ZillowVERIFIEDBentleys Real Estate is professional, efficient, and knowledgeable from the people working behind the scenes to Robert Bentley himself, who worked tirelessly on our behalf to sell our home. Their expertise and responsiveness are second to none.

ZillowVERIFIEDRobert and his team are the most professional group of people Ive ever worked with in any capacity. Robert answered all my questions clearly and concisely within minutes. This group knows the greater Newburyport area better than anyone. Ann, the transaction coordinator, helped me tremendously during the closing process with regard to documents needed by the attorney. As far as Im concerned, they are the only game in town. I wish the worked in the area I moved to.

ZillowVERIFIEDI wound up with Luisa Pereira as my agent through a stroke of incredibly good fortune after contacting Bentley?s to put my house on the market. Not only is she an expert in her field, she is a genuinely kind and lovely person. From the get-go, she helped quell my anxieties as a first time seller and explained her solid plan for getting my house sold. She generated so much interest in my property that I wound up with 9 offers and ultimately, I accepted my ?dream situation? offer. I doubt that I would have wound up with so many great offers without her expert recommendations and game plan. She is so on-top of everything - I never once felt anxious or unsure as I knew I was in good hands (the best!). Luisa brings so much to the table as a realtor and I can not recommend her enough! She truly is a gem - both as a realtor and person!

ZillowVERIFIEDAfter two years of renting in Newburyport, MA, we began the search for a home to purchase and chose Alissa Christie at Bentley. Alissa listened to what we were looking for and found us the perfect new home. There were a few stressful moments during the negotiation process which Alissa expertly guided us through to success. We could not have done it without her negotiation and knowledge of the market and of real estate law. Thank you Alissa!.

ZillowVERIFIEDShe was the best realtor I have ever worked with. I told here what I was looking for and she found me exactly that. She was easy to work with threw the purchasing process. Quick with getting all the paperwork and always answered her phone with all the answers. I would definitely use her again and recommend her to anyone looking to buy or even sell.

ZillowVERIFIEDRobert knows the market very well, what is coming on and the pricing. Most knowledgeable realtor in the area. He sold my house and also got us in to make an offer on a great home just as it hit the market.

ZillowVERIFIEDIn 2014 I interviewed and hired Robert to appraise, list and sell my home. It was a unique property in that it was 4-5 br 3.5 bath.My experience with Robert was excellent, everything he said came to be. When we got to the point that we had an offer, I was dealing with an associate of Roberts through the negotiations and then the entire closing. Her name was Anne Boileau, and she was FANTASTIC! I would absolutely recommend Robert Bently and his team to anyone.

ZillowVERIFIEDI am not going to engage in an email battle with you Mr Bentley. I used the rating system to say what I thought and I am sorry if that bruised your ego in some way. It is no different than rating a restaurant on Yelp. I had a poor experience with you and wanted to make that known to others. I am curious how you state that you have 17 years experience but you have been in business for 6 years. You seem to be quite defensive when I criticized you. As I previously stated...you are in sales and not everyone will like you. That is just reality. Regards UPDATE TO MR BENTLEYS RESPONSE... I truly wish that were the case Mr Bentley but it is not and I am sorry that is what you think. I feel that just adds to your arrogance that you honestly think that you please 100% of the people that you deal with. My experience with you was more than unpleasant as were some of my friends in the area that had the misfortune of coming across you at a showing when they were looking. I can assure you that I am not another agent. We sold our home and purchased a new one in the area. The only time that I feel was wasted was that spent dealing with you. I am only thankful that it was a short time. It was bad enough that I felt the need to write a review. Regards I would not deal with him after meeting him. Arrogant and far too pushy. He seems to think that he is the only realtor in the town of Newburyport also. I get the idea that other realtors do not like dealing with him either. Experience was unpleasant enough that I feel compelled to send in a review. I have no idea whether this will even make it to the site though. Good luck if you are or have to deal with him!

ZillowVERIFIEDRobert always gives you 100 percent. We could not have sold our house without him. It amazes us how quickly he responds to our numerous daily emails as we search for our next home. Because of his impeccable work ethic...he makes buying or selling your home happen with the greatest of ease (Even when the stress seems too much).

