We could not have asked for a better realtor than Elizabeth! She was incredibly kind, patient, and…read moreattentive throughout our entire home search. She really listened to what we were looking for and never once pressured us toward a house that wasn't the right fit. Instead, she gave us thoughtful guidance and the occasional subtle nod when she thought a property might be a great match for us. She was also incredibly responsive and always willing to meet us for showings on short notice, which made such a difference in a competitive market. Elizabeth helped us find our dream home, coached us through every step of putting together an offer, and helped us land on a winning strategy that we still feel really proud of. She made what could have been an overwhelming process feel manageable and gave us confidence without ever taking the decision-making out of our hands. We are so grateful for her patience, expertise, and genuine care throughout the process and would recommend her to anyone looking to buy a home!

From start to finish, Elizabeth went above and beyond the call of duty and consistently demonstrated an incredible level of professionalism, warmth and attention to detail. Elizabeth stood out from other real estate agents after our initial meeting. She truly took the time to understand our needs, kept us informed throughout the entire process, and made herself available when we needed guidance or had questions. Elizabeth displayed a commitment to getting the best possible outcome for us was evident in everything she did. What impressed us most was how personally invested Elizabeth was in our success as a buyer and seller. She went the extra mile at every step and made a stressful process feel manageable. We have an infant, and her level of attention to finding us a suitable home for our family was clear. We are incredibly grateful for her hard work, expertise, and dedication.

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.

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. If I buy or sell a property, I will use Tatyana again. Tatyana work diligently on helping me find tenants for my investment property.

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.

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!

We got an offer accepted in April and closed in June. Rob was a very responsive and punctual agent. Scheduling open houses and private showings with Rob was very smooth, sometimes we went to a few properties in one day. Rob's feedback to properties were very honest and as first time home buyer's we would have missed those aspect if he had not mentioned it. There was a property with a major tilt and Rob pointed it out...it was making us dizzy. It was great having Rob to help answer our questions about the roof, the heater, water boiler, septic tank age and so much more. He would also provide comps of similar properties that sold recently in the area. Overall, we had a great experience with Robbie and would highly recommend him.

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!
