Real Estate Reviews from Home Buyers and Sellers in East Islip & Suffolk County, NY

Jennifer Rosand Sound Beach | 2026 Maria is absolutely phenomenal! I cannot recommend her enough, she is the epitome of a caring professional and truly goes above and beyond for her clients. As first time homebuyers, Maria put all of our nerves at ease and held our hands every step of the way. She answered all of our questions (some of them very silly lol) and always responded to us and our needs very fast! We never felt lost at any point in the process because she was so good at explaining everything to us before it happened so that we were never caught by surprise by anything. She is so kind, honest, and smart. It is evident that she not only loves what she does, but is truly amazing at it. Choosing Maria Aaraas as your real estate agent is the BEST decision you could possibly make for yourself in your homebuying process! Thank you, Maria!!!

As a first-time homebuyer, the whole process can be pretty overwhelming and stressful, but Maria made everything so much easier. She was there for me every step of the way, always answering my questions, keeping me informed, and making sure I felt comfortable throughout the entire process.

What I expected to be a stressful experience ended up being so much smoother than I could have imagined. Within just a few months, I was able to find and purchase a home that I absolutely love in a great neighborhood. Looking back, I really couldn't be happier with how everything worked out.

I'm so grateful to Maria, Debbie, and the entire Carpluk Team for helping me find my first home. If I had to go through the process all over again, I wouldn't think twice about working with them. They genuinely made such an important milestone in my life a great experience, and I'd recommend them to anyone, especially someone buying their first home.

Debbie Carpluk and her crackerjack staff at Keller Williams were nothing short of outstanding. From start to finish the process went smoothly and efficiently. Debbie always demonstrated patience and professionalism. As a first time homeowner, I felt very lucky to have such a dedicated group working on my behalf.

I strongly recommend the Carpluk team!

Debbie Carpluk and her team, specifically Maria Aaraas, were just a pleasure to work with. They were both very professional, courteous, and most of all knowledgeable, about the whole process of selling my home. Whether we are selling or buying a home Debbie has provided her services to my whole family for decades. Thank You - Team Carpluk !!!

Debbie goes above and beyond for her clients. I know because I've seen when I work with her. She's on top of her game, whether it be finding great contractors to help her clients out for a smooth selling process or jumping in there herself and getting her hands dirty helping out. You can't go wrong with Debbie. A true professional who cares about people.

Debbie and Maria are the best! As first time homebuyers, they made the process so much less stressful. We felt they had our best interest in mind and were constantly in contact with us to answer any questions and get us into showings asap. Highly recommend the Carpluk Team!

Very easy

We have been working with Debbie for over 20 plus years. Debbie and her team have sold multiple properties for us. Debbie and her team have come through with all offers much higher than asking price for each of those properties. All offerers made were in days of listing those properties. Debbie and her teams guidance with recommendations on how to stage our properties was the answers to those offers. Her loyalty, honesty, and professionalism is above commendable. Her compassion to serve not only her customers but the community speaks volumes. The question is "Why wouldn't you want Debbie and her team take care of selling your home"? We want to thank Andrea for her expertise and professionalism. A person who represents selling properties honesty with integrity and pure love for what she does. Give Debbie and team a try you won't be disappointed!!!

We couldn’t be more grateful to Debbie and Maria at Keller Williams Realty for helping us through the entire home-buying process. From day one they were incredibly knowledgeable, responsive, patient, and genuinely invested in helping us find the right home. They made what could have been a stressful process feel smooth and exciting. Even when things got complicated, they were there to guide us, advocate for us, and make sure everything stayed on track. Buying a home is such a huge decision, and having the right realtors makes all the difference. We always felt like we were in the best hands and had someone looking out for us every step of the way.

We are so thankful for all of their hard work and dedication. If you’re looking for realtors who truly care about their clients and go the extra mile, Debbie and Maria are the ones! ❤️

Janis my realtor has been with me and guiding me through a long difficult journey in finding my next home. She is always cheerful and goes above my wildest expectations. Finally closed on my new home and couldn't be happier. She is very knowledgeable about the LI real estate market and does her best to find you the items on your wish list. I would highly recommend her for your real estate needs.

We met Debbie by chance when we decided to go in a random open house. Im so glad we went in!!! Debbie greeted us and made us feel comfortable. She took her time to explain the whole home buying process and answered all of our questions along the way. Once we began the house hunting process, Pam Serviss also assisted. Debbie and Pam were an amazing team and in constant contact with us. In a few months we found our home. Debbie and Pam made the process so smooth. Even after the closing they still reach out and have become like family to us! We love the Carpluk team! (Especially Debbie and Pam) We cannot recommend them enough!!!

