Jenny May's name is well known throughout the North…read moreShore and I know she's been in the Real Estate Business for quite some time so she was my first choice. My condo sold in a very timely manner (within 2 months). Jenny made the process incredibly easy for me and helped me understand exactly what I needed to do, what was happening, our next steps, all of it at a pace that didn't overwhelm me. She gave me sound advice and dealt with my initial "not sure if I am ready to do this" having had the condo for so long. She's very patient, straightforward and VERY easy to work with. Jenny went beyond the call of duty with items that needed to be done for me since I am over an hour away (living full time in Maine). If I know anyone looking to buy, sell or rent, I will pass along Jenny May's card!

John and Cindy came highly recommended to us when beginning our home search in the North Shore…read more They focused on understanding our requests and really getting to know us as a couple. They joined us on many open houses and helped us to effectively evaluate the property, price and prospects of the homes we saw. It was our second visit to an open house in Marblehead where John and Cindy helped us see the potential in what would be our future home. They led us through a seamless offer and acceptance process which allowed us to buy the home we own today!

Phil O'Donnell of Armstrong Field is absolutely the best. He is everything a real estate agent…read moreshould be: Friendly, courteous, responsive, and knowledgeable. If he doesn't know the answer to a specific question he has the broad connections to get it. But what sets Phi apart are the intangibles: HIs patience, his persistence, and his fierce devotion to his clients. He really is in it for your long-term satisfaction. With Phil in your corner you have a true ally. Everyone should be blessed at least once in their life to work with an agent like Phil.

We were first-time homebuyers who weren't sure we could even make it through the process, when we…read morefirst met with Patrick Runne. We were nervous before the meeting that any real estate agent would give us a hard sell on either (a) considering condominiums, or (b) looking outside the price range where we felt comfortable. My husband and I had even heard rumors that some buyers agents weren't interested in working with people whose budgets were modest. We shouldn't have worried. Instead of pushing us in any direction, Patrick took great care (and lots of time) during that first meeting to talk about the process, answer our questions, and get to know us. He assured us that he'd never try to get us to spend more than we could afford. He said he would never ask us to consider options that wouldn't make us happy. After a single weekend -- and a few open houses -- Patrick understood what we were looking for better than we could even articulate to ourselves. (For example, he realized, before we did, that we wanted a yard more than we wanted a second bathroom). Patrick held our hands through some tough decision-making, was always available, and never talked down to us. We closed on our first home a few days ago, entirely thanks to Patrick. He is a credit to his profession. Before I met Patrick, I wasn't even really sure what a "buyers' agent" really did...now I would never consider telling anyone to embark on this process without one. I will be recommending Patrick to everyone who will listen. I am so happy with the entire process.

Wonderful Buildings, Terrible Management company. They have quotes such as "Unlimited amenaties"…read moreand then take them away at any given time. They do everything in their power to make sure they collect money and don't have to work.

They refuse to do anything about complaints or service request because they rather collect the cash. If you like the place you are moving into great! Just Renter beware.

I worked with Joanne who was wonderful to work with. I believe Joanne was retired or was about to retire, and I think this company is run/owned by her son, John. (Sorry if I don't have that exactly right!) I had been new to Massachusetts in 2012, and Joanne gave me all the intro information I needed in order to get comfortable in Salem. She told me about great places to eat, about great spots to get inexpensive furniture, as well as other helpful information. She even gave me a ride back to the train because it was cold and late. I just wanted to leave a review since even after a couple of years have passed, I still remember how easy/positive it was to deal with Harbor Rental! If I were to move locally, I would go to this company first. My impression was that they are good people and that they really know Salem.

If you're an engineer type like me, he'll give you a spreadsheet market analysis, if you are are more mood and feel, he will speak to that. 5) Great negotiator 6) Super punctual and responsive, we pulled off a 30-day closing window which wouldn't have been possible w/o Rich's professionalism I could go on. So glad we found him.

He was very thorough when looking at houses with us and pointed out things to look out for that we would have otherwise missed. He worked diligently on our behalf from the time we hired him as our agent through closing. In that time we saw quite a few houses and made several offers, but not once did we ever feel pressured by Rich - he very much works for his clients and is not at all pushy, which we sincerely appreciated! I would recommend Rich to anyone looking to buy a home in Greater Boston!
