Testimonials

“The Riley-Maher Real Estate Team is the ONLY team to get the job done in my opinion. I have worked with this group over the last five years now, and not only do I trust that they will get the job done, but I trust that they will steer me in the right direction. They take care of the real estate process with the upmost professionalism, and are always honest. They always ensure that their clients are happy and satisfied, and they stand by your side every step of the way. I always recommend this team, and I personally continue to use them.”

“I can not express how grateful I am to The Riley-Maher real estate team. From the minute that we met with Cindy for the first time, we were so comfortable and knew that we had found the right people to find us our first home. Cindy and Jess went above and beyond to find us the right house for us. We are now settled and couldn’t be happier in our home. Throughout the entire process, we knew this team had our best interest in mind.”

“The Riley-Mayer team is second to none - these ladies are the most knowledgeable, honest, thorough, and warm group to work with! Most importantly, I trust them COMPLETELY!!! I am sure I will be buying and selling again in the future, and without a doubt, I will be working with Riley and associates! Look no further!!”

“My husband and I would highly recommend this team of ladies! We have used them 3 times with our real estate transactions. This last time was in May of 2018. We had to move out of town and put our home on the market. They made doing a long distance real estate transaction so easy. They went up and beyond the call of duty to help get our house sold in a timely and efficient way. From calling contractors to help get repairs done to meeting them at the house and checking that things were done properly after the repair was done. They even checked on the house to make sure everything was OK once a week since we weren't living there without us asking them to do so. This is the best team in the area to help you with your real estate transaction! And, so easy to work with. Thank you so much for all that you do!”

“The Riley-Maher Team were a dream team. They worked together so cohesively, were always prompt to reply to my messages, and truly helped me with every step of the process. I knew they were the team for me when they told me they'd stick with me no matter how long it took to find my dream home. And they did!”

“I cannot say enough wonderful things about The Riley-Team. This is the third time I have used them. I will list the things that are so unique about this team. 1. Deeply caring individuals 2. Extremely knowledgeable 3. Highly efficient 4. Think outside the box 5. Fair to all To sum it up, they are second to none.”

“This was our first home purchase, so we don't have much to compare to, but we doubt there is a real estate group out there that is more knowledgeable, responsive and friendly than the Riley-Maher Team. Would absolutely recommend if you are getting into the housing market!”

“Thank you for everything you did to help us sell our home and property. Your guidance and support throughout the process is very appreciated. Your ideas for helping us get the house ready to show, the amazing photographers you engaged, the contractors you found for us, the great web-site you created, your communications with agents representing prospective buyers, and so much more were instrumental in the sale. We appreciate your flexibility, your patience with us, and how well you kept us informed during the process. We felt that we were more than just a client to you - and that you really cared. To anyone looking for an agent to help them sell their house, we would give you our highest recommendation.”

“Dear Jess, I just wanted to thank you again for listening to my whole life story and helping me to finally get into a home of my own. I really appreciate your patience, guidance and professionalism throughout the process and I will continue to recommend you and your team to friends and colleagues. I really cannot thank you enough for helping to make this happen!”

“Cindy and Jess, as first time homebuyers we were extremely anxious about the process and had no idea what to expect. We appreciate that you took the time to get to know us and were patient but also direct and helped to keep us focused. Having the three of you as a team made the response times short, we receive the best advice and insight, and overall made for a pleasant experience. We could not have asked for a better team to work with and we cannot thank you enough for helping us find our dream home.”

“The Riley-Maher Team is simply wonderful. It was our first time buying a house and we really had no clue what we were doing. Cindy and Jess took us by the hand and walked us through each step. They answered our million and one questions and were patient and reassuring throughout the entire process. What I most appreciated is that they really listened to what we wanted in a home and concentrated on what was best for us. They were never pushy. They were our advocates in every way. Their honesty and professionalism were refreshing. Seven months after our closing and we are still reaching out to them for recommendations ranging from home improvements to landscaping to tax help. Thanks again, ladies! You are amazing.”

“Jess and Cindy, thank you all so much for all your incredible work. Your team is amazing and you set the bar incredibly high for real estate agents. We will surely recommend you to anyone and everyone we know who wants to sell a house in B'more area.”

“Dear Cindy, my partner, Kris Kudrnac, and I have been working with Jessica Maher in our search for a new home. We both want you to know [as the Broker] how impressed we have been with her. Not only has Jessica been able to quickly understand the type of house we are searching for (which I can assure you is no small feat, given our preferences and our need for a large house!), she has demonstrated professionalism and savvy beyond her years. Additionally, Jessica has responded to all of my emails in a timely manner, and she has followed up on every request or suggestion I’ve made. I’m sure you’re very proud to have her as part of your team.”

“We talk about you guys all the time to our friends and family! We loved working with you both! When we tell our story people are just amazed!”

“Cindy and Jess, I just wanted to let you know how happy I am in my new home and how well things are going. I couldn’t be more happy with my choice and don’t have a single complaint. The neighborhood is so pleasant, and I absolutely love the setting; it’s so close to the park but literally a mile from the beltway. Also, I couldn’t be more pleased with how great both of you were throughout the whole process. From searching to settling I was comfortable knowing that I had the best help available, and I was at peace knowing that you wouldn’t let me make a huge mistake. So again, THANKS!”

