About Beth Barry Brown

"I've bought and sold several houses over the past 20 years, and by far, Beth is the best realtor that I have used. She is very compassionate and gives her clients 110% all of the time. She recently sold my house in West Hartford and because of her help, I had offers above asking price.
She has extensive knowledge of the market as well as numerous contacts to help you with any repairs or upgrades that need to be completed and great prices!
She went above and beyond in all that she did for me and seemed personally invested.
I highly recommend Beth and would use her again to buy or sell a home in the area."
Sandy (West Hartford)

"What a pleasure it was working with Beth! She was in constant contact with us and responded quickly by phone, email or text.
She was so helpful in giving us information about the neighborhood. Names of electricians , plumbers, veterinarians and many more! Being new to the area her tips and recommendations were priceless! She gave us a lot of support during a difficult transition to our new home. Always there to listen and off great advice. She has become a dear friend and we are so grateful to have found her! If it wasn?t for Beth we never would have found our dream storybook home in West Hartford! We wake up every day and say we can not believe we found such a unique house and it is ours! We would highly recommend Beth to our friends and anyone looking for a first class agent.
Beth is the best!
Pat and Charlie H."

"I can't overstate how much we appreciated working with Beth in purchasing our home. We weren't easy to work with! We were only able to come to look at houses for one week (from several thousand miles away), had very specific needs to be met, and then struggled with inspection issues on our chosen house. But Beth was there every step of the way, making what should have been an impossible task possible with her arranging of work, making phones calls, referring us to specialists and ensuring that we felt comfortable with what was our first house purchase. And I should say that she showed us so many great houses in the few days she had with us! Weeks after our purchase she continues to check in with us, give us recommendations for our new neighborhood and show up for inspections of the work that was done by the previous owners when we are unable to. This is AFTER she's already received her commission! You can't go wrong in working with Beth, and you'll probably gain a new friend out of it.

"I was very fortunate to have Beth Brown as my realtor. She was on top of everything even before I had made my final decision to sell my condo. Beth is an extremely gifted woman. Her talents are endless. Whether you need her expertise in staging your home or the most qualified individuals to help with preparing for your move, she has the knowledge and skills we all need at this most stressful and challenging time in our lives. Beth is very caring and always looking out for her client's best interests. She was always there to answer all questions and frustrations I was dealing with at the time. Due to all I have mentioned above, my condo sold instantly! I thought it would take about six months at least with the way the market direction was at that time. Many neighbors are still trying to sell theirs - six months later and still no sale. Not only did Beth sell my condo so quickly but negotiated a selling price that everyone said I would never get! And I am a very satisfied client. With great thanks to my favorite realtor,"
Jeanne Hodges (Farmington)

"In 2015 I had to empty and sell the West Hartford home my parents had lived in since 1960. I do not live locally, which added to the challenge. Beth Brown's practical assistance and emotional support were invaluable throughout this process. She saw the house as my parents did, and focused on its many unique features.

Beth made appointments with movers and contractors to meet me at the house. They all provided reasonable estimates and I was very happy with the people I chose to do all of the work. Beth even took eight large garbage bags of bedding to a local ASCPA for me! The house went on the market empty with refinished floors and cleanly painted walls. We had a buyer in three days. Beth then found contractors to repair the roof, chimney, and garage door as required by the inspection report. The new owners were delighted with the house.

I highly recommend Beth Brown as a real estate agent who will efficiently and effectively manage every aspect of selling your home. And she'll do all of it with that great smile."
Nancy Wood Heitz (Darien)

Beth Brown was a tremendous help to me in selling my home. I had relocated to Texas and she sold my home in 11 days and took care of everything. I wasn't there to hire or meet any contractors and Beth had all of that covered. She is well connected in West Hartford and had a resource for everything.
Jerry Rodman

Beth Brown was our Realtor for the sale of our house in July 2012. She was great throughout the entire process, from getting the house ready to sell, to staging and showing it, to the actual sale, including a fairly excruciating escrow process. Beth was enthusiastic from the start, coming in and helping us to decide the things we needed to do to make the house market ready.She was knowledgeable about the state of the market at the time and pointed out the optimal time for putting it on the market. She arranged for the website and took and posted excellent, flattering photos of the interior for it. Her help and attention to detail made sure that everything was done on time. Thanks to her efforts we got a very good offer on the house within 10 days of putting it on the market.She patiently guided us through the process of counter offers and various requests from the buyers. Working with Beth was a great experience - we can't recommend her enough.

