Sarah is thrilled to have the opportunity to help you with your real estate needs. Two things that excite Sarah—living in her hometown, New Canaan and connecting with people. Combined, these passions led Sarah to her career in real estate and she is excited to work with you!

Sarah began her career in New York working in media advertising and marketing. Her passion for home, food and lifestyle content brought her success at HGTV, Food Network and This Old House. With a background in all things home, pitching new business, negotiating deals, and providing first-class client support, Sarah found real estate to be a natural fit when moving back to her hometown, New Canaan, CT.

When it comes to moving, Sarah has a great understanding of the stress and excitement that comes with these big changes. She had the privilege of moving her family across the US from New York City to Georgia to North Carolina to San Francisco, California and back to New Canaan, where she and her husband originally hail from. Sarah is a third-generation resident of New Canaan who loves to share the many wonderful things our community has to offer. She not only wants to help her clients buy and sell homes, but wants to help them feel at home.

Sarah graduated from Elon University with a degree in Corporate Communications and a minor in Business Administration. When not involved with full-time real estate, Sarah stays busy with her two preschool-aged children, is active in the NC Nature Center Preschool community, New Canaan Newcomers and keeping her finger on the pulse of everything this town has to offer. She is thrilled at the opportunity to meet you and introduce you to our town!

Testimonials

Sarah did a fantastic job on a difficult real estate transaction. I could not recommend Sarah Arestia more highly.

Raymond Ariola

Being a first time home buyer is stressful and Sarah was extremely knowledgeable and resourceful during the process. She is easy to work with and available at any hour of the day to talk through questions, uncertainties, and we appreciated her honest opinions. We were lucky to have her on our side through what felt like a rollercoaster, our house was sold as is and there were some challenges. Sarah provided guidance and helped negotiate some huge wins for us. She came highly referred from a family member and we would refer her over again! We could not be happier to be in our dream home and location in New Canaan. Thank you, Sarah!

Chelsea Holden

We cannot recommend Sarah more highly! She understood what we were looking for and helped us in an incredibly tough market by asking the right questions and was always happy to meet us at showings. Sarah is incredibly patient and kind, I highly recommend working with her for your real estate needs and I certainly plan to again! We're so grateful for her help getting us into our home!

Nadina C

A true professional! Sarah guided us through selling our home in New Canaan with ease. She’s a seasoned New Canaanite with an abundance of insider knowledge about the town. Paired with her partner, Christine Williams, they sold our home in March 2022 in one weekend with multiple offers above asking. Very pleased and highly recommend!

Diana Spier

Working with Sarah was a breath of fresh air. Having worked with several real estate agents up to this point - across Connecticut, New York and New Jersey - Sarah was aggressive and also open and candid during our time working with her. She was an advocate for us throughout the purchase of our dream home in New Canaan and gave us strong objective advice. Our experience with Sarah simply could not have been more seamless. Sarah was reachable at all times during our process and a great communicator - she jumped on calls at random hours, met us for home tours with little notice and gave us great local insight along the way. We initially wanted to buy in town but after Sarah showed us a property with more land and relayed her personal experience of being a mother of 2 - we felt even more confident about our selection and nearly a year later could not be more in love with our home. We are huge supporters of Sarah and excited to see her help other families looking to put down roots.
