Home Buyer Testimonials

Client: Chris & Sarah M. "It's clear that Rich Rosa is great at what he does and that he measures success by the number of people he helps along the way. If you're in the market for a new home, we highly recommend that you meet with Rich...you will not be disappointed." Bought: Single-family Home in Haverhill, MA

Client: Arabela & Sam T. "Rich was very responsive to all of our requests and incredibly knowledgeable. We really appreciated all of his advice and guidance. He is the best broker a home buyer could ever wish for. We are so grateful to have had him on our side." Bought: Single-family Home in Andover, MA

Client: Francesca L. & James B. "As a buyer's broker, Dave was our advocate from the search all the way through to the closing. He gave us useful advice and helped us make the right decisions. We couldn't be happier with our first home, and we have Buyers Brokers Only to thank for making the experience worry-free and enjoyable." Bought: Single-family Home in Peabody, MA

Client: Erin T. & Edward S. "David, thank you so much for helping us buy our very first home. As first-time buyers, we were nervous, and glad to have a buyer's broker on our side. You guided us through each step of the process and took care of all the details with knowledge and care. We are so happy in our new home. It is the perfect place for us!" Bought: Condo in Brookline, MA

Client: Tamara A. "I was clueless going into the process of buying a home but needed to move quickly. I worked with Rich Rosa as my buyer's agent. My husband and I knew nothing about buying a home going into this, and Rich patiently explained things, gave advice and constantly answered questions. His advice was always dead-on. Rich exemplifies the definition of professionalism. He was very communicative and was right on top of things throughout the entire process of buying our home. We ... closed ... about 45 days after we began our home search, and Rich really made it happen. I would recommend him to anyone looking to purchase a home." Bought: Single-family Home in Wakefield, MA

Client: Jing D. "Rich, As I am slowly converting this condo into a home, I'd like to take a step back and thank you for being my realtor, lawyer, and all-around home-buying guru. I really appreciate you sticking by me through flooding short sales and a disorganized closing attorney. Your professional and friendly demeanor really made my first-time home-buying experience a pleasant (and fun) one! One aspect I'm particularly impressed by is how great of a team you and Dave are - never skipping a beat! I feel very fortunate to have found Buyers Brokers Only and wouldn't hesitate to recommend BBO to anyone. You really went above and beyond." Bought: Condominium in Boston (Allston), MA

Client: Mark V.. & Laura V. "It was an absolute pleasure to work with Dave and Buyers Brokers Only, LLC. There is absolutely no reason to use anyone else - Dave gave us insightful advice and timely responses to all of our requests. As first-time buyers, it was reassuring to have Dave there at every step of the way, from initial inquiry to after the close. And to top it all off, we didn't pay a dime, since his fees came from the selling agent's commission. It's a win-win for all, and we couldn't have been happier. Thanks!" Bought: Single-family Home in Shrewsbury, MA

Client: Cara M. & Chris M. "David Kres was a monumental help in helping us find our first house. He was always accessible to answer our questions or provide us with assistance in this process." Bought: Single-family Home in Haverhill, MA

Client: Kate M. & Michael M. "Rich is extremely knowledgeable and guided us through several multiple bid situations and a very tight buyer's market in Burlington, MA. In less than a month, he found us the perfect house and successfully navigated a multiple-bid situation on the house we really wanted. He was almost as good as the home inspector at pointing out things about the houses that we never would have noticed. Every person he referred to us for the home inspection, attorney, etc. was professional and worked together to ensure that we had a smooth transaction. We closed a week early with no last-minute issues and are loving our new home. I can't recommend Rich highly enough." Bought: Single-family House in Burlington, MA
