- Jill Gaudet did an excellent job helping us through the sale of our Mom’s home. It was emotional for us and she helped us every single step of the way. Her extra touches and advice on the best way to give the home its best look were appreciated. She was thoughtful in her approach to pricing the home. It brought us exactly the buyers we were looking for. We really appreciate her fine work and highly recommend her.Pamela Marsocci
- We used Jenny Duff at Brad Hutchinson Real Estate for our recent home search. We had been searching for the right home for more than 2 years and Jenny was very patient and understanding during this long process. We finally found the right home and our offer was accepted. We were very pleased with Jenny's help throughout the process. We will use her again.Christopher Riello
- When it comes to Real Estate - there is no one I trust more than Mr. Mark Hutchinson. He's real, he's brilliant, he's seasoned and he's incredibly trustworthy. I'm luck to know him as a friend and business associate. Thank you for being you, "Hutch."Vanessa Saggese
- Pat Fitzgerald was an outstanding end-to-end agent for purchasing our dream home in a very competitive Melrose real estate market. Her years of experience in this market enabled us to identify properties/neighborhoods that fit our exacting requirements and anticipate potential matches that were coming on the market. She guided us through every part of the purchase process, from the search through the close, and her mastery was evident at each step along the way. In parallel, she facilitated the sale in neighboring Medford of our existing home. She managed multiple open houses, private showings, and the entire offer process all while our family was out of the country on vacation. We returned home to incredible results - a quick sale with many competitive offers to choose from, a testament to the care and attention to detail Pat has in the listing and showing processes. I can't speak highly enough about Pat - she is the consummate professional, has extensive experience and knowledge of the Greater Boston real estate market, and made the daunting process of both selling and buying property feel comfortable. I give Pat and Brad Hutchinson Real Estate my resounding endorsement.Gary Keen
- This is a great place. Paul Coogan represented me as the seller. He was outstanding from the start. He kept me at ease every step of the way. He would follow up with me almost every day. He would say what would happen next in the process. I had never sold a house before. So it was stressful for me but he eased my stress. I want to thank everyone involved with the sale of my house. I would recommend to anyone Brad Hutchinson Real Estate.Robert Blacklock
- I cannot say enough good things about Maureen Grant of Brad Hutchinson Realty. We have maintained a 20 year relationship beginning when I first began renting out my home in Melrose to this year when I sold it. I moved out of state and Maureen took care of EVERYTHING! She coordinated all the work that needed to be done before the sale and kept me updated daily. Her contractors did amazing work and the house looked perfect when it went on the market. Maureen priced the home correctly and I received multiple offers. She walked me through each offer, offering her knowledge of the market and housing in the area. Maureen is hardworking, smart and so very kind. I would not hesitate to recommend her for any and all realty work. She is one in a million.Christina FG
- We had a wonderful experience listing one of our apartments with Brad Hutchinson Real Estate. We worked with Jenny Duff and we couldn't have asked for a better agent. From the first phone call, Jenny was always so patient, responsive, friendly, and provided invaluable guidance along the way with screening prospective tenants and helping us in choosing one. So thankful for Jenny's expertise and professionalism. Highly recommend and we can't wait to work with Jenny again in the future!Channa Harris
- Never have I ever talked to a more condescending person than Maureen Grant. If money is valued more than respect, then she's the realtor for you 👎 would give negative stars on this experience if I could.Code the Martian
- We are extremely grateful for Pat and the Brad Hutchinson team for finding us the perfect home. When we met with Pat for the first time, she made sure we understood every nuance of the buying process so we could make well-informed decisions that were best for our family. She left no stone unturned educating us along the way. Pat is an expert in the competitive Melrose market and well respected not only by her clients, but by fellow realtors as well. Above all, Pat is a good person. She is kind, thoughtful and trustworthy. We would not have left such a big life purchase in the hands of anyone else.Jenna Lahiff
- Mark and his team are incredibly knowledgeable of the local real estate market. Brad Hutchinson Real Estate is one of the cornerstone businesses in Melrose having served the community for decades. Not only is Mark well connected, he's great to work with. I strongly recommend Mark for your buying or selling (or rental) needs.Brian K
- If anyone would ask me who is the best realtor in the greater Boston area, I always refer Mark Hutchinson. I've know Mark for over 15 years and have used his services. He is an expert in his field; you will not be disappointed!Dr. Al Costanza
- Mark Hutchinson is so passionate, hardworking and he is a wealth of knowledge. His experience & commitment to helping people buy and sell homes is unprecedented in the Melrose area. You will absolutely have a professional & successful experience if you use Mark Hutchinson as your realtor.Laura Dillon