“Most realtors probably would not want us for a client. We had considerations like home office, budget, in-law quarters, and four young kids. And the market still had not recovered from the crash of 2008. Nobody thought it was going to be easy. But the Riley-Maher Team took us on and did an amazing job. Some of their recommendations seemed counter-intuitive to us novices at the time, but we learned to trust their insight as we saw it work. When we made the changes to the house as they suggested, we got multiple offers within 48 hours. When we sold the house before buying the next one, our negotiation power increased. When we followed their pace in the negotiation process, we ended up getting more than we expected. They even managed to accommodate multiple requests for showings over several months when finding the right home felt impossible. I’m sure there are other good realtors out there who will write a good contract, or help you find a home inspector, or even get you a good price. But it’s hard to imagine a team better equipped in this area with the right balance of wisdom, connections, and sometimes just dogged determination to find you the right fit. We are all happy here. Twelve thumbs up.”

“You guys have done a lot of work. This is a tough business, hard negotiations, lots of follow up with contractors, detailed paperwork—you make it look easy. At each turn you knew what to do, had good intuition and insight. You’ve been fabulous at helping us upgrade the house, gave us great direction for making changes, protected our best interests so that we don’t over-spend on upgrades, and still helped us get a good selling price after all that work. We could not expect a better job!”

““When we first met with The Riley-Maher Team to discuss the sale of our home, we felt an immediate connection with them that has grown into what we now treasure as a lifetime friendship. Cindy’s very seasoned knowledge and understanding of the real estate market, combined with the Team’s technical knowledge and understanding of how (and where) to promote the highlights of our home, are a powerfully successful combination. Our home was sold in four (4!) days to a wonderful couple thanks to that teamwork. We highly recommend the Riley-Maher Team to anyone looking to list or purchase a home. You will certainly be working with the best!”

“We are finally feeling a bit settled and wanted to take a moment to thank you for all of your help in selling our beloved family home. It was a tough move for us but your team helped us deal with every aspect of the selling process in such a wonderful and caring yet professional manner. You answered all of our many questions with unending patience, handled all the frustrations of an unresponsive contractor and freely gave your professional real estate wisdom. I think most importantly for us we feel like we made friends along the way. You went above and beyond and we would certainly recommend your services to anyone that is interested in buying or selling a home. Best wishes to you all!”

“The Riley-Maher Team was excellent and quick helping us to sell an investment property in Monkton. It is so wonderful to be able to completely trust a professional, especially when we did not know what we were doing. When I first met Cindy I knew she was a person I would like to work with; there was no hard sell or jargon I had to wade through, and she is a kind person happy to answer our many questions to guide us through the process. For such an important part of life that we don’t do very often (so are not very schooled in), it is a relief to have a team like the Riley-Maher Team.”

“Jess was a delight to work with and spent so much more time and energy than I ever expected in trying to find just the right home for me! My interactions with the rest of the team were also fantastic - I highly recommend her and the whole team!”

“When you’re a return client, I think that speaks for itself, and that’s exactly what my husband and I were when it came time to sell the home Cindy & Jess played a huge role in helping us purchase 4 years ago. We never even considered anyone else; you don’t have to after working with the Riley-Maher Team the first time. They represent both sides of any real estate transaction with the utmost of professionalism; their experience in the industry combined with their personal knowledge of our geographic area are absolutely invaluable resources to have on your side whether you are a buyer or seller. We are pretty buttoned up people and expect the same from those on “our team” and the Riley-Maher Team lives up to and/or exceeds every expectation. We highly recommend the Riley-Maher Team and would work with them again in a minute!”

“Anyone looking for a fantastic realtor team who I really can’t say enough great things about. From her market analysis, attention to detail, and total guidance and wisdom throughout the entire process. Please consider using Jess Maher. Truly thankful to have had her.”

“A HUGE thanks to our amazing real estate team Jess and Cindy (and their team). We couldn’t have done it without you amazing ladies and we WOULDN’T want to. You guys made this process smoother, were amazing sounding boards, and so patient with our seemingly never ending search!”

“Working with Jess and the team was one of the best highlights from a rough 2020. We feel like we not only had the best professional in real estate, but truly gained a friend. If you’re considering buying, selling, or even just have a question, reach out to The Riley-Maher Team, and thank yourself for doing so. I can’t say enough about how great our experience was! It was an honor and blessing to have met and worked with you all!”

“Jess, Cindy and the rest of this team were amazing! They truly listened to our needs, our goals in this purchase and they made sure we never compromised those initial needs and goals. We were so excited to be In the market for finding a home and perfect fit for our large family. However this market got a little frustrating because we clearly weren’t the only ones bidding and looking! Many times I either wanted to settle for less or even give up. However, these ladies were the most helpful, positive, professional, honest, dedicated, available women ever! They met us out day and night, weekends if need be as well. With their patience, knowledge, and constant encouragement we found the perfect home. I have never been happier and literally love coming HOME❤️ They were the absolute best and I highly recommend this team to anyone in need of selling or buying their home!”

“I want to let you know I’ve appreciated your support and leadership throughout the process of selling my condo. Thank you Jess for paving the way. I know that you work as a cohesive group and I was at ease knowing the Riley-Maher Team was at the helm. From the start, I was so impressed with how organized the communication was and felt educated on next steps as each new development unfolded. The marketing alone was top notch, and what can be an overwhelming process felt quite manageable! I’m excited for what the future holds as I search for our next place to call home. I start this process with such confidence because of your team. My best to all of you.”

“When we decided to sell our home, we were overwhelmed by the thought of navigating all of the details of the sales process. However, our friends recommended working with Jess Maher, and we are so thankful they did!! Jess is knowledgeable, kind, and professional. She cared about every facet of our sale, from the emotional part of leaving a place we loved to the fine-print details of the offers we received. And more than just caring, she is GOOD at what she does. She helped us with ideas to prep our home, arranged for top-notch photos and marketing, and then kept us informed with regular communication each day, all leading to a result better than we even could’ve hoped for. Her team made the process as easy and seamless as possible. We wouldn’t hesitate to call them again when we sell our next house. If you’re looking for an agent too, call them - you couldn’t make a better choice than the Riley-Maher Team!”

