Buyer, Beacon Hill

Katherine went above and beyond to help me but my first home. She was listening to what I wanted and sent me the listing that was perfect for me as soon as it became available.

Buyer, Waltham

We have worked with Katherine twice - once to find our rental in the South End, and once to buy our house in Waltham once COVID hit and we needed more space. We were so impressed by her expertise, her professionalism and her overall hustle! She works 'round the clock to keep your home search on track - from sourcing listings, scheduling visits, negotiating offers and celebrating on closing day - she covers it all! We were first time home buyers and she was so helpful and patient with us - answering our million questions and guiding us through the process. I can't say enough great things about Katherine - we are SO glad we worked with her!

Landlord, Back Bay

Katherine assisted us in renting our condo in Boston. Our experience with Katherine from start to finish was absolutely fantastic. She brought great insights about recommendations for listing (both time to list and price) which resulted in us achieving multiple applications within one weekend of being on the market. We were originally referred to Katherine by good friends of ours who have had multiple fantastic experiences with Katherine both buying and selling properties in Boston. We would highly recommend Katherine as an agent for either a sale or rental - we can't thank her enough for all of her help and hard work!

Buyer, South Boston

Kat Bell is a fantastic realtor — she was the perfect fit for us as first time homebuyers. From finding our condo, to negotiation, and all of the steps required for closing, Kat was an immense help. If you need someone to rely on, definitely work with Kat.

Buyer, Charlestown

I have had the pleasure to work with both Maddy & Katherine and could not recommend them more highly. They have immense local knowledge and deep connections in the city and west of Boston suburbs. Their knowledge stems from personal experience, family history, and an obvious interest in what they do. This set them above the rest in helping us to navigate the pros and cons of where to live and what to expect. They are organized, enthusiastic, timely, and overall wonderful to work with.

Seller, Beacon Hill

We were trying to sell our place in Beacon Hill - and Katherine did a phenomenal job. We were under some time pressure as we were moving + needed the home equity for another purchase, and Katherine set up several great showings within days of listing (including a few before official listing). Not only did she help sell our place for a great rate - but she went above and beyond in helping ensure everything was perfect during our close process. While we were out-of-state, she proactively coordinated cleaners and helped with logistics for a few small fixes. 10/10 - wish we could bring her with us to buy/sell in California!

Buyer & Seller, South End

Working with Katherine Bell has been truly a delightful experience. At the end of 2021, Katherine managed the entire process of helping me buy & sell in the South End - and made the process seamless. Somehow she was always available and worked with my unpredictable schedule. Katherine also comes to the table with a vast network of lenders, inspectors, lawyers, etc. all of whom have nothing but incredible things to say about her. I can't recommend Katherine enough.

Buyer, South End

We have now bought two homes and sold one using Maddy as our agent. She’s excellent in all aspects of her job and somehow even makes the process enjoyable. Thanks Maddy!

Buyer & Seller

It was a pleasure working with Maddy. She represented me during both the sale of my prior apartment and the concurrent purchase of my current home. From the jump, Maddy was eager to help. She staged and photographed my apartment beautifully, and we had an offer as soon as the MLS was live. When the first prospective buyer fell through, Maddy redoubled her efforts, found another equally appealing offer, and managed the closing process seamlessly. Maddy’s efforts during the purchase of my new home were equally impressive. Our search for a new home began during the height of COVID, when Boston’s real estate market ground to a halt. Maddy diligently highlighted available inventory, uncovered pocket listings, and provided guidance on where she thought there was value in the absence of significant sales activity. Even when my stipulations changed, Maddy always smiled and hustled to get us int…

Ultimately, we found what we were looking forward, and Maddy managed a pleasant and painless negotiating and closing process. In short, it’s easy for me to recommend working with Maddy. Buying or selling a home can be just as stressful and frustrating as it is exciting. Maddy simply made the experience more enjoyable.

Buyer, South End

Hands down Maddy is the best. Maddy, & team, helped me buy my first Condo- a daunting experience for anyone. Though, from day one, Maddy kept me calm, cool, and collected and made the process a breeze. Maddy’s knowledge of the Boston market, along with her network of trusted partners (attorneys, inspectors, home repair/contractors) is second-to-none. She was only a quick text or phone call away to provide sound advice & reassurance. On top of navigating the various complexities of home buying, Maddy went above and beyond to help me find a new tenant for the apartment I was renting. She embodies the ideal of client service & lending a hand. I would highly recommend Maddy for any real estate need you have. Thank you Maddy!

Seller, South boston

Maddy was great to work with. Her enthusiasm is unrivaled! I hired her to sell my condo and got an offer well above asking so quickly that I was able to cancel the open house. She is really a social media wizard and we even had an offer before the first showing. Once it was under contract, she guided me through the process and made it as easy as possible. I really enjoyed my experience with her and look forward to working with her again soon!

Buyer & Seller, Back Bay & South End

I can safely say Maddy is the expert on the Back Bay and South End. She knows which properties are right for you and how to get you into them ahead of everyone else.

Buyer & Seller, South End

Maddy was an absolute pro and pleasure to deal with. She knows the market and only showed things that made sense. I would highly recommend her.

Buyer & Seller, Back Bay & South End

Look no further if you're a buyer - Maddy is an absolute superstar. I was working with another agent and had lost out on multiple properties, and then I met Maddy Petrini. I talked to every agent in the city, quite literally, and I can safely say Maddy is the expert on the Back Bay and South End. Not only does she know which properties are right for you and how to get you into them ahead of everyone else, but she knows how to win them. 100/100 can't recommend enough.

Buyer & Seller, Newton

Maddy was an absolute pro and pleasure to deal with. Maddy knows the market and only showed things that made sense. Could not recommend it highly enough, when back in the market Maddy would be my first call.
