Maggie Barry Gavin

Maggie is an absolute gem. She is kind, compassionate, knowledgeable, and unwaveringly devoted to her clients. Buying a home long distance (from out of state) in a market where homes go quickly demands a really responsive and communicative agent. It was as if my very best friend was there looking out for me. I could trust her advice and opinion 100%. She intuitively knew exactly what neighborhood we would be happy in. I still sent her all over town but it ended up she was spot on right from the beginning. We couldn’t be happier. Of all the homes I’ve bought I’ve never worked with a more competent and lovely realtor. Big or small, mansion or cabin, you can’t get better than Maggie on your side. I give her a thousand stars!!! Amanda Coleman

Maggie and her team were truly remarkable with the process of selling our childhood home. As you might imagine, it was emotional and with 5 siblings and their different questions, needs and thoughts. Maggie handled it gracefully and professionally. Maggie was our trusted guide and gave us clarity with her professional opinion in a way that always made the most sense to us. She really got to understand us as a whole and where we each were coming from. From the beginning, we could sense her easy command of the project, the possibilities and challenges and best ways to go about all the steps…and when things went one way, when we hoped that they would have gone another, she helped us to understand, offered her quick and confident suggestions as well as her honest and real empathy for the ‘particulars’ of the sale of our beloved family home! We would highly recommend Maggie as a genuine and caring real estate broker. Leslie Cancilla

We were recommended Maggie Gavin by a family member, and we couldn’t have asked for a better realtor. Maggie worked with us for over a year, and through it all, she was knowledgeable, patient, and incredibly responsive. As first-time buyers, we had no idea what we were doing, but she walked us through every step of the process, making everything feel easy and stress-free. Her attention to detail was amazing. She helped us avoid houses with hidden issues we never would have noticed and always considered our long-term goals to steer us in the right direction. She knows Pittsfield, MA, inside and out, from market trends to which streets are a little too busy or which neighborhoods are quieter. Her local knowledge alone was invaluable, but what really made the difference was how much she genuinely cared about finding us the perfect home. We were definitely picky, but Maggie never made us feel like we were being difficult. In fact, as she got to know our tastes, she started to understand what we wanted almost better than we did! And when it came time to put in an offer, we saw a whole new side of her...she went from being sweet and easygoing to an absolute powerhouse negotiator. Thanks to her, we got our dream home at a fantastic price. Honestly, we loved working with Maggie so much that we almost wish we could keep house hunting just for the fun of it! If you’re looking for a realtor who truly has your back, you won’t find anyone better. She’s simply the best. Wilson Margaret Claire

As first-time home buyers, my wife and I couldn’t have asked for a better agent. Maggie is a wealth of knowledge on topics like neighborhoods and home construction. She made the entire journey super comfortable and rewarding, even when we had doubts. Maggie never pressured us on a home, offered advice when we needed it, and asked questions that guided us to find a home that fit our wants and needs. Communication was outstanding throughout the whole process and even after we closed; Maggie was always quick to respond whether it was booking a showing or answering the many questions we had leading up to our closing. Her contractor recommendations were also a huge help during the inspection process and after closing. We couldn’t be happier to have found the perfect home for us and we will definitely recommend Maggie to family, friends and anyone who asks! Chelsea B.

Working with Maggie was such a pleasure. I had worked with other agents in the past and Maggie definitely stood out as an agent I needed by my side through the home buying process. As a first time home buyer, I really needed an advocate and someone to hold my hand through the process and Maggie did just that. Maggie is super knowledgeable about the area, architecture, and real estate in general and I felt like Maggie truly had my best interests at heart. She explained what I should be looking out for and helped me navigate a very daunting process. Buying a home as a first time home buyer was such an emotional process and Maggie was so thoughtful, available and supportive. She was quick to respond to texts, always made herself available to talk or go see homes together, and was proactive in helping me find the perfect home. I felt like Maggie was truly supportive throughout the process and I was so grateful for her expertise and support throughout the process. I ended up with the perfect home that I’m so happy with and I owe that, in large part, to Maggie’s unique guidance! I would emphatically recommend her to friends and family in meeting their real estate needs. Maggie is a gem! hleddington

