Deanna Palmin – Coldwell Banker Back Bay

Deanna is a wonderful realtor. She worked with us tirelessly for the loooooonggg time it took us to find our dream home (our fault – not hers, we kept changing our budget), and gave us invaluable advice that steered us away from some other options that definitely would have been mistakes. She is a trusted adviser to our family, and really knows her stuff. I melted down more than a few times during the months of searching, and she always gave me a better perspective and calmed me down.
Someday when we need a bigger home, she will be the first call I make.

Deanna worked tirelessly to ensure that my home purchase went through. For example, she…
…Forfeited numerous evenings and weekends to accommodate my schedule for showings
…Provided creative solutions to our P&S negotiation process, which involved numerous extensions given one or both parties’ contractual needs and travel schedules
…Went to Cambridge City Hall and pulled all the permits on my new construction to make sure they were up to code… Remembered my commitment date was coming up (when I had forgotten) and reminded me to ask for an extension

…Was INCREDIBLY patient with my side of the purchase, as there were multiple parties involved, each with their own opinion, concerns, and needs
Given that this is the fourth home purchase in which I have been intimately involved, and probably the tenth realtor with whom I’ve worked, I’m quite familiar with what to expect from realtors.
No one, not even a realtor, will be as persistent, tenacious, and creative when looking through listings as you will be, because you know yourself the best and, ultimately, it’s your dream purchase.
However, where realtors really do add tremendous value is the whole negotiation process after the selection, and I can credibly say that Deanna is willing to go above and beyond for her clients.
