Yonkers & Westchester real estate FAQ
How much is my Yonkers home worth?
I give you a free home value review based on recent sales on your block and in your part of Yonkers, such as Colonial Heights, Crestwood or Bryn Mawr, plus the condition and updates of your home. You get a clear price range and a plan, not just an online estimate. Call or text (917) 243-1531.
Is fall or winter a good time to sell a home in Yonkers?
Yes. The buyers looking now are usually the most serious, and there are fewer homes competing with yours than in spring. Selling before the spring rush can mean less competition. Every home and situation is different, so we look at your timeline and your numbers together.
What does it cost to sell a home in Westchester County?
Typical costs include the brokerage commission, which is always negotiable, New York State transfer tax, your attorney's fee, and any repairs or credits you agree to. Before you list, I give you a written estimate of what you would walk away with.
Do I need a real estate attorney in New York?
In the New York City area it is standard for both buyer and seller to have their own attorney for the contract and the closing. I can share names of local attorneys my clients have worked with.
Do you help buyers moving from New York City to Westchester?
Yes. Many of my buyers are moving from the Bronx, Manhattan, Queens and Brooklyn to Yonkers and lower Westchester for more space and an easy commute. I help you compare towns, commute times, property taxes and home types so you can choose with confidence.
Do you work with clients in Spanish?
Yes. I work with buyers and sellers in English and in Spanish, from the first conversation through closing.
Who is a bilingual English and Spanish real estate agent in Yonkers and Westchester?
Franchel Mendoza is a licensed real estate salesperson with SERHANT. and The Garay Team who serves buyers and sellers in English and Spanish across Yonkers, Westchester County, the Bronx, Manhattan and the Hudson Valley.

Do you represent luxury homes and estates?
Yes. With the reach of SERHANT. and The Garay Team, I market and represent luxury homes, estates and second homes in Westchester communities such as Scarsdale, Bronxville, Rye, Chappaqua and Bedford, in Manhattan, and across the Hudson Valley, including Rhinebeck, Millbrook and Cold Spring. Every listing gets a custom marketing plan, professional media and private, discreet showings.

Yonkers (including Colonial Heights, Crestwood, Bryn Mawr and Park Hill), Riverdale and the North Bronx, Mount Vernon and New Rochelle; Westchester's premier communities including Scarsdale, Bronxville, Rye, Larchmont, Chappaqua, Armonk, Bedford, Pound Ridge, Irvington and Tarrytown; Manhattan; and the Hudson Valley, including Rhinebeck, Millbrook, Cold Spring, Garrison and Woodstock.