Maggie truly was amazing to go through the process of selling our home with. She successfully sold our home while being professional and responsive right from the beginning. From the initial meeting we had with her to our closing date, we knew that Maggie had our family’s best interests in mind. The marketing that was provided, her determination and professionalism resulted with us having multiple offers within five days of our home being listed! She provided open communication throughout the entire process, where we felt all our questions were answered and any concerns were addressed right away. Selling a home can be extremely stressful and Maggie alleviated our stress and worries with ease. We can’t say it enough how amazing Maggie was throughout our home selling process! Allessiomia

"I want to write and give a big “Thank you” to both Dani Guilian and her partner Maggie, who just sold my parents’ house! I am so grateful for their hard work and excellent communication! I live in Oregon and the house is in Pittsfield, so everything was conducted by email and text. We also had another signer-because the house was owned by a trust, but they were undaunted by these complications. I feel that we ended up with a much better product thanks to their intervention and photography. And I also feel they brought us the right buyers and kept them interested and the sale moving forward even with a few inspection glitches. I found them both to be extremely attentive, hard workers, creative, and excellent communicators. I would highly recommend their services to anyone selling a house. I am just extremely pleased and thrilled with this house sale and the way they worked with me. I was amazed at the hours they put in and the way they were always available to discuss strategies and explain process." Juliana Cuyler

"Maggie was absolutely outstanding! We could not have imagined or wished for a better person to help us find our dream home and represent us through the stressful process of purchasing our first home. Her knowledge of the market and the region were incredibly helpful. The unique skillset though, that set her apart from every other real estate agent, is her solid understanding of the structural condition of a building and the potential risks and costs that come with buying an old house (we bought a colonial from 1890) combined with her contagious calmness and confidence that helps every first time homebuyer get through this. We put our full trust in Maggie and were able to ask all the questions - no matter how small or unimportant they might have seemed. Thanks to Maggie, we were able to find our dream house and purchase it within our budget and means. She negotiated for us and advised us throughout the entire process. Don't hesitate to hire Maggie to find your dream house in the Berkshires! She's the Best!" Antonia Nahas

Our agents Maggie and Dani were wonderful Joshua Yerkes Annamarie Yerkes

We worked with Maggie to buy a home in the Berkshires after relocating from Boston. From start to finish, Maggie's guidance and advice was invaluable to us and helped us to get our first offer accepted! We have now closed and started moving into our home and could not be happier. Maggie helped us with a very complex transaction due to some issues with the property. We are so glad to be in our home now and grateful to have had Maggie as our realtor.

This is our second experience with Maggie Gavin and Sotheby’s.Maggie is the ultimate professional offering great advice and guiding us through what could have been a difficult process. We were very happy with the photographer and the pictures of our home. If we need services in the future we will always make Sotheby’s and Maggie our first call. Michele and John Gottung Michele Gottung John Gottung

Maggie is an exceptional realtor. She is honest, encouraging, and understanding. She got a sense for who we are and what we value, and was able to guide us until we found the right home. We would gladly use Maggie again in buying or selling our home - she possesses a powerful combination of personal care and market savviness, and she made the stressful process of home-buying into a rewarding experience for us. Joel Bergeland Ryan Laboy

Maggie Gavin with William Pitt Sotheby's was great. She definitely spent the extra time needed without questions and was always on top of everything throughout the process. I have dealt with many real estate agents throughout the country and Maggie stands above the rest. When needing a real estate professional in the Berkshires She is my go to for myself, my family and anyone that I can refer. Michael Sohl

First, Maggie Gavin, our realtor, was a professional through and through. From the first time we met throughout the entire sales process, she was the perfect person to represent us and our property. Second, the breadth of the reach of the Sotheby’s organization meant that our property could be viewed by potential buyers from around the world. It has strong name recognition and carries a weight unlike any other real estate organization. I would use them again in a heartbeat. Vincent DiCianni Douglas Knapp

