Alissa Christie

Quick Turnaround. We hired Alissa to sell our home in January, typically a slower real estate market. She offered suggestions on what we needed to do to sell the house and told us that if these things were done we would have a better chance of selling our property. We did as "instructed" and we received a full price offer three days after the property was listed.
The purchasers were first time home buyers and she was clear with what we could expect during the process. Our home sold right on schedule.
Alissa seems to have a good grasp on the real estate market and all that is involved in the process of selling/purchasing a home.

Confident ~ Collaborative ~ Caring ~ Competitive ~ Creative. Alissa is one of the most polished professionals I have ever had the chance to work with and I work in one of the Big 4 Management Consulting firms globally. Her level of expertise is unmatched in the market.

From the initial conversation, to the market report, to the recommended strategy - we were impressed every step and felt comfortable as a family. Alissa helped answer every and all questions that we had and created a culture and environment of trust and safety.

Buying, selling and moving is documented as one of the top 5 most stressful life events and Alissa was able to make the situation easy and at times fun! Her ability to manage the process end to end was phenomenal - from the initial paperwork, the staging of the home, the photography and the negotiations, we never were in a position feeling uncomfortable or uninformed. She was always just a text or call away.

She is the best of the best and if you have an opportunity to work with her we would highly recommend!

My wife and I couldn’t have asked for a better real estate experience as first-time homebuyers. Alissa was recommended to us by my parents, who had a wonderful experience with her, and she more than lived up to the praise.

From day one, both Alissa and Hannah made the process feel so easy and stress-free. They were always available with immediate answers to all our questions, and we never felt overwhelmed. Their advice helped us focus on the right homes to pursue, and their presence at viewings made us feel confident every step of the way.

Thanks to Alissa’s expertise, with Hannah’s support, we found a home we’re absolutely thrilled with. In such a competitive market, it was reassuring to know we had Alissa in our corner.

We can’t recommend her highly enough!

Great experience as first time homebuyers. I highly recommend working with Alissa! We were first time homebuyers and she and Hannah were always available to answer our MANY questions. They were responsive, knowledgeable of the area, and great to work with. Alissa helped us put together a competitive offer and officially close on our first home! Thank you Alissa and Hannah!

Top notch experience. Alissa and her team were fantastic to work with. Our search initially started a year ago but we needed to put it on pause and Alissa was very patient and supportive and never pressured us. We were purchasing in MA but live in NY so it was difficult for us to view properties in person. Alissa would preview the property for us and send us video walk thrus for us to review. She provided great guidance when we were making our offer, and we were ultimately successful. After getting under contract she helped us with the appraisal and gaining access to the property a few times prior to close. Everything that we needed assistance with during the entire process, Alissa and team were there to help. They made it a very smooth experience.

Best Realtor Ever! Alissa is the perfect combination of professional and easy going. Truly felt like we were working with a friend! She is incredibly efficient and responsive at all hours of the day. Her knowledge and expertise helped us secure our dream home in the midst of a very competitive market. She also has an incredible professional network - she hooked us up with our mortgage team and closing attorney, both of which we loved working with. Highly recommend!!

Attentive and Amazing Team . I have had a short period of time working with Alissa Christie and her team but it was well organized and obviously worked. They found a home for me that fit my budget and needs. They are still in touch with me now making sure everything is going well. Not to mention the welcome basket was AMAZING! So thoughtful and they found a great mortgage broker for me to work with. All in all I highly recommend Alissa Christie and will be using her when I move again to my next home!

We chose Alissa as our broker because she came highly recommended both for her professionalism, competence as a realtor and lawyer, and her ability to find the middle ground so necessary in selling a home. She was incredibly responsive and was 'in person' for all showings. We've bought and sold many homes in our days and would rank her at the top of our experiences!

We just wanted to take a moment to show my appreciation for Alissa Christie & team! We had always dreamed of living in a coastal town on the north shore of Massachusetts with my spouse and Alissa made it happen! Alissa was the ultimate professional and made us feel like we were her main focus, during the entire buying process. She was always available to chat and more than willing to help with any/all of our concerns. We made our offer to purchase during a very competitive time and in a coveted area … which we won, due to Alissa’s structuring. We felt SO comfortable working with Alissa throughout the entire process and are much better off today, because we had this opportunity! Thanks, Alissa!

