The Sullivan Team affords a competitive advantage against the pack. Kathy and Terry Sullivan have made a profound impact on our lives and will be our real estate business partners -- and a part of our family(!) -- in perpetuity. Rather than work with our family members who are real estate agents outside of the North Shore, we opted to go with the Sullivan Team because our friends recommended them so strongly. Not only did we gain a true partnership with THE BEST on the North Shore, but we gained new members of our family in the process. This latter point cannot be emphasized enough and it’s truly difficult for my wife and I to express in words the full extent of our gratitude for the incredible care, attention, thoughtfulness and counsel the Sullivans provided throughout our home buying process. Real estate aside, and considering I work with dozens of global media and technology companies, the Sullivan team is easily one of the most impressive businesses I’ve had the pleasure of working with. I demand a lot from business cohorts and have been consistently impressed and overwhelmed with the Sullivan’s expert counsel. Whether it was understanding the North Shore real estate landscape, reviewing pricing trends, narrowing down our home search, learning about lead paint, identifying a banking partner, negotiating purchase price, making calls to city officials on our behalf, selecting an inspector, hiring contractors and so much more, the Sullivans have played an integral role in each business dealing associated with our home purchase. We’ve learned a lot from Kathy and Terry Sullivan about the importance of putting meticulous care into each decision we make in real estate. The Sullivans have consistently gone above and beyond for our family -- not just answering our every call, but also proactively reaching out to us with ideas, opportunities and insights to help us. If you’re reading this, you’re lucky -- it’s your turn to gain the Sullivan advantage.

My family has worked with the Sullivan team 4 times in the last 10 years. Kathy and Terry are busy agents but, based on their attentiveness, you would never know it. We never worried over details like lenders, inspectors, contractors..just relied on their guidance and were never disappointed. There is no guesswork with this team. Price histories, comparable properties, trends, etc. are all carefully researched on your behalf, whether buying or selling. If you want the best, call Kathy or Terry or Bonnie (Office Mgr.)

Before choosing our sales representative, I interviewed several of the higher end agencies active in our sales area, all with impeccable reputations. We chose the Sullivan Group primarily because from the first moment of our discussion they impressed me with their comprehensive, personalized and professional process that should be the standard in the industry. Unique circumstances were recognized and smoothly incorporated into their sales solution. When “eyes on” attention to the many challenges of our experience were needed, Kathy Sullivan was on it, late evenings and weekends. Although not engaged for the buy of a replacement property, Kathleen was available with advice and consul. The people she recommend for move related services were also the best available. I can’t honestly say I look forward to my next real estate sale but I also can not imagine not calling the Sullivan Team agin to represent me. They are the best of the best from my perspective.

My husband and I relocated to Salem MA from Los Angeles and had to begin the home buying process from across the country- which can be a daunting task. We were lucky to find Kathy and Terry who devote all their time and attention to their clients and made the process as easy and smooth as possible. In such a competitive market we felt extremely confident having Kathy represent us in our search and ultimately found the perfect home for us. Kathy is extremely communicative and kept us up to date on all aspects of the process. Her knowledge of the area, and most of the professionals who operate within it, is invaluable. Not only did she help us with the purchase of our home, but she helped us to find professionals to help with the renovation, lending, and closing process. Kathy truly is a resource every buyer should have access to. We would never buy or sell real estate again without Kathy and Terry!

We have had a wonderful experience working with Kathy and Terry over the past 10 plus years. They have expertly guided us through 5 transactions, purchasing 3 homes and selling 2 of them. Each time has been a remarkably easy and smooth process. We really appreciated Terry’s fact based analysis when it came to pricing our houses. And Kathy manages relationships exceptionally well between everyone involved, including contractors, lawyers and other agents. And she is a great negotiator! With Kathy and Terry as a Team we sold both our houses above asking price in the first weekend! We highly recommend them for their professionalism, attention to detail, experience, and closing the deal. Stop looking and use the Sullivan

I recently sold a home in Marblehead under difficult circumstances. Kathy and Terry were empathetic, acted promptly and professionally throughout the process which was at time very difficult, and were always available to address my questions and concerns. The home was sold and I look forward to finding my next home with Judy Coughlin.

