We were relocating from the West Coast, and Maxine was wonderful in working with us cross-country. She did
thorough research so that when we came to town to look for homes, she had already weeded through any enviable options.
She listened carefully to all of our needs, and showed us exactly what we were looking for. Maxine really helped us make a
smooth transition.- Courtney and Rich Fahn |

We received Maxine’s name from a friend of ours and even during the first interview, we knew we found the
right person for the job. Maxine was a joy to work with. Not only is she very knowledgeable and experienced,
but she also watched out for us and kept our best interest in mind. We conducted an extremely thorough house search,
visiting some houses three of four times and not once did Maxine pressure us to do something that we were not ready to
do. In fact, our decision was all but made when we received a call form Maxine telling us about a home that was not
yet even on the market, but that we could see if we so desired. In the end, it was this house that we ended up
purchasing. In addition to her dedication, professionalism, and responsiveness, she is also a lot of fun to work
with. Bottom line – You’re crazy not to work with her.- Eric A. Pockross

If you need help with financing, I will recommend qualified local lenders with a great track record.
There will be no paperwork surprises, I will make sure you understand what you are signing.
I will use every resource to find you the best property including using the Multiple Listing Service, Internet and my local
contacts based on a lifetime of living on the North Shore and contacts in the real estate community.
| Throughout the eight months of working with Maxine, she really took the time to get to know
us as a client. She was happy to advise us through her own experience but was flexible to listen to our own
opinion. Maxine is a unique individual and certainly not your typical agent. Maxine really does listen and never
pushes the client outside of their comfort zone and treats you as you’re one of the family. Her negotiation skills are
top notch as is her ability to multitask. We are very thankful to have worked with her. |
When it is time to negotiate, I will aggressively represent you to get you the best possible deal.
I will follow up on every detail of your transaction.
You can count on me to keep you informed from start to finish.
If you need recommendations for service providers including lawyers, building inspectors and tradespeople. I'll be glad to
recommend people who are good at what they do and have an excellent track record. See my Recommendation

With two children in tow and a decade of city living, we made the huge lifestyle decision to move to the
suburbs. We were nervous about what neighborhood was the best fit for our young family. Maxine's guidance and
support became the most vital part of our search for a new home. She spent dozens of hours touring us through the
various neighborhoods and homes that perked our interest, hand holding a young couple for months before we came to any
conclusions that would lead to buying a home. Ultimately Maxine helped us focus our efforts on what was really
important to us in this important decision. We found the perfect house for our family, and could not be
happier! Maxine's guiding influence was critical to an easy transition to our new home and lifestyle, for which we
are extremely grateful!"
