Dear Paul, Jon Arruda, what is there to say that you don’t already know about Jon. Jon is a true professional in every sense of the word, who took care of Barbara and me when we purchased our new home in Niantic, CT and then sold our older home in Norwich, CT. Jon was outstanding in keeping us in the loop at every turn and made our transitions very smooth. If I needed to be in combat, I would want Jon in my foxhole! Thank you and give Jon our best! Sincerely, Greg Sinay • 203-213-5795 (Cell) • 9/27/2023 Greg and Barbara Sinay and Lynch

Jon was exceptional. His research was timely and accurate, his knowledge of the market was intimate and thorough and his advice and counsel were ‘spot-on’. He has been a valued adviser and friend for years and we will always refer our acquaintances to Jon for real estate matters. Lee Farland

Everything went smoothly. There were no surprises. I think I got good advice from the realtor and my building sold quickly. William Cambridge

Jons Knowledge of commercial real estate puts our company at such a competitive edge when buying and selling. Very Pleased as usual. School Place Properties LLC

From the first conversation to the closing, any day of the week, Jon was there for us. He provided wise counsel in some tricky negotiations, was present to open the house for all manner of inspections and repairs, offered contact information for tradesmen, and was generally organized, efficient, and always friendly. I'd recommend him for sure! Jeffrey Cole

Jon was incredibly patient, knowledgeable and helpful with this transaction. He clearly knows what he's doing and put my needs first in regards to this sale. curtiswillbanks

We were relocating from VA to CT and had no idea what we were doing. It was a super last minute military move due to the pandemic and we had a very small window of time to find a place to live. Jamie worked with our limited time frame and helped us coordinate and get through the hectic process of purchasing a home In CT when we thought we weren’t going to be able to. We are very thankful that we had her and her expertise during this move and home purchase. zuser20200310141549244

Jamie was exactly what you would want in a realtor-- Not pushy, but not aloof. She did a great job letting us set the pace for our house hunting, and she was so helpful with the process. She was an absolute joy to work with! zuser20161016132356142

Jamie did a outstanding job with our listing. By far the best experience I’ve ever had with a realtor. Listing was impressive and had a buyer immediately. I would highly recommend Jamie Bresnan at Arruda! Jonorr774

Jon, made home buying fun. Before I worked with Jon, I'd get anxiety over the whole process. Research, open houses, agents just out to make a buck. After calling Jon, all that changed. Jon genuinely cared. He showed us some places to get an idea of what we liked. Then the listings started coming. All tailored to what we were looking for. The whole process was smooth from start to finish. And even after we closed. He still finds time to make sure we are still happy. Jon and the whole Arruda Real Estate family really did make this a stress free experience. Thank you so much for helping us find our happy ever after. whaleheader

Jon was very knowledgeable and gave great input/feedback on the properties we considered. He put in the extra effort to make sure we found the property of our dreams. I highly recommend! Rickman8812

Wonderful transaction, Jon is truly so knowledgeable about the entire process of selling real estate. Jane Arruda Estate of

Jon is extremely knowledgeable in the commercial and investment market and we have entrusted him with several large commercial transactions over the past years. School Place Propertie, LLC

I cannot recommend Jon highly enough - he brought a relaxed yet confident expertise and professionalism to my home search. While he was extremely knowledgeable about the local market and acceptable prices, I was most impressed by his experience as it related to the structural and mechanical aspects of my house. In addition to highlighting any flaws with the wiring and plumbing in my home, he was able to communicate the future problems I should pay attention to.

Jon was able to set realistic expectations and negotiated a fantastic price for my house - I highly recommend him - especially to anyone who feels as uncertain as I felt! zcleary

While professional, Jon seemed to truly care about helping me make the biggest move of my lifetime. I am relocating from West to East coast to be with my daughter and her family. I would highly recommend Jon. Cindy Goff

I have to say that working with Jon Arruda has been the best experience in real estate that we’ve had over the last 40 years you should be proud to have him represent this cooperation Leo Labbe

Wonderful experience, couldn’t be happier with Jon and his knowledge of the shoreline market. School Place Properties LLC

Jon was excellent from start to finish. He made a normally stressful thing, during an extra stressful time, much less stressful overall. He helped push things along every step of the way without us needing to ask and helped us feel comfortable as possible at every step of the process. Nathan Pierre

