Fantastic experience: I recently chose Amanda to handle the sale of my late mother’s home. She immediately understood how personal of a transaction this was. She handled the job with the grace and care of a close family member. Since I lived 3 hours away, she kept an eye on the property and made sure access to her home was professionally handled by anyone who visited. She was a voice of reason, wisdom, and encouragement throughout the entire process. Amanda is joyful person who loves what she does and the people she works for. From the get go, having her sell the home was a tribute to my mother and a blessing through and through.

Her professional advice helped guide us through every step of the process, and even when things took longer than expected—9 months of searching—she never lost patience or enthusiasm. Thanks to her guidance, we finally found a house we now proudly call our own. She also helped us sell our previous home, and it sold quickly, thanks to her knowledge of the market and strong strategy. What meant even more to us was that she is a woman of faith. Her integrity, encouragement, and Christ-centered approach made the entire experience feel grounded and uplifting.

Fantastic experience: Amanda went out of her way to make a very difficult home buying experience as non- stressful as possible. Our move was across country and the majority of our showings were through FaceTime. Amanda patiently took time showing houses and answering any questions we might have had. She went over and beyond in representing us- in person- during any times when we could not be there in person. Any phone calls, texts etc. were responded to in a timely manner.

From the moment I started working with Amanda Alafi she was responsive, professional, knowledgeable and incredibly helpful. It was a lengthy and specific search within a tight budget. She patiently worked with me almost daily for 8 months in an impossibly fast and competitive market. She was never short, she was always willing to help and I truly felt she was my advocate. I trust her and will always be grateful to her for helping me achieve my dream of having a Lake house. I have worked with numerous realtors but never with anyone more competent.

Fantastic experience: Amanda helped us find a cottage on Lake Erie. It is a retreat for us from Hudson, for out-of-the-office working and away-from-home relaxing. My wife's and my work schedules didn't allow us to look together, but Amanda was happy to show us places separately. On the way to our final selection, Amanda helped us think through a variety of different options with different plusses and minuses, pointing out things we hadn't seen that should be kept in mind in our decision process. The place we chose had been on the market for some time. We worried about that long history without a buyer, but Amanda answered all our questions and assured us the comparable sales made this look like a good buy. We ended up giving the seller's reduced list price, with the seller covering a substantial chunk of the closing costs. Amanda helped us at each step to that point, in the search, in negotiations, and in finding three different inspectors (whole house, roof, and hillside erosion) far from Hudson. Then the bank's appraisal came in substantially ABOVE what we paid for the house. If you're looking in NE Ohio, Amanda is professional and personable. We are more than happy clients. We have become friends.

Fantastic experience: My wife and I really enjoyed working with Amanda as our real estate agent. She is very knowledgeable, was attentive to our needs and responded promptly to our questions. We trusted her because she had our best interest in mind in selling our home. We highly recommend Amanda as a real estate agent

Fantastic experience: Amanda was patient with our search as we were pretty picky. She was quick to respond to any requests/questions. She even kept in close contact when she was on vacation and kept things moving when we found our house. Highly recommend!

Fantastic experience: Amanda is wonderful to work with! I have helped photograph several of her homes. She is very personable with all of her clients. Amanda does a great job explaining the process and how she will be able to help her clients. I have personally seen a lot of her homes sell pretty fast. If you are buying or selling a home, I would personally recommend Amanda and her team!

Fantastic experience: Amanda was wonderful in finding the perfect home for me. She got to know me very well and and knew exactly what I wanted. She sent me homes in my email daily. She was very accomodating, never pushy. She has a great personality and she's a real go getter. I am very happy with my new home. The whole process went very smoothly and she was right on top of things. I would recommend her for anyone in the market for a new home. Thanks Amanda, Liz Cari

Fantastic experience: We were out of state when we placed our home for sale with Amanda. She took total control of opening up our home and preparing it for showing. Typically we are out of the state for up to 6 months. Within 2 weeks Amanda had showings of our home and MLS listings. When we returned home Amanda continued to provide her excellent sales expertise and we were able to close on the sale of our home and return to the area we had been in to close on a home there. We cannot say enough about her professionalism and non-ending energy in the process of selling our home. Amanda made the process as smooth as it could have possibly been. We recommend the use of her services to anyone who is trying to sell their home. Remax is a very good Realestate company and they are extremely lucky to have her. Dale & Joyce Fisher

