I have worked with Doug to buy and sell two homes now. Doug goes above and beyond to get the job done and make the process as easy and flawless as possible. Even in this tough market once again he got the job done. Thanks again Doug we look forward to our next opportunity to work with you. - Joe K.
Hi Doug, thanks again for all the help over the past several months. The closing and everything went very smoothly. – Randy N.
Thanks Doug. Moving is no easy task and I find you very easy to work with and comforting. My husband and I both feel this way; thank you for that! - Lori G.
Dear Doug, Thank you for all of your tremendous help and for the wonderful meal that lasted 3 days! We really appreciate all you’ve done for us! – Anna and Louis A.
We interviewed several Real Estate agents before selecting Douglas Stamm. We selected him because he came to the interview well prepared, knowledgeable of the area and our house. He had done his homework well and he was able to answer all of our questions regarding the sale of the house. We felt very comfortable that he knew his business well and would sell our house.
We couldnât be more pleased. Dougâs marketing methods are different than most agents in that he builds interest in the house before it is shown to anyone. It worked very well. In a difficult 2009 market, one week after the open house, we had an offer. Dougâs help in going through the offer process and everything involved in the sale has been invaluable and absolutely made this process much easier for us.
Doug knows the real estate business well and uses innovative marketing methods that worked very well for us. I would highly recommend him as a pro-active agent who will work very hard to sell your house, while providing invaluable help to you along the way. â Sheila K.
Working with Doug was a pleasure. He was on top of all aspects of the sale. He also provided guidance throughout the purchase. He acted as agent for our new home purchase as well as the agent for the sale of our condo. Both went quick and headache-free. Doug is on top of his game and it really shows. He is a definite recommendation to friends and family. No one is better. â Bob B.
We were out-of-state sellers and werenât familiar with everything required for the sale of a property in MA. Doug helped us every step of the way. He made it so easy to get our condo ready for the market. Even with the very poor 2009 market we had an offer in less than a month! Doug provided us with a checklist of everything that needed to be done to assure that everything would go smoothly all the way to closing. My husband and I have had a lot of experience with Realtors and Doug is definitely the best one we have ever had. Doug, thanks for everything you did to get our condo sold so quickly! â Bob and Joann Z.
Just last month I used Doug Stamm as both my buying and selling real estate agent and couldn't be happier. Without his knowledge and expertise, I would not have been able to secure my "dream" home that we are living in now. It has become VERY clear to me that there a lot of inexperienced real estate agents out there that can put your hopes and dreams in jeopardy (e.g deposit). Doug is not one of those people....if I ever needed a 2nd dream home I would definitely call Doug again for both buying and selling. â Gary N.
I received Doug's name from a cousin who lives in the area and used him to buy her house. We were relocating to MA from NY and had no idea where we wanted to land. We gave Doug a list of Criteria that we wanted and he showed us the houses. We spent every weekend together from October 2008 until Dec 2009. He is great with kids. My son loves him and the joke was that he loved basements and attics. Doug is a part of my family. Now that I bought a house I miss him :) He does what is right for you. â Mike and Meghan D.
We started looking at homes online before arriving in the states. We asked several agents questions over email about the properties we were interested in; Doug was the only one to reply with information above and beyond expectations. One example of this is when we asked about the current stage of a house that was being built and only the plans were online; Doug drove by the home and then called the builder to get all the details and timelines for completion. The other agents either didnât answer the question or said that we could look at it when we arrived. Our choice was easy; we knew we had the right person to help us!
We moved to Massachusetts from another country and there were many subtle differences to the process of buying a home. Doug was excellent at explaining each step and knowing/finding answers to every question we had, which were many. Doug listened to our needs and preferences in a home and created a shortlist of homes that suited our needs so we didnât waste time looking at unsuitable properties. He gave freely of his time and never made us feel that we were unreasonable to want another additional look at a home.
Doug was professional at all times, gave great advice and there was never any pressure applied. Again, above and beyond what was required, Doug gave us tips on where to shop for furniture and groceries, great restaurants, builders (for work we needed in the future) and sightseeing spots. He helped us to feel settled⦠Priceless.
To top it all off, Doug is a lovely guy and genuinely nice to be with. The stressful time of buying a home, and moving to a new country, was made so much easier with his help! We would recommend him to everyone looking for an agent who will deal with you respectfully and honestly. When it comes time for us to sell, we will be using his services again. â Quentin and Kristen R.
We have known Doug for about 14 years. He was the agent we used to buy our first house in 1997. During that transaction, Doug was terrific at walking us through the process and paying attention to all of the details. He solved a critical problem a few days before closing and made sure the deal went through as planned. More recently, in November 2009, we sold that same house using Doug again. He found the buyers himself and did a great job of representing us through the process. Once again, we had a smooth transaction with no issues. Fundamentally, Doug is someone we can trust and who really works hard during the home buying and selling process. We highly recommend him to friends. â Neal and Marjorie L.
My wife and I met Doug when he showed us a home we were interested in. We were not being represented at the time but were looking for an agent to guide us through the purchase of our first home. Doug impressed us with his patience and calm demeanor during his showing so we asked him to represent us moving forward. He was honest, patient, and informative throughout our home buying process and helped guide us to our first home. He's committed to helping his clients purchase homes they are happy with and to making the process as enjoyable as it can be! â Mike and Shonda M.
