David Shorey

Top Agent in Greater Boston Area!

What do Clients Say?

David recently sold a house my sister and I owned in Belmont. We interviewed 4 teams of realtors and these 2 impressed us the most. Even before we had made our decision to hire them, they had contacted their contractors and had them ready, as well as scheduling a donation pick up for us. They really took the stress out of our hands and handled everything expertly and quickly. The final offer we accepted through them exceeded my expectations. Negotiations is definitely their strong point! Would definitely recommend these 2 and would use them again. Thanks guys!

Seller

The Shorey team assisted me with listing & selling a multi-family unit and purchasing 3 condominium units while filing for the federal 1031 exchange program. Their expert knowledge in all aspects were very helpful, especially the excellent references they provided. Several of them turned out to be the difference makers at the decisive moments. As a returning client I felt I was treated with the most friendly, efficient, and professional service. Overall it was a pleasant experience that gave me wonderful results. I very much look forward to my next opportunity to have the Shorey Sheehan team working by me.

Seller-Buyer

Dave is a master property marketer and generated a lot of interest in my property. He is professional and patiently explains the process. While the buyer's financing hit some snags, Dave persevered and we were able to complete the deal.

We engaged Dave as a buyer's agent for our Cambridge condo search. Note that this was a very difficult market for buyers. Where other agents wrung their hands and told us how many contingencies we might expect to have to waive (which we were not comfortable with), Dave was the first agent to share our excitement about buying a place, AND to not recommend such drastic measures. One of the best things about working with Dave is that he has lots of experience working with renovations. In an area where many places are old, it takes a knowledgeable eye to see the potential of a place – to see where a wall could be knocked down, where a bathroom could be added, where the plumbing is on its last legs. Dave is not afraid to dive into the guts of a house and recommend on what's bad news, and what could be changed and how much it would cost to fix it. Not every agent has this nitty-gritty construction-level understanding. Even after we closed on our new place, he continued to be helpful with odds and ends. Dave is also well-liked and well-connected within real estate since he's an easygoing guy who's been in the field full-time for so many years. In a challenging market, this 'who you know' aspect can make the difference between a buyer getting an offer accepted and a buyer getting ignored. From the moment we met him in his office, to his standing offer to visit every open house, all the way through til closing, Dave was the perfect blend of professional and personable, and we liked both these sides of him. We enjoyed his congeniality, his ability to play hardball in negotiations, and his willingness to tell us difficult truths when we needed to hear them. All in all, Dave was a warm and knowledgeable guide. He was patient and assertive without being pushy, and very responsive to all our emails and phone calls, no matter what the hour. When the seas of homebuying get choppy and emotions run high, Dave always keeps an even keel.
