~ Q & A with Laurie ~


Why did you choose real estate as a career?

I very much enjoy meeting new people and helping them settle in a new house. I chose real estate as a career because I grew up moving a lot and still love the feeling of a fresh start.

What is your most memorable real estate transaction?

My most memorable transaction? It would have to be the opportunity to get to know Robert Redford, as a realtor and to sponsor him for membership at the Aspetuck Valley Country Club.

What do you wish you
knew when you bought
your first home?

When we bought our first home I was way too emotional. I loved it and I had to have it. Bad combo!

What do you also wish you
knew when you sold
your first home?

I wish that I had known then that we would not make money on all of our properties!

What is your favorite outing in the main communities
served by the KMS Team?

Westport—Compo Beach and Longshore Golf
Weston—Peter’s Market, Devil’s Den and Aspetuck Valley Country Club

And advice for your
selling client?

What's your advice to
your buying client?

Prioritize your wish list and realize that life is full of tradeoffs.
Try to take the emotion out of selling your home. You need to look at your home as a house and a commodity. You cannot underprice your home, but you can under expose it.
