The people in charge of this company are extremely rude! I wouldn't recommend them to anyone!

My mother needed help getting her home office and paperwork in order. Kathleen worked with her over the course of about 4 or 5 2-to-3 hour sessions and was patient and helpful in breaking an overwhelming task into manageable steps, and creating a system that we could use to keep the space in order after she was done. Although it seemed little pricey, the cost was in line with other professionals, we planned for the expense and the results were well worth it.
Response from Island Transitions

"Thank you for taking the time to write a review of Island Transitions services. It was my pleasure to work with your mother who was so delightful and willing to learn a new filing system. I hope she is enjoying her organized office now and will take pride in knowing where things are easily found."

Very Well.
Response from Island Transitions

"Thank you, [Member Name Removed]. It has been my pleasure to help you with sorting and organizing your home. We have taken many trips down memory lane together on your journey and I enjoyed hearing about your traveling adventures. Your memory is remarkable and it is amazing to me that you can recall so many details having not seen photos in decades. It is always fun working with you."

Here recently she took it upon herself to call me and let me know that she checked on my dad and sent me a great picture of them and letting me know how happy my father is where he is at and she has just been so wonderful and caring. This was a very hard time for my family and she was just an angel sent to help me get through this.
Response from Island Transitions

"Thank you for your kind words. It is my pleasure to visit former clients when I am visiting their retirement communities. I like to take a picture with them and chat about their new life and home. Your Dad was so welcoming and pleased to see me. I was impressed that he keeps up with current events with daily delivery of the NY Times to his apartment. He was happy to know that his grandchildren have his tools, family china and pictures. I remember working with an excel spreadsheet to keep track of all the children and grandchildren's locations across the country. We sent pictures and descriptions to all so that they could choose which items they wanted. I'm glad that all went smoothly for your family. You were a great help in all of the decision making involved in this complicated move."

Kathleen was easily reached by phone, and scheduled a quick appointment at our convenience. During the initial free consultation, Kathleen walked through the house with us, listened carefully to our concerns and plans, and explained her services. She offered an incredibly helpful referral regarding what to do with our furniture.  On further discussion it appeared that we may  or may not need to engage her services, given what we've already done and given this useful info she provided.  This was a super-positive experience. Kathleen came across as extremely competent, experienced and supportive, and she offers  a very flexible, wide range of services. We absolutely would plan to hire  Island Transitions if we decide we need organizer services as this unfolds.

It went WONDERFULLY!  I have never before worked with someone so competent, attentive, highly responsive, reliable and above all NICE!  It was like having a relative I don't have  HELP me at a very trying and stressful time. The provider thought of everything and helped me with everything and I highly recommend their services.  The service provided was INVALUABLE and worth so much more than what it actually cost.

It went very well. Because of the unusual circumstance of this project ( my uncle's house was in Queens and I living three counties away,) I was very grateful to Island Transitions for their fine efforts in meeting deadlines in emptying the house and preparing it for sale. There was so much to be done at the time of my uncle's death that I wasn't prepared for. At every step, Kathleen was there, guiding me. By the time the house was ready for sale, it looked great. It was a blessing that she had good communication with the real estate agents. When buyers were viewing the house, it was always at its best.Concurrently, my daughter was relocating from Boston to Central Massachusetts.  Island Transitions was able to give me the name of an outstanding mover who picked up, stored and delivered her furnishings on her schedule.Island Transitions-well worth the money.  I highly recommend them.