John is absolutely amazing. School Place Properties LLC

Kathy helped me find my dream home in a tough market. We saw a lot of houses at the peak of the market from April to June 2021 and made several offers that were not accepted ... thank goodness because I finally found the one. I appreciated how she changed our approach when we didn't get a property, using what we learned from one experience to make a better offer at the next one. She was also a great advocate for me and made sure my questions and concerns were answered in a timely way. Her directness, non-nonsense demeanor, and honesty gave me a lot of confidence and at the same time, she got excited about properties that we both liked. Since I was looking by myself, it was nice to have an enthusiastic partner. She never pushed me to try and like a place that I didn't and was amazingly patient after a lot of viewings! She was prompt, wrote offers quickly, a great communicator, was friendly with the sellers' agents (which helped us get more nuanced information), and when we found the house I finally bought, we both realized how perfect it was and she gave me excellent counsel on how to make the winning offer. Mine was one of nine offers (including an all cash!) and I got it. There is no question that I will reach out to Kathy again when I am ready to look for my next property and I would highly recommend her to anyone. zuser20160812070710709

Lindsey is very reliable, committed, detailed and a prestige individual who helps her clients professionally in finding their dream house. Even though sometimes it was rough looking for a house, Lindsey kept encouraging me not to give up, 'We will find the right one!' Hilma R

Lindsey made every effort possible to help me find my new home. When the right house finally came on the market, she was so willing to reach out and ask questions I couldn’t. She not only helped to move the mortgage process forward, she kept on top of everything. I felt so confident and at ease. I closed on my home within 37 days! It was the best experience ever. I kept wondering why it was such a hassle in the past? A year before finding Lindsey I spent 4 months trying to get a loan closed with another realtor who was supposed to represent me. I confidently recommend Lindsey to anyone looking for a home! njv8tk8dt2

The best of the best! Has awesome availability, very knowledgeable and was very helpful to have being a first time home buyer. Even after the sale she was open to answering questions and helping! Tyler W

Kathy was such a great resource and dedicated professional for us during our house hunting experience. She reached out daily via texts, emails, or phonecalls and was always very receptive to showing any and all properties that we asked about. Once we bid on our dream house, she walked us through the whole process from P&S agreement, to home inspection, and everything in between. She tenaciously followed up on the home inspection recommendations and really made us feel as thought she was truly there for us. I highly recommended Kathy to anyone interested buying (or selling) a home. Thank you. Susan C. susancartier

Kathy helped us sell our house and get into a new house that is perfect for us. Was great at getting our house sold and then took us to any house we asked about and recommended others we hadn’t seen yet. Was helpful and responsive throughout the whole process. Highly recommend! RyanHood3

My husband and I have now worked with Kathy twice. She has helped us both buy and sell a house and we have been very lucky to have found her. She was so helpful throughout both experiences in making sure that everything went smoothly from start to finish (even AFTER closing when we realized a few items were left behind!). She was very knowledgeable about the area, which we were new to, and was able to give us recommendations for everything from plumbers to restaurants. We would absolutely recommend working with Kathy. zuser20160929125926718

If you're thinking about buying a home strongly recommend Kathy she knows the area, is readily available at all hours which was nice for an active duty servicemember to work with, and makes you feel like a priority. TomPiscopo

Very knowledgeable, positive, and a delight to work with as explored buying property. We shifted from building to buying and Kathy's assistance was invaluable throughout the process. suegabrielse

We found a home we knew we wanted. Immediately it had multiple offers. With Kathy’s hard work and our scrambling like mad- from home sale to accepting our offer took place in 48 hours. That’s the kind of realtor Kathy is! DianePeske

Had a great experience with Alexcia, she was super flexible and willing to show you anything you want. Knowledgeable about the properties and genuinely wants to help you find what you’re looking for :) jramirez2336

Third house I’ve closed with Lindsey. She is energetic and filled with good honest advice about home buying. Consistently available to show me a multitude of properties and super easy to work with! alvesjason2

Alexcia provided my husband and I with a professional, knowledgeable and personable service as our realtor when we bought our home!

