Eric Gould

Born and raised in Massachusetts, Eric Gould brings a local’s expertise to his work with Compass, combining more than 20 years of experience with an exhaustive knowledge of the market informed by his deep roots in the Boston area. Thanks in part to his refreshingly honest, hands-on approach, he is uniquely skilled at identifying and addressing obstacles in the buying and selling process before they become problems for his clients.

Fueled by a genuine passion for real estate and a deep-seated belief that everyone deserves a happy, secure, and comfortable home, he relishes the process of helping people find a living space that perfectly fits their needs—from the location down to the layout. He is honest and direct with his feedback, even—and especially—when the answer isn’t what someone might want to hear and will work with his clients as long as necessary to get the job done.

He prides himself on being a clear and effective communicator, versatile enough to work with all personality types and adept at guiding them through the emotional ups and downs of the process as smoothly, seamlessly, and stress-free as possible.

His goal is always to get the best deal for buyers, and the best price and terms for sellers. While his primary focus is on residential sales in Boston and the surrounding suburbs, he has worked with clients as far out as West Newbury, Sandwich, and Berlin, while calling Dorchester his home for the better part of 30 years.

An active member of the community, he is a frequent volunteer at local no-kill animal shelters and has rescued several animals himself. In his free time, he enjoys cycling, hiking, cooking, and throwing dinner parties with his husband.
