Betsy is the hardest working, most trustworthy, most knowledgeable real estate agent we met during our very long home search process. As first-time home buyers, we spent months looking at online listings, speaking to agents on the phone, and visiting properties up and down the Connecticut and Rhode Island coast. After meeting Betsy, we immediately stopped working with other agents. Right away, Betsy showed herself to be deeply knowledgeable about the housing market, sharing insights on different areas and buying and selling trends. She worked hard for whoever she was representing, buyer or seller. My partner and I joked that Betsy was a force of nature with an unmatched work ethic. She would be texting us or available for a call at 10 or 11 pm, then send emails or texts with more information at five the next morning. Most importantly, though, Betsy is an absolute delight. She is a joy to work with and made the process not only manageable but enjoyable. She is the rare combination of enthusiasm and patience, keeping spirits and momentum up during an impossibly stressful time (we were first-time homebuyers, looking for a home at the height of the pandemic). Betsy not only helped us find the house of dreams. She did something harder and even more significant: she made it fun. Searching for homes After only a few minutes in the first listing we visited, Betsy pointed out 4-5 issues we missed and gave us a realistic assessment of the house's pros and cons. Over the following weeks, we visited numerous homes with her, and she did the same with each one, remaining optimistic yet objective. At all times of day, Betsy was responsive and proactive in sending us listings. Our criteria were broad, but she fully understood the "feeling" we wanted from our home and sent us listing after listing that matched expectations and then some, with her initial assessments on each. Whenever we had questions or wanted her opinion, she was able to guide us — this area had the best restaurants, this house might be in a flood zone, this kitchen might need some remodeling. Then, she gave us the space to make our decisions. When it was time to visit homes, she was always on-time, in a fantastic mood, and armed with helpful information about the house and surrounding neighborhoods. We never felt rushed, never felt "sold." Betsy—always—had our best interests in mind. Making an offer When we visited the home we ended up purchasing, Betsy was as enthusiastic as we were! She answered all our questions about the house — would this chimney be a problem? How would we improve this landscaping? We had so much fun brainstorming with her. She truly felt like she was part of the process and invested in us and our happiness. When we were ready to make an offer, she helped us identify the right price and understand the steps involved — what this paperwork means, what the timeline would be, etc. — demystifying the process and making it manageable. Betsy's recommendations Buying a home inevitably means working with numerous service providers and specialists: mortgage lenders, inspectors, lawyers, people to look at the furnace or the septic system, etc. We tend to take referrals with a grain of salt and always do our own research. But eventually, we stopped double-checking Betsy's suggestions. Every single one she provided was spot-on and the best person we could find anywhere for the job. Her recommendations were professional, knowledgeable, responsive, and, if anything, cheaper than other providers. We cannot overstate how helpful her guidance was in this respect and continues to be, especially as first-time home-buyers new to the area. We also never felt pressured to use someone she recommended, and it was clear anybody she recommended was due to decades of experience working with them across multiple homes and transactions. Betsy is an incredibly reliable and accurate read of people, and that is reflected in the people she works with, too. In essence, we grew to trust Betsy entirely. She earned that trust over time, patiently and kindly, and never did anything to lose it during the entire home buying process. If anything, she continued to gain it the longer we worked with her. Closing Betsy was there every step of the way—from getting our mortgage to signing the paperwork to getting the keys in the final walkthrough. Even during the holiday season, when things were hectic and busy before the end of the year, she was a friendly face who made a stressful time a lot less stressful. If you have questions about any of the above, my partner and I would be more than happy to answer them. If you're wondering if you should work with Betsy, don't. If you're working with another agent, we'd probably recommend you give Betsy a chance. She's that good. Zach & Annie

No one works Harder!

Betsy is an excellent realtor. She will go the extra mile to get your house sold. She is an all around great person and an outstanding realtor. I had the pleasure of working with her to sell my house last winter and there was nothing that would stop her. I am very fortunate to have found her and I would highly recommend Betsy because no one else will work harder to sell your home

Calming

I was very lucky to work with Betsy Anderson on the recent sale of my condo. I had already moved out of state from CT to TX so that in itself is stressful during a home sale. And the real estate market was not very good in CT and there were many condos for sale in my development so that added to the stress. The sale took longer than I had hoped, but that was not Betsy's doing but rather a tough tough market. Having Betsy in my corner was wonderful and very calming. She is very responsive, a delight to work with, and knows the market. I was also very grateful that she spearheaded some logistical matters for me that I could not easily take care of long distance. Would I recommend her to anyone - absolutely!!!

Best on the Shoreline

Lyne Landry

We had 3 different realtors over the course of 5 years - our house did not sell. We signed on with Betsy and within 4 weeks our house was under contract and we had a deposit down on our new house! Betsy is a fantastic advocate for her clients and very responsive. When she did not know the answer she would make it her business to find that answer - and that did not happen often as she is extremely knowledgeable about the whole process. Her sense of humor came in handy, and she was able to calm us during a couple of bumps along the road. Best realtor on the shoreline as far as I'm concerned!!

Magnificent

Gregg Bromley

Betsy Anderson was magnificent. She guided us through our entire sale. From start to finish - she was really there for us. Providing sound practical advice which not only saved us $10,000's of dollars bur also saved our sanity. The key was - her caring, attention to detail - not one little thing was forgotten, delayed or went missing. She arranged EVERYTHING from first pictures and appraisals, listings, an interim lease agreement, final P&S, inspections and closing details and documents. Throughout the process, we were 100% confident that Betsy "had our back" - and believe me- this turned out to be more necessary than you might imagine (or maybe you can imagine). We've bought and sold 6 homes - so we're not rookies ... but without a doubt Betsy (and team) is the most professional, honest, competent, knowledgeable, caring and (perhaps most importantly) effective broker I've ever worked with.

Above and Beyond

Betsy went above and beyond helping me through a "Short Sale". She also recommended very good professionals when asked. I still contact her for recommendations. I would use her again!!

Resourceful

Bought a home in 2017 in Chester Center, Chester, CT 06412. Betsy is the best realtor we have ever conducted business with. Her expertise is apparent from the moment she enters a property. Her knowledge, sense of humor and patience were most greatly appreciated. Home buying can be a very stressful time and Betsy made this Process a lot easier. She is very resourceful and has a great network of support references available. We found the perfect home!

Easy Going

Sold a Single Family home in 2017 in Guilford, CT. Betsy Anderson is a fantastic realtor! We met her years ago when we were looking around town for a new home. She was kind, easy going, and always available to take us to showings. We didn't end up buying a home at that time, but about 10 years later when we were ready to move we immediately thought of her when we wanted to sell our home. The market wasn't great and we really wanted to sell quickly. Betsy walked us through the process, helped us price the house to sell, she got a LOT of interest from prospective buyers at one big open house, and we ended up with three competing offers that were all within our price range. Selling a house can be a very stressful process but Betsy made it about as easy as it can be. She was always available to talk or to meet when we had questions, and she stayed on top of the process so that things kept moving along through the negotiations, inspections, and closing. Betsy has a lot of experience, knows the area, is a good negotiator on behalf of her client, and is a pleasure to work with. If I move again, I will definitely work with Betsy, and I would highly recommend her to friends and family.
