Why Work With Us?

 “Irene is an experienced, smart, professional real estate broker. She pays attention to details, is very communicative, and surrounds herself with competent colleagues (stagers, contractors, etc.) all focused on getting the job done with as few hassles as possible. She deftly advised, marketed, staged, and ultimately sold my house for way over the asking price. In addition to all these great qualities she is a truly kind and caring person, able to respond to people with empathy and sensitivity—a rare combination of skills!”

“I keep recommending Irene to my friends and colleagues who are looking to buy or sell in Brookline. She spent a whole afternoon with friends of mine who were looking to move here from Texas. She was so wonderful, taking the time to really listen to them about their housing needs and preferences and showing them a range of homes that might interest them. They were wowed, and so was I. I would recommend her to anyone!”

“Barrie was instrumental in helping us find and buy our first home. We told her what we were looking for and she found us the perfect house. She was kind, encouraging and responsive throughout the entire process, making sure we were always prepared for and comfortable with the next step well ahead of time. In addition to the buying process, Barrie has continued to be in touch helping us find local contractors and answering any questions we have about homeownership.

“We can't recommend her highly enough to anyone looking to find the perfect home!”

“Susan and Jen Rothstein worked tirelessly with me for well over two years as I went through the process of downsizing from a house that had become too much for me to take care of to a more manageable condo. They understood my preferences and priorities, were incredibly patient during the time it took for me to be emotionally ready to leave the house I had lived in for 45 years and helped me find a condo that I liked in the same neighborhood, only a few blocks away. They were on top of all of the details involved in selling the house and buying the condo and were both supportive and professional from beginning to end. I recommend them without reservation.”

“My husband and I are honestly in the house of our dreams because of Irene Kerzner. She was everything we needed her to be throughout this long and difficult process of buying our first home. With her expert eye and deep understanding of what we wanted, she guided us through what felt like countless open houses, suggesting we see a place she thought had potential or dissuading us from a bust. We felt completely heard and understood by her, and it was Irene who first saw ‘our house’ -- the one we bought -- she knew it was the right one when she saw it. When it came time to make an offer, she gracefully and expertly navigated us through the tricky process of making a competitive offer in a red-hot market. I honestly don't think we could have gotten this house had it not been for her spot-on intuition combined with her extensive knowledge of the ins and outs of the market. On top of all this, she was reassuring, communicative, and supportive. 

“We honestly can't say enough glowing things about Irene. You'd be crazy to go with anyone else.”

“Upon our first meeting, it was clear that Irene was the right person to assist us with the sale of our West Roxbury home. She was knowledgeable about the market trends in our neighborhood, and quickly crafted a plan to present our home in the best light, which included the coordination of minor contract work to the exterior and home staging with the help of Heidi Wells. The end result was BEAUTIFUL. Thanks to Irene and Heidi's efforts, we received multiple, above-asking price offers on our home within a matter of days after going on the market. Irene and the Concierge Home Sales team took the stress out of selling a home and provided valuable guidance throughout the entire process.”

“Recently I had to sell my parents’ home in Newton Centre, but I didn’t know any local real estate brokers. After interviewing nine agents, I met Irene and Heidi of Concierge Home Sales and knew they were the right team for the job. I couldn’t have made a better choice. From the moment I met Irene she exuded a positive energy and a thorough understanding of the Newton market. Irene is not only a fabulous real estate agent -- selling my parent’s house in 3 days at a great price -- she did it with integrity, hard work and a subtle awareness of what was necessary to sell a 100-year old home. Heidi took the outdated home and presented it in a simple, stylish and beautiful fashion. Both ladies are problem-solvers, skillful negotiators and efficient, effective communicators. I would recommend the Irene/Heidi team to absolutely anyone.”

“Elissa Rogovin is truly an exceptional real estate agent!  She worked with us for the better part of two years as we planned a relocation from Ohio to Boston.  As we were unfamiliar with the area, Elissa assisted us with all aspects of our move including touring us around many different communities and towns (several times), providing helpful information and resources about the Boston area, visiting properties on our behalf, touring properties with us when we were in town, and finally, expertly guiding us through the purchase of a home when we found a house we fell in love with. 

“Throughout the entire process, she provided us with the best possible service and also referred us to other excellent professionals who assisted with the inspection, mortgage, closing, etc.  Her deep knowledge of the area, advice, and guidance were invaluable and her calm, professional, and patient manner very reassuring during what would otherwise have been a highly stressful time.  On top of that, she is a genuinely wonderful person who I am now glad to be able to call a friend.  I can’t recommend Elissa highly enough!”

“My wife and I were looking for a second home and Katie met us almost every weekend for 14 months with detailed itineraries and appointments. We saw approximately 60 homes during that time and Katie was exceptionally professional, offering guidance and preaching patience as we, at times, became discouraged with coming up empty.

"Finally, in December, Katie contacted us about a house that had been under agreement, but the contract fell through. She arranged for a Saturday morning showing before any other buyers had a chance to see it and we made an offer 30 minutes in the showing.

“We are very pleased with our new home and cannot thank Katie enough for her help and support in finding the perfect home.”
