Why Work With Us?
Here's what our satisfied customers are saying about us:
“Mona, I am very happy to be able to write this letter of reference in support of your work as a real estate agent in Brookline. Contracting with you as my representative on the sale of my home was one of the wisest decisions that I made in 2014. You and your colleague, Shari, were extraordinarily helpful to me in every aspect of what can be a very challenging ordeal. In the face of my foot-dragging, you gently urged me to seize the right moment for placing my home up for sale. In reaction to a slow-moving market, you wisely advised me to make a difficult price adjustment -- which in retrospect was absolutely the right thing to do. Your input was also invaluable during the post-offer phase, when all manner of difficulties arose with various details of the transaction. I don't know what I would have done without you. You earned every cent of your commission.
“So, I feel confident saying that whoever has the good fortune to secure your services in the future -- they will not regret having done so.”

“I appreciated the work of each team member and, especially, the problem solving and positive attitude of Pierre in getting the job done.”
-- Carlo, August 2020
“Debby was everything we could want in a real estate agent; knowledgeable, always available, and professional. She guided us in the sale of our home in which we had lived for 47 years. She knew the market and how to present our property for the greatest market impact. Our house sold in 5 days, and over-asking! “Her list of resources, be it an attorney, electrician, painter, or someone to haul away our unwanted things eased our transition.”
-- Linda and Richard P., August 2021
“We have so many things to thank you for. To start, your patience from the very beginning. You listened to our general ideas about a house and then our opinions on each and every house we toured. You never pushed and made us feel comfortable about our decision to keep looking. It continued to become clear to us that you truly had our best interests in mind. When we finally found our home it really felt like you were part of the team in making this decision. “Your knowledge, guidance, and assistance throughout the home-buying process was so very appreciated."
-- R. and J., December 2018
“We are so pleased to have worked with Michael Rothstein. Our family was looking for a home in Newton at a time when the market was quite competitive. Multiple bids were being offered on homes, but we needed to stick to our budget. Michael was patient and kept us in the loop with all of the properties coming onto the market. When we found our dream home, Michael¹s experience and deep knowledge of the market were essential for us to make the right offer and get it accepted.”
-- Randy and Tracy B., July 2012
“Mona and Shari are the most knowledgeable, experienced, and respected real estate agents in Brookline. In Brookline’s highly competitive market having the best real estate agent makes all the difference. As buyers, Mona and Shari helped us get our dream home in a very competitive market. They always had our best interest in mind and only let us buy a house that not only we love but would also be a good long-term investment. As sellers, Mona and Shari made the process incredibly seamless and fast. Selling a house can be a stressful and uncertain process, but with Mona and Shari we always felt we are in the best hands possible and couldn’t be happier with the outcome of both the selling and buying process. No wonder everyone in Brookline trusts and respects them.”
-- A. K., May 2021
“It is my pleasure to recommend Mona Wiener and her daughter Shari. I found them to be superlative real estate agents.
“Last March I engaged Mona to sell my mother’s home in Brookline. I selected Mona after interviewing a number of very qualified brokers. She stood out as the best.
“She handled the engagement flawlessly. She advised me about preparation for sale, the need to price the property properly, and all aspects of the real estate sales process. She and Shari were fully engaged for three months - from the time I hired them until the closing. Ultimately the house sold well above the asking price.
“I highly recommend Mona and Shari -- they are consummate professionals.”
-- Peter Z., January 2015
“Who knew a frugal couple moving into an expensive housing market could come out of the experience with warm feelings toward their Realtors?! Ann Marie Paul and Kathy Krongel worked within our budget, all while keeping the single-family home search in our desired location (within close proximity of the MBTA Green Line). They had just the right amount of hands-on and hands-off advice during our housing search. During moments of anxiety about finding a good fit in a house, they were candid in reminding us of our original expectations and did not push us to expand our search into other less expensive areas or into a higher price point. When a house in our budget and meeting our expectations appeared on the market, Ann Marie and Kathy helped our offer get accepted over the other 5 offers. I believe their experience, knowledge, pleasantly assertive personalities, and familiarity with seemingly all of the real estate agents in the area made our offer considered and ultimately accepted. My wife and I are grateful that this incredibly expensive and stressful time was shared with such kind, intelligent and professional Realtors.”
-- Kenan S., October 2016
“We asked Nancy to assist my 94-year old mother in selling her residence of 62 years. Needless to say, it was a very difficult task full of emotions, but we knew Nancy was the perfect person to act as our agent. She is a truly caring and thoughtful person who recognized the need to deal with my Mom in a special way. We sold the house very quickly, no doubt because of Nancy’s excellent real estate skills, and she made the entire process as comfortable as possible for my Mom. She also works with some terrific people in her office as well as some excellent outside professionals like attorneys. We would recommend Nancy to anyone, but certainly to someone who has an elderly parent. We can’t thank her enough for a great effort.”
-- Michael C., December 2018
“As we began the selling process, Janice came to us with an excellent intuition and knowledge relative to the market in February/March. We had a neighbor who had expressed interest in buying our house. Janice very sensitively managed the process so that our neighbors always felt that they were being treated fairly and were not in competition with other potential buyers. Once it was determined that they would not purchase the house, Janice was off to the races in order to get all of the necessary details addressed quickly to get our house listed, open houses scheduled, offers received and finalized. I think you know that it was nine days from the day she listed the house until we signed the P&S. She would tell you that it was an easy house to sell, and we do not disagree with her. However, we truly do not believe that just anyone would have been so easily able to manage us, as anxious and naïve sellers, and achieve a sale price that was above asking!
“In closing, our house would not have sold when it did and the price it did without Janice. She is truly a talented real estate agent and a talent that Hammond does not want to ever lose. Should she ever need a reference or should Hammond ever need a reference, please do not hesitate to ask. We are still in contact with Janice, which speaks volumes, and she knows how to reach us.”
