We heartily endorse using Gibson/Sotheby’s on Massachusetts Avenue in Arlington. We contacted Sotheby’s due to their outstanding reputation, and immediately decided they were the right agency to work with us. From the beginning of our relationship, their service was far above anything we had experienced. They did not pressure us to use them, and even gave us lots of good advice, before we had signed on the dotted line. Before being listed, we were given extensive written comparisons between our house and others like it that had recently sold in our market. We were carefully guided through the intricacies of putting the house on the market and then selecting from the offers we received. Each decision made concerning the sale of our house was collaborative and fully explained to us. They helped us resolve all issues, no matter how small, involved with the technicalities of the sale, and they very considerate of the deadlines involved with our moving and the coordination of the house being shown. We were treated like royalty, even though our house was extremely humble. Do yourself a favor, and chose Steve McKenna’s Sotheby’s office in Arlington.

Steve McKenna, Tracy Wallace and the Home Advantage team were a dream to work with. They were consummate professionals every step of the way and we knew we were in good hands from start to finish. Steve’s calm demeanor and unassailable market expertise were very welcome in what would otherwise have been a very stressful process, moving into a new house and putting our old house on the market, getting work done on both. Having him in charge took one big concern off our plate. His instincts about timing and pricing in the market proved impeccable. We got many offers after the first showing and immediately got the price we had been looking for. The team had great recommendations for tradespeople to do painting and flooring to prepare for the house for sale, and they staged the home with flair. We own another property in Arlington and would definitely use Steve and the Home Advantage team again when it comes time to sell that property.

Steve is a well prepared and knowledgeable real estate professional. He knows the market well and has a great team behind him that made the selling process an easy one for me. He and his team kept me informed throughout the entire process and even coordinated lots of little projects at the house on my behalf which provided me with peace of mind. I would strongly endorse Steve and his team.

Steve and the team were highly recommended by a number of people including my sister, as they had recently managed the sale of her house.

I lived in my house for over 60 years and had never bought or sold a home before. I moved out of Massachusetts before the sale, and they did an exceptional job explaining both the process/steps in selling and providing a reasonable timeline for this to happen. They kept me informed at every step and responded to my emails and calls in a timely manner with complete responses and great suggestions. They also helped me with recommendations on local resources and services I needed to prepare my home for sale.

I would recommend Steve McKenna & The Home Advantage Team to anyone looking to buy or sell a property.

I highly recommend this team! I am a real estate agent in Manhattan, and I had a client who was looking to sell his home in Arlington. I Googled "Best Arlington Real Estate Agent" and Steve's team was the first to pop up. I gave him a ring and made the referral happen. From that day on I didn't give it thought and had faith that it would be handled with care. Fast forward 5 months, and I get an email saying the transaction was closed and my check is ready! (which I was not expecting). Steve's team got the deal done and let me know the day it was finished. Moral of the Story - they are a group that truly cares, they get the JOB DONE, and are very trustworthy. Don't look any further if you are a buyer or seller in Greater Boston. He is a true businessman.

Steve McKenna and his team have a reputation in the Arlington Market that is second to none. For this reason, it was an easy decision to choose Steve to sell our home we had lived in for over 40 years. All expectations were met or exceeded from our initial meeting to the final sale. The process and communication throughout the sale by Steve and his team was exceptional as was the end result. Steve is the consummate professional and, equally important, displays a level of care and compassion that made a difficult and emotional decision that much easier. Thank you, Steve.

Steve and his team were very helpful in the sale of my house. Initially, Steve prepared a detailed analysis of my house's worth and the current real estate market. He offered service providers for staging and minor house work, and even helped me move a piece of furniture out of my house. His team was easy to work with and kept me informed during the sale process. I was also very pleased with the sale price that I received for my house. I would recommend Steve and his team for your house sale.

- Amy, Seller, Arlington  -  August, 2022

The process of buying and selling real estate is daunting, even after having gone through the process before. Steve and his team are the consummate professionals, skillfully guiding the buyer through the process. Steve and his team are connected to other wonderful professionals, such real estate attorneys and handypersons who bring success to the process. It is hard to put into words how highly esteemed Steve is by my spouse and me. He is hard-working, skillful, and has a sense of humor!

Steve McKenna and his team did a fantastic job selling my house. Steve is easy to work with, very professional, and has excellent judgment as to pricing, marketing and sorting through offers. Staging and pictures were great.
