Philene is amazing! My fiancé and I are first time home buyers, and we weren't at all familiar with the process. She made it so easy, and we found our first beautiful home. She always had time to help us and answer our questions. I would recommend her to anyone. Thank you so much Philene!… [Read full reviews on Zillow]

I met Philene at my job. Our relationship actually started as her being one of my clients. It was definitely a situation where God sent her my direction. I told her that my husband and I were looking to start the process to purchase a home and we did not know where to start. That day she told me her experience in the field and assured me that she would move at our pace and that she did. That weekend my husband and I met with her and she provided us with all the information we needed. She gave a sense of comfort and didn’t make us feel like our questions were unintelligent. After being approved for our loan, Philene was on a roll. She found us homes to look at from the list of things we told her we were looking for. If we told her no on a house, she had another to show. After finding our home, she made sure that the process remained smooth. Any concerns we had, she addressed them immediately. She made sure that the closing was flawless. She is an excellent realtor and I would definitely recommend her to my friends, family, or anyone. She was genuine and simply a genius when it comes to real estate. When it is time for our next purchase, we will definitely be giving her a call. Thank you again Philene.… [Read full reviews on Zillow]

Let us start by saying Philene James was extraordinary. We formally lived in New Jersey. Not only did she find us our dream home from a distance, she did this when Covid 19 was at its peak. She connected constantly with us via phone, texts, emails, and best of all virtually. Philene actually made us feel we were right there inside of each home that was shown to us. Philene walked us through every aspect of the house. Sometimes even going back to show us again. Not to mention through bad weather and all, Philene pounded the payment. She never left our side. She there every step of the way. We never had to worry about her response time. She exhibited patience, knowledge, understanding and a friendly demeanor above and beyond regarding finding the perfect home we were looking for. Along with practicing all the safety precautions to ensure the safely of others, and herself.Plilene James is truly an asset to Longandfoster. We will definitely recommend her to anyone who is looking to buy or sell a home. We will also use Philene for our future endeavors.We couldn't have had a better experience.#happynewhomeowners… [Read full reviews on Zillow]
