What they have to say may help you
“We were so fortunate to meet Lisa Keshet as part of the Hospital Home Benefit Program that she founded and runs, that helps those of us on the frontlines of health care purchase new homes. Lisa is an exceptionally talented and highly experienced real estate professional, who was instrumental to us successfully purchasing a property in the competitive Boston market this year. It was especially appreciated that Lisa took a significant amount of time and effort to get to know us personally, and understood from the beginning that our available time to search for properties was very limited by our work schedules. She was patient and flexible, and made herself available at all hours of the day and night by text, email and phone as needed. She was extremely thorough in all of her explanations, and that allowed us to become more savvy about the home-buying process in a relatively short amount of time. She skillfully led us through all the necessary steps in order to put strong offers in on a number of great properties, until one was finally accepted. We are very happy with our new investment purchase, and honestly feel that we couldn't have made it without Lisa's expertise, communication and care for us every step of the way”.
--Anita K
“Working with Lisa Keshet was one of the best decisions we made when looking to purchase our first home in Newton, MA. Although we are local and were somewhat familiar with the area, Lisa took the time to show us around different neighborhoods in multiple parts of the city and surrounding towns. This helped us to understand what sorts of homes we were looking at in each area. Lisa is thoughtful, professional, and responsive. She helped us find a beautiful home despite our many specifications, and was a true pleasure to work with!”
--Caroline
S. & Michael K.
“My husband and I worked with Lisa Keshet, the manager of the Hospital Home Benefit Program, for over nine months while preparing our Boston home to sell, selling it and then purchasing another home. She was a great resource: helping us find contractors to paint the house, a real estate attorney to help with all the selling/ buying paperwork, an accountant for tax advising, and mortgage brokers. Lisa always kept in communication with us and was patient with all of our questions. Her team took professional photographs and shot an awesome video for the listing and prepared an accurate floor plan. She was with us all the way and we truly appreciated her professionalism and personal attention. We highly recommend Lisa and her team!”
--Sharon G. & Christian L.
“Lisa Keshet is amazing! We were first time homebuyers in Needham, MA, and she walked us through the entire process, from day 1. She helped educate us about the homebuying process, and made us comfortable with everything. She attended open houses with us to figure out what type of homes we liked. She was by our side for every step of the process, lending invaluable insight and appropriately guiding us. We would have been lost without her. She is responsive, responsible, and truly an expert at her job. She is also patient, warm, and supportive. We cannot recommend her highly enough!”
--Vanessa P. & Craig M.