- Highly recommend Mark and his team for any new home buyers who are interested in getting support in this challenging market -- no one knows the industry/ will take better care of you!!Meghan Magee
- John Bulman was amazing in helping us to sell our family home of over 50 years. My Mom wanted only Brad's office to sell the house and we understand why. Everything was smooth and seamless. The Tierno Family is very appreciative!Robin Jackson
- I am so grateful for Andrea Bates and her tireless work on my behalf to find my house! She and Brad Hutchinson Real Estate are incredible and are people whom I can trust absolutely. I highly recommend using Andrea and Brad Hutchinson Real Estate for finding or selling a home!Robin Loewald
- Working with Maureen Grant was fantastic- I can’t recommend her enough! She is extremely knowledgeable about the area and took a good deal of care helping us determine a sale price. She was helpful through the entire listing, showing and closing process. Overall great experience for us.Katy Daiell
- Valerie Lane is hands down the best realtor in Melrose. She patiently spent several years helping us find the right house, never pushing us to buy something that wasn't right for us. And her advice about marketing our home for sale has been invaluable. She made what could have been a very difficult process fun.Colleen Murphy
- We worked with Sheryl Bird to purchase our first home. As first time home buyers we had a lot of questions and concerns through out the whole process. She is prompt and great with communicating the whole home buying process. Sheryl stopped at nothing to make sure we got answers to our questions and that our concerns were heard. She has the knowledge and experience with real estate but she is also one of the kindest people we have met. We were able to secure our home because of Sheryl's contacts and connections to other realtors in the area. She never pushed us into something we were not comfortable with (waiving home inspection). Sheryl is SIMPLY THE BEST! We gained a friend for life when working with Sheryl and we cannot wait to have her over for dinner!!Jennifer Belanger
- Pat Fitzgerald and her colleagues at Brad Hutchinson RE are the best. With Pat's connections and decades of knowledge, preparing our home for sale was effortless and her guidance/advice priceless. We received 14 attractive offers in less than a week. Pat worked tirelessly in the process to maximize our price while finding the best successor to our cherished home and neighborhood. Her energy and diligence made the entire process a joy -- a fitting end to our legacy and love of the home. Ted MurphyTed Murphy

- We had the pleasure of working with Pat Fitzgerald at Brad Hutchinson Real Estate. Pat was an highly knowledgeable partner to us throughout the transaction process and made herself available around the clock to address our needs. Having Pat by our side gave us confidence from offer to closing, and any prospective buyers would be lucky to be represented by her!Robert Gearon
- Working with Jenny was a breeze and made the selling of our home much easier. Would use again!Michael Dugan
- Jenny Duff is an amazing realtor! She was communicative and awesome to work with. She knew exactly how to market our home. I highly recommend working with her and Brad Hutchinson Real Estate!A Google User
- Working with Linda Hutchinson-Bulman at Brad Hutchinson Real Estate was such a pleasure throughout our buying process. She was responsive, kind, flexible, and incredibly knowledgeable. We feel so lucky to have landed in Melrose - we will definitely be referring Linda to friends looking in the area. We were referred to Linda by a friend who bought in Melrose a few years ago and we are so glad he referred us to her!Taylor Shepherd
- Working with Maureen Grant and Brad Hutchinson Real Estate was a great experience. Her knowledge and understanding of the area while being aware of the changing market made the sale of my mother's condo a breeze. Maureen's assistance with maintenance and cleaning before the sale was invaluable and the convenience of the Brad Hutchinson moving van was a helpful bonus. My mom’s transition could have been difficult but Maureen went above and beyond to assist with all our needs that made the move enjoyable as my family starts to make new memories. Many thanks to Maureen! I highly recommend working with Maureen for your real estate sales or purchases.Anne Clark
- I wanted to give a shout out to Kathy Richard of Brad Hutchinson Realty. Kathy was very professional and went above and beyond in taking care of all my needs during the whole process involving the sale of my property. I can’t thank her enough for making the entire experience a pleasant and profitable one!John Osborne
- After uncovering a few things about my real estate transactions handled by Bulman I am retracting my previous statement. First, we had our property surveyed and discovered neighbors occupying our land with a pool deck and they said the previous owners allowed them, not disclosed to us. Second, we were not made aware that the seller signed off on a Town variance a couple weeks before we signed the P&S, which the next door neighbor was constructing an addition, Brad Hutchison was involved in the sale of both houses. Third, another neighbor encroached on a space between our garages and he said the previous owners allowed, another serious item that was not disclosed to us by the realtor or seller. Bulman was involved in the sale of our previous house and there were a series of realtor errors that caused a 3 month delay in finding a buyer, bottom line my house was priced incorrectly by Bulman. Other houses came on the market the same day of which Brad Hutchison was the listing broker but did not disclose to me that my house price should be readjusted considering the other updated houses coming on the market. Be aware that a realtor is a ‘self-serving salesman’ whether you’re the buyer or seller!Betty Chin
