Kim, thank you for all you did in making my new home purchase easy, fast and hassle-free.
"Kim is the professional you need when you want to buy or sell your home. Kim is highly knowledgeable of the local market and understands what your needs are and works to reach that objective. Thru Kim's diligence, we found a home and closed in less than 30 days. Kim had all the right answers, she knew the right people and steered me in the right direction. This was my 3rd house purchase and by far the best experience ever."

Kim,
Thank you so much for helping me find my first home! Your professionalism, in-depth real estate knowledge/experience and pleasant personality made for a very enjoyable buying experience. All my questions were answered promptly and thoroughly whether by phone, email or in-person. You did a great job of explaining, in detail, the entire buying process from making the offer, negotiating the best deal (which you did) and preparing for the closing....not to mention answering more questions along the way! I am truly grateful for all your efforts.
Sincerely,
J.D. (buyer)
Selling your property in todays market is NOT easy, especially when you're living more than halfway across the country from your empty house. Kim was Everything you could want in a Listing Agent.....she provided good feedback after showings, kept me apprised of what was going on in the market, always quickly returned my calls and answered my questions, plus had an infinite amount of patience with both me and the buyer when negotiations got tough. Kim is a skilled negotiator - she even managed to get two buyers interested in my house at the same time!! If you want to sell your house (or buy one) Kim is the person to call.
Thanks for everything,
G.P. (Seller)
Kim provided phenomenal service as a result of her professionalism, expertise and enthusiasm. I knew I could count on her responding quickly to my phone calls and emails. When I had questions regarding a property Kim would always follow through to obtain the answers. In addition, she provided guidance during each step of the process. Kim was always looking out for my best interests. At each house-viewing, she would mention the important items to take note of. This was very helpful when deciding which home to make an offer on.
I would recommend Kim to anyone looking for a real estate agent, especially for first-time home buyers.
G.B. (Buyer)

