When it was time for my mom to move closer to family I arrived back in Boston to do a very fast…read moremove. I called five different major players in the local real estate arena with what I knew was a prime piece of property to list. Of those five messages that I left saying that I had seven days to pack, move,clean, list and sell my mothers home only one person from one office returned my phone call and that was Zehra. Her enthusiasm and knowledge as well as the ability to handle a very emotional seller was beyond exceptional. Being in the business myself I realized immediately that she was extraordinarily talented and effective. We discussed strategies and first and foremost she handled my mother with kid gloves. Needless to say in that amount of time, she had the house listed, helped me find reliable local people to empty it and get it ready for market. Needless to say by the end of that week when we flew out of Boston everything she promised had been done flawlessly. On top of that within a few days of landing home we had a signed contract 16% over asking price. Trust me Brad Hutchinson real Estate and Zehra Our five-star all the way , it's all in the results And I am forever grateful. P.S. As of this review I've still not gotten a return phone call back from any of the other major agencies

My home buying experience with Sharife was EXCEPTIONAL. I had been thinking about buying a home for…read morea while however the process seemed so daunting, and my anxiety was stopping me from taking any steps in that direction.... until one day I just sort of said "what would happen if I booked a tour on Zillow? I have nothing to lose", so that is what I did, and not even 10 minutes later, Sharife calls me to introduce himself and let me know that we were going to see a home that evening! I was terrified, I had no idea what to expect, and I was white knuckling the steering wheel all the way to the house from work. The moment I arrived at the house and Sharife stuck his head out and showed me where to park, my anxiety immediately started to go away. He walked me through the house, and we immediately developed a connection, and he began to know exactly what I wanted and didn't want in a house. As I was leaving that day, he let me know that we would be in contact later that night and would continue this journey together as he handed me a handwritten letter and a bag of treats. That night, as promised, Sharife called me, got an idea about what I wanted, and the next morning I began receiving MLS emails with properties to look at. Sharife helped me narrow it down, and I really felt safe with him. I felt like I had a big brother there with me the whole time, which was so comforting in a time that is so scary. The highlights of my days were speaking with him about the houses I was interested in or not interested in and viewing different homes and areas with him. He made the process so simple, sending me our schedules and explaining all the different nuances to me, as many times as it took me to understand. He connected me with a lender and a lawyer, and they all collaborated together so seamlessly and smoothly, I really could not have imagined this process going any smoother than it had. Sharife supported me and held my hand through every step of the way from the moment I pressed "Tour this property" on Zillow, until he walked me to my car after signing all of the papers on closing day. I highly recommend Sharife for all of your realty needs!

We have had our heating system malfunction multiple times, including the two coldest days of the year. My little girls were freezing and that was a not a pleasant situation to witness. Another fun fact is that my car was wrongfully towed from the garage one day. Although I must say that they did reimburse us for the towing and gave us gift cards. The process was still brutal because in order to get my car back, I had to skip a crucial day at work. The one good thing I must say, is the gentlemen who are in charge of maintenance. They are awesome guys who really care about their job. Unfortunately when it came to issues like the heating system there was only so much they could do. Conclusion? DONT WASTE YOUR HARD EARNED MONEY IN THIS PLACE.
