I was lucky enough to have Colleen as my realtor. Moving to a new place is very stressful, but Colleen did a great job of streamlining the process. She was kind, thoughtful, hard working, well connected, and kept our interests in mind. We felt like we had someone looking out for us. We would definitely recommend Colleen to everyone!

Colleen Kelly’s years of experience and success in corporate sales, coaching and real estate made her the perfect buyer’s agent for our complicated real estate transaction. After seriously considering several less than ideal homes, Colleen found one that had everything we wanted — a modern, well constructed and maintained home with a nice backyard and a pool. At the open house we cautiously fell in love with the house, recognizing by the number in attendance that purchasing the home would likely be a competitive bidding process. Determined to give us the best chance of being the winning bidder, Colleen worked with us right after the Open House to compile all the documents necessary for a competitive bid which was submitted five hours latter that evening.

However complications arose in the coming days including higher offers. Nevertheless, Colleen kept us front and center in the sellers’ mind making compelling arguments as to why working with her and her buyers would provide a better outcome for all involved. In the process, Colleen demonstrated her unique blend of patience, persistence, negotiating skills and relationship building experience over the 11 weeks she spent closing the deal for us. The result: Colleen minimized our stress by handling the most stressful elements of the transaction herself and delivered us the home of our dreams. When we were discouraged, she was not. Instead she bolstered our confidence, overcame numerous obstacles, and constantly went above and beyond. We are so grateful for everything Colleen did for us and our family.

I met Colleen at one of her open house events. I clicked with her while talking about the property. I was not in a position to make an offer at that time as my relocation was not set until the start of the following year. Colleen followed up with me later that year and I was ready to buy then so I worked with her. Based on my opinions of the first showing, I knew she understood what I wanted. Searching for homes while living out of state is challenging, but Colleen made it easy. She coordinated a very full weekend of viewing properties for me during a visit to Boston and found my dream home. She al; stood with me through a difficult closing that took almost 8 months, not fault of Colleen's but due to the manipulative tenants who were occupying the home. She kept me sane through the worse of it. I’m very grateful to her for all the work she did for me so I could get my Boston dream home.

Professional. Ethical. Knowledgeable. These are all the qualities that describe Colleen Kelly so well. But the best is empathetic. Colleen knows that buying or selling one’s home is among life’s most important decisions and can be among its most stressful processes. For her clients, she brings to that process a deep understanding of the issues involved, an amazing ability to de-stress them, by going the extra mile to address them herself, and strong advocacy to obtain the outcomes they desire.

If you’ve used a real estate agent in the past that made you wonder why you bothered, do yourself a favor and reach out to Colleen. If you’ve never used a real estate agent, even better; avoid mediocrity and call Colleen. Or if you just want to know what a difference a Realtor can make in your life, yes, engage Colleen. She loves having not just a happy client, but one who is thrilled by the outcome. How do I know? I am a Realtor as well and I’ve marveled at her ability to consistently live up to her slogan: exceptional service without exception.

Colleen Kelly is a very thorough, efficient, passionate, ambitious, and professional real estate agent. She always maintains that her client's interests and overall well-being are her top priorities. She is very knowledgeable and insightful as well. If you have any questions, she makes sure to thoroughly explain any detail throughout the process of either buying or selling to make sure everyone is in understanding. We decided to sell our house with Colleen for these reasons and more. She made the process of selling, which should be considered a 'stressful' situation, as SEAMLESS as possible. That would not have been possible without her by our sides. With that being said, We put our property on the market and we received multiple bids. We received an offer within 5 days of the house being on the market. We ultimately received a significantly higher offer than asking price. We highly recommend working with Colleen Kelly.

I would highly recommend Colleen Kelly to handle your home purchase or sale endeavors. She is the consummate professional while also remaining very personable and relatable. She makes it her mission to research the markets and provide you with the most informed consultation as she guides you through the process. Her attention to detail, market expertise and willingness to “go the distance” with and for you, guarantee a successful outcome.

Colleen is dynamite!
We chose to have Colleen as our real estate agent when we wanted to purchase a home in 2016.
Good choice on our part!
We couldn't have been more pleased and impressed by her expertise, support and genuine desire for us to find the right home. When it came down to making the offer, she was emotionally supportive, encouraging and focused sharply on the goal.

We can't say enough positive things about Colleen!

Thanks again.

I have had the privilege of working with Colleen Kelly for many years now. As a closing attorney, I work very closely with Colleen to provide our clients with a smooth closing process. She is a delight to work and goes above and beyond for her clients. She is the consummate professional and brings an expertise and savvy to each transaction that benefits her clients and the whole team tremendously. Responsible and diligent, Colleen is realtor you can trust and you can count on. I recommend her emphatically to any prospective Buyers and Sellers looking for a quality realtor relationship.

From the moment I met Colleen I knew I was in good hands. With just over a week to prepare my condo for showing, she provided excellent suggestions to get the property ready for showing. To this end, she negotiated with contractors on my behalf, and oversaw the work being done while I was able to go to my own place of work with peace of mind. Colleen is very personable and totally professional. My condo sold the first weekend it was on the market and the whole experience of selling and purchasing, which can be an anxious time, was made easy by Colleen's calm and friendly demeanor, lovely personality, and strict attention to detail.

