Very responsive and honest! If she doesn’t have the answer to a question you have she will quickly find the answer! When she says she will do something you can count on her to follow through. Never pushy and always genuine! We have found a Realtor for life!
Marie is a great judge of character of how the market works. She is available for questions at all times. She made the process easier with her kind and knowledgeable demeanor. We would recommend her to anyone without hesitation.
When we began thinking about buying our first place, Marie's name was highly recommended by a good family friend. Being our first time in the real estate market, we were incredibly overwhelmed and nervous about the steps that took place. We were so lucky to have Marie to hold our hand throughout the process and break things down into manageable chunks. It's obvious that Marie has been in the business for a while, she's got great connections and knowledge, helping us get in touch with anyone from mortgage lenders to movers. Even more important than her experience, Marie was a calming presence during this overwhelming time in our lives. She really helped us feel confident about every decision made along the way, and as a result, we ended up with the home of our dreams. We cannot recommend Marie enough and hope to work with her again in the distant future.
Marie is a wealth of knowledge of MA and was able to help us find the right home that met our long list of goals in a short time- even in this ultra-competitive market with very low inventory. Without her advice, expertise, & superior negotiation skills, I’m certain that we wouldn’t have had as great of an outcome. She also has tons of great recommendations for everything- home inspectors, general contractors, et cetera. On top of all that, she’s a delightful conversationalist. So glad we found her and had both the opportunity & pleasure of working with her. Thanks Marie!
Marie has been so helpful with our purchase of land to build a net zero home. She referred us to architects and builders who are experts in the process. She has been responsive to our every question and need. It has been a pleasure working with her.
Mrs. Shapiro’s knowledge of the process was great, she has terrific communication skills, Marie’s level of patience is excellent. We started this process started from April and we closed in December. I would highly recommend her as a realtor with your best interests at heart. Should I ever decide to go through this process again " Marie " would be the only realtor that I would use. I am grateful for Marie Shapiro for my second investment 🏡🏡
We have worked with Marie for nearly 15 years. Over that time we have both purchased and sold properties with Marie as our realtor. She is amazing. You will not find anyone who will work harder or is more dedicated to her craft. She is tireless, thoughtful, kind and generous. She has brought us investment opportunities that have been terrific as well. She has orchestrated sales where we have received multiple offers well above asking. She has navigated complex purchases where we have been the "runner up" and actually facilitated things to enable us to purchase the property. She is not pushy or aggressive, but rather deliberate, planful, true and honest. She builds and fosters incredible relationships and that is very much the foundation of her business. Marie has also helped us rent out some of our properties as well. Even though that is not her main business she does so cheerfully and incredibly successfully as well. There is nothing she cannot do and nothing she will not try. It is a true pleasure to collaborate with her in the real estate realm, whether buying or selling or renting or even just researching the market. She is generous with her time and knowledge and has made all our transactions a total pleasure. I can't recommend her highly enough!!
My husband and I recently had the pleasure of working with Marie Shapiro to purchase a new dream home. From our initial conversations and throughout the whole process, Marie was professional. She was highly knowledgeable about the local market and made sure I always felt like a priority. Marie came through with her commitment to excellence. Marie’s negotiation skills were first-rate. She consistently found ways to get us the best deal possible. She also went out of her way to ensure every detail was taken care of – from arranging inspections to researching potential issues with a property.
Marie made selling my aunt's condominimum so easy. Not only did she handle the listing and sale expertly and efficiently, but she also helped with all the little pieces of the process: hiring a real estate lawyer, managing the needed repairs, selling the furniture, and so on. I appreciated her support, energy, and good humor through what I thought was going to be a difficult time for me.
Marie was so helpful and kind in guiding me through the first-time buyer process. She told me exactly what to expect, explained every step, and coached me through all the anxiety of buying my first place. She was always available for my (very frequent) questions and helpful in making decisions. I trusted her to make sure I got a fair price, and to deal with negotiations as needed. I 100% recommend her and would love to work with her again!
I first met Marie when she was listing a home in Needham for rent. She was great in that process and I knew when it was time to buy a home, I would be calling her. A year ago, I reached out and wanted to start the process of locating a home and knew I would need to look out of the area and act fast. Marie was great about getting me in a program that would send listings to me for the towns I was most interested in. She would always call the listing agent with any questions I had. When I would see a home I wanted to tour, Marie had the time and date set up within the hour. She was always available to us. There was no town out off limits as she was willing to go anywhere I needed her to go. I can't say enough about her balance of being professional and personable. She is so knowledgeable about the real estate market and helped to guide us with important decisions in this most competitive market. I would have no hesitation in referring her to a friend and would consult with her again if in the market to buy or sell.
Anyone would be lucky to have Marie Shapiro as their real estate agent. She worked so hard on our behalf, was very professional, smart and always enthusiastic. We love our beach cottage and would absolutely work with her again.