Kathy and the Sullivan team made my boyfriend and i's first time home buying experience a smooth, easy success. She knew the best financing strategy to get our offer accepted in a competitive market. She knew vendors to help understand issues brought up by our home inspector and was there with us from our first interest through closing and after. Kathy and the Sullivan team truly made the whole process pleasant and easy. They answered all of our questions and went above and beyond to get us all the information we needed. She is extremely knowledgeable of the mechanics of home structures and systems, mortgages and lenders, contracts and attorneys. We could not have asked to work with anyone better. If you want to go through a smooth, easy, successful home buying process We would HIGHLY recommended you choose the Sullivan Team.

We love Kathy, Terry, and their coworker Bonnie. They have helped us 3 times, selling our home in Peabody in 2008, buying a home in Lynn in 2012, and selling same home in 2016. We're rolling stones in a sense and have decided to live in an apartment instead of owning. Kathy, Terry, and Bonnie did amazing work with the assessment of the value of the home and the marketing, including listing our home on multiple web sites in record time. For both homes that were sold, it only took one open house to achieve offers. The Sullivan Team is very knowledgeable regarding paperwork needed for sale, and what a "good" offer looks like. It can be deceiving as it not always the highest number, but the most confident and solid offer. They are all also great people, which to us is just as important. We consider them our friends. Most sincerely, The Cronins (David, Jeanne, and Patti)

Kathy and Terry were great to work with. My dad had recently passed away and my sister and I needed to sell his house. Terry and Kathy were the most prepared and professional of the agents we interviewed. It was a difficult process because my sister lives in another state so a lot of e-mailing had to be done. Kathy was terrific at keeping us informed at every step of the way. Kathy was very helpful with suggestions to make the house more salable. She was also able to connect us with painters, electricians, and others we needed to have help repair things and spruce up the property. When I decide to sell my home, they will definitely be the team I call.

I have had the pleasure of knowing Terry and Kathy Sullivan for the past 11 years. I cannot say enough about their knowledge, expertise and passion for real estate. To say that they went 'above and beyond' for us is a complete understatement. Navigating the waters on a challenging condo sale and then working with us to find our dream home in a neighboring community - they walked us through each step of the process with diligence and care. I highly recommend The Sullivan Team to anyone looking to buy or sell on Boston's North Shore.

We recently sold our condo in Salem, MA after one showing. Terry and Kathy made sure that everything was thoroughly and professionally prepared including marketing analysis, advertising, photographs, staging before listing it. Kathy responds quickly to any concerns and shepherded the transaction through including mentoring an inexperienced realtor representing the buyers. The entire process of selling our condo happened in our absence and it all went without a hitch thanks to the skill and professionalism of the Sullivan Team. We appreciate all the hard work that went into making the process go so smoothly.

We met Kathy Sullivan at an open house for one of her listings. Her enthusiasm for that home (which we did not buy), along with Terry’s sophisticated analytical work, caused us to select “The Sullivan Team” as our go-to broker for buying and selling two homes. In the past, we’ve worked with other brokers in the Boston area and there is simply no “comp” for Kathy Sullivan. She is in a class by herself, as is Terry.<br/><br/>They are both very skilled professionals, and other reviews have quoted many examples of why they are so good to work with and why they are so good at what they do. Some of the qualities that set them aside from other brokers -- their intellect, integrity and work ethic. <br/><br/>Terry is one of the smartest guys in the business. He has created proprietary technology to collect and analyze massive amounts of data to help sellers price their property to the maximum and expedite the time frame for closing. This goes far beyond general expertise and surpasses the normal evaluation of “comps”. <br/><br/>Kathy has a work capacity far beyond the norm. She is simultaneously tracking every detail of the deal, anticipating issues, communicating with all parties, and negotiating towards the end goal. Kathy doggedly pursues every opportunity for her clients, but she is also fair, reasonable, and creates an infectious can-do atmosphere that propels the deal to completion. <br/><br/>You could not ask for better representation no matter if you are a buyer or seller (and we have been both).
