“Holly is very familiar with the area and home values. She is very responsive and will work to get a fair deal. Holly is knowledgeable about closing procedures and will take the time to walk you through every document. From listing to close, Holly handles everything. My home sold in 5 days for the full asking price. Wow! I highly recommend Holly.”
“Brannon was very helpful with the whole process of looking for and buying my house. I would definitely recommend him to anyone looking to buy a house.--Jason”
“After interviewing several local real estate agents, I chose to go with Holly Mack-Ward & Co for two reasons. The first was the team's professional style: organized and detail-oriented, but welcoming and personable. Admittedly this goes for most real estate offices. The second and more important reason was my impression of the knowledge they brough … t to the table. Most other agents have lots of market knowledge, but what tipped the balance for me was what Jake Simonic, the agent I was to work with, could provide beyond this. Basically he is a former builder himself (and remains a part-time builder), and so has knowledge of the actual construction of the homes. I believed he could bring to my attention lots of things I wouldn't think of myself, as I have never owned (let alone built) a home. I wasn't disappointed; that's just what happened. Jake had knowledge not just of the market but of houses as physical beings. He personally knew many of the builders around the central areas of Philadelphia that I was interested in, and he could praise or criticize their work. I also found him to be honest, and didn't get the sense he was just trying to get me into the house with the highest price---an experience several of my friends had with their agents. Lastly it was during the harried closing process that Holly's team really came through. My bank's delays, lack of disclosure, multiple points of contact, and other forms of run-around were exasperating, and sometimes just pitiful (al despite my 800 FICO score and 20% down payment---you'd think they'd be working to keep my business). I, a financial civilian, didn't know how to apply the pressure needed to make them meet their obligations. Here the back-end support from Holly's team was invaluable, to the point that I don't know how I would have gotten through the process without it. Again Robin, thank you. So altogether I had a great experience with Holly and her team; I was pleased beyond my expectations, and now I'm living happily in my first home” Read More ▾
“Holly was nothing short of a godsend. We took her advice exactly and managed to sell our house for the price we wanted in under 3 months. In sum, she knows exactly what she's talking about, and she's also very easy to talk to and work with. I recommend her very highly!”
“Robin went above and beyond in helping us buy our dream home. From the use of Basecamp to track all milestones to the personal interaction and care shown by Christian and Robin, the experience was one I'd highly recommend. They were always quick in response to any questions I had as a first-time home buyer and I never felt hesitant or worried about … asking a "dumb" question. In short, they made my home purchase one of the easiest purchases of my life” Read More ▾
“Jen Golden found my beautiful house and led me skillfully through the whole process of buying it! As a new homeowner her professionalism and staying on top of all the timelines was crucial. What I appreciated most was that she knew exactly what I wanted in a home and found it for me before it even hit the market! Thanks Jen!”
“I had the pleasure of working with Jennifer Golden and Robin Mack-Ward during the process of purchasing my home. I have dealt with real estate agents in the past who were clearly focused on their commission check, but I never once had that experience with the Holly Mack-Ward group. It was clear from the beginning that finding the home that was righ … t for me was top priority, and that was not an easy task. Even after dragging Jennifer to countless homes, some in neighborhoods I would not walk through after dark, she was always ready for my next list with great enthusiasm. Jennifer and Robin were always professional, informative, quick to respond to my inquiries, and most importantly, organized. There are so many dates and deadlines to remember when buying a home. Robin had set up email reminders and check-ins that kept me up to date on the progress of negotiations and contracts. It was extremely helpful to have one place to log on and see the detailed list that showed both what was left to do and what was completed. I would recommend Holly Mack-Ward and co. to anyone buying a home. Jennifer and Robin are amazing people to work with, and they have great senses of humor. It was refreshing to be able to have a serious focus on home buying while still being able to appreciate the lighthearted moments. Thank you” Read More ▾
“We had a property that could have been difficult to sell, and yet Holly and her team persevered and found the appropriate demographic to which to market the home. Along the way they were responsive, patient and helpful — true professionals. Holly expertly guided us to determining appropriate pricing structure on the property, while Robin was an eno … rmous help with getting us to settlement with our valued buyer. I would highly recommend the Mack-Ward team to anyone (buyer or seller) in the real estate market in Philadelphia” Read More ▾
