My wife and I met Stephanie and Beth at an open house a few years ago. I had already been looking…read moreto ditch my agent at the time, mostly because he was not listening to me and he was pushing us towards a decision that he would make, not necessarily a choice we wanted. (We moved from the city to North Shore-a big decision for us as we've been downtown for over a decade, and still love it). Then we ran into Steph/Beth at another subsequent open house. I'd had enough with my old agent's pushy/slime-y salesmanship and we had built a quick and comfortable rapport with Beth/Steph. The decision was clear, for buying in the North Shore, we would begin a working relationship with Beth/Steph. Over the course of two years, they graciously guided us through searching, knowing the whole time we may not end up pulling the trigger for a long time. That didn't matter to them, they weren't hunting for a deal. They were fighting for our best interests, which I love. Never pushy, always helpful and always patient. In my experience, you don't often see that with realtors. You often get the hard sell, desperation mode style of pitching a deal. That hard sell and aggressive tactics tells me as a customer that they don't really care about the client, they just care about their commission. Stephanie and Beth are the polar opposite and we consider ourselves lucky to have had a few chance run ins that turned into a fruitful working relationship. Win-Win through and through. No matter what end of a real estate transaction you're on, Beth and Stephanie have all my praise and confidence in stewarding a client from start to finish.

I was recently commissioned by Highland Park Realtor, Beth Alberts to assist with a home staging…read moreproject for one of her listings. A rather large home with lots of stuff to shuffle about, I was completely impressed by Beth's ability to quickly identify the strengths and weaknesses of the home and determine what needed to be accomplished prior to getting it on the market. Completely hands-on with obvious design sense, she gave great direction and even brought in loads of throw pillows and artwork from her own home to see her vision through. Though I haven't worked with Beth personally on the sale or purchase of a home, I would highly recommend her services. She works fast, has the utmost respect for her clients and thorough knowledge for what a buyer would want to see. Beth is willing to go above and beyond to get the job done. And, here's the proof, because she just announced the house went under contract with multiple offers in only seven days!

He is the consummate professional: responsible, reasonable, knowledgeable, and is an excellent advocate for his clients. He knows the North Shore better than anyone. He's also very reasonable on fees. He represented me in two lease deals. I found the process to be easy and he helped shape the tenant paperwork and get us into a place quickly (a big help when we had young kids!). He also worked on negotiations to save us hundreds of dollars a month. He's a stand up guy and he really gets to know what is important for clients. He also represented us on the sell side of a condo in the city during a challenging real estate market. He got the darn thing sold at a good price and faster than we expected. On our buy side deal, he helped us find local contractors and vendors to conduct repairs for our new home and otherwise made the closing process very easy. The technology his firm uses is outstanding and it really helps the deal come together quickly. Yes, brokers have to charge a fee but with Alan he earned it and more. He was available at all hours every day and it was impressive work ethic. Alan is a trusted agent and I will NOT do another deal anywhere without him. I'd give him six stars but Yelp only allows 5.

Alan was awesome when we sold our house and awesome when we found our new home! 100% use Alan to…read morebuy and sell!