“Dear Cindy, It was an absolute pleasure working with you and your team. I’m so grateful for the expertise and thorough explanations during the whole process of selling my father’s house. Thank you so much for your guidance. I know the outcome of our sale was so favorable because of your skilled negotiating and knowledge of the real estate business. Thanks also for the gift cars. Very thoughtful!”

“If someone wants to sell their house with confidence they should hire the Riley-Maher Team for hard effective work, clear communication and results!”

“Cindy and Jess made our selling experience as pleasant and convenient for us as anyone could imagine. Questions and issues were handled professionally and quickly. They were a delight to work with. Aside from the closing which was out of their control, you couldn’t have asked for better service or results.”

“Worth every penny and then some. Selling and buying a home out of state can be tremendously stressful. However, this team was ON IT. Every single detail was handled in advance. There were no last minute hiccups, as they knew what was coming and had worked everything out in advance. They handled things that we didn’t even know were coming. Their experience and knowledge made this as easy as possible for us. Like most people, we were originally concerned about how much a Realtor would cost. After this experience, we would have gladly paid more. They were invaluable to us. The stress that they shouldered for our family was incalculable. I would most certainly recommend them to family.”

“Our agent Jess attended to every detail. She was very professional and sensitive to our situation and needs. Jess explained in detail the financial aspects and walked us through some forms. Cindy & Jess worked great as a team.”

“Jess Maher was very knowledgeable, organized, patient and looked out for our best interest every step of the way. I would recommend Jess to anyone interested in buying or selling a property.”

“We are completely blown away with this amazing group. Every single tiny detail was accounted for and managed by Jess Maher and her team. Their knowledge of everything related to selling and listing our home gained us more than we had hoped for, making it SO much easier than we ever knew it could be. I hardly ever post anything publicly, but I am making the exception here because she is honestly the absolute best!! I have told everyone I know about them, and will continue to do so. THANK YOU for everything!!!!”

“Dear Cindy, it was an absolute pleasure working with you and your team. I’m so grateful for your expertise and thorough explanations during the whole process of selling my father’s house. Thank you so much for your guidance. I know the outcome of our sale was so favorable because of your skilled negotiating and knowledge of the real estate business.”

“Jess and her team are amazing at what they do and they go far and beyond other realtors that I've used. Jess is singlehandedly responsible for convincing us to even consider touring our current (dream) home. It was a soft maybe based on the listing but once she persuaded us that the house was a must-see, we toured, we were enchanted, and we were sold; her intuition was absolutely correct. In addition, her recommendations, including mortgage lender and home services like septic and carpet, have been spot on. We love our new home, thanks so much for everything!”

“We are so grateful for your expertise in all ways, and wish to thank you for helping us navigate the condo sale! You all have so many reasons to be proud of the work you do; you possess a terrific blend of personable natures with top-notch professionalism! Thank you.”

“Thank you for everything you have done for us over the past couple of months. You all have made buying in this market as stress-free as it could possibly be! Thank you x1000!”

“We made the decision to sell my parents' condo on our own and save the real estate agent fees. It's a seller's market, how hard could it be? We had a buyer, a signed contract, inspections done, even a tentative settlement date. Out of the blue, the sellers backed out, seems they found another property over the weekend. They used the wording in the contract to get out of the sale, even though we had been in constant contact with them and those issues weren't an issue....until they were. So, lots of time and effort down the drain. We then made the right decision and contacted the Riley-Maher Team. We met with Cindy Riley and the ball started rolling - in the right direction - immediately. Professional pictures were taken, brochures were made, the condo was listed and the showings started being scheduled the same day it hit the market. We had 5 showings in 2 days and 2 offers in 5 days. We were offered $7,500 over asking price with no contingencies! Cindy and her team handled everything, I couldn't believe how smoothly (and quickly) everything was moving forward! Settlement went off without a hitch and we walked out with over $2,000 more than we would have if our "for sale by owner" deal had gone through! For sale by owner?? Never Again! The Riley-Maher Team will be our "go to" team from now on!!”

“We just recently settled on our very first home! If you are looking to buy I’d highly recommend this team. I am nine months pregnant and to my surprise it was such a stress free experience. We had the pleasure of working with Kaylin and she was fantastic! She listened to all of our concerns and she was readily available with an answer to our questions. She was extremely knowledgeable and I couldn’t recommend this team enough!!!”

“Our decision to hire Cindy Riley as our real estate agent was settled in our minds after our first meeting. We liked Cindy’s candid and personable advice about preparing our home for sale and her presentation of experience and knowledge of the real estate business. It took us more than a year to make the final decision to list our house on the market and during this time Cindy was available to answer questions and guide us through the process. Once we decided to sell, Cindy and her team responded quickly and proficiently on all matters from brochures, working as liaison with a multitude of buyer agents, helping us choose the best offer and securing a solid contract. After the sale, Cindy continued working on our behalf right through our moving-out date. We recommend Cindy Riley without hesitation or reservation. We wish we had another house to sell as we will certainly miss her.”

“Working with Cindy and Jess was a breeze from start to finish. They made me feel comfortable throughout the entire process and were always available no matter the time of day and even on the weekends. Cindy went above and beyond to find me the exact condo that I was hoping for. I am forever grateful for her hard work and dedication. I will be recommending the Riley-Maher Team to my friends and family. Thank you all!”

