Lisa Macalaster

Lisa helped us as first time homebuyers, moving from Boston to Scituate. I met Lisa through the Beacon Hill Women's forum, and immediately felt she would be the perfect realtor for our big life change. She exudes a confidence and energy that you really need when going through what can be a very stressful process. She didn't hesitate to work with us even though we were moving away from the city. One of the things I loved about Lisa was that she made the experience so personal, it wasn't just a business transaction. She played the therapist role as well as the realtor role, when I had moments of fear of moving to the burbs after loving city life for so many years! She really helped us navigate through some tough scenarios, that could have otherwise thwarted our home search. She helped us make the right financial decisions when our emotions were too wrapped in a specific home (when the home inspection went horrifically). If it weren't for Lisa, we would have made a terrible move continuing the purchase of a home that would have been a modern day "money pit." Lisa recommend the lawyer we used, inspectors, etc which helped move the process along much more quickly. I can't say enough about what a pleasure it is to work with Lisa. I would highly recommend her to anyone, but especially to a first time homebuyer. You need Lisa behind you :)

Lisa was the listing agent for another property I was looking at and I ended up working with her because not only is Lisa knowledgeable and resourceful, she is also very patient and encouraging which made the whole process so much more enjoyable! She recommended the lawyer and house inspector, both of whom turn out to be great as well - and if you're a first-time buyer, having somebody who is there for every single step along the way really helps. I would definitely recommend Lisa if you're looking to buy around Boston area.

Lisa recently helped find a tenant for our one-bedroom apartment in Beacon Hill. The apartment was listed and rented within a week above the asking price. Lisa was extremely helpful with organizing everything, and making sure we remembered all the small details. One of the most helpful things was being able to trust that she was telling us what we needed to hear and giving us a true assessment about everything that was going on. It made a big difference, especially as first time landlords.
