Specializing in a broad client base, Ben Leavitt serves Greater Boston with a focus on South End and Cambridge. Leavitt is a residential real estate expert in his eighth year in the field. “My clients run the gamut from first-time to luxury homebuyers, and everything in between — including investors,” he shares. Gaining most of his business organically through referrals and networking events, he describes himself as a relationship-based real estate agent. Through partnerships with local hospitals and network referrals, he has bolstered a significant client base in the medical and legal professions and continues to enjoy diverse customers at every phase of the real estate lifecycle.
He credits Compass’ robust platform for being integral to his growth. “It has everything I need in one well-designed interface,” he says. By leveraging social media and cutting-edge company tools, Leavitt delivers stellar results while creating a seamless transaction process. He notes, “I also have great partners — lenders and attorneys as well as reputable vendors — for anything they need along the way, before and after the sale.” Leavitt’s successes include having doubled his sales production in 2023, a year viewed as challenging by many. An engaged professional, he holds memberships in his local and national Realtor associations and is a member of a LevelUp mastermind group.
He resides with his wife and co-principal of his team, Stephanie, and together they recently welcomed home a baby girl. They purchased a property in Melrose that is now their primary residence, adding to their growing portfolio of real estate. He enjoys many pastimes when his schedule allows, including travel, fine dining and quality time spent boating on Lake Winnipesaukee.
Leavitt summarizes his business style by noting, “My clients are always in the driver’s seat and I’m the GPS — I guide them where they want to go.”
