In their own words...

We have been working with Sarah Peluso for years and I cannot recommend her highly enough. She helped us buy our first home, and many years later helped us sell the same home. Her knowledge of the market, comps, and understanding the best way to showcase our particular home for buyers was invaluable. She helped us navigate all the ins and outs of the process, and her availability and guidance helped us through the process with ease.

Our experience, first, of buying a condo and then of listing our home through Beth Stanway has been positive in every respect. Her manner of calm competence inspired our confidence in what was for us a major decision. Throughout, she demonstrated a sound knowledge of the Middlebury market and community, thereby bringing us through the purchasing and listing process smoothly and efficiently. Above all, she listened to our particular concerns and wishes, deftly accommodating them rather than pressuring us into a different direction. We gladly recommend her and IPJ without reservation.

Initially, my four siblings and I tried to sell our mother’s home without a realtor. We emptied the house, put in a new kitchen and repainted throughout. The house was about 1.5 miles from downtown Middlebury and had almost an acre of land with it and a two car garage. We were assured by everyone that it would go fast. Well, it didn’t go at all in 6 months. We were now in peak COVID restrictions and we were all tired of waiting for a buyer so we decided to go with a local realtor, Sarah Peluso, of IPJ Real Estate. Sarah walked through the property with us and came up with several reasonable suggestions. She also advised us about state regulations for selling properties such as the required connections for oil tanks and helped us out with the appropriate paperwork that would be necessary at the time of the closing. After making some of these changes, and with the completed forms and documentation in hand, the COVID restrictions eased up and We put the house on the market on a Friday and by Tuesday, we had 3 serious offers and closed before the summer began. We were beyond grateful and are Sarah’s biggest fans. You can’t go wrong with the personal attention, the professionalism and the effectiveness of Sarah Peluso and her associates at IPJ.

Very knowledgeable and well-connected firm! Easy and fun to work with amidst what can be a difficult process!

Recent sale of our commercial building was handled very professionally by Amey and her team. Communication was solid at every phase, and response time to questions or concerns was very fast. The initial listing work was excellent, and the building was promoted very well. I highly recommend IPJ Real Estate!

Amey Ryan of IPJ Realty has listed and sold three houses for us in 2003, 2012, and 2024. Her listings have always been well done. Our properties have sold at or near the listing price. We could not have asked for better service. We never needed to search for another realtor because we had complete confidence in Amey.

Sarah and Levi were so helpful. We were previously living in Maine and they were willing to FaceTime showings and tag team to accommodate our infrequent in-person visits. Our contract was also lengthy, since closing was scheduled 3 months out. During that time they were communicative, helpful and encouraging. We would highly recommend the team at IPJ!

I would like to thank Sarah, Jamie and Levi at IPJ Realty for all their help, patience, kindness and support from the moment I contacted them that I was interested in my new house, to working with the VA, my realtor, the lawyer and my questions and concerns about the house, etc., and communicating them with the seller. They made my experience as a first time home owner pleasant and exciting, and made me feel like one of the family. With your help I was able to buy the house of my dreams where I can make memories with my family and friends. Thank you for all that you have done on helping me fulfill my hopes and goals with this new home.

This purchase and closing was the easiest I've ever had and I've bought soooo many properties.  I think this was my 15th purchase - Thanks so much!

This was the best experience we have had in selling real estate.  Sarah was honest and always on top of things
