Kelly was extremely responsive to our many calls and texts, and helpful as we navigated the house buying process. All of the details can be very overwhelming, but she was knowledgeable, reassuring, and helped us keep all the details in line. Her questions were thoughtful to help us consider different possibilities, warn us of possible pitfalls, and down to earth suggestions (like making sure to ask sellers for the utility bill cost estimates). Her negotiating skills were fabulous, and closing timeline suggestions were realistic to ensure we had enough time between the inspection and closing to bring in contractors for estimates to help secure the best deal. She was very supportive when we unfortunately needed to back out of an offer, but advocated for us, and ultimately kept working her contacts to get us in to showings and open houses until we finally found just the right place, and we are so thankful for her diligence, attention to detail in helping to find the perfect house for us!

Kelly was patient and professional from the beginning. I lived in my property for over 20 years. Started out as a family of four, and over the years that became two, but I still had to deal with everything the four of us had accumulated. Kelly was right there with referrals and reminders to keep me on track. Fast forward through the open houses and finally to the offer that I accepted. For a number of reasons, this was not the easiest transaction, but she handled it flawlessly, advocating for me the entire time. If not for her compassion for my needs, her tenacity and her get it done ethic, the deal would have gone south. In the end, she got it done while facing many challenges, especially near the end when the buyer was unable to close on the agreed date. She made sure things kept moving, and we finally closed. I was fully informed every step of the way and she patiently answered my many questions. Would I hire her again? YES, without hesitation! Recommend her? ABSOLUTELY!

We have used Kelly to either sell or purchase several house over the last 15 plus years. She has been wonderful to work with! She is kind, helpful, and always makes herself available. We have always been treated as if we were her only clients. We would never use anyone else and strongly recommend her to anyone looking to sell or buy!

Kelly was so easy to work with and was extremely professional. She made our move cross-country so much easier by making the entire process seamless. Her goal was to sell our home as quickly as possible knowing that we had a deadline and to get us as much money as possible. She believed in our home and us and fought for us when it came to offers. She is an amazing realtor and an even more amazing person. I cannot recommend her enough.

Kelly is great! I used Kelly to buy my condo initially, then to rent it out, and now to sell it. Kelly is knowledgeable and on top of everything. The process was extremely smooth and she continued to update me along the way. 10/10 would recommend her time and time again. Thank you so much for all you hard work and dedication to getting my condo under contract in less than one week for full asking price!

Kelly is the absolute best. Easy to deal with, quick to respond, solid game plan all the time. For me, there isn't ever a question of who I'm going with, buying or selling. I highly recommend her for anyone else out there in need of an agent.

Working with Kelly was like working with a highly professional and knowledgeable friend. She really put in the effort to make sure I was feeling secure with every step in the process. Kelly talked me through every step...sometimes even a few times! I was very nervous about this purchase -- it's a house! -- but Kelly always responded to my questions with such kindness and reassured me things were moving in the right direction. She checked in with me throughout the process to make sure if I did have any questions, I knew it was okay to reach out to her at any time. She was also quick to respond to all my emails/texts/calls! I knew she would be on top of everything. Everyone I spoke with during this process was super friendly, professional, and knowledgeable. Realty Concierge International made buying a house in 2022 easy -- which was such a relief for me! Thank you all so much for your hard work!

Kelly was truly a dream to work with. She made my husband and I feel so comfortable with every house we saw. Her schedule was always flexible to be able to see any house we wanted. She asked all the right questions when at the open houses. She got back to us quickly with any question we had. I would recommend Kelly to anyone going through this process. She is also so kind and easy going. We feel incredibly thankful to have found her and worked with her. My husband and I bought our dream home and we could not have done it without her.

Because the house needed a new septic system at a time when septic engineers and installers were very busy, it took over a year to get from P+S to closing. Kelly was always on top every extension or change that had to be made. This could have been an unpleasant experience, due to the length of time it took to close. Kelly's knowledge and upbeat personality made it pleasant. Kelly was the first, of three brokers I contacted, to get back to me with all the information I asked for. She kept me up to date on everything from the P + S to the closing. She is an excellent broker. She a terrific person and an excellent real estate broker.

Kelly made sure that my wife and I were educated in every step of our home buying process. She provided knowledge and guidance that typically is not forthcoming from a Real Estate company or agent. She has a very personal touch and is 100% on top of and aware of all aspects of the entire process. If we ever again have the need for a real estate company and agent, Kelly McGovern and Realty Concierge International will be there without question!

If you are looking for a realtor, look no further..Selling a house can be very stressful. We felt 110% confident in Kelly to get the job done, this helped tremendously. Not only is Kelly Kind, caring and funny she was also extremely responsive when we had questions or concerns. She is very knowledgeable in her job, and works hard to help you get your sale done by always going the extra mile. We look forward to purchasing with her in the future. Thank you Kelly!!

