“Purchasing a home is akin to a ride on the roller coaster, full of emotional highs and lows and unexpected turns. We very much appreciated Andrea Goryl's calm and resolute manner throughout our search for a home. She was at all times professional and glad we had her as our representative."
Ken & Paloma L.
"Nan offered me consistently wise, prudent advice. She is a highly competent, experienced professional. Her style is low-key, no pressure. She's a good listener. She always makes herself accessible. There's much a realtor needs to know about: the geographic area, the neighborhood, building construction, how to market, stage a home, home finance, a roster of good contractors, etc. Nan and her team have it all."

Buyer & Seller
"We had a great experience with Joan. She is a very friendly, responsive and client-centred realtor and always only a phone call away. She knows the market, developed appropriate comps from the neighborhood, and most importantly communicated with us on a regular basis. We had very good traffic and she was great at helping to ensure the house had broad appeal to a variety of potential buyers. She sold our house in the timeframe we were shooting for and the team she works with, from photographers, etc., are skilled plus she a lot of contacts to help you find the people you need to close the deal. I would highly recommend Joan to anyone and will definitely use her again if we need a realtor."
Seller
“Matt and I can’t thank Linda enough for everything she has done for us to ensure we are happy in our new home. She has gone above and beyond our expectations and made this experience wonderful for us. We wish her a bounty of blessings.”
Matt & Kathleen R.
“We worked with Sara on two purchases. She’s great in all regards. She knows her business, is very patient if you happen to be particular, has strong market knowledge and pays attention to detail when looking at homes and evaluating inspection reports. If you’re trying to decide on a realtor, this is a no brainer. Just hire her.
Buyer & Seller
"We have bought and sold 5 homes and this was by far the smoothest in every way. Joann was not only instrumental in her execution but her expertise made everything easier and more expedient. Joann was always reachable no matter day/night/weekend even when she was out of town! The house was under contract in 9 days. The most unexpected and appreciated thing Joann did was find cost effective and readily available professionals to do the work needed after the home inspection in order to make our 30 day settlement date. Whether you are very knowledgeable or a novice in the real estate market I would highly recommend Joann Neumann. We could not have been more pleased and impressed!!"
Buyer & Seller
"Marie‘s expertise in the real estate market eased the sale of our longtime family home from listing through moving. She provided excellent advice regarding preparing our home for the market and strategic marketing advice during our listing period. As a result, we sold our home in a difficult market, when many others at the same price level languished...We can’t recommend her highly enough!
John and Mary
"It was a pleasure to work with Joann in the sale of our home. She brings fantastic local knowledge and strong experience including corporate relocation deals. Personally, she is incredibly responsive, and exudes a calming presence amidst the craziness of sale negotiations. An added benefit with Joann is that she is a professional house stager (including the provision of accent pieces) was a key differentiator in our realtor decision process. She was instrumental in helping us to maximize our return from our sale and we highly recommend her."
Michael
"Working with Marie was the best decision we made when purchasing our new home! While getting into our new home construction came with several unexpected delays, Marie was right there with us to guide our decisions, offer strategy and advice as our advocate, and step beyond her role as a realtor to ensure permits and applications to seal our settlement occurred. She was easy to contact via text, email, and phone, and made us feel like no question or worry we had was ever too small to talk through. Leaning on Marie was what took us all the way to settlement in a development that had a lot of ups and downs, and we couldn't have asked for a more professional, harder working realtor than we found in Marie."
Buyer
"Joann was able to understand our needs very well. Combined with her deep knowledge of the Main Line, she made very good use of our time. She was very supportive and responsive about guiding us through the process, and she would be an ideal choice as a first time buyer's agent."
Jay