My wife and I were lucky enough to meet Alissa Christie, when searching for a home in the Newburyport MA area. Alissa showed us multiple homes on day 1 of our search, but what brought her above the rest was her dedication to what WE wanted in a home. She spent time to dig into our needs and knew the local market like the back of her hand. Alissa was positive and methodical throughout the entire home buying experience, handling negotiations like a true professional. We continued chatting with Alissa, even after the closing, and we now consider her a good friend. We couldn’t be happier and would recommend Alissa to anyone who is searching the New England area for a GREAT real estate agent!

We interviewed 4 realtors before listing with Alissa at Bentley's. Alissa's professionalism, preparedness, and personable manner, together with her background in law as well as real estate, convinced us she would be a great choice. Backed also by a strong team, we were well-supported with great staging advice, video shoots, and guidance throughout the process, achieving a sales price we were happy with and a happy buyer as well. First-class all the way!

Alissa was our selling agent late 2020 and early 2021. From when we met till the end of the deal, she was professional and knowledgeable. She knew the current market conditions and was on top of all aspects of the deal. From when we said "lets sell it" to being listed it took 7 days, including staging, photos, virtual tour and the amazing exterior drone shots. You will not find a better agent then her.

Alissa and the team at Bentley's gave us the guidance and nudge we needed to make our dreams a reality. For years, we were searching for the right opportunity to upgrade our home, neighborhood, and children's school system. Alissa was able to simultaneously get us top dollar for our townhouse and guide us through the purchase of our "forever" home.

Alissa helped us navigate our home buying process with her incredible skill set. We had a few challenges during the process, and with each challenge she knew exactly how to handle it. Had someone as knowledgeable and motivated as Alissa not been our realtor, I am confident we would not have ended up in our current home. After we moved in, she continued to stay connected with us and we were able to take advantage of her local knowledge for recommendations and referrals.

If you are looking for a realtor that is professional, knowledgeable, and caring Alissa Christie is the one. Alissa sold my townhouse in North Andover and found a beautiful condo for me in Newburyport. She has a professional photographer that highlighted my NA residence and the offers came pouring in after the first open house. She took the time to find out exactly what I wanted in a home and found the perfect place for me. She followed through from offer to closing and did not let anything slip through the cracks. She is the best!!!!

Alissa was our realtor, local guide, and overall real estate therapist for the last 6 months. She was a total delight to work with. She knows the North Shore area SO WELL, and could tell us the pros and cons of every neighborhood we were looking at. She is clearly a local, and enabled us to buy with confidence once we found the right property. Also, Alissa - and her fantastic assistant Amy! - were available day and night. Whenever we had a question or wanted to see a property, Alissa and Amy were immediately on it. Ultimately, our closing process went smoothly, and that was all thanks to Alissa’s expert management. I would recommend Alissa to literally anyone and everyone looking North of Boston!

Alissa Christie is absolutely wonderful to work with! Beginning my home search was a bit intimidating, but along with her extensive knowledge about the market, her calm nature and professionalism, helped me so much with this process. Alissa was very responsive and let me know what to expect during the home buying process. She attentively listened to my needs and budget and recommended an outstanding local lender. She kept me apprised about available appointments and always let me know as soon as a new one came on the market. Alissa was honest, forthright and went above and beyond to help me with my search - I highly recommend her to anyone who is looking to buy and/or sell!

We were so lucky to have found Alissa! I honestly don’t think everything would have happened without her! We were able to buy a new home for our growing family and sell our house quickly and easily on short notice. She is very organized and well connected in Newburyport which made everything from last minute fixes at our house to beautiful listing pictures and finally selecting the best buyer for our house a breeze. Did I mention she got us 8 offers and our house sold over asking? We couldn’t be happier with Alissa and her team!

From the minute we met Alissa we knew she was the one we wanted helping us buy our new home in Newburyport. Her local knowledge, expert business skills and friendly approach made us feel comfortable throughout the entire process. The entire office at Bentley's was extremely professional, helpful, and equally as kind. If you are looking in Newburyport, there is no point in looking any further, Bentley's and its owner Alissa are the best of the best for sure!
