Buying and selling a house is stressful. Darlene made the process smooth and painless for us! She is honest, and professional, and gives realistic advice. I always got a response to questions quickly and she got us in to see every house we wanted to see, even on short notice. She is wonderful, I can't say enough good things about her!

Not only is Darlene an amazing real estate agent, but she is also one of the nicest people! We purchased our home with Darlene and we could not have asked for more. She is always available to help and answer questions. Being first-time home buyers, the process can be overwhelming but Darlene was always there to put us at ease!

Darlene was referred to me by a friend and I was so thankful for the referral. She was very responsive, always supportive and helpful, and a great leader throughout the process. Darlene is very straight forward but she is not pushy. She lets you know what needs to be done and always offers help to complete any tasks on the list. Her assistant, Nicole, was wonderful, too! They are a great team who make the process seamless. My favorite part about working with Darlene is her personality. She is super easygoing and very pleasant to be around. She is knowledgeable and if there is something she is unsure of, she finds out and lets you know. I highly recommend her for any buying, renting, or selling needs!

Darlene is the best! Moving to Maryland to be with my new grandson was my dream. But I had no idea of everything that would need to be done to make that happen. Darlene made it happen seamlessly. She kept things simple, and kept me informed every step along the way. My house sold in two days without an open house! It made my life so much easier. Darlene (and her staff) were always available to answer any questions and stay on top every step of the way from home inspections, fire alarm inspections, oil readings, and legal questions. Her referrals were the best lawyers, movers, fire inspections, junk removal, and everything in between. Although my plan was to purchase a new home out of state, Darlene had a hand in that as well. I needed to get copies quickly of my closing documents, which she facilitated, making it possible for me to make an offer the same day on a home in Maryland. I couldn’t have done it without Darlene!

Working with Darlene Umina was a great experience. We enlisted her help in selling our first house and also buying our current home in the spring/summer of 2015. From pricing our home to staging ideas to fielding offers, she added a lot of value throughout the process of selling our house. And when we were searching for our new home she was very knowledgeable about market trends, neighborhoods, direction on estimates for repair costs, and really any other question I had. Most importantly she was always available to catch up over the phone and walk me through whatever issues I wanted to discuss. We had numerous conversations and I always felt like she was completely engaged in our common goals. She was basically our best friend for the 3.5 months between our first discussion and closing on our new home. Overall, Darlene was very pleasant to work with and I wouldn’t hesitate for a second to recommend her on both the buying and selling side!

Darlene was amazing! She is very knowledgeable regarding the whole real estate process and was available to answer questions any time/day/even holiday. She eased my fears of buying and selling at the same time and made it all happen. Still have to pinch ourselves that we are in the home of our dreams!

My fiancé and I were referred to Darlene Umina by a close friend at work in December of 2016. Right from the start, We knew she was going to be the perfect fit. We met at Starbucks on a Sunday morning prior to an open house for a home we were interested in. Darlene made sure to go over all the important topics of buying a home as we were first-time buyers! She gladly escorted us to this first home on the north shore. Making it a point to introduce ourselves to the seller’s realtor as we really liked the home. Instantly we knew we wanted to put in an offer. Darlene was so great that she was willing to pull over in her car the second we knew we wanted to put in an offer and write it all upright on the side of the road. With her quick speed and resilience, she helped us secure our first home on the first offer we had made with her! Even at a price way lower than what we expected with this booming market. Throughout the entire process, she could not be anything short of outstanding. Always so attentive and answering silly questions first-time homebuyers may have. And the group of people she recommends i.e. mortgage company and real estate lawyer are nothing short of phenomenal themselves. LaMacchia reality and their team could not have made this a more pleasurable experience and we have Darlene to thank for that. If you want someone who will fight for you with class and a lovely attitude overall then Darlene is your woman! Even though we were glad we got the first home we put an offer on, we were sad we did not get to work with this lovely woman any longer. She truly has such a strong passion for what she does and it shines through in her work! Thanks again, Darlene! We are forever appreciative.

We used Darlene when selling our first home and also when purchasing our forever home a few months ago. Darlene is extremely professional, knowledgeable, friendly, and genuinely cares about her clients. Darlene went above and beyond time and time again for us and I would not hesitate to use her again and highly recommend her to friends and family for their home-buying and selling needs.

Darlene is extremely friendly, kind, and professional. She is very knowledgeable and knows exactly what she is doing. My husband and I were buying our first home and knew nothing about the process. Darlene made it easy for us. She was always very patient and made sure we understood everything along the way. We will definitely be using her again if/when we buy another home.

Darlene is amazing. We contacted her based on glowing reviews from others on social media in our local town. She lived up to all the hype and then some. So knowledgeable responsive and supportive, all great realtor qualities in my book. If you have heard the hype and are wondering if it’s all true, it is. Give her a call and you won’t regret it.
