Seller Testimonial
Dear Lois,
You and John are great realtors. You obviously know the market and how to sell real estate. You gave us your opinion on how to fix things around the condo to get it sold quickly. The buyer actually mentioned that one of the things that drew her to buying the condo was the warm colors of the walls which you recommended. After seeing other condos on the market for months or a year, I was actually surprised ours got sold in within 2 months. You and John are also very personable and if I know of anyone who is either looking to buy or sell something around the area, I will recommend you. Thanks for all you did.

Marlene Kennedy,
Lois and John brought their ‘dream team’ skills to South Florida and my husband and I are so grateful they did! We are from New Jersey and enjoy spending time at our Condo in West Palm Beach. We recently decided we would love to spend more time in Florida but needed more space. Lois and John listened as we described our ideal community and showed us properties that checked all of our boxes and some that exceeded our expectations - all while staying within our budgeted range! Their full service approach as Agents included help in navigating all of the selling and buying process as well as a very generous certificate to Sklar’s (thank you very much !) to help with furnishing our new home. Thank you for continuing to do what you do so very well! We are so grateful to you both and look forward to becoming fellow Floridians at Valencia Grand in Boynton Beach.
Thank you
Marlene and Michael Kennedy

Dear Lois and John,
I appreciate all your help in selling my mom and dad’s home. Your marketing strategies, negotiation skills, and attention to detail made the process easy and lucrative for us, and we couldn’t be happier we chose you to list our property.
This is a testimonial from me, that you both went above and beyond my exceptions of what a realtor would do. You are true advocates with community obstacles. Your people skills are sharp, staging the home and getting things done to perfection. I’m planning to refer you to my friends, family, and colleagues who need real estate assistance in the future.
Thank you again for your hard work and expertise. You’re guys are rock stars!
Sincerely,
Francine Knight

You know that I can't say enough about all that you did for me. I knew after my conversation with you, that you were head and shoulders above any other realtor I had met. Not only were you familiar with all of the areas that I was looking at moving to; you knew the details of each building along with their amenities, transportation and shopping options and overall value. You listened to what I wanted, helped me noarrow down my choices and made sre that I got everything I asked for. And if that wasn't enough, you got me a better price than I could have ever imagined. I thanks you very much for all your hard work and I will be referring you to all of my friends!
Seller Testimonial:
We wholeheartedly recommend Lois to anyone seeking an agent and advisor. From the start the process, Lois gave us very practical advice about how to market our home and what we can expect from the process. She did a great job generating foot traffic and we saw immediate results. Most importantly we always felt Lois was one our side - a testament to this was the advice she gave us to turn down an early offer which she felt was too low (and turned out to be right).
Both Lois and her partner John (they make a great team) were always present at our showings and tried to work around our schedule - with two very smalls kids this was important. Her service was very personalized and we find that this sets her apart from other real estate agents in the area.
Finally, once we were ready to make an offer on our new home, Lois was critical in keeping the process moving forward, especially when it came to working with the banks and lawyers - this is very valuable in today's difficult market. We always appreciated her reassuring words - and they turned out to be true - we love our new home.
Thanks Lois.
Buyer Testimonial:
Mr. John Schwartz is the best real estate agent I've ever had. He understands the local market very well and knows details of each building of which I requested his opinion. That helped me a lot in my decisions. He's pumctual and efficient, always replying to my emails or phone calls very quickly. I like his ways of doing things. Thanks so much for the help in this transaction. As a duel agent you really were fair when negotiating between me and the seller.
Seller Testimonial:
Rosemary DeFranco: Our home in Lodi was listed with Lois Fein and John Schwartz of Prominent Properties and sold approximately within three months. What sets them apart from other realtors in addition to many other items is they offer professional photography and have the ability to stage your home with tasteful items that enhance your property. Also, they are involved in all aspects of the sale from the listing to closing so the sale will be a smooth transaction. I highly recommend their services.
It is miraculous to find a real estate agent, let alone a husband and wife team, who are able to listen, to grasp who you are and what you want; and who can study your home and advise you to make some minor changes that will freshen your home, highlight its attractive qualities so that prospective buyers will stop, look and think.
Lois and John are the magical duo. They are exciting personalities and were a pleasure to work with; they are deeply committed and work very hard to accomplish the objective. They are highly skilled salespeople, with an array of creative talents that is rare – ranging from staging the photography of the home, to decorating it; and they understand the psychology of the buyer and of the seller. When you meet them, you immediately feel that you are in the hands of highly competent professionals who are worthy of your trust.
I also appreciated the excitement they feel when you give them the opportunity to sell your home. One might expect veterans to be jaded after helping 500 previous clients sell or purchase a home. The opposite is true: what you get is a level of charm, enthusiasm and purpose that they must have expressed when they met their very first client. Lois and Jon love what they do!
And they found a wonderful couple who loved our home and purchased it.
We heartily recommend Lois and John as real estate agents who are at the very top of their profession.