Doug was wonderful to work with. In March of 2009 we contacted Doug through the recommendation of a friend. My husband and I were first time homebuyers and Doug was always helpful and patient with our questions, and very responsive to our requests to go on home visits. He thoroughly explained the ins and outs of the home buying process and always made sure we had all of the information we needed. I know that he was working with several other clients while we were buying our home, but we never felt like we were less important. We would absolutely recommend Doug to anyone buying a home. â Heather and Mike R.
I was relocating from Denver to the Boston area. Doug provided excellent service throughout the entire buying process, from picking me up at the hotel, to showing me a variety of different condos, to coordinating the selection of interior finishes, to driving my fiancee and me to the closing. He was courteous and professional. Even though he did not represent me as an agent, I felt that he was honest and concerned about finding me the best place to purchase. â John T.
Doug is very knowledgeable, sincere and hard working. He provided us with sound advice and impeccable service while we purchase our first house. Impressively, I could never detect any faltering of his patience after an on-again off-again house search over 2.5 years involving at least 50 or so home viewings. 2 of my friends are using Doug based on my recommendation and I will continue to recommend him to people who are looking to buy or sell. I will definitely use him again. Jim & Aybike
Doug has made our 1st time home buying experience positive. Although he was the seller's agent, he helped and supported us (the buyer without an agent) through this complicated process. He is honest, hard-working, time-line driven, and flexible. He facilitated the negotiation so both sides felt good in a win-win situation. His recommendation on home inspection was excellent. He interacted with our bank and bank's lawyer to make sure we move the process forward. In ~1 1/2 month since the 1st open house, we bought our 1st home: November 2009! If we ever need to buy or sell a home in the future, we will work with Doug. â Yuanxin Xu
Dear Doug: Thank you so much for all that you have done in the past few months to help us through the difficult process of selling our parentâs home. The complicated issues of septic system requirements, codes, regulations regarding estates and many other issues were navigated through so easily with your assistance. We were extremely impressed with how comfortable it was to work with you. You were particularly sensitive to our needs and you were always willing to offer help and guidance â you even took a great deal of time to guide us in the placement and repositioning of furniture in the house in order to present it in the best possible light. My family concurs that it is a credit to you and your staff that this transaction (one that we all dreaded) went so smoothly. With sincere thanks, Betsy W., Barbara L. and Charles R.
Doug, Thank you so much for your help in locating a new ho me and especially in selling my existing ho me. I truly could not have been more pleased with the results. I found a beautiful condo and sold my big ho me in record time. I can't believe that we actually closed on the house within one month of closing on the new condo. I can't thank you enough. - Jim D.
Dear Doug and Dougâs Team, On behalf of Sonia and the kids, I would like to extend a big âTHANK YOUâ for all your hard work in the purchase and sale of our homesâ¦I wish everyone could have the same experience as our family did! I have worked with other realtors in the past and there is no way I would ever reco mmend anyone but Doug. Doug's knowledge and professional demeanor was perfect for our situation. He worked with our builder and our buyer simultaneously for several months, making sure everyone was satisfied...(Doug,) you were always accessible and open to discuss all the details about the processâ¦You made the experience less stressful and more enjoyable due to your patience and understanding. - Mark and Sonia R.
Hi Doug, Dori and I would like to express how much we appreciated your hard work, dedication, patience and relentless and sustained efforts to help us through the very difficult conditions that surrounded the sale of our home. Dealing with very confusing state regulations (septic tank, title 5, radon mitigation systems, well water testingâ¦) and a complex real estate market would have been a complete nightmare had we not been able to put our complete trust in you and had you not been personally so involved in guiding us through all of it every step of the way.
We are truly amazed at your patience, hard work, and your attention to detail! We are as satisfied with the sale of our house today as we were three years ago when you helped us buy it.
We strongly recommend Doug Stamm to all real estate customers. They are caring, dedicated, hard working, honest, real estate professionals who will provide you with out-of-the-ordinary dedication, patience, excellent service, knowledge, integrity, honesty and expertise! Doug is an example to be followed by all. Mike and Dori M.
Hi Doug: THANK YOU for everything you did for Andy and me. You made buying our first home a lot easier than expected. You work with a great circle of people and we have already passed your name along to several of our friends. Thanks so much for your help and all of your hard work. 7/24/2009 - Cindy and Andy H.
I was referred to Doug by a good friend of mine. My friend knows that I am a very prepared person. There were two things that impressed me about Doug. The first was that he was extremely prepared. He was great about letting us know the items to look at when pricing a home. Second, and more importantly, his preparation and level of detail allows him to tell people what they need to hear not what they want to hear. So many people are emotionally attached to their homes that they think it should always sell for a high price. What Doug was able to do for us is to give us a level of detail to demonstrate why our home would sell for a certain price and how to make it happen. It does not end there. Doug not only knows how to price a home correctly, but he is much more advanced in his marketing, especially in the manner he creates an online buzz, than most realtors. â Jon C.