We would highly recommend her and Arruda realty to anyone looking to buy or sell! janisnurse1

Kathy was a pleasure to work with. She was responsive, flexible, patient, and would represent us when we couldn’t be there. She also knew the communities that we were interested in. We highly recommend Kathy. John R

Alexcia made it more than easy for my boyfriend and I to buy our first home. Any house we were interested in, we were looking at that day. If we had any questions, anything at all we could message or call and she would answer so quickly. When it came down to making an offer, she gave us great advice that ended with us closing on our lovely home. Lexi is more knowledgeable, straightforward but more than anything she made us feel like her first priority and not once through the whole experience did we feel stressed or overwhelmed. She is amazing! I would buy any home as long as she is by our side. crandall e

Kathy was an incredible help with our relocation to Mystic. She shared her knowledge of the area with us. She was incredibly prompt with calls, texts and emails. We will definitely hire her again if we ever move but we don't think we will any time soon because she helped us find a perfect home. egburkes

Alexia was fantastic! She found us a home that fit our needs and beyond. She returned calls promptly answered my question and concerns. She is very good at her job and truly cares about finding a home that best suits your family! I would Highly recommend her! ismileileen

Lindsey has been an amazing realtor and found me the home of my dreams!! From the start she treated me as her priority and was always available when I needed her. Lindsey successfully navigated me through a challenging sale on my house and same day purchase of my new home. She worked seamlessly behind the scenes to make sure everything got done. Lindsey’s demeanor was always cheerful and her positivity kept me at ease during this stressful time. laurapaneczko 1

As I began working with Lindsey she was always very communicative with me about what needed to be done and always had a game plan. Some people help you because they have to, but Lindsey went above and beyond for me (and my house) in order to get everything where it needed to be. Thank you Lindsey! zuser20141022125446510

We couldn't have asked for a better agent. Lindsey made herself available to us whenever we had a request. She kept us up to date on everything. she made the process so much easier for us. Whoever gets her as an agent will definitely get a real professional who takes the time to get know your needs and then puts time in to meet those needs. Can't thank her enough. riyank04

Jamie was my agent for my recent home sale and purchase, and honestly, I couldn't have been happier. Jamie was extremely helpful and handled everything very professionally, while maintaining a personal and friendly relationship. Everyone knows how stressful it is to buy and/or sell a home, but Jamie truly made it much less stressful for me. She answered all my questions very quickly and let me know right away if I needed to do anything. I would most definitely recommend Jamie to my family & friends. Sheri K

We were impressed with the extremely professional, friendly and caring approach to the sale of our previous home. This included being ahead of time for showings with fast and detailed feedback on potential buyer's comments. Always available and accessible during the sale and the purchase of our new home. We also received superior negotiating advise for selling and buying. Having bought and sold 6 homes in our lifetime we recommend the Arruda agency very highly. THEY ARE THE BEST we have encountered ! rebelrob27ga

I highly recommend Arruda Realty. Jon and Heather were amazing and made a difficult situation with the sale of my home a wonderful experience. I received full price for my home with their kind and compassionate help. A year later Heather work tirelessly with me to find my dream home. I highly recommend them!!! elliemorano

I worked with Heather Sawyer and I can’t say enough wonderful things about my experience with her. She was on top of everything, she was authentic and represented my best interest. I would recommend using Arruda Realty to anyone that is looking for someone who will advise them and work to help them find the home of their dreams. hgatchek2

Jamie did a outstanding job with our listing. By far the best experience I’ve ever had with a realtor. Listing was impressive and had a buyer immediately. I would highly recommend Jamie Bresnan at Arruda! Joanne N

I can’t describe in enough words how much Jamie was so supportive and great throughout this process. Her support for wanting to make me and my family feel so comfortable during this stressful process was 100% phenomenal. Jamie was always on top of things and didn’t mind viewing multiple listings. She never ever gave up on me and my family and any time she came across a property that she felt would match my wants she would text me and email me the link to view it. Jamie is really passionate about her career in real estate and is 100% for the people. She never made me feel like I was asking to many questions and she never made me feel like a bother. Hands down I would recommend her to anyone who is looking to buy a home/sell a home. I promise you that you won’t be disappointed. zuser20181004160809442