Lois worked incredibly hard for our family and helped us sell our condo in a tough market. She was always present for showings, gave us great advice about staging and showing the home and became a good friend to us as well. She also spent hour (and hours) with us showing us homes in Northern NJ area and we found our new home throuh her as well. I would recommend Lois to anyone thinking about buying or selling in this area. She knows her business and is an absolute pleasure to work with.
Seller Testimonial:
We interviewed several realtors before selecting who we wanted to represent us and our home in The Bluff section of Fort Lee, NJ.. Lois and John were the only professionals who had a complete presentation, which included market values, a pricing strategy, a marketing strategy, and details on how they would be able to successfully execute their plan. Their professionalism and attention to detail impressed us throughout the entire process. They were always accessible, and went the extra mile when asked. I would highly recommend them, as they were highly effective, creative, and a pleasure to work with though out the transaction.

LSeller Testimonial:
ois and John are full service real estate professionals. My wife and I engaged Lois and John remotely as we live on the West Coast and our home was in New Jersey. We literally sold the property without once having to visit for cleaning, repairs, contractors, staging etc. Lois and John handled it all, and this was a particularly challenging sale. While the property is relatively new and beautiful, it did have what I refer to as construction deficiencies that needed to be attended too. Lois and John managed the entire process from identifying deficiencies, engaging various contractors and ensuring the work was completed to our satisfaction. They also directed staging, and spent a great deal of time at our home escorting contractors and vendors on the property.
We were thrilled with their service and highly recommend them to anyone needing to sell especially when there are special circumstances involved.

Dear Lois and John,
You have made the impossible possible! We decided to sell our condo in Edgewater in the worst possible declining market. The best thing we did was to contact you because you are true professionals in this field. Our listing was up in NJMLS within days, the pictures and the virtual tour really showed our condo in the best possible light and the marketing material was impeccable. You also worked closely with other brokers, attorneys and banks to make this deal happen. Thanks to you, we were able to sell our condo within a two month period and closed on the scheduled date with no issues. I will always recommend the "dream team" also known as Lois and John, to anyone.
Thank you so much.

Seller Testimonial:
We tried to sell our unit with another agent for months and could not. As a board member I thought selling our duplex condo would be easy, but was I wrong. Enter John and Lois. They were tough with us; but after an unbelievable make-over of our home (John spent almost a whole day) that included significant de-cluttering, hanging up of their borrowed art work, re-arranging furniture, repainting selected areas, and getting our home featured on an upcoming episode of NBC's Open House NYC, our home sold. When they told us the reason our home did not sell was due to ineffective marketing we were skeptical, but nothing else was working. The care and effort; the incredible photography that was taken and the sensational print material that was produced was the most professional we have ever seen.

Lois and John's knowledge and experience with the Legend Hills community is unmatched and were invaluable in helping us sell our home at a fair and reasonable price and within a short amount of time. They also did such an amazing job with staging that we barely even recognized our home! We couldn't be happier with the end results.

