We can't speak highly enough of our experience with Alida Tangherlini at InRealty. We were…read morefirst-time homebuyers with very little knowledge about how to find the right place. We met with a couple of realtors before Alida, but we knew instantly that she was the one for us. She is honest, knowledgeable, hands-on (she even crawled into creepy attics and basements to check insulation for us!) and she really helped to take the pressure off of us. We never felt forced to make an offer and when we finally found the "one", Alida walked us through every step of the negotiations and provided us with great tips! We are so grateful every day to Alida for helping us! We highly recommend Alida to anyone looking to buy a home!! She's the best!!

I recently purchased a home in Dorchester and the property was represented by Olde Towne…read more I originally met Susan at one of the open houses and she was extremely kind and informative on the property. I ran into her a few more times as I was a little indecisive in my home search. Either way, during the whole process, she was extremely helpful and willing to answer any questions that I had. After making an offer on the property, I figured I was done with Olde Towne other than through paperwork, but due to some issues with the builders that had constructed the house, the process was a bit drawn out. Through each consecutive inspection or walk-through, Doug was accommodating and available to not only open the property to me, but just to walk through and chat. With other properties I toured with other companies, I felt a lot of pressure and insincerity, but I did not feel that way working with Doug and Olde Towne. Whether it was frustration with the slow sale process, or just him trying to be a friendly guy, he took a hit on his commission to help the seller and I meet in the middle on the selling price. That is what solidified the deal. Once I moved into the neighborhood, Doug saw me from across the street and ran across to greet me and to ask all about how things were going for me. While it might not seem like a big deal, it was nice to have someone in the neighborhood make me feel welcome. I would heavily endorse Olde Towne to anyone looking to buy or sell a property, especially in the Dorchester area.

Nadine worked with us for a year as our buyer's agent while we searched for a new home. She is a…read moregem! Hardworking, dedicated, professional, trustworthy, and very pleasant to be with. Nadine guided us through an unusual purchase (though she would say that every real estate transaction is unusual...) and never lost patience. You'd expect a real estate professional to be knowledgeable about Boston's neighborhoods, and Nadine truly is. Beyond that, a few things really set her apart from the rest: 1. She has an intimate knowledge of buildings old and new-- she sees beyond cosmetics, she will inform you about hidden costs, and she's able to give sound, practical advice about what a property needs, what could be done with it, and what the work is likely to cost. 2. Her experience providing broker price opinions for banks gives her more insight about the market than other agents. 3. She listens. Anyone who has worked with an agent who doesn't listen (and there are a lot of them) will know how valuable this is.

We all must celebrate once the dust settles. Until then, have a great day!

If you need help please visit this place. I heard it is a black owned business and that Mamés it even more appealing to me.

We recently sold our family home in Dorchester and had an amazing experience with the Galvin Group…read more From the first phone call to the closing day Eamon Galvin and the team at the Galvin Group made sure we had a stellar experience. While initially deciding on a realtor we interviewed several, we never felt pressured at the Galvin Group. They were happy to answer our questions about the market and we were able to get to know how they did business before ultimately signing on with them, quickly realizing they were the best realtor group servicing Dorchester. Our realtor Eamon Galvin took care of every detail of the sale, keeping us updated to ensure things were proceeding to our satisfaction. Eamon went above and beyond for us, I can't recommend him enough. Call Eamon at the Galvin Group, you will be happy you did!

I was the tenant currently residing in a one bedroom in Dorchester that the Galvin Group was…read moreselling. The whole process started off very dicey, as my landlord never confirmed with me that he was working with the Galvin Group. I just started getting random texts from them about showing my apartment. It was around Christmas time when they started to ramp up their showings. For the week of Christmas and the weekend of New Years, they were relentless about showing my place. I understand business is business, but you'd think they might lay off during the week of Christmas, especially since I was living there. But what I am truly upset about is when my identity got stolen. My place was shown on February 19th - 4 days later a fraudulent credit card account was opened in my name. I didn't find out until about a month later when I received the bill. After filing a police report, I called Craig to express my concerns. He made it into a joke asking "did they buy anything good at least?" My identity just got stolen (possibly from a stranger that came into my apartment) and this is a joke to you? He then proceeded to let me know he was always available in case I needed a realtor in the future. I was not calling him to joke around, nor was I calling to do business. I am truly disappointed in their level of professionalism and their lack of regard for tenants. To be honest, I am not too surprised in how this all went down considering my former landlord, Mike had absolutely no respect for his tenants nor his fellow condo-owners - and like attracts like....

