This was my first time buying a home and I would have been able to do it without the help and support of Sharyn. Sharyn guided me every step of the way by providing knowledge, support and guidance in all areas of the purchasing process. She knows the area very well and answered all my questions. Sharyn goes above and beyond to make a personal connection. This is not just a job for Sharyn, it's truly a passion. I was very lucky to have Sharyn during this process.

Sharyn is a pleasure to work with. She took me to see many homes and was always on time, and is always happy to be showing and selling homes. We ultimately decided not to buy in the area.

We loved working with Sharyn. She worked hard to find us a home that suits us perfectly, and on our budget that was hard to do. She never minded spending her weekends going from house to house with us. Personable and upbeat but shrewed and decisive where it matters for her clients, she made the process enjoyable and pleasant. I trusted her wise advice and sought her input on most decisions. She went out her way to include my daughter in the process and made her feel special. She's even become a good friend of ours. For Columbia County real estate, there's no one I would recommend more than Sharyn!

I highly recommend Sharyn Richards Marks as the perfect real estate. She truly listens, quickly responds to every question and request and creativity finds real estate that fits your needs. She is friendly, makes you feel comfortable and is honest about if the property would work for your needs. Our needs were a bit challenging. . and she took that challenge on. When the sellers of the home we chose did not quite match what we were able to do, she went above and beyond what is expected of your regular realtor...she found temporary housing for us, our dogs and even our horses...so while we still search for our perfect forever home with her...we know ...

Sharyn was wonderful to work with! We were fairly unsure of what we were looking for in our first home purchase, and Sharyn was very helpful for us! She constantly put 'feelers' out and provided us with a lot of homes to look into. Sharyn always put our needs and desires first, and there was never any pressure to rush or spend more than we were comfortable. Working with Sharyn really helped to ease the confusing and challenging process for us. We are so thankful for her help and would strongly recommend her for anyone looking for home!

Sharyn was extremely helpful in our search, patient and particularly helpful providing local contacts to make the transition to the region smooth.

Sharyn Marks is the most knowledgeable & competent real estate agent that we have had the privilege of knowing. We highly recommend her services to any buyer or seller in the area. She knows her customer well and totally focuses on their wants & needs. She is also extremely pleasant to spend the day with. Bottom line she found us our dream home!

Sharyn helped me find my home and she couldn't have been more professional. I was very specific with my knees, and she accommodated them in every respect in showing me options without wasting time. Emails and phone calls were replied to promptly no matter the time or day. Before finding my home, we engaged in a bid for another property and while I was very interested in it, she was very helpful in making a delineation on the highest bid we should make. I appreciated her very positive attitude while also being pragmatic and looking out for my best interests. I couldn't recommend Sharyn more highly in your home search.

Sharyn Richards Marks was one of the most wonderful Real Estate Agents I have ever had the pleasure of working with. From the moment my partner and I met Sharyn, she understood our needs/wants in our second home and worked diligently to deliver properties that matched our criteria. No matter how silly the question or concern, Sharyn always made us feel comfortable and found the answers. She has a wealth of knowledge and if she doesn't know the answer - you can bet she knows someone that does! She was beyond patient when our mortgage company dropped the ball a few times regarding deadlines. Moving forward, there is no other agent I would work with. I...

Sharyn stuck with us through a long, difficult house search. We worked with her for five months, looked at about 30 properties, and made four offers. She is always available, returns calls and emails within a few minutes, and doesn't mind working early in the morning or late at night. Sharyn is a lifelong resident of Columbia County and knows the area, and other realtors, extremely well. Avoid the retired NYC transplant realtors who don't understand how important the relationship are in our market, or you'll miss the best properties. She also has strong relationships with local lenders, repair men, and other professionals in our area. Sharyn was hon...

Sharyn was great! Responsive, knowledgeable, sense of humor, stays-on-top- of what comes on the market daily. I recommend her wholeheartedly as she was one of the best realtors I have ever worked with. I think it must be her soul's work. She is honest, and never puts herself nor her commission over the needs of her clients. She is fun to work with and is just a great person overall!

Sharyn worked with us as if she was a family. She is sensitive to your needs and treats you with dignity and respect. She is honest as the day is long, you can trust her to deal with you honestly, competently, and candidly. We sincerely hope, if the opportunity arises, to work with her again.

I enlisted Sharyn's aid in finding a home a little more than 2 years ago. Despite many false starts, she really hung in there with us. I assured her that I was really looking and reassured me, saying that sometimes it takes a while to find the right fit. Sharyn was always positive and pleasant, despite my many requests to see homes in different neighborhoods. Sharyn has a lot of knowledge about the Hudson Valley and shared it with us graciously. I HIGHLY recommend Sharyn for her trustworthiness and pleasant demeanor. She saw us through to closing and now we are Hudsonites!

