"After renting for two years following my divorce, buying a home for my kids and me was a deeply emotional journey—filled with excitement, empowerment, and, at times, anxiety. Amanda and Gen were there for me every step of the way, providing not only their real estate expertise but also unwavering support through the ups and downs of the process. From navigating the mortgage, inspection, and closing to simply reassuring me when I needed it most, they truly went above and beyond. After months of renovations, my kids and I moved into our happy home, and I still have moments where I need to pinch myself—it’s ours, and it’s just right for our fresh start. If you’re looking for realtors who genuinely care, listen, and guide you with patience and professionalism (and a little bit of humor), Amanda and Gen are the absolute best. I couldn’t have asked for a better team to help make this dream a reality! -CP"

"Working with Amanda Davenport and her partner, Genevieve Schettino was too good to be true, and the experience my wife and I had with them ought to be a case study for real estate brokers and agents who want to build a successful business full of happy clients. In my experience, and I say this as a professional recruiter who also makes a commission-based living, working with a real estate professional is often a leap of faith and a process wrought with impersonal and phony tactics, driven by the agent or broker's desire to make a fee. Amanda and Gen, however, traffic in and have built a business on forming real, strong, and genuine relationships with their clients. They couple that foundation with expertise and knowledge about the local markets (Darien most especially, but extending throughout Fairfield County) that is unmatched in the local community, superior marketing and negotiation skills, an unrelenting work ethic, and a profound commitment to their clients. Indeed, they are the total package and the proof is in the pudding. In 2021, we received a brilliant, proactive marketing piece from Amanda and Gen in the mail that humbly demonstrated they were THE go-to listing brokers in our neighborhood and invited a conversation with them, no strings attached. We had that conversation, in person, at our dinning room table and that was the start of a now 4-year old relationship. Between then and now, we had two false-starts on listing our home (interrupted by our nerves and then a pregnancy), we put offers in on a few houses (won one and had to walk away), finally did list our home and it sold in 24 hours for an offer beyond our wildest imagination (ALL-CASH, way above ask, with a multiple month lease-back, etc.), and bought our forever, dream home at an excellent value. Amanda and Gen were always there for us and still are -- we closed on our sale and purchase over a year ago and are still in touch with them regularly. They are the best of the best, in every way. If you are thinking about working with Amanda Gen, stop thinking and jump in. You won't regret it -AR"

"Amanda Davenport, and her real-estate partner Gen Schettino, are without a doubt the two best real estate agents anyone could work with. If you are looking to buy a home or considering selling, I would highly recommend you reach out to Amanda and Gen. They are the best of the best. Extremely knowledgeable of the market, in the know of upcoming homes, trusted advisors throughout the process, very well respected amongst other agents in the area, and they turned what is typically a stressful process into a fun and enjoyable experience! We couldn't be more grateful for them as they guided my wife and me through our first time home buying process: showing us any home we wanted to see, advising us on what are fair prices (even helping to make sure we didn't overpay), and were responsive to all of our questions and concerns. We loved working with Amanda and Gen and can't recommend them enough! -MH"

They helped us find our perfect home and taught us so much along the way. We were new to the area, and their honesty and perspective created a trusting relationship from the very beginning; they are the best we have ever dealt with, and we highly recommend them! -LL"

"Amanda and her partner Genevieve Schettino are truly an amazing team of realtors! They were wonderful to work with and not only helped us find an amazing house, but were warm and accommodating for our young family during an international move back to the US. They took the time to help us understand the different towns and neighborhoods in the area. Always ahead of the curve, they know the market inside and out! Amanda and Gen are the best, and I cannot recommend them enough! -EC"

"Amanda Davenport and Genevieve Schettino recently helped us to find and purchase our forever home in Darien, CT. Although we are local residents, Amanda offered to take us on a tour of town so that we could get a better feel for neighborhoods that we aren’t as familiar with. Amanda is very knowledgeable about the area, characteristics of different schools/home associations, and has a wealth of knowledge about what houses had closed in the previous years, as well as what was coming on the market soon. Amanda was a skilled and highly effective communicator, and she always answered our questions or concerns quickly and thoroughly. She walked us through each step of the process and made buying our new home a smooth process. She was an effective negotiator, and she was thoughtful about taking our opinions into consideration. Although we haven’t listed our current home yet, when it is time to do so, we will certainly be working with Amanda again, as she is a very smart and trustworthy person. We would highly recommend working with Amanda for your real estate needs in Darien -KP"

"We couldn't have asked for a better selling or buying experience than we had with Amanda and Gen. Their outstanding attention to detail and customer care ensured our peace of mind and top dollar for our home. They were also patient in helping us find our dream home and held our hand through a complicated process. Finally, it's important to note how above and beyond they went to prepare our home for the market. We could not recommend them more highly and are so grateful to them for all their hard work on our behalf! -MR"

We had an amazing experience, and not only did they expertly advise us, delivered outstanding service, and sold our home within 2 weeks, but they were an absolute pleasure to work with, and I enjoyed every moment of time we spent together.
