"Allison is simply tremendous at her job. We had the pleasure of working with Allison and Emily on both the sale of our former home and the purchase of our new one- all of which happened in the span of roughly a month. Finding our new home took a while and Allison was forever patient with us. She was always happy to show us a listing and also to evaluate our existing residence after various renovations. When we finally found our forever home, she and her team not only negotiated a great deal but set us up with a team of experts to move the closing process along as seamlessly as possible. On the selling side, she and Emily had us ready to go to market in two weeks and we were under agreement within two more for well above asking. Buying a home is an emotional and costly endeavor and we felt completely taken care of during the entire process by Allison and her team. A lot of people know the market, few delight in the job as much as Allison does. It's a pleasure to work with someone as kind as they are competent. We cannot recommend her highly enough."

"Allison Blank is the best. I first spoke to her soon after my husband died when I wanted to buy a condo and sell my house. I immediately liked her and felt that she "got me" and would not waste my time showing me things that were not to my taste or within my price range. She found my beautiful penthouse and helped with a difficult negotiation - and then COVID struck, two days after we had put my house on the market. we took the house off the market immediately because I did not feel safe with people walking through it. Allison checked in with me continually during the shutdown - she even brought me lunch one day which we carefully ate outside. When I was able to move into my condo we put the house back on the market - and she sold it in one day. What more could I ask? Allison understood how difficult it was for me to move out of the house I had lived in for 50 years and made it as painless as it could possibly be. I would recommend her with the greatest enthusiasm. Now that we are done with business I know that we will be friends." -Gail

"I have done several deals with Allison. She has represented me as both a Buyer’s as well as a . She has done incredibly well by me every time. Allison is professional, thoughtful, thorough and a pleasure to work with. She is particularly good at navigating the complexities of human emotions in real estate transactions, something that is very difficult and often underserved. I recommend Allison without hesitation." -Sean

"We just bought a home and a home with Allison in Newton, MA. Honestly I can't say enough good things about her and about our experience on both ends (buying and selling) with her. She is a pleasure to interact with-- friendly, fun, knowledgeable, super-responsive with such a positive "get it done" attitude. Allison is a great negotiator, and somehow manages to maintain a calm, serene composure at all times. She knows the ins and outs of the market, and has a sharp eye for detail (which was hugely helpful when we were prepping our to sell). We recommend her with absolutely no reservations, and will certainly be telling friends who are buying or selling to reach out to Allison!" -Kelly

"Allison Blank is a wonderful realtor. She our Brookline for us. She arranged for needed repairs and staging, found help for us to clear out junk, she took care of and dealt with everything. The whole time she held our hands when we needed it, and was delightful to work with. We got way over asking price and are convinced that Allison made that happen. We hope never to sell another , but if we do, we would want to work with Allison." -Libby

Allison is thoughtful, patient and knowledgeable in answering all your questions throughout the entire process. While she always has her client's best interests at heart, she is also ethical and professional in all her interactions. We would definitely work with her again and would recommend her highly to friends and family." -Meg and Kunal

"I can’t say enough about how much we enjoyed working with Allison when purchasing our Brookline home. From our initial meeting, we were impressed by her knowledge of the market and her passion for real estate but truly for helping us find our next home for our growing family. Allison provided us with important guidance during the process that made us smarter buyers and ultimately negotiated a very strong deal on our behalf.
Allison was always available to us throughout, always optimistic and happy to talk through any anxiety I had. Honestly, it was amazing to work with her because from the start I felt like Allison just “got me”!! We will definitely work with her on all future real estate transactions and recommend her without reservation!" -Chantal

"Allison is everything a realtor should be and more! She took the time to get to know our taste, style and must haves for our home. Most importantly, she made us feel comfortable moving to a new city. Relocating from Baltimore we knew absolutely nothing about the real estate market or what neighborhoods to focus our attention. Allison is so well versed in the Newton/Brookline area that she immediately put our minds at ease. She is so connected within the community that she found two properties before they even went on the market. During a time when there was very limited inventory that ended up being crucial in our ability to find a house in our given time frame. Thanks to her hard work and determination we found the absolutely perfect house! Working with Allison was an absolute joy and we will be forever grateful for meeting her!" -Megan
