This review is for Stephen Johansen (Realtor): I've had the pleasure of working with Stephen as my realtor for the past four years, and I can't say enough positive things about him. As a landlord managing a condo, Stephen has helped me lease my unit to three different tenants over the years, each time flawlessly. His professionalism, attention to detail, and ability to move quickly ensured that my condo was never vacant for long, which helped me minimize losses. One of the most remarkable situations was when a tenant unexpectedly broke their lease while I was out of town dealing with a stressful life event. Stephen stepped in and handled everything from inspections and project-managing a refurbishment to finding a new tenant--all without me having to lift a finger. His ability to manage this process so smoothly while I was dealing with another stressor was nothing short of a lifesaver. He took all the weight off my shoulders and ensured a seamless transition with the new tenant moving in quickly. Stephen has also been invaluable to my extended family, who are immigrant grass-root landlords and speak very little English. He has been able to communicate and collaborate with them effortlessly, which speaks to his excellent interpersonal skills and adaptability. Stephen has earned my family's full trust over the years, and I am confident he will continue to do so in any future collaborations. His expertise in the Cambridge, Boston, and Greater Boston markets is second to none. Not only has he consistently delivered for me, but he has also supported my family with their rental and buying/selling needs for a handful of properties. He's always proactive, communicative, and has a strong sense of integrity. I truly believe Stephen deserves recognition for his tireless dedication, professionalism, and ability to build trust with his clients. If you're looking for a realtor who will go above and beyond, Stephen Johansen is the one you want in your corner. I look forward to working with him again in the future! read more

This review is specifically for Pete Guiney. We were the buyers for a home that he was the listing agent for. While Pete did not represent us, he was extremely difficult to work with and made the buying experience stressful for us. We were out of state buyers navigating the logistics and complications of selling and buying a home at the same time. Pete's demeanor was extremely transactional, putting the people element last and was very eager to close the sale by the end of the quarter deadline. He was also challenging for our buying agent to work with and used a lot of passive aggressive tone in his responses. We have used Compass many times in the past for both buying and selling, and this is not the level of care we would have expected to encounter from a Compass agent. To make matters even worse, we felt like Pete was dishonest throughout the process saying whatever needed to be said to close the deal. In the home inspection, there was clear evidence of water staining in the basement with identifiable cracks. Pete kept denying the presence of any water saying that the seller had not observed this at all, yet there was clear photographic evidence of water marks and staining in the inspection report. The seller did agree to repair the cracks using a recommendation and friend of Pete's. Fast forward to the present where we have now closed and moved into the house. To no surprise - we found a leak in the basement and water coming out of one of the cracks (see photo) during a heavy rainfall. We felt completely lied to and the work recommended by Pete was not done adequately (there is no warranty either for the sealing). As of present, Pete has been ignoring our agent's messages. This situation really reflects on Pete's character as an agent having zero regard for the people who buy the homes that he lists. For this reason alone, I do not recommend The Denman Group. read more

If you've ever bought or sold a home, you already know that everyone seems to know a "realtor" who can help. I've purchased and sold several properties over the years and have worked with many agents and brokers, on both the buying and selling side. But I have never experienced such a positive, seamless, and well-executed process as I did with Lynne Minchello (and her husband Don) at The Denman Group. They are not your typical realtor team. They operate with a modern, tech-forward, and highly coordinated approach that makes the entire process smooth, efficient, and stress-free. What they deliver is truly a white-glove service in an industry that often feels outdated. For example: the day before the open house, Don was outside mowing a small strip of grass along the sidewalk that the landscapers had missed. He was also holding a hockeystick planning to clear a fallen branch off the roof making sure every detail was perfect. That level of hands-on care is unheard of. And as we approached closing, usually a chaotic whirlwind, I braced myself for all the typical last-minute tasks: meter readings, smoke certificates, utility final bills, etc. None of that stress ever surfaced. Lynne and her team proactively handled everything from replacing smoke detectors, coordinating inspections, even driving to the water department herself to finalize the bill the day before closing. All I had to do was approve things periodically. It was that easy. Even with everything I've shared here, I still don't think I can fully express how exceptional these people and this team truly are. They are pioneers in their industry, and if you're buying or selling a home, you absolutely want them in your corner. I cannot recommend The Denman Group strongly enough. read more

