Why Work With Us?
Here's what our satisfied customers are saying about us:
What I was looking for was somewhat out of the mainstream, and the great majority of properties for sale simply did not come close to what I had in mind. David Kennison quickly understood this and helped me to zero in on those listings that would be of most interest to me. He is a very good listener, a strong advocate, and he worked hard for me. As much as I was pleased with Dave's performance, the hours we spent together were an equally positive experience....Dave is just a good guy to spend time with, and as it turned out we spent a lot of time together until he found me the place that I purchased.

Responsive and professional are two of the best words to describe Nick. Buying (or selling) can be a nerve-racking experience. Nick was always available to answer our questions. The MLS/internet presentation of our home that Nick and his team created was absolutely beautiful!
~ seller, Newport, VT
Nick is a knowledgeable real estate broker who has a good command of pricing in the local market with a broad base of potential home buyers. That "Rolodex" of customers enabled our farm to be sold in about one month after we re-listed it with his agency. We had initially gone with another firm, but in over six months' time saw only minimal activity and received NO offers. They say timing and location are the two variables in real estate. As the daughter and granddaughter of real estate brokers (now deceased), I agree...but would add that professionalism and perseverance rank right up there. Nick has the complete package.
~ H. Caillot, Morgan, VT
Nick was quick to respond to our concerns and the dozens of showings that were immediately lined up. He knows the area incredibly well, so he knew comps and what the market was. The paperwork side was simplified by the fact that he's done this hundreds of times and is a seasoned vet. I'd let Nick sell my house again, no question.

After having recently closed a sale with Connie Isabelle, I can assure you that you'll be in good hands with her as your listing agent. She handled all the minute and fussy details inherent in any real estate transaction with grace and professionalism, was prompt, efficient and always available to answer questions, offer excellent advice, and work with the interests of the client foremost in her mind. I'd heartily recommend her.

Lyell was very accommodating in helping to find the perfect home. He went out of his way to make sure we were satisfied. He has a great personality and was extremely knowledgeable about the history of Vermont. I would recommend him to anyone looking to relocate.
~ Priscilla Pelletier
As a first time home buyer this process was a little scary. Lyell was very helpful with any questions we had and was really quick with a response! Very friendly, definitely made the home buying process less stressful! I would recommend him to family and friends for sure!
~ Brittney Lantagne & Tristan Burdick
Lyell was absolutely great to deal with and I would highly recommend him to anyone who is in the market for a new home or trying to sell their property. I greatly appreciate his diligence to his work and his friendly approach. Throughout the whole process, Lyell went above and beyond to make his knowledge of the housing market available to us whenever we had questions. Lyell definitely gets straight "A's" from me!

Making a purchase long distance (1,300 miles away) was not easy. I spoke with 4 different realtors in the process of a long internet search on properties that looked like they may be what I was looking for. At the time, Lyell seemed to be more interested in finding out what we wanted, and patiently looked at all the properties I forwarded to him, also making recommendations of his own. Finally arriving in Vermont, Lyell went out of his way to make us feel comfortable and to make sure we saw all the things we had chosen to see, even offering to set up appointments for things completely out of his area that he was not able to show himself. In a short period of time, there was a huge effort on his part to accommodate us. By that time, he knew which property would work for us (he was right). At every step of the process, Lyell worked well with us to make sure all things were happening properly and expediently. From email recommendations to finding local businesses, to the closing, he worked with us all the way. My wife and I were both thankful to have someone as helpful as he was. A great amount of effort was put into helping us. I would recommend Lyell without question and thank him for all he did for us. Thank you Lyell.
~ Thomas & Janis Strange
Lyell went above and beyond to help us find the perfect home! He was always responsive and there to answer all of our questions 24/7. Perfection, perseverance and persistence all describe how Lyell handled our home search. Once we found our perfect home, Lyell was extremely helpful in making sure the closing went smoothly and we were introduced to the key people and places of our new neighborhood. With over a dozen contact numbers in hand, anything we need is just a phone call away. We already feel like a part of the neighborhood and certainly part of the Century 21 Farm & Forest family! We highly recommend Lyell!