- So much gratitude for Jenny Duff and the whole Brad Hutchinson Real Estate team for representing me on both my sell and my buy. Moving back to the city presents unique challenges, including lots of travel back and forth, timing of the move, etc. Jenny was knowledgeable, patient, and on top of all the details. Selling and buying homes can be overwhelming, even if you have done it a few times. Jenny made the experience so much more manageable and enjoyable. Thank you!!Jill Koontz
- Happy to share a 5-Star review for Brad Hutchinson Real Estate after working with Mark over this past summer to sell 2 homes here in Melrose! With Mark's professional expertise, calm and reassuring presence and attention to detail, we were able to quickly and efficiently close on both homes. We look forward to working with Mark again in the future!Mary Doucette
- We just want to say thank you to John for handling the sale of my father's home. It was a stressful time and John handled every detail. He has been in the business for many years and his professionalism, knowledge and efficiency contributed to a fast smooth sale.Richard Dunne
- I can't say enough good things about our choice in hiring Brad Hutchinson and Paul Coogan to sell our Saugus home of 18 years. This was not your run of the mill home sale. We were moving cross country and our house had many obstacles to over come as well as being a challenging property due to lack of a backyard but Paul conqured them all and went above and beyond what any broker normally does. Paul helped facilitate many other aspects that were out of a broker's normal purview and did them calmly and professionally. If your looking for a calm and steady presence to guide you through your home sale than look no further than Paul Coogan. My family and i cannot thank him enough in steering us to our ultimate goal, California.Mikey P
- Writing this review on behalf of my father-in-law, Stephen Longmuir. He has worked with Pat Fitzgerald at Brad Hutchinson Real Estate multiple times and has always had an amazing experience. She is extremely professional, understands the industry and answers her phone every time, which is very important when you are trying to purchase or sell a property. Her expertise is top-notch and Stephen looks forward to working with Pat again!Brittany Longmuir
- Our experience with Brad Hutchinson Real Estate and its realtor Paul Coogan was perfect. Paul informed us of every relevant issue with the property, responded immediately to all questions, and closed on time - no delays whatsoever. Thank you Paul!!Elise Brassil
- My husband and I were first time home buyers. Our experience with Brad Hutchinson, with Jenny as our awesome agent, was just so great--above and beyond our expectations!!Miranda Kwon
- Pat Fitzgerald was an amazing realtor. I give her my HIGHEST recommendation. Thanks for making the home buying process incredibly easy!Greg P
- Andrea Bates was a dream to work with to sell my mom’s property. Professional, kind, caring. And she got over asking due to Andrea coordinating some much needed updates to the property before selling. Highly recommend!Judy Tasker
- It was our good fortune to have Zehra Behremovic of Brad Hutchinson Real Estate in Melrose represent us in selling our house recently in Andover. Zehra was a professional from the very first meeting and instilled confidence in us that our house would be sold very quickly and for a very fair price. BHRE is a first class firm whose infrastructure guaranteed that our house would get plenty of exposure on social media, even before it was listed. Of course, once it was listed potential buyers were literally lined up via appointment and at the open house, to view our home. We received multiple offers and the lovely family that bought our house was so appreciative of Zehra’s efforts to deliver exactly the house they had dreamed of. We can’t thank Zehra enough for her expertise and wonderful work to make a difficult process literally painless.Bruce Goldman
- Jenny helped me and my family find our dream home. She's so calm, positive and professional, and was honestly a constant source of support in our search, especially in such an unpredictable, volatile market. Working with Jenny was a true delight -- she's easy to communicate with, proactive, organized, and incredibly knowledgeable. With ease, she helped us navigate the nerve-wracking process of retracting an offer on a house that was a total money pit, and then, only after a few weeks, helped us secure an offer on our new home -- a house that somehow checked every single box for what we were looking for. Not only is Jenny an exceptional realtor, she’s also incredibly honest, and just an absolute dear. She made the entire process of purchasing a house about as close as it could be to a cakewalk. Highest recommendation!andrew miller
- John couldn’t of done a better job from Brad Hutchison RE. Completely satisfied. Never any pressure and very professional. John has done both sell two properties for me anddone rentals. John and his staff were always very attentive to any questions and concerns I had. I would recommend John Bulman very very highly.Donna Sharrio
