Why Work With Us?
Here's what our satisfied customers are saying about us:
“My husband and I have worked with Rachel Carter for over a year. We wanted to sell our ‘too large’ home and downsize to a smaller property. We relied on Rachel to market and sell our house while also looking for a new and appropriate place to live. “Navigating through the dual process, Rachel’s constant attention to detail was invaluable. Every phase of selling and buying both properties was handled calmly, professionally, and with great care. Rachel helped lead us to an ideal outcome.”

"You handled this tricky business beautifully, Eileen. I could not have asked more from a broker."
-- Verne V., December 2015
“I’ve used Elissa to buy and sell a condo and each time the process was easy, smooth and professional. She made herself available to answer my questions at every step along the way, and you can tell she truly cares about you as more than just a customer. I’d recommend working with Elissa for buying or selling your home!”

"The highest compliment I could give Brenda would be to recommend her to a friend who really needs the skills and abilities that Brenda has and this is exactly what I did. I would also highly recommend her to anyone who is selling their home. I'm sure that Brenda has not had many sellers as nervous and insecure as I was and I can only say that she has enough great reserves of patience that she kept me from having daily meltdowns throughout the entire process. Brenda also had the resources and knowledge to wade through the ridiculous amount of red tape that Newton throws a seller up against and to reduce them to manageable proportions. She knows the markets; she understands the buyers and she's unflappable. Brava, Brenda!"

"Marsha has been an excellent Realtor throughout our home search and home buying process! My husband and I found Marsha when we were new to the area in the spring of 2020 and, despite the incredibly challenging timing, she was able to find us an apartment we loved. Because of this, when we finally decided to begin our home search, we knew we had to use Marsha's Realtor services once more. Not only was Marsha a Realtor extraordinaire during the process, she also served as an excellent navigator, with her expertise in the neighborhoods she showed us houses in, a great communicator, providing us with her honest opinion of each property we saw, and even cheerleader, lifting our spirits when the search became a little tougher than we imagined it would be. “She even took great care to contact the sellers' agents for the multiple open houses we attended, just to ensure that the conditions were safe enough for me to attend at 9 months pregnant AND with our newborn baby! As first-time homebuyers, Marsha also walked us through the closing process, connecting us with recommended specialists such as real estate attorneys, contractors, and mortgage lenders. She always checked in with us and made sure we were comfortable throughout the entire process. “Even after closing, she has been checking in with us regularly and continuing to offer excellent advice. Marsha is a highly knowledgeable, very responsive Realtor who takes great care of her clients from initial consultation through home closing and beyond. I highly recommend her for your next home search in the greater Boston area."

“Many thanks again for such a great first-time buying experience! Josh and I are so thrilled that everything is official, and really felt that the whole process went great from start to finish. It was fun seeing you on Friday--a great way to kick start an incredibly productive weekend.
“I know that my mom already sent you photos (she is so excited to have a new project!)...we kept saying how incredible the space looked with the hardwood exposed, and were in awe that no one had done this sooner! We are very excited to have you over to see the place after we're all moved in.
“Thanks again and we'll be in touch!”

“Barrie took on our Brookline condo under very difficult circumstances. She made herself very available for any potential buyers as well and kept me closely informed, which was especially important since I had moved out of state just as we put the property up for sale. I trusted her completely. She was so personable, honest, and even funny despite the circumstances, that she made a stressful situation so much more bearable.
“Barrie got a wonderful buyer and a good price for us. I was very lucky to have worked with her.”
-- Carole C., January 2022
“As first-time homebuyers, my wife and I littered Zach with questions from day 1 and he took each one with great patience and professionalism. He helped us look at various locations, and even offered up suggestions he thought we may like. Not once did we feel pressure from him. In fact, there were times when I forgot he was a Realtor and thought he was a friend who happened to know a lot about real estate. After one particular house, I remember saying ‘Whatever is the complete opposite of the house we just saw is what we want.’ We all laughed. “Ultimately, we ended up in a house from one of Zach's suggestions because he knew the area and we fell in love with it immediately. We've been beyond happy with it ever since and I can't thank Zach enough.”
“You were a great team and both complement one another. We enjoyed working with you during the entire selling process. You both made this stressful and emotional time easier on both of us. “Professionally, you are both a Ten! It doesn’t hurt to also have warm and caring personalities. We thank you both!”
-- Dinah and Ed, August 2019
“Our experience working with Debby was extraordinary! We lived in our home for over 25 years and Debby provided patient, non-pressured perspective leading up to our decision to sell. Once we gave her the green light to list our home she was incredibly proactive at every stage: She helped us see our home as buyers would so that we could get ahead of enhancing both its strengths and weaknesses; she provided concrete advice and referrals in connection with cleaning up and getting our house ready for sale; she thoughtfully and carefully prepared comps and walked us through the various strategic and tactical considerations of pricing - yet let us establish an asking price with which we could feel comfortable; she staged the house in a manner that would present the ‘story’ of the home; she aggressively pre-marketed our home to her wide and deep network of agents, developers, and buyers; she held our hand through the tense offer/acceptance stage; she monitored the legal and financial services aspects of the sale so that no time would be wasted prior to closing; and she kept us, the buyers, and the other professionals involved calm, cooperative, friendly, and measured. “Her work was a tour de force, and her high character, integrity, and honesty were evident in every aspect of the sale. We are, and will forever be, incredibly grateful to Debby and offer our unqualified and highest recommendation.”
-- Michael and Amy., October 2020
