Testimonials
" Chana Meyer enabled my husband and I to make our "second life" dream come true and move into Boston. We decided to sell our 1870's Greek Revival home in Newton, and we were under pressure, as we had already had agreed to buy our new home. Chana kept us sane and was there every step of the way. Selling an older home needs someone who truly understands the beauty and advantages of the house, while being realistic about what buyers are seeking---and Chana was wonderful! She was respectful of our time, while taking every opportunity to make sure the house was seen and appreciated by people who were truly interested. Most importantly, she really knew what pricing made sense in this difficult market---an especially critical skill. Once we had an offer on the table, Chana took care of everything: negotiating the price and timing, dealing with the inspection, making sure the process was smooth at every turn. Chana's poise, knowledge and wise counsel allowed us to have a closing at the best time for us, at a very fair price. The sense of confidence Chana showed meant the world to us and we would unhesitatingly recommend her."

"My husband and I had just begun casually looking in the Newton area for a condo. By chance we came across a townhouse that met all our basic requirements. We then called Chana to first review the condo and then help us proceed with the opportunity to buy it. Chana's expertise, calmness, patience, and willingness to make herself available helped resolve a trying and difficult purchase experience. Even though Chana was out of town for part of this time, she patiently handled all the difficult negotiations. Because we never expected to buy a condo before selling our house, we found ourselves in a time crunch to put our house on the market. Chana immediately instructed us in how to prepare our house for showings and checked in daily to support this process. meanwhile, she quickly prepared for Open Houses on the upcoming weekends. Chana was always available, day or night, for my many questions. She had a calming influence through my many stressful moments. She was always available and always professional. Through her experience as a realtor Chana was instrumental in the sale of our home within ten days from the first open house. My husband and I highly recommend Chana Meyer for any real estate needs."

"As a real estate broker in Minnesota for over 30 years, I was extremely impressed with how conscientious, hardworking, tenacious, and committed Chana was. She did everything conceivable to make sure no stone was left unturned in finding a buyer for my condo. She made sure that my property was maintained and cared for in my absence. Chana negotiated strongly and effectively on my behalf. One could not ask for a more devoted and professional agent to work with."
John Adams
"Chana made the process of buying a home so easy. She zeroed in on exactly what we were looking for and stayed with us throughout the process. We are looking forward to working with her again in a few years when we move up to a single family home."
Andrew Bernstein and Michelle Hermann
"I am not sure that we would have ever sold our home without Chana's drive, hard work and support. I called her mid June of 2010 to ask her if she thought this would be a good time to sell our home. She said it was at the end of the season but suggested that we put our home on the market until July 4th when she thought the market would cool off.. Within four days, Chana had our home ready for sale. She devoted long days and many hours to having our home prepared for a open house. Chana even placed flowers in the planters on our property. Before the open house, Chana contacted all our neighbors within a four block radius encouraging them and their friends to attend the open house.
A few days after the open house, she had a full price offer for us and another one behind it. But she did not stop working for us. She contacted electricians, asbestos removers and other professionals to get the necessary work done for the potential buyers. She also referred me to an attorney to handle the closing. She did everything possible to sell our home. She is very competent, smart, pays attention to details and is very resourceful. This is a broker you want to use."
Bob and Ann Stock
"We were extremely fortunate to have had Chana Meyer as our realtor. Choosing Chana was one of the best decisions we could have made as we planned to sell our house. She helped from the beginning, advising on furniture placement, needed minor repairs as well as the key to a quick sale: timing. There wasn't a detail that was missed as she guided us through the entire process. It all went very quickly; the house sold in one day and closed a month later. Having a dependable, thoughtful and well connected broker made all the difference for us."
Monique Lowd
"Chana Meyer is a superb real estate agent. She goes the extra mile for her customer, whether it is showing them just one more place that they might like, or finding a contractor of one type of another or checking to see if there anything new on the market since yesterday . Chana helps. She even makes suggestions about how one might down size or decorate a room. Her caring and competence are extraordinary. She protects both buyer and seller from disagreeable negotiations by giving clear messages and by making realistic suggestions."
Ruth Nemzoff
"We would strongly recommend Chana as a real estate broker. This is our second home that we have bought with her and each time we have been impressed with how she puts our needs first. She is not afraid to tell you when a home is overpriced and is very helpful throughout the negotiation process. During our inspection, an expensive issue came up and she actually had a contractor come over DURING the inspection to assess how much the repairs would be and we were able to get this amount taken off the price of the home. Spectacular service and a lovely person. Best of luck buying your new home. If we ever need another, we'll be sure to use Chana."
Rebecca Berman
"Working with Chana was definitely a highlight of what can be a very stressful process. Not only is she just a great person to be around, her professionalism and savvy saved us a lot of money and eased our nerves. We fully credit Chana for landing us our dream home. Chana is knowledgeable, a great communicator, and got along well with the other realtors, brokers, and lawyers involved. Chana is truly a gem to work with, and we can't recommend her enough!"
Adina Bricklin and Alex Kieft
"We couldn't be happier about our experience working with Chana. As first time home buyers, we were naive about the process and hemmed and hawed over a year as we searched for our Brookine condo. Chana was extremely patient with us, spending countless hours to help us understand our needs and the market. But she really showed her true expertise and saved us from many headaches (and saved us money!) with her expert suggestions during the process of negotiating our offer, P+S, and home inspection. Chana knows trust worthy colleagues for every step of the process and we were in good hands with everyone she referred us to. We couldn't be happier in our new home and now we really understand the value of a good real estate agent! Chana is the best!"
Julie P. (Brookline)

