She's been in the real estate business for many years, and she knows the Boston market and particularly Dorchester like no other. Whether a buyer or seller, she will help you effectively and efficiently, and when the dealing is done, you will have a new friend in Boston! Ken Brooks, Dorchester, MA I FIRST MET MARLEA at an open house. I had been to dozens of open houses and was turned off by realtors who were too aggressive, or the direct opposite. Marlea instantly struck me as casual, yet very professional, and knowledgeable about the area. Within 48 hours of our having met at the open house, I had put an offer on my new home. Marlea was a great advisor through each stage of the buying process, and I would highly recommend her services to any prospective home buyers. Michelle Waldon, Dorchester, MA MARLEA IS THE BEST . I don't think you'll find anyone who will work harder. She's a straight shooter who makes the deals happen. Marlea gets the job done! Steve Chaletzky, Chestnut Hill, MA I HAVE KNOWN MARLEA MESH FOR SEVERAL YEARS as a neighbor and a friend. When I decided to sell my Dorchester condo she was the only person I contacted. I was relocating to Santa Fe, NM and trusted Marlea to handle the details of the sale in my absence. Marlea is a dedicated agent, and if she takes on the responsibility of selling your home or finding you a new home, she will always give you 110%. I would not hesitate to refer Marlea to anyone who was in need of a real estate agent. Kathi Gaughan, Santa Fe, NM MARLEA MESH KNOWS THE BUSINESS of real estate like a mother knows her child. She talks the talk and will find you what you are looking for. My experience working with her has been exceptional. Aidan Parkinson, Dorchester, MA Personal Background My father used to hand me the real estate section on Sunday morning and say, "Circle everything under $100,000." I guess you could say that real estate is in my blood. My parents owned 40 units in Lowell. They bought and sold several properties over the years, and I was always sitting on the sidelines, listening to every word! I worked as a paralegal for 10 years prior to entering the real estate field and learned the importance of paying attention to details. I bought my first home in Dorchester and raised my children here, built my business here and have a keen knowledge of the city and its housing. My interests in real estate, architecture, community building and the character of neighborhoods have helped me better serve my clients.
