Pat Blanko

"I just sold my home in Woodbury with the invaluable help of Pat Blanko. Pat was straight forward and in tune with the market. She managed expectations and is honest. There was never a time that I reached out to Pat that she was not available, within minutes, on the phone?or a text to tell you when she would be?.that goes a long way in my book. Selling a home can be very stressful, but Pat is a veteran that has experience. Bringing in potential buyers is one thing, but, I found her especially helpful during and after the negotiations and signed contract?when many deals can fall apart..She is the voice of reason and calm, when I certainly needed it most?and no matter what, Pat, leaned into the deal, never shying away.
Would I use Pat again? Absolutely! And I highly recommend her and her very capable and dedicated assistant Tracy to anyone looking to sell their home. First Class, a very hard worker..Real-estate sales is no part time gig for Pat Blanko."
Andree D. (Woodbury CT)

"I highly recommend Pat Blanko if you are considering selling your home, as she is the best! Pat was an amazing agent from day 1, and believed that we could sell our home for more than we expected. She did a thorough assessment of our home and gave us recommendations for staging it. We followed every recommendation, put our house on the market, had 2 offers within 10 days and sold our home above asking price. Pat is an expert; she is knowledgeable, honest and responsive! It was a pleasure to work with Pat and we are so grateful for her kindness and guidance throughout this process!"
Jessica F. (Southbury CT)

"Pat Blanko was a tremendous help and was the reason why we sold our house within 7 days above asking price. She was very knowledgeable and coached us through the entire process."
Paul S. (Southbury CT)

"Pat recently helped me sell my condo that I had been renting. This was about a 2 year process as I had to evict terrible tenants before I could sell. Pat was right there with me throughout the entire ordeal. She was caring and compassionate, and always professional. She treated my wife and I like we were part of her family. She always took the time to help us when we had questions, and truly went above and beyond. She's not simply a good realtor, she's a great person who happens to be a realtor.

I cannot recommend Pat highly enough, and I cannot think of a realtor doing more to help my family than she did. I was fortunate to have had Pat not only as my realtor, but by my side through an extremely difficult eviction process. Thankfully, Pat made the process of selling remarkably easy.

Thank you so much Pat.
Mike"
Mike C. (Seymour CT)

Kristen S (Oxford CT)

"Pat was amazing during our relocation from NC into our new Oxford home, and allowed us to purchase our home long distance with her help and knowledge!

She was very easy to work with, professional and very well known in the Oxford area. I would highly recommend Pat!"
Charlotte W. (Oxford CT)

"Pat made the process of selling our house less stressful then what I thought it was going to be. I worried just how long it was going to take to sell my house and she was confident I would have a buyer within a week of placing it on the market. Pat is very familiar with my home and knew there would not be any issue and assured me through the whole process that my house would sell. She helped me make sure my house was ready to be put on the market and gave me suggestions that would make sure my house was ready. She made me feel that no question was not important and that I can call her anytime. She always returned my calls, if she was unable to talk, and was ready to help.
I want to put this out to everyone, so that you can be assured you will have a realtor that will work hard for you, in making sure your house sells."
Dawn L. (Oxford CT)

"Pat took the time to find out our goals and answer our questions even during a crazy market. She was instrumental in selling our home in a timely manner, guiding us through the entire process, often with a sense of humor which we found refreshing. She is an extremely knowledgeable and patient agent, an important asset during a stressful life event."
Ann O (Oxford, CT)

"This year we sold and purchased with Pat for the 4th time! Pat is incredible to work with. She?s extremely knowledgeable, patient, and professional. I always appreciated that Pat really took the time to get to know me as a person and not just a client. She cares deeply about her clients and wants what is best for them!"
Allison G (Southbury, CT)

"Having partnered with many realtors over the years, truly expected more of the same experiences with my new purchase efforts.

