“I have purchased seven homes in the tri-state area over the past 35 years and working with Irit Granger was certainly one of the best home buying experiences I have had. She was working as a dual agent in this last purchase and I had complete confidence in her expertise, knowledge of the area and market, and impartiality in the transaction. She was able to negotiate fairly with both parties and quickly complete the transaction. I was told by everyone in the area that she was the best, and I now share that opinion. I would highly recommend her to both buyers and sellers.”  Jon Bourassa

"Irit was a pleasure to work with both through the sale of our home in Washington as well as the purchase of our new home in Sherman. Her professional and knowledgeable approach to all aspects of our real estate transactions coupled with her caring personality provided us with the feeling that we were being taken care of by a true friend. Her patience and guidance are unmatched and were absolutely invaluable while we approached the many “unexpected” elements that can often creep up while balancing the sale of one home and the purchase of another. We absolutely have found our lifelong agent and can confidently say she went above and beyond for us continuously. Irit’s experience and professionalism make her the ideal agent to guide you through every stage of your real estate needs with an unparalleled level of client devotion and attention to detail." - Kim and Tim Laughlin

“My husband and I attribute the sale of our unique home to Irit. We truly believe that she was instrumental in the sale from the very beginning.From the amazing photos of our home to the marketing then final negotiation of the sale. She managed every detail large and small. She was a true professional and a delight to work with at every stage of the listings and sale.” - Maribeth Winslow and Rob Nizolek

"Thanks to Irit we found a beautiful lakefront home in Sherman that seems as if it were custom built to our specific exacting expectations.  She had an uncanny ability to size up what we were seeking in a home, patiently stuck with us through our search, and ultimately made what we thought we would never find a reality.  She is beyond first rate. " - Ellen Archer and Jeffrey Gracer

Testimonials (25)

Thank you for all that you have done for us. You have made the sale of the house so smooth. You truly are an outstanding realtor.

Dale Hogan
Irit Granger was highly professional, courteous and experienced. I would certainly enthusiastically recommend her to anyone in the Sherman area buying or selling property. Martha Fleischman
With all that was going on the morning of the closing, I neglected to truly thank you for everything you did regarding the buying/selling of the Cozier Hill Road property. At first I was hesitant about using a dual agent. However, my initial concerns were immediately put to rest. You were fair, honest and totally above board with regard to the entire process. Obviously a real estate agent has to know about real estate values in the applicable market, and the positives and negatives of the property up for sale. But like most other professions, having a thorough knowledge of whatever field one is in is something all professionals, including real estate agents, should have (though I realize many don't). But in my opinion, just as important as having a real estate agent completely knowledgeable in real estate is having an agent that is totally honest and trustworthy who you can believe in. Throughout the process you were that person, and I'm sure John and Chris would totally agree. So thank you for dealing with me and all of my questions, since I only buy a new house once every 20+ years. And as I think you know, this property was the only house I looked after deciding that building in Kent was not for me, so you received the brunt of my question and concerns. So thank you, and I hope to see you around town. Bob Siegel
Smooth process! Michael Mustillo
The realtor who I chose to help sell my property was Ms. Irit Granger. Through our times together in preparing and going through the large steps of the sale, I can only say Ms Granger has been totally exemplary in her work. There were certain times when I was tested by the riggers of many people/buyers and their own situations - the ups and downs. Ms. Granger not once, had lessened her will to "keep on, keeping on". She was always so uplifting and supportive - being there for me at any time of day, keeping me totally informed and advised. The building I had for sale was a very different, therefore a somewhat difficult challenge. She took it on without any hesitation and didn't give up on the building until it sold. It was not easy. Ms. Irit Granger has surely proven herself to be one of the best - if not, the Best- I have witnessed it firsthand. Ms. Granger is a total asset to your Realty. Most Sincerely, Mark Winship Estabrooks Mark Estabrooks
Irit is a total professional does an outstanding job !! 24 Quaker Ridge Rd LLC
irit was great to deal with, a delightful bright and caring human being who happened to sell us a house David & Kathryn Burmon
It was an absolute pleasure to work with Irit Granger! We found her to be knowledgeable, professional, courteous, and always responsive. She took time to understand our needs and paid attention to the details. Her knowledge of the area and market conditions helped us narrow down, select and close on a great property. Since we were looking in an area unfamiliar to us, Irit provided constant guidance and looked out for our interests. There were many factors she brought up at each property we visited that we may not have considered. Overall, Irit is one of the best real estate brokers we have come across! We highly recommend her to anyone looking to buy or sell a home. Divya & Koustubh Jha
Thank you so much for representing us in the purchase of our dream lakefront property. Your balanced advice and insight on the local area, coupled with your willingness to go the extra mile to accommodate our unique needs resulted in an ideal partnership to facilitate the purchase transaction. We had a wonderful experience working with you on both a professional and personal basis. Tien-tsin & Anh-Van Huang
I am a fairly successful residential real estate broker in Manhattan who has bought and sold many houses and apartments over the past 30 years. Irit is head and shoulders above most brokers I've worked with. In today's tricky market, she helped us price our house to sell..in fact; we had a bidding war and went to contract slightly over the asking price. Kudos to Irit Granger for being an amazing source of accurate information and for being always available to this demanding seller. Richard Wallgren
If you need a real estate agent, Irit Granger is the best. She can and will do for you what no other agent will. She is very knowledgeable, patient, pleasant and an excellent communicator. She was instrumental in completing our transaction in good time. In other words, we were lucky to have had her for our agent. We will certainly use her services again. Onno and Melba Poppinga

