TESTIMONIALS

11/15/2022 - David. J. Bought a home in 2022 in Wellesley, MA.

Celine represented us during our new home purchase last year. She was referred to me by a work colleague who hired Celine to advise him on a home purchase. Celine is the ultimate professional. She gave us her undivided attention at every step of the purchase process. Using her market expertise and extensive network of contacts we were able to quickly pinpoint the right house for us. When it comes time to sell this house she will be my first call.

Celine is the ultimate professional and a wonderful person. In a frantic market, she helped me find a beautiful apartment that meets all my criteria - location, size, amenities - and all this in a few weeks’ time. Celine extensive experience and knowledge showed in every aspect of the process. She understood quickly what I was looking for, was always available to answer questions and gather additional information on a property, and provided invaluable advice when it was time to make an offer. Working with Celine was a rewarding experience, and I am wholeheartedly recommending her to anyone who wants to find the perfect home.

To my surprise in one week Celine turned our apartment, that was in a bad shape, into a lovely looking place by coordinating many different professional services. Within a couple of days she brought us 5 offers and we sold it smoothly and quickly.
Celine abilities are above and beyond, she was always available when I called, she is nice, energetic and dynamic, reliable and capable in all aspects of the field. Highly recommended.

Celine is very knowledgeable about the real estate market in the Boston area. She was extremely helpful in finding a home for me that met all my criteria, including location. She also helped me evaluate several potential houses, and she gave me great guidance for making a successful bid at a very wild market time. She also referred me to other required professionals, such as a house inspector, a mortgage broker, and an attorney, who all did a great job for me. I would not hesitate to recommend Celine to anyone looking to buy a home in the Boston area.

1/16/2022 - Hilong C. Sold a Condo home in 2021 in Brookline, MA.

I was referred to Celine by my neighbor whose house was also sold by Celine. My wife and I have been extremely happy working with her in selling our condo in Brookline, Mass. She was clear in our initial contract, provided comprehensive market research (a high quality color print book !). She hired a stagger on her expense who came and provided thorough staging inputs, and Celine took a few pages long notes from the suggestions. After that, she helped us with staging (e.g. arranging bedding, wall arts, bathroom decoration,...etc.), brought many pieces that she owned. Each time, we had questions about the layout, she would take out her notes, tell us what the stagger wanted us to do. Since we already moved out our condo and lived across country on the west coast, she provided countless helps to us that were above and beyond, e.g. worked with a carpenter fixing the curtains, floors, cleaning crews. When the cleaners did not want to come, she vacuumed herself during the weekend. She also hired a professional photographer who did an excellent job, and pictures were amazing. During the agreement period while we were away in the west coast, she helped us making arrangement, clean out stuff from our condo. Everything was very smooth, this happened during the Xmas and New Year holiday season, she communicated regularly, always respond within minutes with absolute clarity. We were amazed by her masterful skills, high energy, great passion, and genuine nature. We frankly did not how she could do everything but she did. She is just a fine person, with exceptional skills. During closing, she was so knowledgeable, always there to help. We whole heartedly recommend her to anyone with real estate needs. I worked with several real estate agents over my life time, none of them were even close to what you get from her. She is truly amazing, it will be your fortune to have her on your side.

11/30/2021 - Reyna S. Sold a Single Family home in 2021 in Fisher hill, Brookline, MA.

How can I even begin to describe this experience? We had so much work to do to make this house sellable and on top of it were doing work on a new home we had already bought...we were so busy and could not spend time or energy on selling our old home. Celine came in and it felt like a god fairy had just come! She took care of every little detail...she had amazing ideas on how to make our old house feel brand new and fresh again from paint, to new lights and even the most beautiful staging. After she was done I felt sad we did not do all those changes before so we could enjoy them ourselves. She made sure we did everything we needed to do to make the house desirable...she was so good we did not even get to have an open house...the house sold right away! Our home sold incredibly fast and way over asking price. We are forever grateful to Celine for making this experience a breeze. We highly recommend her!

8/11/2021 - Elena E. Sold a Condo home in 2021 in Brookline, MA.

Celine is more than a real estate agent, she is a force of nature! Not only did she successfully sell our home WHILE we were abroad and in the middle of moving our family to another country, she absolutely went above and beyond what any real estate agent would ever do to get our house prepared (including coordinating movers, furniture staging, painting, and repairs) in our absence, plus ensuring every detail from the very tiniest to the very largest were taken care of so that this massive endeavor could take place without a hitch. This was not an easy task - in fact, I would guess no other agent would be capable of undertaking such a project. Her kind heart and absolutely incredible (unmatchable) work ethic were what got our family through this successfully - selling our home for a great price, WHILE WE WERE OUT OF THE COUNTRY, AND in the midst of a global pandemic. Just Wow.

12/1/2021 - Mark R. Sold a Single Family home in 2021 in Sharon, MA.

