“Jackie Hawkinson is amazing! She was always professional, knowledgable, patient, and thoughtful. Her availability and quick responses were incredible. She found the property we bought and talked us through each step of the process. She asked questions that we had not have thought of and provided us with fantastic recommndations for people to work with after we became owners. I cannot imagine how anyone could do a better job. She made us feel as if our best friend was supporting us through the entire process.”

“Jackie was not just an effective buyer agent, she was also a trusted friend who really looked out for me. She was quite discriminating in her valuation of homes and never pushed me into anything that did not meet her standard. So when we came across my eventual new home, her seal of approval gave me confidence that this was it.

The whole process on purchase of my new home went very smoothly, from initial offer to final close, with no hiccups. Timeline was short (~45 days, over Christmas/New Year holidays) but Jackie helped greatly along the way to make sure that everything stayed on track.

I would not have accomplished this process of downsizing if it was not for Jackie's steady hand and experience. She helped me find my next dream home with great understanding of my needs and vision, and she worked hard to sell my old home with perseverance. In the end, both ends worked out beautifully and seamlessly, and I have Jackie to thank for helping me move on to the next chapter of my life.”

“Jackie had a very good understanding of the current market conditions, proper pricing strategy, and did a terrific job on the staging and open houses and helped very much with other move related issues such as selling our furnishings. Very good job and worked very well with us as a team player.

The listing and marketing materials done by Barrett-Sotheby were excellent and very much helped in the sales process. Very impressive.”

“Jackie Hawkinson is extremely knowledgeable about the town we live in, and made wonderful recommendations to prepare our home before putting it on the market. This also included help with staging it, and pricing it appropriately for this market. These are some of the main things about Jackie Hawkinson that stands out for me and why I would recommend her as a top notch real estate broker.

Jackie Hawkinson was very effective in planning the sales campaign and getting our home ready to be on the market. She worked closely with the professional Stager to ensure our home presented as good as possible.

Jackie Hawkinson is very professional and knowledgeable about the market in Lexington. She was always available when needed and kept in continual communications with us.”

“Jackie Hawkinson frequently partners with our listing broker, Mary-Lou McDonough. They worked together to transform our home from lovely to remarkable. I never worked with brokers who worked so hard on a listing.

My experience has been that the listing broker gathers information, inputs it into a data base, has a broker's open house, and an open house, the sale happens after a month or so, and the broker gets their commission. This was not the case with Jackie and Mary-Lou. They worked very, very hard to make the property as wonderful as possible in order to get the best value possible.”

“Marketing was different than usual because of the corona virus (no hard copies of any materials), but Jackie did a great job, both informing us of what was currently available, and lining up appointments to show the house, keeping strict adherence to Covid restrictions (masks, gloves, showings limited to 2 people plus their broker by appointment only, no kids, etc.)

Jackie brought in Mary Lou McDonough for consultation at one point, and she was equally excellent - very impressed!

One of the above answers how long it took to sell our house, and the smallest amount of time was 2 weeks or less. Our house sold at the 2nd open house on Sunday, May 10 (Mothers Day - I considered cancelling the OH because of the "holiday"), and we had 6 competitive offers on "offer day," Tuesday May 12! That was 4 days after it was listed!”

“Can't say enough good about her.

Photographer was excellent, friendly, and interesting to know.

Took us through a difficult phase of our life - major downsizing, selling, and moving. Her support was key to making this possible at all, and to keeping it as positive as possible. Jackie is a consummate professional and was a calm, wise and helpful presence in every phase of a difficult process. And yes, she got us a great result!”

“Jackie assisted my daughter and me and displayed super good patience with a seller who was a bit difficult. Thanks, Jackie!”

“Many years ago, my husband and I reached out to Jackie to ask her advice on the value that finishing our basement might add to our current home. She prepared a full assessment of our property and gave us sound advice. She did not charge for this service, and we felt immensely grateful for it. MANY years later, we reached out to her to help us find a new home.

Jackie is such a personable, gentle and thoughtful individual. At no point did we feel we were frustrating her (our search took two years!). She seemed to take each "no, not this one" dismissal in stride and still kept her eye out for us, and encouraged us toward the end when it truly felt we were not going to ever find the right house.

We are certain we would not have had our bid accepted without the counsel of our agent.”
