You were offer ed personal service with a smile.... Please consider removing your unfair review of our company. I dont mind if you write a review stating the agent was late but to say you werent taken care of is BULLSHIT...." The writer also insinuated I worked for another rental agent, which I proudly do not. His lack of punctuation tells me, on the other hand, that he is authentic ABG realty material. ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Scheduled an appointment with these bums to take a look at a place. Had to leave work early to accommodate the agent's schedule (first clue they weren't going to help), then when I showed up at their office on time, the agent hadn't bothered to call and let me know he was running late, so he wasn't there. The rest of the people in the office were unhelpful, and even rude, as I tried to figure out how to see this place. A thought dawned on me as they kept on with their "whatever" attitude: I'll just leave and look for "for rent" signs, since these signs are exactly as smart and do the same job as the agents...except don't charge fees. Avoid this place, and the geniuses who work therein.

When i refused to work with him because he was very rude all the other agents did not help me at all and kept assuring me they would contact him and didnt. All i wanted was the price of the property!!!! I then called 3 days later after not having my calls returned and spoke to a manager who wanted to explain to me why Lou told me to drop dead! If you are a selling property i would not work with them they clearly do not have selling your property in mind. The property i was trying to purchase has been on the market for over 3 years and i can see why, because of ABG!

And by the end of the week I had signed for a place. Xander was there, very personable, friendly, and knowledgeable. Willing to explain things and usually with an answer within two hours of my question. He has this process as painless as possible and I can only wish that works as well for you.

They gave me their "stock" lease when I moved in which I didn't realize at first says that the rent may be raised at any point during the term of the lease. They told me laundry was in the building even though it isn't. To sum it up, they are a bunch of snakes that will say anything to get you into one of the apartments they're showing. Tommy and co are now responsible for showing the apartment that I am moving out of. Tommy and his team have made the process so painful. They don't communicate well or truthfully with me, the landlord, or the perspective tenants. Do not trust Bushari. Do not trust Tommy. They do not deserve your business, and I have told the landlord that he should not work with them either.

In doing my research of apartments in the area, this apartment managed by Bozzuto stood out in terms of the property, the location, and also the quality of the management company. Reviews on Apartments.com and Yelp have been overwhelmingly positive (with only real complaint being rowdy undergraduates who are no longer allowed to lease in these apartments), and I can confirm that my own experience is accurately reflected by these reviews. I've worked with Christian who was friendly yet professional in phone calls and email communications, and he's been very responsive and willing to help.

I quickly responded "2pm today." Thus, I drove about an hr to the apartment showing. 1:50pm, just 10 minutes before the showing, he calls me and says that the current tenant does not want to be bothered after 2pm.. and asks "can you wait until 6pm?" I answered, "No, I can't. Why didn't you tell be this BEFORE we confirmed for 2pm?" He replied, "It's your fault for wanting to change it to 11 or 12....maybe you should find someone else!" and hung up.

In this transaction, she worked directly with the owner (who elected not to have an agent) and made this deal happen, not just for me, but for the original owner as well. In addition to being an utmost professional, Ivy is just a great person. She is kind, considerate and wants to help. Eric Levine works closely with Ivy and is the "man behind the scenes" who just makes things happen so you don't have to worry about it at all! One big thank you to him too!

My girlfriend and I had decided to move in together, and both got jobs in the city. We were nervous to move from western MA, because we knew that competition for places we could afford was tough. Craigslisting alone wouldn't cut it, but it was important to us to invest in a brokerage that had realtors that were personable, yet maintained a high standard for professionalism. Max exceeded all of our expectations. Once we had found our dream apartment in East Boston, Max went above and beyond and did everything in his power to make sure the place was ours. Needless to say, we are here today and are so happy we went through The Ivy Team. Max was very easy to work with, was very straightforward and transparent throughout the whole process, and embodied a perfect balance of friendliness and professionalism.
