Testimonials
"Debbie is absolutely phenomenal. She knows the ins and outs of the home buying process and is always available for helpful information. She helps find your home, negotiate the best price, get all necessary inspections, and get in touch with great loan specialists. Her team is also great and they all make the process incredibly easy."

"Debbie is simply the best of the best. She’s an old fashioned good mannered, highly principled and deeply kind person. If you’re looking for someone who is sincere, well educated in current real estate rules and practices, who takes the time to understand your situation (downsizing, pregnant and need more bedrooms, newly divorced;) and who has a network of contractors, inspectors, lawyers, bankers, painters, plumbers that trust and listen to her advice; then call her first. With her I’ve sold two homes and bought two homes. Truth be told, selling your home is difficult and finding a home is difficult. But it is at certain heightened stressed touch points (eg. 1 week before your open house, weekend of incoming bids, lawyer contract details, time between inspections and final walk through) where Debbie’s superb skill set really shines bright. At these times, you know that your home, and your upcoming entire life style change, are in the hands of a high end professional."

"Primary point of contact: Christine Lassiter Christine Lassiter (part of Debbie’s team) has completed three separate closings with us and she is an absolute dream to work with. If you want an agent that will guide you through the process every step of the way, who is on top of each task to meet your deadlines and will work you night and day to make sure that the sales go smoothly, then Christine and her team are who you want to work with. The team go above and beyond their roles to make sure you are taken care of every step of the way, eliminating stress and providing so much support. I would highly recommend Christine and the Debbie Rybka-Howard team to anyone moving or selling in the area."

"Primary point of contact: Monica Alpert We worked with Monica Alpert of the Debbie Rybka-Howard team. As first time home-buyers we started out in a world of confusion. As soon as Monica came along, all of that went away. She was not only upfront about how things work but also provided amazing insight to both the market and housing needs. Monica was available to us at any point in the day and she made sure to take the time out to explain every little detail. Without Monica and her team, we would have been lost and for sure lead down the wrong path. We cannot give a better recommendation than to work with Monica and the rest of the team."
