What do Clients Say?

Bought and sold a Single Family home in 2023 in Aspinwall hill, Brookline, MA. Amy has been incredible in helping us buy our dream home and selling our beloved condo. We truly could not have gone through this process without her expertise and support. From the start of working with Amy, she internalized our specific needs and desires. She helped us look at a range of houses that fit our criteria, and was always candid in her assessment of the pros and cons. She never tried to “sell” us on a house if the fit wasn’t quite there – it was clear that our satisfaction was her foremost consideration. When we got to deciding on offer prices, Amy was highly analytical and data driven. She pulled together a comprehensive set of comparable transactions, and closely evaluated why each might be similar or different. In some cases, she would provide a sanity check on pricing if she felt the value was not there. And when it became clear that the bidding would be highly competitive, she was transparent about what it would take to be the winning bidder. One of Amy’s key strengths is in the depth of the network she brings to her clients. When we were looking to buy, she got a contractor to engage on very short notice to help us understand the scope and cost of potential construction work. She also put us in touch with mortgage bankers who provided us highly competitive rates. Amy’s organizational skills were on full display when we prepared to sell our condominium. She put together a timeline that covered repainting our unit, updating fixtures, sophisticated staging and the logistics of a partial move. We managed to pull all of this off on a very tight timeline, which was only possible due to Amy’s expert organizational skills, relationships with the various vendors and her close personal involvement in all of the details. Throughout, it has just been a tremendous pleasure to work with Amy. She was always professional, but very engaged on a personal level. She was diplomatic when she needed to be and direct when required. She provided critical moral support and perspective when we felt uncertain or overwhelmed. It has felt like a true partnership and helped us accomplish something we at times did not feel was possible. We could not recommend Amy more highly.

We live in Los Angeles and were looking for a condo in the Brookline area to be near the grandkids. Not being familiar with the area my wife and I needed to find a Boston realtor who specialized in Brookline real estate. Luckily we found an expert in Amy Lipton! Amy was patient and listened to our requirements as they changed during the condo hunting process. In the end we were able to purchase a condo, under asking price, and within a 10 minute walk to the grandkids house. Thank you Amy you are the best!

There are not enough words in this review for me to say how much I recommend working with Amy Lipton. We met Amy when we were interested in a property where she was the selling agent. We did not have an agent at the time, and she helped us through every step of the way, as first time home buyers and first time making an offer. As the seller’s agent, she went out of her way to help explain all the paperwork and even called us late in the evening to tell us the outcome of the bidding war. When we didn’t get that home, we knew Amy would take care of us in finding something even better. She did just that. She texted, called, created excel spreadsheets of properties and even saw properties without us when we were unable to come to Boston from our current home in NYC. Throughout the entire process, she treated us like her family. She listened to our feedback and got the deal done for us. We are forever grateful that we found Amy and that she helped us purchase our first home! After the deal was done she still was sending us contacts for contractors, etc. in the area. We will be working with her on all of our future moves. Thank you Amy!!

Bought and sold a Single Family home in 2020 in Brookline, MA. Having Amy as our real estate agent was one of the best decisions we made, as she helped us through the process of buying a home and selling our old one. She has a great knowledge of the local market, extensive contacts among other realtors, mortgage brokers, and even contractors and tradesmen. She was professional and organized as she led us through the many multiple tasks. More than that, she is very friendly and engaging and I greatly enjoyed getting to know her on a personal level. I absolutely recommend Amy to anyone looking to buy or sell - especially in this challenging market, her expertise will be greatly appreciated.