However, Pat was unbelievable!!!!! From sticking with me over almost two years, knowing of and prompt attention to every detail in the process to referrals of the other professionals [that were equally attentive] that would be needed to conclude the transaction.

As important, she truly worked as quarterback of the team, never did I get, well you need to call etc., she took care of it!!!! Can not speak highly enough of Pat and my experience with her. Truly a professional........"
Steve H. (Middlebury CT)

"Our experience having Pat as our realtor was perfect. Her experience and expertise helped us navigate the whole process of selling our home. She was always available to answer any questions we had, and had our home sold in a very short time. I would highly recommend Pat for any real estate needs!"
Nancy P. (Oxford)

"If anyone should be crazy enough to consider buying and selling in the middle of a pandemic, with two babies... you NEED Pat! She walked us through every step of the process, answered all our questions and made us comfortable. I can?t thank her enough for selling our first home and helping us find our forever home."
Michelle Y (Oxford)

"My wife and I were very pleased with the services provided by Pat and are glad we choose her as our realtor. From the first interview, she was more polished and prepared to help us with the listing process than several other local realtors. She is very responsive when you call and works hard for your best interests. We had some immediate offers within a few days of listing which ultimately ended up with a cash offer. I want to express again how highly we recommend her as a choice of realtor. She also provided a lot of advice on how to stage the house for showings."
David M. (Middlebury)

"We enjoyed working with Pat. Right from the start we knew that she is extremely knowledgeable especially in selling homes in Oxford. She has a proven track record and has many tools that she utilizes to maximize exposure. She offered many recommendations for home improvements and we listened and did everything she suggested and we had two offers after 23 days on the market ( during the covid-19 pandemic). We had a very positive experience working with Pat and her full time assistant and we definitely recommend her. Thanks Pat!"
Lynn S (Oxford)

"Pat knows the area well and how to price homes. I followed her instructions and was pleased every step of the way. Removing most of our belongings to stage the home for great photos was key. Pat knew exactly what to do. She is straight forward which I greatly appreciated."
Helen M (Oxford)

"We were extremely satisfied with Pat Blanko when we sold a house last year in Redding. Based upon her efficiency in handling that sale, we contracted with her to sell a house in Norwalk which she did in what must be record time AND at full asking price. Pat and her dedicated and extremely proficient team were right there to pitch in through the whole process when I needed on site help and could not be there in person. Pat continues to be the absolute best sales agent I have ever had and makes the most impossibly nerve wracking task of selling a property a pleasure. I've said it before but it bears repeating. You will be pleasantly rewarded when you use Pat for all of your real estate needs. Simply put, she is THE BEST!"
Fred V (Norwalk)

"Pat sold our home in 1 day, she relieved so much stress, saved us money and time that we did not have.

Meg L (Oxford, CT)

Pat's goal was to help me sell my house for the best price and the least amount of "work needed" on my part. Her expertise was what made the difference in the success of that goal. I would strongly suggest following her suggestions as she knew exactly what I needed to do to quickly sell my house. 24 hours sold, at full price, should be all I need to say to use Pat Blanko as your realtor!!
Sande P (Southbury, CT)

"We appreciate Pat Blanko?s hard work very much; if we could rate her 10 stars, we would. Pat Blanko sold our house in about a week from listing to signed offer. After my wife and I interviewed the two best agents according to our research, we chose Pat because she seemed the most responsive, knowledgeable, and experienced. Her confidence and positive personality made people around her feel empowered.
She explained everything clearly, had an actual marketing plan using current technology, and was very quick at each stage, giving guidance all the way through. We would recommend hiring Pat and just doing everything she says to do. She is very professional and intelligent; in our experience she was exactly right 100% of the time from interior design to marketing. We were so amazed by her passion and appreciate her dedication.
Pat works tirelessly. When we had questions, she always responded to us during this peak of the real estate season. Pat is extremely efficient and sold our home so quickly, we couldn?t have done it without her. We highly recommend Pat Blanko, and would never use anyone else for buying or selling."
David M. (Seymour, CT)

