Testimonials

 

"Alan and Melissa are exceptional real estate agents. My wife and I wanted to downsize but dreaded the prospects of listing and selling our home of 17 years. Enter Alan and Melissa – terrific chemistry as a husband and wife team – they understood our objectives and concerns, understand the house  and developed a game plan. They suggested strategic decluttering of the house, restaged it with our furnishings, developed exceptional marketing and listed it all within 2 weeks. We had immediate interest and we received a full price offer in hand within the first week. They navigated the house inspection process and helped negiogate and minimize any concessions. The communications were proactive and their recommnedations and advice were strategic thoughout the entire process. My advice is to consult w Alan and Melissa and let them get you the results you are looking for - whether you are considering buying, selling or whether your agreement with your current broker is about to expire I would recommend them without reservation or hestitation – truly exceptional!"

"We received constant professionalism from The Hamiltons. We knew and trusted they would sell our home. We came full circle -we purchased the home and sold the home with Alan and Melissa. They both are exemplary and kept us proactive and ahead of the market. It is without hesitation that we would  highly recommend The Hamilton’s to our “Fairfield County friends."

Bob and Carolyn Maulucci, Fairfield Ct

"Alan and Melissa were an amazing realtor team that I would wholeheartedly recommend for anyone in the Fairfield County area.  They were efficient and extremely knowledgeable with both the purchase of our new home and, more importantly, the sale of our previous home.  They were professional, disciplined, creative and respectful throughout this process.  They never rushed us and we were still able to sell our house in less than a month AND buy the home of our dreams at the same time.  Alan's unique marketing tactics coupled with Melissa's design skills helped make our house the number 1 searched house on Zillow in the area!"

Ben and Lindsay Ingalls, Fairfield 

"Alan and Melissa Hamilton did a superb job of marketing my home and finding me a qualified buyer. This was not an easy transaction for several reasons but they were with me every step of the way and were always easy to reach and gave me excellent advise throughout the entire process. They acted on my behalf over and above what would normally be expected of any agent and I am very grateful to them both for their hard work, diligence and perseverance. Thank you both!"

Maria Aggestam, Fairfield 

"Alan Hamilton is top notch. In terms of character, he is easy to talk to. We quickly established a meaningful relationship, which is important in the home buying process. For starters, he truly cares. He wants you to be in a home that suits your wants and needs, and he also wants his clients to be making wise investments. From the getgo, Alan was listening carefully. We promptly started seeing some homes, and he had a wealth of knowledge to share about the houses, the neighborhoods, and the home values. He was quick to answer any little silly question I had, and if ever I found a house I wanted to see, he scheduled a showing ASAP. At one point I found a house online, texted Alan, and we were inside the house 45 minutes later. That, to me, is top quality service. Alan helped make the negotiation process relatively painless, despite it lingering for a few days. His experience with negotiations helped me to make difficult decisions. I was a first time home buyer and Alan helped walk me through the whole process. In the end, I feel as though I got a great price on a great home, and I owe much of that to Alan. I highly recommend him without hesitation." 

Chris Johnson, Wilton

"This was a very difficult closing that wouldn't have happened without Alan. He went above and beyond what's expected of a realtor. I'm so lucky we had him." 

Rob Russo, Southport

"They are wonderful people who live in the area and have a good eye for homes. They were patient and cared about what I wanted. We searched and searched till we found the perfect home that we love now. My children and I would recommend Alan and Melissa to find their dream home." 

Florina Merturi, Fairfield

"Alan is absolutely the best.  As an agent, he is savvy, flexible, readily available, and genuinely invested in getting you the best home possible.  Both times we've purchased a house with Alan, we've been shocked by his objectivity in steering us away from houses that we've wanted—and ones that would have been an easy sell for him—but yet financially irresponsible for our family; Alan’s practicality and sincerity in these very emotionally-charged situations stand out to me still and remind me that above being a phenomenal realtor, Alan is a phenomenal person.  

Additionally, Alan has an edge on other realtors in terms of his expertise of the industry, his highly regarded reputation among his clients and fellow Realtors, his diplomacy, his inherent kindness, not to mention his serious photography skills (I can go online and guess the houses Alan represents simply based on the exceptional quality of the pictures, which no doubt play a huge role in selling your house).

