Why Work With Us?
Here's what our satisfied customers are saying about us:
"From creating the initial marketing strategy through executing a smooth sale, Maureen and Bridget guided the process of selling our family home with endless energy and flawless precision. More than just a house, this property was our homestead for over 50 years and the sentimental hub of our large family. The care, attention, empathy and respect Maureen and Bridget displayed brought great comfort and confidence during each step of this amazing journey. No concern was dismissed, no question was left unanswered. And we realized a very successful sale. On behalf of our grateful family, we would not hesitate to recommend Maureen and Bridget.”

“I have been a transactional business attorney for almost 20 years, and I can honestly say I have never seen someone work harder than Susan worked to get our condo sold. Notwithstanding a volatile market and the fact that our building was not Fannie Mae/Freddie Mac compliant, Susan successfully marketed our property by getting it under agreement in 15 days and for our asking price. Grace under pressure does not even begin to describe Susan’s poise during this process. She held my hand through a grueling multiple offer situation and brilliantly negotiated with the two potential buyers. She was truly a force to be reckoned with.
“We are in this house that we love because of Susan Lee. We cannot recommend her enough.”
-- Amy M., August 2010
"My husband and I recently purchased our second house with tremendous help from Mrs. Susan Evans. Also, Susan helped us sell a condo a couple of years ago. We are very thankful to have worked with Susan again as she’s very knowledgeable and she was always able to answer our questions. “She helped with the house search and she patiently waited for us to decide what we wanted. She came to all our viewing appointments and she asked the other agents all the right questions, helping us throughout the search process. She also helped us figuring out the school situation for our daughter which was not an easy thing. “Overall we highly recommend Mrs. Evans to other people that are looking to buy or sell a house.”

“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.”

“Elissa Rogovin has worked with me and my family to find a lovely lot for our new home. She did not have an easy task with all the wishes that my family had, but she mastered the entire search with elegance. Elissa came with us to uncountable site and house visits, on hot summer days and in deep snow. She helped us to find the perfect lot, think every step through and make a well-informed decision. You can really count on her, even on a weekend afternoon, to pay great attention to detail and to consider her clients' best interest. When our offer was accepted, she called personally and I will never forget her words, ‘maybe it was meant to be.’ Anyone would be lucky to have her on their side in finding a new home.”

“After considering several other agents, I chose Elissa to help me sell my two-family home in Brookline in the Spring of 2014. Working under a tight timeline, Elissa did an outstanding job in every respect. Her personal involvement was exceptional. The comps she produced were detailed and insightful. The pricing was arrived at only after visits to the home by both Elissa and another experienced associate.
“Once engaged, Elissa took care of every single detail: from dealing with possible title problems, excellent legal referrals, smoke inspections, landscaping, basement and attic clean-out, beautiful photography, and an excellent web presence. All of this led to much excitement and great attendance at the open house - which was again, flawlessly run by Elissa and her team. Multiple offers were received and I relied on Elissa to assist with negotiations.
“In the end, the home sold for a significant amount over asking. The closing was rapid and uncomplicated - based on the excellent foundation established by Elissa. Whether you are selling or looking for a personable and determined agent to assist you in buying, I urge you to consider working with Elissa!”

"Vicky Whitney had worked on the sale of a condo for my mother approximately 10 years ago, so when it was time to sell, we looked no further than The Whitney Group with Vicky and her daughter, Blake. It was a challenge for me as I live out of state, but they made the process incredibly smooth, even when we found some issues with the condo that needed to be fixed.
“They are not only very professional, but responsive, easy to work with and were able to find people to do any work necessary to complete the sale.
“I would highly recommend this great team!"
-- K.C. June
"Amy was a great agent! Very on top of her game. She showed up at my place to take some pictures, and voila, a couple days later, my house was advertised on a pretty website. Within days a buyer got interested, and the sale went very smoothly."
--Timothy C., November 2020
"Buying a house was an exhausted process, but Zach with his experience, professionalism and constant follow up, was amazing in making the process tolerable and getting a great house at the end. Thank you!"

“What makes a good broker? Utopian thinkers imagine a world without middlemen. Some people think brokers collect a fee without creating value. But If more brokers were like Shari Lyons, utopian thinkers would have to change their minds. Shari pestered us to buy a certain unit that had been sitting on the market. She said it was perfect for us; that we were meant to own that unit. For almost a year I didn’t listen. After several price reductions she referred me to a banker who informed us we could easily qualify, so we agreed. The interest rate was less than three percent.
“The seller was a nightmare to deal with, but Shari took care of it all. Then when the time came to sell our old unit, she staged and advertised it. Within hours of it hitting the market it sold for 10% over the asking price. So we acquired a new unit without having to put any more money in, and took several hundred thousand dollars out. The new unit is marvelous, a huge upgrade from the old unit. And the whole deal would never have happened without her persistence and enterprise. You can give credit to favorable market conditions, but you have to also give credit to a broker who urged us to act when market conditions were right.”
