  • Negotiation skills: 5 Stars

My wife and I were lucky enough to have the services of David Lott and Vineyard Open House when we decided to sell half of our property on Martha’s Vineyard. The path to the sale was complicated, and without David’s support and wise advice, I’m not sure we would have reached a satisfactory conclusion. But at every juncture, every obstacle that loomed at us, David was both available and reassuring, demonstrating the wisdom that can only come from experience.

We ended up in an excellent place. We owe David a huge thank you for all his help. We recommend David Lott and Vineyard Open House without hesitation and most enthusiastically to any and all who are looking for a realtor. He will do you proud. - RG & LG

David Lott was an absolute pleasure to work with. He brought a wealth of knowledge both about the island and the real estate market. David was always professional and available, and listened to what I wanted and needed from my island home.

Advocating on my behalf, David walked me through each stage of the purchase process and connected me to a lawyer and an architect. Furthermore, David is friendly, personable, discreet, and has a great sense of humor! I recommend David Lott as a broker without reservation.–NK

My words or statements will be not enough to thank David for his support hunting the best fitting place for our multicultural family. However, I will try my best. David has been more than patient with both my husband and me since we were not easy buyers due to our Italian and Turkish backgrounds. Different point of views, uncommon shared ideas…We were not sure what kind of house we were looking for years (over 5 years).

Plus, each house seemed not to be welcoming us. There was always something missing. However, David was listening to us like a Tibetian Monk trying to understand more about our dream shelter…David never changed, still calm and peaceful he was, I started to have more grey hair as years were passing by until we were introduced the one in Daggett Ave. Now we have David as a dear friend. Thank you for your tolerance and mental support over the years of hunting for the most suitable one.–FdCh

We could not have been happier working with David these last few months finding our new home. David is an absolute joy to work with and went above and beyond throughout the entire process. Professional, friendly and super helpful no matter how many homes we saw or questions we threw his way. If we could rate David more than 5 stars we would. We highly recommend working with David.–M+JC

David came highly recommended and was great. From day 1, he was very helpful in guiding us through the buying process, very knowledgeable about the contractors on the island and was always solutions-oriented when there were issues along the way. He was very responsive to our calls and emails. I would highly recommend working with David!–ALS

(Broker) David (Lott’s) knowledge of the island was invaluable, he adapted as our property type interest evolved during our search. David’s closing attorney recommendation was very valuable in understanding the property and completing a smooth close with Attorney Dubin.–KS

Working with David was a pleasure, and in addition to our agent, we’re pleased to call him a friend now. With a real estate search that began a couple years (and 9 houses) ago, David was persistent and coached us along the way…He is always quick to respond, ready to answer a question, suggest a strategy or provide insight into island life for out-of-towners like us.

Having a deep local perspective makes a world of difference in being an informed buyer, and it ultimately paid off with a great house for our family. We highly recommend David and his team for your Martha’s Vineyard real estate needs.–MF

David was excellent from start to finish. He was very responsive to questions and was proactive in researching other options and comparative properties to ensure our full market awareness.

I’m so pleased to be writing a review for David Lott! We never would have found our dream home without him. From day one his enthusiasm, warmth, patience and knowledge were evident. And, most of all, these traits never waned as we saw some 66 homes! David’s expertise should also be noted. For an individual relatively new to the trade back then, he was a true professional.

Finally, the care we received every time we looked at homes was superior. The process of buying a home can be grueling at best– David always took our well-being into consideration and made our long house-hunting days a pleasure. Now that we have bought our home, we intend to use David as our rental agent. Clearly, we are happy to continue working with him now and in the future.–D+LC
