What Our Clients Say

“We worked with Sarina on the sale of our home in Newton, and our experience with her was amazing. Sarina is a fantastic partner; she marketed our home really effectively. Sarina executed a comprehensive plan that resulted in a terrific outcome, and the process went smoothly from start to finish. We wouldn't hesitate to recommend Sarina to anyone looking to buy or sell in Newton, and if we ever find ourselves in the market again, we'll absolutely be working with her!”

“It was a pleasure to work with Sarina. She helped my wife and I navigate a very competitive market from several states away and was very responsive to our texts, calls, and emails. Sarina showed us many houses virtually and during our in-person visits was always eager to play with our kids as we viewed houses. We would work with Sarina again in the future!”

“Sarina Steinmetz was so knowledgeable, skilled and efficient in getting the job done, and always with a smile. She shielded us from all the attendant anxieties that the seller experiences while the house is on the market. She brought in a crew of 13 men who put on a new roof in one day! She has high energy and the magic touch!”

“No one knows the market or hustles like Sarina. She has a network of individuals who trust her and come back repeatedly to seek her counsel and good service — I know I did! I admire her follow up and creativity.”

“Sarina went above and beyond our expectations. From developing a sales strategy, to advising us on preparing the house for sale, negotiation and all the post-sale details, Sarina was pro-active and highly professional. As we were relocating out of state, we were especially grateful that she took care of the many details that would have been hard for us to take care of.”

“I would highly recommend Sarina to both sell your home, and help you find a new one. She will leave no stone unturned finding a buyer. Her networking skills are impressive. She is a fantastic negotiator, and most importantly she is honest.”

“I had the privilege of working with Sarina as my realtor when purchasing a home in Newton. Sarina's knowledge about real estate is impressive, and given her vast experience, she is most certainly able to do more than the average agent. We had been looking for a house for a long time, and Sarina stayed patient and attentive throughout the entire process. Her advice and knowledge is priceless. She is well connected and respected by other realtors and real estate attorneys. She recommended some great people to work with during and after the buying process, and left no loose ends until the deal was closed. I know Sarina worked many days and well into several nights to fit my schedule and ensure all the legalities for purchase were satisfied on time. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend Sarina to any person who is looking to buy or sell a home, as well as seek her service in any of my future real estate transactions.”

“Sarina came to us highly recommended and she more than lived up to her reputation. We were relocating and looking for a new home in the Boston area but weren't sure exactly what we wanted at the outset. With Sarina's help we figured out what it was and where we wanted it to. Throughout the process Sarina worked tirelessly and her insights were invaluable. She helped us every step of the way, not only showing us a vast array of properties, but guiding us through search, purchase, closing, and beyond. We could not have done this without her and by the end of the process I came to think of her not only as our broker but as a friend. I cannot recommend her highly enough, she is highly professional, knowledgeable, has boundless energy and patience, and will always go the 'extra mile' for her clients.”

“With very limited houses available in our price range, Sarina's knowledge of the market proved invaluable in ensuring not only that we found a home, but found a home that we love. Buying a home is always a stressful experience with lots of emotional ups and downs, but Sarina's sense of humor made the process enjoyable. She has a generous spirit, and is always available. When she had to take an unexpected trip overseas due to a family emergency, she even video conferenced with us from halfway around the world! There are many decisions you will need to make when selling or purchasing a home, but the most important one is straightforward enough. You want Sarina on your side. (Just call her already!)”

“Another successful and smooth transaction with Sarina and Zev. We have bought and sold and bought again with them. They found the perfect home in the perfect location and negotiated for the best price each time. We closed all our transactions without any problems or issues. They are great professionals that we recommend all the time.”

“Working with Sarina and her team is a pleasure. Sarina knows the real estate industry and market inside and out. She's a true professional who somehow also feels like a member of the family! We moved into Needham, which is not Sarina's area of expertise, yet she got herself right up to speed on the market and made excellent recommendations to us about the homes that we were considering (including not to bid on a house that she believed was overpriced — the house ended up selling for far under listing price). Her team made sure that all of the seemingly endless details about selling and buying a house were taken care of. When it came time to negotiate on the sale of our condo and the purchase of our home, Sarina made sure that we received a fair price and that we paid a fair price, and now, here we are, in the home of our dreams!”

“Sarina was a fabulous partner in the sale of our home. This is the 2nd time we worked with Sarina (the first was as a buyer), and she is simply terrific. It starts with her overall market knowledge — thorough analysis on pricing, transaction trends, and insights into competitive properties for sale. All critically important to optimize your home's sales price. Next, Sarina's attention to detail and candid feedback on staging the property were incredibly valuable. Arranging rooms, suggestions on minor upgrades, furniture rental, painting rooms, etc., all were provided to create a look and feel that made the property sing. Having a realtor both with this skill and the desire to help with a plan was amazing! Once tweaks were completed, a great marketing plan for the house, including professional photos and a 3D tour. WOW! What more could you ask for when you are buying or selling a home? We highly recommend partnering with Sarina and her fabulous team in the buying or selling of a home. You will be thankful that you had the opportunity to collaborate with her.”

“Our experience working with Sarina was nothing short of incredible! Sarina was professional, enthusiastic and hard working. She took time to walk us through and explain every step of the selling process. She had a great marketing strategy and helped us maximize our selling potential which resulted in us selling our house for more than 20% above our asking price! We would highly recommend Sarina to anyone looking to buy or sell a home.”

“I have been working with Sarina since 2003 and will always come back to her. Sarina really knows the market and I trust her instincts completely.”

“Sarina is personable, friendly, and easy to work with. She works tirelessly to make sure her clients are satisfied with final terms and conditions. She knows Newton inside and out and is honest about her assessment of a house. I highly recommend Sarina.”

“From the outset, Sarina was 100% invested in not simply getting us into a house, but finding a home that best fit our family. She gained our trust immediately by talking us out of a purchase in a neighborhood she felt wasn't right for us, and ended up finding us the perfect home in a neighborhood we never want to leave. She expertly navigated us through negotiations and made the entire buying process painless from start to finish. Sarina was an absolute pleasure to work with!”

“Having an opportunity to partner with Sarina with the sale of our home superseded our expectations! She demonstrated both great experience and knowledge in the real estate business. Her perseverance and attention to detail helped create a seamless process in the sale of our home.”

“Zev and Sarina assisted me in selling my mother's Brookline condo. She had lived in the condo for many years and it needed a lot of cleaning out. They helped get it cleaned out and sale ready quickly. Zev also dealt with the other condo owners to ensure a smooth sale. He had to make an extra effort for me as I was not in the area for the sale. Zev kept me informed on all the offers and we had a quick successful sale. I would use them again.”

“We couldn't recommend Sarina more highly. Moving out of state, when you've lived in Newton for 30 years, is complicated on many levels. Working with Sarina was a pleasure. She is knowledgeable, professional, warm, attentive to details and genuinely cares about her clients. Having Sarina guiding us through the process of selling our beloved home made everything easier. We were more than satisfied and, should we be lucky enough to move back to Massachusetts, she will be our first phone call.”

“Sarina is a talented and highly professional real estate expert. Her exceptional knowledge of the market enabled a very smooth and quick sale, which took a lot of stress out of the selling process for us. It was a bonus that she was also a pleasure to work with. Sarina is very personable and friendly. I highly recommend her to anyone considering the sale or purchase of a home.”