ZillowVERIFIEDRobert did an excellent job helping us sell our house. We had a solid offer on our house within a week of putting it on the market. Roberts online/web presence really brought in qualified buyers. Not only did the house sell in a week, but it sold in the month of December, which many say is not an ideal time to put your house on the market. Robert provided us with insight on how to stage our house, and answered any questions we had along the way. If you are looking to sell your house, I would highly recommend Robert.

ZillowVERIFIEDRobert handled every aspect of our house sale in a gentlemanly way. We had a unique home that required a certain type of family. Robert was patient and kind with us during difficult family situations. I will always be grateful to the way Robert managed it all. He was very professional and understanding.

ZillowVERIFIEDPrior to Robert, we had 2 other agents that could not get the job done. Roberts ability to stay focused on the task at hand is what got our house sold.I would recommend Robert to anyone, most likely aI will be using him again for my next house.

ZillowVERIFIEDRobert helped me by my first home back in 2009. I couldnt have asked for a better agent. He stuck with me through the process every step of the way to ensure the house I was purchasing was a place I could call home. I would reccomend Robert to any first time buyers and even people looking to upgrade or down size their current properties. He will work for you through the end and will help you with every step of the process

ZillowVERIFIEDWe began the process of finding a home on the North Shore in April of 2010. The most difficult variable in the process was selling our house in Vermont. This took us quite some time (tough market). Robert stayed with us through the whole process, showing homes over @8months till we finall sold our house. Then, it was just a matter of another month till we made an offer on our new home in Ipswich. Roberts work ethic and patience, combined with his expertise and professionalism made an emotional, frustrating experience much easier to get through. I would recommend utilizing his service without second thought.

ZillowVERIFIEDHonest, resourceful, and hardworking, Robert will earn your respect with his patience, attention to detail, negotiating skills, and concern that you find the property that suits you. Successful enough and ethical, he doesnt need to sell you a property that wont meet your own particular needs.

ZillowVERIFIEDMy husband & I were first time home buyers...very green, nervous, excited and anxious. Looking back on our experience we are so grateful that Robert Bentley was our Realtor. He helped us with all of our questions, put our mind at ease and made the entire process of buying our first home manageable and memorable. We would not hesitate to recommend Robert to anyone!

ZillowVERIFIEDRobert Bentley helped my husband and I purchase the new home we are building. He pursued our interests, was straightforward about our options, and has helped to make the process smooth and enjoyable. Robert has been attentive to a variety of issues that inevitably come up as a house is built, and I am consistently grateful he is representing us. This is my first experience buying a house, and Robert has taken every single one of my questions seriously. He is also well organized whenever we meet, which inspires my confidence that he takes care in the details of our transactions. He also has a good sense of humor, and it is a pleasure to do business with him.Robert will be listing our current home this spring, and I am looking forward to continuing our working relationship.I would enthusiastically recommend Robert to anyone looking to buy or sell a home.

ZillowVERIFIEDRobert arranged a leisurely tour of eight homes we wanted to see in one afternoon. He repeatedly arranged visits to our final choice He negotiated for us the purchase of our new home and was in attendance guiding us through each step in the complicated process He consistently presented himself with good humor and aplomb and was available to us for all our questions. Robert Bentley proved to be more than we had expected of a real estate agent.

Review for Member: Robert Bentley
ZillowVERIFIEDLets start with the fact that hes a nice guy. You have to like the person youre working with and Robert is a genuinely nice human being.He listened to what both my wife and I wanted in a home and he showed us homes that had the features and locations we were interested in. It didnt take us long to find the home and location that we had been looking for years.Then, as our buyers agent, he took us out of the always uncomfortable position of negotiating hard with the builder. He saved us nearly $60,000 off the original building quote by getting us the special features we desired included in our offer and for less than original asking price.I cant say enough about Robert.He is now listing our townhome so that he can now be our sellers agent.Ive come to think of Robert as a friend and I know that hell act in our best interest at every turn.

ZillowVERIFIEDI would highly recommend Robert. My house was listed with another agent, prior to switching to ReMax. For 6 months, the house was shown only 10 times and had no offers. After switching to Robert, he showed my house 4 timed, the first month and a half and convinced all of them to make an offer. My house was sold in 2 months. Robert is very aggressive and is very dedicated to selling your home. He has a very good method of advertising your home so people know exactly what to expect when seeing it. I would recommend highering Robert to sell any home. A++
