Tim Donovan works real estate out of Quincy, and the through-line across 14 Google reviews since 2022 is how much hand-holding first-time and out-of-state buyers say he does — patient, responsive, and quick to explain each step. Several reviewers leaned on him to bridge a distance gap: in a 2023 review, a couple living in Washington DC said they bid on and bought a house sight-unseen, crediting their confidence entirely to Tim (he even sent a Mother's Day card, the reviewer noted); in a 2025 review, another relocating buyer said he explained Massachusetts-specific real estate laws and negotiated successfully against four competing offers. That pattern continues in the most recent reviews — one from this April says he followed up promptly after a home inspection to make sure every required fix got handled, and another from June describes a first-time buyer whose offer was accepted on the first try. He also works both sides of a sale. In a 2022 review, a seller described him running a full marketing push for a condo listing — professional photography, social media and print ads, a weekend open house — and bringing buyers back to the table after an initial deal fell through. In a 2025 review, a fellow listing agent wrote about working the other side of a transaction and called him knowledgeable and responsive. There's no negative review on file across the 14 on record. Worth confirming his current availability and fee structure directly, since none of the reviews go into detail on either.
Tim is an excellent realtor! My wife and I were first time homebuyers and needed a lot of help through the process. Tim was patient, thoughtful, and quick to respond to our questions. He was thorough in his research when coming up with an offer which was accepted on our first try! He then helped us through the entire process of closing, ensured that we had the connections to other industry experts, and knew what to expect through the process. We loved working with him.
Tim is fantastic! He is professional, responsive, and incredibly knowledgeable. He made the entire process smooth and easy. He was incredibly patient, honest and truly looked out for my best interest. As a first-time home buyer, I had a lot of questions, but Tim walked me through every step of the process and helped me find the perfect home for me. I highly recommend Tim to anyone looking to buy or sell!
Tim is professional, always on time and was very responsive whenever we had any questions. He followed up promptly after the home inspection and made sure all the required fixes were taken care of. Buying a home from out of state is a huge challenge, but Tim made it manageable with video walkthroughs and keeping us in the loop at every step.
We connected with Tim in the middle of our search for a rental home, and we only wish we had started with him from the very beginning. His guidance, knowledge, and efficiency saved us an incredible amount of time and made the entire process so much easier. Tim was truly a game-changer, and we couldn’t recommend him more highly.
We had an amazing experience working with Tim on the purchase of our first home. The entire process was seamless from start to finish. He was incredibly communicative, always keeping us informed and answering every question thoroughly so we felt confident at each step. His professionalism, patience, and guidance truly made a big milestone feel easy. We couldn’t have asked for a better agent and would highly recommend Tim to anyone looking to buy or sell a home.
