Why Work With Us?

"We cannot recommend Maxine Malka Freedman at Hammond Realty highly enough. This was the third property we’ve worked on with her, and once again, she proved exactly why we keep coming back. This purchase came together under an incredibly tight timeline. We reached out to Maxine in the morning to re-engage her as our agent, requested a showing, and submitted an offer, all in the same day. She made it happen seamlessly. Her responsiveness, organization, and calm efficiency turned what could have been a stressful scramble into a smooth, well-coordinated process.

"During our visit to the property, her expertise truly shone. Homes in this area are historic and often come with hidden issues. Maxine was attentive to every detail, pointing out potential warning signs and offering thoughtful, insightful commentary throughout. Her knowledge during negotiations gave us tremendous confidence, and we felt fully supported at every step. Most importantly, we moved forward feeling secure, knowing we had a trusted, experienced advocate in our corner. Maxine is sharp, strategic, and deeply knowledgeable, but also genuinely invested in her clients’ success. We are so grateful to have her as our agent and would absolutely work with her again. Highly recommend!"

“Maxine was an integral part of our purchasing process. She went above and beyond in helping move the purchase along, doing her utmost to keep things moving smoothly. Maxine’s knowledge and experience in real estate were invaluable to us and she is a pleasure to work with.”

“We are so happy that we had Maxine to guide us through the complex, and, at times, confusing process of home buying. Maxine took the time to understand our family's needs in finding a home, and recommended properties to look at that would fit our needs. She was always available to answer our questions, and was knowledgeable and proactive about guiding us through every step of the process. Her assistance ensured that everything went smoothly from start to finish.”

“Maxine and Hammond were truly wonderful to work with. Maxine was always there for me (and ensured someone else was available if she couldn't be), and frequently went above and beyond when I expressed interest in a property -- setting up private viewings, reaching out preemptively to get important information for me, and building relationships with the sellers' representatives. She understood my tastes and often could tell before I could that I was going to be interested in a property. She also set me up with an awesome inspector and great real estate attorney when I finally found the right place for me! Thanks for everything, Maxine!”

“From our very first interaction with Maxine, we knew that we found the perfect agent. She not only has extensive knowledge of the real estate market (including current trends) and how to present a house to maximize its value, but she is sensitive about the emotional challenge of selling a beloved home of many decades. Throughout the entire process, she was our trusted partner, who guided us expertly through every step, leaving NO stone unturned.

“Thanks to her efforts, our house generated tremendous interest and her skilled negotiation resulted in a sale that far exceeded our expectations."

"Maxine worked with us for over a year to find us our home. Her personal attention and care brought us through the process in style! I never thought we'd be able to buy a home, but over the year and a bit, we gradually progressed through looking at many places until Maxine helped us figure out what we really needed and how to make it happen.

"Once we found the right home, she guided us through negotiations and pitfalls expertly and made us feel well supported and knowledgeable throughout the process. Even after we bought, she's been a valuable resource for who to call for contractors, designers, electricians, gutter guys -- you name it!

"I highly recommend giving Maxine a call if the whole process of buying a home seems bewildering and scary. If buying a home is climbing a mountain, Maxine will get you to the summit, while feeling cal and relaxed on the journey!"

"This was the second time we partnered with Mrs. Freedman to help us find pour home and as always she went above and beyond. She walked us through every step of the process, giving us the confidence we needed to make our decision. Hopefully, we won't be buying a new house anytime soon, but if we do, she'll be the first person we call!"

“Maxine was truly a pleasure to work with! She is highly professional, warm, proactive, and honest. She really knows the market and goes above and beyond to help her clients. She helped us at every step, and we really couldn’t be happier working with her!”

"Maxine is simply to the MAX!! Maxine patiently addressed all our concerns with kindness and sensitivity. We purchased a home with her, and we sold a home with her. The process was simple and transparent. Maxine is the epitome of integrity, wrapped in kindness and warmth. Just the very best!!

“We just wanted to tell you what an amazing experience we had listing and selling our condo with you. We had a hard time taking care of things from overseas. But from the moment you took control of the property, we had peace of mind knowing you were putting the house back into top shape. You brought in so many different types of professionals and oversaw the whole process, making everything the least stressful possible, transforming our apartment in just a few days. The stager you recommended then made our property look stunning, we didn't even recognize it! We got a really great offer, things went smoothly, and we closed just in time to buy our new home. We greatly appreciate the thoughtful advice you gave us throughout. We could not have asked for a better agent.”