- It was a complete wonderful, easy, and successful sale by your agency , but most specific from Pat Fitzgerald. She is an absolute superstar, knowledgeable, supports all her recommendations with documents, follows through, communicates well, and is simply a pleasure to work with.Michael Tocco
- Zehra was so pleasant to work with. She handled a few tough situations very well and was always happy to take our calls and help with anything she could. I would gladly work with her again.Kelly Durakovic
- I recently worked with Maureen Grant at Brad Hutchinson. She was amazing in helping with the sale of my aunts house. She has extensive knowledge about the area and was proactive through the whole process. She provided many local contacts to assist us in getting the house ready to sell. She was extremely responsive and such a pleasure to work with. She really went above and beyond for us throughout the whole process. We were extremely satisfied with our experience as well as Maureen's knowledge and professionalism. Thank you Maureen.Katie Priestley

- It was an absolute pleasure having Brad Hutchinson Reality Agency for the sale of my two condo's with in a year. What could of been a very stressful time turned out great. My agent Valerie Lane could not have been more helpful. Very professional, Responsive, and pleasant. Top notch in my book.joanne kelly
- We’re very happy to recommend Mark Hutchinson of Brad Hutchinson RE. Mark was our agent for the July 2022 sale of our long-time Wakefield home, and he was an absolute pleasure to work with. We really appreciated Mark’s many years of real estate experience, and we definitely felt we benefitted from his realistic expectations and predictions regarding the current RE market. In the months before the sale, Mark suggested a variety of steps we might take to improve the appearance of our house inside and out, and he helped us to find local service providers who were responsive to our timing, affordable, and also easy to work with. Working with Mark was just great!! He had a very positive can-do attitude, and a calm and easy-going manner. He quickly responded to our texts, calls and emails. After only one weekend of Open Houses, and just as the mortgage rates had started their quick climb, we were so pleased to accept a great offer from a qualified buyer. From there, Mark kept us in process, moving smoothly forward from the P&S to the Closing – no problems, no delays, no issues. We are pleased to highly recommend Mark to anyone in the local area searching for a knowledgeable and experienced realtor for the sale of their home. Roberta and Lew DiNittoRoberta DiNitto
- We were recommended to Pat Fitzgerald and Brad Hutchinson Real Estate by a friend after trying one of those generic services with no luck. Pat was such a revelation and an immense help that guided us through a crazy housing market to ultimately find our home. She was always prepared in advance for every showing and every question we could think to ask, and always professional. We really depended on Pat's knowledge and expertise. She helped us adjust our perspective and identify what is must important in a home for us and then helped target opportunities that best aligned with what we had in mind. We wouldn't have thought to craft our offer that was ultimately accepted the way that we did without her recommendation of how to make it stand out from the rest. Pat and the whole team made the closing process much simpler than I'd been led to believe as a first time home buyer. They walked us through the whole process and quickly had everything settled and closed on time. We couldn't be happier with our home buying experience working with Pat and the Brad Hutchinson team, and we happily recommend them.Michael Richards
- My experience with Kathy Richards / Brad Hutchinson Real Estate was perfect. She is an exemplary model for what a great realtor should be. As a first time home-buyer, she did an amazing job in explaining how the market / home-buying process works, and upheld the highest levels of professionalism. Kathy also did a fantastic job in being proactive and consistently communicated with me from the beginning to the very end. There was not a time where I felt panicked because I knew Kathy would do whatever it takes to make it happen. I strongly recommend Kathy Richards to anyone who is in need of a real estate agent.Ken Chow
- We are SOOO grateful for the amazing support that BHRE has provided for the Melrose iRaiders robot team by donating their truck to transport our high school robot around New England. This spirit of giving through BHRE and the mentors that surround our students is what makes Melrose a great place to live.Red Hawk Robotics #2713
- Zehra Behremovic of Brad Hutchinson Real Estate made the daunting process of selling my home of over 30 years an almost stress free experience. She was extremely focused and efficient yet also very encouraging and patient with me. She had the ability to explain complex issues in a clear, easy to understand manner. Every detail was expertly handled by Zehra. I would highly recommend her to anyone who is considering selling their home. Thank you Zehra.Kathleen Magner
- I recently worked with Kathy Richard at Brad Hutchinson. She was beyond amazing in helping with my sale. She knows everything about the local real estate market as well as everyone to call to help get things completed for the sale. I highly recommend Kathy Richard at Brad Hutchinson and I can't thank her enough!!!!!James Grafton
