About The Max Dublin Team
|
MAX DUBLIN | A native of Cambridge, growing up near Fresh Pond in the heart of Huron Village. He has intimate knowledge of the city and can add both insight and a local perspective based on having spent the better part of his life in the area. He grew up going to both private and public schools in Cambridge and later returned to receive his undergraduate degree from Lesley University.
Max ventured into real estate shortly after buying his first home and becoming intrigued with the idea of being something different than your average Realtor. After a first hand experience of meeting numerous people in the industry that did not impress him, he felt there was a need for more good agents and there was certainly a place for a person like him in real estate. He has quickly become an incredibly successful agent over the last ten years and a favorite for other brokers to work with. Over the last four years he sold 155 properties with a gross sales volume of over $100M. He attributes his success not only to hard work but also taking time to connect with his clients and make sure they know he is working for them. He has worked with a variety of clients, including first time home buyers, where he draws on his background in teaching to make sure that all parts of the transaction are fully understood. He takes the time to go through all of the details from start to finish in order ensuring that his clients understand everything they are agreeing to before signing anything. He also enjoys working with sellers, where his professionalism and attention ensure that all aspects of the home selling process go as smoothly as possible. Before working in residential real estate, Max was an elementary school teacher with 5th & 6th grade students. As a teacher his patience and his ability enabled him to work with a variety of personalities. He has brought these people skills to his career in real estate and takes pride and gratification in helping people work through what can be a difficult and challenging process. He resides in East Arlington and when he is not working, enjoys spending time with his wife and three young sons as well as playing golf and basketball.