"I had the pleasure to work with Pat Blanko during my house hunting months. She was exceptional on many levels, her expertise and knowledge is masterful; her guidance, advice and negotiation skills were priceless and much appreciated. She was professional, knowledgeable, efficient and fast. Pat guided me thru the buying process as a piece of cake. She paid attention to MY personal needs and was there for me until the last minute of the Closing date. I'm truly Grateful, couldn't have done it without her."
Julianna J. (Oxford, CT)

"Pat is very knowledgeable and her 30+ years experience is priceless. She had a plan to sell our house and got it done! We are truly happy with our experience and couldn?t have done it without her."
Cindy R. (Southbury, CT)

"We engaged in an extensive process for selecting our realtor by interviewing a number of agents and speaking with friends in the Oxford area who had recently sold homes. We knew it was important to select the right agent for our house because the home we sold had unique features that could set it apart from the houses with a similar design in town.
Pat immediately recognized the specific advantages of our home and developed an effective marketing strategy. Importantly, she leveraged her mastery of the local market and even agreed with listing our house for a price 10% higher than the upper range that was suggested by the other realtors that we interviewed.
Once we selected Pat as our realtor, we worked closely with her to get the house on the market within just a few days. She provided us with a plan for getting the house prepared for market and this strategy helped us focus our limited time on the most important items that improved our chances of selling the house at the desired price. Pat then quickly listed and held an open house. Within days of listing, Pat had multiple full price offers and we were pleased to accept one that had the most favorable conditions.
Finally, Pat also provided extensive support during the post contract closing process. She helped navigate the improvements that needed to be made as a result of the inspection, identified contractors and her local market knowledge was critical in working with the appraiser which was vital given we had received offers beyond the recommended list price of the other realtors we interviewed.
As a result of our extraordinary experience, we have already recommended Pat to other friends who are considering a home sale and we highly recommend her without reservation. If you want to have the best home sales experience, it is critical to select the best agent in your market and Pat clearly distinguishes herself as the top real-estate agent for the Oxford/Southbury market."
Eric T. (Oxford, CT)

"We were fortunate a friend recommended Pat Blanko when we were looking for a real estate agent to sell our house. Pat advised us on a viable selling price and what we needed to do to attract buyers. We sold our home within 24 hours. Her experience and the amount of homes she has sold is a testament as to why Pat gets the job done. She is also a very nice person and easy to work with. We highly recommend Pat to anyone selling their home."
Diane Y. (Southbury, CT)

"Pat is that rare combination of consummate professional and engaging personality. I have bought and sold seven properties in CT. and was never so impressed as I was in my dealings with her. She was able to garner an attractive offer in a very short time frame which included the lull one usually associates with the holidays. I'll never use anyone else for my real estate requirements. Try her for yours. You won't regret it!"
Fred V (Redding, CT)

"Pat is the best in the business. Knows the market well and knows how to make things happen. We have used other realtors in the past and Pat is a level above. I would never buy or sell another house without using her. Completely professional and sets the expectations correctly. A lot of fun to work with as well"

David O. (Oxford, CT)

"We met Pat when she showed us one of her listings in Seymour. We bought that home. We were so impressed and comfortable with Pat that we asked her to list our home in Newtown. Her expertise on staging and the market is extraordinary. We sold our house in 2 days. When that over fell through, she
didn't skip a beat and reached out to someone else that had shown interest. They came back to see it the same day the previous offer fell through and made an offer. We actually bought and sold within 2 months. Pat has a way of making you feel like you're her only client and is always readily available. My husband and I would highly recommend."
Barb A. (Newtown, CT)

Illiane S. (Seymour CT)

