Why Work With Us?

I've lived in Arlington for over 20 years and owned a few houses in town. My kids have grown up, and it came time to sell "the big house". I wasn't sure what to do, so I called Steve McKenna. Steve and Mark Garbino made the process painless. I could not have asked for more. Their team was very professional and very good. The house looked spectacular for the showing. They made everything easy and explained the process clearly. Mark was there every step of the way. I was impressed and grateful.

Steve McKenna came to us highly recommended, having helped a number of neighbors buy their houses. We needed help selling ours, and we didn't know where to start. We were moving out of state, and hadn't decided where exactly. I would not have blamed him if he'd rolled his eyes, but instead he reassured us that we had plenty of options and could work at our own pace. His long experience in Arlington proved essential, as he always knew what we should do, what we should not do, and who we should call to make various final preparations.

Throughout the process, Steve was always available to answer our questions. A couple of days before closing, after we had left the state, a big nor'easter came through. Steve answered our call to put out our pump to keep the basement dry, for which we were very grateful.

We highly recommend Steve for his experience in Arlington, his knowledge of real estate, his network of contacts, and his ability to remain cool under stress.

Steve McKenna and Mark Garbino were excellent seller representatives for our sale in Arlington. They and their team expertly guided us through the process from organizing the house for showings through pricing, showings, evaluating offers, and the eventual sale.

We had an excellent experience with Steve and his team when selling our Arlington condo. We had previously reached out, and we were given an in-person comprehensive assessment of the value of our property, and even given a recommendation to consider keeping it as an investment property, which we were especially impressed with since that recommendation did not directly benefit their team. When we decided a year later to go forward with selling it, we knew who we’d trust with the job. They have a lot of experience, know the local market well, and gave us sound and honest advice. Their services included staging of the condo, and they handled everything professionally and reliably, and made things so easy for us, especially as we were navigating selling from out of state. No regrets; would use them again if I could!

We recently sold our family home in Arlington after being in that home for 31 years. We raised our 3 children there and were quite nervous about making the move and selling our home that was full of memories and family history.

Steve McKenna & The Home Advantage Team guided us through the process of selling our home and made it much less stressful and more comfortable than we expected.

When we decided to put the house on the market, we met with Steve at our home, where they evaluated our property, discussed options for our sale, and made recommendations to maximize our full potential for our sale price.

Once we committed to selling the property with Steve and his team, they came in, prepared the property for showings, took pictures of the property, and then listed it on the MLS website.

We had very active showings and open houses, and everything was handled by the Home Advantage Team. When it was time to accept offers, Steve explained all offers, potential buyers, and the remainder of the process. We ended up with an offer over asking price and a timeline that worked to our advantage. Steve and his team took the nervousness and concern of selling our house out of our hands and made the process seamless.

I would highly recommend Steve McKenna & The Home Advantage Team at Gibson Sotheby's to anyone selling their property.

We worked with Steve McKenna, Annie Kelly and their team at Gibson Sotheby's for the sale of our home in Arlington and the purchase of a new home in Hudson. We could not have been happier with how both went. They took the time to explain the process, which changed since we purchased our home, talked about how they would advise us each step of the way, reviewed the pros/cons of different timelines, etc. It was all very reassuring. Then came the open house - the staging was phenomenal, the brochure looked great and most importantly attendance was high. When it came time to make an offer on new homes, their advice and guidance helped us make competitive offers. We'd highly recommend working with Steve, Annie and the team at Gibson's.

I don’t think there’s any broker in Arlington who knows the housing market better than Steve McKenna and his team. Because of his broad experience and team of experts, he designed a marketing plan to sell our house tailored to the correct audience. Because of this, we sold our house at the first group of showings.

We bought our house in Arlington from Steve 35 years ago, and he was the one we called when it was time to sell. He is helpful, nice to work with, and available at every turn in the process. You can’t go wrong with Steve McKenna & The Home Advantage Team.

Steve McKenna and Kristen McKenna were great, as was the rest of their team. Very professional and easy to work with. Perhaps most important to me as a seller is that they really understood the market. My condo had multiple offers and sold within a week—for a lot more than I expected. I was really glad I hired them and didn't try to sell it myself as I had considered.
