We worked with Dave and Amy to purchase a home in 2018 and chose to work with again to sell our condo in 2020. Both the home purchase and the condo sale were incredibly smooth and pleasurable experiences. We could not have asked for a more wonderful team. Amy and Dave work in perfect harmony throughout every step of the process. Their knowledge of the market and work ethic are truly unparalleled! We highly recommend Dave and Amy Chung to sell your home or find your dream home!

Dave and Amy are wonderful on so many levels. I truly believe they are the perfect balance that makes working with them fantastic. Dave is well versed on the statistical analysis of the market. He is great at reading clients and dealing with negotiations. Amy is wonderful in prepping the house, knowing what you are looking for and understanding what a modern family needs in a home. They also have extensive renovation experience which was invaluable for us as we were looking for a historic home that needed updating. We truly enjoyed having a husband and wife team, it brings more perspective to the process. We are forever grateful to them!

Dave and Amy were a wonderful pair to work with while we sold our home. They were available, in tune with the market and the area, and in result we sold our home quicker than we could have ever imagined! If we ever return to the Norshore we will absolutely be enlisting help from the Chungs again.

Dave and Amy were there for us every step of the way in getting our home sold during the challenging time of the pandemic. They guided us through preparation of our home for putting it on the market, including recommendations for decluttering, repairs, and staging. When on the market, Dave and Amy were incredibly knowledgeable about market activity in our area and price range, and also actively sought feedback from potential buyers and their real estate agents following showings. Finally, Dave and Amy were strong advocates for us during offer negotiations, through the inspection, and into the closing. Their thoughtfulness, knowledge, attention to detail, and accessibility to talk through all our questions and concerns will have us recommending Dave and Amy to everyone we know for selling their own homes. Thank you Dave and Amy!!

When my wife and I decided to sell our home on the North Shore, we wanted to interview several real estate agents in order to find the one that would represent the best fit for us. Our first interview was with Dave and Amy Chung, who had been highly recommended by some good friends. It was very clear to us that Dave and Amy knew the local market extremely well, and they were honest and sincere people with an excellent marketing plan to help us sell our home. We were so impressed with Dave and Amy and connected so well, that we decided to move forward with listing our home with them, and we didn't even interview anyone else. We now know we simply could not have made a better choice! We are confident that you will be pleased with their excellent communication, attention to detail, and their service oriented attitude towards their clients.

Dave has a keen grasp of the real estate business - he knows the market and he knows homes. Having worked with other agents, it's clear that Dave is uniquely knowledgeable about the wide range of things required for a successful (and favorable) real estate transaction. Most importantly, he shares his expertise in the most client-friendly manner. Dave's represented me in my most recent 2 transactions and I've been very satisfied and would fully recommend him to anyone looking for an agent.

If you are looking for the best realtor, look no farther! Dave was a delight to work with. His knowledge and expertise was phenomenal. Dave was there to advise me every step of the way despite my living 1700 miles away. My cross country move couldn’t have gone more smoothly thanks to Dave’s efforts. Dave promptly replied to my emails and texts. I will definitely recommend Dave to anyone I meet who needs a realtor and will use his services again in the future.

Dave and Amy took over our listing after we had a difficult experience with another realtor. They gave us constructive feedback about adjustments we could make to our home and helped us position our house in the current market. They were extremely responsive to calls and emails and always willing to put in the extra effort whether it was meeting multiple salespeople for carpet bids or arranging for a painter and handyman to make improvements. Dave and Amy made sure all the details leading up to closing were in order, worked seamlessly with our attorney and ultimately helped us close the deal. They were great to work with every step of the way.

Dave and Amy Chung were the agents we used to sell our house and buy our new home. We had an exceptional experience with them – they are professional and realistic in their approach and they understand the marketplace and provide valuable advice and direction. They provide service that is above and beyond what is expected, from providing clear direction on how to prepare your home to sell to staging the home with the appropriate accents creating a warm and inviting experience for buyers. They alleviate stress buy by making themselves available to meet contractors when you can’t be there and they have a vast array of resources and contacts that can be used throughout the selling or buying processes. Their knowledge on potential rehab and renovation project costs was also helpful when seeing homes we were interested in. It was truly a pleasure to work with them, we would highly recommend them!

Dave and Amy Chung sold our home in spring 2019 and helped us to find our new home that fits our family perfectly. Their professionalism, attention to detail, and accessibility made the process as easy as possible. They went above and beyond in several ways, including providing flowers for our showings, their own furniture to stage the house- at one point Amy was using her leaf-blower in our backyard! We recommend them highly and would give them more than 5 stars if we could.
