Brendan Reilly

We found Brendan after seeing his name on a nearby listing. We were impressed with his straightforward approach, working as an independent broker. He knows the market, advised us how to prepare our home for sale and priced it correctly. Our home sold quickly and and his calm manner and expertise led to a smooth closing. We highly recommend Brendan.

Brendan impressed me with his knowledge, professionalism, and sensitivity. He listened carefully and understood our timeline and financial goals for selling our home. His marketing plan was very effective and we had multiple offers within a few days. Brendan guided us through the terms of each offer and was available to answer questions every step of the way. He made the whole process easy and it was a pleasure doing business with him. Its a great feeling to have complete confidence in your Realtor.

Brendan is a great realtor. He takes the time to fully understand your wants and needs. We never felt pressured and he was very flexible in showing us many houses until we found the perfect one. He is a true professional. I would strongly recommend Brendan to help buy or sell anyone's home! This was my first time working with him and my 4th house buying experience and by far the best. If you are looking in the Philly metro/suburbs area don't hesitate to work with him. We might never be in the market to buy or sell again but if we were we would choose Brendan again.

We have been working with Brendan for the past year and he has been an amazing resource for us while searching for our new home! Brendan took the time to understand exactly what we were looking for and he showed us only the properties that met our needs. Brendan's understanding of the market (both existing homes and new construction) was key for us in making the right decisions. He brought us several creative and out of the box options which ultimately allowed us to find the perfect property at the perfect price point. I would highly recommend Brendan to anyone looking for an honest and hard working real estate professional!

I found Brendan accidentally, by just clicking on his link on Zillow. He took over our listing after we had a bad experience with our previous listing agent, and we had a successful and excellent experience with him. Brendan was always professional, pleasant, responsive, fair and level headed. He always returned our calls or emails promptly and even contacted us pro-actively to discuss next steps. Brendan would spend time listening to our concerns and discussing any issues. He suggested ways of approaching negotiations that I hadn't considered.I highly recommend Brendan to buyers or sellers as an honest, knowledgeable professional that will keep your best interests at the forefront of his actions.

When I started my search, here is what I wanted from my real estate agent:-Expert local market knowledge (specific to my neighborhood) and network. -A constant sense of urgency and proactive communication at all points in the process -Trustworthiness, reliability, and accountability -Comfortable pushing back on my view to ensure decisions were based on facts and strategy, not letting emotion cloud decision-making (e.g. pricing/offers) -Flexibility on business terms, and never any of the big agency fluff that you dont need -A fundamental understanding of the new way real estate is bought/sold. Brendan delivered.I interviewed 7 agents (including several from Fox and Roach, Long and Foster, and Weichert). In the end, Brendan had the best approach, a great level of personal service, excellent experience, and he really wanted to earn our business. I felt like the other agents were relying on their affiliation with a big agency or big local office. In the new model, none of that affiliation matters people dont shop only properties listed in the local big office they use the Internet and don't care about the agency/office, so why use a big firm?If you want a personal recommendation or direct feedback from me on his performance, please contact Brendan and he can connect us via email or phone. I would be happy to speak with any prospect buyers/sellers on his behalf.

Brendan is an intelligent, honest business partner and one whom we now consider a friend. My husband and I were first time home buyers a little less than 1 year ago. Brendan helped us navigate the entire process with ease. His knowlege was outstanding and his advice genuine. My husband and I have looked back on the entire process and could not be happier with our home and the buying process. The way Brendan was able to explain and simplify all that encompassed buying our home was remarkable - we always felt at ease and so comfortable discussing our situation and asking questions. Brendan was available 24/7 and immediately responsive with a phone call. We always felt fully prepared- he kept in constant communication with email reminders of the next steps and what to expect with each part of the transaction. My husband and I feel very blessed to have had Brendan recommended to us and to have been able to work with him.

Brendan was terrific! So helpful in walking me through every step of the process, saving me from one terrible deal then immediately providing other, better options. Kind, responsive, and attentive, even though my purchase was relatively small.