PLEASE stay away if you are a new agent!…read more I was approached by the Mandrell company with the offer of a higher than normal commission split and the promise of plenty of opportunities. What I got was $0 in the 5 months I was there. 1 single lead from the company, which panned out to be nothing and then was told to " write letters and make cold calls" to find my other leads. They do not pay for premier services, so if you want internet generated leads you are going to be out of pocket more than $500 a month. I had paid out of pocket for the company to sponsor a local YMCA swim team, and have in wiritg that they would reimburse me its been 2 months and I have not seen anything. I wrote to both the owner and the office manger three times in the last week giving them my notice and asking for my money and they have no returned any emails, but have removed me from their website. Training is a joke with this company.

We were extremely picky from the start and this didn't bother Shannon at all. She asked the right questions to help find the best home that suit our needs. She also didn't push us into something we didn't like and she was extremely patient when we would walk in the front door of a home and immediately walk out. After a full day of visiting homes in Methuen the last one we looked at was the perfect one and we all knew it. After putting our offer in, the real fun began, well not fun but the back and forth of the paper work etc. Honestly we probably wouldn't survived this process without Shannon, she patiently walked us through each step. Explained what we had to do when. And she was always available via text message. I found her to be a good friend throughout this process and I honestly don't understand how she does it all. So if you are worried, scared, and not at all excited about buying your next home, call Shannon. She is the best person for this job and the best person to help you find your dream home. We wouldn't / couldn't have done it without her. Ps... typing this from the table in our new kitchen, so happy!

A couple…read morebad experiences here and there, so when I contacted Ryan and he seemed like a genuinely nice guy, I was still skeptical. He came and picked us up to show us a few houses over the course of an afternoon. By the end of the afternoon, I told my fiance this was the guy I wanted to use. He's an honest dealer, the type of guy with a firm handshake who looks you in the eyes when he meets you. I'm sure he had other clients, but I wouldn't have known. We would call with questions (sometimes very stupid ones), probably more often than the norm, and he'd always politely answer our questions. My fiance and I also have weird schedules so showings were often all over the place, but he worked with us and was very accommodating. One thing to note, too, I have a pet peeve when people refuse to say "I don't know" and instead BS an answer rather than admit not knowing something. Ryan doesn't do this. If he did not know the answer to a question (rare anyways, this is a smart guy who does his homework), he'd apologize, look up the information, and immediately get back to us. I really liked that. Anyways, highest recommendation for Ryan Conachen. I've recommended him to friends and coworkers who've also praised him. Do yourself a favor and hire an honest, good guy to help you find your house.

Although we are parents of two small children, he INSISTED that our appointment be on Sunday morning at 10am. After struggling to get two small children up and across town for the showing of the apartment and arriving promptly at 9:55 am, We were shocked to see that Jonathan STILL hadn't arrived. We waited, and waited (with our 1 year old and 4 year old)... and around 10:15am he texted my husband stating that he was on his way... with a follow up message asking us not to leave. When Jonathan DID arrive (at 10:30am) he rushed us through the viewing of the apartment!!!! All because he had another appointment scheduled for 11am that he simply couldn't risk being late for! After being rushed out of the apartment, because he had to "lock up" before his next showing, we forwarded our applications to his email. My husband texted him inquiring about the applications we submitted to WHICH HE ACTUALLY REPLIED: "You and your wife's credit are still very bad. However, your co-signers credit is excellent." Who actually says that to a client?! Not to discredit any other realtors at At Home Boston, but I have NEVER dealt with a more unprofessional real estate agent in my life.
