Why Work With Us?

As neophytes coming down to central Massachusetts from the wilds of Vermont, we were lucky to find Alyx. She is smart, responsive, and best of all, has an easy sense of humor— a great asset in the sometimes tense world of real estate negotiation and closing.

Alyx is absolutely wonderful! She's incredibly knowledgable, professional, and responsive. We were first-time home buyers with a thousand questions, and Alyx answered all of our questions and concerns every step of the way. I can't recommend her highly enough! Thanks, Alyx!

In 2007, our family began an epic search for a home in the Northampton area. We met Alyx through a professional recommendation from someone else in a related area of the housing field with whom we'd worked for years. This was one of the best referrals I've ever received. Alyx was such a cheerful human being, a patient and relaxing presence in the midst of stressful stuff. Among us in the family were real estate newbies and very seasoned buyers, and Alyx was professional, knowledgable, and accessible to all of us, meeting us at our individual levels. Because of Alyx, we found a home we loved, and it was so obvious that Alyx loved helping us. When we finally come back from the West Coast, guess who's the first person we're calling for help? Thanks, Alyx!

Alyx was our broker when we looking for and then purchased a new condo for our daughter. When we were looking we appreciated having access to her extensive knowledge of the real estate market in our area and new properties as they became available. We decided to purchase a property but finalizing the sale was not a simple matter. We depended on Alyx to advise us and negotiate on our behalf. She virtually held our hand every step of the way and responded almost immediately to our concerns questions. We literally never had to wait for her to return a call or e-mail and would recommend Alyx without reservation!

My experience with Alyx was wonderful! She was quite knowledgeable and had a strong sense of urgency with selling my home as well as making herself available to answer any questions or assist when needed. I would highly recommend Alyx!

Alyx is extremely professional, knowledgeable, and quick to respond to questions and requests. I feel very fortunate to have been referred to her. I give her my highest recommendation!

Alyx was just great. She was always on top of things thinking of things that we didn't right up to and after closing. She was available, responsive and very accommodating. Most importantly she was honest and reliable. I will call her again if we ever need a realtor and will recommend her without hesitation.

If you want someone that will work hard at selling your house, then you need Alyx Akers as your agent. Couldn't have had a better experience. Glad I went with Goggins and their excellent staff. Highly recommend Alyx!

Not only was Alyx extremely knowledgeable in her field and very professional, she was also personable, and was quick in answering any questions or concerns that we had along the way of finding and purchasing our home. She also made this process less daunting, and for all of these great attributes, I am truly grateful to her.

As first-time home-buyers, we were so glad to have Alyx on our side! She guided us through a months-long search, offers, inspections, and negotiations -- always with a smile, a clear head, sound advice, no pressure, no BS, and lots of patience. During a busy season, she took the time to understand what was important to us, and helped us find and purchase a home that made sense for our goals, our budget, and our life. We also appreciated that she was knowledgeable about topics ranging from rental properties to furnaces, and she was able to put us in touch with excellent professionals who could help us evaluate potential renovations and repairs to be done post-closing. Alyx worked smoothly with sellers' agents, our lawyer, our inspector, and everyone else involved. She's a total professional, a highly effective ally, and a true pleasure to be around; working with Alyx was a great decision for us.