Having little experience with real estate, we were eager to find a realtor who was honest and had our best interest in mind. Thankfully, we found that and more in Brendan Reilly. Brendan was attentive to our needs and wants and was patient with us as we searched for our dream home. His knowledge of the market was outstanding and he shared an enormous amount of information about the surrounding neighborhoods and school districts. Brendan always made us feel as though we were his only clients. He was available to take our calls and returned our emails quickly. We greatly appreciated him walking us all the way through our home purchasing process. From start to finish, his service was seamless. We would highly recommend Brendan to any seller or future home buyer.

Our experience working with Brendan was nothing short of exceptional. One of the keys to a successful realtor-buyer/seller partnership is having a realtor that not only takes the time to listen to and understand your needs upfront in the process, but is able to keep listening to you as things change throughout the process and adapt with you to ensure that there is always close alignment and full support of your goals no matter how much they may change. Brendan was highly proactive in touching base with us and taking time to assess and reassess the many circumstances that arose during our home buying process. However, it was his actions more than words that were a constant reassurance to us that he always had our best interests at heart and was would be 100% supportive of whatever direction we wanted to take. Brendan went the extra mile in many ways as well from preparing detailed excel comp sheets to opening his home to us on week nights and weekends to meet and fill out paper work or discuss strategy. Finally, Brendan is a phenomenal communicator. He was very responsive when we needed him to be and even when time wasn't of the essence, he would always be available to take a phone call or send a follow-up email. We would highly recommend Brendan to anyone considering buying or selling a home on the Main Line.

My wife and I had to relocate quickly and had only limited control over the realtor selection process. Fortunately we were able to work with Brendan and the entire process could not have been smoother. Brendan took the time to carefully walk us through the home valuation process and his expert knowledge of the local market conditions enabled a selling strategy that resulted in multiple offers in a very short timeframe at or above asking price. Brendan's patience, diligence and just general responsiveness to all our questions give me absolutely no hesitation in recommending him to any prospective buyers or sellers in the Main Line area.

Brendan was an absolute pleasure to work with and I highly recommend him to anyone who is considering purchasing a home. Throughout the entire process, Brendan took the time to clearly lay out the mechanics and also our options associated with each step. My wife and I were always informed and at no time did we feel an ounce of pressure. My specific experience was more involved and tedious than a typical home buying experience. Even so, Brendan continued to perform at a high level, offer us plenty of attention, and exceed our expectations. Working with Brendan was more than working with a typical service provider in that he made sure we were comfortable and well informed as if we were family. If you are considering buying a home, I highly recommend you reach out to Brendan. I would ask him to represent me again.

My husband and I just bought our first house and were represented by Brendan Reilly. We met Brendan at an open house he was hosting in Wayne last summer. He was very friendly and seemed to know the Main Line and the market well. We liked his friendly, laid back demeanor (i.e. not pushy) and the time that he took to talk to us during the open house while a lot of other people were walking through. We also liked the fact that he seemed very knowledgeable about the area. When we officially began our house search, Brendan took the time to talk with us about what we were looking for, what price range, what area, etc., and did a comprehensive, thorough search and provided us with at least 80 listings to start. Even though he knew that we were looking for something rather specific, I always got the sense that, not only was he thinking outside the box for us, but that he was also actively searching for new listings for us that we wouldn't necessarily have found or considered on our own. It was clear that he had not simply set us up on the MLS automatic email, but was making an active effort to find us the perfect house. This was important because in this market, houses go really fast. Brendan had his finger on the pulse. Also, he was always ready to show us new listings when we wanted, and made an effort to work us into his busy schedule whenever we wanted to see a new house. As first-time home buyers, we were probably rather indecisive and needed a lot of hand-holding (okay I probably did more so than my husband!), and Brendan was extremely patient and thoughtful. He always listened to our concerns and gave his input when we asked, but never pushed us toward a certain house. Brendan also took us on a LOT of showings, and never seemed to mind. In fact, he told us that we should see as many houses as possible and that when the right house came along, we would know. He was totally right. When we found the house we eventually bought, Brendan picked up on things in the inspections process that we never would have noticed. And while Brendan always had a patient, non-pushy demeanor with us, he was determined to protect our interests during the purchase process, which we really appreciated. We are very happy with Brendan's representation and would absolutely recommend him, and would definitely ask him to represent us again if we were to buy another house down the road!

