"We recently sold our home with Tom Crimmins in Westerleigh, Staten Island. I would highly recommend Tom to anyone looking to buy or sell. He is not only a wonderful real estate agent (patient, professional, knowledgeable), but also a wonderful person. He truly knows the real estate market and is realistic in terms of price and time. We initially listed our home with another agency and had no luck; after 6 months we swtiched to Tom Crimmins and our house sold within a couple of months. We had more interest in our home with Tom Crimmins in 1 month than we did with another agent/agency in 6 months! I have already recommended Tom to friends looking to buy or sell because he is truly the best!"

"As a first-time homebuyer, the concept of my having to go out and view properties was a daunting task, one that required a substantial amount of time, patience, and most importantly, a good realtor to represent my interests. I had the very unpleasant experience of initially working with a realtor (that I had randomly selected from a real estate magazine) whose goals were later revealed to not be in line with my interests, and so, after three weeks of spinning my wheels, I was back to the drawing board, with no realtor and no prospective property to view/purchase.After receiving a personal recommendation from my lawyer, I reached out to his referral, Tom Crimmins, to see if we could find common ground in our goals, especially given my preferences and budget constraints. Tom struck me as a well-mannered, professional agent who listened more than he spoke (a very positive attribute in a realtor!) and was willing to invest the time and effort to find me a property that would suit my needs. To say that he was just a good agent for my home search would be an understatement ? Tom was the perfect realtor for me as a first-time homebuyer. We went through numerous properties, and even though I found some issue in the majority of them that put me off from making an offer, Tom never showed any frustration at my decisions not to move forward, he simply nodded after hearing my personal view of the property at hand, and then left to continue to search for what he believed to be the next best property for me. After a fairly short time, he found the house that fit the bill, negotiated a price that I considered quite fair, and now I am looking forward to closing on my new property. Tom took care to ensure that I was involved in the home-buying negotiation process, and I felt that he really took an interest in my personal well-being as a prospective homebuyer (he reviewed transit access, schools, and safety with me when selecting properties to view).Tom is a fantastic agent to work with?he really takes the buyer?s interests into account, from both a monetary and a style/preference perspective. He is a consummate professional who knows his business very well, and will take your concerns as a buyer to heart when trying to locate a new home for you.Whether you are a first-time homebuyer or are buying your next upgrade to accommodate a growing family, I strongly recommend that you consider Tom Crimmins for your real estate needs.Best of luck in your property search!"

"My husband and I purchased our home in December 2009. We worked with Tom for around three months to find the perfect balance for my husband and I. We knew we wanted a "fixer-upper" and would be willing to do a lot of work to make it what we wanted.Tom is extremely patient, kind, and hardworking. He knows a lot of people on Staten Island and has great connections to find a great deal. He was willing to get us appointments to see any house we wanted to see, even when he knew it wasn't right for us. His great negotiation skills landed us the "deal of the century!""

"We have been working with Tom for over 10 years in the business sector. He is extremely professional, reliable and most committed. We have had the pleasure of recommending him to our close family members and whom are currently working with Tom for their properties. If you like to work with the best then I recommend that you work with Tom.As a side note: We had listed our home with Tom, which we had quite a few families come in with Tom, but then my husband and I decided not to sell until our son completes his high school years."

"Tom Crimmins is a professional real estate agent! He is a very kind and intelligent man. He was always available to talk to, whether day or night.My fiancee and I were first time home buyers. Tom did not rest until he helped us find the home of our dreams. He is truly an expert at what he does. He is very knowledgeable not only about the homes he was showing us, but also about the neighborhood and local schools. Any questions or concerns he would always take care of. He always had a smile on his face and was a very friendly person. He took his time to know us and what we wanted. I am now set in a beautiful home thanks to Tom. He was able to meet our expectations and more!I have recommended Tom to many of our friends and family members looking to buy or sell homes, and will continue to in the future."

"Bought a home in 2008.My family asked Tom to help us find our first home in 2008. He listened to our needs and understood exactly what we were looking for. He showed us a number of houses and guided us through the process of buying our first home. Tom is an excellent realtor. He knows the neighborhoods and the market. He held our hand throughout the process and helped make the whole experience easy-going and our transition to first time home owner a smooth one. Tom is just an all around great guy. We put our trust in him and are living happily in our home for the past three years. Thanks, Tom!"

"Bought a Single Family home in 2010 for approximately $300k in Great Kills, Staten Island, NY."Tom Terrific", is what my wife Suzie & I call him. Recently married, was looking for a Townhouse in a nice and thriving neighborhood. We lived in Staten Island all our lives and thought we know everything about S.I., but Tom seemed to know more and showed us homes on streets we didn't even know existed. Our wish list on our first home seemed to be impossible to find. Tom was very patient and worked relentless to find our home. My wife & I work alot of hours, but Tom always seemed to work around our schedule, nights, weekends, he always seemed to put us first. I know people say, "its a business, Agents just want the sale", but believe me Tom was very friendly, respectful, and professional. You can't go wrong with "Team Tom"."

"Sold a Single Family home in 2009 in Grymes Hill, Staten Island, NY.Tom was the best real estate agent I have ever dealt with. When I was selling my parents' house, I interviewed several agents and knew that Tom was the go-getter we needed. He immediately held an open house and that day there were 2 offers for the house! The sale was seamless and Tom was an absolute pleasure to deal with. He is compassionate, level-headed, and focused. I have recommended Tom to anyone I know who is buying or selling their house. I HIGHLY recommend Tom."
