Price is always your choice. Before you choose, I walk you through three facts, in this order. First, what sellers near you accepted lately, for how much, and why they chose that buyer. Second, every home for sale in your price range, so we know how yours can stand out. Third, the accurate similar sales from the last 30 days.
Why don't last spring's sales tell you your price today?
Because buyers' payments change when mortgage rates move. A sale from six months ago only helps you if it's adjusted for what your buyer can pay now.
That's why this page leans on October sales and the homes for sale on November 3, 2026. Ask for the newest sales on your own street in Danvers MA before you choose your price.

Home, for me, is here
This is home for me. I grew up north of Boston. I raised my two daughters here as a single mom while I built my business. When they were little, they hosted open houses with me.
We lived at Mill Pond in North Andover MA. I hiked Weir Hill with my dogs. I launched my kayak on the pond. A lot of my mornings started at Good Day Cafe.
So when you ask me about a town, you get more than numbers. Ask me about a school, a street or your commute, and you get someone who has lived it. If you're making a move here, you won't make it alone.
Lisa is an expert negotiator and we were able to get everything that we wanted for our offer.