Kelly was amazing at pointing out things to consider with the house as far as inspection and/or negotiating. She was phenomenal with negotiating price and terms/conditions. Kelly pretty much handled all the back and forth with each little concern and even made us aware of potential concerns because we were first time home buyers. She was on top of everything, the paper work, dates, etc. /> Kelly was a pleasure to work with and really made this process very easy and enjoyable. As first time home buyers we were very nervous but Kelly walked us through each step in a positive manner with lots of knowledge and answered all of our terrible questions kindly. 5 stars!!!

I had the pleasure of working with Kelly McGovern on my house sale in Douglas, Ma. This was the first house I’ve sold and had no experience or any idea on what the process was. I was impressed when upon our first meeting, Kelly had already done a market analysis of the house so we were able to speak numbers on pricing right from the start. Kelly was able to make suggestions for easy-upgrades to the house so it would show better. As I was living in a different state during the week, Kelly always made herself available on weekends for any meetings or support that I needed. She uses her own photographer and they did a wonderful job staging the house for the sale. We were very fortunate to have four showings the first day that the house was on the market, and had two offers the next day. As I was no longer living in the house or locally, I would NOT have been able to make this sale happen in such a timely fashion without all of Kelly’s hard work and dedication. I would recommend her to anyone looking to buy/sell a home. Thanks again Kelly!! -Robert Chase

Kelly was an exceptional real estate agent for my wife and I. From beginning to end she made the home buying process one in which we felt comfortable and well taken care of. Kelly was always available for any questions we had and happily took us to see any houses we were interested in. When we found the right house for us, she went to work to make it happen. She listened to our needs and gave sound advice. Kelly led us to a great mortgage broker, lawyer, and anyone else we would possibly need to contact. If you are looking for someone to guide you through the process of looking for a home, I would highly recommend calling Kelly.

Thank you Kelly for the great job you did in selling my house! After the 2nd time on the market you knew exactly what to do to get sold within a couple of months. I appreciate all the time you put into it!

I was actually happy and sad when Kelly found me the perfect house for me and my family. Happy that the search came to end but sad that I didn't get to work with Kelly on a daily basis anymore. Kelly made my house purchase go absolutely flawless. Kelly has something special, it is called determination and positive attitude. I felt zero pressure from Kelly to purchase a home that wasn't absolute perfect for me. I would recommend Kelly 10 out of 10 times. Scott Magill 18 Laurel Lane, Bellingham Ma

"Once in a great while one meets a person of exceptional character, ability and motivation. I first met Kelly about a year ago when my wife and I where searching for a new home. From the moment we met her, her drive and competence were immediately apparent and she became our exclusive buyer's agent. She quickly learned what we were looking for and never hesitated to point out features of a house she thought might not be to our liking. This was VERY IMPORTANT because her honesty lead us to trust her right away. Within a month of meeting her we found an ideal house for us, which we subsequently purchased. Kelly's calm, professional demeanor greatly helped us through the negotiating process. When it came time to sell our previous home, there was never any doubt we would use Kelly as our seller's agent. Her advice was essential and I believe ultimately lead to our home selling in about 30 days! Kelly's deliberate, precise analysis of the market in our neighborhood helped me to take the emotion out of the transaction; and thanks to Kelly I believe we got the best price we could get given the comparables in our neighborhood and the market trends in our county. One of Kelly's most impressive qualities is her razor sharp focus on the closing date. Once the Offer to Purchase was in effect, Kelly never lost sight of the ultimate goal: CLOSE THE DEAL. During both the purchase of our new home and the sell of our old home, Kelly made countless phone calls and road trips to third parties on my behalf resolving issues that might have otherwise delayed the closing date. As a result of her diligence, both closing dates occurred as originally scheduled in the Offer to Purchase. I have no doubt Kelly McGovern would succeed in whatever endeavor she chose to pursue. It is in her nature to do so. I believe you are fortunate to have such a person on your staff."

"We just really want you to know how much we appreciate everything you've done for us. We know that everyone is a first-time home buyer at some point, but John and I both know how many questions we asked, how many houses we had you show us and how many phone calls you had to make on our behalf. We are so incredibly appreciative of you 'decoding' the process for us, and we really would never have gotten to this point had it not been for all your help! If anyone ever asks for references, or we ever have the chance to recommend you, we will be absolutely happy to do so. Thank you so much!"

"Our relationship with Kelly McGovern began when we called to view a house she was the listing agent on. That house did not pan out for us, but Kelly would hang with us for the next 10 months while we viewed many properties that Kelly recommended and others we saw separately. We were not in any hurry and Kelly never made us feel pressured. We ended up buying the second house we looked at with Kelly, 10 months later when the Sellers began accepting offers. This process is new to us and Kelly spent time educating us and giving us the confidence we needed to move forward to final purchase. Overall the search and purchase of our home was a positive, relaxed experience. Kelly made that possible and we truly appreciate it."

"We just bought our first home and unlike all predictions for a very stressful and overwhelming experience, this was not. Kelly (McGovern) just took us for a "funky house-buying ride," showed us over 20 different houses, never rushed us and made sure all our questions were answered. When we finally found our dream home, she reacted fast and made sure all paperwork was done timely and promptly. Kelly is knowledgeable and a pleasure to work with. We recommend her to anyone who values good attitude and professionalism. Job well done, Kelly! Thanks!"