We worked with Logan to buy our home. I've never worked with a better professional of any kind. Logan went so far above and beyond that they were in the stratosphere. We had a difficult transaction; our seller was neither competent nor cooperative. Logan essentially project managed the completion of the seller's work on our house and totally shielded us from an extremely unpleasant individual on the other side of the transaction. Our purchase could have been a complete nightmare, and it wasn't only because of Logan. Plus, the house appraised for WELL over what we paid for it. I can't recommend them highly enough. The rest of their team also walked us through the transaction professionally and with kindness. read more

Holden and Eirinn are a dynamic duo who know the market to a tee and will guide you through the homebuying process from A to Z. They are great to work with- kind, quickly responsive, knowledgeable about both the housing market as well as about home renovations and repairs, and pros at negotiation and helping to craft a great offer. We were new to the homebuying process and they were invaluable in helping us to navigate this, especially in the competitive greater Boston region. 10/10 recommend! read more

Logan Jacobs was recommended to us by a friend. We were in the baby steps of learning how to purchase a home and decided to work with Logan. Upon meeting them, they were friendly, professional, knowledgeable, engaging, and dedicated to helping us in our journey. The amount of time that Logan spent working with us was more than we could've asked for. Due to personal issues in the home-buying process where we had to pause for a bit, Logan still put in the effort and helped us find a short-term rental situation while we continued searching, which we greatly appreciated. Plenty of highs and lows occurred, and decisions were being changed throughout, but Logan was patient and accommodated us the entire time. While we were stressed about potentially never finding a home, they constantly reassured us that the right home would be available in due time, and they were more than right! Logan stuck with us for almost half a year and recently helped us secure our first home that we are in love with. As first-time home buyers, we scored very lucky with our first realtor who we were in great hands with. I don't think anyone else out there would've done what Logan did; we truly felt like they looked out for us and took care of things we were likely to miss. And we gained a great friend in the process! Go to Logan for all your home-buying needs and feel the same sense of accomplishment we did at the end of our journey!!! read more

I worked with Logan to buy my first home and had such a wonderful experience! They are clearly so passionate about helping first time homebuyers like me have the best homebuying experience possible. They were able to help me get an incredible condo utilizing the Cambridge HomeBridge program, which not all realtors are familiar with, and can be a more complicated process, so I am very grateful for Logan's knowledge and assistance! Logan was there for me every step of the way, whether I was feeling anxious, excited, or clueless, and they have made clear that they will continue to be there for me in the future to help me with other questions or things that may pop up, which I truly appreciate. They also helped make the process fun for me with their sense of humor and positive attitude. I knew the entire time that I was in good hands with Logan! Sal at The Denman Group was also a great help during the process, sending me clear outlines of the next steps and what I needed to do when. This really helped calm my anxiety about the process. Logan also connected me with a fabulous lender and attorney who I also had a great experience with! Overall, I had an incredibly positive experience, and would absolutely recommend Logan and The Denman Group to any buyers - particularly first time homebuyers & buyers looking to use affordable housing programs (like HomeBridge or income-restricted homes for sale). read more

We could not have been more fortunate to have Logan Jacobs recommended to us through a friend. My partner and I are first time home buyers, and the first time we met Logan over a coffee, Logan helped us understand the process, listened intently to our first-home "wish list" and made us feel totally comfortable. We never felt rushed, we never felt like we had to commit to anything we weren't comfortable with. We were so lucky to have Logan alongside us when we went to open houses, because they pointed certain things out and taught us to look for things we would never have known to look for. We successfully found our first home, with all the things we were looking for, thanks to Logan and their knowledge and persistence in finding the right fit and helping us through the process. I only have the best things to say about our experience, and would absolutely recommend Logan, and the Denman Group at Compass, to anyone looking to buy a home. read more

