"Brenda Colon is the epitome of a real estate professional. She is everything that you could hope for in an agent. I was very anxious about selling my property in Redding, CT. I didn't have a feel for the property or its marketability because I had never lived in it, but rather had been renting it for many years. Brenda visited the house and immediately knew what needed to be done to make it attractive to a future home buyer. She has vision and imagination. Whether it is to convert a small, useless pantry into a much more essential bathroom or add landscaping to beautify the outside, she envisions it and gets it done. She is highly focused and has endless energy. She also has a wealth of sources, which she called upon as she transformed this very standard residence into a gorgeous home. Brenda is also familiar with the building codes and procedures for tackling issues involving compliance for oil tanks, septic systems, water potability, electricity, radon issues - the list is endless. In her past life, Brenda may have been a psychologist because she knows how to convince you that a certain capital improvement is essential, while another will not be a deal breaker. Wisdom, experience, knowledge, patience, energy, empathy, love. These traits sum up Brenda Colon" - Robert R.

"I wish there were a 6-star category because Brenda is in that category - superb. She has extensive knowledge of the locale and was able to give us crucial advice as to what systems in our home were in possible violation of building department requirements so that we could take remedial action in anticipation of an inspection. She has an innate ability to put herself in the prospective homeowner's mindset and zone in on what parts of the house we needed to repair, renovate, or replace. She has an uncanny ability to read people and so very respectfully and gently encouraged us to make somewhat costly repairs and renovations which would help justify our sales price target. When we balked about the extra cost of staging, she was able to negotiate a lower price and actually brought some of her own items, carrying them up steep stairs to renovate an empty tiny bedroom into an "office". She kept us informed every step of the way and was tireless in her positive attitude during the negotiation process. Brenda is highly intelligent, persistent, patient, and diligent. She is also very knowledgeable about the mortgage loan process and keeps track of the prospective purchasers' progress in that regard. And throughout it all, she is so fun to work with - she has a killer sense of humor that hits home just when you need it! I recommend Brenda enthusiastically." - Mary R.

"Brenda reached out to me when I was first starting research on purchasing an apartment in New York City. As a native New Yorker but a first-time buyer, I had seen a lot of different apartments over the years and knew what to expect, but needed a lot of help with the buying process. Brenda was PERFECT. She knows the neighborhoods in the city, in and out. She is extremely honest and open in her advice about which apartments you see are valued correctly and are of the most value. She is great at dealing with people and works to get as much information as possible from other brokers/agents/companies to help you gather all the details you may need to make a decision. When it comes to crunch time, when you decide to make an offer and prepare your application (she helped with a co-op application and interview), Brenda is an expert. She is as on top of things as anyone can be. With complicated financial records, she still helped me prepare tons of paperwork and gather every tiny piece of information that was needed for the board to ensure that my application was not rejected, and I did not waste any time or incur any additional fees. She seemed to work around the clock, always on call, always ready to answer questions, willing to drive out to New Jersey at any hour to collect signatures on documents, and working with my limited/inflexible schedule to meet all deadlines and get me into my apartment in a demanding timeframe. I can't wait to recommend Brenda to my friends or anyone I meet looking for an apartment. She is phenomenal and will make sure she finds you your dream home under your own conditions and demands." - Heather D.

"We worked with Brenda Colon to purchase our new home and sell our old one. She was phenomenal. It can be an intimidating process, but she walked us through step by step and made sure everything was in order. She helped us prepare our home to sell and worked tirelessly to make sure it all went smoothly, even when there were bumps in the road. She communicated with us constantly, and we never felt like we were being put on the back burner or were in over our heads. I would use Brenda again to sell & buy a thousand homes and recommend her to anyone looking to step into the world of real estate!" - Rebecka G.

"Brenda was extremely helpful in the sale of our CT home. It was clear from the start that she was well experienced in bringing buyers and sellers together with successful outcomes. Real estate transactions often come with their share of unique speed bumps/hurdles, and Brenda knew exactly what to do to create successful resolutions. She had very good knowledge of local services to assist with all aspects of the transaction, from inspections and tradespeople to packers, movers, and cleaners. She was extremely responsive and professional throughout the process, and we feel very fortunate that we had Brenda as part of our home sale." - James T.

"I've worked with brokers in the past, and that's how I got stuck paying a broker's fee AND with an apartment I didn't like. I explained to Brenda what I was looking for, and she completely understood me. She has sent me over listings of exactly what I had in mind. Brenda really understands the different nuances of each neighborhood and has helped to guide me on each one - pros/cons, transportation options, etc. Working with Brenda has been so great. She's on top of her game, and I'm so happy she's my broker! She has truly taken the pain out of finding a place in NYC!!" - Christina C.
