First Time Home Buyer in Western MA – Testimonial on working with Lesley Lambert, Western MA REALTOR
Months ago my client Mark responded to an email that I sent asking if he wanted to purchase a home, but thought he might not qualify for a mortgage. I put Mark in touch with Russ Poe of Top Flite Financial to work on getting his credit issues corrected in order to buy his first home.
A few months later, Mark and his wife Stephanie are now the proud owners of their first home!
Mark followed the step by step instructions laid out to repair his credit and realized his dream of home ownership. This is a system that will work for many people who would like to buy a home in Western MA, but have credit issues that they fear will prevent them from getting a mortgage.

Why should you hire Lesley Lambert, Realtor at Park Square Realty in Westfield, MA?
This is a good question to which I am going to post a series of answers…supplied by my own past customers. Let them tell you why they worked with me and why it worked FOR them.
Let’s start with Christopher Stolar. Chris is an entrepreneur at J.Stolar Insurance in Palmer, MA. Last year he was researching buying his first home on Google and he found my blog. We met over coffee for an interview and began our search. We found his home in Palmer, MA and he was a home owner a few months later. This is Chistopher’s comment card:
“Lesley did an excellent job explaining this process and making sure I felt comfortable.”
I am so glad you feel that way!
Thank you to Christopher for his trust, business and kind words. I hope he has many happy years in his new home!

A day in the life of a REALTOR
You know what? Being a REALTOR isn’t easy and it demands a lot of time and attention that most people might not think about. A lot of people that I chat with have an impression that real estate isn’t a “real job” because we don’t work traditional hours.
I happen to know first hand that a full time real estate agent works a lot more hours than most people realize. In addition to going on showing and listing appointments we have a lot of running around, phone calls and computer time that can absorb a day. I thought I might use my day today as an example of what a full time, hard-working real estate agent goes through.
8:30 am – coffee while reading emails and real estate news
9:00 am – gather up my kids (it is school vacation) and head to the office. Thankful that Park Square Realty in Westfield is family friendly!
11 am – drop kids at play date and head out to deliver purchase and sale agreements to listing in Chicopee for signature
1 pm – present marketing and pricing plan to potential listing client in Westfield, MA
3 pm – back to Park Square Realty’s office to check messages, emails and prepare for evening showings
4 pm – pick up my kids and work from home for an hour. Work on website marketing for listings and start editing video for a virtual tour.
5:30 pm – head back to Chicopee to show three properties to some first time home buyers
8 pm – home to research recent comparable sales because buyer is considering making an offer, write this blog post, write a blog post for my column at Masslive and another for Agent Genius Magazine.
10:30 pm – finish emails and blog posts – ran out of steam and will have to finish that virtual tour tomorrow.
During the course of the day I am answering calls and emails on the go…thank goodness for smart phones!
All of this costs my household something though, and I know other agents pay the same toll….
The laundry is piled up, the dishes need doing, dinner is late and sometimes not so healthy and don’t even get me started on the garden!
Ah well, it is all worth it when a buyer signs for a house that they love and a family selling their home is able to make their next move!