“Thank you so much for helping sell my condo in Bel Air. And you did it without even me being there. We got the price we asked for. And the condo looks so good from the rehab by Brendan Feeney and family that it almost made me not want to sell. The team was very calm, professional and very knowledgeable. They are the best team in the Baltimore area to work with.”

“We had an exceptional experience with the Riley-Maher Team. We found them through a neighbor, and they were fast, professional, and above-all on our side when it came to all matters. You can trust Cindy, Jess, and the entire team with one of the biggest decisions of your life.”

“The best people to come into my life with so much help. I live in another state with no easy way to be at the rental property to make sale arrangements, they took care of everything and kept me posted. Thanks again team.”

“Jess!! Yes!! I am so happy to recommend you wholeheartedly! And that is exactly the way you care for your clients… with your whole heart! I so appreciate your patience, perseverance, expertise, wisdom, experience, vision, understanding… shall I go on? You have definitely found your calling and I am so grateful to know you and to have been a beneficiary of your whole team’s excellence! I do love my new little abode and feel it is just right for me! Thanks for hanging in and guiding me to my sweet spot! I believe your whole team sees your work as a ministry, and it shows! Thank you too for the perfect and thoughtful “Welcome Home” gift! I love each thing in it! Specially, specifically, personally chosen! You are the BEST!”

“Could not be happier in your performance. Considering that we are in Tennessee, y’all went beyond to make this work. Feel free to use me as a reference, even to have clients call me as to my experience. Many thanks.”

“We have gone to this team twice since they are so good. We personally worked with Jess Maher, who is top shelf. She can analyze a situation very quickly and has the know-how to guide and prepare a plan of action for her customer. To accompany these skills, she is very understanding and friendly. Selling/buying a residence can be tough with a lot of variables. If you go with this team, you can have confidence that the best outcome will occur.”

“Five star great people to handle your real estate needs. With their hard working staff our rental property was sold and finished in about three weeks. Thanks again to a great team.”

“Jess and the whole team did a wonderful job helping us both buy and sell during an unpredictable market! They were extremely knowledgeable, detailed and attentive, and there every step of the way!”

“Hello Riley-Maher Team! Just to let you know how much working with you has meant to me. Years ago, we moved from our house to a condo and put the house for sale. The Realtor had someone stage the house. The dining room was staged with a card table with a tablecloth, and a container of dried stems in the corner. Photos did not show the good features of the house. After a couple months, a friend called from California to say her brother-in-law had a house in Monkton they could not sell until someone told him about your company. She said, "You have got to call this lady. She intervened and gave my number to Cindy Riley, who called, and was very impressive. While the house was on the market there were some problems; Riley-Maher met with repair people on my behalf, I approved the work without ever going to the house myself. Contracts came in and when there were problems, this team worked through them with skill, and patience. This year, I needed to sell my condo, and the only Realtor I ever considered was this team. We talked, visited, got some much needed advice, and the listing and photos were outstanding. Had several showings, an offer came in a day or two later, and we were told another offer was being written. Working late into the evening, I received the above listing offer and was very pleased with it. With the gentle approach of listing and selling property, everything went well.””

“Jess and the entire Riley-Maher Team was great every step of the way. We gave Jess a wide variety of possibilities regarding the perfect home, but she quickly figured out our preferences and found that perfect space. Jess and her team will have many more expensive sales and properties to list, but they give the same great attention to every home buyer and seller.”

“Great service from Jessica and her team of professionals! They kept us informed, updated, and at ease throughout the purchasing process.”

“Hello Cindy, this response is so overdue. Everyday I thought today is the day that I will respond with gratitude and appreciation for all that you and your team did for us in selling our home. You were an important part of a task that seemed insurmountable to us. We weren’t just selling a house. We were selling a home and disassembling the accumulations of 60 years of family life with 5 kids and multiple grandkids. We were paring down to a small nest in a little house where we will now spend our summer months visiting with our kids and grandkids at the beach in MD. You and Jess and Kaylin made this overwhelming situation so much easier with your expertise in walking us through all the details involved in selling a home. We appreciate all the trips over to Bulle Rock to help us prepare; all your encouragement and knowledge of the process; especially having settlement at our home as you Cindy watched the whole process over our shoulders. I can’t imagine going through this with a realtor that we did not know. What made the process so special is that we were long time friends first and realtor/client second. You weren’t just making a sale, you were helping friends with a major life changing situation and we trusted you to be a part of that change. We love our new little place in White Horse Park in Berlin. We love being able to walk out on our porch and see Kim and Michael’s house. We are now in Marathon, FL but we look forward to many summers in Md at our little house at the beach. Thank you Cindy, Jess and Kaylin for a job well done.”

“Dear Jess, Thank you for all of your help to find the perfect house. We are extremely grateful for your guidance and patience through this process. We always knew you had our best interest in mind and would advise as such. Most of all, we are grateful that we got to know you over the past few months. Ben is going to be upset that he won’t be seeing you on a regular basis anymore. Thank you again!”

“To all on the Riley/Maher Team – thank you again for everything! I was so nervous about selling in the current market conditions, but you were there beside me every step of the way. Even though I had already relocated to my new home, you ensured that I was always fully informed on every aspect – from marketing to inspections to closing. From start to finish, the sale of my condo was handled in a thorough and professional manner. I highly recommend the Riley/Maher team and without hesitation would seek their services again for my real estate needs.”