Our dealings with Brendan Reilly were nothing short of excellent. His professionalism, punctuality and reliability made him an absolute pleasure to deal with, and we have only praise for his work ethic in every respect.As first time home buyers we were relatively nervous and uncertain regarding the entire home buying process. In comparison to any previous and current business relationships, I have never met such a helpful, knowledgeable and hard working individual. Brendan was absolutely tremendous throughout the entire process, from his superior knowledge of areas/locations, to his experience and insightful understanding of critical aspects within a home itself.Brendan was a tremendous help in finding us a home that was within our budget. He was very professional in his approach and was always looking out for our best interest. Brendan always made us feel like we were the only people he was working with. The best we can say is that we began this process with a realtor and left with a trustworthy friend.

I consider myself a savvied shopper, otherwise I would not be a featured seller on the Amazon Marketplace. So obviously for a new home purchase, I shopped around and eventually Brendan was my choice and it surely was the right one. I asked myself what I want from an agent and came up the following: 1) help me to get the home with lowest possible price; 2) offer me the best possible input regarding value of the house itself, the community as we explored opportunities in several different areas, ranging from Blue Bell to Malvern; 3) timely response and service since my time is extremely limited, which often means weekends, late afternoons; 4) credible referrals to other services involved in this home purchase since we are new to this area. And I got all of these from Brendan. In addition, the tiny details, for instance, the way Brendan introduced about the house, the good and bad; the way he leads us to the properties; the overall way he communicated with us; all made me believe that he cared about our interests and concerns as clients, rather than focusing on getting his pay cut for a sale. What else, along with all the above things that I mentioned, would you ask from an agent? I am sure if I purchase another home in the future I would give him a call, and I hope you would too!

Brendan is very knowledgeable and realistic about real estate and has a good grasp on the area and clearly communicates his thoughts on potential houses and neighborhoods. I especially appreciate his no-nonsense approach, that made him very efficient to work with. He responded almost immediately to my emails, even at odd hours, and he made himself available as much as we needed him. In the end we found a house that was a very good fit and he helped negotiating the price down. We recommend Brendan to all!

Brendan recently helped my fiancee and I close on our first house and it was a great experience with his guidance & expertise. He got back to my initial e-mail to meet within a few hours and we met a few days later. He totally understood what we were looking for and didn't try to steer us out of our target area / price range, which was very specific. Once we got the search going, Brendan encouraged us to see as many houses as possible and we took him up on that and he was always able to accommodate our requests. Brendan was very helpful while looking at houses due to his experience in renovating houses, so was able to quickly tell us approximate costs to take walls down, replace hot water heaters, renovate a bathroom, etc. which was great in allowing us to compare houses in various conditions with different features (cost to add another bathroom, etc.). He basically does a high level home inspection as you view the houses and let's you know what things would cost to get to pass inspection, what to look out for, etc..Once we found the house, negotiating went very well and his comp analysis was very easy to understand and helpful. Once we had an agreement, Brendan did a great job walking us through all of the legal documents (no need for a lawyer) and provided great recommendations for a mortgage company, all of the inspectors (home, chimney, insect) and then provided a great e-mail that tells you what utilities to set up, numbers to call, etc. All in all, a great experience. We started our search for a realtor based on reviews, and everyone else was right - Brendan is great and we will definitely use his services in the future if need be. Thanks Brendan!

Brendan was great and went above and beyond for me as I wanted to sell my home in Wayne. Previously Brendan had helped me purchase my home 2 years ago and his professionalism and compassion were two of many reasons I used Brendan to sell the home. He always made himself available for any questions i had about the process of selling a home. His knowledge of the area and about homes in general is outstanding. He was able to correctly price my home and his attention to detail helped the house sell quickly. He provided the personal care that you deserve as a seller, but don't always get. Should I need to, I wouldn't use anyone other than Brendan for selling/buying a home.

