We have always had the best experience with Mike and Longwood Residential. Mike has been helping us with our real estate needs for a few years and most recently helped us with the sale of our property. He helped make the entire process easy and stress free. Mike is very knowledgeable, experienced, honest and responds promptly. We highly recommend Mike to anyone in the Boston area and wish we could bring him to our new home state!

I recently worked with Longwood Residential for the sale of my house, and I have to say, Mike was a pleasure to work with! He made this very stressful process feel like a breeze. Im the type of person who worries at the drop of a pinand with this being my first time going through this process I needed all the guidance I could get. Mike was very courteous, professional and knowledgeable; whenever I had a question or concern he was very quick to respond to my texts and emails with all the answers. I hope to not have to sell another house any time soon, but when the time comes Ill be sure

OUTSTANDING!
Mike Tinsley is an outstanding agent who will go the extra mile to get you your dream home! We were buying our house in a seller's market where offers were made even before the open house date. Mike has an excellent understanding of the local market, can quickly read the seller's agent, and can assess if the property is priced properly. He was able to keep us calm and motivated us to wait for the right opportunity. When the opportunity arrived, Mike helped us put together a competitive offer that did not break our budget. The offer was accepted the next day.

As a first time home buyer during a pandemic, Andrew Paterson made this process so easy and seamless. He was extremely responsive and available at all times of the day/week. Being new to this was stressful at the start but he quickly installed comfort in searching for the perfect fit. He is very knowledgeable in the area and reliable on getting any additional info needed. All in all, he quickly sold me on his personality, was engaging, and has a great attitude. I feel fortunate to have his assistance and highly recommend Andrew!

My wife and I just bought our first home, and we were lucky enough to have Andrew as our agent. He has a wonderful way of making you feel like you are his only client. He worked tirelessly to arrange viewings for us, often sacrificing his nights and weekends to suit our schedule. He was also kind enough to set up video tours if we couldn't make it in person. It was great to have Andrew as a resource when it came to the housing market - he knows a lot about the area, having grown up in Boston himself! From offer, to home inspection, to closing, Andrew guided us through every step and connected us

Working with Longwood Residential was very smooth and rewarding. Our needs were always addressed, questions answered, concerns dealt with, always with a deep feeling of ease and comfort. We never felt stressed, nor hesitant about asking and continuously inquiring about everything that came to our mind. They helped us purchase our condo and have been helping us for the past few years in managing rentals.
