Frank provided us with several options , placing it on market or selling to him as a broker. We chose the latter and we're able to move sooner without the hassle of open houses .

5 stars are insufficient to convey Donnie Bennet's true worth. My experience with him as my realtor…read moredeserves a rating beyond measure. I cannot find the words to describe his incredible work selling my house under immense pressure. Donnie handled such a challenging situation with the such professionalism and expertise. His determination was inspiring...the way he navigated the market so skillfully was mind blowing...he kept me informed every step of the way...his willingness to listen and answer all my questions with patience was invaluable. Donnie was my savior as he performed a near-miraculous service and secured a sale that saved my home from foreclosure. I am so grateful for him and would recommend him without hesitation!!!

Donnie immediately made it apparent that he was informed, experienced, and an honest person that would work for us and our best interests.

I would recommend Donnie and the team to anyone looking to buy or sell a home; you won't find anyone better.

When making the decision to pursue one of the biggest purchases of our lifetime, my husband and I…read morewere very diligent to find an agent who was knowledgeable, professional, patient, and worked with genuine integrity. In Sandra Sousa, we not only found those wonderful qualities but so much more! After I was referred to her, I knew she'd be "the one" when she returned my call during her vacation in Florida. She took the time to REALLY listen to our wishlist and provided us with the tools for a successful house hunt. She gave us great advice during our search and answered every question we had with sincerity and professionalism. When we finally found the house we'd call our own, Sandra became a home "inspector" of sorts even before we hired the actual home inspector! She looked over everything to ensure we would get our monies worth! That is the type of person you want on your team. I could go on, but I think you get my point. Look no further. If you want quality service, you'll find it here.

My wife and I recently had the pleasure of working with Kate to purchase our dream home. From start…read moreto finish, it was an absolute pleasure! From our initial conversations and throughout the whole process, Kate was professional and highly knowledgeable about the local market and made sure I always felt like a priority. Kate went out of her way to ensure every detail was taken care of - from researching potential issues with the property to offering suggested vendors and contractors for future projects, Kate really thought of it all. As first time homebuyers with lots of anxiety, we truly couldn't have done it without her!

My husband and I loved working with Marc and the entire team at Barrows Team Realty. We are out of…read morestate and kind of out of the blue wanted to see a house that had just been listed. Marc was out of town but immediately put us in touch with Lou to chat. Lou and Kim were able to make it out to the house the following day to do a video tour with us. Lou helped us with the negotiation and advised us on how to make our offer the most competitive. We were up against other buyers and thankfully won out thanks to Lou's expertise. Once Marc was back in town he took over and our texts and calls to him never went unanswered, he always made himself available to answer questions day, night, and over the weekend. Jordan from their office was also a huge help in getting all the more random info we needed for homeowners insurance. He also always responded same day! Since they work as a team the customer service was really unparalleled, someone was always there to help! We closed on the house and since we are not local quite yet Marc is heading back over to help us with something since we are out of town. We are currently working with Marc on the seller's side of things as well. Truly five star service before, during, and after the homebuying process! Highly recommend working with Marc, Lou, Kim, and Jordan. They are a wonderful team!

Benjamin Frink with Badger Realty was a life saver not just once, but twice. I went to Ben after…read moreseeing one realtor who was very unresponsive and just didn't understand what I/we were looking for. I know I didn't make it easy for Ben either. I had him show me/us at least 30+ houses between MA, CT and RI. He helped my husband (at the time) and I buy our first home together in 2016, then later down the road when life happens and things don't work out, he then also helped us sell our home in 2018. Ben made what can be a very stressful process seem so seamless. We all had a few meals together, went on motorcycle rides and spent time together while Ben went out of his way to get to know us and what exactly we were looking for. To speak even more highly, the first time home we bought was in Connecticut where the agency was not yet licensed. Ben went out of his way to have his broker get licensed there just for us, and spent more time getting to know the area just for us as well. Ben made the experience quite incredible, and I'd be thrilled to use him again and refer him to anyone!

