We truly couldn't have asked for a better realtor than Billy Abildgaard! As first-time homebuyers, we had so much to learn, and Billy went above and beyond to guide us through the entire process. One of the things we appreciated most was how much he taught us during showings. With his extensive knowledge of homes and real estate, he would explain what he looks for when assessing a property and point out potential concerns we never would have noticed ourselves. His honesty and attention to detail helped us feel confident and informed throughout the entire process. We spent around eight months searching for our home, and Billy was incredibly patient, quick to respond, and flexible with showings the entire time. He never pressured us or made us feel rushed. His expertise was especially valuable during the inspection and negotiation process, where he helped identify concerns and negotiate money off the purchase. Billy is upfront, honest, and genuinely cares about his clients. You never have to question whether he has your best interests at heart. We couldn't be happier with our home and are so thankful he helped us find it. We would recommend him without hesitation, especially to first-time homebuyers!
I truly cant say enough great things about working with him. His expertise in real estate is second to none. He is incredibly knowledgeable, maniacally focused, and exceptionally organized. Nothing gets overlooked, and his attention to detail is unmatched. He helped us both buy and sell our homes during what was an incredibly hectic time in our lives, and I genuinely dont know how we would have managed it all without him. He went above and beyond at every turn, taking on the majority of the heavy lifting and handling things that you would never even expect a real estate agent to take care of. He made an otherwise overwhelming process feel seamless, and we always knew we were in great hands. What really sets him apart is his background as a contractor. That additional level of knowledge is invaluable when buying or selling a home. He notices things most agents wouldnt, offers insight that goes well beyond the transaction itself, and gives his clients a tremendous advantage. One of the things we appreciated most was his ability to explain every step of the process so thoroughly and clearly. He doesnt just tell you what needs to happen; he makes sure you understand why. Hes constantly thinking two or three steps ahead, looking around corners on your behalf, anticipating potential issues before they ever become problems, and considering things that would never even cross your mind. That kind of foresight and attention to detail is invaluable, especially when navigating something as significant as buying or selling a home. His advice is always honest, thoughtful, and incredibly valuable. He is never pushy, never makes you feel rushed, and genuinely has your best interests at heart. You can tell he takes tremendous pride in what he does, and it shows in every aspect of his work. Its rare to find someone who combines this level of expertise, work ethic, and genuine care for his clients. He exceeded our expectations in every possible way, and we couldnt be more grateful for everything he did for us. If youre buying or selling a home, I cant recommend him highly enough. Hes simply in a league of his own.
My partner and I rented from Billy and his team for 7 years and could not say better things. Billy was always responsive when needed, took quick action on any maintenance, and made sure that we continued to have a comfortable living experience during our time in our Watertown unit. In the chaos of the greater-Boston renting market, Billy and team were a dream. Thanks for everything!

Buying my first home with Billy was a pleasure and a great experience. Billy was very accommodating to all my needs, knowledgeable and very responsive. Throughout all the process Billy explained me very well all the details, he provided great responses to all my questions and advised me how to submit a winning offer which helped me a lot being a first time buyer. He also has a great team that he is working with that makes all the closing process go as smooth as possible. I would highly recommend Billy.
We rented an apartment remotely from abroad. It was wonderful working with Billy! The virtual tour, communication with the landlord, and paperwork all went smoothly with Billy, despite the time difference. I would 100% recommend him to future tenants!
As first-time home buyers, we were incredibly lucky to have Billy as our realtor. He and his team kindly and promptly answered our many questions. Billys wealth of knowledge about houses helped us make informed decisions when narrowing down our choices. He has assembled an excellent team, which made each step of the process go very smoothly. In addition, he is also a great negotiator and ensured that we got a deal we were happy with. We highly recommend working with Digital Realty!
Billy was an incredible partner throughout our home buying process. As first time buyers, there was a lot that we needed to learn and Billy helped educate us on what the process would be like, what to expect, what we should prioritize and much more. He was always extremely responsive and professional and helped us tour homes that we were interested in quickly and helped us to eliminate ones that weren't up to our standards. He always asked the right questions at showings and was a true advocate for us as buyers. If you're looking for someone who understands the industry, can connect you with the right people to help with mortgage and closing, all with a positive, professional attitude, Billy is definitely your guy! Thanks so much Billy!

