Amazing Success Stories

“We had a fantastic experience working with Barrie Krefetz and the Scout Residential team. Barrie helped my parents find the perfect rental in a tight time frame. From start to finish she navigated every step with knowledge and ease and we would highly recommend her!”

“I have been looking for the right house for months before I was introduced to Denise Bass and Lindsey Rosen. I was very particular with the area where I wanted the house, mostly focusing on the north shore of Long Island, Roslyn/East hills area. After seeing multiple houses with different agents, i was never quite satisfied with what i was offered for the price I was willing to pay. And thats where Denise and Lindsey came into play. They started sending me listings that were very much what I was looking for. After seeing a few listings with them, I was able to find my perfect house in the Roslyn Heights/East hills area. Denise and Lindsey were knowledgeable in the area, and made sure I was familiar with everything the listing has to offer even before seeing it. Very highly recommend them if you are looking for that dream home. Been living in the area for about 5 months now. Truly nothing negative to say about the whole experience. Thank you girls. :)”

“After searching for a home on Long Island for nearly three years with no luck, we approached Denise Bass to ask her to take over our search. Denise immediately looped in her colleague, Melanie Cogan, and together they found our dream home after only a few weeks of working together. Denise spent a great deal of time learning about our tastes and needs, and the options she presented to us were carefully tailored to those considerations - even in a very challenging market with very low inventory. She also helped us to envision the hidden potential of each house we toured together, and encouraged us to consider houses that did not immediately appeal to us. As a result, we wound up finding a spectacular house that we would not have even gone to see without Denise’s guidance. When it came time to negotiate the purchase, Denise helped us to craft a compelling offer based on both the market comps and her extensive experience, and vigorously represented us in subsequent negotiations to help us get the best possible price. Finally, once our offer was accepted, Denise connected us with a spectacular home inspector and a wonderful real estate attorney, and guided us through a lengthy and complex closing process with ease. The home Denise and Melanie ultimately found for us could not be more perfect for our growing family, and we are so grateful that we turned to their team for our search.”

“Robyn was invaluable when we needed to find a rental in East Hills, NY. We renovated our house and wanted to stay as close as we could to the project. Robyn found us a house rental within a tight time frame that was walking distance from my sons school and close to our construction site. She helped to negotiate the lease with a difficult landlord and helped us to secure the property despite other bidders. She was clearly more engaged and motivated than the competing realtor. I have know Robyn for almost 15 years and she always gives her full attention and best advice in professional and private situations. I am lucky to have her as a friend and will continue to recommend her to friends and family who need a real estate professional.”

“Lindsey Rosen with Scout Residential an amazing real estate agent and person. She is honest, knowledgeable, intelligent and is a genuine and kind person - all qualities which are hard to find in a broker in NY. I highly recommend working with her - whether you are looking to buy, sell or rent in Long Island!”

“My husband and I had an amazing experience working with Kasia Cielepak. We weren't sure if we wanted to buy a house or a condo and Kasia was very knowledgeable about both options and helped lead us in the right direction. We had been looking in Syosset, and Kasia was very familiar with the area and gave us so much insight about the location we really wanted to be in. She listened to all of our wants and needs and answered every single one of our questions with knowledge and care. I would absolutely use Kasia and The Scout Residential team in the future.”

“We had a fantastic experience working with our realtor, Vicki Olman. We found her professional, knowledgeable and dedicated to helping us house hunting in North Shore LI. She took time to provide the property details and explained the potential renovation plan if needed. She also ensured that we knew any possible risks associated with purchasing a particular property. We highly recommend Vicki Olman/Compass The Scout Residential Team to be your next realtor choice. From Jimmy and Nancy Loh”
