Newton, MA Move-Up & Family Home Specialist — English & Korean

I help growing families find the right home and sell the one they've outgrown across Newton, Boston, Cambridge, and the surrounding communities???

Why Work With Me

Why Work With Me

With a business education from Carnegie Mellon's Tepper School of Business, I bring an analytical, numbers-driven approach to one of the biggest financial decisions your family will ever make. Buying or selling a move-up home isn't just a transaction — it's about timing two moves, protecting your equity, and landing in the right school district and neighborhood for the next chapter. I serve clients fluently in both English and Korean, which means clear communication and cultural fluency at every step. The result for you: confident decisions, fewer surprises, and a smoother path from your current home to your next one across Newton and Greater Boston.

Local Market Intelligence

Move-up buyers compete in some of the most desirable — and fastest-moving — markets in Massachusetts. I give you the real data behind Newton, Needham, Cambridge, Somerville, Medford, and Boston: accurate pricing, neighborhood trends, school catchments, and where the true value lies. Whether you're trading up for more space or right-sizing for your family's next stage, you'll make every move backed by facts, not guesswork.

Move-Up & Family Focus

I specialize in helping growing families sell the home they've outgrown and buy the one that fits what's next.

English & Korean Service

I serve clients fluently in both English and Korean, bringing cultural fluency and clear communication to every deal.

Data-Driven Strategy

My Carnegie Mellon business background means your pricing and offers are grounded in real market analysis.

Greater Boston Coverage

From Newton to Boston, Cambridge, Somerville, Medford, and Needham — comprehensive regional expertise.

Your Journey Home

Your Journey Home

Selling and buying at the same time is a balancing act, and I've built my process to keep it from becoming stressful. We start with a clear strategy and an honest valuation of your current home, then coordinate your sale and purchase so the timing works for your family. From listing prep and negotiation to inspection, financing, and closing, I stay hands-on and responsive — guiding you the whole way and keeping you informed in the language you're most comfortable in.

What My Clients Say

My business is built on referrals from families I've helped move up, move on, and settle into their next home. Here's what working together has meant to them.

"Jung Yub Lee did a fantastic job helping us buy a new place and sell our townhouse in Newton Corner in 2024. The coordination between our sale and purchase was seamless, and we always felt informed and supported throughout the process."
