## The honest read

Remmes & Co. is a Boston-based residential real estate brokerage led by broker Chris Remmes, working buy, sell and rental transactions across Boston, Cambridge, Somerville, Brookline and a wide list of surrounding towns including Newton, Quincy, Medford and Malden. The company says it has been named a top-ranked broker and recognized for its client experience by Boston Magazine and The Wall Street Journal.

What repeats across more than a hundred Google reviews dating back to 2021 is how many clients come back. One family worked with Chris across fifteen years and half a dozen transactions, buying, selling and renting together in Charlestown along the way. Another bought a Beacon Hill condo with him in 2011 and returned to sell the same condo in 2026. The specifics echo from account to account: he personally negotiates, coordinates staging and contractors, and stays reachable through closing — clients relocating from Italy and New Jersey both describe video showings and steady updates that made a remote search work. His team, including Sam and Jack, draws the same praise for responsiveness on both sales and rentals.

First-time buyers come up often too. A 2023 review called him "SUPERB" for guiding a search outside his usual neighborhoods and handling the legal, financial and emotional sides of a first purchase in under a month; another first-time buyer credits him with patiently explaining a process she didn't yet understand. On the selling side, clients describe him arranging staging, keeping them informed through negotiations, and closing quickly once a price was set.

Nothing negative turns up among the reviews quoted here, spanning buyers, sellers, landlords and renters alike. Its Massachusetts real estate broker license is active, and Google shows a 5-star rating from 128 ratings.

Anyone considering Remmes & Co. is likely working with a small, hands-on team built around one broker's relationships — worth confirming upfront who handles the day-to-day if Chris is juggling several active deals at once.

**Strengths:**
- Repeat clients — one family cites 15 years and half a dozen transactions
- Responsive team — reviewers across years cite quick communication through closing
- Remote relocations — video showings helped clients moving from abroad
