The Historic Homes Difference

Some people have the misconception that listing their home with a larger agency is the best approach. In fact, there’s no advantage listing your property with a large brokerage firm. Thanks to the power of the web, every real estate company, large or small, has the same reach. What’s most important is the broker’s knowledge of the market, track record, and ability to negotiate the best price.

At Historic Homes, we’re proud of the elements that make us unique:

• In-depth knowledge of Greater Boston’s upper-end market with special focus on Brookline and Newton
• Extreme selectivity regarding the homes we choose to represent
• Strategic improvement recommendations that can unlock your home’s untapped potential
• Direct representation by Historic Homes principals
• Customized, property-specific marketing presentation materials that capture your home’s unique character and rich history

  I just wanted to say it was a pleasure working with you on the sale of my home. If I relocate back to the area, I would like you to represent me. And, I'd happily recommend your services to my friends and family.

  S.T.

  Miceal Chamberlain represented us in the sale of our property in Brookline. Working with Miceal and Historic Homes was a pleasure, both from a professional and a personal perspective.

  S.C. & H.S.

  Thank you for all your work in helping us sell our property. Most especially, your helpful advice on what needed doing prior to putting it on the market. And for your invaluable help in identifying the necessary contractors and helping to ensure the work was done properly.

  G.B.

  We are most grateful to Historic Homes for the speedy and successful sale of our house in Chestnut Hill. The advice they provided could not have been better. It was remarkable that they found the right buyers so quickly. We send our deepest thanks to everyone at Historic Homes for your fine work.

  T.F. & J.K.

  We found Historic Homes to be extremely professional in its approach to selling our home. Miceal Chamberlain was always available when we had questions and listened carefully to our concerns and ideas. In the end, our home sold in three days for the full price. We strongly recommend Historic Homes.

  L.B. & C.B.

  When we lost our home in a fire it was quite a shock. Historic Homes familiarized us with the processes of the Newton Historical Commission, and when we realized that it would be best for us to sell, Historic Homes negotiated an offer that was higher than we could have ever expected.