Todd and Mona did a great job selling our Somerville condo. Very organized and easy to work with. Their structured approach to preparing for listing, marketing, open houses, and offers meant we sold our condo for over asking in less than 3 months start to closing! read more

Alex, Faith, and the rest of their team were a dream to work with, helping us navigate a stressful condo purchase directly from the seller. Alex is knowledgeable, responsive, kind, and and went above and beyond in his communications with both us and the seller. He clearly laid out the steps of the homebuying process, helped us make informed decisions, and connected us to a great network of professionals along the way. We will recommend him to anyone who needs a realtor and will certainly plan on going back to him for any other real estate needs we have. He clearly loves his job and anyone who works with him is lucky to have such a great realtor on their side. read more

Working with Eirinn and Holden was so much better than I could have imagined. I felt very overwhelmed by the prospect of buying a home, but Eirinn and Holden were not only very knowledgeable, but also emotionally supportive as well. Whenever we had a question about the process, they were quick to respond over email or text and always offered to chat things through over the phone. We feel very lucky to have had them by our side through this process. read more

Todd and his team are absolutely phenomenal!  As first time home buyers, Todd patiently took us through each step of the process, ensuring we understood everything and even making it super fun!  Todd was also able to provide us with great insight in terms of home improvements; we knew that we didn't want to take too much on, and he was able to guide us in the right direction for our needs.  Todd's ability to negotiate in a respectful and pragmatic way with other realtors and associates makes him an incredible advocate.  We were also impressed by how well connected and respected he is the field. We could not recommend Todd and his team enough.  Thank you guys for everything! read more

The Denman Group - Exp Realty - Real Estate Agents Near Me - Cambridge, Massachusetts

I can't recommend Todd and his team highly enough. 1. They're super responsive. Every time we had a question about where we were in the process or what to expect, they had answers within minutes. They worked with our lender and all other parties to make sure the transaction happened quickly and smoothly. This made the entire homebuying process SO much less stressful than I had anticipated! 2. They're highly knowledgeable. Todd knew exactly which protections to build into each step of the process to make sure that we ended up in a good place, from setting a deadline for responding to our offer, to requiring a payout if radon levels were high. These were things I never would have thought of myself, even having bought a home before! Todd's advice was invaluable and made me feel confident and completely at ease as we evaluated the home we wanted, crafted a watertight offer, and proceeded through the purchasing process. 3. They're just lovely people to work with. Everyone on his team and within his network of recommended vendors is a genuine delight, and I would recommend them to my friends and family in a heartbeat. read more

Todd and his team are your ideal group to work with. They helped us to buy our dream house. Our initial meeting was very educational which was very important for us as first-time buyers so we didn't have any surprises throughout the process. Todd's market analysis helped our offer to win the others. He was very consistent with his approach to the seller's agent to ensure our offer was competitive. He made sure to collect our feedback about the house and maximum available budget to best tailor the offer to increase the chance of winning. If you need recommendation for inspection, attorney, Todd has the best suggestions! Overall, we couldn't ask for any better team read more

Todd and team did an absolutely incredible job helping us to sell our condo. From the moment we met with Todd, we knew he was who we wanted to work with and over the time we worked together he continually proved his worth. His knowledge and passion about real estate shone through immediately. Fast forward to closing and we wouldn't change a single thing about the decision. The results speak for themselves. The Denman Drapkin team is incredible. They're meticulously organized and clear communicators who know how to drive to a productive and positive outcome for everyone. There were very few surprises (if any) along the way, as time was taken to make sure we were educated and comfortable with every decision. From managing small renovations to landscaping to staging, Todd's team is A+. Every recommendation and decision made clearly impacted the outcome in a majorly positive way. Todd did an amazing job reading the tea leaves during an unprecedented and unpredictable time in the market. GREAT experience working with them and an INCREDIBLE outcome. He and his team know what they're doing. read more