Celine was professional and extremely helpful not just with the actual posting and sale but with the preparation leading to the posting. She listened to all of our concerns and helped us to understand the process.

8/9/2021 - Kelly D. Bought a Single Family home in 2020 in Weston, MA.

Celine helped our family find our dream house in Weston last year and we could not be happier. She is a fantastic communicator and her knowledge of the business is unmatched; working with her was really the best thing we could have done and we are so grateful.

6/13/2021 - Elodie L.Bought a Condo home in 2021 in East boston, East boston, MA.

Best experience with Celine ! Always available and gets exactly what you are looking for ! No waste of time , she found our apartment within a few days of starting the search process. Closing was a breeze she guided us through the whole process and took care of everything I would definitely work with her in the future.

6/11/2021 - Paul Avillach Bought and sold a Apartment home in 2021 in Brookline, MA.

Celine is outstanding! She assisted us for both selling and purchase process and we are so glad that we worked with her. She is an expert in Brookline and Newton and nearby markets. Those were our area of search. She gave us really precious advice to manage both processes. We had a great work relationship during the whole process, and we entirely trust her. We had to sell and buy in the middle of a pandemic, with two busy careers and young children at home. Celine really created a plan that could work for us, and minimize stress and time while accomplishing what was needed. Celine has very high standards. She worked very hard, including to help us prepare our condo for sale (she helped us with the staging as well!) and we really appreciated her services. She has a great team of service providers, including home inspectors, painters, lenders...
We now have the house of our dreams and we are very grateful to Celine.

Strong recommendation without any reservations.

3/14/2021 - Ashley G. Bought a Single Family home in 2021 in Sharon, MA.

As first time home buyers my husband and I were walking into an area completely unfamiliar to us. Celine was professional, knowledgable and patient with us while we came up the learning curve, and was super helpful in helping us understand all of our options and items we may not have considered. She helped us explore three different neighborhoods and numerous options until we settled on our dream location. She quickly understood what we were looking for and was helpful in sorting through options that may appeal to us yet was understanding of any restrictions we had (e.g. budget / location). Celine was always readily accessible by call or text at all times of the day or evening. Even after the purchase of our home, Celine has continued to be of phenomenal help, providing recommendations for services, inspections and even design tips! We could not recommend Celine highly enough. Even though we think we have found out “forever” home, we would love to work with her again given the opportunity.

12/19/2020 - RIVA Development Sold and bought a home in 2020 in MA 02135.

I have been a developer in Boston for over 25 years, and I can’t say enough good things about Celine’s support, advice, and hard work throughout the nearly 4-year process that ended with three successful transactions in my latest development. Celine was keenly involved in every step of the pricing strategy and design process, all the way through staging. She always put my interests first and showed her dedication and smarts at every decision point, with impeccable responsiveness and attention to detail. She was able to navigate this process during the unprecedented times of the COVID pandemic. She is a pleasure to work with and an absolute expert in the local market.

5/10/2020 - Pavlos F. Bought a Condo home in 2020 in Downtown crossing, Boston, MA.

AS AN INTERNATIONAL CLIENT OF MRS CELINE SELLAM I CAN SAY THE FOLLOWING:
A HARD WORKING PROFESSIONAL, WITH VALUES OF THE HIGHEST STANDARDS.
BEING A PERMANENT RESIDENT OF GREECE, MY FAMILY DECIDED IN EARLY FALL OF 2019 TO MAKE OUR FIRST INVESTMENT IN THE US PROPERTY MARKET BY ACQUIRING A LUX CONDO IN BOSTON MA. MRS. SELLAM AND I WORKED ON THIS PROJECT FOR 6 MONTHS APPROXIMATELY. TIRELESSLY SHE VISITED ALL POTENTIAL CONDOS OF INTEREST, SENT VIDEOS OF VIEWS, LAYOUTS, NEIGHBOURHOOD DETAILS AND PROS & CONS OF EACH POSSIBILITY. THE CARE AND DEVOTION IN SERVICING US, ONE WOULD PARALLEL IT TO AS IF THE PURCHASE WAS TO BE MADE FOR HERSELF. ONCE A SHORT LIST WAS COMPLETED, MRS. SELLAM'S ATTENTION TO DETAIL AND ADVICE TO REMEDY FAULTS NOTICED IN CANDIDATE CONDOS WAS TRULY APPRECIATED. DURING THE NEGOTIATION PROCESS HER EXPERTISE AND EXPERIENCE WAS THE BACKBONE TO CLOSING THE DEAL UNDER THE BEST POSSIBLE TERMS. FINALLY TO SAY, ON THE DAY PRIOR TO CLOSING, SHE VISITED THE THE CONDO PREMISES UNDER LOCKDOWN STATUS TO AFFIRM CONDITION STATEMENT OF CONDO TO BE ACQUIRED. WITHOUT ANY HESITATION HAVE REFERRED MRS. CELINE SELLAM TO OTHER FAMILY MEMBERS CONSIDERING TO PURCHASE PROPERTY IN BOSTON MA.