“Jess Maher from The Riley-Maher Team was an excellent agent, and an even better person. My wife and I never doubted that Jess had our best interest in mind and wouldn’t let us settle for a house that wasn’t exactly what we needed for our family. Jess helped us navigate a tumultuous housing market to find the perfect home for us and we greatly appreciated the wisdom and knowledge she had to offer. She was patient and understanding every step of the way. When we finally found a place, Jess helped us get the inspections scheduled quickly and with reputable inspectors. Needless to say, Jess went above and beyond to help us through the whole process. I cannot fully express how grateful we truly are for Jess and all she did to help us find our home.”

“Working with Cindy and Jess was a true blessing. They worked very hard and they served our family extremely well. They were incredible communicators, guiding us through the labyrinth of the real estate world and ever eager to answer questions along the way. The personalized touch to their service was just the kind of relationship we would want in a realtor team. Knowing that buying and selling a home is a significant life transition, our family felt like we were in competent and caring hands. The whole team was a reassuring advocated for us. We would highly recommend their team to anyone who is looking for a reliable, patient, and capable real-estate team.”

“Jessica and her team were a delight and phenomenal to work with! They handled everything with the absolute most professionalism and made the process so simple and easy! Jessica is very knowledgeable and knows the industry well. She is very honest and has your best interest at heart which is something that my wife and I appreciated so much during this house search. I highly recommend Jessica and her team - 10/10! They will take care of you and spend the time to make sure you understand everything. Thanks for everything!”

“Jess is THE best! Great suggestions, easy to talk to. I would highly recommend her for your real estate needs in S York County! Actually, I would strongly recommend her!”

“In all our years of doing real estate transactions we have never been represented by a better agent than Jess Maher. She was on top of everything from the very beginning of the selling process to the end. As a direct result of Jess' professionalism and attention to the smallest of details, we sold our home in less than a day. If you want results far above your greatest expectations, you should hire Jess Maher.”

“Jess was AMAZING! Was very personable and didn't just try to make a sale. She cared very deeply about what you as an individual person or a family wanted in a home. Gave her honest opinion on if she herself would buy a house in this or that condition. Was very thorough and just all-around great. She's a great Realtor but an even better person and human being. Thank you Jess!”

“Jess was such a gift in the process of finding our first home! She was patient and knowledgeable helping us with every step of the process. There were countless examples of professionalism and expertise as we walked through dozens of homes before finding the right one. She was always available whenever we needed her and went the extra mile to make sure we were making a good investment and finding a home that was the best fit for us. We loved working with Jess and are so grateful for her wisdom and expertise.”

“Working with Jessica Maher was truly a delight. She punctually kept us updated through every step of our home buying experience. Everything went extremely smooth. My wife and I would absolutely recommend her to others starting their house hunting journey.”

“Jessica is our FAMILY realtor! We couldn’t do without the TEAM! You know we love you and how easy & professionally you assist us with our life changing “events”!”

“David, Thank you for all your help, guidance and care for CPC in purchasing the parking lot. We are so grateful for your willingness to help us in a way only you could do. Thanks for supporting our mission to women and their unborn children. We couldn't have done it without you.”

“My wife and I were fortunate enough to work with David Childs when we sold our house. Mr. Childs assisted us in setting our asking price, provided guidance, answered our questions, and kept the process moving at a good pace. The house was under contract within four days after listing and brought our desired price. We couldn't have asked for better service. Many thanks to David Childs!”

“Cindy and Jess, Once again, it’s been a wonderful experience to work with you in our real estate dealings. We appreciate your patience through all the showings, the back-and-forth emails, the explanations of the why-or-why-not on certain properties. This house, despite all the setbacks in getting to closing, is a God-send and we will make it our home. Thank you for being the consummate professionals. We brag on you and refer folks to you whenever we have a chance. You are the best!”

“When buying a home, you look for things like is the Kitchen updated, how many bedrooms are there, is there a finished basement or is it a cellar, how much land would this be? Believe you me those are all the questions that get asked no matter how long or short of time you have been searching for a home of your choice. David Childs was able to answer all these and plenty more each and every time we asked or inquired about a property. We searched from PA, Carroll County Baltimore County and finally settled in Harford County where we searched the most. For each and every time we called, emailed or texted a property address David Childs asked two questions What time and what day do you want to see it? He went above and beyond the call of duty to set up and reserve time out of his busy schedule to handle this for us made us feel like royalty!!! ALWAYS!! Couldn't have asked for more than this to have the pleasure of experiencing this with him and making buying a house that much more enjoyable. Thanks to all who helped us along the way but hats off to David and his wonderful way to make this experience THE BEST!!”

“Dropping a quick note to say THANK YOU for everything you’ve done for us over the last several months. We finally found our dream house and are so grateful to have had you on our team. Thank you for being so kind and patient with us through this process - your wealth of knowledge and clear communications made us feel so at ease. It was reassuring to see how consistently on top of things you were, and it was obvious you had our best interests front and center. We would highly recommend both of you to anyone starting their home buying journey!”

“After a great experience working with Cindy and Jess as our buyer’s agents, my wife and I suggested the Riley-Maher Team to my parents when they were having trouble selling their home of almost fifty years. What a great experience! Cindy and Jess have the knowledge and experience to truly give REAL ADVICE on the sale process. From first-class marketing materials to negotiating strategy to handling all of the little things that go with selling a house, the Riley-Maher Team came through for us, and we are very grateful. We will never use anyone but Cindy and Jess!”

