If you ask me why I love real estate, it really comes down to people, their stories, their goals, and helping them find a place that truly feels like home.
Every client I work with has a different reason for moving. Sometimes it’s a growing family, sometimes a new job, sometimes an investment opportunity, and other times it’s simply the feeling that it’s time for something new. No two situations are the same, and that’s what keeps this work interesting, challenging, and incredibly rewarding for me.
I was born and raised in Ashland and now live in Upton, and I proudly serve MetroWest, Worcester County, and Greater Boston. I’m constantly out and about touring homes of all kinds, from turnkey ready to properties that need a little vision and creativity. Not every house is perfect, and that’s okay. Often, the right home just needs the right perspective.
Let’s be honest, moving can feel overwhelming. There are a lot of decisions, emotions, and unknowns along the way. My role is to make the process feel more manageable by listening closely, explaining things clearly, and staying steady when things get busy. I like to keep things positive and approachable, and a little humor always helps.
Before real estate, I spent years in banking, wealth management, and mortgage lending. That background allows me to guide clients through both the financial and practical sides of buying and selling, so they feel informed, confident, and prepared, not rushed or pressured.
I work with first-time buyers, upsize (or right size) buyers, downsizers, investors, and landlords, and I take the time to really understand what matters most to each client. When a buyer walks into a home and you can see that “this is it” look on their face, that’s what I’m working toward.
Through my affiliation with Lamacchia Realty, I’m also connected to Leading Real Estate Companies of the World®, a global network of top-performing, independently owned brokerages. Whether you’re relocating out of Massachusetts, moving here from another state, or know someone who needs a trusted agent elsewhere, I can personally connect you with a vetted professional who will provide the same level of care and service. Real estate may be local, but relationships and opportunities are global.
When I’m not working with clients, you’ll usually find me staying active, spending time with family, supporting local businesses, or talking about all things real estate, finance, and sports. Community means a lot to me, and I enjoy helping people put down roots or plan their next chapter here.
To make the process easier from the start, I offer a Home Readiness Review, a no pressure conversation designed to help you understand where you stand, what options you have, and what steps (if any) make sense next. Whether you’re ready to move now or just thinking ahead, it’s simply a way to get clarity and a game plan before the market makes the decisions for you.
For me, real estate isn’t just about buying or selling a house, it’s about helping people move forward with confidence and feeling supported every step of the way. If you’re considering moving here or anywhere, I’d be happy to connect and help you take the next step when the timing feels right.

West Boylston, MA “Steven recently helped us find our perfect home. He was incredibly dedicated and professional throughout the entire process, ensuring it was as easy and stress-free as possible. From our very first meeting, he took the time to listen to our needs and desires for both our home and the community. His attentive approach made a significant difference, and we genuinely felt understood and supported throughout our home search. I am more than happy to recommend Steven to anyone in my circle looking to buy a new home. I will definitely reach out to him again when we’re ready for our next move.”
Tyler & Emily D.
Worcester, MA “I really can’t think of enough great things to say about our first-time home buying experience with Steve. My wife and I were thrown into the housing market a lot earlier than we expected, with time very much of the essence, and Steve was right there with us to navigate us through the bedlam. His friendliness, compassion and understanding for our situation along with our wants/needs in finding a house—Steve practically became family during the Summer of ’24, and we wouldn’t have found this amazing home without him. Steve is fully committed to his work, his background in finances is such a helpful guide in this market, and his determination to find you your perfect home is absolutely why you should work with him!”
Greg & Stephanie S.
Ashland, MA “We had a great experience working with Steve during our home search. He took the time to understand what we were looking for and helped us find a home that really matched both our wants and needs. Throughout the process, he was honest, responsive, and clearly had our best interests in mind. It felt like he approached our home search with the same level of care and attention he would if he were buying a place himself. He was also helpful in pointing out things we might not have noticed and never pressured us into making a decision. We’re really happy with where we ended up and would definitely recommend working with him.”
Brian & Judy S.
Milford, MA "Steve was an excellent agent that we worked with in buying our new home. We were relocating from New York to be closer to our children and he helped us immensely with the process. Steve was knowledgeable about the area and really listened to us and what we wanted in a house. His demeanor was great, he asked us questions to help us get to where we needed to be without telling us what to do. We hadn’t purchased a home in 32 years so obviously the process had changed, but Steve walked us through everything and made it seamless. He visited homes with us and even afterwards to go through it thoroughly with an objective eye. He always pointed out things in thoughtful manner to make us aware so we could think about it more objectively. We were new to the area and he helped us with our financial, legal, and home resources to meet all of our needs. This was a major decision for us and Steve helped make this process less stressful even during trying times and in an extremely active market. He worked well with all the selling agents and always maintained open communications as we evaluated each property. I would highly recommend Steve as your agent as you embark on your home journey whether you are buying or selling. I can’t thank him enough for helping us find our new home that we are so happy with!"
