Annette is experienced, knowledgeable, attentive and obviously respected in the community. I enjoyed working with her and really felt like I was in good hands - she knows her way around the Boston residential real estate market.

It gives me great satisfaction to write a positive endorsement for Annette Given of The Charles Realty. As a first time home buyer, full of anxiety and completely native about the buying process, she assisted me in purchasing my first property in the South End in 2010. Her attentiveness to detail, exceptional client follow-through and intimate knowledge of the intricacies of the Boston real estate market helped make a smooth transitition to home ownership. I am fortunate to have found [...]

We feel so lucky to have been able to purchase our first home with Annette and her amazing team - their guidance, discipline, expertise and extreme generosity made this such a pleasant experience and for that we are eternally grateful!! Cannot recommend Annette and her team enough!!!

Annette Given of The Charles Realty introduced me to Boston real estate two years ago and in that time I've come to appreciate it very much. Long story shore, I'm currently in the process of purchasing my fourth property in Boston in as much time.

In this crazy, competitive Boston real estate market, I am 100% certain that Annette Given made the difference in me getting my dream home. From our first phone call, I knew Annette was the realtor for me. While I know she is incredibly busy and in demand, when she took me to view properties I felt like I was her only client. I'm new to Boston and don't know the neighborhoods very well, so it was especially helpful that Annette took the time to show me around and get a better feel [...]

Annette and her team are top notch and a pleasure to work with. When we first contacted her she quickly put together a list of great showings and was able to get us into properties at times that worked best for us. I would highly recommend her to anyone looking for real estate in Boston!!

We have bought and sold many properties and have never been more pleased with an agent. Annette was extremely knowledgeable about the current homes available, the characteristics of each neighborhood we were considering and the pricing of each location. She was happy to show us anything we were interested in and took as much time as we needed. She expertly guided us through the offer process. She knows EVERYONE in the business from bankers to repair men. Best of all she is a very kind and [...]

We had a great experience with Annette and her entire capable and friendly team! We started with two full days touring homes in Newton, Brookline, Wellesely, and Winchester. They were very generous with their time and helped to narrow our choices in an educated and thoughtful way.

Annette's long standing experience in the Back Bay and the time she takes to fully understand you're buying considerations, simplifies the process of finding property. She and her team are so responsive, dedicated, and truly enjoyable to work with!