"With Pat Blanko's expertise and assistance, we were able to sell our home in Southbury within 36 hours of listing it! Pat returned my initial phone call within minutes and met with us at a time convenient to us. By the end of our first meeting with Pat, we knew we would sell our home. In fact, Pat said, If you list your home with me, get ready to move, because I will sell your home. Pat was detailed in her explanation of the process and was always available to answer questions along the way. She made valuable suggestions and we were able to establish a price that was fair and attracted buyers immediately. I highly recommend Pat Blanko if you are serious about selling your home"

Henry B. (New Milford, CT)

"Pat is a real estate rockstar! We felt and knew that Pat was there for us every step of the buying process. Great communication and a fun personality make the stress of moving and buying a home much easier to manage. Pat is a legend in these parts because she has the process down to a science."
Erik G. (Oxford, CT)

"This review pertains to Pat Blanko who helped us purchase a large, multiple 7-figure home. If you are shopping in the area (central CT, any of the lakes, etc.) and need someone who can navigate a high ticket purchase, Pat is an expert and I'd highly recommend her. I love her style, too. She is a
New Yorker through and through; punchy, to the point, candid... everything you need to get the right deal, to work quickly, and to avoid mistakes. Pat's team is excellent, too. We never waited for a response, and Pat even made sure we made all of our calls to set up our various services before and after closing on the home. Thank you, Pat - and happy house hunting, everyone!"
Andrew G. (Oxford, Ct)

"Pat represented us on the buyer side of a real estate transaction in June 2018. Our experience with Pat was outstanding. Her responsiveness, experience, expertise, professionalism and accessibility were all top-notch and instilled a high level of confidence throughout the process. Pat truly went
above and beyond with regard to working and resolving some issues that other agents may have tried to avoid. All in the name of closing the deal to everyone's satisfaction. Thank you Pat!"
David H. (Southbury, CT)

"Pat is a solid agent with excellent local knowledge of Oxford and surrounding areas. Pat was able to quickly understand our needs, taste, and desires, and used that knowledge to locate homes she knew we would like while weeding out homes we would not. This maximized our limited time to locate a
beautiful home. Pat was very responsive at working issues during a stressful process. Result, beautiful home in a great neighborhood."
Bill L. (Southbury, CT)

"I listed my house with Pat Blanko and it sold within 2 days. Pat takes the time to come to your house and help stage it for the showings. This was a big factor in selling it so quickly. The staging helped make the photos look amazing and showed off the best features of the house. The best part
of this transaction was that Pat was always available for me no matter what time of day or night it was. She made selling your house of 28 years a very good experience."
Maureen S. (Oxford)

Michael M (Stratford, CT)

"We chose Pat because of her reputation in Oxford. Luckily for us we were able to have her assist us with both selling and buying. Her listings are hands down the best in the business. Once we described to her our dream home she was able to key in on exactly the types of homes we were looking for. During the entire process she made us feel like family. It was if she was looking for a house for one of her kids. Our kids loved being around her and she made a possibly stressful time a very enjoyable one."
Edgard C (Oxford, CT)

The pictures that where taken were top notch. We also liked that this is her primary job."

She also handled all of the negotiations and communications with our buyers so we didn't have to get involved and could focus on packing up. As unexpected bumps came up, Pat and her team took care of them before they became a worry for us. Pat is an aggressive marketer, and we were pleased with the exposure our home got online and in print"

Steve I. (Southbury, CT)

I would recommend her especially if you don't have a lot of experience in buying/selling houses as you going to need a lot of advise."
Steve B. (Southbury, CT)

"Simply put, Pat Blanko and her right-hand woman are magnificent! Pat is extremely knowledgeable about the Southbury market and all neighboring towns. She has great ideas about house staging and isn?t afraid to tell you to move something! I was impressed with her marketing and think that was a vital part of selling our home. From professional photography to open houses, she stayed on top of it all to make sure it sold quickly. We listed at the end of February when there was still some snow on the ground and the second it melted, she had new pictures taken to put on the listing.

