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.

Working with Caroline was so great that I hired her again this year to sell that condo and to buy a house in Marlborough. Caroline treats her clients like family and has a vested interest in the outcome of her sales. I appreciate her honesty and frankness when looking at properties - she will be honest if she doesn't think a place is worth the investment. She made a very complicated and stressful process as easy as possible and worked very hard to make sure that I got exactly what I wanted. Caroline is the antithesis of a typical agent: honest, fair and hard-working! No need to waste time considering other agents - Caroline is simply the best!

I should start off by saying that this review is long, LONG, overdue...renos take longer than…read moreexpected--sorry, Heather! With Heather's help, I purchased my first-ever property in January 2018. A condo in Waltham. The way we found out about Heather is actually a little funny... I was working with someone who I didn't seem to connect with, and started a new search for local realtors. My search led me exactly here, to Yelp, where I read so many great things about her. Getting in touch with her was very simple, and we clicked right away. For just about two years, Heather took me and my girlfriend to countless properties all over the metro-west, each time offering her honesty and expertise. Apart from selling properties, she also knows how to fix them up!--She is a jack of all trades. What started off as a very long list of must-haves slowly but surely boiled down to essentials...It's pretty funny now. But Heather was so accommodating, so patient, and always made her best effort at making sure we were getting into something that we would be happy with in the long-run. She never made a fuss about working around our work schedules, no matter how early or late.....or if we were in the midst of a nor'easter! She's always easy to reach by phone, text, or email. We never ever felt rushed or pressured. Heather's fun and easy-going attitude made a world of difference during such a complicated and long process. She became more than our realtor; she became a family friend. We are so glad to have met her. I'm confident that any one who works with her will feel exactly the same way, and we are very much looking forward to working with her again in the future. We love you, Heather. Thank you so much for everything. Sam and Krystal

Heather Heather Heather...What can i say about her…read more As a born and raised New Yorker, I accepted a job in the greater Boston area in Q4 2016. I began my new job in October. As part of the job offer, I received a relocation package where they connected me to Heather. Reading up on her website, she is known to be a relocation specialist. She is a specialist. She knows her ins and outs of houses/condos. She knows whats to look for. We connected early on, and I told her what I was looking for, price range, location, etc... and then she went to work. Once I got in the area, she took time out of her busy schedule to show me around the neighborhoods of Somerville, Brighton, Arlington, Watertown, Belmont. She is very knowledgeable of the greater Boston are. She knows which markets are hot and which are probably hard to re-sell if i ever plan to move on to a bigger place. Looking for a 2BR condo, we saw a slew of places. However, when I accepted an offer in NY on my property, she worked even harder to find me places for me. Finally I was connected a beautiful newly renovated condo in Watertown. Heather worked for me and was able to get an accepted offer within my price range. She worked hard on the P&S agreement and connected me with a real estate attorney in the area that she trusts. Unfortunately, the process of selling my NY coop and purchasing the condo in MA took much longer than anticipated due to my NY sale (another story), Heather did her best to console the MA seller that I am close and that I am eager to buy and I am willing to do whatever it takes. Eventually everything panned out. Heather gave me an awesome gift when she handed me the keys. She even showed up to my closing! It just shows how much she cares for her clients. I feel that she goes above and beyond to make her clients at ease. I was stressed out a lot because of the delays, and she kept on reaching out to me to reassure me. She was really helpful during the hard times. Finally closed this past Monday and moved in on Tuesday. She still helps me out when I ask for it - connecting me to the right people that she trusts. Oh I can continue to go on and talk about our trips to see different homes/areas but then this review will become a book. Let's just say that Heather kept me engaged and on my toes throughout the whole process. It was a joy, pleasure, and honor to work with her. I am so glad that my relocation specialist connected me with her. I recommend her to anyone who is looking for a place in the greater Boston area!

She guided us through every step of the home-buying process with care, clarity, and unwavering positivity. Simply put, she was amazing.

