Eric Glassoff - Coldwell Banker Residential Broker

Please see above

We worked with Eric to sell our condo and purchase a new home. He was a pleasure to work with throughout the entirety of both processes. He is so friendly, knowledgeable, and communicative. He was always easy to reach, and very proactive. Our sale experience was fantastic -- In summary, we had an offer immediately after our first and only open house for a price that fell right in our target range! The story: When we decided to sell our condo, we met with several realtors and chose Eric because of his knowledge of our local market and his commitment to work hard to sell our home. He also provided great references from sellers and buyers. Eric helped determine the best price to list our home using comparables and features of our condo (he came to visit our home in person). We talked about timing of the listing (based on his knowledge of the local market in Allston/Brighton), and he gave us a list of suggestions to prepare the place for an open house/photos. One of these suggestions was to meet with a stager who gave us an initial consultation and list of items to remove, furniture to rearrange, etc. We followed all of his suggestions (none of the suggestions were expensive or difficult), and, within hours of our first open house, we had an offer! Eric negotiated with the buyer and helped us reach a price that we were very happy with. In our particular case, our first offer fell through, but Eric had a great backup offer for us within hours. Throughout the entire sale process, Eric was extremely responsive-- he would answer calls and emails at all hours of the day and provided us with constant communication about where we were in the sale process, what our buyer's agent was communicating to him, etc. Any time we had concerns or questions, he would address them immediately! When the buyer or anyone related to our sale needed access to our home, Eric always made sure that it was at a time/day that accomodated our strange schedules and he was ALWAYS there with them. Our purchase experience with Eric was also great. Once we had accepted the offer on our condo, we began the process of looking for a new home. Eric was again very responsive-- if we were interested in seeing a place, he would set up an appointment immediately! He was very helpful during the showings-- he would point out features that we really thought were neat, and would also point out items that we might find to be problematic. Eric also was great at giving us privacy and time to discuss the places we were seeing. He was never pushy! In our situation, we saw several homes more than once, and placed offers on quite a few places. In each case, Eric put the offer together very quickly, provided us with suggestions on how to much to offer based on comparables, and worked very hard to negotiate in a such a hot market. We eventually found a place that was perfect for us, and Eric helped us through the entire purchase process. We purchased new construction (which has its own complications) and had to meet with the builder many times. Eric was there with us for every step. We ended up closing on our sale and our purchase on the same day so that we could avoid moving more than once. Eric was with us in every step along the way. We are so happy in our new home now, and we owe much of that to Eric. When the time comes again that we have to move (although we love this house so much that it's hard to contemplate moving), we will definitely go to Eric first!
