I recently had the pleasure of working with Sharon and Kevin Kennedy of Kennedy Real Estate Solutions of Old Saybrook. In these crazy times Kevin and Sharon listed my home with ease and sold it in just two days! They were always confident, professional and very kind. They were always considerate of my feelings and cared about my thoughts. It did make a positive difference having their team on my side during such a stressful undertaking.

Kevin Kennedy at Kennedy Real Estate Solutions made my first-time home buying experience absolutely perfect. Kevin is a very knowledgeable real estate broker who took the time to walk me through every part of the home buying process and answer every little question I had. I  could rely on Kevin to answer or return my call at any time of day within minutes.  I was especially impressed when Kevin took the time to go through every section of the contract for my first offer on a home. He must have spent 45 minutes reading it through with me over the phone in the evening after dinner time. With Kevin as my broker, I knew I was going to be represented fully and I trusted that my best interest would always be top priority. Kevin connected me with a team of people that made my home buying process seamless. It was very relieving that I did not have to go through the hassle of finding the best lawyer, mortgage loan officer, home inspector, etc. Kevin, along with all of the people he connected me with, were all very kind, conscientious, and extremely helpful. Kevin goes above and beyond to ensure that you will find your dream home with the confidence that you will be taken care of. Thank you for everything, Kevin!

Kevin makes you feel like he is working only for you. He communicates every step of the way and keeps you informed throughout the home-buying process. We appreciated the local knowledge and, more importantly, the advice and opinions while we searched available homes. Kevin is a professional through and through and helps you make the best decision for you and your family.

I met Kevin at an open house a few years ago. Over a weekend, I had been to several open houses listed by various brokers. Kevin was the ONLY realtor who followed up with me. I wasn't ready to purchase at the time, so over the course of a year, Kevin would check in and let me know if anything interesting came on the market. Once I was ready to buy, Kevin new exactly what I was looking for – even better than I knew it myself. I had become discouraged with the options available in my price range, as was about to stop looking, but Kevin strongly encouraged me to look at a house that I didn't think was worth visiting. I am so thankful that I listened to his advice. Kevin found me the perfect house, and I couldn't be happier.

I couldn't have had a better experience selling my house than with the help of Kevin and Sharon. Their suggestions were helpful and appropriate and they were knowledgeable about the entire process. I was kept up to date regarding showings and feedback was received on a weekly basis. They were very responsive when I had questions. I would gladly recommend them based on my positive experience.

We want to thank you for everything you both did for us to make selling our Old Saybrook home a smooth transition. As you know, we love Old Saybrook, and Diane had a particularly difficult time leaving our wonderful neighborhood. You both understood our needs and worked tirelessly to make us comfortable with the selling process, clients visiting our home, and the closing procedure. We had researched prospective Realtors to handle the sale of our home, and we decided to contact Sharon and Kevin because they had negotiated a sale of one of our neighbor's homes. They spoke so highly of Kennedy Solutions, we just had to call. This was our lucky day!! Sharon and Kevin could not have been more gracious, professional, and knowledgeable. We felt the Kennedys’ gave us excellent advice about showing our home and listing it at a price point with which we were comfortable. We felt the process was about us and not their financial gain. Words cannot express our gratitude to Sharon and Kevin for their professional partnership with us in selling our home. Thank you!!

Diane and Jerry Nania

We initially tried to sell our home using a part-time realtor, with no success. When we got serious, we researched success rates and found the Kennedy's to be among the best in our area.Our house was not an easy sell: one of the largest in the neighborhood, and uniquely suited to a large family. Sharon and Kevin gave us the right advice about how to list, show, and negotiate the eventual sale.We always felt we were getting professional advice, acting in partnership with the Kennedy's to find the right offer and closing the deal. Thanks again Sharon and Kevin!

Working with Sharon & Kevin Kennedy proved to be one of the best decisions we could have made. They represented us in two transactions, the sale of our family home of 18 years and the purchase of a "fixer upper” that we had our eyes on. Their professionalism, knowledge, level of attention, and sensitivity proved to make a particularly complex series of transactions run virtually seamlessly. We always felt that they had our best interest at heart. They are acutely aware of the local market and extremely sensitive to the needs of their customers. We would highly recommend this wonderful and professional team.

My husband and I had been considering selling our house in Essex and looking for a home with no stairs. In the past few months, we saw several houses listed in the nearby area which looked like they might work better for us at this time in our lives. We decided to discuss options with a realtor and assess whether it was time to make a move. We wanted to use a small independent agent and my husband had recently watched a video made by Kennedy Real Estate Solutions regarding relocation options as one aged. My husband also did some research and found that Kennedy Real Estate Solutions’ number of sales surpassed the average of sales of other realtors. Sharon and Kevin Kennedy came to our home fully prepared with market analysis and numbers. We liked their professionalism and honesty in telling us that finding a ranch house for us would be possible, but only if we were flexible as to location. We looked at several possible homes and decided to move forward with listing our home. The short story is that we accepted an above-list price offer within 48 hours. Within 3 days after that we made an accepted offer on a ranch home in a nearby community which met our needs. Throughout the buy and sell processed Kevin was with us 100%. He was always accessible and responsive, and we felt that he had our best interest at all times. Based on our experience, we would recommend Kennedy Real Estate Solutions to anyone looking to buy or sell property in this market.

