What clients say about this agent....
As repeat clients we would definitely recommend Pam to anyone looking in Hingham and the South Shore market! She knows the market inside and out and is truly committed to achieving the best outcome for her clients.
We used Pam Bates to both purchase and sell a historic home in HIngham. Through the lengthy process of renovation, Pam stood by us and gave us the benefit of her extensive knowledge, helping us to find the best solutions to the innumerable "this old house" problems that came up - far above just being a listing service. I would recommend Pam for any real estate transaction you're contemplating. Five stars from start to finish.
Working with Pam was an absolute pleasure. We valued her experience and extensive knowledge of our local area. Pams guidance and responsiveness to our questions (day or night) was always appreciated. Parting with the family home can be difficult but Pams calm demeanor will put a client at ease. Pam was there every step of the way. If you want results, I highly recommend working with Pam Bates!
We could not have asked for a better agent than Pam - Thoughtful, attentive, flexible, deeply knowledgeable about the South Shore, pushed us when we needed to be pushed, cautioned us when we needed to pause, responsive and patient.Pam is a partner and an advocate in the real estate process. We were moving from out of state and needed an agent that truly knew the area. Pam spent an inordinate amount of time helping educate us about the area and leveraging her contacts for current and upcoming properties.As an extra bonus - she is a joy to be with and has a great sense of humor which is helpful in a stressful move! You cannot go wrong with having her as your real estate partner.
I had an unexpected opportunity relocate and Pam was recommended to me to help me sell my home. From our first meeting, when we reviewed my property and expectations, to the Open House 4 weeks later, and a signed Purchase and Sale two days after that, Pam kept me involved and informed. Her instincts are spot-on, and her advice was invaluable. Pam made a process that can be so stressful easy and manageable for me. I cant thank her enough.
We are first time homeowners and met Pam through Zillow. She took us to our first open house and right away we knew that she would be the one to help guide us through the process of finding our first home. She was extremely knowledgeable about the market in the area and gave us excellent advice about location, timing, and guided us into the most perfect home we could ever want. This process could have been overwhelming, but Pam was always there for us to answer our (many) questions, to share her wealth of information and contacts, and to help us every step of the way. We honestly feel like we won the Real Estate Agent lottery - she's not just an agent to us, she's a neighbor and a friend! We cannot recommend her enough, and know that if we ever need her again, she's there.
Buying a house is a challenge. You are required to make complicated financial decisions in a high stress environment. You need someone who will be there every step of the way to guide you through the process. Pam filled the role beautifully. We were most impressed with her responsiveness. If we had a question, and we had many, she would get back to us immediately and graciously. We were completely informed at all times throughout the process. Pam comes with our highest recommendation!
I bought and sold a home with Pam. It was a superb experience. Pam is thoughtful, honest, quick to respond to questions or concerns. Her knowledge of the housing market, the area she works in and general real estate information is excellent and when she doesn't know the answer to a question, she quickly looks to find an answer. I really appreciate her calm demeanor...particularly in a time that is very emotional for clients. On a professional basis, I have also worked with Pam on clean outs and staging. She is thorough, a great communicator and values my time as a contractor. Working with Pam Bates is a true pleasure.
Pam is absolutely the BEST! We purchased our home in Hingham in July 2020 and if it wasn't for Pam's extensive knowledge of the town and the home buying process (we were first timers!) we would have been so lost. Pam took the time to explain a lot of the steps in purchasing a home that we weren't familiar with and made it all happen during a crazy pandemic! I would highly recommend Pam to anyone looking to buy or sell in Hingham or nearby towns, you won't regret it!
Selling your HOME is an emotional experience, but when we recently sold our home in Hingham, we felt this time it was different and a great deal less stressful than past experiences. We met with a number of reputable agents before landing on Pam, right from our initial meeting we felt we were in experienced, empathetic, and thoughtful hands, Pam spent time finding out about our family and what was important to us, she came to our first meeting fully prepared to discuss the market in general and specifically how it impacted our home. Pam laid out a comprehensive marketing plan and was able to answer all our questions and address our concerns. We never felt rushed or pressured during the process, including the actual negotiation of the sale. Pam clearly knew what she was doing, which added to our sense of security. We have bought and sold a number of homes and have always felt completely stressed out especially during the negotiations, working with Pam was a totally different experience, I cant say we werent stressed at times during the negotiations, but we didnt feel pressured and knew Pam had our back.Pam not only listens to you, she also actually hears you, she is professional, experienced and really cares about her clients, she is simply awesome! Thank you! Pam - Laura and Joe
