We recently purchased a fantastic loft condo in downtown Lowell with the help of Christine Metros…read moreNatale (Homes by Christine) as our realtor. We were incredibly lucky to find someone like Christine who knows the area well and understands the market. We knew little about the Lowell area and could have easily bought in an unsafe area or overpaid if it wasn't for her honest and sound advice. She has decades of experience in the area and has won awards and we can see why! When we started looking there were not many loft condos on the market in downtown Lowell. But whenever a new property came on the market she made herself available to show it right away. Christine helped us find a great property which met all of our requirements and addressed our safety concerns. She had the knowledge and experience to handle all aspects of the negotiation. She was always accessible and kept us updated on what was happening. She spent a great deal of time helping us find the right condo for our needs and then facilitated the deal. She even found us a great month to month apartment rental to bridge the gap while waiting for the closing. The property was perfect for our needs but was a short sale and it turned out to be an especially difficult one. It was only because of Christine's expertise and perseverance that the deal finally went through. The sellers realtor was pretty clueless about how to do a short sale but Christine is truly an expert at this and continually followed through with the banks until they finally gave the approval. Christine knew how perfect this condo was for our situation and I believe that she genuinely cared that we got it; she didn't give up on the deal even though the short sale approval took months longer than expected and continued to take up her time on an almost daily basis, as she handled all the negotiations herself. I feel strongly that this difficult short sale would not have been successful if a less experienced, less tenacious realtor was handling it. I highly recommend Christine from Homes by Christine if you're looking for an expert realtor with integrity!

Rich Rosa was fantastic. My wife and I were searching for a north-of-Boston home while living on…read morethe West Coast and Rich made the process SO much easier. 1) Great communicator with excellent attention to detail 2) Great at anticipating questions and getting you in touch with good professionals for different parts of process (home inspectors, RE lawyers etc) and helping you find a good one. 3) Great at raising questions that a home listing won't tell you (what is the home near/not near? busy street?) 4) He's not just firing his own ideas at you, he listens and works with what YOU want. 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!

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.

How great is it when you not only like your real estate agent, but he is a true professional as well, always looking out for what was best for us. Mike helped us negotiate a great price for our new home in Los Angeles (seller's market) as well as making sure we got top dollar for the home we were selling. We chose Mike because he was brought in to take over a Redfin listing near us which hadn't sold after stalling for months. Mike sold it in a week. Once we saw how efficient and effective Mike is, we knew he was the agent for us. It's been a pleasure through and through, and since Mike and his wife had a baby during our listing, we feel like he's part of our family. If you are looking for a stellar realtor, look no further, Mike is your guy!
