Testimonials
Giselle is hands-down the best realtor we have ever worked with. We tried 4 times to buy a home before meeting her, made at least 10 offers, and could never seem to get an offer accepted (even several that were over asking!). The other realtors we worked with never really seemed engaged, proactive, or like they genuinely wanted to help us.
Giselle, from the beginning, was very hands-on. When we first moved to the area from another state, she helped us secure a rental, identifying great potential properties and taking us on multiple FaceTime tours. She’d even point out flaws with properties we might not have noticed / known to look for to help us avoid renting something we’d regret. We ended up in a great place that we enjoyed for 2 years.
When we were ready to try buying again, she was our first phone call. She helped us:
(1) time our entry into the market to get ahead of other buyers
(2) introduced us to a fantastic mortgage consultant. They helped us run different financial scenarios so we had a clear picture of what we could afford and what all of the numbers would look like ahead of time (for free btw!)
(3) proactively identify properties that met all of our requirements (and actually LISTENED to what we wanted)
Within about a month, we made our first offer for a home we loved, and it was accepted both under asking and with a full inspection! She helped us negotiate all of the repairs we wanted and the ideal close date we wanted.
If it sounds unreal, it certainly felt that way. The entire process was about as close to perfect as it could be. Giselle rocks and we could not recommend her enough.
Giselle Bartolo was the super and fun real estate professional my wife and I needed in finding our perfect home in Philadelphia! She was always there when we had questions and supported us the whole time, and as first home-owners, we had a ton of questions.
Awesome realtor! Very supportive and always there to help you! I don’t think I will ever work with a different one.
Giselle and her entire team were an absolute pleasure to work with. They made the entire process of purchasing a home seamless and easy with no bumps or surprises. Giselle was extremely organized and was continuously in contact with me via text, e-mail and phone to keep me updated and informed of each step in the search and purchase. I wouldn’t hesitate to contact Giselle again on my next home purchase.
We were relocating from north NJ to Collegeville, PA and Giselle was recommended by our family friend and realtor from NJ. After we selected 10 houses from the expansive list, she meticulously planned to tour of all of them in one day! She is a very professional and knowledgeable realtor. Her calm and composed demeanor takes the edge out of home-buying stress. We found our home on the very first day and Giselle helped us win the bidding war like a boss. She made the whole home-buying experience very smooth. With her helpful attitude, she makes sure her clients are in good hands after the buying process ends. Highly recommended.
Giselle is honest, energetic, diligent, knowledgeable, thoughtful, and pleasant to be with. She thinks of everything. She sold two condos for me and did it well and quickly. I am very pleased with her work!
Giselle was great to work with! She was super helpful, amazingly responsive, and always knew the answers to my questions. I’m pretty sure she answered every text I sent her within five minutes. She was great at listening to what I wanted and showed me a lot of places that were exactly what I was looking for. I’d definitely recommend her to anyone who was looking to buy or rent in Philadelphia!
Without question Giselle is the most knowledgeable, detailed and professional realtor I have ever worked with. When you combine that with her pleasant demeanor, and unrelenting work ethic I cant possibly imagine purchasing another home with anyone else. She stuck with us from the first viewing, all the way to the settlement table which lasted more than a year. Not exaggerating, Giselle is the very best!
Giselle was such a pleasure to work with! She is extremely responsive to e-mails and messages and so reachable. She is also very knowledgeable about real estate and she will answer ALL your questions. We appreciated her honesty and her professionalism, especially during the more challenging parts of the process. She is also always on time and very organized. When she promises she will check on something for you, she will! You do not need to remind her or chase her which makes the process so easy. We felt so secure having her work with us! In addition, she deeply cares about her clients and she genuinely wants to help. Last but not least, she is able to anticipate what comes next and reaches out as necessary so you feel ahead with her. We wish her luck in everything she does and we plan to work with her in the future!
Giselle is incredible. Her knowledge of the market and houses in general is vast and impressive. As a total newcomer entering the market to buy my first house, Giselle made me feel secure and at ease despite an intimidating amount of uncertainty.
For every house we looked at together, I could count on her to advocate for me every step of the way. She always gave me her honest opinions about every house we toured, often alerting me to significant issues that wouldn’t have even registered with me.
She was ultimately able to find exactly what I was looking for, all within a couple months of working together. I can’t recommend Giselle highly enough. If you want to work with someone who is incredibly responsive, delivers great results, and makes the whole process as fun as it can be, don’t hesitate to call Giselle.
