Seller Testimonials

Alexandra Zega proved her success in selling our home during a challenging real estate market, with such professionalism, diligence and confidence, that when it came time for us to sell another property, we knew she was the agent we wanted to represent us as well.

It has been a pleasure dealing with Alexandra.  She is honest, intelligent, thorough, tenacious; she takes the time and puts forth the effort to understand the dynamics of each property and the market at any given time.  She follows up and has a work ethic second to none.  Alexandra listens to her clients and prospects, communicates effectively, knows how to get the job done, and does it well.  I highly recommend Alexandra Zega to anyone who is serious about either selling or buying a home.  We were certainly pleased to have her on our side!

When we first interviewed realtors, we did not choose Alexandra.  We quickly realized our mistake.  Don't make the same mistake we did - choose Alexandra first!  Her knowledge, support, commitment and professionalism are unmatched and she is a pleasure to work with.

I can't speak highly enough of Alexandra's skills as a realtor.  Her attention to detail is truly outstanding, from staging the house to look it's best to organizing a professional photographer to take first class photographs to advertising she really misses nothing. Alexandra managed to find us a buyer for our house within 8 weeks of listing and this in a buyers market when some houses can remain on the market for many months. In that short space of time we had three open houses and over 50 viewings. Selling a house can be a stressful experience but you can rest assured that Alexandra will guide you through the process and will look out for your best interests and will have one goal firmly in her mind - to find you a buyer at the price you want as quickly as she can. I would highly recommend Alexandra and wouldn't hesitate using her again in the future.

My friend hired Alexandra Zega to sell his home a couple years ago. There were some very challenging situations in the sale which Alexandra handled with humor and professionalism. When it was time to sell my home last year there was no question that Alexandra would be the best choice. It was difficult to leave my home of 22 years and there were times when I dragged my feet. But she was always there, encouraging, soothing, and gently prodding when I wanted to give up. I still hear her saying “Don’t you worry”. These were not empty words as she understood on a deep level what I was going through and truly believed it would all be ok...and it was.

Almost a year later I had to put my mom’s home up for sale. Once again I called Alexandra and she came to our rescue, offering advice and guiding us through a difficult transition. This time it was my mother, leaving her home of 40 years, who needed to be soothed, and Alexandra did this with compassion and patience.

I would encourage anyone selling their home to call Keller Williams and ask for Alexandra Zega. Most of us are not selling “houses” we are selling “homes”. Often there are memories and strong emotional ties associated with our home. It is important to have a compassionate and professional agent who not only knows how to get a home on the market and get it sold, but also has the capacity to gently walk those of us who are a bit ambivalent, through the difficult process.

All 3 homes were sold in less than 6 months, and in this market that speaks volumes about Alexandra Zega’s ability to advertise and present a home in such a way that it captures the attention of the right buyer.

Dear Sellers,

In an overheated, highly inflated, seller’s market that we all recently experienced, one might attempt to sell one’s house and have some success. It would depend on the location. I had a highly visible property on a heavily traveled road for sale by owner during this most recent seller’s market. I was able to sell it, but not before showing it to 40 parties—many of whom had no interest (simply shopping and comparing), were unqualified, or merely dreaming. Forty groups of strangers examining my home and wasting hours upon hours of my time made me question my decision to sell by owner.

In 2009, I again attempted to sell two properties by owner because the profit margins were slim. In the following eight months nearly every prospective buyer came with a realtor—so do not delude yourself into thinking that you will be saving a realtor fee. After eight months of wasted hours, advertising costs on television, print, and internet, and eight months of carrying costs, a ray of sunshine parted the real estate gloom with the appearance of Alexandra.

Alexandra brought knowledge, experience, a sense of humor, and ebullient personality to the equation—precisely what was needed. She was aggressive in marketing strategy, prompt in returning phone calls, worked to get answers to all questions, and was always professional in appearance and demeanor. Alexandra sold my two properties within a month of hiring her. Having seen many realtors through the years as a buyer of properties, I can affirm that she is a gem in her vocation. In the future, there is no question as to whom I will call to represent me, whether buying or selling. If you want to save time, effort, and money, and, if you are searching for an outstanding realtor to represent you, hire Alexandra Zega. Do it now—the sooner she starts working for you, the quicker you will see the results.

Dear Alexandra,

 You are definitely an "A Plus" player among Realtors in that you achieved what others might have considered impossible in a "slow" market - you sold my home for 98% of original asking price within 30 days of its listing...no small accomplishment. From the very beginning - when I heard two of your prior clients, in two entirely separate venues, deliver unsolicited, enthusiastic accolades, I knew I had to meet you. Your sincerity, responsiveness, and acuity were immediately apparent in our first meeting and I knew that partnering with you would put me at an advantage in an otherwise challenging market. I did my part and you did yours...You brought together a small team of highly qualified specialists (photographer, stager and contractor) that would ensure the best possible marketing of my lovely home - then you worked tirelessly, graciously and with just the right amount of humor to help me relax so we could get it all done in time. This is not the first time I've sold a home, however, it is the first time I've received so much understanding and expertise from my realtor...your savvy and all around know-how surely puts you "above the rest". I can't thank you enough for taking care of all the little details that helped keep the process manageable for me. From the day we signed the contract, you assured me that everything was under control - and it was, and that it would all work out - and it did. I can't thank you enough.

Sincerely,

Trudi O'Brien, Newburyport

"The Greatest (Real Estate) Story Ever Told (X2!)

I say "Times 2" because in one of the most difficult Real Estate Markets in history, Alexandra Zega sold our house not once, but, two times. That's right...twice!!

We placed our adorable little home up For Sale last September due in large part to my wife being transferred to another office location. Alexandra had generated a great deal of enthusiasm and interest from many prospective buyers. Within 6 weeks we had a couple of offers and we accepted an "offer" from a young couple. Shortly thereafter a Purchase and Sale Agreement was signed and we were agreeable to a December 22, 2008 close.

Unfortunately, unbeknown to the couple, their agent, Alexandra and us --- we were dealing with an unscrupulous, deceitful and downright dishonest Lender that this young couple had contracted.

To make a long story short, there were a couple of extensions made and ultimately the "financing" and thus the deal, fell through. In obvious panic because we were already paying for 2 residences (we had moved originally thinking that we were to close 12/22) and the dream house we had an accepted bid on was in danger of going into foreclosure, we had less than 2 weeks to find a buyer or face going back to the house we thought we had sold and either give-up or re-group.

Ahhh, but Alexandra was not daunted, as was her resonant theme throughout this ordeal-"not to worry", she said. You have to understand my wife and I were on the verge of devastation and with very heavy hearts. However, with the due diligence and the CONSUMMATE PROFESSIONALISM of Alexandra Zega, she not only found a new buyer, she was able to hammer out a deal and get it done in under 2 weeks and we closed on our Dream-Home-an Antique Farmhouse-in the bucolic Village of Merrimacport --- 1 day before the "Short-Sale" went into foreclosure!!

That all said, if you (or anyone you know) are looking for a Professional Real Estate Agent that is passionate about her work, passionate about life and people, contact someone we believe in as both a Professional, and perhaps more importantly, as a new-found friend... Alexandra Zega!

Alexandra, Thank You for going above and well beyond the "call of duty" and helping us find our way home!

Sincerely,

Kevin and Jennifer Griffin, Merrimacport, MA
