ZillowVERIFIEDChoosing Joanne as our buyer's agent turned out to be literally one of the best decisions we've ever made in life. We worked with her for almost a year to find our dream house, and we are living in it right now, thanks to her. She is very rare among real estate agents in putting her clients' interests first, never being the least bit pushy, totally patient, always conscious of our specific needs and budget. She is incredibly knowledgeable in evaluating properties--she's almost like an home inspector--which was invaluable for us. She is a person of real integrity whom you can trust to help you with a major life decision. She knows the market extremely well and told us about the dream property we ended up buying, which was outside of the area where we had been looking, but we could not possibly be happier with it. She is beyond amazing. (We had relatively little contact with Tom, who seemed extremely lovely as well.)

ZillowVERIFIEDWe are so glad we worked with Joanne and Tom to buy our house. As nervous first-time homebuyers in a tricky market, with interest rates rising throughout our search, their recommendations, advice, and support were invaluable. From our first call with Joanne, it was clear that we wanted to work with her. She is knowledgable and patient, and thoroughly answered all of our (many) questions about the process, the market, our options, and the houses we saw. When it came time to make an offer, she did an amazing job guiding us to make a competitive offer that fit the market conditions perfectly. It was great to have a team supporting us; we worked primarily with Joanne, but Tom was there for whenever we needed when she was unavailable.

ZillowVERIFIEDI was extremely anxious and overwhelmed by my move out of state, from a home I had lived in for 25 yrs. Tom was so calm and supportive, and very knowledgeable about the market. He was very responsive to all of my questions and concerns. Everything went according to the timeline we set and my home sold for 10 K over asking price; it was on the market for 6 days. I would highly recommend the Tom and Joanne team for someone seeking a realtor with many years of experience and commitment to providing excellent service

ZillowVERIFIEDTom and Joanne were incredibly helpful in buying a home during the pandemic housing mania. We were moving cross-country, and they took the time to meet with us via Zoom initially, then spent some time with us when we were visiting prior to our move to show us houses in the towns we were interested in to get a feel for what we liked and didn't like. They maintained continuous contact with us in between our visit and our actual move, and even went with our parents to see some houses that we couldn't see in person because we were out of state. After we moved, they spent several months seeing many houses with us, helping us stay in our budget, and keeping our morale up when several offers weren't accepted. We finally closed this summer, and are super happy with our purchase. We cannot recommend Tom and Joanne enough.

ZillowVERIFIEDTom and Joanne are amazing. We have bought and sold multiple houses and the experience with Tom and Joanne was exceptional. They provide full service, are always approachable, and have a very deep understanding of the market. Negotiation skills are great as well, so if you need someone you can trust, Tom and Joanne are the perfect choice.

ZillowVERIFIEDJoanne was wonderful to work with and guided me through every step of the process. I knew what was going to happen at each stage of the selling process ahead of time, so there were not any surprises or things that I had to rush and do to prepare. She is extremely professional and also very personable and reassuring. I had a good feeling about working with Tom and Joanne right away and had received a glowing recommendation from a friend. I am glad that I took that recommendation because I could not be happier with how the sale of my home turned out.

ZillowVERIFIEDThe Tom and Joanne Team were referred to me by a friend and neighbor who had worked with them in the past on selling and buying homes. From the first meeting with Tom Matthews, I was impressed with his knowledge and professionalism!!! My home sold above asking within 36 hours of listing and closed early and was a townhouse that sold for more than any other townhouse in the neighborhood ever. Most of all, the guidance provided by the Tom and Joanne team during the process was amazing. I received a weekly check in with updates and next steps as well as suggestions on approaching contacts for documents and information. Whenever I had a question, the responsiveness was phenomenal. I was so impressed. During this life changing event, I did not need to stress as Tom was there all along the way. I highly recommend the Tom and Joanne team for your real estate needs. They go above and beyond and are attentive to all details. Their excellent communication was beyond all expectations.

ZillowVERIFIEDThe Tom and Joanne Team handled our real estate transaction with the utmost in professionalism, courtesy and care. During very challenging COVID-19 listing and showing conditions, they helped us to successfully navigate the turbulent landscape to arrive at a result that far surpassed our expectations. Two of the hardest working people we have encountered, they were tireless in ensuring that we had the result we were looking for. We would highly recommend Tom and Joanne to anyone looking for a real estate team that cares greatly about the customer's complete experience.

ZillowVERIFIEDTom and Joanne were exceptional to work with from the first meeting all the way through to the closing, especially as we were first time home buyers. At the initial meeting, Tom and Joanne did a great, detailed job reviewing the markets we should target and our expectations for each market. They gave us wise advice as we started our journey. Once we narrowed down our focus and identified homes we were interested in, they were available on a moment's notice to assist (within minutes). When we found our perfect home, Tom helped us put in an attractive offer and through his expertise he helped our first offer get accepted! Throughout the contract period Tom suggested great consultants to use, checked in regularly, and was on top of any little thing that may have come up. We could not recommend them enough and we will absolutely use them again in the future!

