Testimonials

Benjamin just completed an appraisal report on a 1700's home in a small CT town that had little property sales data available. When comparable properties are unavailable, the appraiser must think outside the box and has to analyze and report on the property carefully. Benjamin's attention to detail and willingness to go the extra mile showed in his efforts to establish value on this very difficult subject. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend Ben for any residential appraisal that required more than the usual amount of effort and creativity.

-Kirk Hagert, Senior Mortgage Analyst, Northpoint Mortgage, September 2009

Very accomadating. Great attention to detail. Showed us every investment oppurtuniy and was very knowledable. Always there for us when he was needed. This was the 7th house I have purchased and by far the smoothest thanks to Benjamin. He will definitely be the first and only realtor we will call for my next real estate venture.

-Don & Francine B, Meriden, December 2009

We met Benjamin Shoemaker when we were looking to downsize our current home. He was recommended by our mortgage lender. I purchased 3 previous homes (all houses) over the years--and my wife has bought two--so we had a lot of experience with real estate agents. Benjamin is, by far, the best agent we've dealt with. He is knowledgable, highly experienced, and dedicated to you as his client. his responsiveness exceeded our expectations. He has a calming influence during some very tense moments (e.g. seller moved up the closing date at the last minute, leaving us with no place to go for a week until we closed on the home, etc).

-Wayne & Rita C, Meriden, April 2010

Benjamin was a valuable asset in the purchase of our home. His communication, knowledge, and charisma makes him an excellent realtor. I will never hesitate to pass his name on to anyone looking for anything real estate related. I can't say enough good things about him, use him for your real estate needs and you can guarantee you will be impressed!

-Dave G, Wallingford 2010

Benjamin J Shoemaker is a very competent real estate agent that cares very much for his clients. He used his experience to guide us through every step of our purchase. He is a great problem solver and he followed through with every request or concern. We would highly recommend Ben as a real estate agent.

-Amanda & Tom D, Middletown, June 2010

Benjamin came highly recommended by a friend, so I decided to check him out. I was apprehensive as he is an investor and real state agent. I found him very pleasant, smart and easy to get along. I signed up with him immediately. During the course of the house search, Benjamin was prompt in responding, took the time to answering all our questions (even the stupid ones!) and was accomodating of our schedule. We were very impressed by his knowledge about house construction which came in very handy while evaluating some houses. Overall the experience was very good and I will highly recommend anyone to go with Benjamin in your search for a home. You will be in safe hands!