“We can't say enough about the Riley-Maher Team! Cindy and Jessica are truly the dream team. This is the second time we worked with Cindy and Jess. We found them the first time after being referred by friends from work and were instantly fans. After having such a wonderful and successful experience having The Riley-Maher Team sell our house and find our new home the first time around, when it came time to move to be closer to grandkids, we immediately called them. Every step of the way in the house buying and selling process, Cindy and Jess were with us to guide us through the details and ins and outs of everything - from the initial pricing considerations to the final contract and everything in between and even after! Their integrity, can-do attitude, friendliness and active engagement in the process - answering questions immediately even late at night and early morning - sets them apart. They are whip smart in this business, down to earth and fun to work with and have absolutely impeccable integrity. They are truly good people. Having access to repair people Cindy and Jess have known for years and have vetted was an extra bonus, as was the team's great marketing for selling our house! We are so grateful we found Cindy and Jess - The Riley-Maher Team - and truly loved every minute working with them!”

“Selling a property is no small feat, especially when you're over 1500 miles away. Enter David, our real estate agent, who transformed what could have been an impossible challenge into a great experience. David wasn't just a realtor to us; he was our project manager, our eyes and ears, and most importantly, our peace of mind. When we needed appliances installed, repairs overseen, and an open house held, David stepped up, ensuring every task was completed to perfection. He even stopped by the house regularly just to 'check on things' for us. His dedication meant that despite being miles away, we were never out of the loop—regular calls, texts, and emails kept us informed and involved every step of the way. Emotionally, selling a house for the first time was a rollercoaster. Yet, David's no-nonsense, honest approach, coupled with his constant reassurance, made us feel secure. His ability to manage the project was unparalleled, truly making him an indispensable ally in anyone's corner. Even when our first offer fell through—a moment that could easily have disheartened any seller—David's exceptional communication skills shone through. He kept us informed throughout every stage, ensuring we understood the process and remained hopeful for what was to come. David's direct, honest communication was not just refreshing but reassuring. He told it like it was, always truthful, yet always with the reassurance that everything would turn out okay. And it did—beyond our expectations. In the end, David secured a sale price for our house that exceeded what we had hoped for. To anyone facing the prospect of selling their home, especially from a distance, choosing David as your real estate agent means choosing success. His exceptional service, integrity, and dedication not only made our sale possible but made it a remarkable success. Thank you, David, not just for being an outstanding real estate agent, but for being the support and guide we desperately needed.”

“If you’re looking for a team of agents that will put you first always, you found them. As a first-time home buyer I had been looking for quite some time before finding the perfect house. During the entire process, both Jess and Cindy proactively reviewed my options and were always ready to take me on a showing, whether it was in a couple of weeks or a couple of hours. It was easy to feel defeated given the current market but Jess and Cindy assured me that the right house would come along and it would just take a little bit of patience. They were right and I was soon in the transaction process where they made sure everything moved along seamlessly. Having a past career in real estate (on the Riley-Maher Team), I fully trusted their expertise and guidance. I watched them close a large number of transactions as a member of their team, and every transaction was done with their client’s best interest in mind. This time I got to see their expert advice, experience, honesty, empathy, and values as their client and I can confidently say their service is unmatched. I cannot recommend the Riley-Maher Team enough!”

“We wanted to pass along our sincere thanks and appreciation to both of you for everything you did for us throughout the purchase of our new home and the sale of our old house. We could not have done it without all your guidance, suggestions, and honest feedback. In fact, as we drove away from closing yesterday, we said to each other that we could not have imagined doing all this with any other agents. You two have been phenomenal and beyond patient with us.”

“Jess is the best! She is extremely knowledgeable and helped us at any hour of the day or week during this process. She always had our best interest at heart and would give us her honest thoughts and opinions to help guide us to our perfect home. I could not say enough good things about her & her team, and we could not have done this without her! She has also helped many of my family members find homes too, and we could not recommend her enough. Thank you, Jess!!”

“Our family had a wonderful experience working with The Riley-Maher Team. Jessica Maher worked with my son and his family to obtain their first home. With her guidance and expertise they were able to purchase just the right location and home they were hoping to buy. I found Jessica to be gifted, insightful, skilled and kind as she managed the sale of our family home of 32 years. The end result was her effort to help me successfully obtain the perfect home for my retirement. I highly recommend this competent and hardworking team.”

“An Outstanding Experience - Highly Knowledgeable and Truly Caring. We had a fantastic experience working with the Riley-Maher Team. I was referred to them by a longtime Baltimore County resident who benefitted from Cindy Riley's expertise in a particularly difficult transaction. From the very beginning, Cindy demonstrated an impressive depth of knowledge about the market, neighborhoods and the overall buying process. She took the time to truly understand what we were looking for in a home and guided us seamlessly through every step. What really stood out was Cindy's dedication and responsiveness. No matter the time or day, she was always available to answer our questions, provide expert insights, and offer invaluable advice. She and her Team went above and beyond to ensure that every detail was addressed - from negotiating the best price to helping us navigate the complexities of inspections and paperwork. Thanks to Cindy, we found the perfect house that checks every box on our list. She made what could have been a stressful process smooth and even enjoyable. If you're looking for a realtor who is not only knowledgeable, but also genuinely cares about helping you find the right home, look no further. We can't recommend Cindy and whole The Riley-Maher Team highly enough!”

“This was our second real estate transaction with the Riley-Maher Team. We quickly recalled why we were sure to use their services again! From the very beginning, Cindy and Jess never fail to impress with their market knowledge, diligence, and responsiveness. They left no stone unturned, gave us peace of mind, and provided expert guidance. We truly enjoyed our experiences and highly recommend their services!”

“Jessica was fantastic! Always available and supportive throughout the process.”

