Over the 20 years of experience, I saw markets go up and down thru the real estate cycles.
I realized that first time buyers and sellers need to be guided, educated and assured in the buying and selling processes. My unique area of expertise in MA is the 40B affordable homes program. I take the time to listen carefully to understand my client’s needs, wants and concerns. I will be ready to take quick action when required, and spend more time with those who aren’t quite sure which direction to take. My genuine concerns, patience, loyalty, knowledge and devotion to you my client will make me your broker for life.