- My experience with Brad Hutchinson Real Estate was perfect! Can't be more satisfied and happy with the support we received from Andrea Bates. She is a top-notch realtor! As first time buyers, trying to understand the real estate market it was very overwhelming, but Andrea was always so clear, detailing and setting expectations of what was coming next when we started our house hunting process that made it so smooth. She understood what we were seeking for our home and always brought feasible options. Andrea was very responsive and proactive, a trusted professional, so if you're looking for an agent, she is the right one!Judy Suen
- Maureen was tremendous to work with. As our agent, she was proactive in anticipating every need we might have, and coordinated on time with all of the various parties. The sale of our house was complex given we had to convert a multi family house into condos, and sell them individually. Maureen was there every step of the way. I will 100% be working with Maureen at Brad Hutchinson for any future real estate need.Craig Melillo
- John Bulman is an excellent realtor, who has unmatched knowledge of the City of Melrose and the surrounding towns, as well as strong relationships with sellers’ brokers that he has cultivated over the years. We appreciated John’s professional, yet relaxed demeanor, as we navigated this super-charged, competitive home buying market. He worked diligently with us to find our perfect home, even as our expectations and criteria evolved from where we originally set out. We highly recommend John for his patience, persistence and ability to bring to bear the full weight of his years of experience in the industry, which instilled confidence in us to craft a winning offer.Sharon D
- Jenny Duff was a great choice to sell my house. She always kept me informed of activity and we ended up getting way more than I asked. Since I live in Florida Jenny interacted with my daughter who lives in Andover. Jenny offered great advice and guidance along the way. I believe that she went above and beyond to make things happen. I highly recommend her as an agent.JEFF PROSANSKY
- It was a real pleasure using the Brad Hutchinson Real estate Agency. My agent ,Philip Kukura is a highly knowable professional. The selling process for my home was stress free (my home in Melrose sold in three days). Philip took us to many locations in search for a Condo that would satisfy our downsizing needs. The search ended successfully with the purchase of a newly constructed condo in North Reading, Ma. I would highly recommend this agency and particularly Philip Kukura for assisting in selling or purchasing a new home. Roland Van KavelaarRoland Vankavelaar
- Maureen Grant at Brad Hutchinson has been our Realtor and friend for many decades. She is a trusted professional, knows the market, is very proactive, and has a kind and calming demeanor.

Thank you, Mark and team! Pat Fish, Trustee First Baptist Church, MelrosePatricia fish
- Working with Andrea was a pleasure. Super professional and very personable to work with. She helped us narrow down the areas that fit our budget and needs since we were moving cross country, and helped us hit the ground running. She was extremely communicative and great to work with every step of the way. She helped us navigate the quirks of the home buying process unique to MA that were unfamiliar to us and made sure everything was kept on track. We found a home much sooner than we thought we would with Andrea's help and she made sure we saw the transaction through smoothly. Can't recommend her and the Brad Hutchinson team enough!Shehan De Silva
- Chad helped me sell my house when I lived out of state. He was positive, professional, and managed everything to the highest degree of excellence. Working with Chad was a real delight. He was responsive, easy to communicate with, proactive, organized, and incredibly knowledgeable. Chad has a vast network of professionals who helped get my house market-ready in record time, and dealing with him was entirely stress-free. Not only is Chad an exceptional realtor, he’s also scrupulously honest, and kind. I wish I had more houses I could sell with Chad. He made the entire process of selling my house entirely positive. You really could not find anyone better in this field.Jemima Talbot

- My husband and I found John Bulman of Brad Hutchinson Real Estate to be very helpful with our real estate transactions. He was professional and a calming presence during a difficult time for us. I don't think we would have made it through selling our house and purchasing another without his knowledge and calm demeanor. We would gladly refer John to anyone looking to buy or to sell their home.Donna G
- Working with Zehra to sell our home was a wonderful experience for my husband and I. First, we had no doubt we were going to be calling Brad Huthcinson, but to then meet and be paired with Zehra was just amazing. At first introduction, we were struck by how easy it was to talk with her and get to know her and vice versa. We felt as if we had a friend and true champion in our court to get us the best value for our home. Zehra is knowledgeable, kind, professional and also very engaging and just charming to be with. We thank her so much for all that she did to get us truly top dollar for our biggest investment.M S
- We worked with Mark Hutchinson to sell our family home in Melrose. He was outstanding in every possible way. He put up with all of our questions, and really took the time to understand our needs.

