    Why does language matter in a real estate transaction?

    Buying or selling a home is a sequence of consequential decisions made under time pressure, using vocabulary most people never encounter anywhere else — contingencies, escrow, title, riders, the difference between an inspection and an appraisal. Plenty of people are entirely comfortable in English and still find that specific vocabulary slower going.

    Being able to switch languages at the moment it matters — usually during negotiation, or when reading what a disclosure actually commits you to — means decisions get made on the merits rather than on whichever option was easier to follow.

    What is available in Mandarin, and what is not?

    Being specific is more useful than a blanket promise.

    • In Mandarin or English, your choice — consultations, showings, village and neighborhood orientation, offer strategy, negotiation, and explaining what each document means before you sign it
    • In English — the legal documents themselves. Massachusetts purchase and sale agreements, disclosures, and closing paperwork are executed in English, and that is not something an agent can change
    • Referrals where they are warranted — lenders, real estate attorneys, and tax advisers, including ones who also work in Mandarin, when a question is properly theirs rather than ours

    Buying from overseas or relocating to Greater Boston

    International and out-of-state buyers face a different set of problems than local ones. The listings are easy to find; what is hard is knowing which town fits, how the schools actually differ, what a commute really looks like, and how the process works when you cannot be in the room.

    We do video tours, attend showings and inspections on your behalf, and flag the steps — financing, funds transfer, identification, timing — that take longer from abroad, early enough to plan around them. The area guides are the fastest way to get oriented before you shortlist anything, and the buyer's guide walks through the process end to end.

    Everyone is welcome here

    This page exists because people search for it, and because someone who would rather discuss a contract in Mandarin should be able to find out that they can. It is not a statement about who the team works with.

    Maggie Li & Co represents first-time buyers, downsizers, developers, relocating families, and long-time Newton homeowners, of every background and in every price range. Working with a Newton real estate agent covers what that looks like in practice, and the team page introduces the people you would be working with.
