Hudson River Line Realty

I've been living in my dream home for a year and a half now, and Ann and her colleague Stephanie, made it possible. I lived 300 miles away, and looked for two years for the right home. I found Ann, in the middle of my house hunting journey-- she was the agent for a house I looked at but didn't buy. I was taken in by her forthright honesty-- not easy to find in this business. And then she cared! --about the seller she was representing and about my situation as a potential buyer. After making time to talk with her 1:1, and learning how intelligent and authentic she was, I switched realtors and asked her to represent me as a buyer. She was a great communicator, and above all (I guess most important to me, so I come back to this), honest. Her colleague, Stephanie, has helped me with all things design...turning a nice house into my beautiful home. I have nothing but gratitude for these two fine women.

Ann McBride and Claudia Dizenzo are extraordinary real estate agents--and humans! From beginning to end, they were professional, honest, savvy, ethical, hard working, and delightful to work with. They understood the multifaceted value of my unusual property and its nature sanctuary setting. Selling one's home, especially a beloved home of 27 years, is a stressful experience. I'd originally put my house on the market 6 months prior to signing with Hudson River Line Realty and had two very stressful experiences with two other agents. In contrast to those experiences, I felt deeply supported by Ann and Claudia listening to me and engaging in what felt like a real partnership. Their communication, work ethic, and supportive positive attitude continually smoothed the process. They repeatedly went above and beyond what others would have done. I am thrilled with the results and immensely grateful to have worked with and gotten to know them! I totally and completely recommend Ann and Claudia and the Hudson River Line Realty. You will be glad you chose them!

Ann McBride the owner of Hudson River Line Realty sold our house in Putnam County in April of 2025. She structured a launch strategy that included property pictures by a professional, advise on landscaping and on the house interior especially with regard to lighting. Despite a buyers market she was able to generate demand utillizing her extensive network of agents and clients. Ann arranged for the inspectors, movers, our lawyer and oversaw that the proper approvals were in place at the building department. This was all accomplished while we had moved to Florida. In addition, she oversaw the closing. Ann is a professional and a caring person who I would be delighted to recommend to prospective clients.

Hudson River Line Realty is owned by Ann McBride-Alayon. She is an independent licensed broker whom we met after interviewing two other brokers, connected to larger firms. Ann stood up as a preferred choice of brokers for her direct and yet personable approach in her presentation of how she would position the sale of our house. She demonstrated not only a good knowledge of the market but a high level of marketing and communication skills. Ann was very hands on, being present at the open house events while other brokers suggested leaving a key in a lock box and leave the house without knowing who would come to view the house. Ann's approached all issues with a commitment which went far beyond our expectations, in fact we now consider her a friend. Without any hesitation, we highly recommend Ann to our community and prospective buyers in the Hudson Valley.

Ann at Hudson River Line Realty is simply the best. We worked with her to sell our condo, and she then guided us through a truly grueling home search. She was right there in the trenches with us, always willing to go the extra mile because she genuinely cares about finding your family the right home.

Ann's deep connections in the local community and incredible knowledge of the area were invaluable. She truly knows everyone and knows her stuff. Her perseverance and personal touch made all the difference in finding our perfect home. We'd highly recommend her to anyone looking to buy or sell!
