Why You Need A Buyer Specialist

Why You Need a Buyer Specialist

What is a “Buyer Specialist” vs. a Traditional “Buyer’s Agent”?  

Experience the Difference with a Buyer Specialist

  • When you’re navigating the complex journey of buying a home, the guidance and expertise you receive can make all the difference. That’s where a buyer specialist comes in. Unlike a general buyer’s agent who may divide their time between representing buyers and sellers, a buyer specialist focuses exclusively on your needs as a homebuyer. This distinction is crucial, our specialists are entirely dedicated to advocating for your best interests.

Experience the Difference with a Buyer Specialist Undivided Attention and Unwavering Loyalty

  • Our buyer specialists are committed to providing you with undivided attention and loyalty throughout the home-buying process. By working solely with buyers, they eliminate any potential conflicts of interest that might arise if they were also listing properties. This focused approach allows them to concentrate fully on finding the perfect home for you, negotiating the best possible terms, and guiding you through every step of the transaction. With our team, you can be confident that your goals are our top priority, and that every decision we make is in your best interest.

Everyone on the Marchesiello was great. Trista walked me through making the offer designed to secure the purchase. Once it was accepted she continued to communicate and Madyson stepped in with the perfect amount of information support and communication during what can be a stressful time, they were great always accessible and responsive. I highly recommend this team!

We truly appreciated the ease is which we were able to find a house and feel confident the whole way. Trista was supportive, quick to reply and ready to answer all the questions. She made the process of buying a home while living in another country simple. Lauren also assisted in making sure we were move in ready. We can't thank them enough and are excited to begin new adventures, make memories and settle into our new home.

Trista Pollack is the best!! My wife and I just moved to the area from Southern California and Trista was amazing start to finish. We began talking 7 months before we moved and it was clear from our first phone call that she truly cares about her clients and you are not just another transaction. She genuinely gets to know you and your situation and quickly builds trust and assures you that she will find you a home. She also recommended us a great lender since the original one we had been using was underwhelming; it's clear that she surrounds herself with all stars. Since we had never been to the area before, we planned a week long trip for house hunting and Trista was phenomenal with setting up appointments with us and recommending things to do in the area... I cannot recommend Trista enough and I will undoubtedly go with her again when we sell the home in the future.

Tristin was by far the best agent we have ever worked with. She was responsive, helpful and a great negotiator. She helped guide us through every step of the buying process and inspection. The other team members supporting Tristin were also helpful and responsive. We would definitely use the Marchesiello team again!

Tristin and the entire Marchesiello team were a pleasure to work with. Tristin in particular really showed a lot of patience and helped guide us through a process that is not very fun at times. Above all else she was down to earth and very kind. If for some crazy reason we ever wanted to move again, we’d call Tristin.

What an amazing experience from start to finish, this team was so professional. We did a virtual showing on November 9th and closed by December 10th. I decided to use their suggested partners for each step of the way, and can see why they chose them as a partner, one was better than the next. I highly recommend this team for all of your home buying & home selling experiences. I am one happy customer.

My husband and I recently sold our home and purchased a new one with the help of The Marchesiello Team. Since we were both buying and selling, we were lucky to work with the whole crew, as their realtors smartly focus and specialize on either the purchasing side or selling side. From the first step to the last, The Marchesiello Team made an incredibly emotional, and often difficult process, smooth and largely pain-free. The team as a whole was organized, hard-working, communicative, and ALWAYS available if we had any questions or concerns. On the sales side, Dominick Marchesiello, Bobby Saumell, and Paige Carlquist, prepared us for each step of the process, advised us on how best to present and stage our home for listing, and ultimately negotiated a deal that was well OVER the asking price! On the purchasing side, Trista Pollack, Tristin Spencer, and Madyson Filion, listened to what we were looking for, were unbelievably patient as we worked to find a home that not only had our non-negotiables, but also felt right for our family, and were fierce negotiators in getting us a deal that was UNDER the asking price! We truly could not have asked for a better team to work with. Their expertise and experience really shone through as we navigated a difficult market with low inventory and high interest rates. Their guidance was spot on, and their knowledge of the market, pricing, marketing, neighborhoods, home values, etc. is clearly superb. We're so grateful to have worked with The Marchesiello Team, and we'd work with them again in a heartbeat.

The Marchesiello Team was a pleasure to work with. Dawn helped us buy our dream home and Bobby helped us sell our family home. They were both very thorough and thoughtful with both of the processes. Bobby gave us great advice and tips to get our home ready to sell and kept us informed throughout the process. Dawn stayed late for the open house for dream home so we could see it and helped us with putting in our offer as well helping with whatever was needed along the way. We would highly recommend the Marchesiello team to anyone looking to buy or sell a home.