Hi Doug: Thank you so much for helping me and Melissa find the perfect house. Itâs in the location we wanted, and more importantly it was in the price range we were looking at. I have already passed your contact info to some friends who are thinking of purchasing a new home in the near future, and will continue to do so. Thanks again!! - Chris
My husband and I had a great experience working with Doug. We worked with him as our buyer agent when we were looking for our first home and he was very patient and informative. We were unsure of exactly what area of eastern MA we wanted to live in, and we looked at over fifty houses with him! He was also very helpful during the offer and closing process and always made himself available when we wanted to discuss something or make an offer (whether it be by phone or in person). He made us feel comfortable and confident about our decisions during our first time buying a home. We highly recommend Doug and plan on working with him again in the future! Jessica G. and Ryan M.
Doug: I just wanted to say âThank Youâ for all your help and for putting Meganâs best interest before your own. I will highly recommend you to anyone I know that is looking to buy or sell a home. Thanks again Doug, it was a pleasure!! â Paula H.
Doug We don't know how to thank you enough for all you did to make this sale go so smoothly. We certainly feel you went to every length for us. Since we are out of state, this meant so much to us. From the first day we met you we felt very confident we were in good hands and you really came through for us. Selling a house that our family had lived in for 55 years we knew was going to be difficult for us, so your help and caring was so important. Thank you. Jack and Barbara L.
Dear Doug: Thank you so much for helping us both sell and buy our home. We are so grateful for all of your knowledge, advice and support. We truly appreciated your time and effort. â Grant and Martha G.
Doug, Thank you again for all you did throughout the selling process. I appreciated the updates and the hands-on support that you offered along the way. Meridith B.Â
Doug, It is truly my pleasure to refer people to you. Not only to send business your way but because I know that the person I send will get the absolute BEST service possibleâ¦I will continue to send anyone I can your way. I wish you all the best and continued success. Cindy B.Â
Hi Doug, MANY THANKS to you again! We moved to our new house last week and we are very happy! Please stop by when you have time for a glass of wine! We appreciated your 24/7 service with combination of quality and customer satisfaction!!! We will definitely reco mmend Doug as the best real estate agent to everyone!!! Doug helped us to find and buy the house of our dreams for a great price! The entire process ran smooth and predictable. Doug kept in mind every detail and reminded us about every little thing which was very important for the first time home buyer. He provided real 24/7 service! With any questions we called him any time! We also would like to thank Leslee and Megan for all their help in the home search. We finally found the house which we like so much! Wonderful team of real estate professionals!!! Many Thanks! Irina & Oleg B.Â
Doug, THANK YOU! That says it best. We are so fortunate to have used you as a buyer's agent. We would still be waiting to close on our house if you had not been involved! Thank you for staying on top of paperwork, getting us extra monies for needed repairs--but, mostly, just caring â¦enough to be there every step of the way! Use us for a reference ANY ti me! We'll be in touch the next time we buy a house! Darin, Heather & Austen H.
Over the past 10 years, weâve used Doug Stamm as our realtor. We have used him three times as a buyerâs broker and twice as a listing broker. We moved away from Massachusetts and recently we moved back. The first person we called to help us make the transition back to Massachusetts was Doug Sta mm. Why? 1. He listens. 2. He responds quickly. 3. He keeps the lines of co mmunication open. 4. He brings quality individuals into the process. 5. He works equally well as a buyerâs broker or a listing brokr.
All of this can be summed up as âhe just treats you right.â His integrity and personal style make him an absolute pleasure to work with. His dedication to servicing his customers assures you the job is going to get done. If you want a realtor who will do everything possible to meet your needs, then you want Doug Stamm. If you want someone who you will really enjoy working with, then you want Doug Sta mm. For us itâs pretty simple - if we need to buy or sell a home, we call Doug. Jeff & Becky L.
Dear Doug, Thank you very much for your help and great serviceâ¦it's been a pleasure to work with you and we definitely appreciate Doug's patience with such picky buyers like us. We al most gave up on ourselves but thanks to you did find a house we've been looking for all these years. It would be nice if you could leave us on your e mail list since so me of our friends are looking for a house too and we've already reco m mended you to the m as a great agentâ¦Thanks again and stop by for a glass of wine when you are in the area. Stanislav & Irina B.
Doug - We are loving our new ho me. We could not have made a better choiceâ¦You made the transition si mple for us and we appreciate all the help you gave us in the whole process. I hope we never move fro m here but if we do you will be our first call. Thank you! Michelle and Joe K.
I have been actively involved in real estate my entire adult life. As a real estate lawyer (and prior to that time as a licensed real estate salesperson) I have worked with literally hundreds, if not thousands, of real estate salespeople. Doug possesses the combination of qualities that make up the top echelon of real estate professionals â integrity, diligence, experience, knowledge of his marketplace, honesty, and a co mmitment to excellence in all he does. I know from experience that Dougâs involvement assure a smooth, professional transaction, whether working with a Seller or a Buyer, will help anyone looking to sell or buy real estate. Greg M.
My wife, Mary Beth, and I (were) moving (to Massachusetts) from Stamford, CT . . . we happened to be visiting an open house where Doug Stamm was the sellerâs agent. (We submitted an offer that was accepted) and from that moment on, . . . he provided a superior level of customer service . . . So much so that our lawyer couldnât believe the organization and detail Doug had when we signed all the paperwork. She said it was the smoothest closing she had ever had. . . . The whole process was amazingly simple and Doug was the key part of that. Someday when we plan to sell the house, I will be sure to call Doug to be my agent. Steve and Mary Beth F.
