Real Estate in Great Barrington

“Kate Lascar (of Berkshire Property Agents) is a stellar real estate agent. From the moment she took us on as clients, she was proactive in helping us find our perfect vacation home. She started off by asking us a few simple questions and quickly followed up with a weekend itinerary of showings that exactly fit our needs and preferences (including many listings we didn’t previously find on Zillow). It was a high-yield, organized, and efficient way to see several different properties throughout the Berkshires. At each property, Kate was helpful in pointing out both positives and negatives, and didn’t apply any pressure to submit an offer, despite the fact that it took a large chunk of her time to show us so many properties on Memorial Day Weekend. After our short time together, we found the property we wanted, submitted an offer, negotiated a great final price, and closed in ~6 weeks (again, thanks to her efficiency). In addition, Kate has a knack for design and we’ll be enlisting her services to help us fill the house before we use it. In summary, Kate is knowledgeable, efficient, and extremely approachable. She made buying our second home simple and pain free.“

“Alexis has been engaging and professional since the day we met him. Being new to the area, we took a chance on the Realtor company, and were assigned to Alexis.We were relocating from a different region, so any meetings and/or showings required advance planning. Throughout all, Alexis was patient with the situation. He came to understand what our preferences and needs were, as well as respecting our budget. It was not always easy, as there were a limited number of properties on the market that met our needs, and also our wants, such as finding an older house with some history. But Alexis jumped right in and quickly found what we were looking for.Once we decided to make an offer on a property, Alexis was right there, coaching us and making helpful suggestions. He related extremely well to the seller’s agent, and they both made it easier for us to move forward. He made sure that we did everything we needed to do, -on time– and also was able to offer valuable information on contacts and helpful people (plumbers, etc.) in the area.Finally, Alexis has been willing to stop in and check on our new property, as we prepare for the move in at a distance. Alexis has been so very good to work with, that we now look forward to introducing our families to each other!“

“Thom Garvey was an excellent realtor for us. He worked very hard and looked out for our interests while we were in the process of buying our home. Thom has high energy, corresponded with us frequently and answered all our question promptly. He is very enthusiastic guy and we would use him again as he is very knowledgeable of the real estate market in Berkshire county.“
