Coldwell Banker Residential Brokerage : Jonathan DiPietro

The agent Kim Walker Chin didn't do a market analysis of the condo I was selling. She was only interested in her quick commission and nothing else. She lied about the special assessment of the property I was interested to acquire.

I worked with Melissa Crocker to rent a townhouse in Newton and had a wonderful experience. Melissa was very easy to contact over both email and text, and was very clear with her instructions and communication. We were able to identify, view, draft and sign the lease in just 8 days. Melissa is incredibly kind and a pleasure to work with - not like the pushy, impersonal brokers I have worked with before. I have already referred two of my friends to Melissa because she provides amazing services. Glad to have met!

If you're looking for an agency where agents are just interested in their commissions....this is the place for you. I purchased a house through them and had bamboo trees lining my property. Unfortunately, at the time, I wasn't aware of the damage the trees/roots could cause. The trees invaded my property and we had to have our front and back yards totally excavated. Neighbor denied planting them, and does anyone really want to fight this in litigation when it needs to be resolved ASAP?! Well, $50k later, I've been educated! The realtor was well aware of the trees but never warned us. After contacting their regional VP, he listened (sympathetically) and keeps telling me he's very busy, and hasn't provided a response weeks later. This is obviously something their realtors have seen before in my region of southeastern CT. It bothers me that the realtor never brought this up before we bought the house. We could have walked away or at least negotiated the remediation costs from the homeowners asking price (which we paid full amount). They have yet to take any responsibility. It was an unforeseen, tremendous financial burden immediately after we purchased our new home. Unfortunately, this is all in hindsight. Live and learn, I guess. Please choose another realtor and stay far away from Coldwell Banker.