I found the process with you and Doug to be personal, professional, efficient and . . . as stress-free as buying a home should be! Thank you for your continuous support during the past several months. I appreciated your guidance and the connections you made for me . . . I love being in my new home! Thank you, Thank you, Thank you! Meridith B.
Hi Doug!! We are so happy we found youâ¦You were so helpful in answering all of our questions, no matter how silly. And you were great about keeping us calm whenever we were inclined to get a little hysterical. Doug, you always gave us your honest opinion as to whether you thought a house was right for us or not, which was very helpful to us. And I loved your website and the daily notifications as to how the market was changing. That enabled us to get in to see houses the first day or so they were on the market.
We were so happy you were able to co me with us to our closings; it was good to have an experienced realtor there for moral supportâ¦.We had a wonderful experience with you both, Doug and Leslee, and are certainly going to recommend you to anyone we know that is looking for a realtor.
Please, stop by the house so meti me and see how easily we've made it our ho meâ¦and thank you again for all of your help. The whole buying and selling process would have been much more stressful had it not been for you guys! Chris and Colleen C.Â
Hi Doug, Thank you for helping us find a ho me. It is a pleasure working with youâ¦We will definitely reco m mend you to anyone we know. You are a very good real estate (tea m). Ning and Qi K.
Dear Doug, We'd like to thank you for all the help you offered in the purchase of our new ho me and sale of our old one....you made the transition so easy...Both you and Leslee were great in taking care of all our needsâ¦Itâs very reassuring to have so meone available to answer questions and keep us infor med when making major decisions in our lives. Thanks again for your patience, concern and support...we will definitely recommend you to all friends that are buying or selling a ho me! Thanks again, Joe and Joyce S.
Mary and I had been looking for a house for about six months prior to contacting Doug. The search was difficult and it felt like no one was on our side. From the first meeting we had with Doug, Mary and I knew that he was someone that we wanted to work with as we felt he would be an advocate for our needs. The daily emails kept me informed of what was available . . . Doug was able to facilitate viewings . . . and . . . work with our busy schedule. Doug kept everything organized and on track . . . We would definitely reco mmend any of our friends looking for a home to Doug. Kreg H.
Doug . . . Thank you! We couldnât have gotten through the process without you. As first-time home buyers, we had a lot of questions and concerns. Your web site was the reason we first decided to work with you in the process. Not only was it professionally written, but it provided daily updates on the housing market â something we couldnât find elsewhere. Throughout the process you were always there, no matter what time of day or which day of the week, to walk us through the process. Buying a home is a stressful process, but Doug, you made it as easy as it could be. We canât thank you enough for your assistance, professionalism, and compassion. Because of your help, our dream is now a reality! Grant and Martha G.
(Doug,) One thing I need you to do is mail us a stack of business cards!!!! We are reco mmending you to everyone we know...if you ever need any sort of reference - you let us know!!! Thanks again, for everything - you made this potentially hectic time a smooth and pleasant experience. Kristen and Daniel B.
Scott and I truly appreciated how efficient and effective you were in helping us find a new home for my parents. You listened carefully to our criteria and guided us to several wonderful choices of homes. I can't believe we were able to find the perfect home in under a month! You were also invaluable in working through the deal with the seller offering us extremely helpful guidance during the negotiations. We would not hesitate to reco mmend you to anyone looking for a home. Best wishes and thanks again! Scott and Dawn S.
We canât say enough good things about Doug Stamm. Heâs got to be the quintessential real estate broker. . . . (He) implements (things) with incredible efficiency, effectiveness and good cheer! . . . He has that rare mix of extreme capability and humility which allows the client to feel that they are indeed important as well as ably taken care of. Janet D.
We would like to take this opportunity to thank you for sending Doug Stamm to talk to us with regard to the possibility of selling our home. Doug was very sensitive to the position we find ourselves . . . Rather than trying to talk us into selling the house for less, Doug took the time to make suggestions about expansion and even provided us with the names of some contractors . . . Should we decide to place the house on the market at a future time, we will certainly call . . . (and) then be able to work with Doug again . . . Thanks again! Roland and Janis B.
I just want to say that Doug Stamm was a great help during our home buying process. Even though we had our own realtor, Doug, who was the listing agent for the house we bought, helped us answer all our questions and concerns during the most critical times. Our only mistake was not having Doug be our full-time realtor! Thanks Doug! John and Francine P.
I am happy that Maureen and John were as lucky to work with you as I was. I promise to continue to refer people your way whenever I can. Hope business is going well for you. Kristen
I wish I had met you over a year ago when my house first went up for sale. I canât believe that it took you less than two weeks to find me a buyer. . . . I want to thank you for putting the extra effort and attention into the sale of my house. The next time Iâm in the market to buy or sell any property Iâll be sure to ask for your assistance again. I will also highly reco mmend you to anyone I know who could use your services. Thanks for keeping things running so smoothly throughout the sale and closing. Gerard M.
Out of the five brokers from other offices that I interviewed, I was most impressed with Doug. I felt that he would work well with us. He was so enthusiastic, it was contagious. Doug gave us great ideas to help us enhance the value of our home. He helped to negotiate a high selling price with the buyers. Doug was willing to do everything that we wanted to do in marketing and selling our home. He went out of his way for us! Glenn and Sarah F.