I recently used Sharyn to sell my first home. I am so thankful that a few of my friends recommended her. She took all the hassle out of the sale for me. It would have been a nightmare for me to sell this on my own due to scheduling and being unsure of the things that should be done prior to listing. Sharyn was there for me every step of the way with great recommendations to get the most of the sale. Once we went into contract she stayed on top of getting it closed as soon as possible. I can not thank her enough for making it such an easy process and am looking forward to working with her on my next home purchase! Highly recommend anyone looking for ...

Sharyn is absolutely wonderful to work with. She impressed us continually during our search for our home by going above and beyond our expectations. I love searching through listings so I made a list of homes that I was interested in and Sharyn quickly organized showings...mostly on Sundays and sometimes 8 in a day! She know many people locally and had excellent recommendations for services such as home inspectors, septic, attorneys, etc. I can't say enough great things about Sharyn, it was a pleasure to have her as a buyer's agent!

Thankfully Sharyn came along when she did. I had a difficult large parcel to sell. There needs to be a specific purchaser that is interested in agricultural property. Not only did Sharyn bring in a buyer, she handled the communication and transaction with charisma and poise. Sharyn always replied to every email, text or call within hours. I was never left waiting for an answer to a question or an update. If I'm ever in the market again, Sharyn is the "go-to." Whether you are buying or selling, I'd recommend Sharyn on hundred percent. Thank you!

It is my pleasure to recommend the most professional, efficient and supportive Real Estate Professional that I have ever worked with or ever met. I personally have been through either the buying or selling process five times. Sharyn was professional at all times, yet she was able to lend emotional support to help our family during a very difficult time, as we sold our family's property and homes after family ownership for nearly 100 years. Sharyn was able to deal with different personalities within our family and continue to give support while selling the property which had many challenges of its own. Sharyn was always available to talk, text or ema...

Sharyn was wonderful to work with when I was ready to sell my house. She did a great a job explaining things and was very transparent. When I was already to list my house with her, she had all the paperwork pre-filled and was very patient reviewing it with me before I signed. When we didn't see the activity we wanted timely enough, she came up with a strategy of staging my empty house with edited photos and we saw activity spike immediately. Within a couple of weeks we had a lot of interest and an offer that I expected. Sharyn was up a pleasure to work with. She is very knowledgeable and has a lot of experience. I would recommend her to anybody who ...

We were very pleased with our agent, Sharyn Marks, during the preparation, listing, sale and closing of our house. She understood the difficulties we faced with leaving our home of 43 years and helped us every step of the way. Her advice was always appreciated and helped us see through a buyer's eyes so we could eliminate the unnecessary items and show our home at it's very best. Sharyn was always available for questions and arranged the showings in ways that were good for both buyer and seller. She also spent many hours as go-between making phone calls and sending messages to help see the sale through to the final day of closing. She is the best!

With deep roots in Columbia County, Sharyn knows the market, home values, and what sellers need to do to get the best deal. Thanks to her we went into contract within 48 hours of Sharyn's listing our home. She attracted a cash buyer, helped us negotiate an above asking selling price and other provisions we needed to accommodate our situation. She hit a grand slam home run! Above that, her constant contact and open, quick communication kept us apprised of every step. She is an outstanding professional, very personable, and someone who we are now, given this outstanding experience, proud to say Sharyn is a valued friend. Highly recommend!

I was so fortunate to have Sharyn represent me when selling my home in Old Chatham. A realtor friend of mine from Colorado, interviewed a hand full of local realtors near me and said Sharyn was by far the best she had spoken to, so I contracted with her and TKG Group. Sharyn moved mountains when representing me. She always went above-and-beyond what I had experienced from others in the past. She is kind, professional, available, responsive, knowledgeable and was always there when I needed her or had questions. Her negotiation of the sale of my home was extraordinary and I received the best price! I highly recommend Sharyn for all those lucky enough ...

If we were able to choose 100 more stars for Sharyn, we would! Sharyn is one of the most genuine, detail oriented, professional Real Estate professionals that we have ever worked with. We first met Sharyn about six years ago on our search for a weekend home. She found us the perfect home for us at that time and the experience that Sharyn provided was so easy and so positive, we've stayed in touch all of these years! We decided to sell that home to look for another one and of course went directly to Sharyn, as we trust her implicitly. Once again Sharyn was attentive, responsive, listened to our needs and concerns, and guided us in making the sale the...

We have known Sharyn for over 30 years, when we decided to put our house on the market, there is no one else we could have called. Sharyn helped us sell our home of 26 years, we were nervous about the process as it was the first home we have sold. Sharyn walked us thru and kept in constant contact with us thru the whole process. We highly recommend Sharyn if you are selling your home!

