Cameron was wonderful to work with during the process of selling my home. He did an outstanding job promoting my home on social media platforms. If you are considering selling your home I would highly recommend contacting Cameron!

Our paths crossed Nikk's when we were working with another broker to find a second home to buy upstate. We
had confined our search to Columbia County because we had friends who lived there and because it was two
hours away from NYC, our absolute limit in terms ...
We couldnt have hoped for a better broker than Nikki. Since this was our first
time looking for a second home, we took a long time before we were serious
about buying. Nikki was really patient with us, keeping in touch over several
years before we were ...
We loved working with Nikki. She understood exactly what we were
looking for, showed us properties that met our criteria, in the areas
where we were focused and within our budget. We closed on a terrific
property earlier this year and couldn't be happier.
We hold Nikki in very high regard!

Victoria represented us both on the sale of our house in Lenox and the purchase of our new home in Pittsfield. She was responsible, knowledgeable, helpful and, in general, had our back. We couldn't ask for a better Realtor.
I want to recommend Scott Sawyer as an A+ Real Estate Agent. My house was listed by Scott on Realtor.com early April, 2016; and the first people to look at it put in a full price offer. There were several difficulties with the property that needed to be addressed. These ...
Nancy,
As we transition into this next chapter in our lives, we’ll always have fond memories of these past 18 months, full of excitement, filled with fun as we learned while exploring Columbia and Northern Dutchess Counties with you. Thanks to you for making our dream a reality.
H&M, buyers

I would highly recommend using Suzanne as your broker. She was very easy to get along with and very knowledgeable of the market. She sold our house very quickly in what appeared to be a very slow time for sales.
Working with Suzanne was an absolute pleasure. She is, by far, the best broker/agent I have worked with during almost 25 years of purchasing homes in multiple states.

We tried to sell our home for years with several different agencies. A friend referred us to Elisha and she was very responsive right from the start and shortly thereafter we had a contract in hand! I would recommend Elisha Poirier to anyone looking to buy or sell a house ...
We were first time home buyers with lots of questions and concerns. Some may have called us high maintenance! Not Elisha, she was quick and attentive to our needs. She took time to explain the buying process in ways that made sense to us. We never feared missing a step ...
I made the insane decision to move to a rural town. I couldn't even locate in a map and buy a house from 1840 and its adjoining business. Elisha was my guardian angel and fairy godmother during the process. It could not have gone smoother and in fact I think ...
