Why Work With Us?

From our first meeting, Ingrid told us she believed in “house kismet”—that the right house would find us at the right time. She played the long game with us, never letting us settle when she knew it wasn’t right.

Our first contract ultimately fell through, and at the time, we were devastated. Looking back, we know it happened for a reason- that house was never meant to be ours, just a stepping stone leading us to the home we are in now. Ingrid believed that long before we were able to see it ourselves, and she was there to reassure us, encourage us, and keep us moving forward every step of the way. She celebrated our excitement and joy, and supported us through the sadness, frustration, and uncertainty. She believed in finding us the place where we were meant to be, even if we didn’t believe it yet.

We have been homeowners for two months now and still can’t believe we ended up in a place that is more than we ever could have ever dreamed of. We live in an absolutely stunning area, surrounded by an amazing community, in a home that checks every single one of our boxes. Everything fell into place exactly as it was supposed to and we never had to settle!

Ingrid was our rock through the entire process. She believed in us, she believed in the process, and most importantly, she believed in the idea that our home was out there waiting for us. We couldn’t be more grateful for her patience, encouragement, friendship, and unwavering belief in “house kismet.” She didn’t just help us find a house—she helped us find our home. We couldn’t imagine having gone through this journey with anyone else.

We had an excellent experience with Franz! If you want to work with someone who goes beyond the extra mile, is very professional, provides timely responses and understand your needs this is the guy. He sold our house and we received the most value we could expect. Highly recommended!

Whether you are looking to buy or sell your home, I happily recommend Samantha Ratta with Coldwell Banker Islands Realty. Samantha Intuitively seems to know what your needs are even if you don't. She is extremely hard working and treats you like you are her most important client. Any questions you might have are answered immediately with professionalism and knowledge. I am so pleased with the results she gave me and am happy to call her my realtor and friend 🧡

I worked with Madeline for close to a year before I was ready to sell. She helped us evaluate the property and to make a plan for an issue that needed to be addressed. She was knowledgeable and part of a much larger agency which could give us wider contacts and a very professional listing with a plethora of photo angles. She was immediately responsive to any communication from me. She helped deal with the town to get forms and to apply for various permits which were needed. All in all she was organized, quick to communicate, made suggestions but was never pushy. She was easy to deal with and a very nice person. She adequately predicted a quick sale and a price that made sense.

If anyone needs a Relator… buying / selling or both! Ashley Wetherby is amazing! It’s not just a job it’s a passion and she wants to help! Thank you again Ashley for everything you did to make this new chapter in our lives happen! Beyond in love & grateful for our new Slice of Paradise ❤️

Ingrid was kind, thorough, patient, and knowledgeable throughout the process of selling my home and helping me buy a condo. She worked quickly and followed through promptly. She gave respectful recommendations for negotiation and helped me make the best decisions for my situation. Overall, she made this process (which could be overwhelming and stressful in other circumstances) as smooth as it possibly could be and was really the best person for what I was looking for. I highly recommend Ingrid for anyone looking for a new home.

We had an incredible experience working with Franz. From the very beginning, he truly understood what we were looking for and didn’t just send listings—he actively kept an eye out for the right opportunity.

Thanks to his strong relationships and local knowledge, he connected us with a property that wasn’t even on the market yet—an old farmhouse right on Lake Champlain that aligned really well with what we were hoping to find. It’s the kind of opportunity we never would have found on our own.

Since we didn’t have any connections in the area, we also really appreciated Franz’s referrals throughout the closing process. Every recommendation he made was reliable and helped everything come together smoothly.

He made the entire experience seamless, communicated clearly, and was a trusted advisor every step of the way. We’re so grateful for his dedication and would highly recommend him to anyone looking for a home—especially if you want someone who goes above and beyond.

We had an outstanding experience working with Franz, Anne and Alex. They helped us get our house fully prepared for the market, created amazing videos, and took beautiful photos that really showcased our home. Throughout the process, they expertly guided us through inspections and made what could have been a stressful experience feel manageable. Coordinating two closings in one day is no small task, but they handled everything seamlessly. We truly appreciated their professionalism, attention to detail, and dedication from start to finish. Highly recommend!

Franz efficiently and seamlessly managed our home sale from start-to-finish. He and his team made everything stress fee, from setting the asking price to advising us on how to best get our home ready to market. We sold our home in just 5 days, greatly due to Franz's knowledge of our market and lakefront property. Through it all, we feel he genuinely had our backs.

When my wife and I recently made the call to move out of Vermont (and across the country), it was one of the most important and consequential decisions of our lives. It was a must that our house be sold in a timely manner, on our schedule and for our equity to be maximized. That is why we engaged Evan as our realtor. From explaining how to best price our house, getting the house ready to market, explaining the contract options, putting it on the market, discussing the offers and ultimately executing the closing - Evan and his team were always there for us through the course of events. In addition to Evan always promptly answering/returning our emails and calls to clearly explaining our options as we waded through the process, we always felt in control. Thanks Evan, Diane and I appreciate all you did for us!
