Monticello is a boutique real estate firm offering highly specialized services for buyers and sellers in the Capital Region. The Albany Business Review ranked Monticello as the 2018 & 2017 fastest growing residential real estate brokerage in the Capital Region. In 2018 Business Review ranked Monticello the seventh fastest growing company in the entire region. The firm sold over 200 homes in 2018, with a total sales volume of more than $46,000,000. As an independent brokerage, Monticello focuses more on providing white glove service, highly specialized marketing tools, and innovative solutions to selling homes and assisting their clients. Monticello trains their agents to serve much like sherpas: reducing risk, carrying the load, and providing comfort along the way. As founder Alexander Monticello describes the service, “We strive to provide honest advice and a simplified experience, all with a sophisticated perspective.” In the words of one satisfied client, Monticello “will give you the professionalism and devotion that you will not find from one of the big box stores.” Monticello has been repeatedly quoted in the Times Union newspaper (see also here), featured in Inman News, profiled on TLC’s My First Home TV show, and featured on WAMC radio, among other media outlets
