He helped us find our dream home each time without any pressure to rush or settle. He perfectly marketed our home sale, getting us multiple offers all above ask. If you want someone who is going to give you expert guidance without the "salesman" vibe, Andrew is your person. We recommend him without any reservations. Also a shout out to his colleague Dimitrios Makos who was also instrumental in our sale.

My first home purchase ever was…read morewith Andrew by my side in 2015. 10 years later, I sold that same condo with Andrew and even purchased a house with him. In all of my experiences with him, Andrew was very, very thoughtful, knowledgeable, and intentional about giving me the facts so that I myself could make an informed decision. He would offer multiple approaches and points of view and was clear that, ultimately, I was in the driver's seat and had the final decision. When my husband and I are ready to move on from our current home, we'll definitely be working with Andrew and his team.

Exceptional Real Estate Partner - Phil Delivers Results…read more I've had the pleasure of working with Phil at Park Hou Group through Splice on multiple transactions over the years. Phil helped me purchase a single-family home in Cambridge, buy a townhouse condo in Somerville, and later sell the condo. Each experience exceeded my expectations. Going Above and Beyond from Day One For my Cambridge purchase, Phil's team secured an early showing before the open house, allowing me to submit a competitive offer ahead of the crowd. In Cambridge's cutthroat market, this strategic move made all the difference--I'm confident I wouldn't have gotten the house otherwise. Phil provided an incredibly detailed comparative market analysis (CMA) that gave me the confidence to make a strong but justified offer. Expert Advice That Pays Dividends One of Phil's best recommendations was converting my 2-bed, 1.5-bath home into a 3-bed, 2-bath. This renovation created a versatile home office and guest room, and when I relocated, significantly increased the property's rental value. It's rare to find a realtor who thinks so strategically about long-term value. Unmatched Expertise and Resources Phil's personal experience with rental properties and renovations sets him apart. As a first-time renovator, I had countless questions, and Phil never hesitated to share his knowledge--even well after closing. I later learned he develops properties himself and manages investment properties for other clients, which explains his deep understanding of what to buy, what to avoid, and how to maximize ROI on improvements. A Full-Service Team with Vetted Professionals Phil has built an impressive network of trusted vendors--inspectors, architects, contractors, loan officers, attorneys, photographers, stagers, and more. When he makes a recommendation, I don't waste time researching alternatives because I know they're competent and fairly priced. This network is invaluable and saves tremendous time and stress. Proactive Marketing That Gets Results When selling my condo, Phil convinced me to stage the property (excellent advice) and staffed the open house with multiple team members to ensure every visitor felt attended to. What impressed me most was his follow-through--he personally called every prospective buyer multiple times for feedback and to maintain engagement. Phil doesn't just list properties; he actively sells them. Always Available, Always Professional Throughout every transaction, Phil was accessible via text and phone, answering questions and easing anxieties. His communication style is both professional and reassuring during what can be a stressful process. I've recommended Phil to all my friends because I genuinely believe you won't find a better realtor in the Boston area. His combination of market knowledge, strategic thinking, and exceptional service makes him an invaluable partner in any real estate transaction.

Splice Realty is and has been amazing…read more They were the reality group that help my partner and I brought our first home. On every step of the way, they walk and talk us though it. As first time home buyer, there were many things that we didn't know or weren't aware of. Splice educated us on so many different things such as flood zones, tax, and other fees. They made as feel comfortable with every decision and empower every decision with facts. They honesty and fact checking was something we needed. Buying a house is difficult but factors such as the pandemic and inflation doesn't make anything easier. So we highly recommend this group. They really do have your back, have your best interest, make time for any questions you have, and never rush the sale. Thank you, Splice!

This is long overdo. I had such a great experience with Presidential Properties. I have used so…read moremany different companies in the past, but they are absolutely the best. They were extremely patient and when I ran into a issue with my application they went beyond to help me get my place. The communication is incredible and they will answer questions all day/night.

I found Presidential Properties after seeing their posts on Craigslist, and out of all the agencies…read moreI contacted, they were the most professional throughout the entire process. Kristie emailed me back promptly with a questionnaire to see what I was looking for and what she could offer me. She set me up to look at apartments with Angela, who was very pleasant and honest about the places we were seeing. In less than an hour, I had found an apartment that fit my budget, and it was recently renovated and professionally managed. I signed the lease two days later. I still browse the Craigslists posts and feel like I landed an incredible apartment for the price, so these people did me a great service. Some may not be willing to pay a finder's fee, but Presidential Properties has access to places you'd never find otherwise, they're extremely professional, and the process is as quick and stress-free as you could ever imagine. I would definitely work with them again if I wanted a Beacon Hill apartment, and I've recommended them to friends who are in the market for places.

If was for sale a realtor cannot contact the seller must go through the agent. Not to mention I have been on the National Do Not Call List from the Federal Trade Commission since 2011.Then says he is allowed to then tells me to "shut my fone"...Look at this exchange. Who would want a realtor that harasses you to get your property listing. His goal was to list it, Wrong approach buddy! He is an agent/owner he knows it is Not for sale nor on the MLS yet trying to get the listing. Have some class! Sellers beware .Go to a reputable agency !

From day one, they were attentive, kind, and fun as they got to know us and what we were looking for, and they were so helpful in both keeping eagle eyes on the market, advising us on locations and details of listings, and arranging visits and accompanying us on both private showings and open houses. As we know, this was a tough time to be looking for a house, and we of course narrowed our search to one of the most competitive towns in the country right now, but Mike & Shawna were great throughout the process and they made it enjoyable despite the difficulty. When we made offers, they really supported us in making good ones without overpaying, and when we finally got an offer accepted they were pros at the agreement process. Selling our condo was a breeze in comparison, and they did such a great job pricing it right, preparing everything, and doing the showings, resulting in several offers over our expectations. Everything from the first call to the closing went as smoothly as it could in this market, and we landed in a home that surpassed our expectations for under our budget, and we're loving it! Thank you Mike & Shawna! We would absolutely recommend them to anyone from first time home buyers to established homeowners.

He only takes on three buyers at a time so he knows what kind of properties you are looking for and can accompany you to open houses.

As a first time home buyer, you must make a lot of choices. For me, choosing the right Realtor was…read moreone of the most important ones. In this market, I knew I needed to work with some one who was highly experienced and deeply embedded in the community I wanted to live in. I choose to work with Ann Harrington at Lighthouse Realty and am so glad I did! From the first to the most recent contact, (I won't say last, because I now count Ann as a friend), I felt supported, encouraged and guided. with 30+ years in Real Estate, Ann knows her stuff and as a community member she provides a unique perspective as both a Realtor and a neighbor. She provided insight and guidance, while helping me develop my own perspective. We looked at the market, my personal situation and then different neighborhoods before looking at specific properties. She suggested homes and also let me pick (because all new home buyers will constantly be on the apps looking) ones to visit. When visiting properties, she let me look and evaluate first, then asked me what I thought. She guided me without telling me what I did or didn't want. She pointed out features and also opportunities for change or improvement. Without fail, any open house I attended alone the listing agent knew Ann and spoke well of her. When we found my home, she was on top of every detail and provided me with so much information and perspective. She is extremely thorough and detailed in her work. She always answered my calls, texts or emails promptly. When we hit a potential snag with the lender, she jumped right in and went above and beyond what she had to do- advocating for me and helping to quickly resolve the issue. My home buying process was really smooth because of Ann and I can't thank her or recommend her enough. She covers all of Massachusetts, but is a specialist in the very competitive South Shore Market.