11/15/2019 - Matt H. Bought a Apartment home in 2019 in Griggs park, Brookline, MA.

Celine is wonderful and makes the buying process very easy. She was able to help negotiate on my behalf, and took all the pressure off me. I was buying a home for the first time so didn't really know what to expect, but when the process was all done, I realized it wasn't so bad (mostly thanks to her). When we were looking at the property I ended up buying, she made sure everything was in working order, and wanted to make sure I was completely ok with some of the things that weren't. All in all, I would recommend her to anyone who is serious about buying a new home. She really is great.

8/4/2019 - Julie R. Bought a Condo home in 2019 in Brookline, MA.

Celine was amazing to work with, she was attentive, very responsive and helped me get what I wanted. If it wasn’t for her I probably would still be looking for a place. I am so happy with my purchase!

7/22/2019 - chaimbschwarz Bought a Townhouse home in 2019 in Brighton, Brighton, MA.

Celine was incredible. My wife and I were looking to buy in a sellers' market. I am not sure we could have gotten to closing without her. She accompanied us to every open house and viewing, and was able to provide an experienced perspective in response to our questions about all of the features and issues that were important to us. She followed through diligently on every aspect of our home search, including forwarding questions to sellers' agents, gauging interest in particular properties, and, again, providing an experienced view of comparative pluses and minuses of different properties. Her responsiveness, skill, experience, and diligence continued through every stage after we placed our initial bid. She accompanied us through the inspection, provided recommendations for lenders, contractors, and experts, continued to manage our communications with the sellers' agent, and kept us reasonably sane by providing a steady guiding hand throughout the process. She understood our concerns, and knew how to address them both honestly and reassuringly. When we negotiated adjustments to the offer, she helped us identify terms that turned out to be extremely helpful, and negotiated on our behalf clearly and expeditiously.
We cannot recommend Celine highly enough. Thanks in large part to her, we are now in our "forever home," but if we were ever in the market again, we would definitely work only with her.

12/13/2017 -Elena E. a Condo home in 2017 in Brookline, MA.

Of all the real estate agents I’ve encountered (which are many) I have never had as positive and pleasant an experience as I’ve had with Celine during our most recent purchase of a new home. Celine is extremely knowledgeable, effective, prompt, and a true advocate for her clients. At the same time, she is unobtrusive (the way other agents I have dealt with have been) and fundamentally a GOOD person. Not only is she exceptional at her job, she is knowledgeable about all aspects of home buying and selling and was able to provide us with recommendations, advice, and contacts for any projects we could think of in connection to our purchase. Without a doubt, Celine is one of a kind in this industry and unmatchable. I would recommend her in a heartbeat to anyone engaging in real estate transactions and am jealous of anyone who gets the fortune to work with her in the future.

8/15/2017 - Simi Krems Sold a Condo home in 2017 in Brighton, Brighton, MA.

Celine was very helpful throughout the process of selling our home. Her professional and comprehensive approach and sound advise were beyond what we expected.
As we were moving out of the country during the process she truly went beyond the call of duty again & again to assist us.
We'd recommend her to anyone looking for a real professional to guide them while purchasing or selling a home.

7/20/2017 - Rick D. Sold a Condo home in 2017 in Brighton, MA.

I listed and sold my home with Celine Sellam and would like everyone to know what a great experience I had from start to end.
Celine is one of the most professional person I have ever met. She is always so easy to reach at all hours of the day and on the weekends.
Not only did she consistently respond to all my text and phone calls with surprising speed but even more importantly she followed through with everything she said she would do.
We had several very challenging obstacles along the way that I never would have predicted and I was living 900 miles away from the property but Celine handled them all one by one even when it meant going way above and beyond what anyone would expect her to handle all the way through to the closing day.

Besides all of this, Celine is a great person with a warm and caring personality and it was a great pleasure working with her.
Sincerely,
Richard D.

From the start I was very impressed with Celine's expertise and thoroughness. For example, I spoke to about 4 other realtors before I decided on Celine.. Each gave me a booklet or folder with relevant information. All were helpful, but Celine's was the most comprehensive and professional. It stood out from all the others. This is a relatively minor detail, but it said to me that she was interested in small details as well as the big picture.
Every time I had a question or concern I felt very comfortable calling her with my inquiry. Her answers were thorough and knowledgeable. If she had any doubts about the matter, she would check with her manager, and quickly get back to me with a thorough answer.
To get the house ready for the market we faced a big decision--to paint or not to paint. Celine called in two different painters to get their professional opinions about a realistic and practical approach to this issue. I really appreciated getting two opinions, which concurred. This helped us to make what turned out to be the right decision.
I found Celine to be very personable and easy to work with. The whole process went very quickly and smoothly. I was very happy with the end result. All through it, I felt that I was in very capable hands. I would give Celine a five star rating in all of the above categories