I can also reiterate what other clients have said about Alan in his going “above and beyond” expectations—he made referrals (and even appointments!) for service providers who were outstanding; furthermore, he directly facilitated our inspections, many home repairs, and acted as a tactful liaison between the many moving parts related to a purchase and sale of a home—mortgage brokers, attorneys, etc.  Alan even went to the Fairfield Town Hall multiple times on our behalf to help us get building approvals for a garage!

In our three transactions with Alan—buying two houses and selling one—we have felt consistently grateful that he was the one representing us.  I hope you choose Alan as your Realtor because in addition to the incomparable representation you will have during the journey of buying and/or selling your home, you will also feel that you have a trusted friend with you along the journey, making it fun even in its toughest moments."  

Brianna Queiros, Fairfield

We've know Alan for a number of years so, when we were looking to purchase a home it was an easy solution to reach out to him. Throughout the process, Alan was super informative and flexible with meeting out schedule needs to look at homes. He always had our best interest at hand when putting in an offer in with sellers. Once we finally decided on a home he helped smooth the process for us and answered any outstanding questions/confusion we had along the way. He was there for us from start to finish and willing to go back and ask sellers to make adjustments if anything wasn't up to our standards/expectations. We really loved working with Alan!  

The Bermonds, Newtown, CT

"Alan and Melissa made our first-time home buying process feel so easy! We found our dream home on our 2nd weekend of looking with Alan. He helped us through a competitive bid and throughout the offer and closing process, was super responsive and very helpful in the negotiation and escrow process.He and his wife are incredibly friendly and knowledgeable, never pushy, and always had our best interests at heart. I would highly recommend them! 

The Springs, Westport CT

"Alan made it possible for my family and I to not only sell our home with ease, but also find our next dream home. He fought for us on both the selling and buying of our house and always had our best interests in mind. I would highly recommend Alan as your future realtor. He is patient, knowledgeable, and always available to answer any of our questions, or show us houses day, night, week or weekend. He's the man!" Jason Queiros, Fairfield

"After putting our home on the market last year with no final sale, we were reluctant to put the house back on, thinking the timing may not be quite right. Boy were we wrong! We listed our home with Alan & Melissa after they had presented us with a wealth of market information, pricing guidance and their personal experience in listing similar homes to ours. We felt they really took the time to get to know our objectives and reasons for selling and were able to generate terrific, compelling marketing collateral to support their equally impressive knowledge of potential buyers and agents. End result- we had an offer before the 1st open house, and a full price offer a day later. They were able to negotiate a closing date that worked in our favor but more impressive was the fact they kept in constant contact- updating us on other homes for sale and market information and continuing to stay involved in a rather long period between contract and closing date. Most agents would be on to the next deal, but Alan & Melissa made us feel like we were their only client- from day 1. We look forward to the next time!…" 

The Sabrowskis, Fairfield CT

"It is because of Alan's expertise and professionalism that I was able to sell my home. His negotiation skills, which seem to be drawn from an intuitive awareness of personalities and specific circumstance, included rectitude, sophistication and integrity. In addition, after contracts and building

inspection, he provided referrals, recommendations, suggestions that enabled me to move forward from my home of 29 years with a comfort and ease that went way beyond his broker mandate -- this was appreciated more than words can describe.… " 

Kimberly Keeping, Weston CT

"Alan and Melissa helped us buy our first home two years ago. They did such a fantastic job that we enlisted their help to sell our home and purchase another. They put together a marketing package that exceeded our expectations and got our house sold fast. We recommend them to everyone we know that is planning to sell or buy." Ron Brown, Trumbull CT

Alan has a tremendous work ethic that restores old world "service" to the Real Estate community. He is consistently on point and focused in bringing together the best of all opportunities. We could not have done better! 

R. Forst, Southport

"Our home was not an easy sell as it was a contemporary and needed some work. We had several deals that felt thru at the 11th hr., however, Alan and Melissa never gave up hope and persevered until the sale and then some!" 