ZillowVERIFIEDWe have been working with Joanne and Tom for over 10 years, and would highly recommend them to anyone looking for reliable, knowledgeable agents. When we bought our first home in 2009 we had no idea what we were doing! Joanne walked us through every step of the process, down to recommending a mover. She was a true advisor invested in our success as first time home buyers, not just her commission. When we had an opportunity to buy a new home this year, Joanne was the first call we made. Especially in these uncertain times of Covid-19, her expertise was invaluable. She helped us find the right lender, made sure we had all our bases covered with timing and remote closing, and even referred a contractor through her network. Joanne and Tom truly have their client's best interest at heart and take the anxiety out of the home buying process!

ZillowVERIFIEDThe Tom and Joanne team found us our dream home! They made the stresses of relocating to a new state a breeze - even amid the challenges and chaos of a global pandemic. From the outset, they very quickly understood what was important to us in a new home and guided us patiently in visits to towns and homes that met our criteria and gave us valuable insights into a range of options. They are truly a team and worked together seamlessly to ensure our needs and questions were covered at all times. Their local knowledge of specific neighborhoods, schools and shops along with practical advice about living in the area was invaluable (especially as we moved from apartment-living in a big city to a larger home in a small town). Once we had found our perfect home, they guided us throughout the process from initial offer to final closing and beyond, always making sure we were focused on the important items. They were always quick to respond and were available 24/7 via email, text or phone to help with questions big or small. This was particularly helpful as the pandemic-related restrictions and distractions kicked in. We would highly recommend the Tom and Joanne Team to anyone looking for a new home!

ZillowVERIFIEDTom Matthews and Joanne Taranto are hands-down the best realtors you could ever hope to work with. They were incredible to work with through every step of the process. We had never sold a home before, so the whole process was really intimidating to us. Tom and Joanne helped us to understand exactly what needed to be done and they were so supportive throughoutA the process, doing a great job of both guiding and listening. We put our house on the market just as COVID-19 shut everything down, but Tom and Joanne were still able to get us nine offers(!) and we sold for nearly 10% over the asking price. They went above and beyond to help us navigate the transaction in spite of all the obstacles, checking-in with us regularly and guiding us a perfect resolution. Thank you Tom and Joanne!!

ZillowVERIFIEDTom and Joanne were exceptionally helpful in helping me purchase my first home. They were both extremely accommodating and responsive to our personal style of house-hunting, communication, and tastes/needs in a home. When we found a home, Tom went above and beyond in putting us at ease and walking us through the process in an understandable but comprehensive way. Tom consistently provides candid advice, and strictly avoids pushing you towards a purchase you may regret. It is impossible to imagine having gone through the home buying process without these two. I would recommend them unreservedly to anyone purchasing their first or fifth home.

ZillowVERIFIEDMy wife and I would not hesitate to recommend Tom and Joanne to anyone looking to buy or sell a home. Tom worked closely with us for more than a year, and looked at dozens of properties with us before we ultimately found the right home for our family. Tom listened to what we were looking for in a home, but was also willing to bring us back to reality when what we wanted didn't align with what was available in the market, or our budget. Tom and Joanne know the market, they know the Concord area, and they advocate for their clients; which is what you should look for when choosing a Realtor.

They made the experience easy and allowed me to feel comfortable and confident in my home search. They both were very accessible and accommodating, answering any questions I had and directing me to additional resources when needed. Every referral they gave me (i.e insurance, inspector, attorney) were all spot on and so professional. I will definitely use them again in the future. I would encourage anyone looking to buy or sell a home to use Tom and Joanne!

ZillowVERIFIEDBoth Tom & Joanne were a pleasure to work with. My husband and I were first time home buyers and we consider ourselves lucky to have had this team in our corner. We worked mostly with Tom, who is experienced, knowledgeable, motivated, considerate, and confident. All great traits to see in your realtor. He listened to us, answered all of our questions, and made himself available for any all private showings we wanted. He would get in the corners of the house with his phone flashlight, point out things that concerned him or that were fully depreciated, educated us on things he knew we were naive about, and never pushed us to make a decision. In fact, on a few occasions he told us to be patient - to wait for the Fall market knowing we would find the perfect house in our price range. He negotiated for us, got us closing credits we didn't even know we deserved. When we settled on a closing date, we were concerned to find out Tom would be out of town on vacation. As it turned out, we had nothing to worry about. Joanne was happy to jump in and help us. These two work as 1 unit, and it was all very seamless. This is a huge asset to their clients. When the time comes again to buy/sell, we will not hesitate to call Tom & Joanne.

