Honest advice, even when it's not what you expected to hear. Your interests always come first.
Realtor® in Cambridge, Somerville & Middlesex County
I'm Bilien. I help young couples, growing families, investors, and newcomers buy, sell, and rent across Greater Boston, with honest advice and a steady hand from first tour to final keys.
About
I was born in Eritrea and have called Greater Boston home for more than 22 years. I know these neighborhoods, and I know what it means to build a life in a new place, because I've lived it.
For six years I've helped buyers, sellers, renters, landlords, investors, and developers across Cambridge, Somerville, and greater Middlesex County. I love the exciting moments, like the accepted offer and the first walk-through, but I'm at my best when things get hard: a tough negotiation, a deal that hits a wall, or a difficult tenant situation. That's when you need someone steady in your corner.
Whether we talk in English or Tigrinya, you'll always get honest advice, quick answers, and a calm plan.