Fantastic experience: I am a home inspector and I wanted to leave a review for Amanda because I have bit of a different perspective than most people. In my profession, I have worked with many realtors. In a nutshell, there are two different kinds of realtors. Realtors I like working with, and realtors I don’t. I don’t like working with realtors that seem more interested in the sale of the home than the best interest of the buyers. I also don’t like working with realtors that rush me on inspections! Amanda falls into the category of realtors I enjoy working with. She was present at the inspections, she was professional and friendly, she was genuinely interested in my inspection findings and did not try to minimize them in any way. This is the kind of realtor that you want as a buyer or seller. Amanda is a realtor that is looking out for you. Mark Cavelli.

Fantastic experience: Amanda has been fabulous from beginning to end. From the day we met her, we knew she would be awesome to work with. Her attention to our needs, her confidence and guidance throughout each hiccup, and her positive and witty personality made the process feel like we were working with a trustworthy friend. We were buying a home from out of state so we relied on her expertise quite heavily, and she always was responsive to our questions and concerns...every time! The first weekend we met, we flew into town to scope out some homes, and she had a three ring binder filled with information along with bottles of water and a generous smile to welcome us. Soon, we found our dream home. Unfortunately, it fell through, and we had to start the process a second time due to disclaimer issues with the seller. She did not blink an eye and was right there for us ready to start all over. She quickly went into action and we were able to find another home immediately. Again, she was making sure each step went as smoothly as possible by making contact and phone calls as necessary until the day we signed on the dotted line. We have gotten to know Amanda and her family throughout our process. Being new to the area, Amanda has taken it upon herself to give us insight to local attractions, customary traditions, and reputable businesses. Having never lived or visited this area before, it was nice to have someone to guide us. We would highly recommend Amanda during your home purchase. You will always be in good hands with Amanda and the team at ReMax.

Fantastic experience: Amanda is very knowledgeable, detail oriented, and communicates extremely well.

Fantastic experience: Amanda was in touch everyday, sometime multiple times a day. She was always available to adjust our house search, look up details about a house, or make phone calls. After we put in an offer, she continued to do all of the hard work so we didn’t have to. With an out of town move, she also helped connect us with schools, doctors, etc. I highly recommend Amanda!

Fantastic experience: Amanda is a wonderful Realtor. Her clients are always well informed and have positive comments about her professionalism and demeanor. She's always looking out for their best interests.

Fantastic experience: My wife and I were relocating to the mentor oh area from South Dakota, we found Amanda through an ad on a home that caught our eye. She was polite courteous and very complete to answer all of our question. We choose to use her when we planned a weekend of house hunting. She prepared very well, properties listed in a binder and all details attached, she was even prepared with water and any other needs we might have. Long story of securing our current house, but she was diligent, in the process as our first home fell through a week before closing, and the home we ended up buying has turned in to the perfect home for us. She truly was amazing through the sorted affair!! Thank you Amanda

Fantastic experience: Amanda did an excellent job with both the sale of our existing home and the purchase of our new home. She did everything possible to help us sell our home quickly for the best possible price, including several open houses. She spent a great deal of time assessing our property and comparable sales in the area to be sure our home was priced correctly. She followed up immediately with showing realtors for comments on each showing and provided suggestions on how to improve our property for future showings. She dealt positively with the buyer’s realtor and coordinated the sale so that it went as smoothly as possible. Amanda was accessible and patient when we had questions and concerns, by phone, email or text. She has a pleasant, friendly personality, and we enjoyed working with her very much. I highly recommend Amanda Alafi if you are looking to buy or sell a home in the future. I would definitely use her services again!

Fantastic experience: As a real estate photographer, I have the opportunity to work with many real estate agencies and their agents in the N.E. Ohio area. I get to know which agents treat their customers well, versus unfortunately, those who don't. Additionally. I've come to learn which agents move their listings quickly as a selling agent, while also being a successful negotiator for those clients needing a buyer's agent. Amanda is one of those best-in-class realtors who exemplifies both qualities. Amanda is credible, keeps her word and goes above and beyond for her clients - traits which are invaluable and much needed in the real estate industry.