Selling our family home was an emotional and overwhelming experience. From our very first conversation, the Debbie Carpluk Team showed us genuine kindness, compassion, and patience. They didn’t just guide us through the process — they stood with us through every step.

Their dedication to meeting our needs went far beyond what we ever expected. They handled every detail with care, communicated clearly, and worked tirelessly to sell our home in record time. Need a plumber, cleaner, or mover? Debbie has trusted connections. Want someone to listen attentively to stories about raising a family in your home? Kristen will give you her undivided attention. Have a question about building code? This team has the answer.

Each person on Debbie’s team made us feel supported, respected, and truly cared for. If you want to work with a knowledgeable agent who has the drive to get things done — and a team that backs her up every step of the way — look no further.

I had an outstanding experience working with Keller Williams Realty Elite while purchasing my first home. Debbie Carpluk and Jessica Belsito were absolutely amazing throughout the entire process. As a first-time homebuyer, I had a lot of questions and wasn't sure what to expect. Debbie and Jessica made every step easy to understand, took the time to explain everything clearly, and always made themselves available whenever I needed guidance. Their professionalism, knowledge, and patience helped make what could have been a stressful experience feel smooth and manageable. From start to finish, everything went seamlessly, and I always felt supported and at ease. I truly appreciate the care and dedication they showed throughout the entire process. I highly recommend Keller Williams Realty Elite, especially Debbie Carpluk and Jessica Belsito. They earned every one of these five stars, and I wouldn't hesitate to recommend them to anyone looking to buy or sell a home.

Debbie and the Carpluk Team were amazing from start to finish! Debbie made finding a property and figuring out round about cost super easy. Debbie and her team makes you feel like a priority and are always available. Phone calls were returned in a timely manner and all questions I had were answered fully. Do yourself a favor and GO WITH DEBBIE and THE CARPLUK TEAM

This is my second time working with Janis and it’s always a trip! She super fun to work with and adds humor, joy, and levity to an otherwise stressful and taxing experience. At times, it was the best of times and other times it was the worst of times. Many highs and many lows that come with house shopping but in the end she found us the most perfect home and she never gave up on my dream even when I wanted to.

I cannot say enough about how amazing it was working with Debbie and Andrea. From my initial visit all the way to closing they were beyond expectations. Going into the experience I was extremely overwhelmed and not knowledgeable in the realty world. They helped me understand every step of the process. They were both very responsive to all of my questions and were always on top of any new listings for me. I would recommend them to anyone looking to buy or sell on Long Island.

Working with Debbie, Jillian and the whole team at Keller Williams was an excellent experience from start to finish. They were professional, knowledgeable and always available whenever we had a question. They kept us informed every step of the way and genuinely cared about achieving the best outcome for us. It was a pleasure working with them both times we've sold our homes. Each process was smooth and stress-free. I've referred them to many of my friends and family, and all of them have walked away very pleased. If you want honest, hardworking and dedicated real estate professionals, look no further! I highly recommend them to anyone looking to buy or sell a home.

Working with Debbie was truly exceptional. From the very beginning, she made the entire selling process feel effortless and low stress. Debbie has a combination of professionalism and compassion, and she was especially wonderful with the elderly homeowner, putting them fully at ease. Her communication was outstanding, as was her follow-through. Every single thing she said would happen did, and always when she said it would. That level of trust, consistency, and care is priceless. We could not have imagined a better agent and would recommend Debbie without hesitation to anyone who wants a smooth selling experience.

Janis walked us through every step in the process of selling our home. She was very knowledgeable about how to do it all and was with us all the way. I would highly recommend calling on her when you’re ready to make the move! You won’t regret it.

I truly cannot say enough good things about Debbie Carpluk and her team of highly trained professionals. This is a true professional who treats you like family and who knows how to ask all the right questions when showing a house which is absolutely critical. She really knows all the little details to ask which I really appreciated since I don’t know anything about anything or even how to ask if something is good or not. She has so much experience and it really shows during her showings. She was interested in getting the best house for us, taking her time explaining everything (sometimes more
Than once so we could understand)and never pressuring us for anything at all. I really appreciated that and I recommend her and her team to anyone looking to buy or sell a house.
