What clients say about this agent....
Laurie was awesome in helping us to sell our home in Wakefield. She developed a terrific marketing strategy and carefully coordinated open houses and showings. She kept us right up to date with progress and was always available to answer any questions or concerns. She is top notch!!!!!!
When people ask me if it's worth it to get a real estate agent I tell them about Laurie. She's helped me buy two houses and sell one. She saved me a bunch of money in a house purchase by pulling out her bag of tricks and executing a perfectly timed negotiation phone call. And she made me a bunch of money by expertly staging my house and following through on all the details. We got way over asking price and were very pleased. Laurie is dependable, professional, and very knowledgeable. Why are you still reading this? Give her a call!
The short version: Stop reading here, pick up your phone, and call or message Laurie right now. The longer version: I could write for an hour about why you should choose Laurie Hunt as your Realtor. Start to finish, we worked with Laurie for about 5 months earlier this year to both sell and buy a home. She is an expert on both sides of the deal. When we met Laurie we didn't know exactly what we wanted other than knowing we needed to move. Laurie knowledgeably and patiently guided us through the process of selling our home in Wakefield while at the same time finding the perfect new home for us, all within a tight timeframe. In this market I cannot overstate the importance of working with a Realtor who knows exactly what she is doing. Laurie has seen it all. If there's something she hasn't seen, she knows exactly what to do. Her recommendations are spot-on. She has top-notch contacts for everything involving home ownership. There's a lot going on in today's very competitive real estate market (in Wakefield and beyond!) and Laurie plays well with others. She has excellent relationships with other Realtors in the market, and we benefited firsthand from this. Laurie works hard, remains calm under pressure, and is accessible when you need her.Beyond all of these great qualities, my favorite thing about Laurie is that she is a truly good person. She is honest, trustworthy, respectful, accessible, and discreet with sensitive informationaEUR"financial or otherwise. She is real. She is a working mom and runs a household of her own. She understands real life! One piece of advice, not directly related to Laurie, but to the process of buying and selling in general. We found it was in our best interest to be as efficient as possible and to make the best use of both our time and Laurie's time when we were working together. We did our own homework and research and felt prepared to make decisions and take action quickly and efficiently. We were always working behind the scenes to keep the process moving forward, including starting to prep our home for sale for months before actually putting it on the market.... because there is always more to do until the showings start!In closing, the process of selling and/or buying a home is very stressful even under the best of circumstances. Laurie Hunt is the experienced Realtor you want by your side to make things run as smoothly as possible. She has our business for life, even though we hope to never move again! In the meantime I'll recommend her to everyone I know.
Laurie has helped my wife and I through two home purchases in Melrose and Wakefield. Laure is absolutely a wonderful agent -- she is responsive, knowledgeable, and genuinely enthusiastic about finding the perfect fit.If you are looking at a property that does not suit your needs, Laurie will be upfront about the reasons that particular house should be crossed off your list. On the other hand, she has a great eye for spotting a diamond in the rough.This is an incredibly challenging market to be a buyer in, and Laurie's ability to instantly lay out the pros and cons of different houses (and different neighborhoods) proved invaluable. I've worked with a couple different agents in the past, and there is a reason why I've stuck with Laurie for two consecutive homes, and any future homes, as well.From looking at possible homes on the MLS, through to the purchase and signing process, Laurie is there for you each step of the way.
Laurie helped me get the highest dollar value for my home. She gave me expert advice when I was in the "thinking about selling" stage and then followed through with expert knowledge of the market, the selling process, negotiations and showings. My house sold in days and there were no surprises. The issues potential buyers had were exactly the ones Laurie predicted which helped me to be prepared. In addition to being highly skilled, Laurie is a warm, caring person who is easy to work with. I highly recommend Laurie Hunt for selling and buying property.
Laurie is very knowledgeable of the area and if not, she will outreach on her own to learn more. For me, she wasnt familiar with the complex I was buying a townhouse in but she knew to ask for the board meeting notes to review to get a better understanding of how the condo associate operates. This was most helpful to me. Laurie helped me sell my home and also with the purchase of my new home. On both counts, she showed her patience and skill during our negotiation process.
Laurie was excellent! As first time home buyers, my wife and I knew very little. Laurie was always very patient and helped answer all of our questions. With the pandemic, Laurie was "stuck" with us for around 9 months and she remained helpful, engaged, and optimistic throughout. We are now in an amazing house and would 100% recommend Laurie!
My wife Ana and I were recommended to Laurie by close friends. She has by far exceeded our expectations! Beginning with the initial meeting where she provided a video outlining the process and pros/cons associated with purchasing a home.She is extremely "friendly" "passionate", "sincere" and available [day or night - any time] every step of the way! It is evident to us that she takes her job seriously by going above-and-beyond and truly enjoys helping everyone involved. She literally eliminated any burden/stress one would expect in purchasing a home and actually made it fun!We were so impressed by her experience, knowledge and kindness we switched our financing option(s) to a local bank that she highly recommended. Not only are they also great to work with, we were able to lower our interest rate by over a half point versus the pre-approval option we received from another bank... while saving considerably on closing cost(s). We initially thought we had a solid financing option in place until we connected with the bank Laurie recommended. They blew us away with their financing option(s)/program(s).Laurie then recommended a local company for our home inspection. No surprise that they were also exceptional and extremely knowledgeable.We then accepted her recommendation of a local law firm for our closing. We are scheduled to close on July 2nd, 2019 and are so excited!Laurie is the epitome of "excellence" with an amazing network of true professionals! We will highly recommend Laurie to our family, friend(s) and anyone who seeks a realtor referral. What a great experience!We gained a great "friend" in the process.We cannot thank you enough Laurie! Sincerely,Ana and Jerry Solar
Laurie is fantastic. She provided expert, patient guidance for us in a very complicated house search, and we ended up with our dream home. She also helped us sell our previous home faster and for more than we expected (I should note that this was in a great sellers' market - she can't change the market, but she will get you the best deal possible for you in whatever market you are in!). She educated us about the process and was our steadfast advocate every step of the way. She is an excellent realtor and just a fabulous human being!Buying and selling a home might be business, but it's highly personal and emotional as well. Laurie has a natural skill at balancing these two components. She was sympathetic and patient when we had to make tough decisions but always kept our eyes on the goal. I wish I would have the chance to work with her again, but thanks to her help, I don't think we'll be moving again for a long time!
As first time home buyers, looking in a very competitive area, my husband and I did a lot of research on the home buying process and did not commit to working with a realtor until we were 100% sure that we found the right one. We are so thankful to have been introduced to Laurie as she exceeded all of our expectations! She is incredibly knowledgeable about the area (we bought in Melrose and she knows a lot about all surrounding communities) and local vendors. Before we started looking at homes together, she sat down with us to really understand what kind of homes we were interested in and walked us through the process step-by-step. When we were looking at houses, she helped us notice pros and cons that were not immediately caught by a first-time home buyers eye. During the offer phase, she offered invaluable information and strategies to make sure we were competitive but not overpaying. From the beginning of the process through closing, she was always a text or phone call away and made sure all of our questions were answered and we felt comfortable with the next thing to tackle. Even after closing, she accompanied me to some post-closing meetings related to the house which was simply above and beyond and she continues to be super helpful and attentive as we prepare to move in to the house. If you are looking to purchase (or sell) I would unequivocally recommend Laurie!