Gary Orren (Newton, MA)

"Chana was more than patient, showing me many properties. She understood my needs and the type of place were looking for and she found it,"
"Chana Meyer was outstanding. She is knowledgeable, straightforward, and introduced innovative strategies that helped us purchase our dream home. She was patient and understanding of our concerns and anxiety, but was also able to to let us know when we need to get the ball rolling and move forward. <br />Purchasing our first home in such a strong seller's market, with little inventory (and 15 other bidders on our home) was overwhelming and stressful. There is no one I would rather have by my side than Chana Meyer. She got the deal done and was a pleasure to work with, throughout the purchase process. I highly recommend Chana Meyer to anyone wanting to buy a home in Boston and the surrounding suburbs."
"Chana was an absolute professional and excellent agent. She had extremely valuable local knowledge and went above and beyond to close the deal and aid in our transaction. She's the best real estate agent I have ever worked with."
"Our agent, Chana Meyer, guided us to purchase our new home through relentless and tireless education, advice, and experience. She was wonderful at listening to what we liked or didn't like about every house we saw and was able to find us our perfect home. Thanks to the incredible expertise and experience our agent had in the neighbourhood, we were able to deal with a complex competitive bidding situation and still buy our house at a price that represented excellent value."
"Chana did a great job looking after our property while it was empty. It was reassuring to know she was checking it throughout winter. Her efforts drove the foot traffic that ultimately delivered our buyer and a highly satisfactory price."
"Our agent, Chana Meyer, was spectacular. As first time home buyers she walked us through every step of the process. Chana is extremely knowledgable and a delight to work with."
"Excelent in every way. Chana was invaluable and worked day and night to make our purchase and sale successful."
Barry Benjamin (Newton, MA)
"Chana has boundless energy, coupled with a deep knowledge of Newton and consumate professionalism. <br />She goes out of her way to take care of the petty details and is enormously helpful. The angst of selling one home and buying another is huge, and Chana made the experience, if not happy, at least bearable. <br />I would happily recommend her to anyone looking either to buy or sell a house."
"Chana Meyer is the only agent we have ever worked with, and this was our third successful and pleasant real estate transaction with her. Chana met with us and worked out a strategy for the timing, price, and condition of the offer, which ended up being very successful for us. I doubt that things would have gone so well without Chana's vast experience and intuition."

Zhengzhen Qi (Newton, MA)
"We met Chana who was very helpful in detailing all of the steps involved with the home buying process.

Working with a full service team made the entire process smooth, efficient, and extremely successful."
Courtney Stock (Boston, MA)

"Outstanding is an understatement. Chana Meyer is truly gifted and we cannot imagine anyone better to have helped us find the perfect home for our family. She expertly guided us through the stressful process of buying a new home and selling our condo, all within a short window of time. Juggling two high demanding jobs with two small children at home, my husband and I were grateful on a daily basis for Chana's thoughtful support and communication, her responsiveness, and her impressively extensive knowledge of the real estate market with all of its nuances. We cannot thank her enough for everything she has done for us and without a doubt will be sending our friends and family her way."
