Our agent, Christine Lau was infinitely patient and wonderfully personal. I almost regretted coming to the end of our search.

I had Christine as an agent both for selling my single-family home in Amherst and for buying a condominium in South Hadley. I am extremely satisfied with her services in both of these transactions and highly recommend her to any prospective buyer/seller. I went with Christine because I noticed that she helped sell my neighbors’ house in a very short time. Prior to listing my house, I had her visit my home and make suggestions for making minor improvements that would enhance its marketability and appeal to buyers. She gave me apt advice on how to value the house without departing too much from what I had in mind. Even before I had listed my home she was in touch with prospective buyers and mustered much interest. Christine’s huge network of professional contacts was very helpful in this regard. She also provided me with a list of contractors, attorneys, inspectors and repairmen, which proved to be extremely useful during and post inspection. In the end I was able to sell my home within a short span of only 3 months given that all of this happened during the Covid pandemic! A huge kudos to Christine! While I was in the process of selling my home, I was also in the market to buy a condominium in the area. When we went out to look for homes, she rightly gave me advice on what the pros and cons of each home were, including its location and proximity to amenities. In this highly competitive market, Christine’s huge network of professional contacts helped identify properties even before they were listed on the market. She never put pressure on me to make offer on a property at a particular price, but instead let me decide what I feel was appropriate. I lost out on a couple of offers I made, but in the end I got the best property of the whole lot I saw! And Christine helped me time the purchase of my condo to fall on the same day as the sale of my house to minimize disruption for me. I appreciated this because the move actually took place during the pandemic! During the entire process I felt that Christine was more like a friend rather than an agent with self-interests. If you are looking for an effective realtor who is also personable and interested in helping you realize your goals, then Christine is your person. I strongly recommend her!