Our Deepest Thanks,
Mr and Mrs B (Seller/Buyers)
Kim Gifford was our Listing Agent and she Sold our home in 1 week. Our property was Sold at our first Open House!
We had contacted Kim about 6 months prior to when we wanted to sell our house and she suggested taking pictures from 2 separate seasons so any buyers could see the pictures of how the house looked at different times of the year. That was a great suggestion and made our brochure and Visual Tour of the house look fabulous! She gave us great tips on how to present the house and she was encouraging throughout the process. She replied very promptly to my email and voicemail, and felt that she had an excellent feel for the market. She was able to guide us during the Selling Process and we greatly appreciated her help, her professionalism, her understanding and patience. We recommend Kim as a Realtor to anyone!
Yours Truly,
Julius and Madeleine (Sellers)
Dear Kim,
How do we even begin to say Thank You for all your help? With us being 1st time Home Buyers, you walked us through every little detail. You were there everytime we had a question or concern You were prompt and always got the answer we were looking for, no matter what.
The professionalism you displayed and humor really made this fun in finding just the right home for us. We really felt like we were dealing with a true friend. You knew exactly what we wanted and never gave up.
Thank you again and we would recommend your services to anyone.
Dawn and Jason (Buyers)
Dear Kim,
Our relationship started about a year ago, when my Wife and I wanted to move out of NY. We were a little nervous about moving to another state, not knowing everything there was to know about CT.
Then one afternoon we met with Kim Gifford and it was like a security blanket. Kim went out of her way to make the transition very comfortable. She provided all the info we needed, and in time found our Dream Home. When it was time to purchase that home, she was right by our side.
The best thing of all is we know that whenever we need Kim, even after buying our new house, she will be there for our family. Kim you are a great realtor and a very good friend of our famiy.
Thank you for our home,
John and Andrea H. (Buyers)
Hi Kim-
I just wanted to thank you for all you did to help me sell my house. I felt that you did a first-class job, including all the moral support and savvy tips you gave me throughout the process. I always felt sure that everything was well under control. You were always pro-active in keeping me informed about the market, in providing feedback from viewers as well as helping me to interpret the offers I received. Your experience and expertise were obvious. I was truly impressed when I saw you taking pictures of my house at lunch time, and I was watching "movies' of my house on the internet that afternoon. ("She's got a fancy camera, and she really knows how to use it!") I especially appreciated being able to get tips from you for preparing my house to be sold. Evidently you gave me good information, because - quicker than we imagined - I had several good offers even during this "difficult market"
Your attention to detail, your ability to take care of things without my worrying about them, your professionalism, and certainly your upbeat personality and pleasant smile made this whole home-selling process amazingly easy for me. I would recommend your services to anyone. And I thank you kindly.
Sincerely,
Dale R. (Seller)
In a very difficult market, Kim was able to make our house stand out against the rest with superb photography, beautiful staging and her tireless promotional efforts. She was always available to us, whether we had questions, requests, or just some extra hand-holding along the way. With the market the way it was at the time, I don't think anyone else would have been able to find us a buyer, but Kim rose to the challenge and closed the deal.
Thanks for everything!
M/M G (Sellers)
Kim,
How do I even begin to say how wonderful you were in helping us find our dream home? You went above and beyond what I ever imagined a Realtor would do. You helped us through the insanity we had with purchasing this house. What would we have ever done without you? I truly believe that if it wasn't for your help, your preserverance, your knowledge, hard work and sense of calm, we never would have gotten this house! Even at 11:00 at night I would get emails from you giving me updates on our house....you were truly amazing! I assure you in the future if and when we decide to move again, you will be the first person we will call.
Thanks for everything,
Mr. and Mrs. F (Buyers)
My Wife and I were very interested in Selling our home for a number of reasons. We started off by going with a discount real estate broker mainly influenced by their hollow promise of "top notch service for less". We quickly found out that we made a big blunder as things started out on a bad note and got worse from there. It quickly got to a point where we knew we had to make some major changes in order to sell our property. We got through our contract painfully and it felt like ages to get through.
We came to know about you when you showed our property to a potential buyer and left your business card behind. We also received a very good reference from our neighbor who highly recommended your services. Needless to say, we could not wait to get some real service!!
Right from our first meeting, it was clear to us that we had made the correct decision. Your professional service, enthusiasm, punctuality and thoroughness are to be complimented. You kept us informed every step of the way, and to us that was a big help. We will recommend your services to anyone at anytime without hesitation. It was a pleasure to have worked with you, keep up your great work. Our best wishes are with you as you go forward.
Mr. and Mrs. R (Sellers)
Our relationship started when we found Kim online...her website is Fabulous! When we talked on the telephone, we discovered that one of our co-workers had also worked with Kim for the purchase of her new home, and gave Kim rave reviews! .....We told Kim what we were looking for in a home...and she sent us New Listings that perfectly matched our criteria! Kim not only took us on tours of the homes, but tours of the towns we were interested in, since we were new to the area. She got a fast feel for what we liked, and found the Perfect Home for us! She was calm and professional throughout the entire process, which at times was stressful. We have moved into our beautiful new home that has everything we were looking for, we couldn't be happier! Thanks Kim for all of your help!
Bill and Jodi (Buyer)
Kim Gifford... you are by far the best realtor that we have ever had the pleasure of doing business with. You mastered a perfect balance between being a professional but making us at ease and comfortable. We were new to the CT market and your knowledge & expertise helped us a GREAT deal. You stayed with us throughout the entire ordeal, remaining calm, even at times when we panicked, and always being responsive to questions, etc. You are truly someone that we feel we can count on and trust to the fullest extent for your good judgement and experience. We thank you soooo much for all of your help and wish you continued success. Keep the smiles...smooches!
Michael and Genny (Buyer)
Dear Kim,
We just wanted to take this opportunity to send you our most sincere thanks for all your hard work and professionalism as our real estate agent when we were buying our new CT home.
You shared with us your knowledge of the many different towns we explored, which was extremely important as we were moving to Connecticut from out-of-state. You also took the time to be certain you understood exactly what we really were looking for, so that we could find out perfect new home. Finally, your negotiating skills on our behalf ensured that we were able to obtain the best possible deal.
We had a complete sense of trust in dealing with you, and perhaps the best endorsement we can give is that we truly felt as though we were working with a friend in our search. Please feel free to use our most enthusiastic endorsement of your abilities; we're certain that everyone who uses your services will be as delighted as we are!
Tom and JoAnn (Buyer)
Kim Gifford was a wonderful help in finding our "Dream Home". More specifically, she was a total professional: gracious, courteous, helpful, experienced, informed and more. She paid attention to detail and did everything possible to make a good and smooth closing on a deal, once we settled on a home. Kim is so nice and so pleasant to work with and kept her cool throughout the challenging process of relocating and getting the property you want.
Bryan & Tammy(Buyer)
Choosing Kim to sell our house was a good decision that we never once regretted throughout the whole process. Her market analysis was fair and comprehensive, and of all four CMA's we received, hers proved to be the most accurate. She offered us great advice on how best to show our house to it's best advantage, displaying great attention to detail. Kim is very computer savvy and the Visual Tour she produced for us was excellent. She took the time to compose attractive descriptions of each room, pointing out every focal point. Our house had a showing nearly every day. The Open House was a great success, with a large turnout bringing may from other States. This proved to us that Kim's reach was extensive and that our house was advertised well. After every showing Kim provided prompt honest feedback. When offers started coming in (within 2 weeks) Kim handled them expertly and the negotiation process went quickly and calmly. Kim keeps an upbeat attitude at all times and helps smooth out any potential problem areas between Buyer and Seller. We are happy to recommend Kim to handle the sale of your home. She is a strong professional who gets results.
John & Myra (Seller)
Your commitment to not only Selling our home, but also to my family and I made me feel so comfortable and at ease.....Whenever I had a question, which was often, you had an answer and it was always right.....You know the process inside and out and anyone can feel safe working with you, heck who can beat a realtor who knows it all!.....You have not only made buying of our Dream Home as easy as possible but also alleviated all of the stresses of Selling our current home at the same time.....You have become a friend I never want to lose.....You are a wonderful person both professionally and personally who deserves all of the successes that have come and will continue to come your way...

