Signal Real Estate = Justin Rollo = A+++…read more Buying a home for the first time is an exciting experience but it can also be nerve-wrecking when the real estate market is hot, people are buying in cash, and properties are flying off the market in less than 24 hours. People give conflicting info, negotiations go back and forth, and the massive amount of paperwork - it can all make your head spin. However, my husband and I found an ally in Justin Rollo who guided us newbies through the entire process. Justin has more than just the basics down. He knows the Boston-area market stats, understands asking price vs. value, and is always accessible via phone and email. What puts him over the top is that he is client-focused and realistic. He catered to what we wanted - humoring us with comps when we insisted on crunching the numbers ourselves even though he already did it. I know, we are geeks. Our situation was probably more complex than most. We wanted to finance our purchase with a VA loan which meant more hoops to jump thru and an extended timeline. Even though this resulted in several non-winning offers on a few properties, Justin remained committed to finding us the right place and had our back even when we received some less than standard (*ahem* shady) counter offers. He took his time with us and we never felt rushed. An important differentiator about Justin is that he delivers a hands-on experience which it doesn't end when the contracts are signed. He will go to your inspections, deliver down payments, meet you at 730AM to check repairs before closing, email you back after hours, and even communicates with the seller about issues AFTER closing. He is on his game all the time and we lucked out with a solid agent in Justin. TLDR: Justin has his clients best interest in mind and gets it done. Highly recommended.

Our experience with Randy started off amazing, he prepared a presentation of what our entire experience of homebuying will be to get us ready for each step of the journey. He set us up on Compass where we could easily track open houses in the areas we were interested in. Every open house he accompanied with us he had a wealth of knowledge he was able to share about the property and gave us sound advice every time. The total process felt so seamless with Randy along with his team of experts he recommended to us with our Mortgage, Closing and everything in-between. Randy was always a text or call away and had great advice during every step of the way. If you are in search of a realtor who is an expert, a leader in his industry, responsive and overall great person you've found the one. Cannot say enough good things about Real Estate Randy! During our closing Randy was sweet enough to put together a very thoughtful care package for us to wish us well on our new homeowner journey. We look forward to working with Randy again in the future!

Elizabeth listened to and understood our unique needs and preferences, sharing specific properties she thought we would like (and she was always right!).

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.

I lived at their apartment in Cleveland Circle last year. The apartment was a 3rd floor apartment…read morein a house- yes a house lol. They refurbished the apartment just before we moved in. We hardly had any maintenance issues but if we did then they had a magnetic business card on the refrigerator to contact them or if u go online to their website you can submit a form. Our maintenance guy lived on the first floor but I was uncomfortable to disturb him, he's such a friendly guy and always helpful, I just preferred reporting the issue with the management company so that they had it written in writing. Issues were always resolved same day or next business day depending on the time reported. They are very responsive to emails and always professional. I mainly spoke with Hayward, he's friendly and a great guy to talk to. I moved back to my hometown but if I stayed in Boston I definitely would have rented with them again or maybe in future if I move back.

Anyone who has complaints about Octagon does not realize how good they have it, you are getting the full-service building experience at a fraction of the cost.

from Michael Quincy, Mass / NYC…read more If you are looking to list your home and property on the market, look no further than Hillary Birch. That is to say if you want a dedicated, intelligent, highly experienced broker with deep integrity and a super kind heart. I first met Hillary about 7 years ago, just a month after my mom had passed. My mom had left me her two family home in the Wollaston section of Quincy. I live in NYC, and everyone & anyone around me at the time strongly advised that I sell the house. When I met with Hillary during this time period, I had expected her to advise the same. From my previous experience in the real estate business, I'm aware that a sale is a lucrative and desire commodity; certainly over the rental market. Much to my surprise, Hillary suggested that I keep the property as an investment, and rent out the two units. I intuitively trusted her expertise; and most importantly, her humanity (not necessarily a common trait in business). I took her advice, and in just over six years, my house DOUBLED in value. When I was recently ready to sell, Hillary was (& is) the only agent in the business that I would consider working with. Unsurprisingly, Hillary brokered an accepted offer in less than two weeks, for TOP market value; and we closed in less than one month. Due primarily to Hillary's diligence, determination to make a deal advantageous for both parties, and her warm & gracious style.; the entire deal went smoothly from the first day to the closing. My only regret is that I don't own a another home in Boston, just for the fun and ease of working with Hillary all over again-:) Additionally, ALL of folks that Hillary collaborates with to make a selling a home successful transaction (including lawyers, contractors, etc) are reliable, dependable, and honest. Deciding when or if to put a home on the market can be a stressful proposition. However, if you're lucky enough to have Hillary Birch selling your property, you will be in the very best of hands.
