Where to Begin When Buying A Home in Massachusetts
Let’s say you have been thinking about buying your next Massachusetts home (whether it is your first or hundredth)… so what stops you? For many, it is the not knowing where to start and fear of being taken advantage of. We understand this feeling completely. In fact, Brick House Realty’s founder, Maria Salomão-Schmidt, had such a bad experience the first time she bought a Boston condo, she made it her mission to learn as much as she could about Massachusetts real estate and pass on that information to you. We have created a real estate company that makes home buyers and sellers feel safe and even have fun with the whole home buying process. All our agents share this same wonderful philosophy. We buy into the fact that what goes around comes around (and personally we can’t wait to get ours).

Brick House Realty is one of the only socially responsible real estate firms created to simplify real estate for you. Because we utilize the Internet, we serve all Massachusetts communities not just one little area. This gives you much more freedom. Here is a simple guide to Brick House Realty’s hands-on Massachusetts real estate site.

MLS Property Search. By working with Brick House Realty you get FREE and instant access to thousands of the latest Massachusetts listings of condos, single family homes, multi-family homes, vacation homes and income properties in the greater Boston area (including Back Bay, Beacon Hill, Brighton, Brookline, North End, South End, The Fenway, etc.) and the rest of Massachusetts (including Newton, Wellesley, Cambridge, Holliston, Natick, Cape Cod, Framingham, Worcester, Springfield, Wayland, Wrentham, Southampton, Bolton, Clinton, Hudson, Brockton, Ashland, Hopkinton)

Edu-macation. “If you are not laughing you are not learning.” Education is one of Brick House Realty’s main “pillars”. Our clients trust us because we help them avoid the pitfalls others fall into. In Massachusetts we offer public workshops and personal training, not only to our agents, but also to our clients. An educated client is a happy client whether you are buying a condo in Boston or a vacation home on Cape Cod.

Our work affects the lives of New England families every day. Lots of websites make things up. We have asked our clients to write their own personal thoughts. What you will see in this section are real comments (completely un-edited –even if they had spelling mistakes ;) by real people to give you a true sense of the results we offer. The photos on there are also of real clients and their families. Our good work is reflected in their smiling faces.
