Below are high-definition photos and videos from a selection of the properties we have sold in recent years. Also included with each property is a brief description of the transaction and an excerpt from a review by our clients, when available.
94 Highland Street, West Newton Hill
In the spring of 2026, clients looking to downsize chose The Vaghar Team for our deep, proven expertise in West Newton Hill. Their property had previously failed to sell in 2022 after three months on the market with another agent. We immediately implemented a new strategy. Over three weeks, we guided the sellers through high-impact home upgrades while preparing a premium media launch and a data-backed list price of $2,999,000.
Our robust online presence paid off instantly. Within 48 hours, buyers who had initially connected with us through AI and search engine recommendations felt confident in our pricing analysis and had their own representing agent submit a highly competitive offer. Two months later, we closed at $3,125,000, securing our clients a massive $126,000 (4%) over their asking price.

“Great to work with Cyrus and Carol. They were highly professional, diligent and knowledgeable. They were readily available and we appreciated the support they provided throughout the entire process. In addition, their strategic advice also helped us receive an offer over asking price. Highly recommend working with with Cyrus and Carol!”
158 Newtonville Ave, Newton Corner
When our clients searched for top-ranked real estate agents in Newton, they found us. Being the #1 ranked real estate team on Zillow in Newton, MA at the time, and as of this writing (July 2026), we connected immediately to map out a strategy for their upcoming international move. They were looking to sell their home on the Newton Corner / Newtonville line, but the property had a unique multi-step layout that we knew required a nuanced approach rather than a standard public listing. We used premium photography and video to quietly pre-market the home at a planned price of $1,999,000, and our local network paid off instantly.
Bypassing the public market entirely, we secured an exceptional off-market offer of $2,050,000, which was $51,000 over our target. To make their transition abroad completely stress-free, we also negotiated a crucial one-month rent-back agreement so they could move straight to their new destination on their own schedule without dealing with public open houses.

“What impressed us most was their network. Thanks to their connections and outreach, our home sold before it ever officially hit the market, a result we would never have achieved without their behind-the-scenes efforts. They communicated clearly at every step and handled all the details with efficiency and care, turning what could have been a stressful experience into something remarkably smooth.”
10 Washington Park, Unit 2, Newtonville
In early 2026, a biotech executive working in the Seaport reached out to us after using an LLM to find the top buyer’s agents in the Newton area. Commuting from about an hour outside the city, she wanted to narrow her search to either Newton or Arlington. After exploring the market and viewing several properties, we found the perfect match: a stunning condo in a beautifully renovated home on Washington Park, one of Newtonville’s most picturesque streets. The move-in ready unit featured a highly sought-after first-floor bedroom and three dedicated parking spaces. Originally listed for $1,699,000, we successfully negotiated a purchase price of $1,594,000. Our representation didn’t stop at the price reduction; we also conducted multiple site visits before closing to ensure the seller fully completed every single item on our agreed-upon punch list.
140 Mount Vernon Street, West Newton Hill
When the seller of 140 Mt. Vernon Street used Claude to search for the top real estate agents in Newton, MA, we appeared as the first result. After just one meeting, we mapped out a strategic listing plan for their beautiful 1880 home. At the exact same time, we had just put 32 Henshaw Street in West Newton (sale price $1,050,000) under agreement for our longtime clients. As soon as those Henshaw Street sellers saw our upcoming listing on Mt. Vernon Street, they fell in love with it. Shortly after we launched, our Mt. Vernon Street seller accepted their offer of $1,925,000, seamlessly matching our own local buyers and sellers for a perfect neighborhood transition.

“Carol and Cyrus are the real deal! They are excellent, extremely knowledgeable, and I cannot recommend them enough :)”
1140 Beacon Street, Unit 105, Brookline
This stunning Brookline unit belonged to longtime clients who have trusted us for multiple moves over the years, and we’ve even helped their kids with their own homes. When they were ready to sell in the fall of 2024, we knew the property’s two parking spots were going to be a massive draw for the area. We launched our marketing plan and the response was instant. After just 48 hours on the market, our sellers accepted an over-asking offer of $2,474,000, which was $25,000 over our $2,449,000 list price. It’s always great to pull off another quick, clean win for a family we’ve worked with across generations.