Kathryn S, Westport CT

"My husband and I strongly recommend Alan and Melissa Hamilton as real estate agents. The pictures Alan took for our home were by far professional quality. The way our home was showcased was unparalleled. The whole experience of selling our home went extremely smoothly because of Alan and Melissa Hamilton. They bring to the table their knowledge and experience in the field of real estate, professionalism, honesty, full dedication to each client and attention to every detail included in the transaction. They choose to be very fair and accommodating. We have had a very positive experience working with Alan and Melissa Hamilton." 

Mr and Mrs Dave, Fairfield.

"Alan and Melissa did a fantastic job helping us find the perfect home to suit our needs! The deal was rather complicated and they handled every aspect and challenge with cool heads, resourcefulness and professionalism. We can’t say enough about how thorough and responsive they were. We were in great hands every step of the way!" 

The Turners, Beach Area, Fairfield. 

"I have known both Alan and Melissa for many years....This was, however, the first real estate transaction I worked on with them....My life was changing very fast with a wedding planned and a baby on the way so finding a place to start my family was obviously a big decision. I gave Alan some details on what I was looking for and he honestly delivered the perfect match. To be fair we did look at one other property with him but we all new the house he selected was the "one". The deal was put together and closed with what appeared to be seamless execution. I have been involved in many deals and there always seemed to be a hiccup somewhere but not this time. Alan really made it easy and did all of the leg work.....we just signed on the dotted line and are now enjoying our new home and being in the service business I can definitely understand the value of a referral and both Alan and Melissa can count on us for that. Thank you both" 

Dan and Melissa L, Silvermine

"It doesn't get better than this...in terms of a realtor, or a person.
Alan was there every step of the way…he became my realtor, therapist, financial planner,and friend. I will be very honest… I am probably the most demanding client imaginable (in fact, when I originally called up Raveis,

asking for no agent in particular, I said, “I need someone who is extremely responsive and aggressive, because I’m extremely impatient, and when I find a house….I want to see it immediately!”); despite this, Alan met all of my expectations, and exceeded them. No matter when I contacted him, nights, early mornings Saturday and Sunday (and just about every Saturday for quite a few months!) he responded, making last minute appointments to fit my schedule (and my impulsiveness), and spending whole days looking at houses without every pressuring me (EVER!). I never questioned the fact that Alan had MY best interest in mind at all times, and truly and genuinely wanted to find a house that was perfect for me. I think in total, we saw about 40 HOUSES TOGETHER! Additionally, Alan guided us away from emotional decisions (particularly those that would have put us in a bad financial decision), and ultimately found us our perfect home. Need I say more!?" 

Brianna and Jason Quieros, Fairfield Beach

"Melissa and Alan Hamilton worked so hard to sell our house with multiple offers and being able to close within 30 days we where amazed how quickly and smoothly the whole process was. Would definitely recommend them." 

The Kosut Family, Westport

"Loved working with Alan and Melissa. They really helped me find exactly what I was looking for and were so supportive of my experience. Highly recommend them!!!" 

Beth Saffer, Southport CT

 

"We highly recommend Alan and Melissa Hamilton; they sold us our home in Westport. They did everything possible in order to accommodate our needs at all times. The effort, energy and commitment that they provided for our purchase went far beyond both of our expectations. We could never have believed that working with real estate agents could be so wonderful !"

We would like to take this opportunity to assure that you are in good hands. We will truly recommend them to any person we know who is in the need of buying or selling a home. We just can't even express how awesome they are. Needless to say, we were so fortunate to meet them.

Alan and Melissa, you are true professionals, and it has been an absolute pleasure to work with with you." 

The Butlers, Westport CT

  

"Alan was professional, quick to respond, very hard working and knowledgeable when it came to finding us our first home. He took the time to explain the different steps throughout the process and was patient. Our experience working with Alan was wonderful!

Ron and Lisa Brown, Trumbull CT

 

We are first-time home buyers who are new to the area. Alan was extremely helpful during our search. He has a lot of knowledge about the home buying process that he was always willing to share with us. He also demonstrated great knowledge of the area in which we were looking. Alan was very patient while we searched for the perfect house for us and he took his time to show us every house we thought we might be interested in. And now we have our perfect home! 

