I have made some really unfortunate mistakes, but choosing Affordable Realty Services was one of the best decisions I've ever made. I cannot begin to express how grateful I am that we chose Joe to help us sell our home. Joe and his wife, Beverly, make a phenomenal team. The entire home selling/buying process is overwhelming, but Joe and Beverly dampened the stress by always ensuring deadlines were met, communicating updates, and following through on everything they said they would. I never doubted for a moment that something would slip through the cracks, and I have never had a smoother business

Very good agency to list your home with. Joe Schifani sat down with us to explain all aspects of listing your property, market analysis, expectations, fees, and entire process to get our home sold. Their agency is never pushy or impatient in the process. We listed our home at the time slightly over market as we went above & beyond preparing the home for sale with brand new carpet & many details that mist homeowners do not do! We were patient and sold the home! Joe Schifani advised us on offers and were very pleased after closing. We will use Affordable Realty again on our next home we are selling