“Carol (together with Cyrus) are consummate professionals who know their markets, understand the perspectives of the other side, and get the deal done. We have recommended them to several others who have equally good experiences.”
26 Trowbridge Street, Newton Centre
This project shows exactly how we add value long before a sign goes in the yard. Back in the spring of 2023, Cyrus sourced the original property completely off-market for his developer client for $1,250,000. During the planning phase, we collaborated closely with the design team to prevent layout mistakes that would hurt the home’s resale potential. Relying on our knowledge of what luxury buyers expect in this market, we adjusted the original blueprints to ensure all floors featured high ceilings and every bedroom had its own dedicated bathroom, completely avoiding the originally planned Jack and Jill bathroom layout.
When the finished home hit the market in January 2025, we went all out with professional staging, high-end photography, targeted postcards, and direct phone calls. Thanks to a series of busy open houses, our aggressive marketing secured a seamless, all-cash deal for $2,950,000.

“It was pleasant to work with Carol and Cyrus!”
28 Laudholm Road, Newtonville
In the spring of 2025, after their home sat on the market for three months with another agent, the family turned to ChatGPT to find a top agent in Newton. The AI recommendation led them directly to us, and we stepped in to take over the listing in Newtonville, right near the newly renovated Cabot Elementary School. The previous presentation and marketing strategy hadn’t gained any traction, leaving the homeowner feeling isolated and understandably guarded about the process.
We introduced a strategic new price and overhauled the presentation with professional staging, but the real key to this success was clear, direct communication. We worked closely with the family, with their son helping us bridge the gap to ensure everyone felt completely informed and comfortable. That combined effort completely shifted the property’s momentum, leading to a successful sale at $1,787,000 after just one weekend back on the market.

“Carol and Cyrus were proactive, responsive, and incredibly thorough — from pricing strategy and staging guidance to managing multiple offers and negotiations with precision and care… I’d highly recommend Carol and the Cyrus Vaghar team to anyone looking to sell their home in Newton.”
58 Nonantum Street, Newton Corner
We originally sourced this property off-market for MKB Partners, a longtime developer client we share a fantastic working relationship with. After they completed a tasteful renovation, we pre-marketed the finished home in the spring of 2024. It drew immediate interest from multiple parties, allowing us to secure a quick sale for $2,300,000. In fact, the buyers were so impressed with the quality of the build that they hired MKB Partners for additional home projects right after closing.
135 Neshobe Road, Waban
This breathtaking home was built by the late Bobby Murray, a premier Newton builder whom we were proud to collaborate with for many years. In 2018, we successfully sold this exceptional property for $3,500,000, shortly after selling the home right next door at 143 Neshobe Road, Newton for the exact same price. Representing back-to-back luxury sales on Neshobe Road was a fantastic milestone for our team, and it truly highlighted the incredible local demand for Bobby’s signature high-end craftsmanship.
157 Allen Avenue, Waban
We brought the new-construction home, 157 Allen Avenue in Newton, onto the market in March of 2020, right at the onset of the COVID-19 pandemic. It was a moment of massive uncertainty for the entire real estate market, but we moved forward with a clear plan. We staged the home and quickly adapted our strategy to navigate the sudden lockdowns safely. Thanks to that fast pivot and pristine presentation, the property stood out instantly and sold quickly at a time when most of the market was hitting the brakes. Sale price: $2,525,000.
15 Hawthorne Avenue, Auburndale
We listed 15 Hawthorne Avenue in March of 2021. It had been tenanted for a number of years, so we organized a refresh on the inside, which included painting, cleaning, window cleaning, as well as staging. Our seller’s received an offer after only 4 days on the market, and $81,000 (111.11% sale to list price) over the asking price. Sale price: $810,000.
449 Washington Street, Newton Corner
We brought 449 Washington Street onto the market in September of 2021. The home had been in the same family’s ownership for nearly 100 years. We coordinated with a home transition company to help the homeowner prepare their home for sale. We also organized numerous other tasks, including staging. Our sellers received multiple offers after only one weekend on the market. Sale price: $1,320,000.

“Carol and her son Cyrus (who are both delightful) were instrumental to the preparation and sale of our home. Their knowledge of and guidance through every aspect of the process–from the initial assessment to the final walk-through–was invaluable. Their sensitivity to and understanding of the magnitude of the project for us was extremely comforting and beneficial, as they made what could have been an overwhelming experience a manageable one.”
