Karen and Paula are the best around! We first worked with them a little less than 3 years ago, when…read morewe were looking to buy our first ever home in JP. As we drove around to different condos, Karen seemed to have a story for a house or two on pretty much every block we passed. She grew up in JP and it's clear that she has an incredible amount of knowledge about the area! It wasn't long before we found a condo that was perfect for us. Karen and Paula were so incredibly knowledgable and patient - answering all of our questions (and giving us a lot of great info before we even knew what to ask!) and guiding us through the process, making it much less stressful than home-buying had been rumored to be. We kept remarking that it really just felt like they were 100% on our team - it felt like they cared deeply that we got a place that was perfect for us, with no surprises to come afterward. In a hot market like JP, it'd be easy to slack a little bit, since many buyers would be happy just to get into a place, but these two are the furthest from slacking that you can get! Fast forward 2.5 yrs. We loved our place and planned to be there for several more years, but my business had grown, we had gotten a dog, and I had discovered a love for gardening, and my husband was dying to play and record music without worrying about potentially being rude to our sweet upstairs neighbors... all of which made us long for a single family home. We figured it would be several years down the road, but we started to go to open houses just to get an idea of what neighborhoods we'd be most interested when it got to that point. One day, we went to an open house in Roslindale and accidentally fell in love! I had NO hesitation when it came to who we would call about potentially selling our home and buying the new one - Karen and Paula. I was worried that, since we hadn't put our condo on the market yet, we might not have a chance to snag our dream home. I talked to Karen and Paula about it, and though they warned us that it was a bit of a long shot, they quickly identified something that made them think that the house might be slightly over-priced, meaning we might have time after all! They came over to our condo (which was pretty cluttered etc, since we weren't planning to sell for another year or two!) and gave us very thorough and detailed instructions on what to do to make it ready for a sale and to maximize the sale price. Again, they guided us through the whole crazy process (and my crazy anxiety about everything working out!) with patience and reassurance. We put our condo on the market the following weekend and after getting multiple offers, accepted an offer significantly over asking price that Monday. And we got our dream home for several thousand under asking! We still can't believe how good these two are at their job. We are SO grateful to have found them 3 years ago, and we're always recommending them to our friends who are looking to buy in the area. If you got this far, don't waste your time looking for anyone else - these two are the best in Boston hands down!

We had a fabulous experience working with realtor Neathery Brenzel of McCormack & Scanlan Real…read moreEstate in our search for a new home. We ultimately purchased a house in Jamaica Plain, but Neathery was knowledgeable about the Boston area generally and showed us homes in Cambridge / Somerville / Boston / Brookline and Charlestown. Neathery is a great listener and really paid attention to what we were looking for. She was also very insightful in helping my husband and I articulate some specific things we were looking for (but didn't even realize for ourselves) - and also to navigate the differences between what each of us had in mind. Neathery has an excellent communication style - always available, prompt responses, was great about keeping both my husband and I included in all communications and excellent about giving us a heads-up about the rare times she was unavailable. Neathery was also an invaluable resource during the purchase process itself. It is clear she has cultivated good professional relationships with all sorts of other realtors and brokers - and always had an insight or a way to reach out to the representative on the other side to get more information about what was going on behind the scenes or may have been motivating the sellers. After purchasing the house, Neathery has been an invaluable resource to connect us with "go-to" people in Jamaica Plain. Neathery knows everyone - designers, moving companies, tradespeople of all types, and all the fun spots in the area (which is new to us). We have really appreciated being able to reach out to Neathery with questions - and even now, months after completing the sale, she has made herself available to us with excellent advice and ideas. Thanks, Neathery, for an excellent experience! We really appreciate all your hard work. Neathery can be contacted at: 617-462-4628 or YourBostonAgent@gmail.com.

Deborah handled the social media pre-messaging, staging, photography, detailed offer sheet, marketing, and all aspects of showing the house - which isn't easy in the Covid era! She helped buying brokers understand what we were looking for, with great results. We got multiple offers and every offer was a quality offer - allowing us to pick the strongest one without worry! Deborah also chased the attorneys and took care of the fire inspection as well as the final gas and water readings. I really couldn't be happier with the service she provided, as well as the great results!

From our first meeting, Ruth provided guidance and support through every part of the process. During the house hunt, she listened carefully and offered thoughtful feedback and suggestions. She showed endless patience as we defined and redefined our needs and preferences. Moreover, she was a kind, optimistic, and reassuring presence during this time in our lives. We ultimately made an offer on a house in need of renovation, which presented unique hurdles in the closing process. I cannot overstate the role Ruth played in making sure that we secured this home for our family. During this period, we often communicated with her daily to ensure we were taking the right steps and staying on schedule. She helped us brainstorm through so many challenges and figure out what to do next, and she connected us with an excellent team of people at every turn. We were so invested in buying our home and she was there with us every step of the way. Without her, I'm not sure we would have closed at all, much less on time! Throughout the process of buying a home, Ruth's guidance, knowledge, and support were indispensable. As first time homebuyers, we could not have had a better experience. We have tremendous gratitude for all of her help. If we're ever in the market again, she'll be the first person we call. And if you have an opportunity to work with Ruth, take it! We can say with total confidence that she is someone you want on your team.

Judy is the best realtor we have ever worked with and we had good experiences before. She found us our dream house for our budget. And not only did she work with us through all the details of the contract, the home inspection, and the negotiations with the sellers, but she also gave us a full day of her time after we had closed the deal and showed us our new neighborhood, areas of interest in Boston and the fastest way for me to drive to work. We felt taken care of by a friend. In addition, she kept in touch after we had moved in to find out if everything went well with the move and whether we liked our new home, which we do. Most importantly, we felt that we made a good deal and that the sellers who represented themselves were also comfortable how everything worked out. This was mostly due to Judy's ability to work out a deal that made both parties happy. If you want a realtor that knows Boston's market well, is well connected, aggressive, but not rude and listens carefully to what the client wants and can afford, we can only recommend Judy.