I first contacted Janet Kain in June 2019 regarding multi-family properties in Hudson, NY. Janet responded promptly and went above and beyond over the next month to answer all my questions, sending properties that fit our budget and needs. Janet worked with me beforehand to refine the list and had all the showings lined up for a full, intense day of hunting. We settled on a great multi-family on Warren Street with all the tenants in place. Janet went above and beyond to see the sale through to the end. Even after the sale, she is still there as a resource. So happy to have worked with her!

Thanks to Janet Kain, we found our dream home. Thanks to Janet's tenacity, thoroughness, and thoughtfulness, the entire process from start to finish was a breeze. We can't thank her enough!

Janet Kain is a superior real estate agent. She took on our property with great enthusiasm, hired a photographer to take professional photos, and had prospective buyers coming to our house immediately. As she told us: "Relax and sit back. You are working with a professional. Wait or the offers to come in." And she was right. Janet has great attention to detail, is super responsive, and was there for us 100 percent until the deal was done.

Janet was an essential resource in every way in selling our house, which had sate on the market for 5 years before she listed it. She remained innovative throughout the process in trying to realize the most marketable approach. Ultimately, her communication proved to be the key to our success as she enabled a perfect flow of information through both parties of the transaction, as well as numerous other parties in the transaction that became involved once we had a contract. It required extreme coordination among lawyers, inspectors, repairmen, movers, and other service providers. It all comes down to being detail-oriented and motivated. Janet has all...

I met Janet when she was the exclusive listing agent for a property in Ancram. I quickly realized her acumen for real estate and design, as well as her extensive knowledge of the Hudson Valley. She has lived there for more than 30 years. I engaged her in my home search and couldn't be happier with the results. She showed me multiple properties over 2 days, and I had an accepted offer by day 3! She works tirelessly for her clients and has a vast network of service and tradespeople that she shares. Her level of effort tis consistently high at all stages of the process, all the way to closing. Whether you are buying or selling, I highly recommend Janet!

My wife and I recently relocated to Hudson, NY. We began our search for a new home on Zillow and after clicking on a listing were immediately contacted by an agent named Janet Kain. We had little idea at the time what a fortunate event this would be for us. Over the next several weeks Janet would become our indispensable ally, working tirelessly on our behalf. She helped us set a strategy to be successful in light of our unique circumstances and willingly pivoted to a new strategy when these changed. When the house of our dreams became available, Janet conducted a FaceTime showing and facilitated an offer when we could not be there in person. Were w...

We were looking to buy a home in the Hudson Valley. Janet showed us several properties and eventually the beautiful home that we purchased. She is incredibly knowledgeable about real estate and related issues and was very helpful to us at every step. She also recommended a local attorney, inspectors, contractors, and housing professionals, and gave us many tips about local area resources and attractions. All of the people she recommended have been excellent. Janet is one of the most responsive professionals I have ever met she got back to us very quickly with every query. She is also a very personable and caring individual. You will not be disappoin...

I recently worked with Marty Salerno and was extremely impressed by him. He was very knowledgeable of the market and is overall a polite and super friendly guy. I had a lot of specifics for my apartment and he made a great effort to find exactly what I was looking for. After checking the listings every morning he would call me to let me know if anything new came out that matched what I was looking for and he was very acommodating to my time constraints when it came time to actually look at places. Marty is a great guy and I will definitely be using him again the next time I am looking for a place!

Martin Salerno was very helpful throughout our process of renting a house. He was very knowledgeable on everything! Martin guided us through every step and made himself available to answer any questions we needed clarified and responded back within no time. He also gave great advice and has great negotiation skill. I highly recommend using Martin as your agent!

My experience of working with Martin Salerno has been positive and a true pleasure during the entire process. As I connected with Marty during the decision making phase of where to look for properties he helped me identify different areas that were of interest to me. I was pretty clear on what I was looking for from an aesthetic standpoint and he understood right away what places to show me without ever pressuring me into a direction that wouldn’t work for me either aesthetically, financially or from a location standpoint. As a result the search was focused and overall a quick and stress free process. After my offer was accepted Marty helped me thro...

I had a great experience with Martin. He is organized, proactive, and a pleasure to work with. Marty cares a lot about the client and is very professional and trustworthy. I would highly recommend him.

My husband and I are in the process of buying our first home in Catskill and have been looking off and on in the Hudson Valley for about a year. We were pretty green at first/our budget wasn’t huge and although we met other realtors, often times we were not taken seriously. Luckily we met Martin Salerno who is an anomaly and an absolute pleasure to work with. Cannot say enough great things about him! He is professional, thoughtful, a strong negotiator, knowledgeable about the market/area, and is just an awesome person to collaborate with. He genuinely believed in our vision, adding to our sense of excitement and confidence in what can be a daunting ...

