Why Work With Us?

"Nancy helped us find our new home in Newton. She was extremely professional, knowledgeable, and very responsive to all our needs and questions. Given we were out of state buyers, and were only in MA for a few short weekends, we felt we were quite demanding. She was extremely patient and understanding of our needs and unique circumstances. Best part about working with Nancy was that we could rely on her for good and honest advice. 

“Even after the closing, we had a 2 weeks’ delay before we could move to MA, and as luck would have it, we had two nor'easters in that two week period. She proactively reached out to ask if we needed any help with the house. She helped arrange for snow cleaning during the snow days, which was extremely helpful. We were really happy we picked Nancy as our buyer's agent and would recommend her any time to anyone who is looking to buy or sell."

“Ava, I was so grateful for all the hard work you did in marketing my home. You knew the market cold and you handled everything personally. You managed complicated access restrictions and complicated customers and handled everything with grace and integrity.” “Thanks so much.”

“Irene and Martha were the exact partners we hoped for and needed to find our first home. They were equal parts patient, opinionated, proactive, warm, and optimistic. Our search, which began and concluded in a very competitive market, had a wind-y path, as we began looking closer to Boston, but ultimately found our dream home further out than we initially expected in Wellesley.

“Every step of the way, they consistently listened to our feedback, let us dictate how active or engaged we wanted them to be on our behalf, and importantly, voiced their opinions in the right moments to guide us without ever pushing us to do something we weren't comfortable with.

“Irene and Martha were often better able to articulate what we were looking for than we could, to the point where they scouted out many more properties for us in advance of us visiting firsthand. This shows how much we trusted their judgement! We would highly recommend Irene and Martha for anyone looking to buy a home in the MetroWest and Boston areas!”

“I was worried in such a hot market that I would not be able to find a home after selling mine without going into a bidding war. I was also worried I would not find exactly what I was looking for, as inventory is low in Brookline. The Michele Friedler Team put all my worries to ease!

“Michele and Dakotah were not only extremely knowledgeable about the market place for sellers, but also for buyers as well. They guided me through a hard process and made it look easy doing it!

“I would definitely recommend the team to my peers. When I went to find a home they found me exactly what I was looking for. They knew how important it was for me to find a home with an attached heated garage. They found me a home that ticks all of the boxes and then some! Aside from that, the team was also able to negotiate effectively and I felt I paid a reasonable price for my home. Lastly, they were always easily available via a phone call or email quickly to answer any questions I had. I appreciated their quick responses and level of professionalism.”

“We are so happy to have worked with you and hope to do so again in the future. Thank you again for all your help and support throughout this whole process!”

“We were very happy with our decision to work with real estate agent Elissa Rogovin to list our two homes for sale. From the start, Elissa showed us her expertise and professionalism.  She gave us her best advice each and every time we had questions or doubts.

“The fall 2020 housing market was hot and moving fast.  Elissa jumped into action and within a few days our homes were photographed and ready for an open house. Both open houses were a success and we received buyer offers on Day 1!  

“Thanks to Elissa we had a flawless real estate experience and have happily settled in our new home! Thank you, Elissa!  You love what you do and you get the results too!”

"Maxine helped us buy a condo in a way that no one else could have. She took the time to figure out how to make our offer stand out, and then shepherded the entire process. Long-distance seller, tight timeline, first-time buyers, for-sale-by-owner - none of that fazed Maxine, who helped make the entire process a breeze."

“Barrie Wheeler is a warm, personal and very user-friendly Realtor. She knows her neighborhoods well and has a strong working knowledge of what the market will bear in each.  She was able to explain all of this information to me with ease in a simple straightforward manner.  She looks you straight in the eye when interacting with you and this means a great deal to me. 

“Selling my home in West Newton, the home in which I raised my child as a single mother, was nothing short of daunting, but Barrie made the whole process so much easier for me since I knew without a single doubt that she advocated for me and was going to get me the best possible price for my home.  She appeared to appreciate my home almost as much as I did.  She realized this was more than a simple transaction for me and understood where I was on my life journey.  She always welcomed my input and in fact changed her approach according to it several times during my preparation period as well as selling period.  I really treasured the fact that she spent a lot of time with me and never made me feel rushed. Several times I needed to call her after hours on her cell phone to ask a question and she engaged me as fully then as during her work day.

“I would happily and fully recommend Barrie to anyone who needs help with buying or selling their home; the relationship they will have with her will not disappoint!  If I can be of further help, I would welcome a call to discuss my experience with Barrie.”
 

“For my wife and I who were first-time sellers, Michele's team was perfect for us because of three main things. 1) We needed a lot of hand-holding throughout this process and her team patiently walked us through the steps, including letting us know what things were important to address and who were reliable contractors to use. They also always had someone available to handle things at the property if we weren't available. 2) Michele's experience really became really obvious when it came down to negotiations. Her sense of the market is impeccable and she knew exactly when and how we should use our leverage to get the price we wanted. Leading up to our closing date, she guided us through which buyer requests were reasonable and which were things we could push back on. 3) Being first-time sellers, we were pretty anxious overall about the process. One of the best things (and something that is oddly hard to find among real estate agents) is that she is extremely responsive, by e-mail or text. I'm not sure if she actually ever sleeps.

“Overall, I would definitely recommend Michele and her team if you're looking to sell.”'

“Michele was excellent. She understood our needs and helped us find a beautiful home. After showing several homes, she quickly discerned our desires, narrowed our search, and found a perfect home.”
