From the first time we met I knew she was the right realtor for selling my house as well as buying our new house.

Real Estate Agency in Haverhill
Bentley's Real Estate is the real estate agency we built for Haverhill, MA homeowners and buyers who want market-leading representation close to home. We are a locally founded, woman- and veteran-owned firm, part of The RE/MAX Collection, and we lead the brokerage rankings in neighboring Greater Newburyport. We carry that same discipline into Haverhill and the Merrimack Valley and North Shore of Essex County, Massachusetts. Come to us when you want a dedicated agent with a full real estate agency behind them. A national call center with a local logo is the wrong fit when your largest asset is on the line.
Bentley's Real Estate
The RE/MAX Collection
Before we talk fee or price, we will walk you through recent sold data on your street, because sold comps tell the truth and most asking prices do not.
What Makes a Strong Real Estate Agency
What separates one real estate agency from the next is depth of bench and data, plus a dedicated agent who answers the phone. That is how we work.
| What drives the result | What it means for your Haverhill home |
|---|---|
| A deep bench of 60-plus agents | We match you to the right realtor for a first home, move-up, downsize, or luxury sale |
| Owner-level standard | Our leadership sets how every agent prices, markets, and negotiates |
| Micro-market pricing | We study the data around your address so your new listing attracts the right buyer |
Our real estate agency was founded by Robert Bentley (Broker/Owner) and Alissa Christie (Owner/EVP). Robert is the number 1 individual agent in Greater Newburyport and the number 1 RE/MAX agent in Massachusetts, and that bar shapes the service every client receives.
Fees, Commission, and Real Value
Clients ask how that standard squares with the cost of hiring us. The real cost of selling is a soft sale price, not the commission rate. A discount or flat-fee realty model may advertise a low rate, but a cut-rate commission often buys cut-rate marketing and weaker negotiation, which shows up in the final number. We would rather earn our fee by growing your net proceeds.
| Service model | Typical fee structure | What you usually get |
|---|---|---|
| Discount / flat-fee realty | Low upfront fee, 1 to 2 named services | Limited photography, thin negotiation, little support |
| Solo realtor | Standard commission, 1 point of contact | Capacity limits when 2 or 3 deals stack up |
| Bentley's full-service real estate agency | Competitive commission, full firm behind you | Pricing, marketing, and negotiation built to win the deal |
For sellers, we watch net proceeds, not the headline rate. For buyers, that market fluency helps us find the right property and write offers that get accepted without overpaying.
Who This Fits and Where We Work
This real estate agency suits Haverhill-area homeowners who want their sale handled by the firm already leading a neighboring market, plus buyers who want an advocate with real negotiating weight. First-time buyers, families trading up, owners downsizing, and sellers of luxury property all have a home with us.
The upside for you
- A dedicated agent backed by a full real estate agency, so nothing stalls
- Micro-market pricing instead of guesswork
- RE/MAX Collection marketing reach when a new listing calls for it
Honest trade-offs
- Our offices sit in Newburyport, a short drive and a phone call from Haverhill
- We lead a neighboring market, and that depth is the point, not a drawback
Haverhill runs from compact 1,000 sqft starter homes near the commuter rail to larger 2,500 sqft homes on an acre. Tell us your commute and 5-year plan up front. It changes which neighborhoods we steer you toward.
Proof You Can Check
A recommendation carries more weight when the record behind it is public, and ours is. We are the number 1 brokerage in Greater Newburyport, part of The RE/MAX Collection, and recognized in The Wall Street Journal's RealTrends "The Thousand," a national ranking of top-performing agents and teams. We bring that track record to your Haverhill transaction.
