What people are saying....

We worked with Sarah earlier this year, and she was absolutely amazing. Super knowledgeable about the market and the area, patiently helped us discover our own preferences, navigate the inevitable compromises, and then negotiate,. We will definitely work with Sarah again, and we highly recommend working with her!

We had a fantastic experience working with Joe Karl. My wife and I were looking for a place in Vermont for the ski season, and after putting a deposit on our first property, things unfortunately didn’t work out. That’s where Joe really proved his value. Instead of simply moving on, Joe jumped right back in, stayed positive, and worked hard to help us find another property that fit our needs. He was responsive, patient, knowledgeable about the local market, and genuinely cared about making sure we found the right place. Real estate transactions don’t always go as planned, and it’s during the unexpected challenges that you truly learn who you’re working with. Joe went above and beyond to make what could have been a stressful situation feel smooth and manageable. We greatly appreciated his professionalism, communication, and dedication throughout the process. The property we ultimately purchased is exactly what we were hoping for. It gives our family a wonderful place to spend ski season together while also offering the flexibility of a lock-off unit, allowing us to rent all or part of the property when we’re not using it. Joe understood what was important to us and helped us find a place that checked all the boxes. Thanks to Joe, we’ll be spending this ski season in Vermont creating memories with our family while also having a property that fits our long-term goals. We couldn’t be more grateful for his help and would gladly work with him again. We highly recommend Joe to anyone looking to buy or sell in Vermont. — Phil & Melanie

Brendan helped me purchase my first condo in VT. I was not able to physically see the unit, so I relied on Brendan 150%, and he was 150% reliable. He took the extra time to provide real video/photo footage for me (b/c the listing ones are always a little hard to believe!) and provided real insight on the neighborhood, its reputation, the community, etc. Given I was long-distance, he took the time to gain my trust - there were no surprises. He is very responsive and kept me on my toes w/r/t deadlines. He provided all the recommended 3rd parties - all worked out to be very reliable. Highly, highly recommend Brendan. - New Winterplace Homeowner

Having Brendan guide us through this sale was great. He was able to suggest some great local folks to help with the general inspection as well as a deeper dive into some of the systems in the house. He really went to bat for us as we negotiated with the sellers, getting us to a comfortable place while we had some repairs to keep in mind. Brendan's local knowledge is great having relationships with the town hall and supporting professionals. Buying a house is stressful, but Brendan was able to make sure all of our concerns were addressed.  - Village Buyer

We had a wonderful experience working with Sarah and would highly recommend her to anyone looking to buy, sell, or find a seasonal rental in the Ludlow, VT area. From the very beginning, Sarah stood out for her deep local knowledge and professionalism. She understands the market incredibly well and was always able to provide thoughtful, fact-based guidance. What we appreciated most was her honesty and balanced perspective—she consistently shared her views in a clear, unbiased way, which made it easy for us to trust her throughout the process. Sarah was also extremely responsive, organized, and proactive. Whether we were searching for a home or coordinating our seasonal rental, she made everything feel seamless and well-managed. She anticipated questions before we even asked them and ensured every detail was handled smoothly. Beyond her expertise, she was simply a pleasure to work with—warm, patient, and genuinely invested in helping us find the right fit. At no point did we feel pressured; instead, we felt supported and well-advised every step of the way. We’re very grateful to have worked with Sarah and would not hesitate to recommend her to anyone looking in the Ludlow area. - Seasonal Renter 25/26 season  - Buyer 2026

I had a great experience working with Joe Karl. He was extremely responsive, easy to work with, and very detail-oriented throughout the entire process. Anytime I had questions, he was always available and served as a valuable resource.

What really stood out was his ability to work collaboratively with the other real estate company to ensure we achieved the best possible price for our home. He also helped us navigate and resolve smaller issues along the way, which made the process much smoother and less stressful.

Overall, I highly recommend Joe Karl to anyone looking for a knowledgeable, reliable, and dedicated real estate professional. - Okemo Mtn Home Seller

I couldn’t be happier with my experience working with Kathy Burns at William Raveis/VT Properties Team during a recent home purchase. Her advice and guidance were invaluable in helping us negotiate the price and navigate the inspection process. In addition, her knowledge of the community and relationships she has within the Ludlow area has been tremendously helpful as we prepare to move in. Hands down, a wonderful experience.