Maggie Barry Gavin was superb! The entire experience was the best from start to finish! Pasquale Arace Jennifer Arace

Maggie is more than anyone could ask for in a realtor. I have now been through the buying, and selling process with Maggie and both experiences have been exceptional; stress free and low impact all while being well informed and updated along the way. I will continue using Maggie/ Sotheby’s for all of my real estate needs, and would highly recommended you do as well. - Kris K. Kristofer Kohlenberger

Maggie Gavin was amazing to work with! My husband and I were moving to Berkshire County from outside of Boston and were not familiar with the area at all. Maggie not only helped us find an amazing home in our budget, but she gave us an excellent introduction to Pittsfield and the Berkshires in general. She was incredibly helpful, answered all of our questions, showed us quite a few great homes, and was there for us every step of the way. We were first time homebuyers and would have been completely overwhelmed without Maggie's guidance and expertise. We are still settling into our home and we love it. I cannot say enough about how great it was to work with her and definitely recommend Maggie if you are looking to buy in the Berkshires! William Bateson Elayna Bartolomeo

Maggie was very professional and helpful during the whole purchase process! Craig Southard Mandy Bereny

Maggie helped us find a house that met our needs in a very tough market. She is dedicated, knowledgeable, and easy to work with. We had a lot of questions, and Maggie always made herself available to us and took the time to make sure we understood our options - she never made us feel talked down to. She knows the Berkshires well and is passionate about helping people find their fit, and it helped us get excited about relocating to a new part of the country. We felt valued by Maggie, who showed us kindness and generosity at every juncture. We are so grateful to have gotten the opportunity to work with her. Ryan LaBoy Joel Bergeland

Maggie was knowledgeable, professional and very easy to work with. I valued her honesty and her opinion. She helped me sell my house quickly with an exceptional offer and then helped me purchase another home in a very competitive market. Maggie always responded quickly and took the time to explain and answer all my questions. I highly recommend Maggie! MelindaFinnerty

Maggie made selling our home easy and stress free. Because of her professionalism and expertise we were able to go under contract within the first week for over asking. Highly recommend Maggie! anthonyringie

Maggie was very professional and always looking out for our best interest. She was very responsive, always answering our calls, night and day, 7 days a week. We appreciate everything she and Leslie did to facilitate the smooth sale of our property. We would highly recommend her services if you are looking to sell your home. Kristen and Kevin Kevin and Kristen Zimmer

Maggie Gavin has helped us with a home purchase and now a property purchase. We knew the in's and out's of buying a home since we have done that a number of times before. But purchasing property to use as our "nature get-away" was a new venture for us. Maggie lifted up issues we would have never thought about and her advise was invaluable. Her attention to detail on both the home buy and then the property purchase made the process very easy for us and made us feel quite secure. Maggie responded to our needs in a very timely manner as she expressed care and empathy throughout our time together. Scott and Marjorie Shreve

My wife and I moved to the Berkshires from the Midwest. Maggie cared for all the details of our condo purchase that we were unable to address because of distance. She provided needed suggestions on everything from insurance agents to setting up our utility services. We moved during the height of Covid-19 and Maggie helped all go as smooth as possible. Her local knowledge and willingness to help out in a timely manner was invaluable. She is the perfect combination of caring and professional. zuser20200118172436292

The very best in the Berkshires! We were referred to Maggie by our realtor in Boston. The Berkshires were new to us, and she was really fantastic about giving us the lay of the land, listening to what we wanted in a home, and guiding us through the process. We found the place that was perfect for us. She’s smart, professional, honest and kind. —Ted & Dmitry TedStephens III

Maggie was a pleasure to work with. She was very easy to communicate with, and always gave updates every step of the way. She seemed to be very detail oriented, and gave as much attention to my little house, as she would a million dollar listing. If I sell again, I will ask her to represent me again. matthewcc35

