About
My name is Theo Carmone, and I have been in sales and customer service for the past 14 years, with over 6 years as a full-time real estate agent.

It's not really about houses... It's about PEOPLE! I reside in Reading with my wife, Francesca, and our two daughters, Alessia and Ariana. To round out our family, we adore our German Shepherd, Harley. Having grown up in a "real estate home" with my mom as a long-time, successful Realtor, I feel I have been in the business since early childhood.

I sold in excess of $20M in real estate in 2024. I work with clients from all walks of life; my lowest sale last year totaled $150K, and my highest was $1,950,000. From first-time buyers to people looking for their forever home or their last, investors, or surviving family members of an estate sale, I pride myself on treating each client with a high level of customer service and integrity.

Ratings & Reviews

Drew McCarthy

Theo helped us buy our first home in Wakefield. As first time home Buyers, Theo helped walk us through everything from start to finish. He was responsive, honest, friendly and knowledgeable. He gave us a lot of tips and tricks in negotiating and presenting our offer that helped us stand out. He was able to get us into a great home at a great value in an extremely competitive market and we are very happy with the final result. He also had a great team that was able to process our loan incredibly fast which made for a smooth process. We'd highly recommend Theo!

Steve Smith

Theo did a great job listing my home. He was professional, transparent, trustworthy and knowledgeable. Theo was able to secure great buyers and coordinated the process following all the way through closing. I would definitely recommend getting in touch with Theo if you're looking to buy or sell a home in the Greater Boston Area.

Michelle Pike

Theo did an excellent job with the sale + purchase of my home. As a listing agent, I chose Theo because I felt confident that he was going to put the most effort into the process compared to other Agents in town. Theo went above and beyond in helping me prepare my home for sale. He doesn't hesitate to be hands-on and was attentive and very timely in his responses any time I had questions. Theo was able to bring in several offers on my property + negotiate an offer higher than any other agent thought was possible without any contingencies; both inspection and financing were waived. On the purchasing side, Theo handled some challenging circumstances being in a competitive market and helping me get into a brand new construction. He was able to negotiate the price far below asking price and drove all of the moving parts throughout the process up until after closing. I would gladly recommend Theo to anyone who is looking to list their home or purchase in the Greater Boston Area.

Jessica DeFinis

Theo, thank you so much for all of your hard work helping me find my home. I always appreciated your responsiveness and always felt you were advocating for me- in a process where many different people are looking out for their best interests. I knew you were looking out for me. Your strategy and communication skills were great throughout the offer process and I know that having you representing me helped secure the home in a competitive market. I am so incredibly happy with my home and can’t imagine being anywhere else!

Jessica O'Neil

I can't recommend Theo enough. Despite being extremely busy, I never felt like Theo had any clients besides us, and we worked him hard. This was our 1st time buying a home so we had a ton of questions on a daily basis, and were eager to see as many homes as possible, as quickly as possible. We saw 10+ houses per week with Theo for about 2 months straight and changed our preferences, desired neighborhoods, etc., nearly constantly. Somehow, Theo not only managed to keep up with all our crazy without making us feel like we were "too much" (we were 100% too much), he also helped us to keep our expectations realistic and to pinpoint what was actually important to at each turn. Theo helped us navigate those challenges and used his extensive knowledge to skillfully craft an offer that helped us land a house on our 3rd try. Further, when inspection turned up some items that concerned us, Theo negotiated with the seller to get us a significant credit at closing to cover the cost of the repairs.

Lauren and Alex Collins

Being first time homebuyers, we had no idea where to start. Luckily, we landed in the hands of Theo Carmone and couldn’t be happier. From beginning to end, Theo was attentive, responsive, and did everything he could to help get our dream home. Theo answered all of our txts, emails, and calls, worked around our schedules, and kept an open line of communication so we knew exactly what was happening and had no surprises. Theo did not just feel like our realtor but an invested family member who wanted us to succeed. We are happy to say that we just closed on our home and have Theo to thank for that. We definitely recommend Theo to anyone looking to buy (or sell) a home!