I was with Badger Realty for 12 years. I had rental property in Pawtucket, not living there and…read morecommuting from Boston was a hardship I found Badger Realty and Jason Badger managed my properties during all that time providing all the services that I needed at a very reasonable price, bringing in new tenants resolving issues, collecting rents and putting up with complaints which was not part of the service, snow removal it really is "one call does it all" I can go on and on but I would not use anyone else , Jason is honest, dedicated to his clients and a real hard working person, most people say that the property management companies in RI are all the same I can tell you from my experience they are not! try Badger and you will see the difference immediately. Inessa is ahead of sales and helps Jason with all the other services, she's always there when you need it, she has great contacts for contractors or anything you may need, she found great tenants for my apartments, and like Jason honest hard working person that will take the time to listen to your issues and resolve them. When I sold one of my house I went with Badger , Inessa sold it the first day it went on the market for more than the asking price (and the seller's market was not that great), She followed through with all the paperwork and supported me all the way until it was finalized . I can assure everyone, people like this are hard to find I was lucky, I thank them for their service and excellence I hope who ever reads this may find the help and peace of mind they need like I did.

From my first call he was friendly and happy to answer my questions and share his expertise in a way I could understand. His responsiveness and ability to provide support on the drop off a dime on a holiday weekend were key in getting our offer accepted and then he got us locked into a fabulous rate. He was a dream to work with - even my realtor was impressed.

We hired Kelly (and I'm going to preface this with, we don't trust realtors to begin with because…read moreof their tactics) to sell our home. We told her the selling part was easy. It would be the finding a place to go in the interim, while my husband got back on track that would be the arduous part. She came over for that initial "interview", stated she had dealt with certain "orders" with neighbors, and that didn't bother her, that she would handle it. She was also informed I have OCD and severe anxiety, and that because of our neighbor and the leaseback, this was going to be a challenge. If she chose not to take it on, it was understood. She also understood as aforementioned above, knew that we needed a leaseback, and that other realtors prior, could sell the home, but then dropped the ball when it came to finding a place for us. She conveyed to us after that first meeting that she would find a place prior to even putting the home up for sale as she had such a network at Keller Williams Elite. She kept saying this, but yet as we saw with other realtors, she never had anything to lease. I also conveyed to her that I wanted her to watch individuals the best she could, as I have OCD and I don't like people sitting on my sofas, beds and moving my things around during a showing. She said she would be watching. I guess she forgot that we had video cameras which was listed on our listing by her, and it kept going off, as she was walking back and forth OUTSIDE the mudroom door, doing her own work. The camera takes video of the individual obviously when they're out there. We received so many notifications, because she never went in to watch anyone, except her own client who was older. So she lied there. She did keep us updated prior to close about how our attorney had an issue with the title company, that I had to call and fix myself, and she made sure contact was constant during closing, but after it was, forget about her helping out during the leaseback period. My husband usually is pretty calm with people, even if he knows they're playing him, and he lost it with her at one point. She said she was looking, but that's the excuse she always gave. We had to use another realtor my husband knew years ago that primarily only does rentals to help us. Kelly could careless whether you were in a hotel. It wasn't her life. The leaseback just ended, and as per usual, we got everything we needed to her asap, and we at day 3 of the new owner having keys, hadn't seen the money held in escrow for the leaseback, the oil refund, or the prorated days refunded. I had to speak to another attorney to get some help. She was just going with the fact the attorney for the buyer was busy, or out of the office, but it's ironic none of these individuals are busy or in meetings when it comes time to close, and get their own commission or payment. Her last correspondence to me was that she kept my husband updated about getting the money back owed to us. She has this issue with comprehending that you can tell my husband every day that you expect money from the closing attorney, but if you just say OK, and never pressure them in a way that demonstrates you aren't taking their excuses anymore, then contacting my husband informing him you are still waiting for checks to be cut isn't really helping. She also would pick and choose what she would actually respond to with both myself or my husband in emails. When all is said and done, she'll sell your home, but I'm going to be honest, it's not hard to do in this economy, however follow through after commission is paid out lacks, especially if you do a leaseback and are requiring her help finding another place to go. It's pretty sad we had to pay another realtor a finders fee, because the one who sold our home whom we trusted would find us a rental, in our opinion couldn't careless. Either she's too busy or doesn't care if you end up in a hotel -- or both, I wouldn't ever want to go through the stress I did with her and that transaction again.
