Carmela is a wonder in this world. We moved to Boston in 2004 and bought our first waterfront condo from her - she has represented us in every purchase and sale since then (there have been three).

Great experience with Travis recently, sold my condo in the north end. He knows the Boston market inside and out and is incredibly efficient and organized.

WHAT OUR CLIENTS SAY

My property was for sale with another broker for 3 months and I was very unhappy with their performance. I had already signed a purchase and sale for another property with a contingency to sell my property so I had a lot riding on this sale. Once I hired Carmela she went to work and sold my property in 2 weeks! What more could I ask for. She is an amazing broker and business person.

Having no knowledge of Boston, we were at a loss regarding the housing market in Boston. This agency stood out as they provided brochures for each property we visited.
