I recently completed a 1031 exchange for an investment property, and I couldn't have done it without Lien! Her expertise in real estate investment and 1031 was invaluable. Lien was very responsive and patient throughout the entire process, analyzing pros/cons for me. Lien was proactive in finding potential replacement properties that met my investment criteria and skillfully negotiated a great deal on my behalf. Her thoughts on property improvements/renovations are very inspiring, and I really appreciate the discussions we had. I highly recommend Lien to anyone looking for a knowledgeable and dedicated realtor.

We had an absolutely amazing experience working with Lien. She is an amazingly conscientious, knowledgeable, and kind person. We went through a series of homes with her and ultimately found the one. In fact, our final home was first seen by her and she knew we would like it. She IS the person to work with, and we highly, highly recommend her as an agent.
We started with her as our agent, and are now fortunate to be able to call her our friend.

Lien helped my wife and I find a two family property in the Boston area to house hack. The market can be tricky out here because of the average age of homes and the neighborhood by neighborhood variation. I had a decent amount of area knowledge and I have a construction background but having Lien with us during showings was a huge help. I felt much more comfortable making offers when I could rely on her experience and knowledge of the different towns/neighborhoods around Boston.
I definitely recommend giving her a call if you are in the market. Lien will help get you on the right path and take time to work through any properties you are interested in.

Hello,
I find myself fortunate to find Lien Vuong when I joined Bigger Pockets. I reached out to her at first because she got really high reviews here. I also interviewed a couple of other real estate agents but I ended up going with Lien because from our initial conversation, I feel that she is a personality match for me when it comes to finding properties. She is knowledgeable, reliable, well-organized and most importantly, very honest. She pointed out to me what is good and what is not good about the properties we saw and did not rush me into anything, which I appreciate. I think if you are first time investor like me you will find it even more beneficial to have her as your real estate agent. As you know, for first time investors, we might have a lot of concerns or questions so we need to go with the right agent who can help us find the right property. She answered all of my questions promptly and guided me well throughout the whole process. I will definitely come back for her help for future investments. She is very professional and is a great negotiator. Even after we purchased the property, she still answers our questions timely and proves to be very helpful. Lien and her whole team are very professional and responsive. I would highly recommend Lien and believe she will go far in her career in real estate.

I decided earlier this year that I wanted to purchase an investment property and use it as a house hack. I am new to the area and wanted to find a real estate agent that I could trust, was familiar with RE investing, and would be someone I could continue to work with on multiple deals. I found Lien on Bigger Pockets and after reviewing her profile, reviews, and interactions on BP, I decided to reach out. She was immediately responsive and was the first realtor I met with in MA, but I was quickly impressed and I knew I didn't need to continue searching for a real estate agent. I've worked with other realtors in the past and was a little wary; however, Lien is extremely knowledgeable, organized, and provided endless resources, connections, and insight. I never had to worry that things would get done in Lien's hands. She is very capable and I look forward to working with her again in the future. Her and her team were great and go above and beyond expectations!

To fellow Boston area REIs,
I would highly recommend working with Lien.
We bought a property with Lien during the 2020 pandemic. Lien was so professional, knowledgeable, and easy to work with during the whole 5 month process.
Lien was very knowledgeable about the Boston metro area. She gave us facts (Comps) and advices about the towns that we were looking, and practical tips for the specific local market. She serves as half as our agent and half as our mentor in the whole processes.
Lien was very good at negotiation and dealing with difficult sellers/agents. There's a couple times we were facing unresponsive and unreasonable seller agents. Lien was able to find ways to communicate with the other sides and get our offers through.
Lien was very patient and persistent. We faced a few setbacks during our purchase (5 months). Lien stood by our side and helped us go through those setbacks.
Working with Lien was the milestone of our REI journey.

I worked with Lien to make my first home purchase, buying a two-family investment property. She was wonderful to work with throughout the entire buying process and continues to be helpful several months later. She took the time to break down and explain the process, which simplified the experience and reduced the stress for me as a first-time home buyer. She has experience and knowledge of RE investing and the local markets that are so valuable to someone looking to make a purchase.

What is most impressive about Lien is her rare ability to perfectly understand her markets AND her clients from your very first conversation with her.
As a new investor, I reached out and Lien was extremely willing to take time out of her day to help. The Boston market can be intricate and confusing, but with only brief context about me and what I was looking for, she knew exactly the type of buyer I was - even better than I knew. She then went into detail about not only what markets were a right fit for me, but also those to avoid. She makes the whole process easy, and her network will be very quick to speak highly of her as well.
From her active presence on BP, it is easy to tell that Lien knows what she is talking about. However, go a step further, reach out to her, and I am confident you will truly be impressed!

