We consider ourselves very fortunate to have had the pleasure to meet and work with Michael during the purchase of our condominium. Michael is one-of-a-kind. He is kind, caring, and knowledgeable. He always had our best interest no matter how big or small the problem - he was always there for us. Not only is Michael fantastic at what he does (and we are very particular), but we also now consider him a friend.
"I had a most satisfying experience working with Michael Rothstein on the recent sale of my Newton house. Michael was recommended to me by a friend a year ago, after I decided to move abroad and sell my house of 20 years. Michael helped me at every step of the process, before and after my move, from finding move organizers, finding reliable professionals to prepare the house for sale and overseeing their work, to helping with the necessary paperwork. I was impressed by Michael's professionalism, knowledge of the market, resourcefulness, and excellent judgment.
“Michael has been very pleasant to work with, always listening to any concerns that I had, and always available. Michael has made an otherwise very complicated move, a lot easier. I was able to leave feeling confident that the sale of the house was in the best hands. Thank you, Michael!"
