Frank Donnantuono

Amy could not have represented us better on our recent sale. She is extremely knowledgeable about the market, thorough, and hard working. Her experience and judgment made a big difference throughout the process - from giving us great advice about how best to position our listing, to how best to respond to the offers we received. We could not be happier.

Marvin Pestcoe

Amy Kirst marketed and sold our house for us in a short time frame in summer 2021. Throughout the process, Amy was a dependable source of expertise, immense experience, and practical advice. Among other things, Amy has the benefit of a considerable local network and was able to put us in touch with local specialists when we had to do some unexpected repairs. We felt guided and supported and appreciated Amy's combination of human warmth, professionalism, and humor. It was truly a pleasure working with Amy.

David Milne and Emily Milne

Amy was instrumental in helping us finalize and purchase our home. She brought an expertise to the process that few can match. She was able to dial in on the finer details of all of the homes we visited that helped us look at the homes from a very practical perspective. She was excellent at pointing out important details like the age and quality of mechanicals, appliances and other items that could have easily been overlooked. She did an excellent job of removing the blinders from some of the houses that looked great at first glance but may have had issues shortly after purchase. She was never shy about asking for more details on items that may have been concealed at first glance by the sellers. Her honest, practical approach gave us the piece of mind that we were making the right decision on either passing on a home or ultimately purchasing the home we did. I would be hard pressed to find someone who could represent us as well as Amy did. Whenever I hear of anyone looking to buy a home I can confidently say Amy is the best in the business!

Andrew

I have worked with Amy for a number of years on multiple real estate transactions. Amy is the ultimate professional, she understands the market whether I am selling or purchasing and her attention to detail is exceptional. Being a longtime general contractor I understand and appreciate timely communication and Amy has always been excellent at keeping me informed. I would certainly give her a five star rating and strongly recommend anyone thinking of a real estate transaction to contact Amy.

Thomas Gilloran

Amy was fabulous throughout the entire process from selling to buying and all aspects of the move. She is smart, pays attention to detail and is the ultimate professional . Simply stated Amy made the transition a pleasure.
