Amy Sparano was very kind and helpful to me throughout the selling process. I was selling from afar and she put in a lot of extra effort to care for my home while I was away. She also found me great buyers by doing a lot of open houses. She put in a ton of effort on my behalf and that’s why I would recommend her to friends and family in the future.
Julia B Fee Sothebys is a very efficient Realty that I can unhesitatingly recommend to everyone. I had the pleasure of dealing with Holly Mellstrom, Associate RE Broker, when I recently sold my condo unit. Holly has a very pro-active, professional approach in her work, very prompt in her actions and responses and generous in devoting time for her client. Her aim is always to deliver service without delay, to the great satisfaction of her client. Above all, her willingness to help her client in every way she can is a great asset of hers, thereby facilitating the sale and making the process stress-free for her client. Holly and Julia B Fee Sothebys are people you can undoubtedly rely on, trust and have confidence in, in a real estate transaction. I can very well vouch for.
It all went great
When Holly Mellstrom becomes your realtor, she also becomes your good friend that is willing to go far and above her obligations. Whenever we were in a fix, she volunteered to help, whether letting cleaners in, picking up mail/packages, turning lights on/off for a showing when we were out of town, giving recommendations on service people, lending accessories to make a home look better, having an amazing photographer get pictures and the list goes on. All my friends have been informed!
Holly is very easy to work with.
Holly Mellstrom did a phenomenal job selling our home. From staging to pricing, then listing, she was spot on with strategy. We received top dollar for our home as a result of a bidding war. Holly’s marketing and communication skills are excellent. She goes above and beyond for her clients! Lynne and Ed - Pelham, NY
Holly Mellstrom is for good reasons no. 1 real estate agent in Pelham. She is very knowledgeable and helpful throughout the entire process. Holly is my to go person without any doubt.
Great service start to finish.
Holly provided emotional support as I decluttered and offered invaluable advice as to service providers. Her ideas and execution in staging the house and the resulting photos, helped to sell my home quickly.
very professional and positive experience Holly Mellstrom is fantastic
Holly Mellstrom is a badass. She took care of us from start to finish, making an anxiety-provoking process roll out far more smoothly than anticipated. We cannot thank or recommend her enough!
We originally worked with Holly Mellstrom when we first moved to Pelham over two decades ago. Since then we've sold that house with her, and bought and sold another home with her. She's what you want in a partner-- experienced, savvy, knows everyone and everything about the area, gracious and patient, when necessary! When we were in the process of selling our first Pelham home and had already moved out of state, a serious problem arose and she was there in a flash, handling everything that needed to be done, while keeping us fully informed at every step. Trust, respect and great advice-- she's got it all.
“The most powerful agent in Pelham. Why? She really loves her job and always does her best.”
“It has been a great pleasure to work with Holly. She helped us with all the details in the process of purchasing our home. She assisted us in the selection process by providing objective information about each property. Guided us through the closing process and made sure everything flowed together smoothly. Holly is very pleasant as a person and highly professional as well. We would recommend her to anyone looking for a house in Westchester.”
"Holly was sensitive and responsive to our needs and concerns at all times during the 6 months we worked with her to sell our house. She was knowledgeable of real estate patterns in our area and up on economic indicators and its impact on sales. Holly was always courteous and punctual and made a potentially stressful event evolve as smoothly as was possible."
"We had an excellent experience in selling our house with Holly. She was aggressive in a buyers' market; gave what we believed to be very good advice based on her experience; and was extremely proactive throughout the process."
"No one knows Pelham and the Pelham real estate market like Holly. She knows what's coming on the market long before it gets listed. She's reliable, flexible, and easy to work with. A true pro!"
“Want to sell? Get Holly. Want to buy? Get Holly. Want to talk about either? Get Holly. We had a very unique and difficult situation to work through; Holly took all the stress out of it with her calming insight. She was an active participant every step of the way without pressuring us. Holly is the best! “
“Holly was great. She was extremely patient, very prompt in her replies and flexible with her schedule. We really enjoyed working with her.”
“We wanted to sell our property and buy a new one. We got a great price for our house and the deal with closed with no problem at all. I have often got emails from her early in the morning and on weekends. I don’t think she stops working at all. I consider Holly part of our family.”
“We had the pleasure of working with Holly in buying and selling our Pelham homes. She is hardworking, conscientious, honest, and trustworthy. She saw to all the details of both transactions and keep us well informed throughout all phases. We were happy with the results of both real estate deals. Holly continues to be a friend to me and my husband. I would recommend Holly to anyone unconditionally.”
“We love our house! Thank you so much for making the buying and selling so manageable. Your professional expertise made the process so manageable. We can’t wait to welcome you as our guest.”
“We would absolutely recommend Holly! Holly is extremely knowledgeable about all aspects of the area. She was accommodating with our very busy schedules and really listened to what we were looking for as home buyers. Interpersonally, Holly is an absolute pleasure. She is the consummate professional and went above and beyond our expectations.”
