Testimonials

“We wanted to take a moment to thank you for the expertise you and your skilled team members put into helping us sell my mom’s home. Trish, from the first time we met, you had concrete, helpful ideas to showcase our home for today’s buyers. Within hours of us engaging the Capitanini Team, you had your movers and interior designers working with you to stage our home with a huge array of current, tasteful decorations in every room, on loan to us from your beautiful collection of furnishings. Your detailed marketing plan with gorgeous photography was creative and thorough, tapping into marketing techniques we have not seen used by any other realtor on the North Shore. In addition, once the house was listed, your ‘launch’ strategies helped generate a great deal of interest in our home. Your attention to detail in the open houses was superb, and Frank could not have been more thorough and pro…

“We wanted to take a moment to thank you for the expertise you and your skilled team members put into helping us sell my mom’s home. Trish, from the first time we met, you had concrete, helpful ideas to showcase our home for today’s buyers. Within hours of us engaging the Capitanini Team, you had your movers and interior designers working with you to stage our home with a huge array of current, tasteful decorations in every room, on loan to us from your beautiful collection of furnishings. Your detailed marketing plan with gorgeous photography was creative and thorough, tapping into marketing techniques we have not seen used by any other realtor on the North Shore. In addition, once the house was listed, your ‘launch’ strategies helped generate a great deal of interest in our home. Your attention to detail in the open houses was superb, and Frank could not have been more thorough and professional as he attended every showing, accentuating the positive aspects of our home, and following up with us (and with prospective buyers) on every one of the appointments. Once our offer came (within only three weeks), Frank respected our wishes in negotiating it, while coming up with logical suggestions to help us get the best deal we could for our home. He was on site and in constant communication with us regarding each aspect of the buyers’ inspections and final negotiations through the date of the closing. Each member of the Capitanini Team is very talented in what he/she does. You know this market and work very hard for your clients. As a result, you are a great team in every sense of the word. You are professional, kind people who genuinely want the best for the buyers/sellers you work with. That comes across so clearly! Any buyer/seller would be very wise to engage your services, as we have told all four of our young adult children.”

"Just want to add a few notes to the review Abby already provided. We lived in our house in Wilmette for 34 years and I was far from motivated to sell. Our children moved out years ago and our 115 year old house was my fortress of solitude. Although we only lived in a few rooms at this point, a basement and three floors were filled with the clutter of our lives. Actually just my clutter- a thousand books, electronic equipment everywhere, notes, papers, closets filled with clothes I hadn’t worn in ten years etc.- all I was resistant to get rid of. The Capitanini Team entered this nightmare and furiously went to work, and while totally respecting, my reluctance to make our house presentable for sale, went room to room and reorganized and de-cluttered our entire house. We signed the paperwork and went to Mexico for two weeks. The house was listed and three days later we had four offers all …

Actually just my clutter- a thousand books, electronic equipment everywhere, notes, papers, closets filled with clothes I hadn’t worn in ten years etc.- all I was resistant to get rid of. The Capitanini Team entered this nightmare and furiously went to work, and while totally respecting, my reluctance to make our house presentable for sale, went room to room and reorganized and de-cluttered our entire house. We signed the paperwork and went to Mexico for two weeks. The house was listed and three days later we had four offers all above asking price. Then Frank went to work. He went through the offers with us (while we were in Mexico) advised us how to proceed, negotiated with the prospective buyers, referred us to a really good lawyer and prepared us for the highly stressful phase of inspection. Frank was a master- dealing with the inspector, the buyers broker and a very difficult buyer. Not to mention a difficult seller who over reacted at each step. He was a totally calming influence, immediately responded to every irate phone call I made and would say, “there are no problems only solutions”. And he found solutions to every issue. We returned and Trish returned- this time to box up everything that we didn’t throw out or donate and referred us to excellent movers. Trish literally ran up and down the stairs successfully creating order from the chaos. Frank and Trish were totally committed and acted as if we were their only clients. I admit that I can be a difficult person and certainly a difficult client but they made a very stressful situation way more than manageable. If you want to sell your house, the Capitanini Team are the ones to turn to."