This is our second time working with Todd Denman. He helped us purchase our first home in 2017 in Reading, MA, and this year he helped us to sell it! We love working with Todd, he is professional, insightful, diligent and a treat to work with. Todd is able to get the best value for his clients and it goes to Holden and Eirinn who work with him at Compass. To assist us with the purchase of our new home, Todd recommended us Holden and Eirinn his colleagues at Compass. We worked with Holden and Eirinn the summer of 2021 to find our new house in Watertown. It was a dream team to work with, both of them were super responsive, professional and were able to anticipate any potential questions about the house. The market research information provided by Holden was a top notch. It was a very pleasant experience and we would go back to them when the time come for us to purchase our next house. Highly recommend Denman Drapkin Group at Compass! read more

Lisa, Jenn and the entire Denman Drapkin team were amazing to work with on selling my home! They explained everything so I knew what was coming (but was never overwhelmed). They had great advice throughout the entire process and were extremely helpful getting the house ready for sale. They not only found painters, stagers and electricians to prep the house, but ran the whole show and made sure everything was done well. The process from offers to closing went smoothly, and we couldn't be happier with the end result. Great communicators, very organized and were so nice to work with. I can't imagine a better end to end selling experience than I got with Lisa, Jenn and Denman Drapkin. read more

Holden is fantastic, and we cannot recommend him (and Denman Drapkin Group teammates Debbie & Eirinn) highly enough. This was our first time buying a house and we could not have imagined a better process or outcome. The homebuying process in a market like Boston's is beyond stressful, but Holden was there for us with wisdom and advice at every step of the way. He is incredibly knowledgeable, responsive, and funny, all of which you need to get through the craziness of buying a house! He and the team supported us in every part of the process - from attending showings to preparing a competitive offer to selecting lawyers and contractors, and ultimately helped us find and purchase our dream home. The whole team went above and beyond, whether it was responding to texts on nights and weekends, re-visiting the same house multiple times, talking us through theoretical remodeling work, or checking in every few days on punchlist progress to keep things moving seamlessly. We feel very grateful to have had such a fantastic team to support us through the process and our only regret is that we no longer have an excuse to text Holden all the time :) We highly recommend him and the Denman Drapkin Group at Compass team to anyone looking for a great partner in the search for a home! Ellie & Jack read more

Had such a great experience working with Debbie! She helped me navigate the often stressful process of buying (my first) a home and was always solutions oriented and filled with positive energy. Have found my realtor in Boston! read more

Holden, Eirinn and the whole team at Denman Drapkin were fantastic to work with on buying our home and selling our condo. They are very knowledgeable, organized, prepared, and easy to communicate with. Holden and Eirinn had great advice throughout the process of looking at homes in the areas we were interested in, as well as when we were getting our condo ready to sell. They also had good connections to contractors, painters, inspectors, etc. which was really useful for us. We trusted them entirely and are very happy with the outcomes. We highly recommend! read more

We had a wonderful experience with Holden and Eirinn when buying our first house in MA! They made all the interactions with seller super smooth, and proactively negotiated all the punch list items to ensure timeliness and readiness for the closure. We knew we can communicate any concerns or questions to them directly, and they will take care of the rest. We highly recommend Denman Drapkin Group to everyone, and particularly Holden and Eirinn, as our trusted partners! We will be going back to them in the future as we consider more real estate purchases. read more