- My wife and I can’t write enough positive words about Andrea Bates to reflect how much we valued working with her. As first time home buyers in the current market, the prospect of getting an offer accepted seemed like a long shot. And without Andrea on our side I’m not sure we would have! Andrea really went the extra mile to help us get timely showings, ensure we understood the process & everything we could do to make our offer as competitive as possible, and answer all of our “first time buyer” questions. She showed up to every interaction well-prepared and helped us set our expectations appropriately while remaining positive about our prospects. Beyond the offer acceptance, Andrea was critical in reaching the finish line with a tumultuous closing. As a for sale by owner property, Andrea was truly the shepherd for us, the seller, the lawyers, and everyone else who plays a part in closing on a house! We felt she was truly looking out for our best interests throughout the entire process. I would enthusiastically recommend working with Andrea to anyone looking to buy or sell a house in the Boston area!Matthew Persons
- I have worked with Kathy Richard on several real estate transactions and she cannot be more professional, efficient and great to work with! She makes sure all the little details of processing a closing from getting the correct documentation to the attorney, delivery of keys and all the other moving parts of a transaction are taken care of. I would highly recommend working with Kathy.Susan Gallant
- Our experience with John Bulman at Brad Hutchinson was nothing short of perfect. John (Jack) was very attentive to our needs and tailored his schedule to fit my needs! He responded to every text and phone call and even though my anxiety took over a few times, John was super professional and gave me the confidence and reaffirmed nothing but positivity throughout. He also recommended my mortage company, home inspector, and is still referring me to contractors and specialists to help custom fit our new home with our own touch! I recommend John and Brad Hutchinson to anyone looking for a home and will recommend John to all my friends and family! Thank you so much for helping us find our dream home!!!Jason Dotoli
- Working with the Brad Hutchinson Real Estate Team, specifically Chad Erenhouse, was nothing short of exceptional. Chad was extremely helpful and patient with me while looking for an investment property in Melrose and the surrounding towns. Chad was able to find us the perfect property which was not even on the market yet! Chad seemed to take a personal interest in our search and made what is typically a stressful process into a very smooth one, which led to a very positive experience overall. Would highly recommend Chad and the Brad Hutchinson Team for all your real estate needs!Marissa D'Agati
- The Hutchinson's did a great job positioning my father's house for sale. They showed a real understanding of the market that resulted in over 100 views of the house and ultimately 18 offers to choose from. It was a very simple and fast process.Stephen Vickery
- Laura Igo, was our realtor. We sold our family home of over 50 years. My parents were so torn over this. Laura was patient and kind and made the transactions such a smooth process. We also looked at several condos in different communities and it took awhile to find the perfect fit for my parents. Laura just smiled and assured them we would find their new forever home , not to get discouraged and we did find it, they are so happy. I highly recommend Laura she is excellent with calming older people and those who may be downsizing and scared to make the next step in life. Please give her a call, you will not be disappointed.gus Grieco
- Pat has helped us out a couple of times in the past few years and I can’t say enough positive things! She is so attentive and helpful, and that seems to be the trend with the entire office! Plus, their own moving truck that they offer is a huge help! I highly recommend them if you are looking to purchase and/or sell your home!Sam Nunes

- Maureen Grant was a great help through the entire house buying process. My situation kept shifting as the process went on and she handled each change with patience and enthusiasm.

- It was a pleasure working with Chad. He provided wonderful guidance throughout the entire process. I would absolutely use his services again for future purchases.Kristen Bianchi
- Pat Fitzgerald and Jay Smith handled the rental of our house for a year while we were abroad, and did an excellent job communicating with both us and the renters. Pat later handled the sale of the house when we decided not to return to Melrose. She was professional, indeed beyond professional in every aspect of the sale. She found qualified buyers during the strict lockdown in the early days of the pandemic, and handled the paperwork and communication very well. We are considering buying a smaller condo in Melrose. If we decide to buy, Pat will be our agent again. It's hard to say enough good things about Pat Fitzgerald. Our relationship began in 2003, when she found a perfect house for us in Melrose. She has always been professional, generous, friendly, trustworthy, and a host of superlatives.Kerry Thompson
- Zehra did a great job handling the sale of my home in Melrose, MA. She came to the house right away. She was warm, friendly, understanding and responsive to our questions and concerns about the sale - re: sale expectations, time frame, staging, suggested prep. She hosted an excellent open house and showings . She was available/responsive until the papers were passed, which was a little uncertain due to covid, but we closed on time in April. Zehra was then able to assist us in buying a condo in Porter Square. She met us for several viewings in Cambridge and followed through with all responsibilities and communications with the listing agent/sellers until papers were successfully passed again! I would recommend Zehra as a real estate agent with the Brad Hutchinson Agency without reserve!Campmom
- I had the pleasure to work with Zehra this summer and I was very pleased. Zehra is very professional, attentive to detail, patience and always ready to help. Would definitely work with her again and recommend!Camila Huta
- It was a pleasure to work with Laura. She made the process seamless and stress free!Bryan Woods
