An Actual Pleasent Realty Experience – My roommate and I made the decision to return to the Boston area from Washington DC in January. I was finiahing up a graduate degree and he was looking forward to a change of scene. I had previously lived in Boston for 10 years and thought I had been through the best and worst of the rental market that Boston had to offer. However, Adam Umina at Metro Realty was by far the best agent I have ever dealt with. He was completely patient and understanding of the fact that we had to do this o... read more

Susan Carroll is the Best Realtor in Town – Several people at my office had worked with Susan and recommended her so enthusiastically that I decided to call her when I needed to sell my condo. I had never sold anything before but I felt comfortable about working with her from the start. She handled a million details and answered a million questions with professionalism and patience. She always did what was best for me even if it was inconvenient for her, like personally bringing documents to my office for signing. When there... read more

Ask for Michael Pallares at Metro Realty – Michael Pallares helped me buy and sell my Brookline condo and also helped me and my husband buy a new house in Dedham. Michael is honest and straightforward, patient, and is amazingly prompt and proactive. He rapidly responds to calls if he doesn't answer his phone directly, which he does most of the time. Michael has many hidden talents that have shown up over time. He can refer you to a mortgage specialist and lawyer (an advantage for quick closings); he is a talented interior de... read more

Reliable, attentive service led to very smooth transaction – I used Michael Pallares to sell a condo in Brighton and was very pleased with the service. Most real estate agents are attentive at the beginning of a transaction, but disappear as it drags on. Michael remained attentive and active through the entire process. He held several Open Houses on the property and was able to attract two buyers in what was supposed to be a down market. He also handled some sticky issues with the condo association with professionalism. I fe... read more

Michael Pallares at Metro Realty did a great job – My husband and I just bought our first home (a condo). Right at the beginning Michael met with us for almost 2 hours on a Friday night and patiently answered all of our questions about the homebuying process. It's obvious he has a lot of experience. He helped us navigate through lots of viewings, and he was great about organizing everything to make sure we got to see the places that we wanted to see. He's easy to reach by phone or email. I appreciated his honesty and sense o... read more

Metro Realty: The Best!! – I cannot rave enough about this place. My buyer's agent was the most friendly, honest, and professional person I could have asked for - taking calls on Sundays, driving 30 miles out of town to meet me, you name it. They do whatever they can to get the job done without inconveniencing you at all. Believe me when I say there is no better place in the greater Boston area for you to handle your real estate affairs. Metro Realty is without a doubt the place to go!

Good firm, choose agent wisely – The office is beautiful and the office seems organized. Considering an area prone by pyramid scheming agents, which feed off the local college students the boutique is top class. However, my broker was a complete daft. He didn't make me a copy of the lease, took days to respond to my phone calls, whined when I told him my availability, offered no advice or guidance, had no general acumen in treating people as clients and was generally immature. All that for a 2000 broker's fee!

Buy a home with the best! – If you are looking for a realtor who will provide you with outstanding service, I would highly recommend Michael of Metro Realty. My wife and I were planning on moving to Boston from another city. We were skeptical of how we would find a home which fit into our specific needs from so far away. However, once we contacted Michael our worries were gone. He spent many hours with us on the phone determining our desires and offering us a ton of advice along the way. He was extremely familiar with all th... read more

Face It. – As a first-time homebuyer, I was apprehensive about navigating the real estate waters. All I ever heard from others, was what a "nightmare" home buying can be. Michael Pallares is someone I've gotten to know fairly well over the past few years as he was a client of mine. The tables were turned when I decided that for a first-time home purchase, it was to my advantage to "work with what and who you know." Because of this advantage over most, I can whole-heartedly support the many positive reviews of Michael on this... read more
