Dana Schaefer

    • We couldn't have asked for better representation than Dana. Dana helped us buy our first condo in 2014 and in early 2020 helped us both to sell our first condo and then buy our new home. Dana is extremely knowledgeable and experienced, particularly in the Cambridge and Somerville real estate markets . What we absolutely loved about Dana is how she always goes above and beyond. We were remote the entire time and she was there for us through the whole process, taking on responsibilities that no realtor normally would from being there for the home inspection, visiting the building planning department on our behalf, and even picking up keys after the close. There was no way we could have done this without her dedicated, persistent, and extremely competent support. What really impressed us was how she was able to pull off the sale process right in the middle of COVID-19 and all of the statewide stay at home orders. She responded promptly to the changing circumstances and ensured that we moved to safe, best practices during the sale process including 3D virtual home tours and self-guided home tours. We were and are very fortunate to have Dana represent us. If we end buying or selling again in the future, we will be sure to return to Dana's exceptional services!

    • Dana is the consummate professional. She helped me assess the market when I was renting my condo two years ago and proceeded to help my fiance and I sell my condo in East Watertown recently. Dana has a creative flair, is savvy with her ideas, and has a good sense of style. She worked with her team to stage my condo, took nicely appointed pictures, and asked for our feedback for the final MLS listing. She listened carefully to our needs and worked directly with my tenant to coordinate showings by appointment due to COVID. After my condo went under agreement, she completely facilitated the process of working with the buyer's broker, her attorney, my attorney and the owners of the other two units on the property. My unit sold within 9 days. After it sold, Dana took the extra step to introduce the new owner to the other trustees saving me a step. Dana is a straight shooter and clear/concise communicator. If you want a quality realtor who is also honest and kind, you will be in good hands using Dana. Highly recommend!

    • Dana is by far the most agile, competent, and organized realtor we have ever had the pleasure of working with. If you need someone who is the very best for your real estate purchase or sale I would highly recommend Dana. We were moving across the country, and so had to do almost everything remotely via FaceTime, email and text. Dana handled everything beautifully, even as the various stay-at-home orders were going into effect, and complications piled up. In a world with so many uncertainties, Dana is definitely the person you want to help you through these critical choices.
