He was very attentive, personable, and took the time to carefully listen to what I needed, and then suggested a few units - he was right on. It was everything I wanted. I really felt like he took the time to really listen and shared his knowledge of the different available options. I had reached out a bit early and as soon as units became available, he took the initiative to follow up with me to schedule a time. It was a wonderful experience and I highly recommend him if you're looking for your next home! You want someone who cares, is knowledgeable and has your best interest in mind.

Very very pushy habits, I experienced such a Hostile experience with this agency- very shady very sketchy, as I'm prepared to launch an ethics code with board of realtors against these dishonorable company! From day one, they pushed and pressured my Agent to obtain keys *****earlier to avoid obtaining prior****** to the Long holiday weekend The priority shifted to convenience on behalf of the NEW prospective tenants, vs the existent occupants- and the landlord needs The focus was to Get Keys as Promptly as possible, BY pass any essential details in between in a very highly dysfunctional approach Laurent Had a Nerve to ASK for the *****Commission check PRIOR to even having his clients move in***** He figured to obtain keys fast, and get Paid RAPIDLY prior to the 1st of September which he knows is (((((Prohibitive and also UN lawful)))) Above all, he was aggressive on the phone when I informed him, his boss would be briefed on the subject matter and valid warranted feedback would be posted on Google, Yelp and Zillow Laurent created a NIGHTMARE experience to the old occupants, and to my broker who had an awful experience with Laurent as well

I would highly recommend Melanie to anyone looking for a realtor in the Boston area! 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.

Melanie is the best and was truly the best resource for my husband and I when navigating the ins…read moreand outs of purchasing our home, especially as first-time homebuyers! 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!

They sold me my house 2.5 years ago in Hull and for the last year or more I have been trying to get…read moreremoved from their mailing list. I regularly get large post cards, catalogs, and cultural event mailings from them. Every time I've contacted them I've been told it would be taken care of. The gal even agreed with me that it was unacceptable for me to have to go through all this. I must have sent a total or 6 or 7 emails complaining about this. For my last complaint I was given a number to call. Really? You're really going to make me go through this just to get my name off your list which I never gave permission for to start with? One time I was told I had been removed from the sales list but somehow was still on the cultural list, yet I continued to get mailings for both. I even very honestly told them I would leave reviews if they didn't stop the mailings. Guess what? Two days ago I received yet ANOTHER mailing about a house they sold. If a company repeatedly violates the federal 'do not call' list they can be fined, but I guess there's no recourse for abusing mailing lists except to exercise my first amendment rights and post reviews. I cannot comment on their real estate skills, but they either could care less about driving people mad with their mailings, or they have no idea how to control their own mailing list. Either answer is unacceptable.

Because of his thorough evaluation, I ended up passing on a property that would have needed a lot of work, this was all revealed during his inspection.

Ken Ray from Kensa is the consummate experienced professional. He exudes respect for his customers,…read morealong with confidence, charm, honesty, and extensive intelligence. His explanations are clear, concise, and easily understood. He's quick to apply his knowledge of home construction to the job at hand, which is to inform the buyer of the condition of the house being considered for purchase. No time is wasted. Questions are answered in detail. Following Kensa's home inspection, my real estate agent and I used Kensa's website to examine Ken's report together. After a long discussion, my agent was able to use Kensa's website tools to share with the seller's agent those portions of the inspection report labelled Deficient. The home inspection results served as evidence that some of the repairs any buyer of this house faces are serious and potentially expensive. Other recommended repairs are less expensive, but I'm convinced now that my original offer was too high. Consequently, I lowered my offer and feel that I had good reason to do so.

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!
