"Maya was absolutely amazing to work with. We are first time home buyers and she was always there to reassure us, answer any questions we had (even the really obvious and silly ones) quickly and informatively. Even though our budget was relatively modest, we genuinely felt like we were her most important clients, and that means so much! She has a great network and all her recommendations hit the mark with professional, top-notch vendors. Thank you Maya!!" - Yaniv Glaser.

"Maya did a fantastic job helping to get our house ready to be sold. She suggested smart and cost effective updates that maximized our value in a hot seller’s market. Maya has a great network of agents and colleagues which got us serious and qualified buyers in the door fast. Her effective communication kept us informed and in the right track and her top notch negotiation skills got us the flexible closing terms we needed without sacrificing anything on the deal. We had no idea how to sell a home during a pandemic, but Maya’s thoughtful and careful approach made it easy and safe. A+ and highly recommended if you are looking to sell your home, and I’m sure she’d make a great buyer’s agent too" - schecke2

"If you’re in the market for a new home in Westchester, I would highly recommend reaching out to Maya. She is kind, intelligent, relatable, honest and went above and beyond to help us find the perfect home for our family. We lived in the city for almost 10 years and now with 2 kids, we wanted to move to Westchester for many reasons including better schools but wasn’t sure what we could find in our budget, especially with close proximity to Manhattan for my husband’s work commute. Maya helped us find our dream home and was always available to answer our questions and help us in our search! We found her by recommendation of a friend who she helped find a home in the same area. Don’t hesitate to contact Maya - she is super savvy about all areas of Westchester and is simply the best. Really can’t say enough great things about her!" - Samina K.

"Maya helped us find our dream home. My wife and I honestly couldn't be happier. She was an excellent communicator, super on top of things, and had our back throughout the entire purchase process. I would highly recommend her to anyone who wants to find their perfect home" - Adam W.

★★★★★
"Working with Maya far exceeded any expectations. She was able to clearly understand and embrace my very specific (and hard to find!) wants, which led to an incredibly efficient house search. I also had access to off market homes I would never have been able to see on my own. I couldn't be more thrilled with the whole experience!" - Alaleh A.

★★★★★
"Maya was absolutely fantastic to work with. She and Lindsay were always available to show us houses, answer our questions throughout the process, and went well above and beyond the home purchase aspect alone with recommendations on yard work, childcare, and handyman services in our new neighborhood. Furthermore, Maya was able to get us a discount on a new washer and dryer after we moved in, they gave us baby gifts for our newborn, and she even held the baby during our home closing. Truly was much more than we expected from our agent. I would recommend her/them and certainly would use them for future real estate needs" - Steven S.

★★★★★
"Maya and her colleagues Ari and Lindsay from the Compass office in Dobbs Ferry are amazing! In one week, they listed my home, took photos, held an open house and found me an amazing tenant. I've used other real estate companies before but I will never use any other company other than Compass and particularly, Maya and Lindsay. Words fail to express how truly impressed and humbled I am by them." - Nannette A.

★★★★★
"Maya helped us purchase our first home and we had an excellent experience with her. She was warm, easy-going, and never pushy. We didn't know the area well so really benefited from her local expertise. She really helped us get a sense of each of the towns before we decided on one. She is extremely responsive and held our hands through the entire process. I would recommend her to anyone looking for an excellent realtor in Westchester without hesitation." - Katy G.
★★★★★
"Maya was a perfect fit for us and we are very happy now settled in our new home and neighborhood in the Rivertowns. We moved from Brooklyn which is how I met Maya originally. She had recently made the move herself from Brooklyn back to the Rivertowns where she grew up so she really understood where we were coming from and the area we were looking to potentially settle down. Maya is cool, calm and collected but savvy about real estate and the Westchester market. She was no pressure, let us go at our own pace (which was pretty slow in the beginning), made sure to explore any new towns or areas we brought up and our 4 year old (at the time) was always excited to see her! She reads situations well and got to know our preferences over time. She was also astute at helping to think through financial value in a home and necessary renovations or investment in a property. We were open to building (which she did and had lots of practical information as we thought through that option) on the right lot or renovating (which we both had experience doing in Brooklyn). As we got down to deciding to bid on a house after a lot of comparison shopping Maya was very helpful in establishing a good rapport with the sellers agents and helping us feel out the boundaries. Once we had an accepted offer, Maya maintained strong communication with us and the sellers agents through close. She (and her partner Lindsey) was personally welcoming to us as neighbors in her community and always lending her advice as we settled in (even down to a hairstylist and sponsored activities by her team like a free art class at Scribbles while we go to dinner on Valentines Day was awesome!). It’s never felt like we were just another transaction, Maya and her partners form relationships with you and in the community making you feel welcome. We have bought and sold properties 3 times in the city and now Westchester over the past 6 years and no question that Maya was a major anchor in the A team we had to help us buy in Westchester. We recommend her highly!" - Akibajones

"Maya went above and beyond to help us sell our home. She was always organized, prompt, available and positive. She helped us through the entire process from start to finish and made a difficult process seem almost effortless. I would recommend Maya over and over again." - Geniene D.

★★★★★
"My wife and I were lucky to connect with Maya Sheehan during our search for a home in Ardsley, NY. The market in early 2022 was very fast paced and competitive. Maya’s local knowledge, as well as advice on how to frame the offer, was the key to entering into contract. When one finds the right house chances are you are not alone. A top broker can drastically increase chances of success. Thank you!" - Ramsey P.

★★★★★
"I had the pleasure of working with Maya Sheehan during the recent purchase of our home, and I cannot speak highly enough of the exceptional service she provided. Maya demonstrated an impressive level of knowledge, resourcefulness, and wisdom throughout the entire process. One standout quality was her negotiating skills, which played a crucial role in securing the best deal for us. She skillfully negotiated with the seller on our behalf, ensuring that our interests were well-represented. What truly set Maya apart was her patient and thoughtful approach. Instead of pressuring us into rushed decisions, she provided us with ample time to consider our options. This made the entire experience stress-free and allowed us to make well-informed decisions at our own pace. Maya is not just a real estate professional; she is a true partner who is dedicated to her clients' satisfaction. I wholeheartedly recommend her to anyone seeking a knowledgeable, resourceful, and trustworthy realtor. Thank you, Maya, for making our home-buying experience truly exceptional!" - Hanna

"My husband and I were thrilled to find Maya as we were beginning our rental/house-hunt phase in Westchester. We did an 'intro' call with Maya and decided on the spot that she was our person. She's smart, direct, in-the-know and a straight-shooter who will tell it like it is. A million listings later, she helped us to find our home and was also BEYOND helpful in assisting us to source contractors, architects, designers, pest control people, and the million other vendors that were required once the deal was done. I cannot recommend Maya enough." - Sostrower