Could not ask for a better agency to represent us. Realtor Agent Heather Sawyer from John's office was exceptional in her attention to details, her photographs of the house gave the house a spirit of its own and she was very sensitive to our concerns. Heather was always available to answer questions for us as we navigated through the paperwork for the sale of the house. Extremely meticulous in every aspect of the sale. We could not have been more pleased with the service and the friends we have gained. pporter027

Jon was very knowledgeable and gave great input/feedback on the properties we considered. He put in the extra effort to make sure we found the property of our dreams. I highly recommend! Rick D

Jon's knowledge, expertise & professionalism was unparalleled during the short time our house was on the market. He sold our home in five days, which in this market is extremely rare. Jon and his team were a pleasure to work with from start to finish. They do everything they can to make sure they meet every client's needs in finding or selling a home. They treat all parties with respect and will strive to do anything to get the deal done. Arruda Real Estate Associates definitely leads the business in this area and sets the bar high. sullivanfamily8363

Jon was my agent for my first home buying venture. Jon's knowledge of the market and surrounding areas immediatley put me at ease. I was obviously extremely nervous and overwhelmed by what I assumed would be an arduous process. Jon's level headedness and constant feedback made the whole experience painless. I got the house of my dreams to start my family! Thank you Jon and thank you Arruda realty! user439786

The entire Arruda team led by Jon Arruda provide exemplary customer service through the stressful process of buying and selling a home. Jon is professional and thorough. I will definitely call Jon and team again for future real estate needs. kakratz

The Arruda Real Estate Team who worked with my husband and I recently was outstanding! Throughout two separate closings this past year, we had extremely positive experiences with Jon and Heather. They had tremendous patience with us, helped with realistic expectations (we were buying properties that needed work), and they spent a tremendous amount of time negotiating for us. We sincerely felt like they were partners with us in this process and held our best interests as their own. We can't recommend them highly enough to others and will absolutely use them again in the future. chesp33

For the last two years our family has been looking at homes. After a number of ups and downs we finally found a realtor who listened to our needs in a home and our wants in a home. She took the time to show us a number of homes and revisit homes that were of interest. We were more than happy with Arruda real estate team who put our needs as a family in their best interest!. Stacilynn22

Excellent realtor! Was very helpful, attentive and knowledgable. He was on our side through the whole process. I would not hesitate to recommend Jon Arruda and his team lewinrebeca

its my pleasure to highly recommend Jon Arruda and his team. I have purchased and sold real estate in the past and he is by far one of the best agents i've worked with. He did a great job start to finish. We were not living in the home at the time, but he assisted us with selling our home by setting a price that was competitive in the market, being upfront and validating his opinions on facts as well as his extensive expertise. We were motivated but he made sure we weren't selling short, he was realistic in positioning our property within the market with a fair price to get as much attention as possible but also obtain the highest price for the home as possible. When we found an interested Buyer he was thorough and dedicated to bring the sale to fruition, always looking out for our best interest. We always felt like we were a priority. He was responsive and available to answer any questions we had, always getting back to us in a timely manner. Our property was not on the market very long, maybe a couple months and we sold quite close to our asking price and we also closed very quickly with no issues. We felt that we sold our home for a fair price and we were happy about it. I trust him and I would recommend friends and family to him for sure! I know you would be doing the right thing working with Jon, he is the utmost professional and he really cares about what he does! lpmaui

Working with Arruda Real Estate Associates was amazing. This was our first time buying a home and they made us feel so comfortable during the whole process. They were very professional but personable. Our real estate agent was very knowledgable and accommodating. She kept us informed of any changes or anything that we needed to do the whole time. I could not speak higher of the service that we received. It almost evened out the stress of actually buying our first house. Go talk to them today if you are in the market. user5585816

My husband works at Lowe's and met Jon there. After meeting Jon and talking with him, my husband suggested we use him as our agent when we decided it was time to buy a house. Jon Arruda and Heather Sawyer were an absolute pleasure to work with. They displayed total professionalism yet we feel we have friends for life. They always responded to any questions or concerns immediately and kept us up to date. When we found the house of our dreams, Jon's negotiating prowess helped us purchase it at the best possible price. We would not hesitate to recommend Jon and his team to anyone looking to buy or sell property. cardladyjan
