Five Star Professional partnered with Hudson Valley Magazine to determine the real estate agents in the Hudson Valley area who provide exceptional service and overall satisfaction. The Five Star Professional research team contacted clients, peers and industry experts, and asked if they had experience working with a real estate agent. Those who participated in the research provided the name of a real estate agent and rated that individual according to criteria such as integrity, communication and customer service. The survey data was collected and scored,

resulting in the list of 2012 Hudson Valley Five Star Real Estate Agents. The research methodology allows no more than 7 percent of real estate agents to be named a Five Star Real Estate Agent. This year’s winners are listed and profiled in the following pages.

Five Star Professional partnered with Hudson Valley Magazine to determine the mortgage and insurance professionals in the Hudson Valley area who provide exceptional service and overall satisfaction. The Five Star Professional research team contacted clients, peers and industry experts, and asked if they had experience working with a mortgage or insurance professional. Those who part ic ipated in the research provided the name of a mortgage or insurance professional and rated that individual according to criteria such as overall satisfaction and whether they would highly recommend the professional to a friend. The survey data was collected and scored, resulting in the lists of

2012 Hudson Valley Five Star Mortgage Professionals and Five Star Home/Auto Insurance Professionals. The research methodology allows no more than 7 percent of mortgage and insurance professionals to be named a Five Star award winner. This year’s winners are listed and profiled in the following pages.

Five Star Mortgage and Home/Auto insurance Professionals

The Five Star award goes to less than 7 percent of professionals.

2012 Hudson Valley

• Five Star Professional surveyed more than 23,500 Hudson Valley homeowners.

• The final lists of 2012 Hudson Valley Five Star Mortgage and Home/Auto Insurance Professionals are select groups, representing less than 2% of mortgage professionals and 1% of insurance professionals in the area.

• Mortgage and insurance professionals do not pay a fee to be included in the research or on the final lists.

• Each mortgage or insurance professional is screened against state governing bodies to verify that licenses are current, and no disciplinary actions are pending. The lists are reviewed by a panel of industry experts before they are finalized. Safeguards are built into the review process to reduce the ability to influence the final lists on the basis of company affiliation.

• The inclusion of a mortgage or insurance professional on the lists of Five Star award winners should not be construed as an endorsement by Five Star Professional or Hudson Valley Magazine.

• For more information on the Five Star award and the research/selection methodology, go to www.fivestarprofessional.com.
