Muneeza Realty Review…read more We were referred to Muneeza by a mutual acquaintance. From the very first meeting, Muneeza was on point. She visited our home with purpose, told us exactly what needed to be done and why. On her second visit, She gave us a presentation that detailed her entire process. Her team along with Germaine work like a well oiled machine but with plenty of human touch. They were there every time we needed them. We went to contractors which were her referrals (100% transparent and no kickbacks). She provided multiple and we decided after evaluation. They all did a fantastic job. She and Germaine worked tirelessly to stage the house and make it look absolutely gorgeous. In fact we have taken that to heart and decorating our new home much the same way. Our home got sold within 48 hours of open house at above asking price. The open house had 16 families show up which was astounding. I would recommend Muneeza and her team to anyone wanting their home sold. We not only got our home sold but also gained a friend in the process. Our son who wants to work in the real estate space also loves shadowing Muneeza and watch Muneeza and Germaine work their magic!

We absolutely loved Muneeza's work in selling our house. She is very thorough, knowledgeable and…read moreprofessional. She covered everything from marketing to open house leading to the house going under contract within a week. It was a smooth ride. Thank you very much.

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!

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.

In general, you don't think much about a property manager until things go wrong, and then you learn…read morewhether you have a winner or a loser. These guys are the WINNERS! - or more importantly, we are the winners for hiring them. The best way for me to describe how good they are is to compare Platinum to our previous property manger is to list all the things they do right: 1. They provide organized and detailed financial statements, budgets, long-term planning in order to maintain property value, and they keep a good eye on the reserves of the future. 2. They have construction knowledge and know what to do when things break. 3. They have a comprehensive list of professional service providers and repair consultants so when things do go wrong, they can call someone over quickly - roofs, elevator, cleaners, gardeners, alarm services, etc. 4. They are able to do the legwork to get detailed bids, negotiate, and oversee projects so that we are using the best service people. They are responsive by email and phone when they are needed. 5. They even helped me source a service person to do some work inside my unit 6. The understand insurance and contracts. The property manager we had before Platinum was disorganized, inexperienced, and useless. Two years into that contract and we knew we need to find another property manager. We have been with Platinum for a little more than 2 years and we are so grateful to have found them. And finally, we are a small building with just 8 units. Most property managers didn't want to work with us because of our size, but we are thrilled that Platinum took us on as a client.

My partner and I were lucky enough to connect with Pearl at 4 Buyers Real Estate (who was referred…read moreto us by a friend of ours who had worked with Pearl in the past) while we were looking for our first home in the Boston area, and we're so, so grateful for it. Pearl was with us every step of the way, and is a deep fountain of knowledge for every aspect of the home buying process. She was the hub of a wheel of experts she recommended based on her experience, including a real estate attorney, home inspector, mortgage provider, several contractors of different specialties that our home needed, and other agents in the areas in which we were looking. She helped us move quickly, and intelligently through our journey as first-time homebuyers. If Yelp allowed more than 5 stars, Pearl would get them all.

I'm not going to bury the lede: you want to work with this company. We just moved into our new home…read moreand couldn't be happier Our agent, Dave Twombly, was incredibly knowledgeable and a great partner in this complex process. His expertise and support not only helped us make good decisions, but feel confident in our choices - which really matters when you're making the largest financial decision of your life (so far). We really appreciated Dave's attention to detail, sense of humor, and clear dedication to our best interests. 4 Buyers Real Estate's policies reflect the ethical stance that Dave shared with us in his initial pitch. Agents are paid based on the listing price or the sale price - whichever is less. This means that agents aren't incentivized to push the sale price higher to improve their fee. We also agreed up front that we would not waive the inspection in our offers. This meant that we had to do a few pre-inspections in competitive situations, but they were worth the price we paid for the peace of mind. Go through the details when you talk to 4 Buyer's Real Estate. You'll see that they've set up their company to encourage ethical behavior and to support their clients best interests - which means that you can know and feel like you have an ally as you buy your new home. If we ever need to buy another property, we're calling Dave again!

We could not have asked for a better realtor than Elizabeth! She was incredibly kind, patient, and…read moreattentive throughout our entire home search. She really listened to what we were looking for and never once pressured us toward a house that wasn't the right fit. Instead, she gave us thoughtful guidance and the occasional subtle nod when she thought a property might be a great match for us. She was also incredibly responsive and always willing to meet us for showings on short notice, which made such a difference in a competitive market. Elizabeth helped us find our dream home, coached us through every step of putting together an offer, and helped us land on a winning strategy that we still feel really proud of. She made what could have been an overwhelming process feel manageable and gave us confidence without ever taking the decision-making out of our hands.

Well if you are looking for a realtor who cares only about his commission versus the client then…read moreyou have come to the right place. Ask for Brett Derocker. If Brett holds the listing and you are in co broke situation then expect him to do anything he can to assure the deal does not go through. Why would he want to split a commission when he can get the entire commissions for himself... even if it hurts both the client and the potential buyer/renter. All he cares about is his wallet.

It was a great house with great bones that I lovingly restored and renovated. When family responsibilities required me to relocate, I contacted them to act as sellers agent.

Hans and Nancy have a ton of expertise and were a pleasure to work with. My house sold within a week at a competitive price.

Because of her many years in the industry she has a vast knowledge of who/ where to turn for anything from flooring contractors, attorneys, and even the best market basket to shop at.

It was a fantastic experience--Maria made the process very easy, from recommendations for staging the unit, getting high quality photographs and listing the unit. Maria was able to connect us with a highly motivated buyer and was able to get the unit under contract very quickly, significantly over asking. Then she and her team made the process of getting an attorney, the inspection, paperwork, getting the unit into fire code compliance, walkthrough and closing smooth and painless. Would highly recommend and work with her again (for the third time!)