I'm really happy to recommend Lien Vuong as a real estate agent for any individual or family searching for a new home to build a family and/or new memories. Lien and I closed about 5 transactions within the last 15 months and she is one of the best agents I’ve ever worked with.
Lien is great with contracts negotiations, she managed to sell one of my flips for an excellent price, especially in the current market situation. She understands the market in the Greater Boston area and nothing escapes her attention when it comes to properties.
Whether is as a buyer’s agent or seller’s agent I find her to be a go getter. She always returned all phone calls, texts and emails promptly. She always carve out time in her schedule to go see properties with me, almost as if I was her only customer. She is also very personable with an engaging honest personality.

Lien helped me on the purchase side of my 1031 exchange. We first explored other markets surrounding my area, but in the end my wife and I decided that we wanted to invest in our immediate neighborhood (Brighton, MA). Our preference was a 3-family house in a location that has no 3-family inventory. Instead of waiting for something to possibly come up, Lien was pro-active and found us a number of off-market options. In the end, we were able to purchase a fully rented 3-family, right in the center of town.
Lien has also been a great resource in helping us legitimize how we operate our real estate business. There are many legalities that I never thought about in my previous property, and Lien has both referred us to the correct professionals, as well as educated us herself on what needs to be done to protect our investment and ourselves. Lien is an expert in all aspects of real estate investing, and we look forward to working with her in the future!

I had the pleasure of working w/ Lien this Summer (2019) for my first jump into real estate. Walking in w/ zero knowledge other than knowing I wanted a 3-4 family around Boston, Lien was able to walk me through the entire process step by step. From the beginning Lien made my fiancee and I feel comfortable and confident w/ the plan we put in place and ended up with a great deal in a very competitive market. As David Greene says, there's no shortage of real estate agents out there, but there is a a shortage on GREAT agents. With the constant value Lien brought throughout and after the purchase (helping w/ existing tenants, connecting me w/ local professionals, etc.), she certainly falls into the latter of the two categories. I cannot recommend Lien enough whether you are an experienced investor or this is your first purchase.

Your search ends here. Hire Lien.
As a first time home buyer, becoming a Bigger Pockets member was a no brainer. By leveraging the calculators, forums, and podcasts, I was equipped with the knowledge to get started on closing my first deal. It wasn't until I experienced a generic corporate-like real estate agent that I knew I needed to work with someone who shared my investing interest at heart.
I hired Lien because she immediately knew what good and bad investments looked like. Not only is she a real-estate agent, but she is a investor herself. Lien walked me through properties pointing out what minor or major things I could do to increase the ARV. As a newbie to the real-estate world, I had numerous questions, and Lien was there to answer all of them.
I closed on my first property within 2 months of working with Lien and I couldn't be happier.
Knowledgeable, professional and an excellent communicator. She will not blindly nod and agree with you, but challenge you to think with an investor's mindset when looking at a property.
If you want to close on a deal, Lien is your pick.

I will echo the excellent reviews. Found Lien through other recommendations on Bigger Pockets. Lien is an excellent real estate investor who helped me acquire a 2-family investment property in the greater Boston area. She has an extensive range of geographic knowledge and market insights in the area. I had specifics of what properties we were looking for in a few different towns and she proactively sent listings. During walkthroughs, she was helpful in providing thoughts on what was a reasonable price point, estimated cap-ex, value-adds, and not-worth-its. At the time of close, she also went out of her way to coordinate with the seller agent an adjustment in agent fees (both buyer and seller) to my benefit because of a not-quite-right situation (ie. She is very fair. This was a unique situation so probably would not pertain to every purchase). She is very well connected for every step of the purchase/rehab process and has tips for each part. Finally, Lien is professional and works hard, giving you time and sweat effort. Lee, her team-member, also was great and equally responsive. I will definitely be reaching out to her again.

While this is my first property, I wasn’t sure what to expect...but I always felt rushed when speaking to her and as she she was trying to talk down to me. I sent her several properties in which she responded late to - two days after, one property was already under contract.
Her assistant set up 3 showings, but in fact - I found out 2 were already under contract. I don’t have $3 mil budget, so it felt like she wasn’t interested to begin with.
It felt like she was doing me the favor and I should be happy to work with her. In fact, when I followed up on scheduling showings from our previous conversation, she mentioned forgetting but that I could go to the open house by myself....when I asked for single showings.

