Ruth: Dongan Hills Colony

Myron and Ruth celebrating the sale of their Dongan Hills Colony home in Staten Island, NY with Holly’s Staten Island Buzz Realty holding a sold sign

It’s Sold! After 48 years in the same home in Dongan Hills Colony, Staten Island, Myron and Ruth said goodbye to a beautiful 1965 colonial set high on an oversized lot surrounded by nature’s privacy. Years ago, instead of moving, they chose to create a spectacular addition featuring panoramic windows, a cozy wood-burning fireplace, skylights, and cathedral ceilings. When the time came to downsize, it was my pleasure to help guide them through the preparation and presentation of their wonderful home in Dongan Hills Colony.

This is what the Happy Seller had to say about their Home Selling experience with Holly’s Staten Island Buzz Realty:

“After spending 48 wonderful years in our home, we knew it was time to downsize. Holly was recommended by our former neighbor whose home was sold by Holly. Our neighbor urged us to work with Holly because of her professionalism and pleasant personality. She certainly was correct. Approximately 6 months before we were ready to put our home on the market, I asked Holly to visit and make suggestions about how best to prepare the house for viewing. Her suggestions were excellent and when I requested who might be able to do certain work, we were always pleased with the results and the costs. When the time came to sell our home, Holly employed excellent video and photography professionals which certainly showed our home and property at their best. She handled the negotiations, worked with the buyer’s agent, and kept us aware at every step of the process. She answered our questions and provided all the information we needed. Holly is a friendly, outgoing individual and it’s been a pleasure to have her as our agent and to get to know her. We will certainly recommend her to any of our friends who plan to sell their homes.”