Kevin and Sharon Kennedy are real estate rock stars! From our initial sit down to the final sale, they walked us through every step, explained each option, and helped us maneuver our sale. The Kennedy’s attention to detail made sure we had limited surprises. Their unflappable demeaners helped both myself and my husband remain calm to make clear decisions along the way. They presented us with options based on their years of experience, along with the most likely outcome to prevail. Their service was over the top. It even extended to meeting contractors and building inspectors when we couldn’t to make sure certain deadlines before closing were met. I would recommend Kevin and Sharon to anyone looking for a calm, detailed oriented team who put their customers first. We look forward to going through the buyer experience with The Kennedy too!"

 We have been a clients of  Kennedy Real Estate Solutions for more than 15 years. Kevin & Sharon have helped us buy and sell a total of 6 properties. Kevin ‘s research and due diligence has helped us both purchase at the right price and set realistic pricing expectations for properties we were selling. On one of our deals Kevin was the only Realtor who agreed with our pricing on the property, which turned out to be accurate, and allowed us to close the deal $156,000 over what any other agent said was possible. The personal service, knowledge of the market and thorough promotion of each property makes the difference. Kennedy Real Estate Solutions goes way beyond the simple process of listing a property, they create a strategy for each property and then actively market it to achieve the client’s goals.

Dear Kevin and Sharon,

 

I am writing to you with deep gratitude for all your help to sell our home of 36 years and to buy a one-floor living condo. You were there for us 24/7 to help guide us through every hill and valley with your expertise and patience.

 

We felt reassured with your recommendations to ease the process of buying and selling in this crazy market. We highly recommend you to potential clients. You both are truly dedicated and we felt like we were your only clients.

Kevin and Sharon Kennedy of Kennedy Real Estate Solutions helped me sell our family home after my Mother's death. Needless to say, this was a difficult and stressful time, compounded by my living 400+ miles away. The Kennedy's provided excellent service throughout the process. They helped me with the listing and all its paperwork and were realistic in their opinion of the property's value, so I had no false expectations. They guided me through the offer and acceptance process, helped find local trades people to make required repairs, and did a fantastic job keeping someone so far away informed on the progress being made and what needed to be done next. On a personal level, I so admire the Kennedy's high level of personal honesty and integrity. They really did live up to their company's name. Solutions are what they provided throughout the entire process, I would highly and enthusiastically recommend them to anyone seeking a realtor in the shoreline area. I can't thank them enough for their help.

My wife and I recently retired and were interested in moving from New Jersey to an area that was somewhat equidistant from our families in Boston and New York. We started looking in the Old Saybrook, Madison, and Guilford areas, and our search continued for a year and a half. Kevin Kennedy was our agent throughout the process, and displayed great patience, stating that his only goal was for us to be happy with our purchase. When we sold our home in New Jersey and hadn't yet found a house in Connecticut, Kevin facilitated our move to a furnished rental property while we continued our search. Kevin also referred us to a local moving and storage company, where we stored our belongings while in the rental property. The movers were very helpful and easy to work with. We are now settled in a house in Madison, which we are very happy with, and are grateful to Kevin for the smooth purchase and all his help in our process of establishing ourselves in a new community. This included his recommendation of a number of proven vendors that have worked out very well for us. We owe Kevin a debt of gratitude as we start a new chapter in our lives, and recommend him without reservation to future house hunters.

I would like to say that it was a pleasure working with Kevin and Sharon to sell my house in this rather frustrating housing market. They suggested and pushed but never prodded and were sympathetic to my views. They were always available and prompt with solutions to the few issues that came up. It was a good experience working with both of Sharon and Kevin and I would be happy to recommend you. Thanks!

When I decided to sell my nice little home by the creek, I realized would need help! A friend told me about Sharon and Kevin, and their help in the sale of his parents home. Just what I needed. People who cared, and who really worked at their job , and even seemed to love doing it. ! It all went well, and I can look back on a happy relationship with the Kennedys' and a good experience.

Kevin Kennedy was recommended to me by a friend at work that had nothing but good things to say about him. Because of the raving from my friend I decided to give Kevin a call when I decided I wanted to buy my first home. Kevin was there through every step and every bump. He answered all questions clearly and quickly, and was available via phone and/or email 7 days a week! He is an amazingly patient person (believe me, I tested it many times) who just wants you to be happy and comfortable in a new home. He is a great Realtor and he makes you feel like you are his only client. I recommend him to anyone looking for a new place to live! Renting or buying. Condo or house. Doesn’t matter! He will take great care of you!