When my wife and I decided to start looking for a home, we contacted Doug. Doug treated us as if we were the only people looking for a home through him. . . . About one month later, we found the perfect home for us. Thanks to all of Dougâs hard work and for treating us so well. We constantly tell people of our experience with Doug and Steer people in his direction. Sean and Christine C.
We did not know what to expect when Doug told us about his unique marketing techniques. Doug was able to get three full price (offers) within 48 hours . . . His marketing technique heightened buyer awareness, which created a mini buyer frenzy. In working with Doug as a buyer agent, we also see other qualities in Doug, which make him stand out from the crowd. He works well with people, he has a quick response time and organization and knowledge of the real-estate business are excellent . . . we reco mmend Doug to anyone buying or selling a home. Ann and Brent K.
Youâll be our 1st referral to anyone. Again, thanks for all your help. It was greatly appreciated. Kathy and Bill M.
Doug . . . There should be more people like you! Thanks so much for all your valuable time, energy and efforts. We really enjoyed working with you. Amy and Mark J.
Neil and I just wanted to say thank you for everything you did, and all your hard work in helping us find the perfect house! You took what could have been a very stressful experience and made it easy . . . we love our new house! We will highly recommend you to anyone looking for a new home. Neil and Julie C.
We met four real estate agents (but) we really trusted and respected . . . Doug Stamm. Doug was extremely upbeat and friendly. Russ G. We just wanted to thank you for all the hard work you put into this one. Iâm sure when you first met us you didnât anticipate all the twists and turns weâd all eventually have to go through. One thingâs for sure: we certainly couldnât have done it without you! Rob and Heidi H.
Doug . . . we truly are enjoying our new home. I really want to thank-you for all the extras you did for us. It will always be appreciated and never be forgotten. Many thanks and best wishes for many years of success! Bill and Wendy C.
We contacted (Doug) via newspaper ad . . . met (him) at (the) property. (He was) Real nice, (had an) easygoing manner - not pushy. We felt that we wanted to continue working with Doug after our initial meeting; he doesnât fit any âstereotypeâ of real estate agents and we had a good rapport with him. Suzanne and Gareth J.
Doug was our realtor when we bought our first house. We had him as a buyers broker and felt he was very informative . . . He made suggestions and listened to what we wanted in a house and in a neighborhood. Thanks for everything. We have two kids now running around in the yard! Gerard and Kim B.
You made the home buying process very easy for us during our 6 month search for a home in Central Mass. Doug was always available to answer questions or to meet us at a potential new home. After we found our home, Doug was attentive to every detail . . . Doug even came by after closing to say thank you and good luck! We would reco mmend Doug without reservation and we will certainly contact him when searching for our next home. Maureen and John H.
Over the past 10 years, weâve used Doug Stamm as our realtor. We have used him three times as a buyerâs broker and twice as a listing broker. In 2001 we moved away from Massachusetts, and in 2003 we moved back. The first person we called to help us make the transition back to Massachusetts was Doug Stamm. Why?
-
He listens. He sincerely tries to understand your desires and your constraints to put you in contact with the right homes. This saves a lot of time in looking. We have several unique requirements as a family and with Doug we found all three of our homes in less than 2 weeks; twice we found them in one day.
-
He responds quickly. This is important when youâre looking, to ensure youâre not missing opportunities when the market is moving quickly. Doug usually will get back to me within 20 minutes or less. On one home, we were the first to see it the day it listed and were able to purchase in an outstanding neighborhood where homes do not stay on the market for long (and for a very good price).
-
He keeps the lines of co mmunication open. This is important as you move through the closing process, to keep things progressing smoothly and avoid any unnecessary delays. Doug works well with other realtors, the inspectors, town officials, the lawyers and the lenders â maintaining constant communication with them to move the process along for you. Very often we had to communicate and conduct portions of the transaction from half-way across the country â but whether by phone, fax or email - he gets back to you promptly on any issues and works with you, and for you, to get them resolved quickly.
-
He brings quality individuals into the process. Doug has helped us find a home inspector, a lawyer for purchase & sale, and 2 different lenders. When he recommends someone, he expects them to have the same commitment to service that he has. They have all provided outstanding service and at very reasonable rates. All of them have helped the closing process go smoothly. In fact we have used the same home inspector and lawyer on every home weâve purchased in Massachusetts.
-
He works equally well as a buyerâs broker or a listing broker. Whichever side of the transaction weâve been on, weâve always contracted Doug to represent us. When buying he will pursue issues and ask questions about the property that we would not have thought to ask â which is important considering our home is the single largest investment we have. Weâve learned a lot about purchasing a home just from what Doug has taught us. On the listing side he has a very comprehensive marketing plan, that has worked well for us on both homes weâve sold through him. Donât all realtors do this? No. Weâve owned two properties in other states and have not had the success in selling those properties that weâve had with Doug. Whether buying or selling, Doug will represent your best interests throughout the process.
All of this can be su mmed up as âhe just treats you right.â His integrity and personal style make him an absolute pleasure to work with. His dedication to servicing his customers assures you the job is going to get done. If you want a realtor who will do everything possible to meet your needs, then you want Doug Stamm. If you want someone who you will really enjoy working with, then you want Doug Stamm. For us itâs pretty simple - if we need to buy or sell a home, we call Doug. - Jeff & Becky L

