What my clients are saying
“Charles Cherney and Maggie Dee are outstanding realtors and 1000% would work with them again. In 2025, they helped us buy a single family house and sell our condo, both in the Riverside. They knew the market, were excellent communicators, and gave great advice. When buying, they truly listened to what we needed and helped us honestly evaluate the pros and cons of everything we considered. There was no pressure from them at all and there were no surprises; they really just wanted to make sure we were buying the right home. When selling, they toured our home and told us what home improvements were worth doing to get the highest sale price, and what wasn't. They were right, and in the end, it was well worth the ROI, the condo showed well and went under contract after its first weekend on the market. We received multiple offers, both higher than what we had expected. Charles and Maggie are experts at the top of their field, and will definitely reach out again next time we are buying or selling.”

“Maggie Dee + Charles Cherney were our buyer's agents who recently helped us purchase our first home, in Cambridge, MA. They were absolutely phenomenal, and we wholeheartedly recommend them to anyone looking to buy. Maggie + Charles personally toured nearly twenty properties with us. We were astounded by the breadth of their knowledge, which included an astute eye for flaws (e.g. lead paint, poor insulation) as well as hidden value. They pointed out issues that we never would have noticed as first time homebuyers. Not only did they just take us to view homes, they taught us how to think about the market and develop our own sense of what to look for in real estate. The home we ended up buying was not yet listed on MLS when Maggie + Charles excitedly told us about it. After working with us for several months, they knew precisely what we were looking for and knew that this house could be the right one for us. We had initially expected that an agent would push us to buy as quickly as possible, just so they could close a deal. Maggie + Charles did precisely the opposite. There were about five homes that we were seriously considering until Maggie + Charles convinced us that we could do better by waiting, and they were absolutely right. Once we found the house, Maggie + Charles worked diligently on our behalf all the way from the offer through the final closing. They were very involved throughout the process, helping us hire an inspector, following up on repair requests, and keeping the seller side accountable. We trusted in Maggie + Charles, and it paid off: we bought our dream home, learned how to navigate homebuying, and we know who we'll be calling next time!”

“I would like to extend my heartfelt thanks to real estate agents Maggie Dee and Charles Cherney for their exceptional assistance throughout the process of selling my home. Without a doubt, they are the most knowledgeable real estate team in the Cambridge local market. I first met Charles Cherney many years ago and was deeply impressed by his expertise and humble demeanor. He is an incredibly experienced and well-connected real estate agent. During the sale of my property, Charles took care of everything for me. For each project, he recommended at least two contractors to provide quotes. Throughout the preparation phase, he provided weekly updates and reminded me of the next steps. For someone like me who was overseas throughout the entire process, he was nothing short of a life-saver. Moreover, Charles has an outstanding understanding of the local market’s transaction data and latest trends. The listing price he suggested was beyond my expectations—and guess what? The property sold above asking price in just a matter of days! I cannot express just how impressed and grateful I am. Thank you, Charles Cherney and Maggie Dee, for your outstanding professionalism and dedication!”