I am grateful to have had Lien as an agent because she approached this process with care, strategy, and a team that executed on every single process well. I highly recommend you to work with Lien as I will continue my journey towards investment properties with her.

I came into this knowing absolutely nothing, except that I wanted to buy my first Rental Property. Lien pretty much held my hand and walked me through the entire process, making in alot easier to understand and less overwhelming. She was able to help me determine what I should I actually be buying for my investment goals. I can't even imagine now what this process would have looked like with any other Realtor as Lien goes above and beyond and working with her far surpassed my expectations. Lien is a straight hustler, shes lives and breathes in the world of real estate always looking for deals for her clients and networking.(I'm convinced she doesn't even sleep) This is the kind of Agent any Bigger pockets member would be happy to work with. When working with Lien expect to get responses insanely fast as her communication is on point. Also if you are someone like me that doesn't have any contacts, Lien is the literal PLUG. She hooked me up with a Lender, Real Estate Attorney, Property Manager, Home inspector and all her recommendations were great. If you are in the Greater Boston Area , you would be a fool to not work with Lien, Facts.

I've worked with several agents over the years to buy and sell properties but working with Lien and her team was by far the best experience I've ever had. She is extremely knowledgable about the local market and inventory and is one of the hardest working agents I know. She would give me her honest feedback about a property, which I really appreciated and once we found the right one, I strongly believe her negotiating abilities allowed me to beat out all the other offers and get the property in contract. I will definitely be working with her again!!

Lien was my realtor in my recent search for my first home/investment property. I appreciated that she took the time to understand what I was looking for, proactively scheduled showings for me, called out red flags in properties while we viewed them and consistently served as a thought partner vs. someone who was just trying to make a deal happen.
Ultimately this led to me getting my first property $20k under asking, which is an anomaly given the sellers market we're in.

Hey BP,
Whether you're a first time RE investor or a seasoned investor, Lien Vuong is who you want on your team!
Lien kicked off working with us by walking us through the entire property buying process and even connecting us with a great lender! She hooked us up with an investment calculator that I've used to evaluate every one of our potential deals.
The first property we wanted to place an offer on we had checked out without Lien. She went to the house herself the next day and sent us back a defect list that would put most home inspectors to shame!
Lien is incredibly knowledgeable on the entire Boston metro area. Our search criteria was anywhere from Everett up to North Andover along I93 and we were very impressed at the understanding she had of each of the neighborhoods. Lien met us and walked with us through every property we wanted to check out, even in our very large search area!
She was with us every step of the way and was very quick to respond to our questions. Lien has a high sense of urgency and will put in the work to get your offer put in ASAP. On one occasion she got us into a private showing and got our offer in when the house was only on the market for 24 hours! On another she sent our offer out at 10pm on a Saturday to make sure our offer was the first on the table for a highly motivated seller.
Fellow realtors beware- Lien has a sharp eye and a nose for bullsh*t.
Lien is someone you want on your team! It feels like touring houses with your best friend-she will give her honest opinion on a property and keep you from making mistakes! I truly feel that she was invested in our success and she always took the time to walk us through the possibilities and pros/cons with each property we we interested in.
Lien helped us buy our first investment property- a two family in North Andover, MA. She helped us get an offer accepted that was $10k under a competing bid and even negotiated $12k off of the purchase price while we were in escrow! We thoroughly enjoyed working with Lien every step of the way and will definately be working with her in the future!

Lien is truly amazing at what she does. She knows the market inside and out and helped me buy my first investment property in Boston, from over 3000 miles away. As someone who was completely new to the market in MA, I had to rely on Lien a lot for her advice on location and her referrals - she did not disappoint, right down to helping me find a good PM company to manage this rental. Communication is always on point as I have never had to wait more than 5 mins to get a response from her, even at odd hours (do you even sleep?). I am very excited about working with her on a new purchase soon!

The reviews don't lie - as a first time investor who purchased a first multi with Lien, I found her organizational skills, clear and intelligent communication, thoroughness, and honesty very calming. I felt that she was on my team at all times. She won't just put you on her mailing list so you get spammed with listings, but will work to find matches based on your needs. This is particularly impressive, because my needs evolved throughout the process, yet she did not miss a beat. Lastly, not only is she a part of your team, but will help you grow yours with her rich network of references and contacts (laywers, PMs, lenders, you name it) without being pushy or limiting your options - as an investor herself, she knows who you need to talk to before you even know you need to.

