Lorraine was all business in a good way in selling my Dad's house in a "soft market". She employed excellent market knowledge, skills and game plan to serve our needs in an efficient, value driven basis. Basically she knocked it out of the park and help organize much of the unpleasant tasks of selling a property from my recently deceased father. Much appreciated.

Lorraine Gately is the reason our home sold quickly, flawlessly, and for top dollar, and she is the reason we bought our dream-come-true home, all within two months.

She succeeds at her mission with never-ending focus, kindness, and passion. She understands her client's needs, maps out the entire process for them, and works tirelessly until that goal has been achieved. The combination of grace and grit makes Lorraine Gately the best Realtor® around! Our home was purchased by the first person who toured it, in the middle of the pandemic surge, for the above-asking price. Lorraine’s exhaustive efforts and careful attention to every detail in order to launch our home in such a volatile time were paramount! Because of the genuine character of Lorraine Gately, coupled with being a master at the art of realty, I have already recommended her multiple times to family and friends who are looking to buy or sell a home. I highly respect the working relationship between Jill Leeman and Lorraine Gately. Jill was always available to answer a call or to offer assistance.
I had lived in my condo for six years, and also had worked in the city for 24 years, so I was aware of Lorraine's reputation for integrity and professionalism in her job. She has many years of experience and knows her hometown and its real estate market better than many other real estate agents in the community. Lorraine kept in constant communication with me during this entire process, so I was up-to-date with any issues or progress with the sales process. She was diligent to apply her vast experience to circumvent problems that might have arisen before issues could happen. Her performance was outstanding in every way! I was so satisfied that I handed out many of her business cards to neighbors in my former building who might be looking to sell their condos in the near future.
We used Jill Leeman to sell our home this summer. Before choosing a real estate agent, I conducted a lot of research to see who would be the best choice based on the investment they make into selling the property and how they promote their listings. Jill's office (Compass) stood out as the best Melrose has to offer. I could tell they put a lot of work into their listings. We were blown away when we saw our listing. And apparently, we weren't the only ones, as we immediately started receiving offers. We accepted an offer shortly after the listing went active. The rest of the process went very smoothly. Her knowledge, connections, and experience in the real estate business show. She was very proactive and responsive. I couldn't have asked for a better experience. I recommend Jill to anyone looking to buy or sell a home in Melrose. You won't regret it.
I have lived in Melrose for a long time now, and when asking friends for advice on a Realtor®, Jill Leeman's name always surfaced to the top. When I hired Jill to sell a property in Melrose MA, due to her impeccable reputation, I had very high expectations for her. She did not disappoint. From day 1, she treated me like I was her only client. I have used other Realtors® in the past but never got the attention and focus that I received from Jill. She has deep knowledge of buying and selling properties and knows absolutely everyone and every house in Melrose and the surrounding towns. She did a tremendous job communicating with me and shepherding me through this process. She sold the property within a few days and got above the asking price. I will definitely hire her again and will recommend her to all my friends.
