I met Frances many years ago when I first moved to Arlington and was looking for an apartment to rent. She helped me decide which area was best for my family's needs. A few years later, in 2012, she represented us as we navigated the difficult terrain of buying a home in Arlington. I truly don't think we would have been successful in buying our home without her guidance and expertise. She acted decisively with our best interests at heart. We were fortunate to have Frances represent us again this year, 2022, as we placed our beloved home on the market. Frances worked with us very closely as we considered the best price and timing of our sale. Things couldn't have moved more swiftly or smoothly. I moved abroad mid-way through the process but I knew that Frances would take care of things on my behalf, and she did. She worked closely with our attorney and also the buyer's agent to ensure that the details of our sales agreement were correct and completed in a timely manner. If you have yet to select a buyer/seller representative, my suggestion is to think very carefully about that decision if you plan to buy/sell in the greater Boston area. It is a tough market and you need someone you feel will represent you each step of the way, as though you were a member of their immediate family. Frances is that person.

We started our journey with Frances over 10 years ago. Her experience and knowledge of the real estate market is astounding. She has always responded to our questions in a prompt and professional manner. She not only explains the process in detail, she explains it so you can understand. She has a network of people that make the home buying/selling process painless and seamless. We have recommended Frances to people over the years and they have used her multiple times both buying and selling their homes with overwhelming satisfaction. What started out as a business relationship in 2012 turned into a decade long friendship built on trust because of how much she cares. 5 stars can’t express her rating. In fact, there aren’t enough stars when it comes to rating our friend/agent Frances Allegra!

Frances Allegra is an excellent and a very knowledgeable real estate agent. I am glad she was my real estate agent and would recommend her to anybody who wants to sell their property.

Frances is a skilled agent with a great sense of the market at any given time. My husband and I grew to trust her completely. When we bid on our new home she negotiated deftly for us and shared her opinions when we asked. We couldn't have gotten it without her.

My husband and I just bought our first house through Frances. Working with her couldn't have been easier or more pleasant. She was available to answer our (many) questions and always responded in a timely manner. She was helpful for every step of the way from inviting us to the open house, assisting with getting preapproved for a mortgage, helping with our offer, arranging addition walk throughs, and more. What generally is a very overwhelming and stressful process (especially in the very competitive Boston-area market) couldn't have gone more smoothly. I highly recommend working with Frances, and know we will again in the future!

Frances provided a wealth of experience & knowledge in both selling and finding a new home for us. With creative ideas she will take you every step of the way with ease and professionalism and a great sense of humor.

Frances helped me through what, at times, was a challenging process in finding the right home. She is knowledgeable about the real estate market and about the flavor of various communities. Scheduling-wise, she was available and flexible for private showings and open houses. Throughout the process, Frances was skillful, caring and upbeat.

Frances is a fantastic agent. We worked with her to buy our first home. After we gave her an outline of what we were looking for, we found that whenever we visited homes she recommended we ended up liking them far better than the ones that we were picking out. We attribute this to her understanding of areas and her perceptiveness to her clients needs. She is patient, punctual, careful and highly responsive. She also has a very thorough understanding of the work and cost required to bring a house to a certain state. Frances was recommended to me by a colleague at work who spoke highly of her and we will recommend her to our friends and colleagues as well.

Frances quickly understood our specific needs, tailoring the search accordingly. She found us a house that is the perfect fit. She is also a delight to be around.

Frances has helped me and my family purchase and sell 2 homes. Her industry knowledge and authentic approach made the process as stress free as possible. Knowing she was always one step ahead and advocating for our best interest really sets her apart from the rest. I highly recommend Frances whether it's your first home buying experience or you've had many, you will be blown away by her professionalism, consistency and unsurpassed standards. I can't say enough how much we loved working with her and how much of an impact she's made in our lives.
