Ratings & Reviews
Judy was instrumental in the sale of our home. She is knowledgeable about the market, direct in her recommendations for what needs to be done in advance of the listing, and ultra responsive throughout the process. I would highly recommend Judy!
Judy has been our real estate agent for nearly 25 years. Having built and sold many homes in Westport and Weston, my family has relied on Judy's expertise to execute many of our real estate transactions. Judy's determination and ability to stay one step ahead of current real estate marketing strategies, has enabled her to sustain the position of #1 individual real estate agent in Westport, CT. I highly recommend Judy Michaelis.
Judy helped us sell our home in a difficult market. She made timely recommendations on how to best present our home and her team effectively marketed to the NYC buyers. Throughout the process she never panicked and knew that the property would speak to the right buyer.
As a developer, Judy Michaelis has helped me transact many purchases of land, and sales of my homes. On a personal level, my wife and I have built and sold many of our own homes. Very honestly and sincerely, we thank Judy Michaelis for being an integral part of these many purchases and sales. Judy's professional knowledge, tenacity and fortitude has made everyone of the several transactions that she has concluded for us a tremendous success. We can confidently say that there is no better realtor to get whatever purchase or sale you are considering completed in an exemplary and correct manner.
I have had various business dealings with Judy over the years on her open houses. Seeing how she worked and treated people made her an obvious choice to represent me when it came time to sell my house in Westport after 36 years.
She runs many popular events to showcase her properties and she is very well known and well thought of in our community.
Great contact network. Great strategic thinker for listing and showing and pricing a property. She is very personable but is a fearless advocate for her client as well. She is honest and doesn’t pull punches with her client or the buyers. Fair and savvy and a very hard worker. Highest integrity too.
Judy is the #1 producer in Fairfield County. We have used Judy a few times to both buy and sell and wouldn't think of using anyone else. She works tirelessly and is always reachable. She displays the utmost professionalism and comes to every appointment with a wealth of knowledge, and she has our best interests at heart. Judy visited our house, identified upgrades to make on our home so that it would show well - and it worked because we had 3 offers on our home within a week after it went on the market! Realistic pricing is critical, and through her vast knowledge of Fairfield County Real Estate she knows how to price a home for best results. She has also guided us as to what is and isn't a good investment purchase and this has saved us from making a wrong purchase, even if it wasn't what we wanted to hear. She knows the most thorough inspectors and lawyers, and the best people to use for construction, whether it's building from the ground up, a full gut or small renovation. She kno
Judy knows her local market inside and out and effectively shares her knowledge with the public. She has great relationships with her clients as well as other agents and is nothing but a joy to know. If you need real estate help in the Westport and surrounding areas, Judy should be your go to agent.
Judy sold my house in Westport, CT. She was very professional, with a fine attention to detail when staging the house. She even helped me fill my living room with furniture that made my living room stand out more. She went out of her way in marketing the house. I would recommend her to anyone.
We hired Judy to sell our home after a recommendation
from a friend that was very happy with Judy’s handling of their home sale. Needless to say, it was a great move and we are extremely happy with our decision. Judy helped us move seamlessly through the process and we cannot thank her enough for making the whole process effortless.
Not only is Judy Michaelis an excellent, professional broker with years of experience and countless sales, she is a long-term resident of the Westport community. Having raised her own family here, she is familiar with all wonderful things our town has to offer. She is innovative and inclusive in her marketing strategies, and always creating fun events. She goes above and beyond keeping in touch with clients and does all she can to help integrate them into their new home and community. I highly recommend her!
Judy was great from the beginning of the process until the end. Very smart with her ideas and straightforward in her approach. Selling a house can be a very unsettling experience and Judy made it work for us. Judy was always available to answer questions and quell concerns. We were very happy with the end result.
Judy sold us our house 20 years ago and has kept in touch ever since, keeping us updated on the market and showing us houses that might be of interest to us. Judy is very honest, always attentive, easy to get a hold of, and always puts her clients needs first. She goes out of her way (and scope of her job) to lend her expert advice - even if it’s to give her input on a floor finish or paint color! The other day we asked her for advice on exterior paint color (which is clearly out of her scope of responsibility) and she immediately drove by the neighborhood to give her assessment! I could go on about Judy and still not do her justice. Judy is a woman of high integrity. Upon this one individual, I’d gladly stake my reputation on truth and insight. We’re I deciding on who to you use to buy or sell my house, I’d want someone of Judy’s caliber and integrity on my team.
Judy is fantastic. Knows the market better than anyone, works above and beyond for her clients, always puts her client's interest first.
Judy Michaelis is a warm and caring professional. Due to family circumstances, I had to sell my dream house and find another house locally. Judy went above and beyond her realtor obligations and helped me through this difficult process. She found a suitable buyer in a difficult market and she found a treasure for me to purchase that fits exactly what I was looking for. During this process, Judy made herself available for any questions and concerns I had. She truly had my best interests in mind. She helped me emotionally and continues to check in with me to see if I am settled and happy. Judy is professional, knowledgeable, and experienced, all while being a friend. I would highly recommend her to anyone looking to buy or sell.
Having relocated 5 times in the past 20 years, I recognize the importance of having a realtor who is honest, straightforward, understands market conditions and is a good communicator. Judy is all of these things and more. She has good ideas as to how best to present your home and does what it takes to make the sale. She is also a calming influence in times of stress! Thank you Judy for helping us sell our home!
I've used Judy to buy a home, sell it, and rent a home in Westport. In every case her experience and knowledge made me feel like I could trust her completely and that I had the best representation. Not only does she get the job done, her price recommendations are spot-on and she even checked in to ask how I was doing throughout the process! You can't go wrong with Judy, she's the best.
Judy is such a pro! I’m a detailed person myself, and am so impressed at how Judy makes sure to cover every nook and cranny of the viewing and offer/contract experience. She’s wonderfully observant and resourceful - you really feel like she’s on “your team.” Can’t recommend her enough.

Judy was the selling agent for the home I bought in Westport. Since that time, she kept in touch with me and my needs in a very professional manner. When it came time to sell that lovely home, I had no hesitation on who should list it. From the time we sat down in the kitchen to agree to list it, three days later we had an accepted offer and a fully signed contract within a week. What more could anyone ask from an agent?
We could not have been more pleased with our experience working with Judy Michaelis in selling our home. Judy is experienced, insightful, savvy and was always available whenever we had any questions or concerns. She is also an incredibly pleasant, kind and thoughtful person. She made the process of selling and moving (though excellent referrals) far more smooth and manageable than we might have ever possibly imagined. We recommend her fully without reservation. We would welcome working with her again in any purchase or sale.
