Our journey to finding the perfect starter home and moving out of Manhattan began about two years ago. Through Zillow, we were fortunate to be paired with Michael Jabick, and from day one, he impressed us with his dedication, expertise, and generosityaEUR"not just with his time but also with his deep knowledge of the local market. In an industry that often lacks transparency, Michael stood out by being refreshingly honest, always looking out for our best interests, and even cautioning us against potential first-time buyers remorse when necessary. He navigated the process with a great sense of humor, making the experience both informative and enjoyable. Even during the slower months when inventory was low, Michael kept in touch without ever being pushy. He was incredibly accommodating, visiting homes on our behalf when we couldnt make it out to the suburbs. No matter what, he always provided candid and thoughtful assessments. Later in our search, we had the pleasure of working with Michaels firm partner, Kim Vartuli, whose empathetic and upbeat energy made an immediate impression. She was responsive, supportive, and a true advocate for us throughout the process. When we faced the disappointment of lost offers, Michael and Kim kept our spirits high and encouraged us to stay the course. When our offer was finally accepted, the closing process turned out to be long and complex, made even more challenging by a difficult sellers agent. Michael and Kim handled every hurdle with professionalism and determination, representing us with skill and persistence. Thanks to their unwavering support, we ultimately closed on our dream home, and we couldnt be more grateful. Beyond being outstanding real estate professionals, Michael and Kim are simply wonderful people. Their guidance, patience, and commitment made all the difference, and we wholeheartedly recommend them to anyone looking to buy a home.

We first met Kim when she helped our daughter sell her Trumbull home and purchase a new home in Monroe. Kim was so warm and kind, easy to talk to and she knew so much about the market and all of the surrounding towns. We knew that when we were ready to downsize from our Redding home, Kim would be the agent we would use. We were interested in new construction and Kim worked tirelessly to help us find new developments and homes to consider. When we finally found new construction in Monroe, Kim came with us to our meetings with the builder and was so helpful with her guidance and insight. We listed our Redding home with Kim and worked closely with both she and her partner Michael. They are a wonderful team to work with - so professional, so responsive, very kind and always available to help in any way needed. They were focused on helping us to sell our home as quickly as possible, knowing we needed to sell in order to have the funds for our new home that was being built. They were willing to have an open house almost every weekend to attract the right buyer for our home and helped us with tips for staging the house. Selling a home is stressful, as is building a new home, but working with Kim (and Michael) helped make this process so much easier. We closed on our new home today and Kim was there at the final walk through; she was with us from start (when we first walked the lot last winter) to finish (as we viewed the finished home today). Kim is a wonderful person and she is wonderful at what she does -- she and Michael love their work and it shows. I would highly recommend them to family and friends who are looking for the very best realtor team!

Kim was the one constant in our home selling and home buying process that spanned a little over 2 years. And we thank God that she was on our side every day, because not only did she bring us un-paralleled knowledge and guidance on Fairfield County real estate but she also (most importantly) was ALWAYS there for us. She helped us stage our Trumbull home and had it photographed beautifully to put up for sale, and she helped us to sell it in a matter of days for over-asking price. She stayed the course with us for almost 2 years as we also searched to try and find our new forever home . She was with us for all the highs and lows, until we had the ultimate high of finally winning our dream home in Monroe. She was always so loving and genuine with us and our kids, no matter the time of day. She treated our kids like we were all family, and now we consider Kim to be a part of our family. We love you Kim! Thank you for everything you have done for us. We will never forget you! The kids still ask where "Aunt Kim" is going to sleep in our new Monroe house.

Michael and Kim were such a crucial part of our home buying journey. Looking for a house in CT that fit our parameters and needs, while living in San Francisco was not an easy task. Both of them made themselves available to us any time of day, adjusting for time differences and always going out of their way to look out for us. We were confident in trusting that they would guide us in the right direction regarding home specs, locations, market fluctuations, and the entire process from search to close, given that we didnt know much as first time home-buyers. I will forever be grateful in their role in finding us our dream home!
