“Leslie sold us our first home in Hartford in September 2016 and stayed in touch over the years without ever being pushy. About eight months ago, when we were seriously considering a move, I had already gotten prequalified but had not fully committed. Around that time, Leslie reached out, and I took it as a sign to move forward with her. Her market knowledge and guidance stood out immediately. She helped us understand our home’s value, brought in a stager who gave honest, practical feedback, and connected us with the right tradespeople. Every recommendation was thoughtful and effective. She set clear expectations and explained the process, which was especially helpful since our lender operated differently than a typical bank. Her communication was consistent and responsive, and she helped me fully understand our final commitment. We went from accepted offer to signed paperwork in 32 days. Leslie delivers, and we look forward to working with her again.”

“Adam is an incredible agent and we would recommend him to anyone.”
“Absolutely amazing experience! Nicole truly listened to my needs, took care of every detail, and got things done quickly and efficiently. She was my voice when I was busy with work and family ensuring nothing was dropped. Beyond being a fantastic agent, she's just a genuinely great person. Highly recommend!””
“Allison was amazing! She was knowledgeable and very patient not only when purchasing my home ,but also in the sale of my property. I appreciate her and I highly recommend her!”
“I've known Brittany for years through professionally and called her when we were considering buying. I appreciated the professionalism, realism and smart strategy that she brings to the table and extended to me and my family. The recent purchase was for a home a family member would be living in and initially we weren't sure who or how we would finance it, nor which town. Brittany took the time to understand our needs, provided thoughtful suggestions and listened to everyone's ideas (not easy with three highly opinionated family members). In today's scarce inventory market it took several months to find what we needed and Brittany was patient, focused and responsive throughout. Call her and see for yourself.”
“Lisa was truly incredible to work with. We were able to close on our dream home because of Lisa. She also got us a very quick closing (which we needed because we have a baby on the way). Lisa went above and beyond during the whole process!!”
“Sandie & her team were great, I highly recommend them!”
“A number of agents contacted me through Agent Pronto and all were very informative. I chose Amy Rio because she was the first to contact me and I felt very comfortable with her handling the sale. She was excellent, and I couldn't be happier with the outcome. I would recommend Amy to anyone. I'd also like to thank Agent Pronto for having her contact me.”
“My real estate agent, Jeff Gardner, was outstanding! Jeff took the time to get to know me. Jeff was not pushy, he listened to my concerns and gave me good professional advice in putting my house on the market. My house was sold in one day. I could attribute it to Jeff. I could not find a better agent than him. I found in him a competent, very professional agent and above all, a great human being. I would highly recommend Jeff. Thank you!”
“They sent me 2 to 3 agents to choose from, and I chose Christina Jacobi. She was hands down amazing. I went through a few people from other places and no one could help me with what I needed. Her overall personality and kindness was what we needed. Very efficient and communicates everything! ”
“These are different times. With COVID taking place, there were many regulations and ever changing restrictions/rules. Joe adapted to the new policies and facilitated the sale of our new home with ease. He sets the bar for the industry standard and I would not recommend anyone else.”
“Laura did an absolutely fabulous job of guiding us through the processes of selling our home. Her guidance and insight was spot on. She demonstrated a very high degree of professionalism. She is a terrific communicator. If I was to give her a rating of 1 to 10, it would be a 100. ”
