About Gillian Avin

"I loved Gillian! She stuck with us when we thought we couldn't find what we wanted. She's always on the look out and understands what your needs are. The best part is, she's a great person! She will be your friend. She's incredibly knowledgeable about every aspect of home-owning, and is a great trouble-shooter. I highly recommend Gillian!"
Mimi C (Niantic)

"Gillian is one of the most knowledgeable and understanding agents I have ever worked with. She always took the time to explain each step of the process and lead us in the right direction. This was the our first house we have ever bought and sold, after being here 15 years Gillian walked us through the house and let us know where our money was smart to spend in getting the house ready for market. She always responded to text, emails and calls with little to no delays, no matter the day or time. If you want your house sold, for a good price, by someone who legitimately has your best interest at heart; chose Gillian Avin!"
Mike U (Plainfield)

"You won't find a better agent! Gillian easily walked us through selling our home. She quickly answered all our questions and concerns and was on top of all aspects of the sale! The sheer amount of time she poured into us tells of her care and commitment to her clients. We are truly grateful to have had her as our agent!"
Jessica (Plainfield)

"After interviewing several realtors, we chose Gillian Avin. She walked in with a smile prepared and professional. Little did I know then that it was the best decision I could have made during the stressful process of selling your home. When Gillian showed the property we came home to find the house locked and secure. She walked us through each phase of the process and took the time to explain things along the way. She negotiated a fair price and helped us to remedy what we needed to during the inspection process. Next came the appraisal report that was $8000 lower than our negotiated price, which shocked us both. She took the time to go through the appraisal report and found errors that brought our price back to the original amount settled. Gillian was professional and personable throughout the sale of our home. She had to do a bit of hand holding when we were stressed out, thoroughly explaining and assuring us. I would highly recommend her and am so grateful we chose her."
Sherry & Diane (Niantic)

"Gillian is fantastic. She was super organized and her expertise helped the already stressful process of buying a house along with our move one less thing to worry about."
Derek K (Mystic)

"When you take on the challenge of looking to purchase your first home, it can be a life-changing and stressful experience. Gillian was able to make the process as easy as possible with her knowledge and enthusiastic attitude! As I plan on staying in the area for awhile, I will never consider looking for another realtor because I already have the best! I highly recommend her to anyone looking as a first time buyer or just ready for something different!"
Seth F (Salem)

"
Gillian took all expectations we had in a realtor and raised the bar to the next level. From the first day we met to the day of our closing she made it seem that we were always the priority. Whether it was late night house walk through's or early morning weekend showings she was always early and ready to go to work for us! Her pure tenacity, showed every step of the way and we can not thank her enough. There are certainly not enough words that can truly describe our experience with Gillian and the entire William Raveis Real Estate team."
Erik & Sherri (Gales Ferry)

"My husband and I just bought a home with Gillian's help. She was fantastic to work with. She was always easy to contact and ready to answer my many, many questions. (Seriously...I called her a lot) She made the whole home buying process easy and quick. With her guidance, we were able to make decisions with confidence. I would highly recommend Gillian. She works well with others and takes the stress out of searching for the perfect home. Thanks again Gillian!!!"
Paul & Jen F (Gales Ferry)

"Gillian was the absolute best. She was professional on one hand but felt like a friend on the other. She was always there giving you feedback and trying to get your the best deal. She never made you feel awkward asking weird questions or things you thought were not possible. We would highly recommend her to anyone."
Scott & Leslie H (Ledyard)

"Gillian was extremely professional and went above and beyond to help us both selling and buying our new home. Her knowledge about the industry exceeds most, especially dealing with military families and relocations. She is always at a phone calls reach and is very prompt in returning questions and other needs you might have. Our family could have not gotten through this process if it was not for her.
"
Dave (East lyme)

"Gillian was AMAZING! We had very aggressive and time sensitive requests and she went above and beyond to assist in meeting those requests. She was very supportive and responsive and answered our millions of questions. She provided positive, honest feedback about each property she showed us and was literally with us every step of the way. I am so thankful that someone referred us to her and she was able to assist us in finding our forever home after 28 years of military service."
Jill & Rick (Marlborough)

"Gillian made the sale of our home seamless. She communicated with us clearly, of all expectations along with including us in all aspects of the sale. She was a pleasure to work with and we highly recommend her to help you sell your home."
Shannon & Rory (Waterford)

"Gillian was a pleasure to work with. She showed us numerous houses and was very flexible with our work schedules and squeezing us in last minute to properties we were interested in seeing. She always came prepared with comps of other properties to make certain we had knowledge of the housing market. We are closing on our first home this Friday! We would definitely recommend her to our family and friends."
Amanda & Kyle (Waterford)

"I highly recommend Gillian: She is honest and conscientious and highly energetic. She has excellent marketing skills and got me a VERY fair price for my house. If you are looking for an agent that you can trust, I advise you to sign with Gillian."

