Fall River climbs steeply from the shore of Mount Hope Bay, a city built on granite hills and on the cotton mills that once made it a textile powerhouse. Massive stone mill buildings still line the Quequechan River and the city’s neighborhoods, many now converted to new uses. The Braga Bridge, Battleship Cove and a revitalized waterfront anchor the city’s western edge.

Homes in Fall River are notably diverse: triple-deckers and multi-family homes in neighborhoods like Flint and Corky Row, grand Victorians in the Highlands, capes and ranches toward the city’s eastern and northern sections, and condominiums in converted mills. Dolan O’Rourke works with buyers and sellers across southeastern Massachusetts and Rhode Island, and we can help you navigate Fall River’s many neighborhoods.

I had the absolute pleasure of working with John Dolan and Dolan O’Rourke Real Estate Services while selling my mother’s home. We were going through an extremely difficult transition. We were both unfamiliar with the process of selling a home. From day one, John made himself readily available and kindly explained every part of the process to my mother, always making sure she understood each detail. His knowledge and expertise goes far and above what we expected. His constant communication never left us guessing – we felt very involved in every part of the process. I was caring for my mother on my own and he did everything in his power to ease the burden of selling her property. John knew I had great anxiety over our difficult situation and would always tell me not to worry. He always found a resolution to every bump in the road- and now I am finally worry free! John made us feel cared for and safe. We cannot thank him enough for his hard work. He helped us find a deal that we never could’ve imagined and changed our life for the better!

We worked with John of Dolan O’Rourke Real Estate Services to purchase our first home in the Greater Boston area. As first time home buyers, John invested a lot of time early on to educate us about what to expect and strategies to consider. Throughout the process John had great communication, listening and advice as we navigated a challenging market. John was approachable, knowledgeable and always fun to be around as we looked at numerous houses, and helped us shape our conversations to really dial in to what we were looking for. We would love to recommend John for future real estate services and are so appreciative of his hard work.
