A few reviews from past clients The Post Shirley Team was referred to us by a family friend. Prior to beginning working with them, we had scoured the Boston real estate market for well over a year, with several unsuccessful offers and of course many disappointments. The team at Engel & Völkers turned our luck around within two weeks of working with them. As first time homeowners, they truly listened to our needs and helped us to make sense of our priorities in order to find our perfect home. When we began working with them we were pretty convinced that we would never be able to buy something in Boston but they convinced us to remain hungry and hopeful! They were professional and responsive in representing our interests to the seller. I would recommend them without any hesitation- their honesty led us to find the perfect home as they advised us on pros/cons and encouraged us to be aggressive when the right place came along! They are everything we hoped for and more in a realtor team! - Arielle and Andy, buyers My husband and I worked with the Post Shirley Team. They were highly professional and had a great deal of knowledge about the Boston R.E. Market. We discussed a plan to get the condo ready for the market and they were really helpful in referring me to great contractors (the one I got on my own was horrible). They even offered to help with the staging (I don’t know any other realtor that would do that!) They contacted me after every open house and we had the condo sold in 3 weeks. My husband and I felt that they really worked hard to show the condo and it paid off. We would use them again in a heartbeat!
- Lois and Evan, sellers
The Post Shirley Team went above and beyond when it came to selling our condo in the South End. They not only met with us in person to discuss the market and our concerns—we sold at a time when many units in our neighborhood were also for sale— but they were always enthusiastic and more than willing to spend their weekends hosting open houses. I would highly recommend this team if you are planning on either buying or selling in the Boston area. - Candice and Paolo, sellers The Post Shirley Team are terrific realtors. They know the local market extremely well. We moved to Boston from out of state, so didn’t have the advantage of being in Boston while properties came on the market. They kept us well informed, quickly realized what we were looking for and which properties would be a good fit. We looked at several properties during our limited search time and found an ideal place. They’re responsive, caring and outstanding negotiators. Thanks!
- Luz and Teresa, buyers
I worked with the Post Shirley team when I first moved to Boston. I had no idea where I wanted to live and upon meeting them it was immediately clear that they have an unparalleled knowledge of the market. They spent numerous hours with me going to open houses on the weekends and arranging private showings all over the city. Their upbeat personalities and high energy made this process genuinely fun and stress free. They listened to my individual needs and eventually guided me to the South End where I ended up purchasing a condo and couldn’t be happier! Their hard work, constant accessibility, and unparalleled knowledge of the Boston market made the entire process absolutely seamless. Even months after we closed they were always available to answer my questions and provide insight into anything real estate related. The Post Shirley Team was a please to work with - I’d highly recommend to anyone! -Brendan, buyer