Billy was able to get us in the door as quickly as we needed, and closed even faster. He made the entire process seamless and stress-free. Billy walked us through all of the complicated paperwork and made sure that we knew what was going on every step of the process. He'll definitely be the person we call once we're ready to buy or sell again!
Billy was amazing to work with and helped us find the perfect home for as we transitioned out of the city and into the suburbs. As a first time home-buyer with my partner, there was a lot we did not know going into the home buying process. Billy communicated each step of the process frequently checked-in, and provided us with resources and/or recommendations to get everything done for closing seamlessly. We couldn't have asked for a better realtor!
Billy was extremely helpful in helping me find a place. I was looking for a place near Boston College campus for junior year student housing and had never navigated the housing search process before. Billy was very communicative and explained things to me in a way I could easily understand, which helped alleviate the stress that comes with looking for housing. Other realtors I talked to earlier in my search used underhanded tactics, and it always felt like they were just trying to get a quick sale from us. Billy went out of his way to find my housing group a quality place at a good price, gave us a video tour of the apartment over Google Meets, and really went to bat for us during the lease negotiation to get the terms we wanted. Definitely would recommend him to anyone looking for a place in the Boston area.
I have been working with the office where Billy is employed for many years finding Tenants for my rental properties. Billy is punctual, respectful and polite as was a pleasure to deal with during the process of obtaining tenants. He was diligent and dogged in continuing to show the property during the COVID pandemic and came through with exceptional candidates to rent my property. I would definitely recommend this office and Billy specifically for any person in need of a realtor to assist in finding quality tenants.
Billy helped me and my husband buy our first home during the COVID pandemic. He was very knowledgeable and made the entire process seamless. We ended up in our new home for the holidays! Would recommend to anyone.
Billy helped us research and then close on a land deal. He was VERY responsive. It is doubtful the sellers would have even considered this sale without Billy's assistance in getting all the involved parties together on site to discuss the possibilities.
Working with Billy through our home buying process was a delight. He helped us understand what was feasible in our budget and was a fabulous sounding board through the whole experience. His foundational knowledge on electrical/heating/plumbing was a huge bonus while reviewing our inspection report. I would highly recommend Billy to any family or friend - you will be in great hands!
Billy was very professional and communicative. He responded to emails promptly and was willing to go above and beyond in order to make things easier for us throughout signing our lease.
Billy was a pleasure to work with! He went above and beyond in every aspect of our apartment search. He was extremely professional and responsive to all of our questions. We ended up getting a great unit thanks to Billy's expertise!
I can not recommend Billy highly enough, he is simply the Best. We did not make it easy for Billy... asking for 2+ bed, 1.5+ bath, that allowed pets, had in unit laundry and off-street parking in Boston is not an easy find, never mind tossing in the Covid-19 pandemic that we were in the midst of. Billy found us a handful of different options, sent video tours of the properties and was able to set up *safe* onsite appointments of the two properties we narrowed it down to. While viewing the apartments he had great insight to the pros and cons of each (pointing out the entertainment flow, lighting, living room setup, to name a few). He did not try to persuade us in any direction but gave very helpful insight into each property. Once we chose one, he negotiated the pet fee (without us even asking!) and saved us 50%!! Knowing the property would not last long, he stayed up late the night of the viewing to get all of our paperwork in order and over to the other realtor so they would have everything first thing the next morning. He worked tirelessly to get the deal done quickly and kept us up to date with the progress. Billy was professional, efficient and attentive to all of our needs and got us the apartment of our dreams!! He has become the only realtor I will use gong forward.
I'm moving to Massachusetts from Iowa, which is daunting. Billy has been a vital part in helping my move go smoothly. He was flexible in scheduling a showing so my friend could tour the place for me. Billy was thorough in making sure that my application for the apartment was complete and attractive for the landladies. He has been a valuable resource in preparing me for my move. Billy assisted me in finding all of the utilities options that I would need to set up. He is quick to respond to any questions I may have. He continues to be responsive and make sure I have all the information I need (even after my lease was signed and started April 1). He truly is a full service broker. I would recommend Billy to everyone. He is honest, personable, and truly cares about all of the parties he works with.
Billy was a pleasure to work with, I highly recommend his services. He was flexible and did his best to meet all of what I wanted in finding an apartment.