Both agents were quick to understand what we wanted and knew the right place for us. Great experience and would recommend Tom and Joanne to anyone.

ZillowVERIFIEDTom and Joanne were true pros. Soon after we first met, we had a follow up meeting and Joanne was very clear about where our house fell in the marketplace and her detailed analytics proved spot on. They were very positive, realistic and always professional. We sold our house in 3 weeks and they were totally accurate in appraising what we would get for our house. All in all, an excellent experience.

ZillowVERIFIEDTom and Joanne were a great group to work with. From the initial meeting in a coffee house, they both really wanted to not just sell us a house, but learn about us and help us find the perfect home, no matter how long (or quick) it took. We primarily worked with Joanne, but Tom was always available to assist, take calls or answer questions if Joanne was with another client. Joanne, was spectacular helping us through the whole process and meeting us every step of the way at open houses, and helping us figure out what was right for us. She was extremely knowledgeable about what to look for with a home and also what to look out for. (ie: is there a housing development planned for nearby that is not disclosed, etc.) She helped with our negotiations, helping us narrow in on the right amount to offer and then once accepted really helped us figure out what to do and when to do it. As first time buyers that was super helpful and Joanne was so great she was with us for all aspects of the P&S, Inspection, final walk through, and closing!

ZillowVERIFIEDSelling your home is probably one of the toughest things to do. There is so much to take care of, plus you have the added bonus of still having to go to work everyday. Hiring Tom and Joanne made selling our home almost surreal. From the initial consult, their much appreciated candor of how to price the home, to the professional pictures and timing of the open house was exceptional. All my wife and I had to worry about was keeping our house clean during private showings. Tom and Joanne provide you with a comprehensive checklist of what should get done and when to do it. If either of us ever had a question, a call to them was always answered or returned, an email always responded to within a few hours. I wish I could say more about them, but they sold our home too quickly! I would, without hesitation recommend Tom and Joanne to anyone looking to sell or buy a home. Think of them as your best and final investment.

ZillowVERIFIEDTom and Joanne helped us look for homes in the Maynard area in 2016-2017 and were great to work with. We started of our search all over the place, and Tom was very patient as we figured out what type of home was right for us. He had great knowledge of the areas that we were looking in, even steering us clear of the local gun range, and could quickly point out things in the home that might be a concern. Communication was quick and easy and he had a great understanding of the local market conditions. We never once felt pressured. My wife and I were new parents, and in the end decided to refocus our search to be closer to family. I had previously owned a home and had learned the hard way that there are two types of agents out there: there are agents that look for quick sales at the cost of customer service and then there are agents like Tom and Joanne, who are looking to put you in the best possible home for you. That is called putting the customer first and they are smart enough to know that it's the best business model! We chose Tom and Joanne from their great reviews online and we are proud to leave on of our own. Thanks Tom and Joanne!

ZillowVERIFIEDI am so happy and grateful with my experience with the Tom and Joanne Team through the purchase of my first home. Kevin Mara is an extremely responsive, available and knowledgeable realtor. Before he showed me any property he was informed in advance about the property, seeking my best interest. He was excellent evaluating the conditions of the property, and always made good and honest suggestions. The contacts he provided to support each step of the process were a pleasure to work with and less costly than the alternatives I had explored. He was excellent during the negotiation process, and worked hard to get me the best possible deal. Kevin made it easy and followed through on everything right to the closing. I strongly recommend him and will absolutely use him again for my next home purchase. Thanks Kevin and the Tom and Joanne team!

ZillowVERIFIEDThe Tom and Joanne Team helped me recently buy a 2 bedroom condo. Kevin Mara was my buyer's agent and he was there with me every step of the way during our months of working together to find my home. He made sure I understood the process before we even began looking at properties in my price range. His attention to detail and knowledge of homes really helped me know what to look for and to avoid. If I asked him a question he didn't know the answer to, he said so and researched the answer. I so appreciate him and I felt I was in such capable hands. Working with any member of the Tom and Joanne Team means you will be well taken care of and find the home of your dreams. They are true professionals and go the extra mile for you.

ZillowVERIFIEDJoanne was very unprofessional in review of our home suggesting ridiculous things like filling in our swimming pool, replacing all furniture with "modern" pieces, replacing a 3 year old furnace etc. etc. She then wanted us to list our house at $40k less than three other houses that sold on our street. A very pushy agent that would not listen us and her way was the only way.....very much my way or the high way.... I would not recommend anyone to sell their house thru Joanne.

