Who We Are
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 as than our family, our friends, our business partners – and the city we love.

Buying or selling a home is much more than a real estate transaction — more times than not, it’s a life-changing experience. That’s why we’re relentless about sharing our expertise, leveraging our vast network, and tapping into our deep knowledge of Boston (and beyond) to help make that experience a pleasurable one. Our mission is to elevate the art of buying and selling homes through strategic partnership, collaboration, and innovation — and to build relationships that last far beyond today’s deal. We believe our success, and the success of those we work with, is predicated on our core principles of hard work, loyalty, and authenticity. We love the work we do, we love the city we call home, and we’d love to work with you.
Who We Are
Who We Are
When you list with us, the first thing we do is find out what makes your home unique. We firmly believe the key to selling a property quickly, and for top market value, is to tell a remarkable story about it. We use all the talent and resources at our disposal to showcase what makes your house a home — from the most prominent feature to the smallest detail. Beautiful photography, eye-popping video, and compelling copy from our dedicated in-house marketing team, all come together to make your property shine. But that’s just the beginning.
Who We Are
We then combine this art of storytelling with the science of finding the right buyer. Utilizing demographic and geographic insights and market data, we develop a profile for buyers looking for homes like yours (in neighborhoods like yours) and create interest by activating our vast network through a number of channels including social media, press opportunities, the multiple listing service (MLS), Top Agent Network (TAN), and our international market partner, Knight Frank.
Lastly, we build out a comprehensive marketing plan, powered by our datacentric approach, to help get the unique story of your home in front of those uniquely positioned to buy it.
And we do it all, using a collaborative approach — where we’re relentlessly active, highly engaged, and completely available — like 24/7 available.
Because that’s what it takes to sell a home in today’s market, and that’s what it takes to be the best at what you do.
Who We Are
Photography
Our talented photographer will shoot breathtaking, high-res images of your property — beautifully highlighting every feature of your home.
Video
Partnering with the best videographers and drone pilots in the industry helps us produce best-in-class video showcases of your home — inside and out.
Professional Brochures and Website
Our in-house team will design a suite of callateral to share at showings and broker events — and build your property its own custom website.
Social Media
The driving force behind most real estate marketing today, our active, engaged, and ever growing social media audience of 300K+ is our lifeblood.
Public Relations and Broker Events
Commanding visibility in the press via DE’s best-in-class PR team and gaining exposure through events and programming are just two more ways we create a buzz around your property.
