Karen Silk was a fantastic broker. Fantastic! I never would have asked for the price she suggested, and which we got. Karen also spent many hours handholding the new owner. She advised me every step of the way and was truly a blessing to work with. Deeply knowledgeable, warm and professional. Est. of Collette Wynn

So the ship has come home! This is to thank you for so much more than being a wonderful, efficient, and successful Realtor agent, for you have been a dear friend to us both and especially through the last few weeks. The care you have taken of us, the comfort and support you have given to Barbara at difficult times, and the calm confidence you radiate have all belonged to a very special lady who wants something to be right and happy for everyone concerned. It has been a privilege to work with you and we thank you for everything. John H

Karen Silk was the seller’s agent on the house my husband and I bought in 2016. Every step of the way, Karen was a total pro and a class act. Her experience in and knowledge of Litchfield County is amazing and really sets her apart. Ellen Barrett

Karen Silk is to be recommended without reservation. She worked tirelessly and professionally to find the perfect country house for my wife and me. Her knowledge of the process was flawless, her patience and good humor at every turn were exceptional. My wife and I have bought many houses and put our experience with Karen at the top of the list.
