Peggy is amazingly thorough and we could relax knowing that every detail was being taken care of. During the actual sale, she timed the open house showings perfectly to capitalize on a hot market. When many offers came in, she tirelessly negotiated with dozens of different of parties to assure that we got not only an incredible price but very attractive terms. We can't recommend Peggy and her team enough for making our sale a successful and seamless experience.

I would without hesitation recommend Karen and The Peggy Patenaude Team looking to buy or sell.

Through it all, Colleen remained a steady source of positivity and reassurance. She was always reachable when we needed her, no matter the time or circumstance. Her responsiveness and calm demeanor gave us confidence when we needed it most. What impressed us most was her honesty.
