Client Testimonials
“Kara and Libby were phenomenal partners in listing and selling our home in Ridgefield. They took great care to listen to us and gain a true understanding of our property to guide them in their sales methods. Kara’s marketing prowess and vision for storytelling about unique properties is unmatched. We cannot recommend Kara and Libby enough and would suggest anyone listing a home in the area to consider this crew. They are at the top of our list.” —Lauren M.
“Kara and Libby are rock stars! We were first time homebuyers from out of state, and they couldn’t have been more helpful with every step of the process. Kara and Libby went above and beyond in helping to answer our questions, navigate the market, find local vendors and ultimately land our dream home. They are the consummate professionals but also super friendly and down to earth. We could not have asked for better realtors, and would recommend Kara and Libby to anyone.” —Declan and Becca
“Libby and Kara are my go to agents in CT. As a team, they seamlessly helped my wife and I search homes in a challenging market for buyers. They were punctual, kind, knowledgeable, and honestly very fun to work with. I appreciated their candor when we saw homes that weren’t great, and especially appreciated their enthusiasm when we found homes that could be right.” —Alex and Candice

Client Testimonials
“Experienced, knowledgeable, and kind, Kara and Libby were more than we ever could’ve asked for as agents as we set out to purchase our first home in this crazy market. They were immediately available for showings, and continued to check in multiple times to make sure everything was going well even after we closed. We’re beyond grateful to have worked with them, as Kara and Libby truly have their clients’ best interests in mind, and know their stuff when it comes to purchasing a home.”
—Aaron and Christine
“I’ve worked with Libby on the sale of 4 of my properties, and am so grateful to have her as my realtor. She went above and beyond to help us and make the process as smooth as possible and as profitable for us. I highly recommend her to anyone looking for a realtor!” —Cindy
“Professional and friendly, Libby guided us through the selling process, managed our expectations, and thought outside of the box. Where we had others counsel that we needed to do all sorts of upgrades in order to ‘compete’ in the market, Libby knew exactly how to market the house to show off its features. Thorough and responsive, she also had to calm our nerves in a process that was already fraught by nerves brought about by COVID and a country relocation. We initially bought through Libby, and six years later, after reviewing other candidates, she was the only person we felt was the right fit to sell our house.”
—Matt and Michelle