After having previously worked with another realtor who clearly did not have our best interests in mind, Maggie was like a breath of fresh air. Not only was she professional, punctual, and knowledgeable about the Berkshires, she was also a genuinely kind and fun person to be around. I cannot understate how much easier Maggie made the process of buying our first home. AdamHughes11

Maggie was an outstanding realtor to have had in our search for buying a home. She always called with new listings or updates and was quick to respond to all questions. She made time for us and walked us through the entire buying process with a calming influence, making sure every detail was clear and always with that reassuring smile. Maggie is incredibly friendly, knowledgeable, professional and mostly honest. We highly recommend Maggie and felt very fortunate to have had her. Thank you Maggie rosewood120

It was great working with Maggie. She knows the Berkshires very well, took the time to understand what we were looking for, gave us excellent advice and walked us through the whole process. She is incredibly responsive and was a real pleasure! We highly recommend Maggie without hesitation! bkjcacec

Maggie was excellent to work with. She only showed us homes in our price range and that met our needs (unless we requested to see something specific). She walked us through every step of the process and was always available for questions. She gave us great advice on price negotiation and really saved us a ton of money. She was also able to set us up with a couple of people to get some things done around the house after purchase. Couldn't say more good things about Maggie. daryl shreve

Maggie goes above and beyond every turn of the way. Our buying process was seamless, and she worked hard to ensure we got the right price. She’s responsive, knowledgeable, relatable, and kind. We wouldn’t work with anyone else— she’s the best realtor in Berkshire County. Ashley Southard

Everything you need to sell your property. Very knowledgeable, organized and professional. Easy to work with and current. Uses technology and a full network of resources to assist in everything you need to sell your home. Above and beyond. joe1399

I have worked with Maggie on a number of real estate transactions. She's extremely responsive and is always looking out for her client's best interest. I highly recommend Maggie whether you are buying or selling. I wouldn't use anyone else! patcarhart

She was very helpful with every step of my purchase. She helped and guided me with various mortgage, attorney, house insurance and house inspection options. She responded to my questions so promptly. I would definitely recommend her services. drdoltani

Maggie Barry was our real estate broker for our first home. She is very knowledgable about the real estate market. She goes way above and beyond what would be normally expected of a typical agent. She makes herself available nearly 24 hours a day, and always responds to questions very fast. She was our buyers agent and she very affectively represented us and our needs as buyers, and we didn't have a typical or easy selling process. She made herself available for house showings often and on nearly a moments notice. She really went out of her way to serve us and make us feel calm and at home in this CRAZY home buying process. I highly recommend her services if you want the best possible agent on your side. chukandsarah

Maggie was an incredible resource when selling my first home. Throughout the process, she offered invaluable advice and upheld a kind of professionalism that is so difficult to find. What I appreciated the most was her availability and transparency; she was able to answer my questions quickly, and she kept me looped in to all important details. I would highly recommend Maggie to anyone looking to sell their home! Ashley Southard

Punctual, reliable, knowledgeable, and professional...just a few of the words we would use to describe Maggie, as she guided us through finding the right town, and perfect house for our young family. We are new to Western Mass and her familiarity with the Berkshires was a huge benefit when trying to narrow down homes to view. We had limited time due to commuting from New York City, and Maggie made herself available to accommodate our schedule. We will recommend her to family, friends, and we will definitely use her if we have the joy of house hunting again. Sarah Cox

Moved to Western Mass, out of retirement, to continue my career as a healthcare professional. Apartments in this area very hard to find. Maggie found a condo in a converted middle school, close to the hospital, at an acceptable price, and handled all the necessary particulars and negotiations. I came up from NYC once a week to settle things. I was very fortunate to have Maggie as my realtor. David Keith

Maggie helped me purchase my first home and I can't speak highly enough of her! She was extremely helpful and understanding during the tough process of purchasing real estate when you don't know the area very well! I can be very critical, fault-finding and she was very considerate and perceptive throughout the process. Maggie knows the area well and is dedicated to her clients. She works hard and is dependable and gracious too! Anyone would be lucky to work with Maggie in there search for a new home! Nicoleabuchanan