My husband and I have been through 16 different real estate transactions over the years and working with Colleen was amazing. We've never seen an agent work so hard for her clients. She thinks of every detail and provides the necessary information to sellers to be ready for a sale as well as the closing. She was available at night and on the weekends, for questions. She volunteered little things for the house to make the staging perfect. Most importantly, she has a network of contractors for painting, plumbing, etc. who were responsive, reliable and super helpful. With her knowledge and experience, she made us feel comfortable through the process and we ended up with a better than expected result. Would recommend to relatives and friends and anyone, in a heart beat! Thank you Colleen!

Colleen Kelly was right there for me from the moment I decided to buy my home. She had my back throughout the process. People told me that buying a home would be stressful. Not my experience at all with Colleen. If you Colleen helped me get my prayers answered. She listened to me, what I wanted, answered all my questions, and walked me through it all! If you are doing any real estate transaction, look no further for a realtor, go with Colleen.

We all know that the Boston Symphony has some fantastic conductors, however, Colleen Kelly is the Maestro Extraordinaire of Real Estate. Her work with, and for us, was exemplary. We first met Colleen at an Open House that we attended, as we were contemplating a move back to Boston. She immediately impressed us with her friendly and engaging manner, knowledge of the property in the area that we were interested in, and her interest in listening about what we were looking for. After attending the Open House, we agreed that Colleen was the real estate agent that we wanted to work with, we wanted her on our team. We had our first meeting with Colleen in her Newton Office; her enthusiasm and interest in working with us to find our new home was beyond compare. She spent a lot of time getting to know us, talking about what we wanted in terms of a new home and talking about the move back to Boston; she wanted to get to know us so that she could try to find the perfect match for our home.
Colleen is an extremely energetic and positive individual, who worked tirelessly for us from start to finish. We quickly found a property that we really wanted and Colleen walked us through the the initial offer and purchase and sale like a real pro. She seamlessly walked us through the entire buying process in a very calm and methodical manner. She made what could have been a stressful process into a pleasant experience. Colleen was there every step of the way. She has tremendous resources and an extensive referral network; she was able to provide recommendations for home inspectors, plumbers, electricians, etc…..just about anyone you may need, Colleen could provide you with a variety of excellent referrals. In addition, the mortgage company that she recommended and the closing attorney were also exceptional.
Since our move, Colleen has been in touch with us on several occasions; she is a very thoughtful, caring person and an exceptional real estate professional. It is our pleasure to highly recommend Colleen; she is wonderful to work with.

Colleen is everything you could ask for in a real estate agent and then some. She is professional, intelligent and knowledgable about the real estate market. She is very engaging with her clients. She provides great insight and guidance to anyone she works with. You can tell when you first meet Colleen that her clients wants and needs become her top priority when working alongside her. She is very personable and her commitment with her clients is remarkable. Especially being a first time homebuyer, the process of buying a home can be overwhelming to one, but our experience was seamless due to Colleen Kelly. She is very experienced and successful. We had looked at a few homes with a prior agent and were unsuccessful. We had met Colleen a few, short weeks after we had gone to an open house in which she was selling the property and knew she was the one that we wanted to work with on our journey of buying a home. We put in two offers with Colleen, on the second try we were successful. We became homeowners because of Colleen.The house we bought, there were 9 offers on the home which is very competitive to say the least and Colleen made our dreams come true and made it happen for us. It could not have been done without her, that's for sure! Buying our first home meant so much to us and our little family of three. This house was everything we could have imagined and envisioned for our family to grow and make memories. Due to the competitiveness of the market, we did not want to get our hopes up when putting in an offer on our beautiful home to be. Luckily, we stood strong and came out on top with the help of Colleen. Colleen was very responsive with every interaction. She took the time to explain every single detail of the home buying process to us which I thought was very important and showed her good-willed character. She wanted to make sure we understood every step of the journey and she was always patient and caring when things that seemed confusing to us. She never once hesitated to answer all of our questions and concerns. She was very prompt with returning phone calls and emails. We had our offer drawn up, a few hours after the open house. Colleen also helped us with the process of the VA loan since my significant other is a veteran. She gave great recommendations from lawyers to our VA Mortgage representative to movers (all of whom were great to work with as well). All in all, we would recommend Colleen Kelly and I am so happy that we had her apart of our life milestone of buying a home.

If I could, I would give Colleen an “11” on a scale of 1 to 10. I am not gushing; I am just comparing Colleen to other real estate agents I’ve worked with in the past. Colleen represented me in both the sale of my home and the purchase of my condo. Colleen did an excellent job in the marketing and presentation and pricing of my home. And I am extremely pleased with the results. Instead of giving me a task list, she handled most everything herself. She was on top of all the details, meticulous and communicative. The result was to make the whole experience as stress-free as possible. Thanks, Colleen.
