FAQ

Questions, answered.

Everything you might be wondering about buying, renting, and selling with us. Still curious? Just ask.

Working with us

We'll always explain exactly how we're compensated before you tour a home, in writing. Compensation is discussed and agreed up front so you can decide with full information - no surprises at closing.
Current Massachusetts and national practice calls for a written buyer agency agreement before touring homes. It defines the relationship and what we owe you. We'll walk you through it in plain language.
We focus on Greater Boston and serve buyers, renters, and sellers across Massachusetts. If you're not sure whether we cover your area, just ask.

Buying

It varies by loan program - some allow as little as 3-5% down, while others expect 20%. We can connect you with trusted local lenders to find the right fit, and our mortgage calculator can help you estimate payments.
From accepted offer to closing is often about 30-60 days in Massachusetts, depending on financing and inspections. The search itself can take anywhere from days to months.
In Massachusetts, you'll typically move from an accepted offer to a purchase and sale agreement, complete inspections, finalize financing, and do a final walkthrough before closing. We coordinate each step with you.

Renting

Yes. We help renters find apartments and homes across Greater Boston and navigate applications, leases, and fees.
It depends on the listing. We'll tell you up front whether a broker fee applies and who is responsible before you commit to anything.

Selling

We build a valuation from recent comparable sales, current competition, and demand in your specific area - then talk through a realistic range and the reasoning behind it.
Often less than people expect. We'll give focused prep guidance - the improvements worth making and the ones that aren't - before listing.
