The most knowledgeable real estate agent I met all of last year; not too intrusive while showing properties and was able to comply with all of my requests from day 1 of showing properties to closing. Made my entire experience completely turnkey and easy… highly recommended to anyone in the Westchester, NY area.

“Ralph is a good listener. He digests the information that is most important to a client’s needs. He is knowledgeable about property values and locations and creates a profile of his clients based upon these factors and their requests. In addition, Ralph is familiar with the paperwork necessary for the purchase of particular types of properties. His feedback is not generic rather more specific to the client’s ideas, perceptions, and perspective on properties viewed. I would highly recommend Ralph to friends or family that is in need of a good realtor.”

"With the help of Ralph Ragette, we purchased a coop in White Plains, NY. Ralph Ragette was extremely knowledgeable about the area and the market. Ralph Ragette was very courteous and a pleasure to work with. He made the purchasing process very easy."

Ralph was very proactive at setting up showings and was able to point things out about the homes that I would not have considered important. Everything that Ralph was involved in went very smoothly. He worked well with the seller’s realtor, my bank, and my lawyer through the whole process. There are a lot of horror stories on the internet about home purchases gone wrong, but this was certainly not one of them. I always felt he was looking out for my best interest

I had been working with another broker on a deal that fell through before meeting Ralph, and it became clear after meeting with Ralph only once that his knowledge and expertise were what we needed.

I was always kept in the loop and up to date about any new homes on the market in my price range or during any step of the home purchase.

Ralph was exactly what we needed, but we didn’t even realize it until he came along unexpectedly!

Kate Lennon

Mount Kisco, NY

I wholeheartedly recommend Ralph if you're looking to buy or sell your home and have in fact recommended him to numerous friends in the past. To date everyone I have sent Ralph's way has been more than pleased with his work.

Saying thank you doesn’t seem to really cover how grateful I am to you for all the time and effort you put in finding the perfect house for me. Our journey together was certainly a long one but definitely well worth it and memorable. When all others tried to push me to locations I didn’t want to be in and far above my price range, you made sure that was not going to happen even when I had doubts. Your patience is by far immeasurable as is your sense of humor. You more than entertained some of my mother’s requests and some of my bad picks. There was never an unanswered questioned. If I wanted to know about electric amps, oil tank gallons, load bearing walls or ridge vents you made sure that I had an answer where as others told me the inspector will worry about that stuff. You never got frustrated by my “teacher need to know curiosity.” There was never a time when I didn’t fully understand how processes were carried out and what steps to take next. I appreciate the respect and consideration that you always gave especially when I was indecisive. You were always ready with great advice and a list of pros and cons to help out. You truly are a superb agent!!!! Agent of the Year in my opinion!!! If it wasn’t for you, I wouldn’t be holding the keys to my house. All of your clients, myself included, are truly lucky to work with someone as intelligent, honest, trusting, patient and hard working as you. Many thanks again and wishes for success.

We are so thankful for having you as our real estate agent, and friend. The sale on the house (8) days was truly a miracle and couldn’t believe how fast it sold. Very happy to have received the offer we did. Despite what I saw after my visit there, I am happy that we got the profit I was hoping for.

Mike and I enjoyed searching for houses with you! Even when it came down to crunch time, you were there to make those appointments. (Even when I was hoping you were wrong on some having an offer already). I guess all happens for a reason and we found a house, now home that we love. Kaiden sure loves to run up and down the Living Room.

You made the experience enjoyable and fun. There is a part of me that still wants to look at houses just to see what else is out there. For now….. I am content hahaha

Thank you for everything and we will have you over when painting and everything is completed.

Have a wonderful day and keep in touch.

When we started our house search we were new to Westchester County and needed a real estate agent that could be patient with us as we learned about all the different areas. Ralph did just that as he showed us houses all over Westchester for about a year until finally we found the town and house for us. He was great through the buying and closing process and answered our questions quickly and clearly. Ralph was professional from the time we met him but also friendly and a pleasant person to spend a Saturday with. I highly recommend Ralph to those starting their home search!

For the longest time since the big sale I have been meaning to send you a royal testimonial showing appreciation in all you had done in taking the time and effort in explaining, or should I say educating, me in how the real estate business works. Your professionalism is superb and your kindness and patience was well received.

“Throughout this process he was nothing but professional and helpful. He was also knowledgeable, diligent and hard-working. Most importantly, he was very tactful and respectful. What mattered to me as well was that Ragetté Real Estate is a family owned business. Both Ralph and his company definitely had the hands-on approach and were always ready to answer any questions or resolve any concerns I had through the process. The personal approach is seldom found in today’s market that is saturated with big impersonal real estate companies.”

Ralph is easy to work with, patient and is not easily flustered. He has good knowledge of the local area and has good observation and can spot features in homes that can be useful or potentially a problem. We would recommend Ralph as he is not pushy for the buyers.... Read More

Ralph is easy to work with, patient and is not easily flustered. He has good knowledge of the local area and has good observation and can spot features in homes that can be useful or potentially a problem.

We would recommend Ralph as he is not pushy for the buyers. We are sure he can handle the representation when we need to sell our home as well.

Ralph Ragette is highly recommended by us.

Keep doing business the same way and do not change a thing! Thank you for all of your help!

Robert Grosso

I highly recommend Ralph, he is knowledgeable and professional. I truly believe that he put the same amount of energy and effort into renting my studio co-op as he would have put into selling a large house. In the future, when I sell I will definitely call Ralph.

He is an excellent agent and I really appreciate his personality and professional help in purchasing my current apartment. As a buyer agent, he played an active role in between me and the sellers agent and even with my attorney. When we have trouble in arranging a quick closing date, he was the one to solve the problem. I owe him great thanks. Surely I will recommend him to anyone I know. If the top score is 10, I will give him 11!

Thank you for being there! When other Realtors turned their backs on us in a month, you walked beside us until we found the right home. You listened when others didn’t. When others showed us homes they wanted to sell, you showed us ones we wanted to buy. Because of your patience, understanding, skill, resources and knowledge of the business, you helped us close on the right choice! You truly are a good soul!

Thanks so much for all your help, patience, and advice during our selling/buying process. We're making fixes now and are very excited to move in soon. Thanks for making it possible and for making a potentially stressful process an easy one!
