Testimonials

My wife and I had been talking about relocating from Texas to Connecticut. I was in CT over Memorial Day weekend and had some free time. I decided to go to an open house in Redding, which happened to be Julie's (that wound up being my lucky day). After I walked through the house, Julie and I talked for a while about the Fairfield County market, how quickly homes were selling, how firm sellers were on pricing, etc.. Her knowledge of the market, and realistic assessment of what it would take to be successful purchasing a home, was spot on....Urgency! I returned to Texas and told my wife that if we were really interested in moving back to Connecticut (we are both originally from there) we'd have to commit to it and get moving. We found two houses that we were very interested in so I called Julie to get the details. She explained that there was a lot of interest and that the one we liked most was in negotiation. I got on a flight the next morning (Friday) and Julie set up an appointment for me to tour the house on Saturday. I loved the house, got my wife's OK to go after it and decided to make an offer. We went back to Julie's office and she went to work..... We pulled my financials and other information to demonstrate that I was a qualified buyer and then put together a formal offer. She called the seller's agent and explained that I was only in town for a couple of days and asked if she would accept another offer. She agreed, and off it went. Done, right? Not done!! Julie called her mortgage contact and left a message that she needed him to call her asap (did I mention that this was Saturday night?). A short time later he returned her call and she put me on the phone with him. We went through my plan to finance the purchase and he said that he would have one of his associates reach out to me. By now it's after 8:00 Saturday evening. Julie has spent the entire day with me. Done, right? Not done!! As I'm driving back to my hotel, I get a call from the mortgage guy's associate. He asked a bunch of questions and about 20 minutes later my mortgage application has been initiated. The next morning we get a call from the seller's agent saying my offer has been accepted. Done right, not done!! This is Sunday morning and Julie contacts an inspector and schedules an inspection for Monday. The inspection goes well and Julie contacts an attorney she uses and we go to contract. I asked her how she is able to get this kind of response from people. She said "I just tell them that I won't work with people who don't call me back". I know this story is a bit long, but it captures all of the characteristics that set Julie apart. Knowledgeable, Committed, Connected....Urgent! Don't want to leave out caring and compassionate!!! We closed on our house two weeks ago and are ecstatic! I know we couldn't have done this without Julie's guidance and support! This is the tenth home I have purchased and I can say without hesitation that Julie is the best real estate professional I have ever worked with....Hands down!

I am an attorney who represents clients in residential real estate purchases and sales. I recently represented a client in the sale of her house in Ridgefield. Julie Setterlund was the listing agent. I had not worked with Julie prior to this sale but it quickly became apparent to me that she was exceptional. At every stage of the process, Julie was prepared, organized, and working tirelessly to make our mutual client's experience as easy as possible. When issues came up with the sale (as they always do) Julie proactively addressed the issues with all of the parties which helped not only my client but she made my job a lot easier. She did an excellent job of timely communicating with our mutual client and me at every step of the way. There have been very few real estate agents who I have worked with who I would unequivocally refer a client to. I wholeheartedly recommend Julie Setterlund to anyone looking to sell or purchase real estate.

5 Star Service! Julie helped us look for our new home. She was always ready and willing to go the extra mile - she adapted as our search area widened due to the extremely low inventory, venturing through many areas of NY. She wrote offers quickly and accurately and presented them clearly and concisely. Our circumstances changed due to a family situation and we eventually wound up in another state, but we cannot say enough about how great it was to have Julie in our corner.

Julie Setterlund was the best realtor I have ever worked with. She was very responsive, very knowledgeable, and always on top of details. She put in quite a lot of work to sell our house. She suggested fantastic contractors and always offered multiple options. If I had another house to sell in CT I would only work with her. Lastly, my real estate attorney separately mentioned to me that he had never dealt with another realtor who was so well prepared.

We are so glad that your firm recommended Julie to help us with our home purchase. We were uncertain about whether we wanted to buy a home in Connecticut or New York. Her dual license was quite helpful. We did not have to change real estate agents. Working with Julie was really pleasant. She guided us well through some tense negotiations, and supported us with several recommendations for help we needed. We are sure any of your customers would be happy to have Julie as their realtor.

We have had a great experience with Julie from day one. She was so knowledgeable, supportive and communicative during the whole process. I would (and will) recommend her to anyone looking to buy a home in this area. She is wonderful!

Julie was an absolute pleasure to work with during our recent house hunting adventure. Her patience with our crazy questions and knowledge expertise of the local markets was second to none. We toured many houses together, dealt with “unique” overbearing selling realtors, and ultimately found our next home. If you want a responsive, responsible, and honest realtor: pick Julie. Otherwise, pick some other realtor, it’s your gamble.

Julie was professional, reliable, and in constant contact. Overall she was terrific and I would recommend her to anyone looking for a new home purchase.

Was an amazing experience work with Julie, her expertise, and commitment made the entire process smooth and stress-free for us. From the initial search to the final closing, she was always there to answer our questions, provide valuable insights. Not only she helped us to find a house that meets all our criteria, but she also negotiated a great deal on our behalf. Her negotiation skills and market knowledge were instrumental in ensuring that we got the best possible outcome. We are thrilled with our new home and couldn't have done it without her. Thank you so much Julie.

An Outstanding dedicated professional. Incredibly gregarious. A true realty Savant. She is your only choice.

Julie Setterlund has a combination of smarts and caring. Whatever problem came up,she threw herself into the challenge, and tirelessly took the initiative to find a solution. Julie spent several weeks patiently meeting us at a variety of properties in Connecticut and New York. We appreciated that she has real estate licenses in both states. Julie took us through the paperwork for 4 offers. When we finally found our home, she was with us every step of the way until closing, with frequent texts, emails and phone calls. Julie was a bright spot taking us through an extremely stressful process. We would highly recommend her to anyone looking to purchase a home, and in fact already have done so.

Julie was a pleasure to work with when we bought our Ridgefield home. She is professional, very knowledgeable and happy to get involved at all levels. Julie helped immensely with the buying process but also sourced professionals during and after the purchase to make the process completely painless. Julie was available at anytime to answer questions and solve problems. I would absolutely use her again. Ridgefield's TOP realtor.

It is a delight to work with Julie. She is professional and knowledgeable about the real estate market. I look forward to working with her on many future transactions.

As a local real estate attorney with 36+ years of experience and expertise, I have found Julie to be a sharp, detail oriented, persistent and knowledgeable real estate agent.

It was a difficult decision to sell my house, and Julie was most understanding about my situation. She was not pushy or insistent, but understanding and guiding on helping me decide. Her knowledge of the current market was good. Whatever I wanted, she heard (such as not posting a For Sale sign in front of my house). She had numerous open houses and was always willing to work with me on times to show my house to perspective buyers. Once in the stage of selling, Julie worked continuously to help me down size by posting items for sale and even meeting the buyers to give them my merchandise and collect the money. She also helped with my estate sale. If you choose Julie, she will be very helpful.

Julie was probably the most professional and responsive realtor I've ever dealt with! I was so impressed with her ability to respond to e-mails and text messages and give me updates during the rental process. She is honest and a pleasure to work with!

Julie has been an exceptional realtor. I honestly think that she never sleeps as she is so responsive. Every little thing she knew the answer to, or she found it out immediately. She went above and beyond in terms of home visits, understanding the market and even getting us to see homes that were not even on the market. Her knowledge of the area is unsurpassed. But more than all of that she is a joy to work with and a wonderful counsel in the often frenetic business of buying a home in this crazy market. I would give her 10 stars if I could.
