"Michael is a rare gem. My experience buying a house in the highly competitive Newton market with him could not have gone better. A few key highlights: I'm typically nervous around new people, but Michael immediately put me at ease, explaining the process, the market, and getting me off on the right foot with a great mortgage lender. He truly listened to me and guided me through every step of the buying process (including ALL the EMOTIONS), offering sound advice while keeping a positive, realistic outlook.
"Remarkably, I met him on a Tuesday afternoon, and by the following Monday, my offer was accepted on my dream home. I believe this was only possible because of Michael’s extensive experience, strong reputation as a top agent in Newton, and exceptional work ethic. From Friday, when I first saw the house, to the offer being accepted on Monday, Michael was in constant contact, including coordinating with my mortgage broker, arranging a pre-inspection, and helping me strategically bid.
"Even after our offer was accepted, Michael continued to guide me—recommending a lawyer, answering mortgage and insurance questions, and suggesting contractors. He was there for me 100% throughout the entire process, and I highly recommend him."
