Testimonials

I can’t say enough about how fantastic our experience was working with Carla to purchase our very first house. She was there every step of the way with great advice. We felt 100% supported at all times during a process that is naturally stressful! Carla is extremely knowledgeable and really thinks through what an individual family needs. Once we found our home, Carla kept in close touch to keep us on track and make sure we had all of the information we needed. We are so grateful to have had the opportunity to work with her!

Lisa helped us purchase our first home in June of 2014. As nervous first time home buyers Lisa struck the perfect balance of laid back and responsive with us. When we finally took the plunge and put an offer in on a house she advised us on all our options but put no pressure on us. During closing we had issues with our Lawyer and Lisa became a bull dog. She did everything she could to ensure that we could close on time without incurring a penalty from our rental in the city. Beyond that Lisa is an invaluable resource within the town. We used her contractor recommendation to renovate a bathroom. Our contractor was fantastic. All of Lisa's recommendations have been fantastic. We have also had Lisa advise us on the renovating process. And finally I have recommended her to all of my friends that have wanted to move here and all of them have had the same experience with her as I did. She is smart, knowledgeable, helpful and an all around pleasure to work with.

When our family decided to sell our home in Maplewood's Golf Island we knew we were going to enlist the help of friend and neighbor Lisa Danbrot. Lisa knows the Maplewood market intimately and was able to capture what was desirable about our home in the superb marketing materials she and her colleagues developed. More importantly, Lisa listening to us, spent the time to understand what was critical in our minds about the sale and consistently kept us doing our part through the milestones of the listing/sale process. Her professionalism and skill paid off with multiple offers within days of listing and culminated with a successful completed sale that closed on schedule, allowing us to stay in our home during the school year while reaping the benefits of the prime spring market. We can't thank Lisa enough for her practical approach and complete dedication to us in this endeavor. With all the uncertainty surrounding real estate transactions (we have bought and sold 3 homes since 2003) it pays to have a smart and honest realtor who can navigate the ups and downs and above all have your back. Lisa did just that!

Lisa was helpful, insightful, and professional. She was incredibly patient and kept in close communication with us throughout the entire process. She was readily available at anytime and willing to set up appointments, answer our questions, and provide suggestions---she made our experience fun! Lisa never made me feel pressured to buy and always had our best interest in mind. We could not recommend her more.

Lisa was all we could have wanted in an agent. We couldn't have been happier. The whole process from start to finish was smooth and professional. I can't recommend her enough.

I couldn't be happier to have worked with Lisa as my buyer's agent. Through the entire process of searching for home that was right for my two small children and me, and subsequently a near miss with one property and a protracted, complicated transaction with a second, Lisa maintained calm and a great sense of humor. She was genuinely focused on our best interests at all times, encouraging me to walk away from a situation that wasn't right, and was proactive and extremely responsive in communicating with all parties. She has a unique combination of qualities: sensitivity to the intangible qualities that make a house speak to you, and laser focus on the practical nuts and bolts of home quality and real estate transactions. I am delighted to share my highest recommendation for her work (as I frequently do with anyone who is looking to buy a home in Essex county.)