Seller Testimonial:
Dear Lois and John,
Thank you so very much for the help of selling our house. We couldn’t have done this without your help. Please share our testimonial with your prospective clients so that they may see what remarkable advisors you have been to us.
In this tough housing market, it is a daunting task to be able to move a product quickly. In our case, we needed to do it with lightning speed. This meant that we needed to choose the right agents for the marketing of our house and also strategically come to the right price to be able to generate maximum interest. If either of these factors were off, it could mean the death knell and we would’ve been stuck in the selling mode for months and months. With the counsel of Lois and John, we were able to price it correctly and achieve results immediately. Even though the marketing tools were beautiful, we didn’t even get a chance to use them. We received offers before our open house that following weekend and we accepted an offer that we were happy with, within less than a week. “How is that possible in this economy?” everyone asked. The answer: We were advised well by Lois Fein and John Schwartz.
Apart from the all-important pricing of the house, the next important would be the staging of the product. John was able to help stage our home maximizing the beauty and livability of it. It presented the right “stage” for a potential new home buyer to see their things in the house. The agents viewing the home before the open house were eager to call clients immediately and set up viewing appointments before the public got there. It was very exciting. Comments like: “What a gorgeous home” and “This will get snatched up very quickly” boosted our confidence that we went with the right agents.
On a personal note, we have worked with many agents before who were very professional and did a good job to cross their T’s and dot their I’s. Lois is more than that, however. She offers warmth and strong comfort that you will be taken care of and you know it’ll be taken care of. When she says she’ll call you, she does. When you need to get a hold of her, even for trivial things, she’s there for you. She reminds you to de-clutter a countertop before a showing and to get forms and certificates to your lawyer to make for a smoother closing. She can be a tough executive agent with warm motherly tones and yet stay professional throughout. She has made this usually anxious process unusually smooth and relaxing. Thank you Lois for all you’ve done. I hope others will get to experience how extraordinary you truly are.

John and Lois were a pleasure to work with. They were extremely persistent, thorough and hard working. Being that we have 2 young children they did an excellent job helping us stay focused and helped us in staging our home. Their agenda was solely getting us maximum value for our home which they did.
Additionally, John and Lois helped us find a home to buy. They helped us find our perfect home and didn't stop until we found that right house. They know the real estate business very well and know the real estate market even better. Hiring John and Lois to be your real estate agent on either the selling side or the buying side of the equation is in your best interest; I know it was for us.

Seller and Buyer Testimonial:
My husband and I sincerely recommend Lois and John’s services. Buying and selling a home can be a daunting process. However, with their combined years of expertise and experience, we were able to do it quickly and efficiently. Before listing our condo, Lois and John gave us great advice on staging, pricing and marketing. As soon as our listing went up, we had foot traffic and they were present at our showings. They truly gave our listing the utmost attention throughout the process and always had our best interests in mind. Additionally, they helped us search for the perfect home in our desired location and price point. We were able to seamlessly move out of our condo and move into our home within the same week. My husband and I are so grateful to Lois and John for making our happily ever after happen! We love our new home and the most incredible part of this experience is the friendship we developed. Lois and John are a class act…before, during, and after the sale!

Seller Testimonial:
I am excited to share this testimonial because we were so happy with the services of John and Lois. John was very patient and explained steps in buying a home especially for us, first time home buyers with little knowledge about the buying process. He was available on weekends and nights via email, phone or text and very prompt about returning your calls. Even though we didn't use his recommended broker or lawyer, he made sure to communicate with our professionals and to assist me with making sure emails were sent out promptly and that our entire team was on the same time line. When it came to repairs and things we wanted fixed in the house we were purchasing, John made sure to stay on top and it and worked hard to get us as much credit for our repairs as we could from the sellers. We were very happy with his service and would certainly recommend others to use Lois and John as their agents.