- Andrea was incredible in the sale of our home. Selling our home during a global pandemic was a bit daunting but she made sure the process was incredibly smooth and we were very happy with the end results. All along the way she went the extra mile (and sometimes it felt like an extra 10 miles) to make the sale simple. She was always professional, quick to respond, and gave us complete confidence in everything that was happening. I would highly recommend Andrea to anyone selling their home.Christopher Wolfel
- Chad Erenhouse is a great broker. He recently listed our home in Melrose for sale. He was professional, punctual, and thorough. It was the first time selling a home for us and Chad guided us through the process smoothly. We would recommend him to anyone.Lauren Byron
- We worked with Andrea, who helped us find our home, and she was fantastic. Very responsive to all of our questions (and we had a lot of them). She went with us to open houses, and even went on our behalf when we couldn't make it due to our schedule. Worked with us through everything, showing us that she cared not only about making a sale, but about making sure we got the house that was right for us. And she even got this all done during a pandemic! Very highly recommended.Philip Weber
- We had moved out of state in mid-March at the beginning of the coronoavirus crisis. We had planned to have a lot of work done on our previous house in Melrose to put it on the market and were very anxious about it. Maureen on the Brad Hutchinson team handled everything for us; she gave guidance and sought input and, in incredibly difficult circumstances and in a shake economy, closed the sale of the house just over two months after we had left it. I can't emphasize enough how well she handled everything and made a stressful experience in a stressful time much more bearable, and got us quickly to a desired outcome.Steve Jones
- Chad Erenhouse is an excellent real estate agent. He is very personable and easy to deal with. He answered all our questions in a timely manner. Chad was proactive in making sure that all the details necessary for the closing were done on time and in an orderly fashion.Anne Gilbert
- I first contacted Paul Coogan on January 13, 2019 to sell my condo in Melrose. 22 days later, he sold it - and for cash to boot. Paul is a rare professional who's personable, knowledgeable, determined, precise in his work. I should also add that Paul orchestrated everything while I was in Colorado. Thanks Paul, you're the best!robert burkhart
- Pat Fitzgerald helped me so much through this stressful but exciting experience. I deeply respect her wisdom and experience.Catherine Elliott
- Professional and Friendly a joy to work withMichael Morico
- I have personally used the services of Mark Hutchinson and Brad Hutchinson Realty to buy my home. Mark is knowledgeable and attentive, and made the entire home buying process easy and less stressful. I strongly recommend Mark to assist in either the sale or purchase of real estate, whether it be in Melrose, or throughout the greater Boston area or beyond.Shari

- Mark helped me with my first house. Being a first time buyer I didn’t know what I didn’t know and the information comes at you like a fire hose! I had been looking around for awhile and not finding anything that matched my budget and needs. I initially didn’t want to bother him with my first time ignorance but in hindsight I should have started with him. Funny how so many people you know suddenly want to be your broker because they “just” got their license. I had to tell a friend that I didn’t want to be their guinea pig for my biggest purchase to date. I’d much rather go with someone that’s been in the biz. After looking at a few together I stumbled across a house down the street from my apartment. I woke him up at the crack of dawn and told him to get me in!!! We saw it later that day and I think it was the sun coming into the back porch that sold me on it. It was a Cape style similar to the one I grew up in and I could see its potential. I told him to “get’er done”. I didn’t want to hear all the behind the scenes stuff or deal with the nitty gritty I just wanted to know when it was done. Even with a few bumps on my end we still got it completed pretty fast, or so my friend says. Her words, “ that was the fastest house purchase I’ve ever seen!” I very much appreciate how quick it went. It’s not something I would want to spend lots of time on. I don’t plan on moving but I did tell Mark that if I kick it first I will put it in my will that he can be the one to sell it again. Granted by then it will be a mini mansion. The nice thing about working with someone that knows the area is I can still ask him for contacts to places like a dry cleaner, tub refinisher etc. It really helps to work with someone who knows people. At this point I would call him a friend and feel extremely comfortable referring him to anyone! I have very high expectations in efficiency and customer service and he meets them all with a smile. I want to also mention that there was never any condescension. I found that when you are learning an entire industry in a few months time from someone that does it for a career they often expect you to be up to speed overnight. This is common, rude, and a quick way to loose a client. Needless to say this was not Marks way of service. Call him first!Frolicking Fido
- Nothing but praise for the way Brad Hutchinson Real Estate handled the sale of our home. Everything was so well organized from start to finish. John Bulman was our realtor and did a fantastic job in marketing our home. He was extremely knowledgeable, well organized and patient with my wife and I. He told us what to expect and he delivered. We got a great price for our home and we were most pleased. We would recommend John Bulman from Brad Hutchinson Real Estate to anyone who wants to buy or sell property.Mike Dotoli
- I have worked with Valerie Lane twice and both times have been such a breeze. She is wonderful to work with and makes the process so easy with her reassurance and confidence. We have found our long term real estate agent with Valerie!Anissa Ali
- Kathy Richard is professional, personable and exceptionally responsive to clients' needs. I so appreciate her attention to detail and quick response to inquiries. It is such a pleasure to work with Kathy!Sue Lamm
