Eileen Strong O'Boy

“Eileen just helped us sell our beloved condo in Brookline, a place we had called home for over 35 years. She came to our rescue after a failed attempt to sell last summer. We were represented by another agent who was not based in Brookline and we learned the hard way that a local agent is really important. Eileen has lived in Brookline her whole life and knows the market and the area extremely well. She impressed us the first time we met her when she arrived early with a custom-made booklet [...]

“Eileen is simply the best. From start to finish she was a pleasure to work with. She knows the market extremely well and has a tremendous depth of experience. She is creative, an excellent communicator and is very responsive. She goes the extra mile to make it happen.�

“Eileen, just wanted to let you know how much I appreciated working with you on 189 Walnut. You really stood out to me as a quality Realtor in the 12 years that I’ve been doing this. Thanks for being understanding about the inspector no-show/non-cancellation. Also, thanks for being genuinely helpful from beginning to end. It’s obvious to me that being helpful is one of your true gifts, and you demonstrated that the entire way. I can see why you have been so successful over the years. I hope to [...]

“Eileen recently helped us sell our house in Brighton and it was a great experience.  She was personable and easy to work with, and she knew the market backwards and forwards.  We interviewed other real-estate agents, all of whom agreed that we would never get more than a certain price.  With Eileen, we had an open house on a Sunday, and by Tuesday afternoon we had three excellent offers, one of which was almost 20 percent more than the other agents had even thought possible.�

“Eileen is a smart and well-connected broker who has a deep knowledge of Brookline. Her insight into neighborhoods, schools, and location is invaluable. She has a unique skill in representing her clients to maximize their goals and she is able to work through tough issues to a resolution that benefits all.  She is the best in Brookline.�

“Eileen is competent, compassionate, smart, funny, intuitive, and fully attuned to both the practicalities of looking for a new home and the complicated nuances around this process. She is adept at not only locating a range of housing options, but also aware of how neighborhoods and intangible vibes can impact decision-making. Eileen has an uncanny radar for both. Her life-long involvement with, and commitment to, the community makes her an invaluable resource to new home buyers. Eileen is [...]

“Eileen has represented me both as a buyer and a seller. As my buyer's agent, she utilized her deep knowledge of Brookline and surrounding markets to not only show me interesting properties, but also to inform me of red flags in listings that I would otherwise have missed. When the time came to put in an offer, her familiarity with market conditions as well as relationships with other agents sped up negotiations and led to a successful offer at a better price than I was expecting. When I [...]

"You handled this tricky business beautifully, Eileen.  I could not have asked more from a broker."

“My husband and I were very pleased with Eileen's work as our broker in selling our large Brookline house and moving into a smaller condo.  She was energetic, decisive (while being very tactful with her occasionally prickly clients), knowledgeable, and optimistic. She knew the neighborhood, had lots of useful contacts and information, and pitched in herself when needed to accomplish some task.  Our house sold for more than the asking price, and we were pleased with the purchasers and the [...]
