She helped us find an amazing rental in Canton, and a couple years later our dream home in Sharon. Elizabeth listened to and understood our unique needs and preferences, sharing specific properties she thought we would like (and she was always right!). She was extremely patient and responsive as we took our time to find the right home for us, seeing so many places with us and never pushy or rushing us. She always acted in our best interest and is someone who not only knows the real value of a home, but can suss out the ins and outs of any property to an incredibly impressive level. She has incredible advice and also has amazing recommendations and connections to people who have made the whole home buying and moving process easier - from movers to contractors. Elizabeth made what can typically be an overwhelming and stressful process, very comfortable. I would highly recommend her to anyone looking for a realtor who will be in your corner.

She made the home buying process smooth and took a lot of work and stress off our shoulders. She's great at negotiating, which is extremely helpful for first time buyers. She gives you helpful advice during the process and communicates well with the seller's agent or the town in order to answer any questions you may have. Not only do we own our first house, but we got our dream home. Even after closing, she is extremely helpful and a great resource. We couldn't be happier with our experience working with her.

We had so many moments when we could've put in an offer, or we could've settled for less, but Melanie did not allow that to happen. With her expertise and her ability to just fully understand what we truly wanted, she was able to give us advice that was thoughtful and she would not let us settle for less than what we wanted! Even when we had questions or any concerns, Melanie was super responsive and made us feel like we were her only clients, even though we know this is far from true. She really helped guide us through the whole home buying process and made sure we felt 100% comfortable before moving forward in the process. She helped us get our offer accepted on a home where she could tell that we could really picture ourselves, and 4 months in, my husband and I couldn't be happier living in our new home!

I was…read moreexpecting the home buying process to be complicated and stressful, but Melanie was there through all of it, and I closed on my first home this week. She's responsive to questions, knowledgeable (and happy to share that knowledge), and reliable. Beyond that, she was easy to talk to, kind, and fun to be around. It can be difficult to place your trust in someone with a big milestone like purchasing a home. Melanie is definitely someone you can trust to make the process easier and more transparent.

Update: Tatyana proved herself a very savvy negotiator and skilled real estate agent again.

Brookline continues to be a sellers market where home buying is very competitive. After losing several bids to properties in Brookline, Tatyana found a seller who was selling their own property. She got us in before the property hit the market and the day before the property's first open house. Due to Tatyana's tenaciousness and diligence we were able to secure an acceptance to our offer.

Unlike many of the other 4-5 star reviews I've read, my roommates and I did not do our actual…read moreapartment hunt through Gateway. We used the various websites that aggregate listings and met with many agents that represented them. We had positive and negative experiences, but the place we ultimately decided was perfect for us was being shown by Hannah from Gateway, who was amazing throughout the rest of the process. Do NOT believe the 1 star review of Hannah below, and definitely DO give props to Paul for defending her, because after our experience with her, I have no doubt Paul's rendition is exactly what went down. After all of the places we looked at that did not live up to expectations, we were at the point that we could size up a place in minutes as to whether we wanted to take it a step further. So when we walked into the apartment with Hannah, she did not really need to sell us, we knew we wanted it. But thats where our experience really starts, she didn't kick back and wait for the fee, she worked for us from start to finish. Whether it was meeting up after my own work hours because I forgot to actually attach my application to an e-mail or working with the landlord to waive the security deposit, Hannah made every step easier. If we could, we would go back and start our search with Gateway, because then we probably would not have had to go through some of the headaches along the way. If you're looking for an apartment in the Boston area, start your search here.

They charge an $40 application fee per tenant - this is illegal in MA for landlords, but not for real estate agents, so they get away with it. Our agent admitted it's purely just a revenue generator for them - it also doesn't apply to your broker fee. 2. They ask for most of their fees via Venmo, which has to be the sketchiest way of sending any kind of transaction. 3. If you go in expecting to tour a single place, expect the agent to line up a bunch of other showings and pressure you into them. We ended up in an apartment with a dog, despite telling the broker we were looking for no-pet buildings due to a severe pet allergy.

Rich Rosa was fantastic.

If you're an engineer type like me, he'll give you a spreadsheet market analysis, if you are are more mood and feel, he will speak to that. 5) Great negotiator 6) Super punctual and responsive, we pulled off a 30-day closing window which wouldn't have been possible w/o Rich's professionalism I could go on. So glad we found him.

He was very thorough when looking at houses with us and pointed out things to look out for that we would have otherwise missed. He worked diligently on our behalf from the time we hired him as our agent through closing. In that time we saw quite a few houses and made several offers, but not once did we ever feel pressured by Rich - he very much works for his clients and is not at all pushy, which we sincerely appreciated! I would recommend Rich to anyone looking to buy a home in Greater Boston!

He took the time to truly understand what we were looking for, asked thoughtful questions, and offered insights we never would have considered on our own.

His knowledge of the market was impressive, and he helped us navigate everything from competitive offers to inspections to closing, with ease and confidence.

He was highly responsive, always available to answer our questions, and incredibly proactive in addressing any concerns that came up along the way. Mike was extremely patient and helpful during our search for a new house (covering many different towns), offering great insights and advice throughout. Once it came time to negotiate and prepare for the closings, we completely trusted him to get things done. Mike's professionalism, attention to detail, and commitment to our best interests truly stand out. It can be hard to find a real estate agent that you trust. We were fortunate to get introduced to Mike through a friend. We would highly recommend him to our family and friends now as well. He will go the extra mile for you!

My wife and I had the good fortune of stumbling upon Collin Bray at an open house for which he was…read morethe listing agent. We were early in our search for a first home and hadn't yet found a real estate agent to work with, but after meeting Collin we knew he was the right match. Straight from the get-go and throughout our entire home-buying adventure, Collin was warm, patient, supportive, informative, responsive, and approachable. He was the best possible guide and advocate we could have hoped for, explaining each step of the process so we'd know what to expect and when, providing well-informed insight when we were preparing to make offers or negotiations, and folding helpful questions into conversations with seller's agents, home inspectors, builders, and HVAC professionals, that we wouldn't have thought to ask. On top of all this, Collin was invaluable when it came to helping us make connections with other professionals we needed. Home insurance agent on short notice? Done. Amazing interior designer? Boom. Sharp-as-a-tack real estate attorney? Wish granted. Collaborating with Collin was such an enjoyable experience; he always had our backs and was ready to skillfully shepherd us through whatever unfolded. I can say with confidence that if Collin had been captain of the Titanic, it would have arrived in New York City ahead of schedule AND unscathed. Luckily for us (unluckily for them), he was born a bit too late for that and chose to navigate real estate deals instead of oceans. We truly cannot say enough positive things about working alongside Collin and are beyond grateful for the big role he played in putting us in our new home!