My wife and I met Doug when he showed us a home we were interested in. We were not being represented at the time but were looking for an agent to guide us through the purchase of our first home. Doug impressed us with his patience and calm demeanor during his showing so we asked him to represent us moving forward. He was honest, patient, and informative throughout our home buying process and helped guide us to our first home. He's committed to helping his clients purchase homes they are happy with and to making the process as enjoyable as it can be!

I received Doug's name from a cousin who lives in the area and used him to buy her house. We were relocating to MA from NY and had no idea where we wanted to land. We gave Doug a list of Criteria that we wanted and he showed us the houses. He is great with kids. My son loves him and the joke was that he loved basements and attics. Doug is a part of my family. Now that I bought a house I miss him :) He does what is right for you.

I was relocating from Denver to the Boston area. Doug provided excellent service throughout the entire buying process, from picking me up at the hotel, to showing me a variety of different condos, to coordinating the selection of interior finishes, to driving my fiancee and me to the closing. He was courteous and professional. Even though he did not represent me as an agent, I felt that he was honest and concerned about finding me the best place to purchase.

Working with Doug was a pleasure. He was on top of all aspects of the sale. He also provided guidance throughout the purchase. He acted as agent for our new home purchase as well as the agent for the sale of our condo. Both went quick and headache-free. Doug is on top of his game and it really shows. A definite recommendation to friends and family. No one is better!