As first-time homebuyers, Martin was an incredibly helpful partner throughout the process. The property we bought had some complications, and Martin advocated strongly on behalf of the interests of my wife and I. He was always on the ball, making sure that everyone from our bank, lawyer, and contractors were acting quickly for us as well. We quickly found out that he was an excellent communicator that took the time to listen to us, and effectively relayed to everyone exactly what we wanted. He also some great advise to give, and is so detail-oriented that he brought to our attention a couple instances where my wife and I could receive credit off the...

Martin was a pleasure to work with. I am new to the area so he was very caring and extremely helpful and a great person to spend the day with! I would highly recommend Martin as he has the knowledge of the area and the people skills to make the whole thing actually enjoyable.

Martin was great. Attentive and insanely knowledgable. He took the time to show me around Catskill and Hudson. He was really great at being able to understand the type of house I was looking for and to show me things I would not have found on my own. Highly recommended.

Marty is very knowledgeable about the neighborhood and surrounding areas, and had answers to ALL my questions. I felt that he really cared for me as his client and wasn't just trying to "make the sale." He is prompt with emails and calls, and he showed me a few places that fit all the right criteria within my price range. I would highly recommend him and will definitely be working with him in the future when I'm ready to buy!

Martin helped us with a Columbia County rental. The first place he showed us was perfect and he helped us to secure the best price. He was also very helpful on educating us about all the area has to offer. Highly recommend working with him for your own real estate needs.

Marty was incredibly responsive. In the fast paced world of real estate, responsiveness is key. Knowledge of outside aspects of home buying and inside don't always go hand in hand, but Marty has vision, which most home buyers need direction with.Helpful, knowledgeable and responsive. Great experience.

Meticulous, strategic, and open-minded, Marty steered us through a high volume of options very efficiently and when the time came to negotiate, he was fair, honest, and very effective. Great sense of humor, and value-oriented. Highly recommended.

Martin Salerno is an extremely impressive real estate professional. His knowledge of the towns, properties, people (and even the history) of Columbia County is encyclopedic and his relationships with other brokers are superb. His ability to convey pertinent information and data is matched by his ability to listen: he was able to show us more that a dozen properties - that met ALL of our criteria - in a very short period of time (sometimes by using his great relationships to get fellow agents to show us their listings at inconvenient times and on very short notice) and ultimately was a very effective negotiator in getting us to an accepted offer on t...

We didn't find Marty; he found us. We couldn't be happier! From the very first meeting, he felt like an old friend who would look out for our interests. He has a wealth of knowledge about the popular Hudson, NY area we are buying into...from the best eating establishments to the best contractors. It has been a true pleasure to work with Marty who made the purchase of our home totally painless. We have already recommended him to another friend who is looking for a second home in Hudson.

When I had to put my house in Hillsdale up for rent, I turned to Martin Salerno, who was recommended to me by close friends. The whole process couldn't have been easier. He guided me through all the pros and cons, was honest about the expectations I had, and answered all the questions I had very clearly. He found renters within two weeks and was able to negotiate a deal that I was very happy with. His follow-up was swift and to the point. I would highly recommend him.

Marty is awesome! We have been working with Marty on our first home purchase and he's been above and beyond helpful he's professional, honest, and knows a lot of great info about the area, and when all is said and done we feel we will have a new home and a new friend!

Marty is the best real estate agent I have dealt with over the years. He is knowledgeable, reliable, and very friendly. He goes above and beyond to find you the perfect house for your budget. He always answers your questions and is extremely professional and courteous. I had a very good experience with Marty!

Working with Marty was a pleasure from start to finish. He's more than attentive and goes out of his way to help you in every step of the process. I was blown away by his attention to detail and follow-up/follow-through with me. All of this combined took out much of the home-selling stress that you normally feel when you're listing your home. I could not be any happier!

Martin Salerno is the ultimate BEST! Starting this process as a first time home-owner, I was nervous/did not know what to expect. From the very beginning of interacting with Marty, I felt as if I was talking to a friend. He was patient in listening to my husband and my concerns/wants/needs. Being it was our first time buying a house, we obviously had many questions. Marty went above and beyond with his answers- while also educating us on each and every process along the way. He helped us get our dream house and we cannot thank him enough! I can't wait until my other friends are looking to purchase their next home because we have the perfect person...

Martin was a great help In helping find my first home. Although I decided to not buy a home he was there with me through the whole process. He was very kind and friendly and always looking to get me the best bang for my buck. He has much knowledge of the entire New York realty landscape and can swiftly guide you through the entire (sometimes grueling) home buying process. I would recommend Martin if looking to buy a home....thank you again Martin!