Patrick also has a vast knowledge of the different types of properties out there (single family, condo, multi family, etc.), including the pros and cons of each, and which was the best fit for what we were looking for long term. Patrick also came with us to do walkthroughs of multiple different properties, while also pointing out not only the strengths of each property but also the weaknesses of each as well that could turn out to be issues down the road. Overall, Patrick made our home buying experience a lot less hectic and significantly more smooth than many of the horror stories that we have heard that our peers experienced.

She provided us with rental comps and A LOT of guidance throughout the process as we're both first-time buyers. Lien was also patient and very understanding when we felt burnt out and wanted to take a break in the middle. In the end, she helped us score a property that matched our criteria with a good price, thanks to her negotiation skills. She has great knowledge of the local Boston area and an extensive network of other contacts that we could tap into.

Lee was over at the property a day later taking photos. A few days after that, she had organized group showings of the apartment. The lease signing occurred approximately one week after my initial contact. The tenant was thoroughly screened, and the rent rate was the amount initially projected.
This was a very good experience. There were no frustrations or miscommunications. The team did what they said they were going to do, and they acted more quickly than I even hoped or expected. I received excellent service.

Hello,
I find myself fortunate to find Lien Vuong when I joined Bigger Pockets. I reached out to her at first because she got really high reviews here. I also interviewed a couple of other real estate agents but I ended up going with Lien because from our initial conversation, I feel that she is a personality match for me when it comes to finding properties. She is knowledgeable, reliable, well-organized and most importantly, very honest. She pointed out to me what is good and what is not good about the properties we saw and did not rush me into anything, which I appreciate. I think if you are first time investor like me you will find it even more beneficial to have her as your real estate agent. As you know, for first time investors, we might have a lot of concerns or questions so we need to go with the right agent who can help us find the right property. She answered all of my questions promptly and guided me well throughout the whole process. I will definitely come back for her help for future investments. She is very professional and is a great negotiator. Even after we purchased the property, she still answers our questions timely and proves to be very helpful.

Lien was very good at negotiation and dealing with difficult sellers/agents. There's a couple times we were facing unresponsive and unreasonable seller agents. Lien was able to find ways to communicate with the other sides and get our offers through.

Lien is genuinely passionate about what she does, and helping others in fulfilling their RE dreams, while being very friendly and easy to work with in the process
I am now a proud first time multi-family owner and Lien played a HUGE part for where i am today. She has not only assisted with the real estate agent aspect but also connected me with an excellent loan officer and attorney from her contacts and truly made the entire experience easy and smooth especially as a first time investor.
Lien has gone well above and beyond to make sure I was absolutely and completely satisfied with my needs and expectations and nothing less. She has been 100% engaged from the start and truly took on the task as she would have for her own properties. Lien continues to offer her time to advise me and personally help me navigate through property management challenges post purchase.
I absolutely recommend Lien to anyone and look forward to seeking Lien's services again down the road for future RE ventures.

Hello,
Liens work ethic paired with her understanding of the investment side of real estate is what makes her most valuable. She has advised me on multiple deals both when selling and buying. I always seek her insight and trsut her guidance. Her go getter attitude enables her to find numerous off market deals every week which provides value to professionals like myself who are always looking for the right deal to jump on. I highly recommend working with Lien to anyone looking to achieve their goals in real estate.

To whom it may concern,
I have had the pleasure to work with Lien Vuong as my Real Estate agent and networking/relationship builder. As a proactive individual who is knowledgeable of the Boston market, she is constantly on the prowl for properties to flip and buy/hold based on my requirements and financial needs. With her network/contacts, I have been able to build a team to reach my real estate goals. During my time with her, Lien has demonstrated her commitment to being both a Buyers and Sellers Agent at all price points and neighborhoods. As a Buyer’s Agent, she is dedicated to staying within our determined price point and focused neighborhood priorities. I can’t think of a better, more qualified real estate agent to work with on residential homes. Her friendly dispositions coupled with a strong moral compass are attributes I admire. When complications arise, Lien is an expert in maneuvering through the myriad of situations to find amiable solutions, even if it has required walking away from a deal.
You can bet when the time comes and another change is needed, it’s Lien Vuong I will choose to call on to guide us through the real estate process once more!