I was referred to Doug by a good friend of mine. My friend knows that I am a very prepared person. There were two things that impressed me about Doug. The first was that he was extremely prepared. He was great about letting us know the itmes to look at when pricing a home. Second, and more importantly, his preperation and level of detail allows him to tell people what they need to hear not what they want to hear. So many people are emotionally attached to thier homes that they think it should always sell for a high price. What Doug was able to do for us is to give us a level of detail to demonstrate why our home would sell for a certain price and how to make it happen. It does not end there. Doug not only know how to price a home correctly, but he is more advanced in his marketing, especially creating an online buzz, than most realtors.

Doug has made our 1st time home buying experience positive. Although he is the seller's agent, he helped and supported us (the buyer without an agent) through this complicated process. He is honest, hard-working, time-line driven, and flexible. He facilitated the negotiation so both sides felt good in a win-win situation. His recommendation on home inspection was excellent. He interacted with our bank and bank's lawyer to make sure we move the process forward. In ~1 1/2 month since the 1st open house, we bought our 1st home. If we ever need to buy or sell a home in the future, we will work with Doug.

I recently used Doug Stamm as both my buying and selling real estate agent and couldn't be happier. Without his knowledge and expertise, I would not have been able to secure my "dream" home that we are living in now. It has become VERY clear to me that there a lot of inexperienced real estate agents out there that can put your hopes and dreams in jeopardy (e.g deposit). Doug is not one of those people....if I ever needed a 2nd dream home, I would defintely call Doug again for both buying and selling.

We have known Doug for about 14 years. He was the agent we used to buy our first house in 1997. During that transaction, Doug was terrific at walking us through the process and paying attention to all of the details. He solved a critical problem a few days before closing and made sure the deal went through as planned.
More recently, we sold that same house using Doug again. He found the buyers and did a great job of representing us through the process. Once again, we had a smooth transaction with no issues.
Fundamentally, Doug is someone we can trust and who really works hard during the home buying and selling process. We highly recommend him to friends.

Doug was wonderful to work with. My husband and I were first time homebuyers and Doug was always helpful and patient with our questions, and very responsive to our requests to go on home visits. He thoroughly explained the ins and outs of the home buying process and always made sure we had all of the information we needed. I know that he was working with several other clients while we were buying our home, but we never felt like we were less important. We would absolutely recommend Doug to anyone buying a home.

My husband and I had a great experience working with Doug. We worked with him as our buyer agent when we were looking for our first home, and he was very patient and informative. We were unsure of exactly what area of eastern MA we wanted to live in, and we looked at over fifty houses with him! He was also very helpful during the offer and closing process, and always made himself available when we wanted to discuss something or make an offer (whether it be by phone or in person). He made us feel comfortable and confident about our decisions during our first time buying a home. We highly recommend Doug and plan on working with him again in the future!

