We worked with Karen Bandera to purchase our first home in Hingham, MA; she was outstanding. Before choosing a real estate agent, we conducted a lot of research to better understand the buyer’s process and what type of individual would be best suited to represent us. The primary drivers in this decision were understanding of market knowledge, time and effort. Karen Bandera stood out as one of the best the South Shore had to offer: her organic client reviews are excellent. During the entire home buying process Karen Bandera put a lot of effort into representing us (her clients). She not only understood market trends and how to be a competitive buyer in an otherwise sellers’ market, but also made an appoint to understand what was best for our family’s needs in a home. It was very apparent she was always more focused on our home buying needs than she was on closing a deal. Over the course of 6 months, Karen Bandera spent endless hours answering our questions, providing objective data regarding the market comparisons, and touring open houses with us. Throughout this process she was patient and knowledgeable – we looked at 50+ homes. She cautioned on unreasonable offers and educated us on offers that would make us stand out. We highly recommend Karen Bandera to anyone who is considering buying/selling a home, even if you are in the early stages. She is a true professional and genuinely represents her clients with their specific needs. You will be hard pressed to find a better Realtor.

A true professional, Karen took the time to make sure we understood what was happening every step of the way, staying in constant contact. She ensured our home was well represented both in photos and in showings, and found a buyer that really appreciates the home. Everything from initial listing through to closing went smooth as silk, largely due to her diligence and professionalism. I highly recommend her to anyone looking to buy or sell a home.

I have known Jess Tomlinson since 2007. What I can say with 100% confidence in those 14 years is when it comes to Jess, she is extraordinarily thorough, self-driven, and loyal. When my husband and I were ready to purchase a home, there was no one else I could fathom guiding us through this process other than Jess. The real estate market is overwhelming to say the least, and I thought this way before I dipped my toes into the process. Once we dived in, I immediately wanted to jump out of the water and resign to renting forever. Jess is not afraid. She was not afraid to be honest, to do the hard work, to negotiate, or to “be the punching bag” as a myriad of roadblocks popped up during our closing process. She is an effective communicator and was always available the same day I had questions or concerns. I understand now how politics can factor into such an aggressive “seller’s market,” but with Jess what you see is what you get. She made sure we felt comfortable and empowered moving forward with each step of the process. She takes pride in teaching others, especially for new homeowners like us. Touring homes was a crash course in responsible homeownership, which I found to be quite fun and exciting! 10/10 I would recommend working with Jess Tomlinson. She knows what she is talking about, and she genuinely cares about your investment being right for you.
