My fiancé and I closed on a home located in Portland, ME last month with Chris and Places in Maine all the way from Minnesota. As first time home buyers living out of state, we are very fortunate to have worked with such a reliable, resourceful, and trustworthy team. From our first meeting with Chris on Google Meet to even today, Chris has gone above and beyond to support us through each step of the home buying process. Not only was Chris very responsive to our emails and texts, he initiated a lot of our communication by simply checking in with us to see if we had any questions. When touring homes for us, Chris was honest about his thoughts on each home he visited and we fully trusted his knowledge and ability to quickly identify the pros and cons of the homes based on our criteria and expectations. The moment we decided it was time to have Chris provide us with a virtual tour of the Portland home, we texted him that morning and he uploaded a video within an hour and was ready to help us put in an offer that day. Since we are out of state, Chris and Paul made it a priority in their schedules to meet up with my future in-laws and a local inspector to be part of the inspection process on our behalf. While we wait to get to Maine, Chris has offered to take time out of his busy schedule to check on our home and even shoveled our entire driveway after a big snowfall last week. The level of support and kindness we've received from Chris was beyond what we expected and we are so grateful to have had such a positive experience buying our first home with Chris and Places in Maine!

Paul and Chris are amazing to work with. Not only are they kind, generous people, they went above and beyond to make sure everything for our first home buying process went smoothly. We honestly cannot recommend them highly enough, we absolutely loved working with them! Paul was our point person for most of the process, and he is an absolute delight to work with - kind, knowledgeable, professional, and honest. As first time buyers, we had no idea what we were doing, and Paul answered every question we had and then some! He checked in with us every step of the way, and went out of his way to make sure we were well informed and on track the whole time. Many, many thanks to Paul, Chris, and the Places in Maine team - if you are looking for a realtor, you won't find better!

OMG, best realtor experience ever and I have bought or sold 8 prior homes! We tried to sell a rental home with another realtor through the Summer and Fall and there were no takers after 6 months. We hired Chris, who had the additional burden of the holidays and winter approaching. He staged the house and created an amazing/humorous video and print media to advertise the property along with 2 open houses. We had an offer within 2 weeks and closed in 6 weeks. Chris is sincere, genuine and a great communicator. You’ll be fortunate to have him on your side!
