Testimonials

"Avi Liss, Esq of Liss Law, LLC – Real Estate Attorney

Truly one of the best….on every level. Extremely knowledgeable, timely, professional. Mary and her team understand what it takes to get things done. I highly recommend this team to any and all!



Ethan – Seller of $350k Jamaica Plain condo and Buyer of $600s Brookline Single Family

When my wife and I asked Mary and her team to help us find a new home, they delivered everything we could have asked for, and were a real pleasure to work with. Mary and her team helped us sell our JP condo and buy a house in Brookline within a few months, all while we juggled two little kids. Mary and her team were tireless, supportive, knowledgeable, personable, creative, effective, and professional every step of the way. They really went the extra mile.

If you are buying or selling in the Boston/Brookline/Newton area, you would be doing yourself a disservice not to consider hiring Mary and her team.



Celeste – Buyer of $600k Brookline house and Seller of $350k condo in Jamaica Plain

Mary is a phenomenal realtor. In a very difficult market we found a “for sale by owner” that we were interested in. Most realtors would try to steer us away due to the reduced commission, but Mary took on our purchase with a full committment of her time. And it was one of the most difficult transactions we ever hope to experience (the seller fired her attourney hours before the P&S was due to be signed and considered doing it again minutes prior to the closing). Mary is an excellent negotiator and pricing strategist. In addition, she calmed me down in several late evening phone calls. Her team knows their stuff and helped out with preparation of all of the details for our sale. They even stepped in at the 11th hour in our purchase, properly installing all of the proper smoke detection equipment (the wrong detectors were masking-taped to the ceiling) so that the seller would not fail the fire inspection. Really above and beyond!!

I honestly can’t say enough good things about Mary and her team.



Daniel – Seller of $700k condo in Newton Highlands Buyer of $850k Single Family in South Natick and Rented out $4,000/mo Newton Highlands condo in years prior

So professional, supportive, savvy, and in the know.



Jocelyn – Seller of $500k+ Brookline condo

Mary is an incredible real estate agent and my husband and I consider ourselves very fortunate to have worked with her in selling our Brookline condo. She has expert knowledge of the Boston area market and her pricing strategy was spot on. We received an above asking offer after our first open house and are confident that the sales price was higher than what we would have received with any of other agents we interviewed (all of whom suggested a dramatically lower asking price). Mary and her team knew how to effectively market our property using the latest online tools and resources. They were also very professional and personable and we were confident throughout the sales process that we were in good hands. Mary and her team always kept us up to date with what was going on during the sales process and were very easy to reach if we had questions. I would highly, highly recommend Mary Gillach. We had a fantastic experience with her and her team!



Len – Buyer of $1M+ townhouse in Brookline’s Washington Square neighborhood

At age 62, I’ve bought and sold several properties and worked with several agents. Mary is, hands down, the best. She’s smart, knows the market like the back of her hand, is completely trustworthy and enjoyable to be with. Even rarer, in my experience: she really listens! We told her what we were looking for and that we didn’t want to vary too much from our guidelines. She did not waste our time looking at prospects that weren’t on target; or, to put it positively, she filtered out the inappropriate stuff and "

Maxine and Jeff – Buyers of $1M+ Newton Centre Single Family

Mary is a phenomenal realtor. She helped us to find a wonderful home and guided us through the ins-and-outs of an extremely challenging real estate market. She offers her clients a winning combination of business savvy, local market expertise, and integrity. She clearly leverages the skills she developed as a Wharton MBA and through her years of experience as a healthcare executive. 
A few things that really stand out about Mary: 1) Highly analytical approach that provides a strong level of comfort through the bidding process 2) Goes to bat for clients on negotiations — thoughtful and persuasive in approach, even drafting letters for clients when needed 3) Knows EVERYONE in the Newton/Brookline market (seller’s agents, contractors, etc.) 4) Actively listens to her client’s needs to find us find us the home that best met our desires
We would highly recommend Mary to anyone looking to buy a home in Newton, Brookline or the surrounding areas. And we would be glad to work with her again in the future.



Buyer & Renter

Art was the listing broker for a condo I rented from an out of state owner for a number of years. He was always responsive and helpful. When it was time for me to buy a place of my own, I knew I wanted to work with Art. He took the time to listen to what I wanted, never pushed me to buy anything, was patient, thorough, hard working — and above all — trustworthy. I have recommended his services to my friends, and will do so again in the future. I’m really happy with the place I bought and can’t imagine moving anytime soon, but if things change, I would have Art represent my property and help me find a new one. An overall nice guy.



Jon – Buyer of $550k condo in Brookline’s Pill Hill/Brookline Village neighborhood

We have bought and sold several properties in various states and there is a clear difference when you have someone good on your side and when you don’t. Mary is not just good she is fantastic.

It was a very competitive time when we needed to buy. Mary expertly guided us through properties, offers and finally our ultimate closing. She gave us clear and professional advice and contacts when we needed them.

We will definitely use Mary again and give her our highest recommendation."
