Amanda Kennedy
Amanda was born and raised in New Jersey and after a bit of travel and living in several different places, Vermont was able to convince her to trade in her nomadic lifestyle and grow some roots.
She has a Bachelor's degree from Skidmore College and her path into real estate was preceded by careers in art sales & high-end customer service and hospitality. Amanda is an Accredited Buyer Representative (ABR) as well as a Pricing Strategy Advisor (PSA) which are only two of the many reasons you are in good hands when you work with her.
Amanda's main goal for her clients is always centered around two things: full comprehension of the process and top performance. Whether it's guiding her buyers in crafting the most competitive offer or working for her sellers to ready their home to sell quickly for top dollar, she does it with kindness, transparency, and a solid dose of humor.
Outside of real estate she enjoys talking about real estate, hiking, live music, and having conversations with her dogs as if they were humans. Her two kiddos are her greatest motivators and she credits them with her success in the Lego and Tree Fort markets in particular.
Client Reviews
• "Amanda is wonderful, she is dedicated, a hard worker, and very pleasant to work with. She is an asset to your company!"
• "Amanda is the most unexpected kind of saleswoman--easily defying all the common stereotypes of realtors. She is calm, endearing, friendly and genuine. Amanda brought her clients to visit our house (which was listed "for sale by owner"), and the following two months of working with her towards the closing date was a remarkably positive experience each step of the way.
When we faced circumstances calling for new negotiations after discovering an issue during the inspection of our home, Amanda gracefully guided both parties (sellers and buyers) to an agreement that felt fair to us both. She is a real estate gem and you'll be grateful to work with her as a buyer or a seller!
THANKS FOR BEING SMART ENOUGH TO HIRE HER!"
• "Amanda was wonderful! Great sense of humor and vast knowledge about real estate. She helped my boyfriend and I buy our home. She stood in our corner and gave honest and helpful advice when it came to negotiation. So happy we got to work with her!"
• "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 throughout 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!"
• "Working with Amanda was a delight because she has a sweet and helpful personality, but also because she very quickly pinned down our tastes. We are new to Vermont so her ability and our trust in her opinion made it pleasurable to purchase a property despite our distance."
• "It was a truly great experience working with Amanda to find and purchase our first home. She made us feel at ease with the process, and her knowledge and level of communication were top notch. I would recommend Amanda to anyone who is looking to purchase a home."
Testimonials
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.
Lauren was terrific! I would recommend her to anyone looking to buy or sell. She was very knowledgeable and supportive as well. We appreciate all of her help in getting our home sold.Great work ??

We had the fortune of working with Rich on the original purchase of our condo and the sale. Rich is extremely knowledgeable, approachable and responsive. He takes the time to gain a genuine understanding of his clients wants and needs and truly has their best interests at heart. He also has a great team behind the scenes. We would definitely recommend him for any realtor needs!
Allison was our main contact during our sale. She was very good at keeping us informed and worked diligently to answer questions and concerns. She was very pleasant to work with and was always looking out for our best interests!
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.
