My husband and I recently purchased a beautiful home with the expertise help from Joyce and Elena. So much time was devoted to showing us the area, many homes visited until we found just what we wanted. This real estate experience was by far the best we have ever had. True professionals and warm people. Looking forward to keeping in touch with our new neighbors!
We cannot thank you enough for all your hard work, creativity and kindness.
We felt compelled to send you a note to thank you for the outstanding job you did in listing and selling our home. Given how complicated and emotionally charged the process was, having a team with your experience, intelligence and professionalism at our side throughout was invaluable. Also, getting our expected price and within our time frame in such a difficult market, speaks for itself in terms of getting results. We saw firsthand how much attention to detail and daily initiative the listing and sale took. We cannot thank you the team enough for all your hard work, creativity and kindness.

Impressed by their poise and professionalism
Elena and Joyce are extremely hardworking, consummate professionals. They do a phenomenal job marketing your property. Its a super competitive a world out there. Elena, Joyce and her team work closely with you to strategically differentiate, gain attention and break through the clutter. During the likelihood of experiencing drama during the listing, negotiation and closing phases, I've been consistently impressed by their poise and professionalism. They are truly standouts and I can't recommend them enough.
Their online presence and creative & innovative approaches to marketing made such a difference in our selling experience.
Elena, Joyce, Ashley, and the whole team at Lucky to Live Here are wonderful. Their online presence and creative & innovative approaches to marketing made such a difference in our selling experience. We never for a second felt as if our house was going to just sit on some listing somewhere. There was no cookie cutter process. They truly thought about the best way to highlight our home. From the photo shoot to the drone footage to the last minute “Hey, what if we film an interview to talk about how special this home is” — the care with which they discussed our needs made it apparent from the start that we were in the best of hands. We highly recommend Lucky to Live Here.
And more importantly they truly care about their clients.

They were ALL positive, supportive, knowledgeable, and extremely professional every moment!
A sincere THANK YOU to Sari/Joyce/Amanda and the whole "Lucky to Live Here" team! It was a very difficult and emotional decision to move out of New York and place a stranger in the only home I've ever owned and was so proud of. The entire team made me feel beyond comforted and confident in every way throughout the process. They were ALL positive, supportive, knowledgeable, and extremely professional every moment! A wonderful experience!!!!
I can't wait to work with them again.
Laura Ambrosio and Jackie Stephens were instrumental in selling three of my investment properties. They were enthusiastic and well prepared, every time we met. Two of my properties had been previously listed, unsuccessfully, with other realtors, but Laura and Jackie managed to get them sold in short order. They also managed to sell a third property, quickly, at full price. I would highly recommend Laura and Jackie for any of your real estate needs, and I can't wait to work with them again.
It was wonderful to leave the house knowing that it was in good hands.
Elena & Joyce were both wonderful to work with during the sale of our home. It was wonderful to leave the house knowing that it was in good hands. No lock boxes, no unattended people walking through the house. One of them always accompanied other realtors while our home was being shown. They were responsive to our needs, & gave us more than adequate notice before each showing appointment. Also because we were not leaving the area right away, we needed to find a rental after we sold. Sari helped us find something that was within our price range and still close to old friends. The whole process was as un-stressful as something like this could ever be. 👍🏻😊
Seasoned team with thorough knowledge of their industry
I can only say positive things about Joyce and Elena , with Lucky to Live Here Realty. From the sale of our home,to the purchase of our new home , both Joyce and Elena displayed utmost professionalism at all times, coupled with endless energy and optimism all the while treating us like old friends. I highly recommend them as a well seasoned team with thorough knowledge of their industry.