I met Beth Brown almost seven years ago when my husband and I relocated our family to West Hartford, CT. Beth's warm smile and willingness to help us get settled created an instant friendship. Having grown up in West Hartford, Beth has a keen ability to share her enthusiasm for the town and all it has to offer. She knew immediately what doctors, dentists, restaurants and shops to recommend to us. We have two school-aged children and Beth told us about Cornerstone, Westmoor Park and many other wonderful resources that our children continue to enjoy. Beth is enthusiastic, knowledgeable, cooperative, flexible, kind, caring and professional. She is someone that I feel very fortunate to know. I am always eager to introduce people to Beth Brown.

Over the years, West Hartford has changed in countless ways, however in many aspects it has stayed consistent. Not only does Beth know the town from a historical standpoint because she grew up in the town, but she also looks at it with a contemporary outlook. As a mother with children in the school system, a resident with a personal perspective on the local economy and its impact on property values, plus firsthand experience in major renovation of an older home, Beth brings a lot of knowledge to the job.
One of Beth's many strengths is her creativity, which allows her to see potential in prospective opportunities, however she is very grounded and understands how to work within constraints. She is an excellent listener and is very detail-oriented - both traits that enable her to understand what a prospective buyer is looking for and then sell effectively as appropriate. She is also very abreast of current cultural trends in home design, so she has an understanding of what selling points will be key in the marketing of any home. She manages her time well, and will do the same for prospective buyers in terms of not wasting their time showing properties that do not fit their criteria. Beth's excellent networking skills ensure that she will be on top of any new opportunities as well.

Beth was a pleasure to work with. I can't thank her enough for her hard work, professionalism and understanding in the sale of my house. She represented my home with the utmost respect after having resided here for over 16 years. Beth made the process quite smooth and stress free. Her attention to detail, work ethic and high energy as well as her knowledge of the current market provided me the support and confidence I needed. She was quick to return phone calls, answer all of my questions and she made sure all of the paperwork was in order and deadlines were met. Through it all, she was a Realtor who was also a partner and a friend. I would unconditionally recommend her to all of my friends and acquaintances.
Elisa Dellavecchia

Beth was an excellent broker. We really appreciated her local knowledge (especially regarding schools-we have an elementary school age child). She was also great in listening to our needs in a house and finding appropriate listings. Once we made the offer her attention to the details to get us to close was wonderful and made it very easy for us. We highly recommend her.
Susan Stearns

Beth is a "finger on the pulse" realtor. She knows the inventory and is very proactive. She has a sense of what her clients want and does not waste valuable time looking outside of these parameters. She makes her clients her friends and is incredibly patient but persistent. She went above and beyond for us at many points during our purchase experience.
Chris Brigham

Beth helped us sell our house and buy a new one during the summer of 2014. We could not possibly have had a better experience than we had with her.
Our previous sell/buy was a very distasteful experience. Our then-realtor and her company were at best indifferent about doing their job. It took over a year to sell our house, and having realtors we did not trust made it a terrible, stressful experience.
Needless to say, when we decided we needed to move again in 2014, we were not looking forward to the process. Fortunately, a friend of ours suggested we call Beth. She immediately got to work finding us houses which met our needs and which were in our price range. She was never unavailable to show us a house, no matter the weather, time of day or other commitments she might have had. Beth never tried to "push" a house on us. She looked at each one at least as critically as we did.
When we finally found "the house," Beth moved with amazing speed to get us all of the information we needed to make an offer, and was instrumental in getting our offer accepted.
This was much more fun than selling the house we owned, but once again, Beth did amazing things. She spent a long time looking the place over, suggested a few minor changes, and concluded that "I can sell this house in two weeks."
As it turned out, Beth didn't sell our house in two weeks; she sold it in THIRTEEN DAYS from the date we put it on the market. The price was very close to our asking price.
Amazingly, Beth's efforts did not end then with a "see you at the closing." She was extremely helpful with dealing with our buyers' "interesting" requests about how they wanted the house left and surprises from the building inspectors about the "interesting" ways in which some of our tradespeople had made improvements and repairs over the years. These situations were enough to drive us "over the edge" but Beth helped us work through all of the problems.
We should also mention that Beth is one of the rare, genuinely nice people in the real estate business. She is incredibly devoted to her customers. When we were packing, she called some other customers and arranged to have us get all the packing boxes from one who had just unpacked after moving in. This was a great favor which we truly appreciated, but it didn't particularly surprise us. I guess we were spoiled.
When does that ever happen in this business?
We might have gotten through this process without Beth's help, but we don't want to think about what it would have been like. Anyone who wants to buy or sell a house in and around West Hartford should call Beth Brown first and be prepared for as good an experience as one could hope to have dealing with real estate.