Dave & Jocelynn (Niantic)

"This past summer we worked with Gillian Lambert to purchase a pre-foreclosure short sale. Everyone knows purchasing a home is extremely stressful, especially purchasing a short sale. I highly recommend Gillian to anyone looking to sell or purchase a home. Not only is Gillian extremely knowledgeable and works diligently to get the job done, she works as equally hard in caring for her clients. Gillian took it upon herself to make sure we were informed every step of the way. She went the extra mile every time we needed information or an update. I simply can't recommend Gillian enough. Not only will we have a life-long real estate agent with Gillian, we also have a life-long friend. She's the best!"
Megan & John (Ledyard)

"I was new to the process of looking for a home and going through the financial process. I emailed Gillian and that same day I had a response and she was ready to jump start the process. She helped me by providing a list of lenders as I didn't know where to look for that either. Once the house shopping began, Gillian was awesome! She knew what my budget was, what my needs and wants were and a few houses later I found my home!! She stayed on top of everything, kept in close contact with me and truly went above and beyond! She also helped friends of mine find their first home too! I highly recommend Gillian, especially if this is your first time buying a home. It all seems so overwhelming, but when you have a great Realtor, the process is that much easier!"
Valerie (East Lyme)

"In August 2012, my husband Paul and I had the pleasure of connecting with Gillian Lambert. We were looking for a house to purchase for our son and required very specific details to meet our needs. Gillian went above and beyond in selecting homes for us to consider. Once we found the home we wanted, Gillian handled all the documentation and contacts which were required to close expeditiously. She was very assertive and on top of every move. During this time Gillian became a friend to us. It was such a pleasure to have a Realtor that was caring and making sure all our needs were met. Whenever we need to attain a realtor in the future it will be Gillian Lambert and I have and will continue to recommend her to others."
Paul & Kristina (Waterford)

"We worked with Gillian for over a year searching for the perfect house. Gillian always gave professional and sound advice. She had a keen eye for what we wanted. She was always willing to show houses, even on a short notice. We valued her walk-throughs and evaluations. She was readily able to help clarify what potential houses had or did not have. Gillian has a way of assessing current housing situations and projecting future property value. Our experience was personable and enjoyable. We finally found the house of our dreams, and it was an exciting experience. Gillian kept us on track and was great about reminding us of important things and deadlines. She walked side by side with us through each step. Such an amazing real estate agent! As a local, she knows her area and what fits with families' needs. I would recommend her to anyone looking for real estate. She knows her stuff!"
Rebecca & Gerald (East Lyme)

Gillian helped navigate us through the ups and downs of finding and buying our "perfect house". More than once she talked us off the ledge, providing her dispassionate expertise in helping us avoid money pits. When, after literally showing us scores of houses, we finally found our future home, she was the steady presence standing with us while the lawyers exchanged golfing tips. I highly recommend her to anyone who wants an honest, knowledgeable, and hard working agent.
Carl (Waterford)

"My boyfriend and I recently used one of your realtors to help us find an apartment. Gillian Lambert was our Realtor. She was FANTASTIC. She was with us every step of the way, updating us with every detail. She was very friendly and has a great personality. We hope to reach out to Gillian again when we look to purchase a house. She is a great person to work with."
Nicole & Clinton (Norwich)

"My partner and I want to bring to your attention the care, attention, and general professionalism on the part of Gillian Lambert in the handling of our property in Niantic. From the first day two years ago, when she handled the rental of said property, to the final sale a few days ago, we were impressed with her going the extra mile to ensure the success of this sale. I have met many brokers in my years and know the difference when I meet a dedicated one."
HV Enterprises, LLC (Niantic)

"Gillian helped us find a house this summer and we closed in September. She was very thorough in making sure we were getting everything done needed to be ready for closing. She really did go above and beyond what would be expected which was great for first time home buyers."
Jennifer L (Waterford)

The experience of buying our first home was a foreign concept to us before this whole process begin, but thanks to you, I feel like we got through it like seasoned veterans. This home we found is everything and more, than we ever could have hoped for. We always thought a "fixer upper" was the route we wanted to go, but the more we looked into our finances and time available (or lack-there-of), the more we discovered that a "move-in-ready" was a better option. Every step of the way, from that first weekend of drive-by's to the move in process, you were there for guidance and help wherever it was needed. I can't thank you enough for your knowledge, coordination, and accessibility! It was that last one that really set your services over the top. With long work hours for both my wife and I, contacting normal businesses was very difficult. You made that frustrating time a minimum through your willingness to help with coordination and response to texts, phone calls, or emails any time day or night. It was a great experience in all, and if we ever need your services in the future, you'd better believe we will give you a call. Again, Thanks again!

"I have nothing but positive things to say about Gillian! The experience as a whole was pleasant and she was very accommodating with my hectic schedule. She managed to help me find the perfect home, that blew away my expectations going in, by recommending others aside from what I wanted to view. It was one of those, that I eventually purchased. She answered all of my many questions and if she didn't know the answer, she returned with it expeditiously. She is also very knowledgeable about the surrounding area, so any questions about schools, restaurants, things to do, etc, she had good information! She is also very accessible and returns emails and calls/text quickly. Highly recommended!
"
Everette & Amanda (East Lyme)

"You'll never find a better agent than Gillian Lambert! Extremely knowledgeable about every piece of the home buying experience, including regional availability and requirements. Very helpful in explanation and coordination of the same, and Beyond Available any time day or night! We started working with Gillian on recommendation from a friend, and couldn't be more satisfied with her performance and the outcome we had.
HIGHLY RECOMMEND for any and all real estate needs!!!
