The Bencosme Group of CENTURY 21 Village Realty

Julie Bencosme is so amazing; we have worked with her twice to sell 2 houses. We highly recommend her to friends and family and will defiantly work with her again in the future.

FIVE STARS for Andy Bencosme!! There are not enough positive adjectives to describe our experience with Andy. He is phenomenal, and then some. We were first time home buyers and were so nervous/excited about the entire process. Andy immediately put us at ease and guided us, every step of the way. He never, not once, made us feel like we were asking dumb rookie questions (even though we probably asked a ton) - he has the patience/professionalism/demeanor of a Saint! And a biting wit that will have you laughing immediately AND hours later. Andy was also extremely knowledgeable about our target neighborhoods and masterfully helped us navigate our options. When it came down to closing, Andy again was there to help - he went above and beyond our expectations and got us an unheard-of price AND, on top of everything else, a very generous credit. He was also there 100000% of the way during the inspection process and even coordinated (and physically attended) all the additional inspections. Who does that? ANDY. Every single time we called/texted/emailed Andy, he was always immediately responsive - in other words, Andy will NOT ghost you. This trait alone was a lifesaver for us (me, in particular, as I am a Type A/very thorough personality) and saved me from having a stroke on so many occasions. Andy is also an extraordinary diplomat - he was not only wonderful with us (as the Buyers) but he's so lovely with everyone he interacted with. In other words, he's not a jerk and you won't run for the hills interacting with him. We can't sing Andy's praises enough - we've already referred a friend to Andy and will not hesitate one bit to recommend Andy to anyone who will listen to us. Andy is super trustworthy, professional, personable, FUNNY, witty, knowledgeable, patient, responsive, A+ above and beyond service and interaction. Andy is EXCELLENT - across the board. Andy is a joy to work with and we are forever grateful to him for being on this homeownership journey with us. Thank you Andy!!!

Julie Bencosme is an amazing person to work with. She is very professional but also very personable. She was great at explaining the selling process as we never sold a home before. She listened to what we wanted and was excellent at negotiating with the other party. I would highly recommend Julie to others. We plan on working with Julie again when we sell my dads house in this coming new year.

I feel fortunate to call Julie a friend! She has worked with me to buy and sell numerous homes over the past decade and I would love to continue to work with Julie for every purchase/sale in my future. Julie went above and beyond and worked around the clock. For the most recent purchase, Julie and I viewed over 40+ houses, yet her dedication, work ethic, demeanor, and determination never wavered. Julie provided meaningful feedback on the homes we viewed and she helped me make an educated and fiscally responsible decision on one the biggest purchases I have ever made. I cannot thank Julie enough!

Julie was exactly what we needed as first time home buyers in a tough market. She was extremely patient and helped us to persevere and not lose hope. She's extremely knowledgeable about the area and she's always willing to answer questions. Without her we never would have been able to find our beautiful new home.

Julie was available to meet via zoom in a timely matter to discuss selling my place. She came to the meeting having done research in my area to provide me with a clear (and encouraging!) picture of what my selling prospects could be. Julie helped me through each step so that I understood and was comfortable with the process from the initial meeting through closing on my sale and purchase property Julie and the team at Century 21 Sierra Madre were fantastic, all showed the highest level of professionalism and exuded the vibe of working with friends throughout the process. There were lots of areas for mis-step with buying and selling simultaneously, but I am glad to say Julie and the team made it seem effortless as they juggled communications with multiple realtors, mortgage brokers, and escrow companies.
