From start to finish Judy and Steve made the sale of our home of the last 22years seamless. The pictures were beautiful and the home was marketed extremely well.

I highly recommend Judy Greenberg and her team!

Ryan Gable from Starting Point Realty was our agent when we were shopping for a house. We're first…read moretime home buyers, and even though we did as much self-learning education we could, he taught us there was always more and more to learn during the home buying process. Even though we had a hard time deciding between single family homes (Detached) and town homes/Condos (Attached), Ryan was always patient with us. He was with us every step of the way with great insights on affordability, explaining how home offers work, even when we decided to switch our search locations! No matter the twists and turns we presented (I'm sorry Ryan!!), Ryan stood by our side the entire process. In fact, he was a mentor for us, who went to essentially EVERY single house we wanted to see, who gave valuable opinions and insights on every home and even the area where the home was located. He checked in with us and made sure we actually loved the house instead of pushing us towards a home to make a quick sale. Ryan is the kind of real estate agent you would want; patient, will educate you during the whole process, and will ensure you're taken care of during the whole process!

Ryan was incredibly knowledgeable, experienced and empathetic.

Ryan was down to earth and walked us through each step, always respectful of our situation and perspective while providing honest and insightful counsel. Ryan worked with us even before any formal agreement, advising on remodeling and market value. We had to sell our condo due to unemployment, it was an emotionally difficult process but Ryan and his team were always supportive and compassionate. Ryan went above and beyond in terms of availability and providing hands on help. This process could have been an absolute nightmare with a lesser realtor, but we always felt safe guided by Ryan's expertise.

They found multiple investment properties for us, advised us regarding bidding strategy for the one we wanted, and stayed on stop of it even after the seller went with another buyer. The persistence paid off as the seller contacted Amy directly after the other buyer walked which enabled us to secure the property without it going back on the market again for a competitive bid. She has also been helpful in determining which renovations are essential, gauging optimal rent based on the current market and actually finding tenants for our vacant units. In short, our experience has been fantastic and we look forward to providing repeat business.

The process was very well explained and they both were extremely patient with all our questions we had. We met Alan at an open house and he was so nice and very personable. I knew right away that this is who we wanted to work with. We met Karen a few days later and she was just like Alan; Fantastic! They found some houses that matched our criteria and we went to look at them. There was no pressure and they were very knowledgeable about everything. I can't say enough about them being so patient and really wanting the best for us. If you're looking to sell or buy I strongly recommend contacting them. We have been in our home a few years now, and love it. We also recently sold our investment property with them, and they handled all renovations & the process of the sale making it a hands off process for us. Thank you for everything and making us smile everyday about working with you.

I cannot speak highly enough of RE/MAX Suburban with Susan, Ron, and David Pickard!!! They have…read morebuilt a team and comprehensive network of professionals that know how to deliver in all aspects of home purchases. I went from thinking the possibility of a home purchase was 3-5 years away... to finding and closing on my forever home in 20 days with the Pickard's guidance, help, and assembled team. The Pickard RE/MAX Suburban Team was referred to me by a lifelong friend who has exclusively worked with the Pickard's over the past 15 years for home rentals, purchases, and sales. Initially my goal was to attain a 3-5 year home rental and then transition into a home purchase. After seeing the elevated rental prices with limited inventory, I asked Ron Pickard, "can I purchase now?" Ron answered "yes, let me show you how." From there Ron & David worked with an outstanding Mortgage Broker to create a comprehensive purchase & financing strategy that worked for where I was at and what I could do. David was able to help me find, negotiate, and acquire my "Forever Home". David assembled my purchasing team of Mortgage Broker, Lawyer, Insurance Agent, and Home Inspection that yielded a seamless closing within 20days of submitting an offer on a property that had 4 other offers. That ability for a rapid and low risk closing is what made my offer then selected option. Ron & David were ALWAYS very responsive, and made sure to fully answer or get the answers to the items I asked. They best part is they worked as a team so there was ALWAYS continuity in expedited action and delivery. Thank You Pickard RE/MAX Suburban!!!

When we finally decided to start the home buying process, having little idea what we were doing, we found Matt and we couldn't have been more impressed. He's a serious professional whose wealth of local knowledge and experience speaks for itself. Matt is super approachable, and we never felt pressured or rushed into a decision during the entirety of our time working with him. My wife and I were genuinely surprised by his availability and there were multiple times were Matt reshuffled his calendar to accommodate us. It felt like he was always going the extra mile, which went a long way in reducing our anxiety. When we closed on our brand new home a few days ago, my wife told Matt that he'd be our first phone call should we ever decide to move again. We can't recommend him enough!

With how crazy the real estate market is, especially in the North Shore, it really goes a long way…read moreto have an excellent realtor. Susan was beyond exceptional. We were so fortunate to have first met her while wandering through one of her warmly staged open houses. While most seller's agents we met at open houses tended to stay disengaged, Susan was welcoming and clearly was there to advocate for her client. Even though we didn't go with her open house listing, the true reward was getting connected to her for the rest of our new home search. While some realtors are just there to open the door and send you automated listings, Susan blew us away with her vigilant and thoughtful procurement of potential homes. When seemingly perfect listings popped up, we'd quickly hop onto our email to ask Susan for a showing only to find an email already in our inbox from her asking if we'd be free later that afternoon to see that exact listing. With each potential home, we were greeted by her kind smile and thorough data on not only the home but also the neighborhood and market. Her local roots and connections to the North Shore gave us the confidence in understanding and making the decisions needed to submit offers in an area where homes were receiving 10+ offers, tens of thousands over listing price. Susan provided constant communication and support. We never felt pressured, uncomfortable, or alone while working with her. I honestly have no idea how she has so little reviews online and feel like we really lucked out to have gotten her as our agent before more people catch onto the exceptional quality and service she delivers. If you're in the market for a home in the North Shore, you need to at least give her a call to experience what an exceptional realtor truly looks like. Oh... and she helped us close on our new home at the price point we had hoped for. Exceptional quality, service, and results - yes, she's that good.
