"We were so fortunate that friends had recommended Paula to us as a real estate agent. We were first time home buyers entering a very competitive market. Paula was outstanding in every way. She helped us understand all parts of the home buying process, she set a custom search criteria in the neighborhoods that we were interested in, and spent countless weekends looking at potential homes. She never pressured us in the decision making process and really took the time to help us find our dream home. When it came time to bid, she helped us get the house beating out at least two other offers without exceeding our budget. Through the closing process, she recommended a great attorney. Paula is a delight to work with, is extremely knowledgeable about the market, and is a true professional! I highly recommend Paula for any home buying or selling needs.”"
Laurie C., Jamaica Plain (Buyer)
"We have worked with Paula for many years, both buying and selling our homes. She is stellar, everything you would want your agent to be - knowledgeable, responsive, organized, and creative. She has an excellent eye for presentation. We sold our home in Jamaica Plain last fall, and her staging and online photos really made the home stand out. It sold the first weekend. We really appreciated her strong organizational skills when we bought our new home in Brookline. The condo unit was new construction and there was a substantial punch list and other matters that needed to be completed before closing. Paula kept on top of all of them and worked with us to be sure they were completed properly and on time. Her experience really shone through. We can't recommend Paula highly enough."
Nolly C., Brookline & Jamaica Plain MA (Seller and Buyer)
"We put our home search in Paula's hands and she found us our perfect condo in Brookline within a few visits. She then negotiated a price that was much lower than we would have dared ask for. It was so helpful to have a steady, competent and empathetic partner during the whole process. Paula saved us time, money and stress, I would absolutely use her again.”
Petra N., Brookline, MA (Buyer)
"We met Paula in the fall of 2020 when we were considering buying our first home and right before the real estate market became the insane market that 2021 was. She guided us through a very tough market for first time home buyers and helped us adjust our expectations while still using what we really needed and what was non-negotiable as our compass. Even though it took several offers, she did not give up and encouraged us to look outside the box. With her eye for a good opportunity, we were able to get a condo that was exactly what we needed and more and we were able to get it for under asking and under its appraised value which felt like a miracle. She also continued to help us through the negotiation process up until the final walk through and closing. We love our home and were very fortunate to have Paula as our realtor and would definitely recommend working with her.”
"Working with Paula was great from start to finish! She gave us helpful direction in every step of the process. She targeted the right audience and sold our place after just one open house. I have recommended her to numerous colleagues and they were also very impressed with her professionalism and expertise. Highly recommend!" - Sarah G., Boston, MA, (Seller)
"Paula has all of the qualities you want in a realtor...she works hard and has extraordinary local knowledge and an excellent understanding of the importance of timing and opportunities. She handled the sale of my house and my condo purchase and both went like clockwork...and she had a lot to balance as there were different legal teams involved and both closings occurred on the same day! She is strategic about pricing and is detailed oriented so I could focus on other things. Her calm manner and professionalism helped me look at things in a rational, rather than emotional way, producing great outcomes for both transactions. And in the end I got what we all want...a place to call home that feels wonderful each and every day." - Susan S. Brookline, MA (Seller & Buyer)
"The best decision I made when preparing to sell my home was to work with Paula. I chose Paula over an agent who proposed a higher listing price because I felt that Paula was very realistic and was basing her advice on extensive and up-to-the-minute market analysis. The best part of going through a house sale with Paula is that she is always, and I mean always, there to guide, support, advise, and pick up any slack. My circumstances required me to move even before we listed the property, and it was only thanks to Paula that I had full confidence that every detail will be taken care of. And it goes almost without saying that she was masterful in all the negotiations and held my hand all the way to and even post the closing. As I was going through the process of looking for a new house in my new location I kept thinking how much I miss Paula and her meticulous approach and how much better off I would have been with her as my buyer's agent!" - Olga C. Brookline, MA, (Seller)
