Michael Rothstein

“Michael was extremely knowledgeable, competent, encouraging, supportive, helpful and reliable from start to finish--from 'Is my house a tear down?' and 'How can I move after 50 years in my home?' through the process of looking at possibilities, finding and buying a condo, finding someone to renovate it, clearing out my house, moving, and finally selling my house quickly and at a good price.       "Really, Michael  radiates positive energy!”     [...]

  “My sister and I were selling our mother's house. It was a lovely old Victorian in Brighton that had been continuously occupied by our family for 40 years, but the house's configuration made it challenging to sell. It was officially a three-family house, but our multi-generational occupancy had the first two floors open to each other, and the large first floor had a single bedroom while the second floor had four, making it a tough sale to anyone looking for a traditional [...]

"Michael was a committed partner to us at every step of our home buying journey. Being new to the market, and living out of state at the time, Michael guided us effortlessly through every step of the process. When we were able to fly into Boston, generally on short notice, Michael was quick to line up viewings to maximize our available time and help us gather meaningful insights into the market. We are very happy with our purchase, and could not have done it without his care and support!" [...]

Michael was highly recommended by a neighbor that lived next door to a home I inherited and had to sell long distance (I live on the west coast).  I interviewed a few realtors but Michael was a standout from the get go.  He was open, generous with his time and contacts (I needed help clearing out the house, a plumber, a lawyer etc) and was always available when I needed him.  The market shifted downwards during the pre-listing process and his advice was spot on.  He is a professional, cares [...]

  “Michael, big thanks to YOU! There's so much to praise .... “Michael's instincts were always really good. Wonderful to work with. He immediately answers calls and texts, always available. “Smart. Goes out of his way at every turn. Takes care of every detail. Great advice on home value, pricing and positioning. “Spot on re: marketing materials/showcasing.”  

"Mike is a very knowledgeable real estate professional. Hard working, prompt, creative and goes beyond what is expected. Does his homework about market and comparable houses. Knows the neighborhood very well and understands value. Highly recommended."

"We felt Michael had the expertise to market our home successfully. The comprehensive market analysis helped us understand pricing and timing in the current market. Michael took the time helping us arrange local service providers to prepare our home for sale. We are very grateful for Michael's help in a quick successful closing on our home."

“I had the pleasure of working with Michael over a 2-year period during the roller coaster of the pandemic. After deciding to downsize after 30 years in my Newton home I interviewed several brokers and selected Michael based on a personal reference, his stellar reputation and thorough preparation in his presentation of a meticulously researched and well-developed marketing plan for my home. Shortly after I signed the agreement, I decided to take my house off the market ‘for a few months’ as we [...]

“As first-time homebuyers, my wife and I were nervous but ready to start the homebuying process when our little family started getting bigger. We found Michael and he was invaluable every step of the way. From day one, we knew he was the right Realtor for us: patient, knowledgeable of the Newton-Wellesley-Needham area, and responsive. I don't think he ever takes a day off! Emails and texts were answered within minutes or greeted by a phone call, and we never felt pressured when touring new [...]
