At a time when the market was very bad, and during the absolute worst time of year to sell a home- right before Christmas- Al gave us invaluable advice about how to stage our home, and his efforts brought a huge amount of traffic to the home. Thanks to Al, we had an offer days after putting our home on the market, and we accepted the offer, which was very close to our asking price. Al was also invaluable in providing advice every step of the way.

If I had a close friend putting their home on the market, its not just that I would recommend Al: I would tell them it would be a serious mistake to use anyone else.

In recently selling our house in Ridgewood, New Jersey, we were extremely fortunate in finding Al Donohue as our Realtor.Al has been a real pleasure to work with. Not only is he a consummate professional, but he went out of his way to make what is usually a painful process quite the reverse. He is industrious, knows his business, innovative, totally honest, and keeps you fully informed. I can’t imagine that anyone does it better than Al does. On top of all this he has a great sense of humor !!!

Al gave us great advice in how to prepare our home for sale and as a result the house sold in 17 days for the price we wanted…what more can you ask?

We would be more than happy to provide more information and to verify the above in person or by telephone.

This is one recommendation for which we can be totally honest…..Al is a great guy who does his job just the way it should be done……a true professional.

Al Donohue is truly the role model for all real estate agents. Al genuinely cares for the clients he works for and cares for the community. Whether you are selling your house or buying a house, I would not want any other agent working for me. Al is an expert in  the community and prepared an honest and realistic approach when it came to pricing our house for sale, as well as giving sound advice throughout the entire process knowing what was in our best interest.

Our personal experience with Al started with a visit to our home to explain in detail every aspect of his services; Al viewed the house to give an accurate assessment of the property, and gave an honest price range that the house would probably sell for. This part of the service is crucial, too many agents tell their customers what they want to hear, and it is not always in the client’s ultimate best interest. Al has the best marketing plan I have ever seen, and I have worked with many agents in the past.

Al gave recommendations to prepare the house for sale and set the date.

After one open house, and one agent tour, we had an offer on the house. Al set the pace for the marketing and selling price, which was right on the mark. This is what you want in an agent, who truly has your best interest in mind.

If you are looking for the full package with an honest approach and excellent communication, then Al Donohue is, in my opinion the most qualified agent in Bergen County.

“Let me just start by saying…the only realtor you should use to sell your house is Al Donohue. We want to take him with us to our new location so that when we sell there, he could be our agent. Now let me tell you why we think Al is unsurpassable as a seller’s agent.

Process: Al took us through the process of getting our home on the market - pricing, timing, marketing approach, preparation and staging with efficiency, professionalism, empathy and thoroughness beyond any realtor we have ever done business with. Al far exceeded our expectations and left no stone unturned.

Tools: Al applies technology to the greatest advantage of his clients. From his well designed websites, to his leveraging of wireless communications, to his internet statistics which give you a real time update of how many people are looking at your home via his website. With Al’s use of technology nothing is overlooked and you get maximum exposure to the right buyer which is critical in the current market state.

Results: He sold our house in a “buyers” market in 3 days for well over asking price. The asking price he suggested and we agreed to was above what we originally thought the market would warrant but Al’s expertise and savvy educated us and proved to be right on target.

Al Donohue is everything his marketing literature advertises. He instills confidence, integrity, expertise, honesty and sold our house in a difficult market in what we considered record time. Thanks Al.