Navigating the Boston real estate market is a bit like going whitewater rafting; if you want to make it through class five rapids, you need an excellent guide with knowledge, experience, and adaptability. And there's no better person to navigate the wild waters of Boston's real estate market than Holden Lewis! We met Holden rather serendipitously, while gingerly dipping our toes into home-buying. Within minutes, he understood our aesthetic vision and offered a lot of great advice. Over the next few weeks, we visited a few homes together, discussing in great detail what we liked / didn't like about the house. With every home we saw, Holden taught us so much about the home buying process, and we soon felt comfortable enough to balance preferences around location, size, design, and price when looking at listings. When we saw homes we were interested in, Holden helped us understand what a competitive bid might look like, to temper expectations, particularly when factoring in for any needed (or desired) renovations. He also has exceptional relational capabilities, and this came in handy when preparing our bid, as he was able to gather additional information and help us adjust the bid accordingly. Holden also brought Eirinn in to help us with our search and bid, and with their support, we crafted a successful proposal, with many back-and-forths and close guidance on their part. Not only that, but he also helped guide us through the financing process, and even preparing for home renovations. Last week we closed on a beautiful home in Cambridge that we're happy to call our own, and we couldn't be more thrilled. Working with Holden, you'll be in safe hands, learn a lot, and have a great time while you're at it! read more

We worked with Alex Abramo and Faith Flaherty from Denman Drapkin Group as buyers' agents. I appreciated many things about them: 1. They were very responsive, answering questions and always quickly relaying any information that needed to go between us and the seller or the attorneys 2. They have great referrals to contractors, home inspectors, etc. - introduced us to top-notch people. 3. They provide helpful context for first-time homebuyers such as ourselves - helping us understand, for example, how much different types of work might cost or who to reach out to for a quote. 4. Most importantly of all, they didn't pressure us to buy - let's face it, a buyer's agent ultimately only gets paid on the day you buy, and I've heard that there are some out there that put a little pressure on you, but Alex and Faith were patient with us looking at various condos, and always advised us to wait for something that is a good fit for us. read more

We got to know Todd and his wonderful team through our upstairs neighbor. Todd had helped him sell the upstairs condo about a year and a half before we decided to list our place and we couldn't have been happier with how things turned out. He was super helpful in walking us through the process from start to finish. My wife and I really appreciated that he wasn't aggressive in putting pressure on us. He totally gave us the information we needed to make informed decisions and feel confident doing so. His knowledge of the local Somerville/Cambridge marketplace was amazing and it went a long way in getting us an offer that was over asking. His strategy for selling our property was very comprehensive and his entire team was a pleasure to deal with. They all went the extra mile in making the entire thing a success. read more

We worked with Mona at Denman Drapkin Group and she is the absolute best realtor we could have possibly found as first time home buyers! She is so knowledgeable on so many things from neighborhoods, expected competition, quality of appliances and build, and so much more. She had very reliable connections for every service we needed throughout the entire home buying process, gave us great advice on all the decisions we were making, and overall was so professional and communicative. Mona is kind and friendly, so we connected with her very easily. She made the entire home buying process a breeze and we trusted her through every step. We love Mona and would definitely work with her again in the future! read more

Todd and the whole Denman Property team are amazing. I have worked with Todd for three different purchases and sales. I first worked with Todd as a first-time home buyer back in 2016. I came into the process completely clueless and Todd patiently walked me through each step. Once I was ready to make an offer, he helped me ensure that despite 15 other offers, I was able to create the winning offer. This past spring, I worked with Todd to sell my parents' home who recently passed away. Todd was very sensitive to the situation. Additionally, my brother and I, while very close, have very different styles and we appreciated that he took the time to accommodate both of us. With his help, we were able to sell the home for higher than we anticipated. He first suggested some simple updates we could make to increase the appeal and value of the home. Originally, we were reluctant to do too much because we were stressed and didn't feel like we had time but once we learned that Todd would literally manage every step of the construction and staging AND that through compass we could get a loan for most of the work, we decided to move ahead with updates. Todd with help of his contractors and stager literally transformed their home! As a result, we ended up getting a handful of offers over asking and selling for 15% over asking price! Right after selling my parents' condo, I worked with Todd for a third time on purchasing a new single-family home. Just like the first time, I had to compete against ten other offers and Todd guided me through getting the winning offer. In both cases, I was not offering the most amount of money but with Todd's guidance I was able to create the most compelling offer for the sellers. Todd is amazing for so many reasons- he comes from a construction background and brings a wealth of expertise there. While both times I paid for an inspection or pre-inspection, Todd actually pointed out 95% of the things the inspectors found. In my new home, he is helping me think through which improvements I should make with a lens on both making it an even more ideal setting for day-to-day living and increasing home value. Additionally, he has a great network of contractors and stagers which was super helpful when selling a property. I always appreciated his willingness to ensure I got my dream home. I was honestly so ready to have a private backyard in the midst of the pandemic that I might have compromised earlier in the process but appreciated Todd's willingness to push me that we should still look and could find my dream home. Additionally, he is always willing to go above and beyond. For example, in passing I mentioned the water bill at my parent's condo was higher than expected so he stopped by to ensure there wasn't any running toilets or leaks. Or when I couldn't figure out how to deliver a check given some work-related obligations, he arranged for someone on his team to come pick it up and deliver it. Last but not least, Todd is very personable and relatable. He is always checking in on how I am doing personally and not just focused on where we are in the process of buying and selling. I am always confident that he has my best interest in mind. I highly encourage anyone looking to buy or sell to work with Denman Properties. read more