“The Riley-Maher Team were wonderful to work with and very professional. They were quick to come over and chat with us and gave great advice on how to improve our home for the best outcome on selling it. We have moved several times and have worked with many realtors but the Riley-Maher Team stand head and shoulder above the rest. My husband and I would definitely recommend them to anyone who is seeking to put their house on the market or needs help finding their dream home.”

“We truly cannot thank Jess and her team enough! Thanks to her, we were able to find our dream home. She has so much patience and she is so honest. She truly exceeded our expectations! She also connected us with great people to help the home buying process run smooth. We are so lucky we found her and her team! She is the best.”

“Cindy and Jess, Thank you for your patience, guidance and expertise. There's no place like home and we will miss 910 but we are grateful for the journey and that you were part of it.”

“Jessica was very understanding and receptive to our needs in looking for a new home. She and Cindy were both very responsive in communication - always available when needed! They kept in consistent contact throughout the process of selling our home and buying a new home. I really appreciate the work and effort they put into making us feel comfortable and heard. They made this process very easy!”

“We had a great experience with The Riley-Maher Team on selling a unique property along the Gunpowder with little comparables available making for a potentially challenging sale. Cindy and Jess were highly knowledgeable about the area, worked efficiently, and had excellent communication skills. Their no-nonsense approach, guided by years of experience, were invaluable to use. We highly recommend them.”

“As a first time homebuyer, this process is a little nerve wracking, to say the least! Jess and her team were thoughtful, attentive and made everything seem easier to navigate. We are truly grateful for their kindness and expertise as we settle into our new home.”

“The Riley-Maher Team made the purchase of our dream retirement home an absolute pleasure. Jess Maher is phenomenal! She is very knowledgeable, has amazing attention to detail and has a keen ability to assess the needs and wants of her clients. She was able to give us suggestions to help enhance our offer to the seller. We opted for a very quick closing of just 21 days and Jess and her team worked closely with us, our lender and title company to ensure that everything went smoothly. Even after the closing, we are still receiving helpful information from Jess and her team. We have bought and sold many homes over the years but have never worked with a better agent than Jess! She was also instrumental in helping our son's family find their dream home a few years ago. Our family loves working with this team.”

“The most memorable and impactful aspect of working with the Riley-Maher Team was their patience and confidence in supporting my wife and I finding the right home. We never felt rushed to wrap up the viewing and they often offered helpful insights specific to our needs. With a keen eye for details and an abundance of patience, their expertise and experience positioned us to get the house of our dreams. Thank you both so much!!”

“Jess was professional, very knowledgeable, and was there every step of the way. Highly recommend!”

“David sold us our first home in 35 days. This second time around it took us only 30 days. Going with him again was an easy decision because he is less interested in a commission and more interested in helping you find the right place for the right price. He listened to what we wanted and worked with us to get it. He negotiated with the seller in a way that was not cut throat, but respectful and professional in order to keep everyone satisfied. The confidence, advice, and wisdom that David brings to the table is enough to make a guy miss his dad. It feels like family when working with David, and we would recommend him in a heartbeat. He is a wonderful Real Estate Agent, but more than that, he is a wonderful person even when he is off the clock.”

“Well leave the rest and go for the BEST! We had the wonderful experience of Cindy and Jess 19 years ago. We found Cindy and she helped us to find our amazing, large, wooded property. They sold our large house on 5 acres. Jess was just starting out. We built a very small house and created walking trails throughout the property. We enjoyed it and dog walking for 19 years. Time for us to move to an easier place to maintain...HOA outside! Enter Cindy and Jess. They were off the charts great. Managing our expectations, with a small house and non-typical lot. They walked dozens of times in the heat through high grass to show the property. The marketing videos did the trick house SOLD with 4 contracts in less than a week! On top of it all, Cindy found us an amazing new build Villa in York, Pa! Do yourself a favor and hire them. They will exceed your expectations. Thorough, knowledgeable, smart, and nice professionals.”

“If anyone is looking for an agent, you will not be disappointed with The Riley-Maher Team. My wife and I wanted to find the perfect house. We were not in a hurry as we already owned a nice house. The market has been tough, and we found a few houses that we thought we wanted. Then Cindy would remind us of all the things we wanted when we started looking and talk us out of them. She was convinced we would find the right place that fit our budget if we were willing to wait and keep looking. Well, we finally found the right one and we could not be happier. I am so glad we took her advice!!!.”

“We used Barbara about 2 years ago to find our first home in Harford County. We worked with Barbara and she showed us quite a few houses all within our budget and wants in a home. Being new to the process, Barbara was great. At times, when we needed it, she held our hand sort to speak through the process and gave us information so we learned the process too. We would definitely recommend working with Barbara to find your first home or any home. She seemed very knowledgeable about Baltimore County and Harford County. We have since referred a few friends and family members to her.”

“Working with Dave was an outstanding experience from start to finish. He represented us as the buyer's agent as we searched for our new home. His professionalism, knowledge, and clear communication made the home-buying process smooth and low-stress. He was incredibly patient and showed us multiple houses, offering thoughtful insight into their current condition as well as creative ideas for what was possible with updates and improvements. We have already recommended him to others in need of a realtor, and we will gladly continue to do so. Anyone looking for a trustworthy, knowledgeable, and client-focused realtor will be in excellent hands.”

“Over the years we have used Jess and Cindy for personal and investment properties. They are personable and consider our goals and needs. Jess and Cindy are extremely organized and stay on top of all the details. They are experienced and give wise counsel. We highly recommend!”

