Jeff is an excellent detail oriented realtor who works with the clients best interest in mind. I know this from first hand experience having worked with him in the past. If you are looking to purchase a home in Cambridge or the surrounding areas. Give him a call. He is a skilled negotiator and has the support of a top notch office team.

I know Jeff personally and professionally. As an attorney-broker I have referred clients to Jeff. He is a consummate professional-Jeff listens to his clients and understands their needs. He works quickly to find them the perfect property. His architecture background brings a level of creativity that most brokers dont possess-and he helps clients visual possibilities they did not know existed. I highly recommend Jeff.

Jeff was a fantastic realtor. He went out of his way to explain the process and provide advice but was never pushy. I felt very comfortable working with him. When I needed a referral for a real estate lawyer, he had great contacts and again provided a lot of help navigating what was an unfamiliar process to me. I would definitely love to work with him again next time I move.