I worked with Todd first and then Alex. Both were very friendly, responsive, and knowledgeable. They never made me feel rushed in any way and made sure I loved the property I ended up with. I looked at properties in both Somerville and Cambridge. They knew a lot about the surrounding areas and were able to answer all my questions about specific properties. My final offer was attempting to outbid someone else and they were great at explaining how to make my offer stand out without overpaying. All in all, a pleasure to work with. read more

Okay - what can we say about Lisa. . . . We can't say enough wonderful things about Lisa and her team - they were exactly what was initially promised and we would recommend them to anyone selling their treasured home. Lisa is an amazing manager, salesperson and therapist - all wrapped up in one powerhouse of a woman. She is the consummate professional who intimately knows the markets she is selling in. She managed everything that needed to happen and when we were not able to resolve a concern - she stepped in and figured it all out. We had some ambivalence about leaving our home of 30+ years throughout this process and Lisa hung in there with us. She worked with us to find the right sale price, she recommended a fabulous real estate attorney, she helped us organize all the things that have to happen to sell a house, she helped us choose the right offer in the end, and she was always pleasant and always available. Her feathers were never ruffled when we disagreed on something but in the end she was usually right. (But don't tell her!) She guided us through a challenging process and kept most of the stress off of our plates which were already full with packing and moving. Lisa's reputation precedes her - she deserves the props that she has earned over the years of her work as a realtor. She was just what we had hoped for and happily in the end she got us a really good price on our beloved home too. read more

Dave Wood at Denman Drapkin Group was a pleasure to work with. I started planning the sale of my property 1.5 years ago when I was still living away from the Boston area. Despite the pandemic and numerous circumstance changes, Dave helped me every step of the way. From coordinating renovations to putting the property on the market to working through logistics for closing, Dave was communicative and helpful. I'm grateful for Dave's help in answering questions and getting things done. read more

As first time home buyers, we could not have asked for a better person to help us find our home than Todd. We were completely new to the process and the lingo and through every step he was informative, clear and patient with us. He took the time and energy to get to know us and understand exactly what we were looking for in a home. At no point did we feel rushed and we always felt like Todd knew exactly where in the process we needed to be. We are so grateful for his guidance and for the diligent work of his entire team. We highly recommend Denman Properties at Compass! read more

Todd and his team were amazing as we navigated our experience as first time home buyers. Todd set up an initial educational meeting that helped us better understand the competitive Cambridge/Somerville market and what we should expect from the process. It really set us at ease. Then, when we were looking at open houses and making offers, we really benefited from Todd's experience with building construction and development. He was honest about his review of properties and got to know us well enough to provide relevant advice. When we finally got an offer accepted, Todd's network and team made all of the moving parts and closing paperwork seamless and as hassle-free as possible. We highly recommend working with Todd Denman and his team! read more

