To Whom It May Concern,
In the Fall of 2007 I worked with Tom Braunagel on both the sale of our then current home and the purchase of a new home. Tom did an excellent job representing us on both ends, and I’d like to share some thoughts on the experience.
When evaluating brokers Tom presented himself quite professionally. He indicated that he would be honest with us at all times, would aggressively market our home and would aggressively carry out the search on the buy end. That proved to be the case. When we discussed our plans for our home sale, Tom encouraged us to follow a strategy that worked within the constraints of the slowdown at hand, and yet got us a fair price for the home. His advice covered pricing, timing, positioning and presentation. We had regular reviews of our status, and modified our approach as time and new information dictated. The house was marketed aggressively, sold quickly (given the market conditions) and closed smoothly.
On the buy side Tom was effective in pairing our requirements with the available inventory, represented us well during negotiations and, through his network of mortgage, legal and contractor associates, made the transition easy.
Throughout his efforts were professional, friendly and effective. He displayed creative marketing skills, ‘thinking out of the box’. He negotiated firmly, but fairly, and got both transactions completed in significantly less time than the market average. He knows the local market, and when he’s not sure of an issue/point, he studies up quickly.
I would not hesitate to recommend Tom to any perspective buyer or seller in Fairfield County.

To Whom It May Concern:
It has been a pleasure working with Tom Braunagel as my real estate agent this past year. When we discussed a possible listing of my house in Huntington last July, I asked Tom why I should list with him. Tom said his marketing was what differentiated him from others and that he sold houses in less than half the time others did. After agreeing to list with Tom last summer, he held 2 open-houses within the first few weeks, received 2 offers shortly after and we closed within 3 weeks of the final offer acceptance with the help of Tom’s excellent negotiation skills. WOW! These actions spoke louder than his words.
Tom’s competitive market analysis was very thorough and his pricing strategy for my house resulted in a very acceptable selling price after his negotiations. Tom’s advice in staging the house was very helpful and as I “painfully” starting removing some of the clutter, I kept repeating Tom’s words, “we’re selling space.” It worked!
Tom’s professionalism in the sell transaction led to our asking him to represent me and my fiancé in buying a house and the possibility of selling my fiancé’s condominium after we bought a house. Tom again provided excellent customer service which resulted in our buying and closing on a house in Fairfield within a short time. Tom provided excellent mediation services with a mortgagor in a situation that became unprofessional. Tom offered moving assistance, and provided us with excellent resources for both moves.
Once we moved into the house, Tom again used his professional marketing abilities and listed and sold the condominium in a down market. Again, he fairly priced the property and negotiated with the buyers for a reasonably quick sale.
I would highly recommend Tom Braunagel to represent buyers and sellers in future real estate transactions.
Sincerely,
Rose Bednarz

| Dear Tom, Thank you for helping us find our first home. After I had called several realtors who were all too busy to get back to us, we called you. To our surprise, you actually answered your phone on a Friday night and took the time to listen to what we wanted, and looked into other options for us. You followed up and took us to see several listings that met our criteria and several more the next day. We really do appreciate your exceptional dedication to your clients... we found our home in just two days. You and all of your staff were very helpful and friendly every step of the way. Thank you. We are settling into our new home and we are so happy, it really is the perfect house for our family. We are so thankful to you for helping us find it. This has been our dream for 5 years and it finally happened and we thank you for helping us to get here. Sincerely, Keith and Meghan Wanser |

I would highly recommend Tom Braunagel and Keller Williams Realty as your realtor. I have moved 4 times in the last 10 years with my company and Tom has been the best I have worked with. When selling or buying a house I look for an agent that does thorough market research with the expectation that he will price my house to get the best price for a quick and timely sale. Throughout the period of the sale, Tom used every possible means to market the house, from the internet to word of mouth in order to reach all potential buyers. Tom’s market research was accurate and did not end with just the initial study - he continued to update us on the current market as houses came on the market or were sold.
Tom provided services above and beyond those expected of most agents. When we had to move to Virginia two months before we closed on the house, he handled all the inspections and arranged for all of the repairs in our absence until the house sale had closed. Having a strong agent willing to do what it takes to complete the sale, allowed my family to move on to our new life with the confidence that we were well represented in Trumbull, CT. John Suddreth |