Amy Loews

We recently sold our 2-family home in Wakefield. Theo came highly recommended to us from friends and we could not have been happier with our choice to work with him. Theo was very knowledgeable of the market, honest & straight forward with us and kept us informed every step of the way. Our house sold in under a week, had multiple over asking offers and closed in just about a month. I was nervous going into the sale having never sold a house before but Theo made it simple, easy and even fun! I would not hesitate to recommend Theo as an agent for your future real estate endeavors. With Theo by your side, you are sure to come out on top! Definitely give him a call today to see how he can help you! You won’t be disappointed.

Sarah Milaschewski

If you’re looking for a reliable, honest, hard working, personable, trustworthy realtor, then Theo Carmone is your guy. He went above and beyond for us with the sale of our home, and genuinely cared about our wants and needs during the entire process. I always felt like Theo had no other clients besides us during the process, even though he was working with countless others. He always made us a priority, and would talk with us night or day about any questions or concerns we had, no matter how silly or small. During our open house and private showing process, he worked tirelessly and ended up getting us 136k over asking price for our home with many back and forth negotiations. I am extremely happy that we chose Theo to help us sell our home, and I highly recommend Theo to provide any real estate needs you may have—whether it be buying, selling or both!!

Eli Bossin

Theo is the best! We had to list our 2-bedroom condo while living (and working) there with a toddler and a dog in the middle of a pandemic. We were stressed! Theo made everything so smooth and easy. He gave us smart advice about how to best prepare our home without making ourselves crazy, and he went above and beyond to help us stage the place and get it looking fantastic. The photos came out amazing – our friends and family had never seen the place looking so good. Theo worked incredibly hard to make sure that our place sold quickly. In less than a week, we got four offers, all over asking price, and were able to get an extremely strong offer that allowed us to close quickly. Theo knows what he’s doing! He advised us perfectly about where to list in order to generate the maximum enthusiasm and multiple offers. You will not regret listing your home with Theo! If you do what he tells you, then you cannot go wrong.

Charles Urdang

Theo was fantastic in selling our condominium as part of an estate sale. It was a long and bumpy process starting when covid delayed everything, moving to buyers backing out of deals and then ending with a successful sale. Theo helped us every step of the way. The professionalism of Theo turned what might have been a nightmare experience into a pleasant one. I would highly recommend Theo if you are looking to list your property or need a buyers broker!

Michael Griffin

Theo is the best, he made the process super easy and always answered his phone when we called with questions. He was very knowledgeable about the area we were buying in and made suggestions to us that was in our best interest. Out of my experiences with Realtors Theo was the best.

Jeffrey Arena

Theo was my Realtor through the selling of my condo + purchase of a new home in 2021. Theo exhibited impressive knowledge of the real-estate market and ensured that I was making the smartest possible decisions as both a buyer and a seller. On the purchasing side, Theo quickly helped me better grasp the nuances of each community in which I was searching for a house. He listened carefully to my preferences and made thoughtful suggestions to help me consider all the options available. When it came time to make offers, Theo showed a thorough understanding of all features of negotiation, giving me the best possible chance at success in each case without any hint of pressure. On the selling side, Theo provided invaluable advice for when and at what price to list my condo. Theo's pricing judgment and people skills were absolutely killer. In short, Theo provides an excellent combination of market knowledge, drive, and people skills. I would use him again in a heartbeat.

Tom Effler

We are first-time homebuyers who started our home buying process in the thick of COVID when inventory was low and competition was high, and we never once felt outmatched because of Theo. As first-time buyers, we put a lot of trust and faith in Theo as the process was very overwhelming for us. Theo's flexibility and availability as we were living 1 hour away from our desired location to purchase was greatly appreciated, and a major factor in how we were able to navigate the current market landscape to land our first home. Theo is always respectful and honest, and as a buyer's agent he supports his clients in making great impressions with sellers/agents and determining if an offer is the right step for his clients. Theo's knowledge and expertise in the local area was invaluable to us, whether it was the North Shore or Greater Boston area. We could not recommend Theo enough, whether you are a first-time home buyer, seller, or veteran in the real estate game. Theo is your guy!

Marshall Pagano

Working with Theo was a great decision. As first time home buyers, we needed advice and lots of assistance, and Theo was able to provide all of that. The market was crazy competitive, but Theo was able to get us a great deal in a great spot. He made the whole process seem like a breeze. I would highly recommend Theo to anyone in search of a new home - he's a pleasure to work with.