"Joann was incredibly patient and thorough. She explained all steps of the process, helping us see best ways to approach negotiating and was incredible with communication keeping us in the loop throughout. We were able to pay the price we felt comfortable with and would definitely recommend Joann to friends and family! Also a huge perk that she is very familiar with the Main Line area and has tons of personal contacts for services that are inevitably needed after purchasing a home. Thank you for everything Joann!"
Buyer
“Ari has been the most amazing realtor that we have had. We loved working with her so much, that we used her when we bought our house and then when we had to relocate we worked to her and she sold our house. Very professional and did everything above and beyond to help us find our dream house and also sell our house. You will be lucky to work with her!”
Buyer & Seller
"Nan helped us through our first real estate purchase. She patiently explained the process at each step, answered our many questions, and kept the transaction on track. She also worked after hours to accommodate our busy family schedule, and offered her insights on market dynamics. Highly recommend her!"
Andrew C.
“My husband and I were looking for our first home and came across Ari. She was such a helpful guide, patiently answering all of our questions and teaching us about the home buying process. She made sure we understood all facets of crafting our offer and felt comfortable along the way. She was great during negotiations and built a good working relationship with the seller's agent. We found our dream home thanks to her. We can't thank Ari enough for all of her help and guidance!”
Buyer
"She has sold me several properties, has found rentals/tenants for my properties and has helped with renovations. She is professional and efficient!"
Buyer & Seller
"Andrea Goryl has been am outstanding realty agent. Her knowledge of the house hunting and mortgage process was stellar. She knew exactly what to look for in the house search and whether it would work with what I needed. Her perspective was unbeatable. When the mortgage process became a bit chaotic Andrea Goryl was supportive and followed up with the individuals who were involved so that I knew that all was moving forward. I highly recommend Ms. Goryl for outstanding service as she walked me through the entire mortgage process. She was a miracle worker.”
Janice K.
"Nanette was a wonderful realtor who helped us with our move from Center City to the suburbs. She has a wealth of knowledge about the schools, neighborhoods and different areas. She was very diligent with us and showed us many houses. We were undecided as to where to move to and she really assisted and supported us through the process. Our buying transaction went very smoothly and she really was dedicated to us clients."
A. Labresca
"While Ari helped us both sell our prior home and buy our new home, she did so much more than that. Ari was with us every step of the way during this process. She was extremely responsive and she listened to what we wanted. This was a particularly difficult time for us due to the COVID-19 crisis, which broke shortly after we went under contract for both homes. Ari could not have been more comforting, supportive, and professional in the way she handled our matters. She worked tirelessly to deliver on all of our requests (which included working late nights). Every time I called Ari, she either picked up or called me back within minutes. Ari has a kind and approachable demeanor, but most importantly, Ari gets deals done and makes her clients her first priority. I would highly recommend Ari. She is a consummate professional."
Seller & Buyer
“Ari was absolutely amazing to work with! We are first time home buyers and she explained the process very nicely throughout everything. She was honest when touring houses, with things that were big or small deals. We did have to make a few different offers on various houses because the market was crazy, but she was flexible with our schedules and always got us paperwork quickly! She fought for us to get our house, building a great relationship with the seller's representative. I would highly recommend her to anyone looking to buy or sell their home!”
Buyer
"Marie is not only an experienced realtor, but she also has personal experience designing and managing extensions, renovations and new builds. She is excellent at seeing the potential and finding a budget point that will work for her clients. She also can help with great, realistic ideas to transform a property.
Seller
“Sara represented us on both the buying and selling side of our recent real estate transactions. Throughout the entire process, Sara was responsive, professional and a strong advocated for our best interests! In one of our very first discussions, I remember Sara saying, ‘if you listen to my advice, I can sell your house in two weeks.’ Well, we listened and our house sold in 24 hours!"
Buyer & Seller