Brendan recently guided us through the new construction buying process. He was extremely knowledgeable in both the negotiation and new construction transaction process, as well as the hands on details involved in working the builder to design the new construction. Ultimately, we ended up with the house we were looking for and were not overwhelmed with the process of working with the builder. We truly believe that it would have been a much more difficult path without Brendan's guidance on the process, his availability, and seamless interaction.

It's not everyday that your agent has to take the time to move your sales price north of your estimate. Trust this expert and you won't regret it!Brendan was a God send!

Brendan has impressive insight into the home market. He is extremely attentive to emails and phone calls. He is flexible with his availability to meet and show homes. He offers advice based on his experience and research into the area, yet patient and respectful allowing you to make your own informed decisions during the process. We never felt pushed or hurried to make a decision before we were ready. Brendan has invaluble knowledge reguarding structure, utilities, functionality, resale potential, ect. of homes which we have found extremely helpful. We highly recommend Brendan and his expertise to anyone buying or selling a home in the area. We wouldn't work with anyone else!

In preparation for selling our home, we were initially attracted to Brendan's company because of his reduced commission program. However upon meeting with Brendan we quickly realized that his knowledge of the local real estate market, coupled with his detailed and analytical approach to marketing homes was an additional, unexpected benefit. We have sold a number of homes in the past and Brendan displayed a much higher level of professionalism and knowledgeability than we had experienced in past transactions, and he provided these benefits at a lower commission rate than we have paid previously. We would enthusiastically recommend him as a real estate professional for your next sale or purchase.

Brendan was very professional in all aspects of listing our house and in helping find our new home. He wa very patient and honest throughout the entire process.We never felt pressured. We would highly recommend Brendan and would accept phone calls from prospective buyers or sellers.

Brendan was wonderful to work with and I highly recommend him for your real estate needs. He helped us find our perfect home by honing in on what we were looking for and was so patient with us while we figured that out. The entire process was smooth and stress-free because Brendan handled it so professionally. As someone who works in the real estate world myself, I know that honest and smart agents like Brendan are few and far between, so you'd be lucky to have him representing you.

Brendan was such an amazing agent to work with. This was the first time we purchased a home, and he made sure we saw enough homes to learn what we really wanted. He is very enthusiastic about his job. After a few days working with him, he could easily understand our needs as a family. I didn't feel rushed or pressured to make a decision. My husband and I have a very tight work schedule, Brendan was always understanding and accommodated our requests without hesitation. He is also an excellent advocate for his clients. We have no doubts that whenever we need to buy/sell another property, Brendan will be the first person we will contact. Thank you for making our experience so positive.

My husband and I were very pleased with Brendan's expertise, support, guidance, and execution throughout the pricing, marketing, and selling of our home in Chesterbrook. Brendan knows the market well, demonstrates wisdom when pricing a home, and is an absolute pleasure to work with--in addition to his expertise, Brendan has a great personality. You can trust him. His philosophy of pricing homes right--not too high, not too low--may seem obvious, but when you talk with him you will discover that he actually knows what your home will sell for and how to price it so that it sells for the maximum in minimum time. You do not want to overprice your home just to reduce it to the price you should have listed it for on day one. Brendan makes use of market data and will be realistic with you.Although numerous homes were for sale in our area, we're very confident that more people came to our open house than any other. We had an offer the first day of showings and three offers the day after our first (and only) open house. The offer we went with was full asking price in all cash. We are happy and the buyer is happy (according to our old neighbors). What makes Brendan stand out is his trustworthiness, personality, knowledge, good judgment, and fee structure. We are glad we used him and highly recommend you use him to sell your home, too.

We had been casually looking at Zillow for housing in the area for a while. When we were ready to seriously start looking, I looked at reviews of realtors on Zillow. We had worked with a number of realtors in the past in previous sales/purchases of homes and the quality was poor to mediocre. Since we were looking to finally invest in our forever home, we needed to enlist the A-team! Thats when we came across Brendans profile on Zillow. We contacted him based on the pages of positive reviews. While we were a bit hesitant because he wasnt under any of the big name real estate brokers, once we met him we knew he was the right choice. Brendan provided value throughout the process. He was always available to look at a house and encouraged us to look at as many as possible so that when we found the one, there was no question and we could jump on it quickly. He knew the area we were looking at well and provided us valuable information when considering each house. When we finally found the house that we bought, he provided us data to establish a fair offer. I have to say, with the brokers that we worked with in the past we felt like it was a guessing game with no real logic/information backing the offer price. Brendan was able to help us through the process of solidifying the offer, working through inspections and ultimately closing on the house. We could not be any happier with his service level and personal touch! In fact, we will be engaging him for the sale of our old house as soon as we are ready. He really is the A-team and we would recommend him to anyone!

