ABOUT
The Best Opportunities Are Built From The Ground Up
Founded by seasoned Realtor Daniel O'Leary, 617 Living has become one of Boston’s leading real estate teams for home sales and luxury rentals.
Daniel O'Leary
hails from Boston’s North Shore and was raised around his family’s construction business. And that meant his summers were spent on job sites, becoming acutely familiar with both property construction and project management. After a stretch with the family business, Daniel segued into hospitality working for lauded restaurateur Barbara Lynch. But in due course, his direction shifted towards real estate, which was a natural progression from the high-touch, interpersonal world of hospitality.
