    "We've worked with Dani for 7 years through both buying and renting properties. This was our first time selling a property with her and it couldn't have been an easier and more successful transaction. She coordinated and managed everything, from the listing to the closing. From start to finish the entire process was wrapped up in 6 weeks without a single bump in the road. We wouldn't work with anyone else!" - Lois and Bob Zawrotny

    "I would highly recommend working with Daniele Alsheimer to anyone who is in the market for a real estate agent. Daniele really went above and beyond to make sure I found a place to call home, which was especially important to me since I moved over 1,000 miles to get to Newport! I was in town for a very short period of time and Daniele worked her magic to get me in to see multiple rentals, working outside of regular business hours to do so. It was clear from the beginning that Daniele truly cares for her customers - both the renters and homeowners - and she worked very hard to find a match for both. I am so very happy with my place in Newport and won't hesitate to contact Daniele for any future real estate needs!" - Robyn

Thank you for being patient through out the process. She was very knowledgeable, and guided us through a number of offers and finally a successful transaction. We would definitely recommend Dani Alsheimer to anybody." - Maria and Joao

    "We worked with Daniele to both purchase an investment property as well as market and rent it once it was ready. She listened to our needs as home buyers, and provided expert guidance and non-biased support as first time landlords. She helped us find a great match in our renters and ensured the lease process went smoothly. I would recommend Daniele to anyone looking for a real estate agent. She cares about her customers and wants to make every transaction a success." - Lois and Bob

    "Daniele was recommended to us by a friend, and immediately responded to our inquiry for a house search. We had a very limited amount of time to relocate to the area, but Daniele opened her schedule to accommodate our short timeline. Daniele asked us what we needed and wanted in a home, and immediately went to work to find a list of both rentals and sales. We called Daniele on a Wednesday and met with her the very next afternoon. She asked all of the right questions to identify what locations and house features were important to us, and offered to spend as much time with us as needed over the following 2 days that we had available for a search. Throughout our entire home buying experience, Daniele was responsive, friendly, punctual, and a pleasure with whom to work. We never felt rushed to make a decision, and felt that Daniele always had our best interests in mind." - Steve

    "Daniele was an awesome agent to work with! I bought a home basically site unseen but had confidence in the property because she was willing to do a FaceTime showing of the house. She was able to answer all of my questions that I had a first time home buyer and was very quick with her responses! I will definitely work with Daniele again in the future!" " -Deterding

    ★★★★★
    "I highly recommended Daniele Alsheimer when buying or selling your home. When listing my home I was familiar with her reputation on the Island so it was an easy choice. Daniele sold my home at full asking price and in under 2 weeks. She managed every detail in my absence for which I am eternally grateful. Im not certain i could have received her same level of dedication had I chosen another agent. A class act from start to finish! " -Lynn

    "WOW - where to start?!? Dani handled the entire process ?from soup to nuts? so expertly and patiently. I feel like I?ve made a friend. " -Paul

    ★★★★★
    "I wanted to personally send you a "Thank You" note now that I am finally settled in. I especially wanted to highlight your professionalism, and the expeditious service you provided my family and I in the eleventh hour. I can honestly say, I don't know many people willing to provide such a service, last minute, where the monetary gains are minuscule. From our initial conversation, to the signing of the lease, you had my utmost confidence that things would work out well. Additionally, I believe that in life, we must provide a service equivalent to the material things we demand of it, but we have to render the service first. This you did and executed flawlessly. My family and I sincerely thank you that! " -Jerome

    ★★★★★
    "We worked with Dani on the sale of our rental property in Middletown as well as the listing of our home in Portsmouth. It has been a long and emotional process that Dani has journeyed with us. There were several twists and turns along the way that she navigated with us; she has been very patient and supportive Dani is always professional, always encouraging and goes the extra mile each and every time. From rolling up her sleeves and moving heavy boxes to facilitating complicated a fire inspection Dani was an energetic and enthusiastic problem solver. We plan to continue working with Dani in the years ahead and encourage all who are considering it to go ahead and make the commitment. You will be pleased with the results! " -Joe & Marie

    ★★★★★
    "Daniele did an amazing job with assisting us with selling our old home and purchasing our new one. She priced our home just right which resulted in receiving multiple offers, above asking price, on the first showing! Dani used her knowledge by helping us determine the most secure and solid offer. Throughout the normal stress of selling and buying a home, she was with us each step of the way, which made this a very positive and stressfree time. She was always available either by phone, email and even by text. Not only is Daniele professional, she is friendly, honest, and easy to work with. We would highly recommend Daniele Alsheimer for any of your real estate needs. " -Pam and Brian

I would trust Daniele with all my future real estate needs and would highly recommend her to anyone. " -The Flores

    "Daniele, We never had a realtor to follow up several months later. We are especially grateful that you were able to find us a townhome as quickly as you did. Your attention to detail, continuous follow up and patience with us was outstanding. I have been in the Navy 26 years,and have moved over 20 times, and by far you are one of the best realtors at what you do. We had probably viewed over 15 to 20 locations, but you obviously knew what we needed. Thanks again for your excellent customer service, professionalism, and a superior dedication to customer satisfaction!!! Best Regards " -John & Sylinda Glover

    "My husband and I were rushed out of our apartment in the beginning of June and were on a mission to purchase our first home by the time school started again in September. Dani being a friend, was our first choice for our realtor of course! We started our search in three towns and for two weeks straight, almost every day, Dani was driving 20 plus miles to show us house after house. We must have visited at least 15 different homes. Being a sellers market and having such a small budget, it was getting tricky to find the right home for us. We kept putting offers in on multiple homes and we would be out bid by buyers without a mortgage or who would wave the inspection. We were starting to loose hope that we would have our kids back in their schools by September. Although, Dani was always our positive driving force to not give up. She kept reminding us that it?s ok, we just haven?t seen ?our home? yet. We found a home in the school district we wanted, with an amazing price... but it needed a ton of work! We put an offer in anyway. They counter offered and we had to tell them our answer by that evening. We were on our way to a wedding that night and Dani called saying there was a perfect home in our school district, in our price range that just popped up today! She insisted we had to see it that day before we answered the counter offer. We all rushed to the house and were the first people to be able to view it. It was perfect! The offer went in that night and we finally were accepted!! Our home is exactly what we had been waiting for! Our house bunting experience was not what we expected it to be, but when we look back on it we think of the people like Dani who made the experience amazing! We are so grateful for all of Dani?s hard work and positive, encouraging energy. We would recommend to anyone who is searching for a home to work with Dani! She is the best team player to have on your side! 😘Thank you!!!!"
