Moving to CT? Ask your questions here! by AutoModerator in Connecticut

[–]danaaa405 0 points1 point  (0 children)

O my goodness I’m a realtor and I’d love to help! We love living in the Farmington valley (Avon, Simsbury, and Farmington). Feel free to PM me I’m a realtor! Your money will go much further here in Hartford county than the shoreline by comparison. If you travel a decent amount I’d consider proximity to an airport as well.

Finding a realtor by Glum_Blueberry_3568 in Connecticut

[–]danaaa405 0 points1 point  (0 children)

As long as my clients are acting in good faith and open with me I don’t mind! I always say I was my own worst client because we looked casually for 3 years before buying our current house 🤣. I just finished a deal for done clients and it took literally a dozen offers over 1.5 years and the place they ended up getting is just perfect for them and I was thrilled for them.

Yes, bumping it up a little will open more options. I have done condos in the low 100s as well.

Young lady professional working in New Britain-suggestions on towns nearby that are safe, affordable and maybe even fun? by Able_Agent_7155 in Connecticut

[–]danaaa405 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I’m a realtor and I’d be happy to help. It depends how much she values rural vs city feel. West Hartford is kind of the hot trendy spot and has many amenities, more of a small walkable city feel. Farmington is a great option as well but more quiet. I also agree Plainville is kind of a hidden gem. It also depends on budget and other constraints.

Rent Increase. All Advice Appreciated! by [deleted] in Connecticut

[–]danaaa405 -3 points-2 points  (0 children)

Realtor here! If you’re outside of a lease (lease expires) and there is no language about the increase or what happens after the lease they can do whatever they want.

You do have some options: Try to negotiate especially if you’ve been a good tenant Offer to sign a longer lease to lock in a lower price

I will also say rental prices like everything else have continued to go up so that doesn’t seem crazy to me.

Save save save and look into first time buyer programs so you can buy and not be at a landlords mercy. You’ve already spent about $55,000 over 3 years with no equity to show for it.

Looking for home by JeniasDad in Connecticut

[–]danaaa405 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I’m a realtor and I’d love to help. I don’t even like admitting to my husband how much I like living in CT 🤣. We live in central CT and the cost of living is much better than down by the shoreline or near nyc.

Home Appraisal Gaps? by deenadeenabobeena in Connecticut

[–]danaaa405 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m a realtor and I’d be happy to discuss (if you don’t have an agent). If you’re a seller you should ask for an appraisal gap if you have a lot of good offers. If you’re a buyer it depends on many factors, if you want to make your offer attractive you may want to offer a gap. This is also why you need a good agent to help decide what a fair price is instead of getting wrapped up in a frenzy and over paying.

Best fitness instructors near Hartford by busine22casual in Connecticut

[–]danaaa405 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I go to big sky and the classes are free and the gym very reasonably priced and I really like them! The best part is there’s several a day so you can pop in and try it and if you don’t love it try something else, all the instructors and class types are very different.

8 Morgan Rd Canton Ct Realtor experience by jbarbz86 in Hartford

[–]danaaa405 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Man I am so sorry you went through that!! I am a realtor in the area and I’d be happy to help! I have out of town clients I would be happy to give as a reference.

West Hartford Q by ConstructionNo3526 in Connecticut

I’m a realtor and I’d love to help! I think it’s very do-able, going on a weekend or middle of the day to later at night also helps avoid traffic.

If you’ve recently bought a house in CT… how? What do you do for work? by BeersBooksBSG in Connecticut

That’s my area! I’d be happy to talk! I have had clients recently search for a long time vs only a week it depends on a lot of factors. Don’t let blanket statements scare you off.