The McHales, Fairfield CT

 

"We would both like to thank you both for the wonderful job you did in obtaining a buyer for our home and for your diligence throughout the sales process. Your professionalism, enthusiasm and kindness were greatly appreciated.  We will recommend you with confidence to anyone looking for two truly outstanding real estate agents." 

The Prochilos, New Canaan CT

 

"We can't thank Alan enough for the type of agent that he is. He was with us every step of the way and helped us with every question and concern we had.  When looking at homes he wasn't just trying to "sell" us a house, he was trying to find us a house that was a good fit for us.  His knowledge is obviously extensive and he always gave us his concerns about any individual home.  We were incredibly fortunate to have worked with Alan and without his help are quite confident we may not be in our dream home now."

Matt and Andrea Cyr, Fairfield CT

 

"Alan and Melissa worked tirelessly to get my home in Westport sold! I had initially tried the For Sale By Owner route which did not work out so well (there's more to it than meets the eye...especially in this market!) and I was grateful when Melissa called and offered their assistance. Within a month and a half, they brought me a good offer and we closed 60 days later. Two weeks prior to closing, a storm hit the area knocking out the power in Westport....I was stuck in NY but Alan was there, switching out the back up batteries on my sump pump to keep the basement dry! Big thanks to you both....I couldn't have done it without you!"

Christian Brandonisio, Westport CT

"My gratitude to you both for all your hard work and know-how which paid off in my securing my beautiful new home! It was not an easy road, (especially with my list of criteria!) but you were always there to support and guide me and made sure my best interests were your first priority." Narumi Fukuda, Stamford CT

"As a seller in this slow real estate market, I am pleased to say that Alan and Melissa Hamilton were able to bring fast results for me!
With their expertise, enthusiasm and incredible energy, they inspire confidence and get the job done.
From listing to closing, it was a pleasure working with them!" Linda Winton, NY

"It was a real pleasure working with someone with such an extensive knowledge of Fairfield County. As first time home buyers, my wife and I were very pleased with Alan's eagerness to answer every question we had while at the same time offering candid advice to guide us in the right direction. We certainly will be using Alan again." 

"It was great working with Alan and Melissa, they really listened for what was important to me as a seller and were constantly willing to go above and beyond to get my house sold! I would gladly use their services again" John Ward, Fairfield, CT 

"One of my closest friends recommended Alan Hamilton without hesitation and now I know why. Alan uses all the resources at his disposal to insure that you find the perfect house for your needs. Every day, for the next 2 weeks, he enthusiastically helped me search not just for any house, but for the ideal house for me and my children. Alan's vast computer knowledge helped us focus our search on the best possible listings that matched my necessities. As everyone knows, in the real estate market, its the early bird that always gets the worm, and we were able to purchase our dream home having seen it immediately after it was listed on the market thanks to Alan. I highly recommend his services for those who settle for nothing but the best." Robert Sancho, Fairfield CT

"Alan Hamilton is an extremely competent Realtor that reads the clients needs correctly, not wasting time and energy. Punctual and diligent, he always followed up promptly and assertively. In fact, without his help I would not have secured the house I finally found and committed to on July 1st. He then made sure that an inspection was done very quickly since time was of the essence. He also followed up constantly with the selling broker who at times dragged her feet. In sum, Alan is very professional, knows the market, does not waste your time and is a pleasure to work with. You'd have to go far and wide to find someone better."

Steve Lehman, Fairfield CT

"Alan helped me purchase a home and his representation exceeded my expectations. I found Alan to be efficient and very easily accessible. In my situation, Alan was working for the seller. Upon contacting him and after the first walk through, I felt he was trustworthy enough to also represent me as the buyer. Alan in this situation, representing both seller and buyer, was always professional. I did not once feel uncomfortable with him representing both parties and felt he was always looking after my best interest. At closing, there were no complaints. I would highly recommend Alan to represent anyone in the sale or purchase of a home. When friends and relatives start looking to sell or buy homes in this area I am recommending Alan." 

Tara Conine, Easton, CT
