What a pleasure to have met and then hire Jillian Klaff as she came highly recommended by our neighbors. From start to finish, Jillian's expertise, knowledge of our town, and calm demeanor made her the perfect REALTOR for us. Jillian was available and present for any questions or concerns we had during the quick turnaround time from making the decision to sell, addressing minor inspection issues, and closing within a 90-day period. We felt a true partnership and were well informed every step of the process.

Highly recommend Jillian to anyone looking to buy or sell! Her expertise, professionalism, and patience were invaluable in the toughest of markets. While working tirelessly to help us find and close on our dream home, Jillian was simultaneously selling multiple other properties, working with other buyers, and doing it all with ease; Additionally, Jillian is so well respected and well-known by her fellow brokers, and these relationships only helped us in this crazy market. She is a pleasure to spend time with, extremely knowledgeable about the area and real estate, and an asset to her clients.

Working with Jillian on our home purchase was an absolute pleasure. She was patient and had a keen understanding of the Fairfield County housing market. What impressed me most was her detailed knowledge of water systems, electrical panels, heating systems, plumbing, boilers, sewage, and the list goes on. Jillian did not rest until she knew everything in our new home was up to code and worked properly. I remember her taking notes on all of these items and making sure they were taken care of. She was very organized and kept in constant contact with us. Jillian knew how to get items done with a difficult seller, and was savvy in guiding us in a very competitive market. I cannot say enough about how much Jillian looked out for us. It is my honor to recommend her to buyers and sellers. She is amazing at her job!

My wife and I had an amazing experience with Jilian. She was kind, knowledgeable, and not pushy at all. We worked with her for over a year and saw almost 50 houses, and never once did she seem bothered or impatient. Despite looking for a home during one of the most challenging times ever, Jilian was not only able to find our dream home but was able to negotiate a price that was under-asking. We closed on the house over a month ago and Jilian continues to check in and be a resource for us as we are new to the area. We will be highly recommending her to any friends that are looking in the area!
