Testimonials

"Thank you for all your hard work, support and advice during the sale of my Dad's house. It was a difficult and emotional time for me, but you were always there for me, to ease the process and reassure me. I would definitely recommend you to others who are looking to buy or sell. You are super at what you do and anyone would be in great hands with you as their realtor! -B. Downing"

"Rose McWaid did an outstanding job selling our house and we enthusiastically recommend her! Rose not only brings experience and utmost professionalism, but she works incredibly hard. Rose's marketing approach and the advice she gave us every step of the way was excellent. She worked hard to make sure the house showed its best--which was invaluable, because we were out-of-town sellers. Rose's perseverance and continued attention helped us maintain the momentum despite a very difficult selling market. We could not have chosen a better broker to represent our house. - Cristina Schimert Lasko"

"Thank you for the diligent and professional manner which you arranged for and carried out the sale of my father's house. Since I live more than 2000 miles away, my ability to direct the details for repairs, maintenance, paperwork, etc, was very limited. However, you handled each and every issue with aplomb, keeping me informed and part of the decision process every step of the way. Your style inspired confidence and eased my mind during a tense period. The sale was both speedy and without incident. - Brian C., Manhattan Beach, CA"

"When I was looking to sell my house I interviewed several top local agents and selected Rose for her enthusiasm and thoroughness. Rose developed top-notch marketing materials that, I believe, helped present the benefits of my house very well in a highly competitive market...The bottom line is that Rose helped me get top dollar for my house. I would recommend Rose, without hesitation, to anyone seeking a competent real estate professional." - Dana Manchester

"I just want to take a moment and thank you for the exceptional service you provided in representing me for the sale of this property. From the moment we first discussed this property you were enthusiastic, offered great marketing ideas, and were timely with all your actions. During the listing period, I always felt that you were out there looking for a buyer, new ways to attract interest in the property, and following up on all possible leads. The fact that it closed in less than 60 days in this market is a testament to your hard work and abilities. I will not hesitate to refer you to my friends and associates, and be delighted to use your services for my next real estate adventures. -Mark Reeves"

"Rose was the epitome of professionalism and wonderful to work with. I am grateful to her for making our experience informative and pleasant. You are lucky to have her. -M. Weaver, Mystic"

"I would unequivocally recommend Rose McWaid. My husband and I were looking to buy a home in Old Saybrook or Essex. Rose proved herself to be knowledgeable, professional, extremely helpful, easily accessible, and all-in-all invaluable in the buying process. She negotiated with the listing agent and never pushed us into buying the house at a higher price than we thought it was worth. We were so impressed that when my mom needed to sell her house we asked Rose to list it. Selling the house was quite a feat since we were 2,000 miles away most of the year. Again, Rose went above and beyond. She staged the house, called estate dealers, helped move furniture, etc. We sold the house for a fair price, which is remarkable in today's market. We highly recommend Rose. She is smart and has the utmost integrity. - Liz and Jody Moss, Lubbock, TX and Old Saybrook, CT"

"Rose was a dual agent on my purchase of a property in Old Lyme.I found her easy to talk to and she is a good listener who will respond with helpful suggestions. She has a good understanding of the housing market and what is a value and what is not. She also gave helpful suggestions on improving the property. She can also help with suggestions on improving the appeal of what you want to sell. Later Rose was my agent on an offer to buy additional properties. The sale did not go through because the seller maintained a higher price than I thought it was worth. She did not try to convince me that it was worth the higher price. That is someone that looks out for their customer. - Mike R, Old Lyme"

"All this wouldn't have happened without your patience, expertise and negotiating skills. I cannot thank you enough!"
Liz Dolengewicz (Westbrook,CT)

Because of her effort, determination, and thoroughness, the sale of my mother's home was both quick and smooth. I was impressed with Rose's attention to detail, work ethic and professionalism....Rose can be counted on to "go the extra mile" in the service to her client, I highly recommend her." - Jon Kosloski, East Haven, CT

"I moved from Old Saybrook to Florida and left my house in Rose McWaid's hands. I was very satisfied with her service, expertise and handling of the sale. She gave good advise on preparing the house for sale and I highly recommend her as an Agent. Given a choice in the Real Estate Market I would choose her again. - Barbara Haase, Coconut Creek, FL"

"Had to sell my mom's home in Connecticut and had no idea where to go. Rose McWaid was recommended to me by a friend and I couldn't be happier. She understood that I was dealing with problem long distance and took the time and extra work to make sure it went smoothly. I know that she was going a little out of her territory to help me and I really appreciate it. I would recommend her in a heart beat. - George Piehl, Manchester, NH"

"Rose McWaid sold my (vacation) house in East Lyme in a few months despite difficult circumstances. She was extremely hard working and diligent in getting the house listed and holding several open houses and individual showings. Rose helped me manage the sale from listing to close, including the inspections and moving. She was great at staging and working difficult sale negotiations. I would recommend her without reservation. I was lucky to have her. - Lisa Colarossi, NY"

Would not go through this process with anybody else. Very "hands on" to make the experience somewhat relaxing. Kyle R, Old Lyme

Joseph A Nardone (Old Saybrook, CT)

Lisa Pellegrini (NIANTIC, CT)

"Rose McWaid was the hardest working agent that I have ever worked with. Selling a Connecticut home while living in Florida made the sale challenging, but Rose provided excellent advice for preparing the house for sale. She went way beyond my expectations and made this sale a flawless transaction."

"Our agent, Rose McWaid,is a highly professional and dedicated agent. She worked hard to sell our house by using a variety of marketing tools, open houses, lists of recommended contractors, and even meeting them at the house for me! She kept an open line of communication and provided timely suggestions and responses to calls and concerns. She was always supportive and considerate throughout the process. The company is fortunate to have her on their team, as anyone needing a realtor would be. "

"Rose McWaid was my listing agent, who went above and beyond to sell my home. Rose was always available, responsive to calls and emails, and honest about market comparisons. I truly believe that our sale was due to her constant marketing, open houses, and diligent efforts. She was a pleasure to work with, and I wholeheartedly would recommend her service to anyone looking to buy or sell a home. She was absolutely fantastic and we will be sure to hire her again! <br />"
