We were quickly contacted by Atiyeh Cassidy who presented as warm, personal and knowledgeable, without any pressure whatsoever. Throughout every stage of the process Atiyeh was ALWAYS available for support and guidance. Saying she was a pleasure to work with would be an understatement. There were many times where it felt like we were her only clients due to her dedication and commitment to our sale. She would usually stick around after visits or stay on the phone to get to know us better and reassure us every step of the way. I really can't say enough how much we appreciated her hard work and expertise. Had we not moved out of Massachusetts we would undoubtedly solicit her services for any future homesales or purchases. I cannot recommend Atiyeh and her team enough.

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!

We were 1st time home buyers and Bremis Realty was recommended by our bank... "Thank You" Leader Bank (who are also fantastic btw)! Being new to the waters of the realty market, one can get quite overwhelmed with open houses, home listers, agents, mortgage brokers and the thousand questions you'll have when looking for your home. Of course, this is expected, but when you have a team of professionals working for YOU the stress seems to diminish and the unfamiliar territory seems less perplexing. I mentioned "team" because that is exactly what they are. They work in concert with each other so effortlessly, constantly getting answers from one another while keeping you involved. In fact, Michael was ALWAYS available to us... Even outside of the conventional working timetable, often answering our crazy questions via texts/ email and any other platform one tends to use when communicating... In getting to know Michael we felt like more of a friend rather than a customer and that's a testament again to the Bremis Group. It felt great going into open houses with Michael because you have confidence in knowing you have an experienced and caring realtor who is focused on your needs and concerns and not just the sale! Then of course there is the bonus of getting to spend time with him as well. Once you meet him you'll love him. He was never overbearing or critical of our choices but was quick with sage counsel when solicited. When we found our home Michael and the Bremis team eased us through each step from offer to close with remarkable tact and a copious amount of positivity. Michael was exceptional in quelling our uneasiness during the bid offer (BTW - Michael got the seller to accept our initial offer price- and in this market, too). The jubilance my wife and I felt was matched directly by Michael's sheer joy of us getting our dream home. This just proves how passionate and caring he is along with the whole Bremis team. A thousand "THANK YOU'S!" to the BREMIS team... In conclusion, all I can say is do yourself a huge favor and use Bremis Realty!!! Buying or Selling a house is stressful enough so why not make the journey much more enjoyable by going with in mine and my wife's opinion the "BEST IN THE BUSINESS!"

I was looking for a house in Salem for 4 years. I toured countless houses, and tried working with a few realtors. Most of them would just pressure me to buy a house that I wasn't interested in. Then I linked up with Judie, and two months later she helped me find my dream house. She gave me a heads up before the house even hit the market. During the process of closing, anytime I didn't know something, she had the answer, and anytime I needed a contractor, she had someone who had a better price and quality than anyone I could find. Most importantly whenever there was a problem, she had a solution and took initiative. On top of that she is such an unbelievably pleasant person that you could discuss anything with. Buying a house can be stressful, but she made it such a smooth experience. Now she is helping me sell my condo, and as I am about to put it on the market she brings those same attributes, making the selling experience so much more manageable with a busy work schedule. To sum up, Judie *will* help you find your dream home (or sell it). With her experience, expertise, and connections she will make the process smooth. Most importantly her wonderfully kind personality will make you feel at ease knowing you're working with a master of the trade. Thank you Judie, you're the best!

Her legal knowledge shines through when it needs to, which saved tons of headaches! Judie was always available to help or just chat when I was nervous about the selling. She kept in contact throughout the process and the pandemic. She cares and knows her stuff! I could not recommend a better realtor. Judie's support and expertise are second to none!

I listed my two-family in Medford with The Shanahan Group over the summer. Christine Curtain met with me and carried me through a very stressful time. She was thorough and diligent. After agreeing on a listing price, she wrote the perfect listing, scheduled and managed an open house within just a couple of days, and professionally dealt with my tenants (both of whom were not happy about the sale of the property). She handled a difficult situation delicately. I had several offers at the end of two days on the market, and the house sold at over asking very shortly thereafter. I also met with Christine at several properties that I had expressed an interest in buying. She worked with my busy schedule and answered all of my questions promptly and honestly. After a legnthy search, I settled on a home on the north shore. I came across it on a drive while visiting a friend. I loved it so much and really wanted to see it and make a move quickly. Christine had planned a week's vacation the same week. I spoke with one of Christine's associates, June Burt, who stepped in without hesitation and walked me through the offer procedure and subsequently visited the property with me so I could get another look at it with a family member. Upon Christine's return, she haggled with the sellers on my behalf and saved me a chunk of money off of the sale price. I also thouroughly enjoyed the beautiful housewarming gift they sent to me - a patio heater. What a thoughful surprise!! I love my new home and couldn't be happier with the quality of service and attention I received from The Shanahan Group.

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!

My wife and I were first time homebuyers and bought our first home during the pandemic. I had emailed her asking for info about her approach and to get her insights on the current market.  She replied and without being pushy or forceful, answered my numerous questions in great detail.  She got us set up to get the MLS emails and we expressed interest in a house.  We were unable to tour it so what did Adriana do?  She traveled to the house herself and took a 20 minute video to give us an inch by inch detailed look at the property.  She did this for clients she had never worked with before and had never met before.  This jumped out at us as a true sign of an incomparable work ethic. "If she does something like this for a couple she doesn't even know, imagine what she'd do for us after working with us" was a thought my wife and I both had. Qualities one seeks in a realtor are communicative, supportive, friendly, strong, personable, knowledgeable and diligent.  Adriana has all of those traits in spades but she also possesses the rarest, most important trait of all...honesty.  Anyone working with a realtor needs someone who will be brutally honest and tell you the good and the bad, whether you want to hear it or not.  Adriana does this expertly well and, if something is bad, she also comes to the table with suggestions on how to navigate any issues. If we could give her more than 5 stars we would.  Our family is expanding and we are actually looking for our next home and, of course, are working with Adriana to find it. The prospect of buying, selling, moving and having a first child in an ongoing pandemic is daunting, but we know we are in excellent hands with Adriana and she has been instrumental in making so many of our family's dreams come true. She also has access to a massive network of professionals that are now our network and has allowed us to navigate homeownership with ease. She is clearly so very valued and respected by all of those she works with and interacts with. We have also personally referred several friends to her and they have been equally as pleased with her work as we have.  Adriana is the epitome of an expert realtor, professional and person and we cannot recommend her enough!