We had a great experience working with Todd as we were looking for our new home. He was very patient as we navigated a very competive market as buyers. His knowledge of the properties and various situations that we encountered was invaluable. Todd took the time to go see each property. He was very communicative and reliably available via text/phone. He helped us process our priorities and set appropriate expectations relative to the current market. Todd has an extensive knowledge of building construction, and knows the greater Boston market very well. We highly recommend Todd Denman, and will definitely use his services again in the future! read more

We cannot recommend Todd highly enough! He took an overwhelming process and broke it down into digestible pieces. He takes an extremely educational approach and he always made sure that we understood every part of the process. He never once pressured us or pushed us out of our comfort zone and we completely trusted him and felt like he was looking out for our best interests. Todd brought many skills to the table along with many fantastic team members and vendors, and we felt like we were in good hands every single step of the way. From his detailed market analysis to the smooth pipeline that his office provided with lots of check lists so we could keep track of everything, even when home buying feels scary and unpredictable, the process felt smooth. read more

Denman Properties will have your back through the whole home-buying process, which can often be stressful since there are so many people and steps involved. Todd's expert advice, patience, and people skills are what really made the difference in helping us find our new home north of the city. In our particular situation, we were under a time crunch and were still able to close in under 6 weeks and negotiate key items in our favor. He was always very responsive to our questions and showed a level of thoughtfulness that we've never seen in any other real estate agent. In addition, he also connected us with a competent team in his network and used the latest tech/apps to help keep us on track. We were so happy that we worked with Todd and would highly recommend him to anyone looking for a new home in Metro Boston. read more

We had a great experience working with Todd and his team! As first time home buyers, we were unsure of how the process would go, but during our first meeting with him, he took the time to walk us through the timeline and what every step would look like. When we started looking at homes, he understood what we were looking for, and we trusted and valued his opinion. Throughout the whole process, especially with the added stress of buying during a global pandemic, Todd was always available to text or talk on the phone about whatever questions or concerns we had. We ended up buying a new construction home, which came with its own challenges, but Todd really advocated for us (even after we had closed). We really appreciate the time he took to ensure a smooth process. We enjoyed working with him and his team and highly recommend them to anyone! read more

What can I say that will speak to what Todd does? He's helped me purchase 2 places and sell one. Through all transactions Todd has been responsive (my main gripe), professional and most of all understanding. While not everything goes as planned Todd totally rolls with each barrier that comes his way and seamlessly handles it. I would not go to any other agent in the city to purchase or sell. I value his expertise and know that with every transaction processed he will put our best food forward. Thank you Todd for all your help! You really are the best! read more

Todd is awesome to work with if you're looking for real estate. Great at setting expectations, easy communication, and goes out of his way to make the process as smooth as possible. His recommendations and references during the process proves invaluable. He will go to bat for you to get the best deal. Lastly, he's just a great guy and enjoyable to be around. I have limited experience with Real Estate Agents but I would definitely work with Todd again. read more

Todd and the Santana Properties Team did an excellent job with our Somerville condo sale. They were very responsive and professional throughout the process. They have excellent knowledge and connections as they are very active in the local real estate market. Would give them my strongest recommendation! read more

I was fortunate to work with Alex at Denman recently when he helped us to buy our condo. Alex made sure I didn't miss the chance to put in the offer as I needed a little more time, and negotiated favorable purchase terms in the agreement. Alex has a great deal of knowledge of the market and of real estate. He was able to give me insights into the benefits and possible drawbacks of the properties we saw very quickly, so I felt I was making a well informed decision. Denman has a great team and Hannah sent clear and detailed information throughout so that I knew what was happening and when, and was well prepared. Alex is a pleasure to work with and is always professional, good natured and calm. Thanks to him and the team, we are very happy with our new home. read more

Todd and the Santana Team recently helped us sell our Somerville condo. We really can't say enough about how wonderful the team was during this process; they're very organized, responsive, and experienced. Todd's team clearly has this down to a science. They provided a very clear timeline of events through closing, and matched it completely. We took all of Todd's strategy recommendations during sale prep and the listing process, and it definitely paid off. We highly recommend Todd and the team, and won't hesitate to call him for future real estate transactions. read more