Nan is a very dedicated professional who made a very stressful time much less so due to her was very responsive, targeted approach. Nan's expertise in the local market was key in pricing the house appropriately. After moving into our new home, Nan continued to assist with home improvement experts. I could not be more pleased with the experience!"

“It’s not news that selling a house can be a stressful experience for many people. This is particularly true when leaving a beloved neighborhood in trying economic times. All the more reason why we have valued the steadfast professional competence of Linda. She has an exceptional gift for combining awareness of all facets of a sale with unique personal attention.“It’s not news that selling a house can be a stressful experience for many people.

Buyer
"Ari was absolutely amazing to work with! We are first time home buyers and she explained the process very nicely throughout everything. She was honest when touring houses, with things that were big or small deals. Also she was always able to help us find potential in places, with ideas and recommendations. We did have to make a few different offers on various houses because the market was crazy, but she was flexible with our schedules and always got us paperwork quickly! Also she was really sweet and supportive when we didn't get houses. She fought for us to get our house, building a great relationship with the seller's representative to help get us the house!

Sam
“It was a very positive experience to work with Andrea Goryl on the sale of my home. She is very ethical and highly professional. She is very focused on the needs of her client. She was always available to talk and guide me through the process. She kept me informed at all times about what I could expect. Andrea is extremely organized and was very patient in working with the Buyers agents who were not as well prepared or timely in their responses. I would highly recommend her to anyone who needs service in Real Estate.”
Unni F.
"I can't recommend Marie enough after working with her for the past two years. She is professional, courteous, and extremely knowledgeable about the market and homes in the area. Not only was she easy to work and communicate with, she was always readily available for showings, walk-throughs, and has even helped connect me with several contractors in the area for home upgrades. She is wonderful to work with - 11/10!!”
Steve B.
"Working with Nan made the process of selling my house incredibly easy. I made the decision to sell and put the house on the market pretty quickly and Nan was incredibly helpful in her recommendations on how to prepare my house for listing, getting the listing put together, and managing the selling process. Nan is incredibly responsive and helpful with resources to support the process (vendors in particular) and made what is a generally very stressful process as easy as possible for me. I can't recommend Nan highly enough - you'll be thrilled to work with her to buy or sell your home!"
Amanda L.
“Ari took the time help familiarize us with the different suburbs we were considering. She was so patient and supportive during our process of figuring out what we wanted (type of home, style, neighborhood, etc.) and never made us feel pressured. She was always responsive, got things done quickly and kept two steps ahead of us! She's not only a prompt and responsible agent, she's a lovely person who really enjoys working with clients. We appreciated her care and honesty and are so glad we had such a wonderful agent to help us navigate this huge step in life. We would absolutely recommend working with Ari!”

We worked with Marie during the early days of the pandemic, and she did everything she could to keep the process moving forward despite government restrictions. She was very responsive to every question and concern. Marie has extensive knowledge of the area and helped us narrow down the best neighborhoods for our needs and interests. She made the whole process easy and enjoyable!"

D. Labresca
“The first rule when working with Andrea is listen to her. She knows the market, she knows how to negotiate, she knows good value when she sees it, and she knows how to close a deal. The second rule when working with Andrea is listen to her. She is absolutely the best realtor working in the Philadelphia area. If you have the intelligence to hire her, she will have your back and you will have smooth sailing in your real estate transaction!"
Sue S.
"Marie just sold my house; she found it for me in 2004. In '04 she got me to the front of a line of bidders, all of whom were making offers above asking. Selling it in 2014-15 was a different, and probably tougher challenge, but she got it done. She knows her market, she works (literally, on my house!) like a Trojan, and she's a sensible, friendly, no-BS pro. Thanks Marie!"
Seller
"Marie and her team were the ultimate professionals to work with. They were quick to answer our questions, provided perfect guidance and made the purchase, and closing flawless. They worked with our very short and difficult timeline and with the Advisors that we needed to complete this purchase. Cant wait to work with them again."
Stewart M. and Michelle R.
"Nan did a terrific job advising what needed to be done to prepare my parents' home for sale including recommending paint colors for a room that needed to be repainted. She had the home professionally staged which made a huge difference. The home was successfully sold in one week with four offers, two of them above list price. She did a great job."
B. McConnell
“I will definitely refer Ari to friends and family. She is a highly experienced professional. Her expertise during the whole process was reassuring. I felt so well-represented. You really need a realtor that is going to look out for you. I felt I had that with Ari. Ari was with me every step of the way. I am settling on a home that I love in a couple short weeks! Many, many thanks to Ari!”
Buyer
“I am beyond impressed with the exceptional service provided by Ari. From start to finish, she went above and beyond to make our home buying and selling experience seamless and enjoyable. Ari displayed a remarkable level of professionalism, patience, and kindness throughout the entire process. She took the time to understand our special needs, answered all our questions, and offered invaluable advice, making us feel supported every step of the way. What truly stood out was Ari’s genuine care and dedication.”
