and extremely knowledgeable about real estate, the area, and the advantages and drawbacks of particular properties. She is much more hands-on than most agents with regard to needed work and assessing what is possible. She is organized, helpful, optimistic, generous with her time and just a pleasure to be around. She is also a fund of information with regard to local contacts. Every challenge and every request was met cheerfully and many, many times I felt she had gone above and beyond what was required or expected. I'm sure I would have given up the search without her!"

"Jeff did an outstanding job of selling our rental property in 6 weeks. Jeff is professional, knowledgable, works hard and works smart. We were out of town during the time the property was listed to the time the property sold. Jeff handled all aspects of the sale including lining up contractors to complete work prior to the sale and fix issues uncovered during the inspection.
We are so grateful to have Jeff as our real estate agent. We highly recommend Jeff to any potential seller or buyer."

It was a stress free and seamless process. Diane was always available for questions and consistent in her follow through.
A true professional!
We would certainly refer individuals to Diane and Hogan Associates in the future!

"Jeff Brooks took the time to set up a conference to ensure that he understood our needs and that we would be a good fit working together.
Jeff Brooks was amazing from start to finish with the purchase of our home! He is very knowledgeable, and when asked about certain criteria’s he would go into depth explanation to make sure I was comfortable and understood the laws/agreement of the transaction. Jeff had a fantastic communication, not only with myself, but with the sellers realtor and the mortgage company. And trust me the sellers realtor was not amazing like Jeff. Jeff knew the guidelines and held the sellers to the expectations. Jeff would give me updates before I even remembered to follow up with him. Because of his knowledge and experience when it came to negotiating he truly had our best interest in heart; even when we were scared to negotiate a little lower, he knew what was best for us before we knew it. From the beginning he negotiated the price down based on facts of the home in the market, and after our home inspection he made sure to go back and have negotiations done again based off of the reports. It was outstanding how much money he saved us!
Jeff always made us feel like we could reach out no matter the time or day or how silly the question was. He was even clear when we were searching for a home that he had a scheduled vacation (just so we had advance notice). When the time came he was on vacation and said for us not to worry because he was still going to be putting in office hours so if we needed him do not hesitate to reach out.
Jeff Brooks went above and beyond and I have been highly recommending him to my friends families and coworkers!"

"Mike has the combination of real estate and development experience that fit our needs - property was distressed and a rehab project. So we considered rebuilding with a modular home. That’s how we found Mike. Further assessment and costing led us to abandon the idea as we were too far away to manage a project. It turned out he knew the neighborhood well and worked with us to figure out options, including sale. He and Emily Chappell were helpful, responsive and sold the property within two weeks of listing."
Mavise, San Francisco (Seller) Sat, 04 Apr 2020 04:10:17 +1000
"Kirsten has acted as my realtor in selling my home and in buying my new home. She is always one step ahead of what ever needs to be done. The only delays I have ever encountered is when she is waiting to hear back from other realtors, lawyers etc, never on her end. Even when she’s waiting to hear back from someone she lets you know. You’re never left wondering what’s going on. I can’t imagine ever moving again because she found us such a wonderful new home but if the occasion ever arose again, I would definitely choose Kirsten McAleer as my realtor."
Pat Swanberg, Tiverton, RI (Seller) Sat, 04 Apr 2020 03:39:22 +1000
"Wonderful service. Kevan Campbell and his team are amazing.
Kevan took excellent care of what we needed to get everything done regarding the sale of our home."