Brendan is a professional, knowledgeable, trustworthy agent. He was very knowledgeable about the Mainline area. He was very patient during the negotiation period and kept me calm when I needed it most. He was very responsive and respectful. He had no problems with explaining the answers to my questions over and over again without losing his calmness. He has many contacts in this field which made my experience seamless and easy. He was willing to go the extra mile to help me have a piece of mind during a very stressful and complicated period. Overall I do recommend Brendon and when is time to buy/sell another home, he will definetly be my agent.

Brendan is an extremely thoughtful real estate guide. As clients who were new to the process and learning the greater Wayne neighborhood Brendan had valuable insights that really helped us navigate through our home search. We happened to meet Brendan on a wet, snowy winter evening after work (the type of nights when most agents would cancel) and he was a tremendous resource for us in the 4 months we were house hunting. Brendan knows his market like the back of his hand, and offers practical advice on everything from remodeling ideas to location and neighborhoods. We would recommend Brendan without hesitation for anyone buying a home in the Mainline area.

Brendan is extraordinarily knowledgeable about the Wayne/PA area, as well as about real estate & construction in general. With a professional and calm demeanor, he was fully dedicated to achieving our goals. All that said, what differentiates Brendan from other agents with whom we've worked over the last ~10 years is his analytical capacity, especially in terms of evaluating the true market value of a property, which assured that we'd not over-pay for a house. His analytical and leadership skills also helped by keeping everyone's emotions to a minimum during the negotiation/inspection process, resulting in a very smooth transaction. Brendan has set incredibly high standards for any other real estate professionals with whom we may need to work in the future - We highly recommend him!

Brendan understands the whole cost of selling a home, from my time commitment to time-on-market, his fees, the buyer's agent's fees, as well as all the other fees on the HUD form and helped me get the best return. He did an excellent job at researching the comparable in the area and helping me come to a fair listing price-an appraiser could do no better job. He also shot lovely pictures of my house's interior with a special lens on his camera which highlighted even the smallest rooms particularly well. In all, he's a great realtor and I recommend him highly.

If you want the best agent in the Wayne area, and the Mainline in general, your only logical option is to go with Brendan. He knows the market in the area inside and out, and is masterful in his management of the home selling experience. We came in to the listing process with our own thoughts and ideas, Brendan shared his expertise, priced our house correctly, and got us a full price offer the first day on the market. That in itself was amazing, but it was all the little things after that that made Brendan exceptional. We had already moved out of the area to the west coast, and Brendan helped to seamlessly manage every aspect of the sale process for us in our absence. He even once stopped by after a storm had knocked out power to the neighborhood, just to check in and make sure everything in the house was okay. His experience, his knowledge, and his genuine caring for our experience made for the best possible outcome for us with the sale of our home.

Brendan is a true Professional. Although he offers a reduced commission, his time and efforts far exceed any other agent I've worked with making double his commission. Trust, integrity, hard work and professionalism are just a few words to describe him. Brendan recently sold a property of mine and I was very pleased with the outcome. I highly recommend Brendan if you are looking for a seasoned professional who has the expertise and experience that Main Line clients want, need and deserve.

Brendan was a pleasure to work with. He was prepared, professional and a calming force during a not-so-calm process. His response time made us feel that we were his only client and his knowledge and research enabled us to list our house at the right price. Selling the house on the first day it was on the market was the final piece that justified our choosing Brendan as our realtor.

