"5 Braemore is in a good location, easy access to a lot of transportation. As an international student the flat was great as I didn't have to buy any furniture or cutlery. There were some issues over the year but they were solved in a timely matter. Shira was great and very responsive. Cheers for the year!"

Milly Hale, UK BC student - 2017

"Very convenient location, close to the three Green Lines, steps away from the 'B'. Good option for BC and BU students. The neighborhood is lovely, the Reservoir is just a walk down from the apartment and the Boston Marathon path also passes nearby. Shira has been a great help, thank you for a great year!"

Daniela Fanelli, Emerson student from Italy - 2016

"5 Braemore road is a convenient residence for students with easy access to the B and C green line trains. I appreciated the fact that the place came furnished which allowed me to adjust to life off campus quickly. The Cleveland Circle neighborhood is also very pleasant with lots of amenities."

Jake Ishler, Berklee College of Music - 2016

"5 Braemore Road is in a great location for anybody wanting to come to BC, minutes away from restaurants and three T lines. The room I stayed in was the biggest in the apartment. As an exchange student, it was particularly helpful that the apartment, bedroom and kitchen came fully furnished. We had a few issues over the course of the year but they were resolved in a timely manner. Thank you!"

Sharlene Gandhi, BC exchange student - 2016

"Coming from Mississippi to Boston, 5 Braemore was an ideal location. Shira helped make the transition as easy as possible. The apartment had everything I needed. The apartment is an ideal location from BC and the Reservoir!!!! The T was central located, which was ideal especially in the winter! Thanks for a great year!"

Taneasha Redmond, Social Work, BC grad student - 2016

"Living in this apartment was great because everything you might need is easily within reach. Whether it’s the T stop right outside your door, or the close proximity to the restaurants of Cleveland Circle, it’s all within walking distance. The location is far enough away from the usual locations of South Street so those looking for a quiet apartment away from parties should look no further. And, with the addition of the new Comm. Ave bus stop through B.C., the shuttle even stops on the corner right across the street, adding to the convenience. Any problems or concerns were quickly answered by Shira, and overall the experience living here was great."

John Robertson, English & Linguistics Double Major, Boston College - 2016

"I have had a great experience at 5 Braemore Road. As a Boston College student the location was absolutely brilliant for me. The apartment is very conveniently placed right by the T-line, 10 minutes walk from the college, and very near to Cleveland Circle. Keeping in contact with Shira was very easy and professional. She was very responsive to our emails and any concerns we had. Thanks for a great year in Boston!."

Dan Willis, UK BC student - 2015

"Renting from Shira was a great experience. 5 Braemore has an ideal location. It's about two blocks from Cleveland circle, within walking distance of BC, is right on the B line and is on the BC shuttle route. Shira is friendly, professional, and very responsive. She ensures that the apartment is kept in good condition and that tenants' concerns are attended to quickly and fairly. The apartment was perfect for my first year of Grad School at BC."

Sean Lane, BC Grad student - 2014

"My experience at 5 Braemore Rd. has been awesome. The location is next to three different T lines so you can virtually get anywhere you need in Boston with no hassle. There is a beautiful Reservoir right down the street. Shira Levy was a big help and very responsive to anything that we needed help with. The apartment has everything you need! Thank you for everything over the past year and looking forward to another year in the apartment. Thank you!"

Tyler Schwartzman, Boston College - 2014

"As a Boston College student looking for an off-campus apartment, I could not have picked a better location to live than 5 Braemore. Within a five-minute walking distance, I could access the shuttle bus to the BC campus, three different T lines, more bus lines than I ever had need for, and all of the stores and restaurants in Cleveland Circle. Transportation in Boston can be difficult, and by choosing to live at 5 Braemore, I saved myself a lot of headaches. Shira herself was always very responsive to all of my phone calls and emails, and acted as an invaluable resource that I grew to appreciate over the year."

Robert Rossi, J.D. Candidate, Dean's Scholar,
Boston College Law School - 2013

"One great thing about the apartment is that it's a very convenient location for transportation (especially for BC students!). Directly in front of the B line, with easy access to the C & D lines as well. Also, right off of the 86 bus (which goes directly to Harvard Square) and the BC shuttle. Makes getting around very simple. Thanks."

Manny Mohareb, Boston College - 2013

"I have been living in the Boston area for the past 4 years and have used numerous realtors, but none were as caring, professional and sincere as Shira Levy. Although this was the first time I rented from her, it was not the first time she had rented to others. It was obvious she has been in the business for many years. The terms on her lease were well written, easy to understand and she even emailed reminders for monthly rent payments. If I had any questions, she was always quick to respond and honest with her response. If you are considering renting from Shira, do so. You won't find better service in Boston."

Roy Salguero, Berklee College of Music - 2013

"Communicating with Shira was always easy, especially when it came to managing the move at peak time before my first semester began. After moving in to Braemore, Shira frequently checked in, making sure we were doing okay. As for Braemore itself, the location is very convenient, as a BC student and as a person who enjoys spending the weekends out of Cleveland Circle. Living there was a great way to acquaint myself with the city, and Shira's hospitality made it considerably easier."

Jacob Reyna, Boston College - 2013

"Although the room I lived in was small, it had a private entrance and that was awesome. Shira Levy did everything in her power to make my year-long stay as comfortable as possible. She always responded to my emails, concerns and queries promptly, which made for an easy living experience."