Working with Irit has been an incredible experience. She turned a process that can be exhaustive and consuming into a pleasant and efficient one. And she did so in the most elegant fashion, by always focusing on our preferences, and by putting our interests first. Her professionalism was demonstrated in each step of the process, from exploring the area and assessing potential properties thoroughly all the way through the logistical aspects of our search and a very calm and highly effective negotiation. Irit possesses a very rare combination of skills: a deep understanding of the market along with very strong interpersonal skills. Her job with us did not finish with the closing - she made sure to guide us in each and every aspect needed to get our new house set up and running. We can confidently say that Irit became our go-to person for all our future real estate needs in the state of CT. Ilana Gross
I now have the home of my dreams, thanks to Irit Granger. Her patience and skillful guidance were absolutely essential in this admittedly scary real estate market. Her wise counsel and up-to-the- minute knowledge of how local markets were responding to an unpredictable economy helped me navigate smoothly from seller to buyer -- and both processes could not have gone more smoothly. In working with Irit, I soon found that along with her professional side, there is a charming, warm, enthusiastic woman who knows more about this beautiful corner of Connecticut than anyone, and she is eager to share all the history and contacts just for the asking. I am proud to recommend Irit as my Realtor, and I am honored to call her my friend. Candace Conard
Irit has done a wonderful job for us in selling our home. Not only is she conscientious, thorough and strategic in her selling process, but she also brings a graciousness and civility to a process that can sometimes get a tad testy in this market. She is also very responsive and in addition to selling our CT home, she advised my husband and me in our negotiations in Colorado. She's very intelligent, has a good sense of the market and her clients needs, and works with integrity to bring about outcomes that satisfy all parties. Betsy Thomas and John Brantley
Ben and I feel so lucky to have worked with Irit. We are in awe of her ability to handle so many details and hassles and to still be this wonderful, charming person. It seemed that each time things got a bit crazy, she knew just how to proceed and smooth it all out. None of our questions went unanswered, and the fact that she was so available and devoted so much attention to us made us forget that we were not her only clients. Now that the deal is done, we will miss being in touch with her each and every day, but we know that she will be a regular guest in our home. Ben and Lisa Bilbrough
Irit is, hands down, the most efficient, pleasant and classiest real estate professional we have ever worked with. She is a great listener who puts her clients' preferences above all, and respects the guidance she is given while adding tremendous value throughout the process. Avi Rosenthal
Irit Granger was by far the best realtor I and my husband ever worked with. She was extremely knowledgeable about the area she covers and was always honest about the features of each home we viewed, both positive and negative. Irit Granger represents the best of what a real estate agent should be. Al and Roz Zeisler
We want to thank you yet again for all that you've done for us....yes, finally reaching this successful outcome yields pleasure & relief!! You're a true master at what you do and we honor you that you are! We can see that with your vast panorama for the various houses and regions that you extend yourself with is truly something to be admired...talk about dedication to the nth! Your name will definitely be an 'on-going' on our Referral list! Gail
Sometimes in life you just get lucky! That's how Ted and I feel about what happened when we called you based on one of your ads in a local paper. You guided our search for a weekend home with professionalism, knowledge, care and graciousness. We were amazed at your willingness to help us in everything from sharing the names of local contractors to spending your precious time allowing them to visit the house to estimate the work needed -- even when we couldn't get there! You negotiated on our behalf with confidence and skill. As we look ahead to our time in Sherman, we especially look forward to spending social time together. You are more than one could ever hope for in a real estate broker and in a person! Debora Grobman and Ted Schlissel
Irit's enormous skill was a tremendous help in the purchase of this house in 2000 and the sale in 2013. She is extremely thorough with all the necessary items for purchase and sale of the house. She is extremely intelligent with a wonderful personality. I heartily recommend her in any similar position. Stanley Malkin
Irit is an exceptional agent in every respect. She is knowledgeable in all aspects of the buying and selling of a home and always readily responsive and willing to help with even the slightest detail. My purchase was long-distance from California, where procedures are different from those in Connecticut, so Irit shouldered many responsibilities on my behalf. She was reliably agreeable to taking on tasks, troubleshooting, scheduling appointments and jobs to be done, and following up on the progress of each transaction. All in all, she was an adept guide through the twists and turns of my bicoastal relocation and a constantly friendly partner in the process. I highly recommend her to anyone seeking a real estate professional. Cynthia Osborne
Irit Granger is the quintessentially empathetic and committed real estate professional. She accepted a very challenging assignment, made a number of decisions to create conditions, which would be acceptable for a buyer, and then patiently and assiduously matched the right family to the house. All along the way, Irit stayed in touch, communicated with a number of maintenance providers, made the complexity seem simple. To underscore how unusually trustworthy Irit is, you need to know that I live 3,500 miles away, did not meet Irit until just before the closing. We probably had 150 interactions, and there was not a missed step. Irit is a rare person, and I am very happy that we finally met, and are now friends. Mark Linder
