I can’t even say enough about how amazing Mikayla is! We worked with her in selling our condo and purchasing a new home. She made sure to explain everything to us at every stage of the buying process, and ensured that we understood all of our options. Everyone knows how terrible the market is right now, but Mikayla never let us lose hope even after being outbid so many time, she took every loss personally and I could tell that she was genuinely sad for us and our family when we had to go back to looking. She never gave up, and was just as excited for us to find our dream home as we were! Even though I hope we never have to move again, I know that if we do we will work with Mikayla again without hesitation, and I’ve already started recommending her to anyone looking for their home because I know she will make them feel like they’re her most important clients like she always did with us. We will be forever grateful for Mikayla and everything she’s done for us, and I can’t wait to continue to update her with pictures of our little home improvements in the future!… [Read full reviews on Zillow]

Mikayla is an extremely professional and passionate agent. My spouse and I are strong personalities and, as second-time homebuyers with some personal real estate experience, we definitely tested Mikayla and she did an amazing job! She worked hard and stayed patient as she helped us find our dream home, after almost 40 showings! We were looking for a unique home with a large property in northern Fairfield County, which became a huge challenge in an extremely competitive pandemic market. Mikayla remained supportive and optimistic, while constantly accommodating our schedules to view homes. Mikayla was consistent with her communication with other agents and was able to help get our offer accepted while competing in a multiple offer bidding situation. Once under contract, Mikayla worked tirelessly to provide us a smooth, amicable transaction with the sellers. We couldn't be happier to recommend Mikayla to anyone moving forward, whether you are a first time home buyer or are looking to purchase your forever home, she will be a great asset for anyone.… [Read full reviews on Zillow]

Look no further- - you need Mikayla as your realtor!!! Mikayla is extremely professional, knowledgeable and hard working. She is quick to respond, excellent in advising through the process and a masterful negotiator. As a first time home buyer, she made the process feel incredibly smooth and easy. Everyone we spoke to told us that our process was an absolute anomaly - it was fast, easy and nearly stress-free. I attribute this entirely to Mikayla. She listens attentively, getting to know you in order to direct the process effectively, she knows what to look for and is always prepared. In addition to all of this, she is kind, funny and a joy to be around. She even bakes yummy snacks for the longer days to make sure you don't get hungry, and remembers the important moments in your life. You can tell that this isn't just business for Mikayla. She cares about her clients as human beings, and in the world today -- what more could you ask for?… [Read full reviews on Zillow]
Mikayla was very detail oriented and paid attention to what my husband and I were looking for in a home.

Mikayla truly cares about helping you find exactly what you are looking for and you can tell that she loves what she does. We highly recommend Mikayla as she is professional, kind and shows her passion in every step of the process. In addition to helping us find our new home Mikayla did an excellent job helping us sell our previous home.… [Read full reviews on Zillow]
Mikayla was recommended to me by a friend and coworker, and I'm so glad she did. Mikayla made the hectic homebuying experience very refreshing with her positive attitude. I appreciated her excitement and enthusiasm while we were viewing homes, and her candor and real talk when it came to serious discussions. Overall my best experience with a realtor. She didn't pressure you to buy a home like other realtors I've worked with tend to do, making the decision exclusively your own. Highly recommend her!!… [Read full reviews on Zillow]

Mikayla’s professionalism, composure, and attention to detail far surpassed my expectations and changed my opinion on the level of service that can be provided by a real estate agent. She remained accessible and communicative to both myself and the other parties involved in both transactions - the sale of my house and purchase of my new home! When my closing date was unexpectedly moved up, she was able to stay calm in a stressful situation and manage many logistics to allow me to close on both properties on the same day. She helped turn my dream house into a home and my home into a happy memory!… [Read full reviews on Zillow]
