My fiance and I met Herb at an open house in South Berwick. We were immediately struck by his warm demeanor and knowledge of the area, we knew we wanted him as our agent. Herb diligently worked to help us find a house within our budget in a suitable location where we could settle down and raise a family. Herb helped us with making an offer and finding someone to perform the inspection, he was with us every step of the way. Now we are married, in a warm home, with a new baby on the way. Thanks Herb for helping make this possible.

Herb is an outstanding realtor! He is focused on helping his clients and very attentive to all your needs. We were stressed out selling and buying at the same time and Herb made it all easy.

He was very helpful when I was shopping for houses. Also, always available when I needed during the whole closing process, even when I just have questions. He is very attentive agent.

Herb was very helpful and determined. He was very professional and was always available when we had questions. Would highly recommend him as a realtor!

I have known Herb for many years and the real estate fever must have been a mission because he never said a word about it until he showed up with business cards, and I was impressed. As things turned out my father was very sick and needed to be moved to assisted living and his home was to be sold as part of his estate. This was a huge surprise to the people involved and I, as executor, was in need of a person in real estate that was trustful and understanding of the importance of this to my family. Herb was an excellent agent for me because, he fit the M O perfectly and he did the due diligence with a smooth pace and confidence. Herb & his team of professionals came through with a buyer in 2 days with an offer above list cost. All went through very smoothly. We are pleased and will recommend Herb to anyone interested in selling or buying a home. There's a lot of choices out there and he is a good one!

Herb is very knowledgeable about homes in NH, and homes in general. If he notices anything suspect about a property you can bet that he will follow up on it for you until both he and you are satisfied. He truly wants you to find the perfect home, and he takes that personally.

Herb was a tremendous help to us in sourcing and finding the right home for our move to New Hampshire. While we were interested in new build, he helped us to understand the market for new homes and pre-owned properties. He developed an extensive list of homes that might fit our needs, and worked tirelessly with us as we researched and viewed more than 30 properties across the Seacoast. We eventually settled on a new build - which Herb helped us negotiate and agree favorable terms with the builder. We really loved working with Herb and would gladly recommend him to anyone seeking to find their next home.

I have known and have done business with Herb Colby for over 20 Years. It is always a real pleasure to connect with Herb as he is a gentle and trustworthy person. In all of my transactions I have always been placed first as his client and now as a great friend. When you do any type of business with Herb you can rest assure that you will be taken good care of. I want to wish Herb all the best and good luck in all you do.

I looked for an agent who was familiar with multigenerational properties.  My first call to The Gove Group was answered by Herb Colby.  After our conversation I became convinced this was the agency and agent I wanted to list my home with.  Herb Colby & Michelle Sullivan had my home under agreement within a month and we closed in 60 days from when it was listed!  This was the professional side.  What I really want to talk about is the warm, caring and considerate people Herb & Michelle are. Not only did they get the job done as professionals but we all enjoyed working together.

We have bought and sold a couple of houses in our past. We understand how nerve racking this whole process can be. Herb is a very ambitious realtor. Keeping our bottom line in mind he made our home selling experience a breeze. He had our home under agreement in less than a week. He is now guiding us through the purchase of a new build. He keeps us in the loop of every step of the process. He is one of the nicest friendliest people you will meet. I would highly recommend him to anyone.

I found that Herb truly works for the seller. He kept me informed of everything from the very beginning...from the open house that he took care of, to letting me know every offer from a buyer. I never had to worry about the house after moving everything out because he went there often to check on things. He took care of everything for me at the closure, from all the paperwork to the place where I went to sign the final papers. If any of my friends decide to sell, I certainly will let them know how easy it was for me to have Herb Colby as an agent.

I recently had the pleasure of working with Herb Colby. He was instrumental in assisting me with a home sale as well as purchasing a new build. Attention to detail and diligence throughout the process were some of the benefits of working with Herb. He also takes the time to celebrate the accomplishment and emotional component of a move. I would recommend Herb to anyone who is looking for someone who will work hard to find answers and be available from start to finish.

I recently moved from FL to NH and was not able to be present for any of the home buying process.  I had to conduct the entire process remotely.  With Herb as my agent, I was completely at ease knowing that he was doing an excellent job representing me.  I had full confidence in him and knowing that he was taking care of everything that needed to be done in my absence was really what made the whole purchase possible. Thank you, Herb!

Herb is and was the best realtor that anyone could ask for while searching for a first home. From the moment we met him, we knew it would be an easy and wonderful experience working with him. His dedication and knowledge for real estate is outstanding and shows throughout the time you are able work with him. Having to go through the process of finding a house, during a pandemic, is not what anyone asks for, but he was willing to go to any open houses that we requested, while following regulations and time away from his weekends. There were constant phone calls, texts, and emails and he replied almost instantly or as soon as he possibly could, without any hesitation. The service you receive from him and the Gove Group will not let you down and we are forever grateful we found our first home with him by our side!

On top of being fun to work with Herb is a real estate professional. He was excellent in leading me through the selling cycle, qualifying buyers, understanding their goals, and more importantly sharing the progress as we went through the closing. Herb took care of everything, and made sure that everything moved along in the contract process. I would use him again, and again. A real professional, and a great person.

I have used Herb Colby as my realtor twice now, both on the buying and selling side. There are not enough words to say how incredible of a realtor he is. Very easy to get a hold of and quick to respond to any questions I had. Herb is extremely knowledgeable and was always one step ahead of me even if I did not know it yet- almost like a mind reader.  His attention to detail from start to finish made the buying and selling process very smooth and easy.

I have worked with Herb Colby and his partner Michelle Sullivan numerous times , both buying and selling of properties and have always had good experiences with them . They are very professional and extremely talented in reading the market and knowing how to properly market a property to get their clients the most value for the property. They are highly recommended by myself and my family.

My husband and I were very fortunate to have worked with Herb and Michelle during the sale of our Hampton condo.  Their knowledge and professionalism  made the selling process extremely easy.  We had one open house and our condo sold for above asking price.  We were so pleased with their work that when a second property in our family was ready to be put on the market we immediately contacted Herb and Michelle again.  Our second property also sold quickly and for above asking price.  I would highly recommend them for any real estate transaction.

When we decided it was time to consider moving from Cape Cod up to southern New Hampshire, we contacted the Gove Group to help us explore our options.  We initially met with Herb Colby and Michele Sullivan, who took the time to truly understand what we were looking for and what our needs were.  This discussion also helped us to better understand ourselves what we wanted and what options there were for us to consider.  Herb took the lead to take us around to see many properties in the area and very quickly we came to settle on a new home in Canterbury Commons.  

Herb was with us throughout the entire process, from initial contract through construction and final closing.  He helped keep us informed and sent pictures regularly as construction progressed, as well as providing guidance and measurements as we contemplated moving in.  Herb also did a wonderful job of researching and referring us to a wonderful realtor on Cape Cod who did an excellent job of selling our home there.  Herb was truly a partner to us as we made this move happen.

We can’t speak highly enough of the value and comfort that Herb and the Gove Group brought to what can be a stressful and challenging period.  Their knowledge, professionalism and expertise were without question.  But most importantly to us was the quality of the relationship that developed.  We would recommend Herb and the Gove Group to anyone considering a move to this area.