- When we decided to sell our home it wasn't an easy decision. But with Kathy Delaney Richard as my childhood friend, after scheduling a sit down with her, it was easy after that. I have never had Kathy as my real estate agent, but knew that if I wanted a professional touch, I had to retain her for this job. She knew just what the market was and with knowing that, she was able to give us a price that the house sold in two days. It was a fair price for us and we knew that we were in great hands. If I am ever in the market, and look for something to buy, I will not hesitate to call Kathy. I highly recommend her for all of your real estate needs. Buy or sell, she has a handle on the industry. Thank you Kathy and to your team at Brad Hutchinson. It was all professional, then. Now let's go have a beer, wine for Kathy 😎🤣 XoBob Rock
- I had the pleasure of working with Kathy Richard to sell my parents home. From the first meeting I knew she would put their needs first. She strategized creatively to get the best price quickly. The house went under agreement with multiple above asking price offers within days. Kathy kept in constant communication with the other broker when problems arose on buyers end. I would highly recommend Kathy for her professionalism and knowledge. Both of my parents speak highly of her to this day.D MC
- Kathy Richard has helped us multiple times in the past 15 years. She is a trustworthy, experienced, and knowledgeable agent. Kathy understands both the real estate market and our personal situations. From start to finish, she has been on our side every step of the way. She was a mentor to answer our questions and provide us with resources. She was also very responsive in handling any issues that may have risen. Kathy loves her job and is very generous with her time. We truly like her personally and professionally.Pai-Jing Chen
- Chad Erenhouse is the most informed agent I have ever worked with. If you are looking for someone who is knowledgeable about & in touch with the day to day of the the local real estate market Chad is your guy. Don't put your house on the market or look for a new home without him!Andrew Peterson
- Laura Igo has been so helpful in finding a beautiful apartment to rent while working a full time job. I would highly recommend her to anyone who wants to sell, list or rent a home!Rose May
- I've had a great experience working with Brad Hutchinson's team over the years in Melrose. I've used them for both finding rentals as well as buying my first home. In all of those experiences I felt confident that they were looking out for my best interests and ensuring that I was taken care of. It feels good to support a local business while taking advantage of their expertise regarding Melrose real estate.Zachary Gildin
- one of the most corrupt realtors in Melrose. Tried to short sale my house after trying to lowball to another realtor. Did the same thing to me 14 years ago when I first used them to sell my first home. Do your research people and find someone who will work for you and not the party interested in you.Brian D
- Brad Hutchinson Real Estate has been around for years. My broker was Linda Hutchinson 27 years ago and I used her recently to sell my house and help purchase my new home. She is so professional, caring and very helpful. Only a phone call away. Always responded to my txt or phone calls. She knows what she is doing and always included me in the process. I consider Linda a friend and someone you can trust. Brad Hutchinson Real Estate is the way to go if you are selling or buying. JoanneJoanne Conboy
- I took advantage of the valuable service from Brad Hutchinson real estate whereby you can use their custom moving truck. This saved my life a few times now as the options for many people for moving large items are limited. The process was simple, the truck beautiful, and the people at Brad's were incredibly helpful and friendly.Tyga4cash

- I have used Bard Hutchinson Realtors exclusively for many years. When buying, renting and selling property. Just one call does it all and I could not be happier. The help and information they have provided me over the years along with the superb service has been outstanding!Michael Caruccio
- I've never been able to stump John Bulman. He's always answered all of my questions, no matter how small. No one knows this area (Melrose) like him.Jamie Gorton
- I loved working with Karen as my buyer's agent. She is responsive, efficient, and knowledgeable of the real estate process. I recommended her to my sister as well and she was equally pleased! She is flexible and works with your availability.Nicole Benjamin Johnson
- My husband and I worked with Rob Viola when searching for our first house. He was incredibly helpful, professional, and patient throughout our search, even when we were looking outside the Melrose area, and was always available if we had questions or wanted to book a showing. As home-buying novices, his experience was invaluable to us during the purchase and closing processes, and everything went as smoothly as possible. We would not hesitate to recommend Rob and BHRE to anyone looking for their dream home!Allison Back
- I interviewed three realtors before I chose Brad Hutchinson Real Estate to sell my house. The reason I chose Brad Hutchinson is because I liked their approach to the business of buying and selling houses. Mark Hutchinson was my realtor and he did a great job of explaining the buyer-seller market and helped me to set realistic expectations. We studied comparables from the local area but also did some comparisons in bordering towns. With the help of Brad Hutchinson Real Estate, I sold my house in three months. Quite an accomplishment in this tentative economy. Mark and the team at Brad Hutchinson listen to their customer and guide them in the right direction. They stand out from the crowd of realtors and I would recommend them to anyone who needs a top notch realtor. Carol SnellCarol Snell
- Mark Hutchinson and his team provide excellent service for myself and my wife. They successfully sold our house at a very good price, provided staging expertise to ensure that the property showed well, and gave expert advice regarding the several offers we received. In the end the process was very smooth and stress free (at least for us), Mark and his team took care of everything, kept in constant contact with us, so that we knew when the house was being shown and made sure that any disruption to our lives was minimized.Colin Sweeney
- Poorly run and very out of touch organization. They like to "forget" about problems and give you the run around. A lot of hired help is old and relatively unskilled.Ryan Savary
