Testimonials

“My wife and I recently moved from Los Angeles to New England for a job change. We looked at homes all around the Boston area and worked with many local real estate brokers in the course of our search for a new home. After an extensive home search, my wife and I unanimously agree that Charles is the most knowledgeable, the most diligent, the most honest, the most punctual, the best listener, and provides the most value of any of the brokers with whom we worked. We are more than happy to recommend his professional services and are proud that he is a fellow ‘Cantabrigian’ – a word we learned from Charles!”


“It is as pleasant as it is surprising in this day and age to find someone like Charles who understands the old-fashioned meaning of the word ‘service.’ He is unfailingly honest, forthright, courteous, helpful, available and on time throughout the entire transaction process and beyond.”


“Based on my experience as a lawyer with dozens of real estate brokers over the last 25 years, I rank Charles at the top, both in terms of his professional expertise and outstanding personal attributes.”

“Charles Cherney was consummately professional in his work with us. He kept us regularly informed about possible properties as we searched for just the right house. It was a pleasure to work with him throughout the process and he has our strong recommendation for anyone seeking a principled, knowledgeable, efficient, and client-oriented real estate professional.”


“I highly recommend Charles as either a listing broker or a buyer’s agent. As a buyer’s agent, he is committed to making sure that you find the right property at the right price. I found that he has excellent knowledge of the market and works hard to ensure that you understand your options and the value of a particular property. My experience with him was that he was willing to make whatever effort was necessary to ensure I had all information I needed. He is personable, knowledgeable and dedicated and I was very happy to have worked with him on my purchase.”


“Charles listened carefully and discerned what we were looking for in a house, even more quickly than we did! He guided us to several properties that would have been great for us, then helped us think through what it would be like to live in the different Cambridge neighborhoods. Once we had made a decision, he guided the process through to closing with efficiency, fairness, and tact.”


“It was a pleasure working with Charles. His attention to detail, courteous manner, and consistent follow-through made the often stressful home-buying process much easier. Even after the transaction was complete, Charles checked in with us to be sure that our transition to our new home was smooth. We highly recommend his services as both a listing agent and a buyer’s agent.”


“Charles did a wonderful job from start to finish in helping me sell my place. I had moved out of state and he made everything from the market analysis to the closing a breeze. He constantly kept me informed throughout the whole process and his level of service can’t be matched.”


“We had two missions when we met first Charles: to buy the house of our dreams and to sell our current condo. Charles helped to find the house that was perfect for us…. Our condo then went on the market for sale and we sold the property at a price we were very happy with. At the end of the day, it couldn’t have worked out better. We are indebted to Charles and highly recommend his services. His understanding of the Cambridge real estate market is unparalleled.”


“Charles represented fully my interests from the first showing through the closing on my home. He has extensive knowledge of the local real estate market and can quickly analyze the numbers of any property for cross comparison with the overall market. He listens attentively to you when you describe your specific home requirements and edits the showings accordingly so as not to waste your time. He answers questions with candor and directness, and he is personable to boot! I viewed several properties prior to making my home purchase and he was always able to make provisions for my hectic schedule and NEVER pressured the transaction. I will continue to work with Charles in any real estate dealings in the Cambridge area and recommend him highly.”


“I came across Charles Cherney while searching for a real estate agent on Google maps, and I can honestly say that I could not have asked for a better experience. Charles is a consummate professional whose commitment and devotion to his work is fully apparent. Charles is extremely knowledgeable when it comes to the Cambridge real estate market and it really showed. Trying to close a deal from across the country is difficult, but Charles was there every step of the way.

Besides his knowledge, professionalism, and commitment, Charles sincerely cares about his clients. I have the utmost respect and appreciation for Charles Cherney and would recommend him without any hesitation.”


“Charles impressed my wife and me immediately with his professional demeanor and knowledge of the Cambridge real estate market.

For every decision we faced, Charles made sure to fully explain our options and then offer his recommendation for the best course of action. He was always professional, prompt, and courteous, and he truly provided an outstanding level of service. Charles helped us attain a selling price that we were happy with, and we would gladly recommend him to anyone looking to sell or buy property in Cambridge.”


“Buying a home for the first time had its daunting moments, but Charles did a wonderful job of guiding me through the process with assurance and confidence. He was unfailingly responsive and extremely professional from our first meeting through the closing (and even provided assistance with painters, etc. following the closing). Charles knows the Cambridge market, is a pleasure to work with, and I would recommend him without reservations.”