Brendan was a patient listener and made excellent recommendations that gave me confidence from the start. He was spot on in his pre-listing suggestions for home improvements and suggested that others I was considering were not worth the expense. We initially put the house on the market to excellent interest but a health-related suspension of the listing in the fall brought us back in during the more sluggish, late winter pace in the housing market. No one was shopping under a blanket of snow and frigid weather. When it was evident that interest began to slow, Brendan made suggestions that put us right back in the game, and resulted in a quick sale at a really good price. He is courteous, kind, energetic, patient, professional and always mindful of his client's best interests. Couple that with wonderful local knowledge and finesse in the financials, and he has earned my highest recommendations. It is a bonus that he does all this at reduced commission rates. I was delighted with the process and the results, all thanks to Brendan.

Working with Brendan to sell our house was an awesome experience. He had sophisticated market knowledge with statistics to back up his methodology and priced our house correctly. He was able to attract multiple showings within a very short time (over holidays too), and we sold our house within 10 days with multiple offers. Brendan was extremely helpful and knowledgeable with handling the inspection negotiation process. All in all, Brendan was a fantastic agent and we would highly recommend using his services.

Brendan is a gem. The sale of my parent's home was emotional and difficult but Brendan was both knowledgeable & supportive! We met with many real estate agents & he was the only one who listened to what we wanted vs.telling us what they wanted us to do for them. I've recommended him to several friends & would not hesitate to use him again. He is an extremely ethical individual in a field where you don't always that way!

Brendan sold my place in Wayne. He was very knowledgeable about the market & possessed great communication skills. I never felt in the dark & would highly recommend him to other sellers.

Brendan has a broad knowledge of the housing industry, not only of overall market trends but also of construction which is a big plus if you're considering purchasing a home that needs updating/renovations or repairs. He was able to answer any question we threw at him. He has great negotiating skills and good instincts for both sides of a deal. He works hard, is accessible and very patient. We really enjoyed working with him and would highly recommend him to anyone buying or selling a house.

It is our pleasure to recommend Brandon Reilly as your next realtor. If you are looking for an assistant buyer as opposed to a real estate salesman, then Brendan is your man. Brendan is second to none when it comes to knowledge in the real estate market. There is not a question he cannot answer; whether it comes to variances, zoning, taxes, home additions, property division, pricing or mortgage issues he has the answers. In selling our home, Brendan took all the proper steps to execute a fast and lucrative turnaround. He told us what we had to do to get our house in selling condition. What we appreciated most though was his honesty. Brendan was a part of our team, if the house wasnt for us he told us, if a house was overpriced he told us and if the house needed too much work, he told us. He looked out for us. It was important that we could rely on his expertise since we were real estate novices. I assure you Brendan Reilly will bring you the results you are looking for.

My family was very impressed with Brendan Reilly's vast knowledge of the real estate market. He was thorough in explaining things to my elderly father. Brendan advised him about two necessary home improvements. Dad chose Crescent Real Estate because of Brendan's intelligence and down to earth personality. In addition, neither of the other two mainline realtors suggested either of the two needed improvements to dad's 54 year old house. I would like to thank Brendan for his suggestions of dependable contractors to use and his advice to me on fair pricing for these services. He showed a sincere interest in helping my dad and answering my numerous questions. Thank you Brendan!

Brendan is a superstar. We fired our prior realtor, and brought in Brendan to save the day. The difference Brendan brought in terms of in expertise, approach to the process and knowledge was dramatic. Brendan is extremely knowledgeable and detail-oriented. The little things mattered and he took the time to advise us in expert fashion on details big and small. He was also unafraid to give it to us straight. His advice and expertise was the difference in getting our house sold. We live in Radnor Township PA and his knowledge of the homes, people, trends, developments in the area was immense. If you live anywhere in the Radnor, Wayne, T/E, Lower Merion or nearby areas - no need to consider anyone else. Brendan is the best.

Brendan was easy to work with and extremely knowledgeable about the market conditions that impact the sale of your property. He uses the sales and marketing real estate data from your area to help you make an informed decision on the sale price of your home. He uses many different data points so, as a seller, you do not over price or under price your house. Because our property was priced appropriately, it sold in 4 days. We had multiple buyers that were interested in our home. This is what Brendan does best, prep you as a seller, market your house and build on your home's strengths. He walks you through every step from staging, to repair, to marketing, sale, and closing. He has my strongest recommendation.