Mike is one of those realtors that takes the time to sit down with you to listen to your needs, and to educate you about the home buying process. He also spent countless weeks with us driving to different locations around Massachusetts, and touring homes with us. Mike is personable, knowledgeable, and a great sense of humor, which goes a long way when you've gone to a lot of open houses! Another awesome thing is that Mike has assembled an amazing team of home buying support experts, including mortgage lenders, lawyers, insurance agents, etc, which is a huge relief and takes a lot of stress off your shoulders. I'm absolutely sure that you should choose Mike and his team to buy your home, I can't say enough about how happy we've been since we've settled into our new home.

We would definitely recommend Melanie and her team to help you find your perfect house. We had an…read morealmost a year-long, arduous and sometimes stressful, house search during this continuing pandemic. But  Melanie and Bryan kept us on our toes, with their bright smiles and perseverance. Now that we have our own house, we are so grateful for their patience and are thankful to have had Melanie and her team on our side to guide us through. For a detailed review please see below... We selected Melanie based on her stellar online reviews and our initial conversation with her. As we started visiting properties we very quickly realized that we were actually getting a 2-person team. Melanie has a gem of a colleague, Bryan, who would visit each of the properties with us. Bryan, who has 30+ years of experience, is very patient and took the time to explain the nuts and bolts of a house to us novice first time buyers. Over time we realized that we were getting the best of both Melanie and Bryan. Bryan was great at retrieving all pertinent details (including floor plans), understanding what our needs were and was able to tell if the plans would fit our needs and help us navigate each property visit. Melanie was great at listening to what we felt/thought about each property and guiding us thoughtfully as we wrestled with our decision to move forward with one property or not. After learning what we were looking for, in houses, and also learning our deal breakers, they were both able to use that to guide us throughout the process of buying. Furthermore, Melanie was adept at negotiating with the seller's agent and advising us of what to expect in terms of prices and competition. As our house hunting stretched on for months during stressful pandemic times, Melanie and Bryan were indefatigable, never losing hope or patience and were great in guiding us through each offer/negotiation. We never felt pressured into making an offer we didn't like or paying more than we thought couldn't afford or felt was not right. In fact after almost 100+ property visits, a smiling Bryan met us at each property and approached each property with unbridled enthusiasm which really helped us in the stressful search during pandemic times. Likewise, Melanie approached each offer with equal enthusiasm and was always available to talk to. She even managed to check and be on top of negotiations even during her important life events which we really appreciated. We never felt rushed to buy nor put an offer that we were not ready for. Even after each rejected house offer, Melanie and Bryan were able to give us hope that we would find our perfect home. Finally, Melanie has a wonderful network of home inspectors, real estate lawyers, bank closing agents, admins etc. who came in very handy after our offer was accepted and made the closing process quite smooth. In fact, she has made herself available for guidance/discussions even after we have moved into our recently bought property. Overall, we would highly recommend Melanie and her team. She takes the time to know her clients needs and desires and guides them thoughtfully to make the best decisions. In future, when we are looking for a real estate agent to buy/sell we will reach out to Melanie and team first.

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.

From the initial consultation to the final closing, Brad and Darleen demonstrated unparalleled professionalism, expertise, and dedication.

Their extensive knowledge of the local market was evident as they provided valuable insights and guidance throughout the entire process. They patiently answered all my questions, alleviating any concerns and ensuring I felt informed and confident every step of the way. What truly sets Team Pratt apart is their unwavering commitment to their clients and the construction experience that Brad brings to the table. Brad takes good time to walk through every detail of the house during the showings. He pretty much finishes most of the inspection to be honest. Their proactive communication and attention to detail were remarkable, ensuring that no detail was overlooked and that all deadlines were met seamlessly. Beyond their professionalism, Brad and Darleen's genuine care and empathy were truly appreciated. They understood the emotional significance of buying a home and provided invaluable support and reassurance during what can often be a stressful process. Their warmth and approachability made us feel like more than just a client but rather a valued partner in achieving our homeownership dreams. I cannot recommend them highly enough to anyone in search of a real estate agent who combines unparalleled professionalism with genuine care and dedication.