“Our experience buying a home through Holly Mellstrom was exceptional. Holly's keen experience and knowledge of the market was truly invaluable. She has a unique business savvy that came through for us, and made what could have been a difficult sale a win-win for all. We love our new home and have Holly to thank for making the deal happen!"
“What I do regret is that I won't be able to thank you in person and give you a big hug for all you've done. You made the deal happen, first sensing the buyers' desire and then bringing them to a point where we could negotiate and come to an agreement. We did get lucky, too, but there was a lot of hard work and many headaches along the way and you got it done without any drama or fuss. I also appreciate the way you worked with Judy, Sylvia, Esther and Debbie. This was essential because I had to manage the house maintenance and sale from afar and relied on everyone's cooperation to get this done. We all worked very well together, and I am so grateful for that. I hope you will have other opportunities to collaborate with “Attention To Detail” in the future, as these ladies are marvels. Once the closing is done, I plan to write a letter to at Sotheby's expressing my complete satisfaction with your professionalism and diplomacy. You are a very skilled broker, Holly! I'm so glad I had your guidance along the way and wish you continued success and happiness for year to come.”
We had a wonderful experience working with Holly. She is extremely knowledgeable, prepared and persistent. She earned our trust quickly and provided us with excellent advice and counsel. We feel lucky to have found Holly and highly recommend her."
“Holly, thank you for making our move such a success! You are a fabulous broker and we knew we made the right decision."
“Mona and I want to personally thank you for your personal attention in helping us sell our house. This was our first time as sellers, and made it easy and relatively painless. You were patient with all of our questions prior to the closing and we really appreciate what you did for us. You are an outstanding realtor and a really nice person. We were lucky to have you.”
“Maureen and I want to thank you for all your hard work to sell our house. We would not hesitate to recommend you as a conscientious, skilled, dedicated professional to anyone seeking an effective Pelham Realtor.”
“It has been a pleasure working with you and getting to know you. I’ve told everyone about the helpfulness, support and professionalism that we have experienced from day one. Your caring, energy, integrity, and knowledge made it all finally happen. You are truly superb at what you do.”
“Holly was incredible. Helpful with everything possible. So knowledgeable, friendly, and after we moved she continued to help us acclimate. She was just so helpful throughout the whole process. Her advice was priceless.”
"Holly is the best; we were beyond impressed with her marketing, pricing, and staging. She is kind, unflappable, and flexible. We recommend her unconditionally to anyone looking to sell their house."
“Holly is a great listing agent!!!!”
“Holly is a fantastic, dependable, and caring realtor. I highly recommend her. She has gone above and beyond to help us find a house that meets our needs, introduce us to neighbors, show us around the town, and answer any crazy question we may have.”Jeliffe Family BUYER 122 Corlies Avenue Pelham NY
Holly is a great Listing Agent. She makes excellent recommendations regarding pricing and has great follow-up to make sure the tasks get done and the deal gets to closing.”Joseph Janos SELLER 137 Second Avenue Pelham NY
“My wife and I had the distinct pleasure of working with Holly Mellstrom while buying selling 3 Pelham properties. Holly negotiated our interests as seller and also as buyer on the next property. She even found an apartment for my elderly parents the next year when we called her again. She always listened to our concerns and made a normally stressful situation much smoother.”
“Holly was an absolute pleasure to work with. She is professional, organized, and caring. She is helpful, friendly and genuine. Her marketing approach was comfortable and solid. We had a signed contract within a month of the first open house despite a slow-moving, depressed real estate environment. We would wholeheartedly recommend Holly.”
“Holly is extremely dedicated, tireless, discreet and professional. She has an MBA, and it is obvious in her approach, versus other agents." Judy Shampanier and Michael Bowen BUYER AND SELLER 263 Pelhamdale Pelham NY
"Holly is intelligent, possesses a vast knowledge of the real estate business. She is friendly and patient. One piece of advice she had given me when we put the house up for sale was to remove the clutter—it worked! I have since stuck to her excellent advice." John and Ida Van Lindt SELLER 261 Highbrook Pelham NY
“Holly made an insurmountable task a lot easier. She had referrals for workmen, ideas on how to stage the house and was always cheerful. Holly kept us going as we cleared out and cleaned up the house to get it on the market. Best of all--we had three offers in two days!"
"Holly's professionalism is impeccable. We remained in constant contact through text, email, voice throughout. Her reply was always immediate, whether it be a holiday or in the middle of night. I believe communication with your agent is key and vital when selling and buying a home. I highly recommend Holly Mellstrom!!" Lia Herlihy SELLER 430 Carol Place Pelham NY
“You are truly the best real estate agent in Pelham and both Dominic and I feel very lucky to have met you. We are also hoping to give your name to a few friends once they are ready to move out to the burbs. I have plenty of friends who I expect will look to move in the coming 5 years. Thanks again for everything.”Dominic Stobart BUYER and SELLER 29 Suburban Avenue Pelham, NY