Pat is very professional, responsive and knowledgeable. She helped make a very stressful process easier and we ended up selling our home in about a 3 month time frame. If you are looking to sell, I highly recommend Pat Blanko and her team!"

We hired her on a recommendation and will define try refer others to her."
Jane H (Seymour, CT)

"
Pat was the second agent we used. The first one had our house on the market for the first year (2015) and it did not sell. In 2016 we decided to use Pat as our listing agent (having already met her and seen many homes thru her). She was professional, organized and confident. Pat was able to sell our house in a town that she was not too familiar with, plus our yard was not practical and turned many buyers off the first time around. She was able to do all this while simultaneously helping us buy our new home. Both transactions went amazingly well and the timing was perfect. In total it took her less than five months to wrap up both of our transactions. We literally closed on both houses on the same day! I highly, highly recommend Pat. She knows what she is doing and she does it very well!"
Lucy S (Hamden, CT)

"Pat Blanko was very professional, always available to answer questions. She gave me great advice on how to get the house ready for sale and sold it sooner than I expected. Just in time for Christmas, what a gift.

We highly recommend Pat"
Fran D. (Seymour, CT)

"Pat was very professional and knowledgeable. She is a hard worker and very responsive! She was very experienced and really didn't express her opinion but rather let you form your own.

Job well done!"

She also anticipated potential problems and alerted us to take measures to move the process along. We recommend her highly."

Catherine T. (Seymour, CT)

Joan H. (Oxford, CT)

"Pat guided us when preparing our house for sale, helping us decide where best to invest our money and efforts. We followed her advice on staging the home which helped a lot in getting a relatively quick offer.

We also bought a home through Pat. Highly, highly recommended!!!"
Jon S (Oxford, CT)

She stays in close contact and provides honest and relevant feedback. During our home search she showed us over 15 different properties that exactly matched our long and complex wish list. She was patient and helpful. And in the end, we purchased a house that Pat recommended to us based on her knowledge of who we were and what we were looking for."
Ray P (Oxford, CT)

I could not be more pleased to have hired Pat Blanko to list and sell my home in Southbury, CT. The level of professionalism and attentiveness from both Pat and Tracey was truly outstanding. Recommendations for work to be done were delivered in an honest and appropriate manner, even when the message was not so easy to hear. Phone calls, emails and texts received speedy, sensible replies. Showings and feedback were handled in an organized fashion. The results speak for themselves: within 4 weeks, an offer which came to fruition was received, despite the fact that we were in the midst of the holiday season. There is a reason why Pat Blanko is a top agent in our market area, competently guiding so many of our neighbors to "sold." She absolutely is the real deal.
Stephanie M (Southbury, CT)

"We bought our home from Pat six years ago and she just sold it for us this week. Throughout the six years, we remained close to Pat, who was always ready with remodeling advice, recommendations for service providers, and explanations of local zoning and real estate laws. In short, once you hire her she is your realtor for the long-haul. And that's what sets her apart: her business model is built on having lasting relationships with her clients. My husband and I unequivocally recommend her as a diligent, knowledgeable and client-centered realtor."
J.W. (Oxford CT)

"We had a difficult house to sell, an antique colonial on a busy road. Several other realtors were unsuccessful selling the property before we contacted Pat. Immediately after she took over our listing we began seeing an increase in showings. After a few short weeks we received an offer which we accepted. She guided us through the whole process with her expertise and made the transaction smooth and worry free. Have and will continue to highly recommend Pat Blanko"
Mike G. (Newton, CT)

"I am a professional housing developer working in CT for 20+ years. I've know Pat for over 10 years and listed many homes for sale with her. Of all the local agents she has the best marketing program with the broadest reach to help properly expose properties to the market. This allows her to achieve the highest selling prices in the shortest amount of time. Pat is also an experienced agent and negotiator who works tirelessly to get the job done no matter what hurdles are thrown in front of her. I highly recommend her to anyone looking to list a home or property in her market areas."