“Could not recommend working with Cindy and Jess more. It is clear that they both care for their clients as people, and work tirelessly to find people the best house for them. They were consistently responsive and always made themselves available for the numerous houses we wanted to tour each week. We trusted them wholeheartedly when discussing offer recommendations/strategy and with their opinions. Can confidently say we wouldn't have found our perfect first house without them, and we are so happy!”

“Cindy Riley is a professional, straight shooting agent with a wealth of knowledge and experience in the industry. She will thoroughly investigate, discover and point out every issue with a home--positive and negative--and undoubtedly spared me from making several bad investments based on her astute observations. She takes the time to learn what you are looking for in a home and neighborhood and truly advocates for your best interests, working tirelessly on your behalf. I am a first time home buyer with virtually no knowledge about real estate and Cindy patiently and expertly guided me through the entire process--and over the course of several years--until I finally found exactly the right house in the right location for me. Cindy works closely with another superb agent, Jessica Maher, and as a result you get two agents for the price of one: whenever Cindy couldn't get back to me right away, Jess did, and I felt incredibly well cared for through what would otherwise have been a rather stressful process. I come from a family full of lawyers and Cindy and Jess made sure to address all of their many concerns until even my many advisors were satisfied. If you are looking for agents who are not pushy or salesy and who will genuinely look after your best interests, then look no further: Cindy and Jess will take care of you as if you were part of their own family. I cannot recommend them highly enough.”

“Words can't express how grateful my husband and I are for having Jessica Maher as our realtor. Her wisdom and guidance paid off throughout a year-long search for the perfect home. She has a keen eye for high quality and will not push you to make a decision you are not fully confident in. Thanks to Jess, we are so happy to be in our new home.”

“Cindy and Jess were absolutely amazing as we walked through the process of buying and selling! Recommendations are really important to me as I make decisions for projects both big and small. I am grateful they were recommended to us, and I can't say enough about what they do! I would recommend them to anyone! From buying to selling, they helped with every detail! They kept us informed about each step, were there to answer any question as they came up, went above and beyond making sure documents were understood, honest and reliable feedback was given and they truly made what can be a very stressful event and big life decision so much easier and smoother! They are extremely knowledgeable and I appreciate the trust and relationship that was built in a short time!”

“Cindy and the team were amazing to work with. Cindy's extensive knowledge was an incredible help during our 1.5-year housing search. She learns who you are and what you want, and then ends up knowing what you are looking for better than you do yourself at times!! Today we closed on the perfect home. THANK YOU to Cindy and the whole team! It wouldn't have happened without you!”

“Jessica Maher is on point! I have bought/sold six homes over the last 25 years and can tell you she is unequivocally the best realtor with whom I have dealt. You won't go wrong by selecting the best!”

“We recently purchased a home in Towson and sold our home in Locust Point - we'd never work with anyone other than Cindy and Jess! These ladies work so incredibly hard and genuinely want the best for their clients. Their team dynamic ensured that our needs were promptly met despite the day or time. Their communication and attention to detail is unmatched. Despite the crazy buying market, we purchased a home in our dream neighborhood for under asking thanks to their guidance and market expertise. We were also able to sell our Baltimore City home in less than two days with the smoothest closing process ever. If you're looking to buy or sell in MD or PA - look no further than the Riley-Maher Team!”

“Worked with Jess Maher over the course of several months this year, and she was fantastic in helping us find our dream home and sell our old house. She is incredibly knowledgeable, available, and responsive. Knows almost everything there is to know about real estate, market conditions, and made buying and selling a home much less stressful than we anticipated. We will absolutely use her in the future if we need to. Highly recommend!”

“Eric was incredibly helpful in finding a home in Baltimore! I worked with Eric closely for about 6 months from September until March 2022. These were extremely difficult months to buy a home but Eric made the experience as pleasant as he could have. He is extremely knowledgeable on many of Baltimore’s neighborhoods. He was especially helpful in helping me realize what I was looking for. He put up with showing me all sorts of homes. He pointed out issues with homes he could have easily ignored. He was available days, nights, and weekends to look at any random home I sent him, as well as getting me into a few homes before they went on the market. I recommend Eric to anyone seriously looking to buy in Baltimore or nearby!”

“As a first time home buyer, Eric was absolutely amazing to work with. He helped me find a home in the exact location I wanted that never even hit the market. I would never have been able to get the house without him. The house was renovations for 9+ months and he helped me navigate the extended home buying process and made everything seamless. Even while he was away on vacation, he made sure I was left in good hands with one of his co-workers in his absence. I would highly recommend Eric if you're looking for a home in Baltimore!”

“Eric Figurelle helped me find my perfect first home!!!! He stuck with me for over a year until we found the perfect house. He helped me say no to the houses that weren’t for me and having that second “yes” vote when I did find the perfect home was invaluable. He also helped me understand more about the home buying process and was always available for questions and talking me off a ledge! I cannot recommend Eric enough!!”

“My husband and I took years to find a house we really loved, and Eric was patient and supportive every step of the way. He always provided great advice, and we really trusted his instincts and experience. The only thing I valued more than Eric’s patience was his responsiveness - always quick, always thorough. We truly loved working with him, both to buy and to sell!”

“My husband and I worked with Eric for the recent purchase of our house and we truly cannot say enough good things about him. He is thorough and attentive, shows incredible initiative, and is extremely knowledgeable about the process and the area. He is the perfect balance of personable and professional, easy to talk to and easy to count on. In a field that relies heavily on word of mouth, it is clear that Eric has cultivated many excellent connections which speaks to his own credibility and strong work ethic. To put it simply, we enjoyed working with Eric because we knew we were in safe hands the entire time. Thank you again for all of your help in getting us in our new home, Eric! Your reputation is well earned.”
