Mary Ellen has been extremely important in our search. Infinite patience with us, even at the hardest moments where confidence of finding something at a very competitive neighborhood was low. I 100% recommend her.
Mary Ellen Byrne hit a “first pitch home-run” for me. The sale of my home was a very personal thing for me. Mary Ellen has been my neighbor since I moved in 26 years ago. In that time I grew to know her as a calm, caring, intellectual individual. I also felt she “knew the ins and outs of Rye.” So I asked her to represent me…from among several lovely, well-qualified, well-intentioned people. Mary Ellen procured our buyer instantaneously. When roadblocks appeared, she skillfully intervened to help us successfully navigate them. We closed on schedule. I could not be happier! Sincerely, Robert S. Draper
Mary Ellen Byrne is a delight to work with. During the 2021 hot housing frenzy, Mary Ellen's years of experience, marketplace knowledge, calm demeanor and sense of humor helped ease my home selling & buying process. Mary Ellen's collaborative style and counsel helped us identify the "sweet spot" for our home sale price and target an appealing offer for the new home. The "old" house and the "new" closed within a week of each other. Thanks Mary Ellen for everything you did along the way to make this journey a lot more pleasurable!
Efficient and friendly and knew market extremely well. Found what we wanted and ensured negotiations progressed smoothly. John