Peter & Denise (Seller/Buyer)
Kim,
Thank you so much for all your help selling our home. I can't believe how quickly it Sold! From the first minute it went on the market you were determined to get people in there to look at it. Your professionalism really showed with regard to those sticky situations that came up. Thank you for taking the time, while we were away, to take care of the situation. We couldn't have sold our house without you!
Also, thank you for finding us our New Home. We're moved in and getting settled. It's a wonderful neighborhood, and it's so quiet - Exactly what we wanted. You were able to get us a great price for it and we are very appreciative.
Kim, you made the very stressful event of Buying and Selling a home much easier. I know it wasn't easy at times, but you always saw the best solution and were always optimistic. Both of us are very grateful to you. Again, thanks.
Sincerely,
Nino & Jennifer (Seller/Buyer)
Kim and I began our business relationship in mid-December 2005, when I selected Kim as the agent to sell our home. Our home was put up for sale around December 17 and we accepted an Offer on February 3rd, 2006. The closing date February 17, 2006.
I would recommend Kim to anyone who is Buying or Selling a home. First of all, she is knowledgeable about the real estate market and is a true professional. Kim is extremely easy to work with, flexible, a good listener, and a great "marketer". She knows how to present your house accordingly to its best assets. Her pictures and Visual Tour made our home look like a Palace. Due to her great advertising the Open House was a success in spite of the morning snow storm. Kim responds quickly and returns phone calls promptly. I have been able to reach her at 8am and 8pm. She keeps channels of communication open by letting you know of market changes (new competition, what has sold, price reductions, etc.) Kim has made the selling process as painless as possible. Our relationship has grown to be much more than just a business one. I consider Kim a friend.
S.C. (Seller)
Kim Gifford was a Wonderful Listing Agent for our property in Bethel CT. We had a difficult listing, and Kim's Creativity and Marketing Expertise shined through in several ways:
*Numerous Open Houses - Gorgeous High Gloss Postcards to Neighbors enlisting their assistance - Beautifully detailed Brochures with catchy phrases for Buyers to take with them - Visual Tour on CD for the Buyer to view at home*
Kim's effort and caring are so genuine...she made us feel like we had been friends for years!
Thank you, Kim!
Mr. and Mrs. M (Seller/Buyer)
We worked with Kim Gifford for several months and she was always there for us: by phone, e-mail and in person, she kept in constant touch and kept us updated on the market. You really can't go wrong with Kim as your agent: she knows the area and the market, is fun and easy to work with, and truly puts tons of extra effort on her clients' behalf. We plan to use her as our agent again in the future, and very highly recommend Kim to anyone buying or selling a home.

Dear Christy, (Cendant Relocation Counselor)
We are in the process of Relocating from Raleigh, NC to Newtown CT with IBM. Kim Gifford at the Coldwell Banker office was our Real Estate Agent on the buy side in Newtown. With Kim's support, we were able to purchase a beautiful home in Newtown. It took us three seperate visits to the area looking at almost 100 different homes across 8 different towns to find the home we ultimately purchased. While the process of relocating is always challenging for all involved, Kim was the picture of professionalism and positive attitude. Thanks to her undying perserverance and optimism, we were ultimately successful after a long road through Fairfield County. Given her experience, knowledge of the area, patience, professionalism and "never-say-die" attitude, we would recommend Kim to any and all who are relocating to the Fairfield County area. Thanks.

Dear Christy, (Cendant Relocation Counselor)
I just had to send along a note to you to let you know how much we enjoyed working with Kim Gifford on our Relocation to Connecticut. She was amazing in her tirelessness and optimism. She was very patient as we looked at house after house and never once made us feel like she wanted us to just compromise so we could be done with it all. She was very professional at all times and so much fun to be with. She knew so much about the whole area and was always willing to do whatever we needed her to do and ALWAYS with a smile! The best part of all is that she made sure that we ended up with a beautiful home that we love! She made a stressful time easier with her calm and helpful attitude at all times. I will highly recommend her to everyone I come in contact with who needs a Realtor. Sincerely Yours, Mrs.E.W. (Buyer)

Dear Kim,
It's been a little over three weeks now since we've moved into our new home, and we're still getting settled in. It's all a bit overwhelming, especially for a first-time homebuyer. However, I can't begin to thank you Kim for the terrific way you helped us in our home-quest. Your patience, professionalism and warmth helped us through what otherwise would have been a dreadful experience.
Without a doubt, we never could have found the home we wanted without your expertise and assistance. You listened to what we wanted and you found it for us. You were always accessible, and more than willing to explain each step of the process until we understood.
Thanks again for all your assistance Kim. You are a credit to your profession and I would recommend you without hesitation.
Respectfully,
WRM (Buyer)
