Testimonials
Allison was assisting our listing agent with the sale of our home. She was very responsive and knowledgeable with any questions or concerns we had. She also provided timely feedback for showings and open houses. We would highly suggest using Allison with your buying or selling needs.
Sold a Single Family home in 2018 in Underhill, VT.
It was an absolute pleasure working with Amanda! This was the second house that I have purchased, but the first in many years. Amanda was responsive and a true advocate for me the whole process. She even came to the closing, not because she had to, but because she wanted to be a part of the process. If you are looking for a knowledge realtor, a wonderful person to work with, please ask for Amanda. —Matt

Mikail Stein is one of the premier real estate agents in Chittenden County. His knowledge and passion for the industry set him aside from his peers. Mikail helped my wife and I purchase our first property together, and we couldn’t have asked for a better agent. Mikail knew just the right amount to encourage us, while offering honest, and valuable input. He navigated us through the buying process from start to finish- while we looked at a variety of options to determine the best fit for us. He was incredibly patient with us, but was always eager to show us the next property. What began as a professional relationship grew into a personal friendship, and we look forward to working with Mikail again in our next purchase/sale.— Joe
Testimonial for The Gardner Group – Mikail Stein
“My husband and I just had a very positive experience with the selling our home and downsizing to a condominium in a nearby community. The thought of leaving our house, although it had outgrown our needs, with our children having moved onto their own lives, was an emotionally difficult decision. As well, we had been removed from the real estate market for close to 20 years. The thought of moving – listing our home, deciding on a reasonable asking price, having open houses, packing and starting again in a new community – it was quite overwhelming! The process went amazingly smoothly with the assistance of one of the REALTORS® from The Gardner Group at RE/MAX North Professionals. Lauren Gaffney Cohen, our REALTOR®, was there for us, every step of the way. She provided us with advice, patience, and support as she navigated the waters of selling, packing and relocating. Not only was she instrumental in the marketing and successful sale of our home, but she was also the facilitator in purchasing a new build. She was very helpful and creative as we pondered alterations to the original floor plan of our new home. One of the things I liked best about working with Lauren was her timeliness in responding to our questions. If she did not know an answer at first, she promptly would find out the answer, and respond to us. She did a great job, explaining the sequence of the sale and the rationale behind the steps. I highly recommend working with Lauren, and The Gardner Group team at RE/MAX North Professionals.”

Working with Lauren and her team was a dream. We were working through the difficulties of purchasing a home from afar, and Lauren ensured we received prompt and friendly attention for every step of the process, she truly didn’t miss a beat. It made us feel as if we were present for the process despite not being there. I’ve been through many home buying/real estate transactions. My experience with Lauren is what I’d call the gold standard of customer care. She is extremely knowledgeable of her area, well versed in the details of her market, well connected to partners in the community, and always prompt to respond. I have, without hesitation, recommended her to several friends and she has provided the same outstanding experience to them as well.

Our experience with Rich Gardner and his team was terrific from the first point of contact through our closing. We filled out an online inquiry and had a call within 15 minutes. Rich came to our house for the consultation and, refreshingly, was the only broker who visited who had not already decided what our home was worth. He brought no “comps” with him—just wanted to see the house and what it had going for, and against it. The three other brokers we had in to compete for our business brought sales plans and comps with them and had already decided where in the real estate pecking order our house fell. After spending 90 minutes learning our house, asking detailed questions and describing his process, he scheduled a meeting with us for a few days later (this was over a major holiday so likely would have been sooner) in which we visited him at his office and he presented his plan for how best to sell our house and position it price-wise. It is important to note that we were selling our house in an “off” time—right after the new year—and were worried about traffic and interest. Honestly, Rich’s suggested list price was higher than the other three brokers and by quite a bit. We were worried that our house would languish on the market and we would have to cut the price. We laughed with Rich that he had to convince us to list our price higher since I am sure that his arguments with potential sellers is the opposite. Rich assured us that our list price was do-able and backed it up by showing us apples-to-apples comparisons of homes in our area that had sold. Everyone on Rich’s team, especially Allison and Rebecca, were terrific to work with. Every time we had a question, someone was there to answer it. The follow through/follow up was amazing. The pictures of our house were beautiful. Now for the best part, our house sold the day it went on the market for more than the asking price with another offer as a back-up on the same day. Clearly that doesn’t always happen, but even selling a home in an off time of the cycle, Rich knew what he was doing. Our closing went well (we were dealing with terrific buyers and they had a great agent, as well) and was smooth with no big surprises. Rich has integrity and his team will earn your respect. We highly recommend Rich and the Gardner Group

I worked with Matt earlier this year and he was AWESOME – superior knowledge of the local area, buying process, and all things technical. He was always able to accommodate our schedule and was always very prompt and responsive. Matt is not only a great realtor, but an all-around nice guy. It was a pleasure working with Matt and I would not hesitate to recommend him.— Cody

“I want to thank Charlotte for all you did for us in the successful selling of our home. I don’t know how we would have done it without you! You went way out of your way to handle all the extra details, no one else would have considered it, but you thought of and accomplished everything. Thank you Charlotte Gardner!
Forever grateful to CharlotteWilliston, Vt
I have worked with Jay twice and the Gardner Group as a whole five times for purchases and/or sales of property over 10 years. I could not make a higher recommendation for a greater group of folks. Jay responded almost immediately to every inquiry I posed. Their team is not only hard working and professional, but make you feel comfortable throughout the process, and take the stress that comes along with purchase/sale to as low as it can be. Thanks for everything! — Mike
