Meet The Team
Who We Are
IN MASSACHUSETTS
We’re Knowledgeable
Our years of experience helping both buyers and sellers have helped us find a sweet spot between strategy and data and insight and instinct. While most strive to work smart not hard — we do both.
We’re Innovative
Exercising persistent curiosity can reveal more than one way to get to the right place. Being highly adaptable, boundlessly resourceful, and wildly inventive doesn’t hurt either.
We’re Relentless
We love what we do. We get up every morning ready to get to work. We invest, we compete, we grind. We don’t believe in luck — results come from the hard work you put in.
We’re Connected
Boston’s a historic city – we have history here too. We’ve lived in the neighborhoods, we’ve made lifelong friends, we’ve built a successful business through our networks. This is home. There’s no place we’d rather be.
We’re Authentic
‘Real’ is a hard word to describe — but you know it when you see it. Human. Personable. Trustworthy. Telling it like it is isn’t always the easiest way, but it’s the only way we know.
We’re
Caring
This business isn’t all steel, marble, and wood. It’s mostly about people. And nothing means more to us than our family, our friends, our business partners – and the city we love.

What people are saying about The Sarkis Team
“The Sarkis team was outstanding in handling the sale of our property! From start to finish, they demonstrated exceptional professionalism, market knowledge, and communication. They guided us through every step, ensuring that we felt confident and informed throughout the process. Their strategic approach to pricing and marketing led to a quick and successful sale at a great price. We couldn’t have asked for a better experience and highly recommend them anyone looking to sell their property. They 100% exceeded our expectations!”
- Steve Garten
“The Sarkis team was insturmental in getting the best possible price for the home we sold and the home we obtained. They were great communicators and offered solid guidance. I truly believe we wouldn’t have won the bidding competition on our house without them. Highly recommend.”
- Jennifer DeSouza
“We were referred to the Sarkis Team and have only received high-end service and advice from the start of our property purchase. The Sarkis Team goes above and beyond what is expected of a residential real estate brokerage team, and their support has continued beyond closing. We look forward to using the Sarkis Team in future real estate purchases as well due to their comprehensive support.”
- Matt Wallace
“I had the pleasure of working with George Sarkis and his team at Douglas Elliman Real Estate, and I must say, it was a fantastic experience. George was not only a great real estate salesperson but also a pleasure to work with. His knowledge and expertise in the industry were evident from the start, and he helped me negotiate my dream house successfully.
One thing that stood out to me about George was his attention to detail. He was always on top of things, ensuring that I didn’t miss any deadlines and guiding me through the entire process. Even after the closing of our house, George continued to check up on me and my husband, making sure everything was going smoothly. He would send us beautiful messages and small gifts on every holiday, showing that he truly cared about his clients.
Overall, working with George Sarkis and his team was a wonderful experience, and I would highly recommend him to anyone looking to buy or sell a home. His dedication, professionalism, and genuine care for his clients set him apart in the real estate industry.”

George Sarkis, Co-Founder and CEO of the Sarkis Team in Boston, has leveraged his 10+ years of real estate experience and market knowledge to turn his company into one of Douglas Elliman’s top-performing teams in the country — with nearly $1B in sales since its inception.
With record-breaking sales in Boston, Metrowest, and near his home on the North Shore, George loves to make a deal but never the wrong one. “I’d rather kill a deal that benefits me and my team, than make one that’s bad for a client. I’m always focused on building a long-term relationship versus making a short-term transaction.”
Authentic, relentless, and fully engaged with an unrivaled work ethic, George does whatever he can to help his clients. Whether he’s leveraging his deep knowledge of the city to help someone find the right neighborhood for their family or tapping into his vast network to help offer concierge-like VIP service around town, no task is too big or too small.
A lifelong resident of the area and avid Boston sports fan, George is a member of Douglas Elliman’s elite Sports and Entertainment Team and has represented many high-profile Bostonians. George’s “your time is valuable,” no-nonsense approach is the perfect fit for the town he calls home and a big reason he has a strong base of repeat and referred clientele.
George’s unique approach to selling sets him apart. He’s handing out business cards, checking in by phone, or sitting down for coffee as often as he’s leveraging emerging technology and connecting with his large social media following.
When George isn’t working, he’s spending quality time with his wife and two daughters or sitting on the parquet watching his favorite team, the Celtics.