As a first time investor, I had a million question in mind and I was very anxious to get started. Lien has spent a lot of time with me both in person and over the phone to make sure that I understand my options, discuss pros and cons of each property we identified, do the analysis of the investment, and even educate me on construction types and choice of materials, etc. She even went out to check out properties on my behalf when I was not comfortable to go open houses. She was very patient, responsive and extremely helpful. Even though I decided to postpone my investment activities until I get more clarity about the market, she was never pushy or has never made me uncomfortable.

Your search ends here. Hire Lien.
As a first time home buyer, becoming a Bigger Pockets member was a no brainer. By leveraging the calculators, forums, and podcasts, I was equipped with the knowledge to get started on closing my first deal. It wasn't until I experienced a generic corporate-like real estate agent that I knew I needed to work with someone who shared my investing interest at heart.
I hired Lien because she immediately knew what good and bad investments looked like. Not only is she a real-estate agent, but she is a investor herself. Lien walked me through properties pointing out what minor or major things I could do to increase the ARV. As a newbie to the real-estate world, I had numerous questions, and Lien was there to answer all of them.
I closed on my first property within 2 months of working with Lien and I couldn't be happier.
Knowledgeable, professional and an excellent communicator. She will not blindly nod and agree with you, but challenge you to think with an investor's mindset when looking at a property.
If you want to close on a deal, Lien is your pick.

I will echo the excellent reviews. Found Lien through other recommendations on Bigger Pockets. Lien is an excellent real estate investor who helped me acquire a 2-family investment property in the greater Boston area. She has an extensive range of geographic knowledge and market insights in the area. I had specifics of what properties we were looking for in a few different towns and she proactively sent listings. During walkthroughs, she was helpful in providing thoughts on what was a reasonable price point, estimated cap-ex, value-adds, and not-worth-its. At the time of close, she also went out of her way to coordinate with the seller agent an adjustment in agent fees (both buyer and seller) to my benefit because of a not-quite-right situation (ie. She is very fair. This was a unique situation so probably would not pertain to every purchase). She is very well connected for every step of the purchase/rehab process and has tips for each part. Finally, Lien is professional and works hard, giving you time and sweat effort. Lee, her team-member, also was great and equally responsive. I will definitely be reaching out to her again.

My time working with with Lien lasted a few weeks. While this is my first property, I wasn’t sure what to expect...but I always felt rushed when speaking to her and as she she was trying to talk down to me. I sent her several properties in which she responded late to - two days after, one property was already under contract.
Her assistant set up 3 showings, but in fact - I found out 2 were already under contract. I don’t have $3 mil budget, so it felt like she wasn’t interested to begin with.
It felt like she was doing me the favor and I should be happy to work with her. In fact, when I followed up on scheduling showings from our previous conversation, she mentioned forgetting but that I could go to the open house by myself....when I asked for single showings. She sent me an email stating that we’re not a personality fit.
Never heard that before. I just would like to get started and super excited to buy my first property.

Hey BP,
Whether you're a first time RE investor or a seasoned investor, Lien Vuong is who you want on your team!
Lien kicked off working with us by walking us through the entire property buying process and even connecting us with a great lender! She hooked us up with an investment calculator that I've used to evaluate every one of our potential deals.
The first property we wanted to place an offer on we had checked out without Lien. She went to the house herself the next day and sent us back a defect list that would put most home inspectors to shame!
Lien is incredibly knowledgeable on the entire Boston metro area. Our search criteria was anywhere from Everett up to North Andover along I93 and we were very impressed at the understanding she had of each of the neighborhoods. Lien met us and walked with us through every property we wanted to check out, even in our very large search area!
She was with us every step of the way and was very quick to respond to our questions. Lien has a high sense of urgency and will put in the work to get your offer put in ASAP. On one occasion she got us into a private showing and got our offer in when the house was only on the market for 24 hours! On another she sent our offer out at 10pm on a Saturday to make sure our offer was the first on the table for a highly motivated seller.
Fellow realtors beware- Lien has a sharp eye and a nose for bullsh*t.
Lien is someone you want on your team! It feels like touring houses with your best friend-she will give her honest opinion on a property and keep you from making mistakes! I truly feel that she was invested in our success and she always took the time to walk us through the possibilities and pros/cons with each property we we interested in.
Lien helped us buy our first investment property- a two family in North Andover, MA. She helped us get an offer accepted that was $10k under a competing bid and even negotiated $12k off of the purchase price while we were in escrow! We thoroughly enjoyed working with Lien every step of the way and will definately be working with her in the future!
