I couldn’t have asked for better realtors than Jesse and Courtney Shafer. They were knowledgeable, responsive, thoughtful, and completely committed to getting my Weston home sold successfully. They guided me through every step, handled the inevitable challenges calmly and professionally, and always made me feel that my interests came first. Their experience, judgment, and attention to detail were invaluable. I would recommend them without hesitation to anyone buying or selling a home in the Weston area.

We can’t say enough about our real estate agents, The Shafer Team, who helped us sell our Weston home. Their professionalism, insight, and genuine care were unmatched from start to finish. They nailed the pricing strategy, staged our home beautifully — which had a direct impact on our sale — and guided us through every detail of the process. Having worked with other agents in the past, the level of hands-on support and expertise they provided was truly unparalleled. We wouldn’t trust anyone else to help us buy or sell our next home. We’re beyond grateful to them.

About The Shafer Team-CT

The Shafer Team at Compass was founded by Jesse Shafer on a few unglamorous fundamentals: clear, honest communication, marketing that refuses to look like everyone else's, and the conviction that even a complex deal should be a little bit fun. More than 25 years and north of $967,000,000 in transactions later, that standard anchors everything we do, and it now runs straight through the team's Connecticut Division, led by Courtney Shafer.

After two decades in New York City, Courtney moved with Jesse and their two children to Fairfield County, trading the brownstone blocks of Brooklyn for stone walls and sandy beaches. A lifelong designer and professional home stager, she has gut renovated several of her own properties, from a historic jute factory to a Brooklyn Craftsman to a modern contemporary in Weston, the town the family now calls home. She spots what a space could become long before it gets there, and finds real joy in helping clients uncover the next chapter in their home's story.

Connecticut is not a weekend jaunt for us. It is where we live, raise our kids and walk our dog Ringo. From the lush and wooded backcountry of Weston, Wilton and Redding to the shorelines of Westport, Southport and Fairfield, we cover all of Fairfield County with the kind of local fluency you only earn by living it.

Let's find your next chapter together.

Courtney Shafer

After calling New York City home for two decades, Courtney moved with her husband and two children to beautiful Fairfield County. With a lifelong passion for design and interiors, she has renovated several of her own properties: from a historic jute factory to a century-old Craftsman in Brooklyn, and most recently, a modern contemporary in Weston, CT.

Jesse Shafer

After more than 25 years living and working in New York City—across eleven neighborhoods and three boroughs—and now bringing that experience to Fairfield County, I’ve developed an intimate knowledge of the metro area. I’ve bought, sold, leased, and invested in co-ops, condos, and townhouses. I know the process inside and out because I’ve lived it, many times over.