Derek Retos

Theo was tremendous in our long process of buying our first home. He helped us each step of the way and we couldn’t be happier for the house we purchased. We would highly recommend working with Theo in your search for a new home.

Samantha and Pat O'Neil

I am extremely lucky to say that my husband and I were able to have a smooth home-buying process from start to finish - with Theo by our side the entire time. From our initial meeting to discuss our wants and needs when Theo went over the real estate process in detail, we knew we were in good hands. Although our desired area was ~45 minutes from Theo's home, he was ready and willing to attend private showings and open houses with us when available. When it came time to put in an offer on our home, Theo was supportive while also giving advice to make it the best offer it could be. After just one "non-accepted" offer, we were able to secure our now home (and beat out 15 other offers in the process!) The network of professionals he has on his side also ensured that the transaction was completed on time. Theo is a true professional and will be a guaranteed asset to your real estate transactions!

Jacob Kuschner

Theo was so great to work with! He was able to help us first time homebuyers find our dream home in a chaotic market. He was very knowledgeable about the areas we looked in and helped guide us through the home buying process. He was very communicative and was always able to answer any questions we had or direct us to someone who could answer our questions.

Tara and Ryan Rivard

Theo did a fantastic job with both the sale of our old home and purchase of our new home. He was very knowledgeable about the market in our area, and went above and beyond to make this experience as pain-free as possible. He was available at a moment’s notice for any last minute questions or concerns we had. Theo was able to get us almost $100k over our listed price for our old home! Highly recommend Theo for any of your real estate needs!

Alex Saba

The helped us buy our first home and we could not be happier with the result! We were referred to Theo by a family friend, and were extremely impressed with his organization, communication, and approachability. He knew we were new to the world of real estate and carefully walked us through each step to ensure we knew completely where we stood during the process. Through his realtor connections, he was able to get us in for a pre-showing ahead of the open house. Following Theo’s guidance, we made an offer that night, and it was accepted in the morning with no counter. Had the sellers continued with the open house we most likely would have been out bud. Theo’s experience ultimately got us a great deal on a great home! We highly recommend Theo as a real estate agent.

Amy Patterson

Theo was an amazing realtor to work with. We moved to MA from out of state and didn’t know the area at all. But luckily Theo was very knowledgeable and he answered all my questions about location, schools, commute times and more. He was very quick to respond to text, email or phone call. He got our offer accepted on the first house we bid on, which had 17 other offers, and that is very hard to do! We were very happy from start to finish working with Theo. Not only is he a great realtor, but a really nice guy which is important because this is a long process and you want someone like that with you along the way. I would definitely recommend Theo to anyone looking to buy or sell, we are in a house we love now because of him!

Amber LaMarca and Ryan Gormley

Theo was amazing to work with! He helped us with both the purchase of our new home in Amesbury and selling our current condo in Waltham. Theo made sure to take the time to really understand what we wanted and was instrumental to us finding our new home. I really appreciated his eye when we were looking at houses because he has a great knowledge of home renovations/costs if you think you would need to change something and can spot issues / cheap fixes. He always found a balance of seeing potential in a house and pointing out what was reasonable to fix vs being honest enough to help guide you when to walk away. We had many questions along the way and he always made sure to take the time to answer them fully and was great about talking through the pros and cons of different offer strategies before we did them. He never pressured us but always made sure we had the information we needed to make informed decisions.

Ruth Talbot

Theo is an extremely knowledgeable & experienced realtor and it was a pleasure to work with him. He demonstrates a very professional and caring approach to ensure that you reach your goal. Real estate transactions can be stressful but if you trust the process and put your trust in Theo, you will not be disappointed. He is always available and responsive to any questions. Cannot say enough good things about Theo Carmone and Colonial Manor Realty.

Christine Johnson

Working with Theo during our house hunting journey was exceptional. Theo was patient, considerate, and knowledgeable throughout the process, and we always felt like Theo had our best interest at heart. We were referred to Theo by family members who trusted him back in 2021 to land a home. We are so happy to be in our first home, and owe a big thanks for Theo for helping us get here. If you want a real estate agent who will be there for you and really listen, we couldn’t recommend Theo more.

Jill Teixiera

Theo helped my fiancé sell his condo and help us buy our first home together. He was a key part in making this all happen! I would highly recommend him!
