I have worked with Bob in selling two homes very quickly, one in 2009 and the other in 2010. The one in 2009 was mine and in 2010 it was my parents. He is very web savy, takes great pics and is very up front with you. If I still lived in NJ I would use him again. You can't go wrong when you use Bob!

Bob and Lisa were very professional but we felt as though they were family in the way they cared about our concerns in selling our home and buying our new one. They were never more than a phone call away and supported us through a somewhat difficult sale and purchase. They helped us stage our home and then Bob took wonderful pictures of our house and they both guided us through each step of the transactions with the sale and purchase. We would and have recommend them to friends and if we ever leave our dream home, we will certainly make them our first call!

Helped me buy a home Bob and Lisa are a great team. My husband and I first contacted them to sell our home in Fort Lee. Once we successfully (and happily) brokered that deal the house hunt was on. They are always accessible and always happy to answer questions. They are patient and caring which is very refreshing. We trusted them completely to have our best interests at heart. Highly recommend them for all real estate needs.

Lisa and Bob helped us to purchase our first home. They were constantly available to us, sending us emails with new home listings almost as they hit the MLS! Their courtesy and professionalism were unmatched in what turned out to be a complicated and contentious real estate deal. They helped in negotiations with a difficult seller, and made mountains move when we needed them! They were honest and disclosed any situation that they felt might be worrisome in the homes we were viewing, and even went outside of their normal area and researched the places that my family and I wanted to look. I would whole-heartedly recommend them to anyone looking to purchase or sell their home!

As first time home sellers, we searched online for real estate agents and talked with couple of agents, and chose Bob & Lisa as our agent. The outcome they delivered proved we made a correct and wise choice. Their professional services were excellent!

Bob and Lisa were recommended to us from a relocation realtor. They helped us sell two homes and made the transitions run smoothly. Relocating is always stressful, even if it's something planned and they were very knowledgeable and helpful. We would highly recommend Bob and Lisa Hammerstein!

As first time home buyers we discovered Lisa and Bob online and chose them as our agents. We found that having a husband and wife team really worked to our benefit as they were ALWAYS available for us. They are extremely responsive and up-to-date with all the latest technology. If you're looking for true realtors with heart, then Lisa and Bob are your agents. They were very patient with us and were careful not to pressure us into anything. They ultimately found us our house and we are now happy first time homeowners and neighbors. John and Chrissy Z.

Thank You Thank You!!! Dear Lisa and Bob, Thank you, thank you, thank you! From selling my house in record time at asking price, to patiently helping me find my new dream home, you were wonderful. Your warmth and professionalism were so appreciated during this transition. I couldn't have made it through with my nerves intact without your help, guidance and support. YOU ARE TERRIFIC! I feel I not only had top-notch realtors, but friends. Thank you again,

"We Want to Thank You!" "We want to thank you for all that you have done. We were reluctant to sell our house, especially in a "slow" market, but with your professional knowledge, kindness and patience, you saw us through it and SOLD IT! :-) And we ended up finding our dream house. We are so happy here! You both work so hard and we appreciate all you have done. We will definitely tell anyone we know to use you for realtors! Thank You!"
