Testimonials:

"It was an absolute pleasure to work with Laurie. As our buyer’s agent, she helped us navigate a challenging market and find the home of our dreams. We are first time home buyers, yet never felt overwhelmed thanks to Laurie’s guidance. She was always responsive, knew the market well and had a great list of contacts for mortgage / legal / inspection / etc. We highly recommend Laurie!" - Brian D.

"Laurie was very dedicated and attentive to us when looking for our new home. She went above and beyond for our home search during COVID. It was an extremely challenging and competitive time to relocate and Laurie was truly a wonderful partner! She was very patient and accommodating for families looking to relocate. Because it was a long distance move she really helped us research neighborhoods and was very knowledgeable about the area. She was very professional throughout the entire process. Thank you Laurie!" – Kristin G.

"Laurie is an extremely knowledgeable, attentive, and honest real estate agent. As first-time homebuyers new to the area, Laurie made us feel like family. She showed us the best neighborhoods to live in and local cut-through streets to avoid. She helped us figure out what we wanted in a home and kept us within budget. At no point did we feel pressure to see more expensive houses or houses that did not meet all our criteria. I would highly recommend Laurie if you are planning to buy in Greenwich." – Cathy Y.

“We have worked with Laurie twice in the past three years, and it has always been a pleasure working with her. We first worked with Laurie in 2017 when we were looking to rent in Greenwich. She helped us find a house that matched our needs at the time. In 2019, when we started to look for a home to buy, we chose to work with her again. She has a great knowledge of the area and was able to help us evaluate our options in multiple cities in Fairfield County, making our search more efficient. During March 2020, even as everything shut down, she was able to continue helping us with our search. We ended up finding a place in Darien, and she went above and beyond. She helped us navigate the process—from coming up with an offer amount, going into contract, and finally the closing. When we needed recommendations for lawyers and home inspectors, she was able to help there as well; we ended up choosing a lawyer and an inspector based on her recommendations. She coordinated the timing of the inspections and even chased down our bank when there were COVID-related delays in our mortgage approval process. Throughout the process, she was extremely kind, responsive, prompt, and efficient. We would be happy to work with her again, and would not hesitate to recommend her.” - Kunal M.

"Laurie is a thoughtful, strategic thinker. She has a steady temperament throughout difficult transactions and has a good sense of relative value across the Greenwich real estate market. Her exhaustive and consistent research to uncover the proper investment properties for our portfolio has added significant value. Laurie is a professional in a community with many part-time practitioner agents. I would recommend her without reservation to represent you in your next real estate transaction." - John D.

"Laurie has been a true partner in our search for a new home. From the start when we were just "looking around" and unsure whether or not we were ready for a move to helping us find the right home in the right neighborhood, Laurie was with us at each step listening to our concerns, needs, and wants. She introduced us to the right people along the way and was never too busy to answer questions or communicate with other parties. I would recommend Laurie to anyone who is looking for a new place to call home." - Saad A.

"Laurie is the consummate professional, resourceful, friendly, and tireless in meeting her clients' needs. I had the pleasure of working with Laurie twice. The first time selling my home and the second in buying a new home. Of particular note is that my house had multiple offers and sold in two days for above asking price. Also notable: she found me an outstanding new house before it went on the market. She knew the area we were interested in, and when we did not like anything on the market, she did not give up and wait around for the next listing in the area. Instead she used her extensive network to identify what was an ideal property for us. Thank you, Laurie!" - Tony R.

"Laurie was incredibly dedicated to us and found us an amazing new home! She helped us sort through all the noise and simplified the entire process for us; I would recommend her to anyone. [She's] very professional and truly cares! Thanks, Laurie!" - Maurice I.

“Laurie did a great job helping me purchase my first home. It was a complicated transaction in trying times and she got the job done! She was great at communicating and responding quickly as well as listening to my needs and helping me find the perfect home.” - Jeff G.

“Laurie has been an absolute pleasure to work with during my search for a home in Greenwich. She really listened to me, understood my needs, and was very responsive. She was patient, flexible, respectful, and gave me excellent advice. She is very knowledgeable about the local real estate market, knew the inventory, and made me aware of appropriate listings in a timely manner. Most of all, Laurie is a kind and honest person who obviously enjoys helping people. She has been an outstanding resource before, during, and after my closing.” - Mary D.

“If you are looking for professionalism, excellence, and a seamless experience, then Laurie is your girl! We were first-time homebuyers and she was beyond accommodating and compassionate! She stops at nothing to make her clients happy and we will for sure be referring our friends to her when they need to buy or sell their house! Loved working with Laurie and can’t wait to work with her in the future!” – Nichole H.

"Using Laurie as our realtor was the smartest decision my husband and I ever made. Laurie knows the market better than anyone and her love and knowledge of the area is invaluable to both sellers and buyers. Laurie guided us seamlessly through the process of selling our home and put us at ease at every turn. Laurie wowed us with her attention to detail and her ability to go above and beyond at every turn. We couldn't recommend Laurie more!" – Lauren N.

"Our situation was unique: we’d be selling our house in CT while living in Texas. That meant we would not be there, ever. A lot needed to be done in preparation for sale: tenants moved out and the business of painting, power washing, landscaping, and much more—and it was Laurie Meyer who took ownership in our absence and steered us through this very stressful time. Having a trusted partner as well as a strategic thinker who is so entrenched in the community allowed us to not only get the right price but also made the experience enjoyable. Laurie is hands down the best agent I’ve ever worked with." - Rob N.

“I interviewed multiple agents before committing to Laurie. She was standing out from the rest by ease of communication, whether it is a phone call, messages, video calls, in-person meetings—it was all a breeze. Once committed to working with her, she exceeded my expectations and went beyond her call of duty. She proactively held multiple open houses, listed ads to various networks, etc. Ultimately she helped me close a transaction with a very finicky buyer, which I'm sure would have not gone this way if I was represented by a different agent. Highly recommended!” – Denys S.

Laurie was a pleasure to work with and extremely helpful guiding us through our first home purchase in a very difficult market. She was very knowledgeable about the area and we appreciated her upfront and honest approach throughout the process. We would highly recommend Laurie for anyone seeking a real estate agent in the area.

“We wish to thank Laurie for the extensive and detailed support she provided to us when we put our house on the market for long-term, furnished rental or sale. We were abroad for personal reasons and could not coordinate the marketing, staging, or maintenance ourselves. Laurie went above and beyond to help organize the refinishing of a number of items that needed maintenance because of our prolonged absence, including coordinating contractors and workmen, hosting open houses, and hosting agent, client, and neighbor visits. Her knowledge of the local waterfront market was invaluable to us and potential buyers, and she successfully brought in several appealing offers. Upon our return to CT, we fell in love with our home again and decided we could not let it go. She immediately found the perfect half-year tenant for us while further offers and requests were still coming in as the spring market came into full force. Thank you Laurie! You’re quite a trooper.” – Linda K

"Laurie was fantastic. She managed every phase and aspect of the sale. She examined the property before listing and made valuable suggestions that were all followed. She was highly involved with the staging and presentation, and we followed her price recommendation. Arranged beautiful photos and drone shots. She held several open houses and had the fireplaces burning and mood music. She attended every showing and looked out for the property diligently. Her expertise and efforts led to a fast sale without any price reductions. A perfect realtor and trustworthy, lovely person.” – Gwen B.
