Why Work With Us?

"Debby was a dream to work with during our Newton home sale. Right from the start, her thoroughness and professional skills gave us immense confidence. Because we were living on the opposite side of the country, we needed someone we could trust implicitly, and Debby exceeded every expectation. She managed all the local logistics and kept us in the loop, so we never had to worry about not being there in person. She is incredibly action-oriented and remained impressively responsive despite the difference in time zones, making the entire journey feel easy and well-managed. We truly appreciated her thoughtful advice and the hard work she put in to get us a great result. We would absolutely work with her again in a heartbeat and can’t recommend her enough for anyone looking for a dedicated expert to have in their corner!"

“It is my pleasure to recommend Debby Belt to anyone buying or selling a house. Our cousins raved to us about her. We interviewed many Realtors and in the end, with urging from our son, agreed that Debby would be the best Realtor to sell our beloved home of 46 years. She was outstanding in every way. Debby went out of her way consistently to make sure that everything went perfectly. From lending us twin bedding when ours was mistakenly packed to suggesting wonderful vendors who seemed to do everything to please her (stager, painter, electrician, and others), Debby had our home looking sensational. We wished we had done it all years ago.

“We did whatever Debby suggested, as we found her to be 100% trustworthy. It was also a pleasure to deal with Debby as she is kind, caring, funny, responsive and bright. Debby sold our home over the listing price quickly to a lovely couple. We could not be more appreciative and now consider Debby a friend.”

“Debby is the unequivocal best in the business. We were introduced to Debby through a family friend – and while we, of course, trusted the recommendation - we could not have imagined the degree of professionalism and responsiveness Debby practices and the effectiveness she achieves. She guided us as first-time home buyers through every logistic, and connected us with quality inspectors, insurance brokers, mortgage lenders, and even a piano tuner. Debby’s Rolodex is endless. And, more importantly, she is highly respected by all. During our search, she asked the right questions of sellers’ agents and helped us find the best house for us well within our budget. Buying our dream home was just icing on the cake - it was a joy working with Debby who was our fearless advocate and, now, a friend.”
 

"In June of this year, Debby helped us purchase a single-family home in West Newton. We have been living in our new home for a month now and are very satisfied! We are very grateful to Debby for her professional services! She is so experienced and highly recognized in this industry, particularly familiar with the Newton market. Her communication with the seller's agent was very efficient, and she helped us resolve many issues with good manner. She also shared many resources for home maintenance, insurance, and loans with us. Working with Debby was a very pleasant experience!  All the best and Welcome to our new house Debby!"

"Look no further than Debby Belt when you are either buying or selling a house in Newton!

"We were lucky enough to work with Debby on both ends, and she was extremely valuable  as both our buying and selling agent. Debby is both a talented professional and sensitive individual who understands the emotional nuances of leaving a long time beloved home.

"Debby is the consummate professional; she is deeply knowledgeable about both the market and the strategies that buyers and sellers should utilize to obtain maximum leverage. Debby also is well-respected by the real estate community in the area and understands when and where you need to push and when to hold back.

"We actually brought Debby in to look at our house when we were thinking about downsizing and made it clear to her that we were not ready to sell util we found a new home. Debby listened carefully to our needs and brought us to a few homes. She knew what we wanted and found us a great new home. She skillfully stewarded us through the process and made a number of suggestions all of which we adopted.

"It was clear that we would then use Debby to sell our house. She advised us to quickly put it on the market and knew a number of vendors who made it possible to turn our house around within two weeks. All of the vendors who helped us accomplish this feat were fantastic and it was Debby's relationship with them that enabled us to do this in a very short amount of time. She came over several times to check out our progress and held our hand through the first then second closing.

"I cannot say enough about this wonderful real estate broker, I highly recommend her!"

"Debby did a fantastic job selling our home.  We were delighted with the outcome! From the moment we met her we were immediately impressed with her level of experience and knowledge of the market. While working with her she exceeded all of our expectations. She was organized and provided a timeline of events and activities leading up to listing the home. And preparing this 100-year-old home for sale was no small feat.  She has a treasure trove of reliable resources and contacts in all fields and managed the home preparation flawlessly.  As evidenced by the fact that is sold in 4 days!  

“And on a personal note, Debby is just lovely and a pleasure to work with.  Without any reservation we would recommend her highly and use her services again if the opportunity presented itself."

"We want to express our gratitude for your exceptional work in helping us sell our house. Your professionalism, dedication, and expertise made the entire process smooth and stress-free for us. The presale prep work you did was incredibly helpful, and we appreciate the time and effort you invested to ensure a successful sale.
“Your pre-sale guidance was particularly valuable in terms of pre-sale marketing, staging and other useful recommendations. The house looked spectacular and made us want to stay. Further along the process you were very accommodating in adjusting the schedule to get us to market earlier than planned. Finally, your command of market dynamics revealed the true value of your expertise, you were spot-on!

“We wish you continued career success and will not hesitate to recommend your services to friends and family. "

"My experience selling my home through Debby was superb. She had a vision for the property far superior to my own and her execution was timely and flawless. Debby takes charge and gets things done. I was also impressed with her broad knowledge of the market and quick responses to my questions.  I’d use her again without any hesitation.”

“Thank you again. You are a Peach!! Through all the nuanced conversations, you have guided us so astutely at every single turn. We would not be here without your wisdom, savvy, nuance and kindness!"

“You knew where the hazards lay and guided us around them deftly and quickly - more than once before we even knew the importance of speedy decisions/actions. You were available nearly INSTANTLY every time we communicated. You stood up for us/our mom in a way that made us feel cared for and protected. We wouldn’t have the sale without your guidance."

“We had the pleasure of working with an exceptional Realtor, who excels in her field, Debby Belt. Her knowledge of the Brookline market was unparalleled, and her expertise made our home-buying experience smooth and successful. She was pleasant, in tune with our family’s needs, and always prepared. Thanks to her connections with any service that one may need in home purchasing and moving, we were able to buy and sell in 2 weeks.

“Throughout the entire purchase, her professionalism and commitment to excellence shone brightly. Communication was easy and excellent. She was always available to answer our questions and provide guidance.

“In addition to her expertise, her friendly and approachable demeanor made every interaction a pleasure. She fostered a sense of trust and confidence that is invaluable when making such an important life decision. 

“We are now happily settled in our new home.”
