Choosing your first home can be terrifying. When you don’t know how the home buying process works, it feels like anything could go wrong; whether it’s getting ripped off, throwing your life savings into a house with structural issues, or simply getting stuck with a home you don’t really like for the next 30 years. Steffi was able to draw up a game plan for us, help with every concern we had, and walk us through the home-buying process from beginning to end. My wife and I were looking for a house as first-time home buyers and had no idea what we were doing. Steffi made herself available for when we needed her, and never tried to ‘talk us into anything. As a matter of fact, she talked us out of our more naive ideas and steered us in the right direction that best fit our needs. There are so many moving parts to the home buying experience, and Steffi was extremely efficient in managing them all for us. She handled the relationship between us and our mortgage broker, as well as all of the great recommendations for title companies, and finally walking us through the closing process. In the end, Steffi allowed us to close on the perfect home in our price range one that we are thrilled to start our family in and raise them for decades to come. It is also worth noting that Steffi helped us do all of this through the COVID-19 crisis, and kept her cool the whole time (even when we were less than charming). Lastly, it didn’t feel like we were dealing with a Realtor® it felt like we were dealing with a good friend that had our best interests in mind. Now that the closing is finally over, my wife and I actually miss the excitement of house hunting with her on the weekends. Thank you, Steffi! You gave us more than just reliable service. We couldn’t have picked a more dependable, professional, and classy person to have shared this experience with I would recommend her to anyone that is looking for a home, regardless of their age or experience.

Our experience with Steffi was exceptional, from start to finish. We were first-time buyers, and Steffi helped us navigate the challenges of home buying. Our long work hours and the added complexity of COVID could have been a real headache, but Steffi always took the time no matter what time of day to help us. She made sure we understood what was taking place at every step in the process and gave us guidance on how to proceed. From our initial offer through closing, she was an invaluable member of the team! In addition to coordinating with the seller, she provided us excellent recommendations for home inspectors, movers, etc. Her personal expertise complements her relationship with Compass to offer resources to review and catalog homes you are interested in touring. I sincerely couldn't recommend her more highly! Steffi was professional, kind, communicative, and incredibly organized throughout. Hats off, we are grateful for all her help!

We worked with Steffi Freedman for about 9 months before finding our new home. We are new to this area and it is very different from our previous location. We found Steffi to be very knowledgeable, responsive, and more than accommodating. While those are excellent skills for a real estate agent, there are 2 others areas where Steffi excels. First, she listens! She heard everything we had to say about our needs and dislikes. She worked really hard to show us homes that addressed our needs. Second - Steffi is patient and calm in the face of problems. We did have some transactional problems and she calmly worked to move the process forward on a positive footing. We are grateful to have met Steffi and have her guidance on our move to this new area. Steffi Freedman is an excellent real estate agent and we highly recommend her.

I met Steffi at a Mommy and Baby Yoga class. Needless to say, there was a lot of change going on in my life. My husband and I needed to sell our house in the city and hoped to purchase near my work in the suburbs, all with an infant at home who wouldn't sleep. Steffi understood my transition to work mom and business owner, as well as the unique challenges of moving from an urban environment to the Main Line. We had a very hectic course, both buying and selling, but Steffi was there every step of the way. She provided guidance, advice, and even a little free therapy. We would recommend Steffi to anyone planning to buy or sell in Philadelphia and the surrounding suburbs. Now that she is not our Realtor®, we are happy to call her our friend!

Highly recommend Steffi! I couldn’t have asked for a better Realtor®! Steffi helped thru the process of selling me in the winter of 2018. She was extremely professional in every way possible; very knowledgeable of the marketplace, extremely responsive with emails/phone calls, and helped me worked thru an extremely difficult buyer, and still got us over asking! I was selling her at a very difficult time in my life and she was exactly what I needed, my rock when I needed her to be and my tough Realtor® when I needed her to be. During stressful times she kept it positive and made sure nothing slipped thru the cracks. After everything she’s helped me thru, I would consider Steffi a very strong Realtor® and now friend!
