Choosing Shelly Hardy as a real estate agent was one of the best moves I have ever made. She worked with me to both sell my cottage in Northampton, MA (co-owned by my parents) and buy a new house in Florence with my partner. And, we successfully managed to do both in just a few months!

From start to finish, Shelly impressed me. She was able to work well across generations supporting different personalities and needs, and lovingly and generously fielding questions from my father (a retired lawyer with meticulous attention to detail). She was so patient, kind and non-judgmental. Shelly was extremely knowledgeable about the local market, and always responsive (remarkably quickly!) and well-connected in the area. Anything we needed done – a good lawyer, floors refinishing, fire alarm installation – Shelly had someone who we could call to do it. And, when I told them who we were working with, they all exclaimed “I love Shelly!” and somehow found time to fit us in, no matter how busy they were.

Shelly was not afraid to get her hands dirty – my partner and I both were amazed when at the first house she showed us, she leapt over a table and crawled on the cobwebby floor of the basement to check for water in the corner. That moment solidified for us that we had chosen the right real estate agent.

Shelly consistently demonstrated integrity, and was always professional. My favorite part of working with Shelly was her laugh – she laughed easily and often, and made a process that could be quite stressful feel joyful and fun.

It was such a gift to work with Shelly – I cannot recommend her (and Maple and Main) highly enough.

Shelly was fantastic -
She personally staged the house and arranged for professional photographs -
I received multiple offers immediately.

She was professional, supportive, knowledgable, and extremely hard working.

I recommended her without hesitation for anyone looking to buy or sell a property!
