About

Why Work With Maggie Li

With a master's in Marketing Analytics and an MBA behind me, I bring a data-driven, consultative edge to one of the country's most competitive markets — and as a Platinum agent with more than $200 million in sales, I've earned the negotiating instincts to protect what matters most to you. Whether you're a first-time buyer navigating your very first offer, a seller preparing a luxury home for market, or a family stepping into a $2M+ new construction townhome, I deliver a concierge-level experience shaped entirely around your goals. I also serve Newton and Greater Boston's Mandarin-speaking community, so nothing gets lost in translation — just clear guidance from first search to final signature.

Why work with us

Local Insight That Moves the Needle

Newton is thirteen distinct villages, and Greater Boston is a patchwork of micro-markets — pricing a Newtonville townhome is nothing like pricing a Chestnut Hill single-family or a Cambridge condo. I combine deep neighborhood knowledge with real analytics to price accurately, spot value others miss, and time the market in your favor. From new construction to established estates, I give you the data and the honest read you need to make a confident decision.

Luxury & New Construction

A top producer in Newton's luxury and new-build townhome market, from $2M+ estates to modern villages.

First-Time Buyer Guidance

I walk first-time buyers through every step — financing, showings, offers, and closing — with patience.

Bilingual Service

I serve clients fluently in English and Mandarin, ensuring clear communication for every family.

Data-Driven Negotiation

Armed with an MBA and Marketing Analytics degree, I negotiate hard and price with real precision.

From First Conversation to Closing

The difference

From First Conversation to Closing

My process starts by listening — truly understanding your goals, your timeline, and your must-haves. From there, I build a clear, step-by-step plan tailored to you: strategic pricing or a targeted search, sharp negotiation, and hands-on management of every inspection, contingency, and deadline. I pride myself on transparency, meticulous attention to detail, and following up relentlessly — communicating the same day so you're never left guessing. Whether you're buying your first home or selling a luxury property, I guide you personally through every step so the finish line feels effortless.
