A typical home inspection takes between 2 to 4 hours. It's a good idea to be present to ask questions as you move through the house with the inspector.

Testimonials

"Working with Ronit was a breeze. She priced our apartment perfectly and we had offers within a couple of weeks. We were even able to get our asking price, a remarkable feat given the current economic climate. All throughout the process, Ronit struck the perfect balance between down-to earth friendliness and polished professionalism. Putting a house on the market while I was seven months pregnant, working full time and raising a two-year-old sounded like a nightmare scenario when my husband and I were first considering it, but Ronit made the whole thing feel effortless. We counted ourselves really lucky to have had her as our agent."

"Ronit was absolutely wonderful to work with. She made sure every detail was taken care of, and prepared us for the process thoroughly. The photos showed off our home beautifully-- but that was just one aspect of the terrific treatment she gave us. We thought we could market it ourselves, but we completely underestimated the amount of work and skill necessary. Ronit handled everything with such expertise; it was very clear why we needed a professional. Our home sold in just six weeks, for an excellent price. We could never have accomplished that by ourselves."

"I wish I had another property to sell so that I could work with Ronit again. Ronit is a true professional and an expert on the market and pricing.

Her help made all the difference. “My advice to sellers in Brooklyn is simple: 1) Hire Ronit Abraham, 2) Do whatever she tells you to do to get your place ready 3) Watch it sell for significantly more than the asking price."

"Selling your home is a daunting experience. Selling the home of a deceased family member in an estate sale is even more so. It is an incredibly challenging process that one should not engage in without hiring properly experienced professionals. Fortunately for me I enjoyed the benefit of working with a real estate professional. Ronit Abraham, Broker Compass. Ronit has a firm understanding of the market conditions, the process, and the real estate industry. She provided timely and insightful information along the journey. She understood what it would take to empty, update, show and sell a two- family home with a finished nightclub basement that had been occupied and furnished by the previous owner for more than 50 years. Ronit has a keen eye for value and hidden gems. She listened to and addressed my concerns, made recommendations, and provided resources throughout the journey. She listened, examined, priced, negotiated and listed. Ronit sold the home for the full asking price. Ronit was professional, knowledgeable, patient, understanding, friendly, courteous, and flexible. She provided excellent service from pre-listing through closing. Well done! Thank you."

"I met Ronit last year when she sold a townhouse on my block. She sold the townhouse within 18 days for over asking price. I hired Ronit and she quickly photographed, and began marketing the home ASAP. Ronit was able to get our brownstone on all the important media outlets which drove more buyers to our open house. We had to sell our house with a tenant in place which made things a little complicated but Ronit acted respectfully with the tenant and made sure everyone felt taken care of. She was respectful of our tenants time and home and communicated with everyone so that we knew what was going on at each stage of the transaction. I’m really lucky I found her. She knows the market really well and priced our house to sell. You can trust that she is giving you the best, most up to date and expert advice when is comes to pricing. She communicated with us regularly which I especially appreciated since I’m very hands on myself. I wholly recommend Ronit for all your real estate needs. She’s hardworking, genuine and cares about the person more than the deal."

"My situation with an estate was very complex to include an eviction proceeding. In addition, I live out of state. This was a three year process and Ronit was instrumental part of the resolution. She did a fabulous job as far as listing the residence and showing it and handling the tenant who made things even harder. Ronit always remained calm, polite and professional. She even did things above and beyond. For instance, going to the property when she did not have to due to a water line break, finding companies to clean the property and remained at the property during the entire time and constantly updating me with various things. If you are looking for an outstanding professional use Ronit as your Realtor! You will not be disappointed! I cannot thank her enough!"