We started looking at homes online before arriving in the states. We asked several agents questions over email about the properties we were interested in; Doug was the only one to reply with information above and beyond expectations. One example of this is when we asked about the current stage of a house that was being built and only the plans were online; Doug drove by the home and then called the builder to get all the details and timelines for completion. The other agents either didnât answer the question or said that we could look at it when we arrived. Our choice was easy; we knew we had the right person to help us!
We moved to Massachusetts from another country and there were many subtle differences to the process of buying a home. Doug was excellent at explaining each step and knowing /finding answers to every question we had, which were many. Doug listened to our needs and preferences in a home and created a shortlist of homes that suited our needs so we didnât waste time looking at unsuitable properties. He gave freely of his time and never made us feel that we were unreasonable to want another additional look at a home. Doug was professional at all times, gave great advice and there was never any pressure applied.
Again, above and beyond what was required, Doug gave us tips on where to shop for furniture and groceries, great restaurants, builders (for work we needed in the future) and sightseeing spots. He helped us to feel settled⦠Priceless.
To top it all off, Doug is a lovely guy and genuinely nice to be with. The stressful time of buying a home, and moving to a new country, was made so much easier with his help! We would recommend him to everyone looking for an agent who will deal with you respectfully and honestly. When it comes time for us to sell, we will be using his services again.

Doug is very knowledgeble, sincere and hard working. Provided us with sound advice and impeccable service while we purchase our first house. Impressively, I could never detect any faltering of his patients after an on-again off-again house search over 2.5 years involving at least 50 or so home viewings. 2 of my friends are using Doug based on my recommendation and I will continue to recommend him to people who are looking to buy or sell. I will definately use him again.

Doug . . . I read your last testimonial here and it is so nice to see you get what you deserve. I can never thank you enough for all you did to help me and my mom when we bought our first home and all of the others that followed. You are the best!

Mary and I had been looking for a house for about six months prior to contacting Doug. The search was difficult and it felt like no one was on our side. From the first meeting we had with Doug, Mary and I knew that he was someone that we wanted to work with as we felt he would be an advocate for our needs. The daily emails kept me informed of what was available . . . Doug was able to facilitate viewings . . . and . . . work with our busy schedule. Doug kept everything organized and on track . . . We would definitely recommend any of our friends looking for a home to Doug.

Scott and I truly appreciated how efficient and effective you were in helping us find a new home for my parents. You listened carefully to our criteria and guided us to several wonderful choices of homes. I can't believe we were able to find the perfect home in under a month! You were also invaluable in working through the deal with the seller offering us extremely helpful guidance during the negotiations. We would not hesitate to recommend you to anyone looking for a home. Best wishes and thanks again!

I have been actively involved in real estate my entire adult life. As a real estate lawyer (and prior to that time as a licensed real estate salesperson) I have worked with literally hundreds, if not thousands, of real estate salespeople. Doug possesses the combination of qualities that make up the top echelon of real estate professionals â integrity, diligence, experience, knowledge of his marketplace, honesty, and a commitment to excellence in all he does. I know from experience that Dougâs involvement assure a smooth, professional transaction, whether working with a Seller or a Buyer, will help anyone looking to sell or buy real estate.

Dear Doug and Dougâs Team, On behalf of Sonia and the kids, I would like to extend a big âTHANK YOUâ for all your hard work in the purchase and sale of our homesâ¦I wish everyone could have the same experience as our family did! I have worked with other realtors in the past and there is no way I would ever recommend anyone but Dougâ¦Doug's knowledge and professional demeanor was perfect for our situation. He worked with our builder and our buyer simultaneously for several months, making sure everyone was satisfied...(Doug,) you were always accessible and open to discuss all the details about the processâ¦You made the experience less stressful and more enjoyable due to your patience and understanding.

We interviewed several Real Estate agents before selecting Douglas Stamm. We selected him because he came to the interview well prepared, knowledgeable of the area and our house. He had done his homework well and he was able to answer all of our questions regarding the sale of the house. We felt very comfortable that he knew his business well and would sell our house.
We couldnât be more pleased. Dougâs marketing methods are different than most agents in that he builds interest in the house before it is shown to anyone. It worked very well. In a difficult market, one week after the open house, we had an offer. Dougâs help in going through the offer process and everything involved in the sale has been invaluable and absolutely made this process much easier for us.
Doug knows the real estate business well and uses innovative marketing methods that worked very well for us. I would highly recommend him as a pro-active agent who will work very hard to sell your house, while providing invaluable help to you along the way. â Sheila K.

We were out-of-state sellers and werenât familiar with everything required for the sale of a property in MA. Doug helped us every step of the way. He made it so easy to get our condo ready for the market. Even with the very poor market we had an offer in less than a month! Doug provided us with a checklist of everything that needed to be done to assure that everything would go smoothly all the way to closing. My husband and I have had a lot of experience with Realtors and Doug is definitely the best one we have ever had. Doug, thanks for everything you did to get our condo sold so quickly!