ZillowVERIFIEDWe were referred to the Tom and Joanne team by a friend and I could not have been happier. I do not trust people easily and always expect people to have ulterior motives, however there was none of that when working with our fabulous real estate agent, Kevin Mara. My fiance and I began our house search back in December and were very skeptical, overwhelmed and naive. As first time home buyers we had no idea what to expect and had many questions. Working with Kevin over the past 8 months made us more knowledgable and made the home buying process enjoyable. He is so well versed in all parts of the home buying process from construction to location, rules and regulations, the list goes on. Every question we had for him he was able to answer with a plethora of knowledge and advise and if on the off chance he didn't know something he was going to find out and get back to us. He was always available whether it be through email, text messaging or phone call. I have never experienced better client contact. Over the 8 months that we spent with Kevin he became more than just our realtor, he became a friend. He was honest about the condition of the homes, the value and his past experience. Not once were we ever pressured into buying something we weren't sure about and even after walking away from a house after the home inspection he completely understood and fully supported us. I appreciated his honesty, his patience and his overall positive attitude. Each day he met us with a smile on his face and enthusiasm that made our experience so enjoyable. He was always very professional while also maintaining a personal and friendly relationship. We will be highly recommending him to our friends and family and will absolutely use him in the future when we are ready to make the move from a condo to a house.

ZillowVERIFIEDKevin Mara is by far the best agent we have had the pleasure of working with. We looked at many realestate companies and agents before choosing Kevin Mara of the Tom and Joanne Team. Not only did he have the most knowledge, but he made it clear through his actions that he would do whatever it took to find us our perfect home, and he certainly did. We worked with Kevin for over nine months, and never once did Kevin make us feel rushed or pressured to put an offer in on a home we weren't totally in love with. He was patient and remembered everything we wanted, and we never had to tell him anything twice. He got to know my husband and I quite well, as well as our four year-old daughter who called Kevin "the guy who knows everything!" He really does. He was always patient with her (she came to visit all of the probably 100 homes he took us to), and his knowledge of the entire homebuying process was unmatched. Kevin literally knows everything from construction to who to call for plumbing to tax rebates through mass save to how to make the best offer on your perfect home. When there were times my husband and I wanted to settle, Kevin did not allow us to do so. When we found ourselves in a bidding war, Kevin remained so calm, and he even called us telling us we should lower our offer because he thought we were offering too much!!! I've never heard of a realtor looking out for his clients before himself like that. He wanted us to get the house for the best possible price - he is so honest, smart, and incredibly knowledgable! He taught us so much about the process that we have sung his praises to all of our friends and family and pretty much anyone who would listen. Kevin made us feel like he was our ally, and he was, and through the process he became a friend who helped us find our perfect home. We are now settled in to our first home, and we have used his advice to get the best deals through mass save, and we have used his referrals to get the most qualified electrician out to our house for the most reasonable rate around. He is a wealth of knowledge, and we will continue to stay in contact with him, to see how he is doing because he has been a huge part of building our family. We will use Kevin for our future home buying/selling needs without a doubt! We encourage you to do the same if you want to find YOUR perfect home with the PERFECT agent!

ZillowVERIFIEDWe were delighted to work with Joanne Taranto of the Tom and Joanne Team on the recent sale of our house, which sold above our original asking price. After a detailed interview process involving 3 other brokers, some of whom had more experience with the market in our town, we picked Joanne primarily because of her creative marketing strategy. In addition to high-quality photographs, Joanne arranged for a stunning video that showcased the finest aspects of our architect-designed, mid-century modern house, plus a 360-degree aEUR~doll-house walk-through and professional floor plans. Other brokers suggested we list our house at a much lower price, but Joanne believed it was worth more and worked incredibly hard for months to achieve that goal on our behalf. Throughout the stressful process of selling our home (and largest asset), Joanne demonstrated repeatedly her strong intuitive understanding of the needs of the different buyers who looked at the house. She also had a great aEUR~bedside manner with us as sellers and was always willing to provide help above and beyond the call of duty, even tidying our house for an unexpected showing while we were away on vacation. From offer to closing, Joanne was there every step of the way to help us through the inspection, appraisal, fire department certificationaEUR"the entire process. At all times, Joanne maintained the highest standards of ethics and candor, even when working with two would-be buyers toward the culmination of our sale. She handled the negotiations with consummate skill and fairness and produced a final offer above the asking price. Joanne was referred to us by someone we had known for years, who said Joanne has the ability to sell houses that might challenge a less extraordinary broker. We found that to be true in our case. We have already recommended Joanne to friends who are selling their houses. She and Tom are knowledgeable, professional and personable, a dream team we recommend with enthusiasm to anyone wishing to sell (or buy) in the areas they serve.

ZillowVERIFIEDWe had such a great experience working with Kevin from the Tom and Joanne Team. My wife and I are new to the East Coast so we were a little overwhelmed at the thought of not only buying a house, but buying a house in an area we were not familiar with. Kevin was extremely knowledgeable of the area and down to earth. He helped us through the entire process and made it as stress-free as we could have ever imagined. He also promptly responded to every question and concern we had along the way. We hope to work with him again some day.
