A Needham-based real estate expert, Benna is making her fifth consecutive appearance on the list since 2022—a reflection of both her consistent production and longstanding commitment to clients throughout Needham and the Greater Boston area.
A longtime Needham resident and mother of three, Benna has built her business around a combination of market expertise, responsiveness, and hands-on guidance.
Leveraging her background as a CPA and management consultant, she brings a uniquely analytical and strategic perspective to every transaction—whether identifying off-market opportunities, advising sellers on pricing strategy, or navigating complex negotiations.
Known for her highly personalized approach, Benna works closely with clients through every phase of the process, from pre-market preparation to closing, helping buyers and sellers make informed decisions in competitive markets across Greater Boston.
Beyond industry recognition, Benna has built a reputation for delivering exceptional client experiences. Across dozens of reviews, clients consistently highlight her responsiveness, strategic guidance, market expertise, and unwavering advocacy throughout the buying and selling process.
Whether helping first-time buyers navigate a competitive market or advising longtime homeowners preparing to sell, Benna's hands-on approach has earned the trust of families across Needham and surrounding communities.
Benna’s recognition adds to a growing list of industry honors earned by CHARLESGATE agents across Greater Boston. Earlier this year, fellow agents P.T. Vineburgh, April Zelesnik and Maura Cutting were featured in Boston Agent Magazine’s 2026 Who’s Who edition, reflecting the continued strength and depth of talent across the brokerage.
As CHARLESGATE expands its presence in markets like Needham and Reading, the firm continues to attract experienced agents who value collaboration, independence, and long-term business building. For agents like Benna, that alignment creates an environment where high-performing professionals can grow their businesses while remaining deeply connected to the communities they serve.
Published annually, the list recognizes high-performing agents and teams across Greater Boston based on annual residential sales volume. To qualify for the 2026 list, individual agents were required to achieve a minimum of $20 million in closed sales volume during the 2025 calendar year, with submissions reviewed by local industry professionals for accuracy and inclusivity.
