Les was a pleasure to work with. His knowledge and expertise were excellent!

Les Priest has helped our family buy and sell some Maine properties over the years and has never let us down. He is patient and on point with his knowledge of the market. Although the way real estate has changed through the years, more hands off and challenging, Les has NOT changed! He is hands on, and makes what can be a stressful ordeal much leas complicated.

Les Priest is always there to answer questions that help you make your decisions from start to finish. His knowledge of the community he’s selling in is important to successfully promoting and selling your property, and that was important to me. Moving is one of the hardest stressors in life and Les helps the transition easier. Thank you Les Priest for fine service.

I really don't think any further improvement from his side is needed since he is already a highly qualified & experienced professional whom I know in this trade.

Les is a consummate professional and an outstanding testament to his profession. This was a difficult situation to get thru and Les's professionalism and attention to detail made getting thru this difficult time so much easier. I will recommend Les without hesitation to anyone looking to sell their home.

We just completed our 10th transaction with Les. He has been a true pleasure to work with every time. We wouldn’t use anyone else!

Les has been fully cooperative to my needs in setting up my needs for purchasing to downsize, then allowing me time to settle and clean out and prepare to sell my property all in a relatively quick transition. My thanks to Les for all of this.Comfort level with Les was important to me in making decisions throughout buying and fully hope for that to remain thru selling process of my home.Closing was especially uncomplicated in spite of current state of protecting everyone’s health and wellbeing, fast and efficient. Many thanks to Les Priest and the entire group at Masiello group for this entire experience and making it look so easy when I know it is far from it.

Excellent care and knowledge from beginning to end.Les is absolutely wonderful to work with as he keeps things both personal and professional - a rare combination!Les is simply the best broker we have ever dealt with.Very helpful in assisting the sale process.Wonderful experience!

Les was very easy to work with, he was very accommodating during the Covid crisis and was able to help us close the deal quickly. Les was mindful of the concerns customers and owners would have with the virus and had gloves available during showings. Les was able to recommend contractors for us to work with for work we need to have done on the home we purchased. He is very knowledgeable about the area and was able to help us find the right property on the right lake.

We really enjoyed meeting you and hope we can do business again.

My aunt and uncle trusted and relied on Les Priest in the sale of their properties previously, and I felt comfortable and secure with his knowledge of the property for sale and his integrity.

I have dealt with other brokers/agents before. After this transaction was completed, I consider Les a friend. I have called long after he earned his commission and he always had the time and willing to answer questions I had.

His knowledge of the area, understanding of the quirks and needs of both sides of the process was instrumentalWe have been looking in the Torsey Lake area for a few years now, and Les Priest's name and face on sign markers were everywhere. Actually, we can't remember seeing anyone else! But his response, calm and ability to listen clearly to the dreams and desires of the shopper were extremely comforting. In our particular situation he represented both the seller, and we the buyers, which we found was helpful in the overall negotiations. But it would be difficult to find a more even keeled, level headed, honest and empathetic broker than Les. It was a pleasure overall.We tend to be critical and honestly reflective in our reviews. No questions here; 10/10 throughoutIt was like dealing with your next door neighbor, friend and longtime associate when it came to working with Les. There was no "work" involved

Les was very professional throughout the entire process. Was very sure when I would call Les he had a million other things to do but never make me feel rushed and always was well informed about the property.

Les ia like a friend, he did a fabulous job and i would definitely use his services again

Les Priest is honest and willing to assist with local knowledge. We highly endorse Les!

We were strongly recommended to go with Les Priest. We are very glad that we did.We felt very comfortable with Les. He knows his business, is very honest and sincere. Our situation was a difficult one, and Les was a great resource to us, and stuck with us through the process. We would absolutely recommend him and use him again.

We recently listed and sold our colonial home that we had built in the Winthrop area with Les Priest of the Masiello Group. We conducted a search and interviews of local real estate agents resulting in our choice of Les due to his extensive professional experience and market study presentation he conducted for our home. Les had our home professionally photographed and published in the local real estate magazine and internet sites. Les and a colleague provided coverage and feedback for every buyer showing which was important to us. Les was direct on his recommendations and effective in communication of our market position and buyer assessments which was helpful in the sale. Les sold our home in a record timeframe considering the Winthrop home sales market and our home upper value position in the market. We appreciate his considerate and thoughtful working method and personality and would work him again. We highly recommend Les Priest to represent you as a experienced real estate professional. Thanks Les!

Les did a great job searching and finding us exactly what we were looking for!

I have purchased 3 homes and sold two using Les and I plan to do more. I have ALWAYS been completely satisfied with his knowledge of the area and the properties I am looking for. I trust him completely.

My wife and I just purchased our third house and Les Priest was the realtor that sold both of our previous houses. We met with Les and stated our goals for how long we wanted it on the market and he developed a strategy and suggested a fair sale price to meet our goals. He sold both house quicker than expected and the negotiations and closings were as easy as they could be. He is our GO-TO realtor.

He was amazing. Very helpful and understanding of our situation. Willing to give advice and point us in the right direction from a great bank to use to a good place to look for insurance quotes. He was easy to talk with and for us the best experiance we could of had. We are so grateful for all he did for us and will use him in the future if the need should arise. Lucas and Linsay

Les Priest is an AMAZING realtor!

He was flexible in when he could meet, quick to respond, and very easy to work with. He was very knowledgable about the area, knowledgable regarding the building structure and background of the house, and very honest about the pros and cons of the home. He was always understanding and considerate of our wants and needs. He was able to answer all of our questions and help us through the home buying process. We are so happy that one of our friends recommended using Les Priest as our realtor - and we would recommend him to anyone! Thank you Les for a wonderful experience.

I was interested in purchasing a home in Fayette Maine and Les was the realtor. I have worked with realtors before but Les stands out as the best one because of his kindness, thorough understanding of the issues related to older homes, follow through, prompt responses to my many emails, handling complex issues related to the inspection. He was a joy to work with.

Les is very professional with an easy-going, confident manner. He worked hard to make sure that the sale process went smoothly and quickly. He made suggestions to improve the property and also on the selling price. We appreciate that he helped us to determine a realistic and reasonable selling price. We wouldn't hesitate to call on Les again.

We found him honest, sincere, and forthright … We have known many agents in our years and I would consider him the best.. An A+ individual... read more on Zillow

Les was a real pro and handled our purchase of this home with expert hands. It was a real pleasure to work with someone who knew so many people in the surrounding areas, he helped well beyond the mere purchase of the property. I would highly recommend him to anyone buying in the area, no matter who is listing the property.
