Dear Mrs.Crouse,
In the 50 years I have been acquiring and selling the homes I've lived in, you are the most consciencous and thoughtful real estate broker I have ever encountered. What impressed me most was your attention to detail and how you were always on top of every potential drawback up until the final closing.
Cordially,
Lewis E. Kaplan

Hi Russell,
I wanted to let you know that I haven't forgotten your request for help with your house search. Right now, I'm completely swamped with the work of moving out of this house and completing construction on our new home. But I wanted to pass along the name of the best buyer's broker working in the Westport and Weston markets. In over 10 years in real estate, I
have never seen a realtor give the quality of time, energy, attention and expertise to buyer clients that she does. Her name is Laurie Crouse She is not even with my agency, but her service is so outstanding, I wanted to pass along her contact information in case you want to continue to look at homes. She can be reached at 984-8154 (her cell #) or via e-mail at LaurieBCrouse@aol.com. I hope this is a help - and best of luck.
Regards,
Victoria
It's a new year, and John and I wish you all the best for 2007. This thank you note is long overdue with our move finally done, I have been thinking about this past year and the role you played in it.
Beginning with your first visit to our house to meet with us to discuss working together, culminating with the closing; your professionalism, warmth and caring was always constant. Laurie, you have the gift to make your client feel that they are your number one priority at all times. That nothing they ask of you is too great a task; no request, question, doubt, change of mind or heart is too demanding or bothersome.

As you may be aware, the real estate market in the Connecticut
marketplace is extremely difficult given the heavy demand
and tight supply. This was our first home purchasing experience
and we can not tell you how well Laurie Crouse represented

If you are looking for a real estate broker
in the Westport area, we can tell you about our recent experience
with Laurie Crouse, a realtor.
Laurie was helpful from day one, with advice
and practical solutions to several serious and even complicated
legal problems everyone goes through whether buying or selling
a house. There was never a problem: she was there day, nights,
weekends. Whether we needed a plumber or carpenter, or an
electrician or needed zoning regulations, she knew.

Laurie is so personable and knowledgeable;
she made the whole experience of finding and buying our
first home less scary. She is really familiar with the area
and she listened to what we wanted, so we never wasted our
time looking at places that didn't suit our needs or taste.
I would recommend her to anyone looking to buy a home in
Fairfield County.

We are writing to express our thanks for the hard work and
service provided by one of your outstanding real estate professionals.
As you may be aware, the real estate market in the Connecticut
marketplace is extremely difficult given the heavy demand
and tight supply. This was our first home purchasing experience
and we can not tell you how well Laurie Crouse represented
your organization. Her hard work and dedicated involvement
is the only reason we were able to survive what turned out
to be an emotional roller-coaster. We experienced bidding
wars, deceitful real estate brokers, people not honoring agreements
and various other unpleasant incidents. Through this nightmare,
Laurie consoled, motivated and reassured us that she would
be able to successfully find us a great home. We would like
to list some of the "little" things she did for
us:
- Spent uncountable hours driving us from house to house
- Patiently waited while we arduously examined the minutest
details of about 40 homes
- Frequently watched our 1 1/2 year old daughter thereby
allowing us free time to explore homes and properties
- Aggressively pursued and apprised us of homes that might
be suitable (we are very selective)
- Called in numerous times from"vacation" to keep
abreast of events that developed into the ultimate purchase
of our home.
My wife and I would like to thank your organization for making
the purchase of a home possible through the endeavors of Laurie
Crouse and her associates at Coldwell Banker - Riverside Shavell.

To whom it may concern:
If you are looking for a real estate broker
in the Westport area, we can tell you about our recent experience
with Laurie Crouse, a realtor.
We were, by sheer accident, in a complicated
series of real estate deals; We wanted to buy a particular
Condo, very briefly available and at the same
time we had to dispose of our long-loved house at 84
Bayberry Lane in which we lived for many years. (Our children
were born and grew up in Westport.)
Laurie was helpful from day one, with advice
and practical solutions to several serious and even complicated
legal problems everyone goes through whether buying or selling
a house. ( A house is a major, most costly purchase
one makes in a lifetime.) There was never a problem:
she was there day, nights, weekends. Whether we needed a
plumber or carpenter, or an electrician or needed zoning
regulations, she knew.
She was also up to the minute on what was
selling at what price. More important, she knew/knows exactly
what comparable houses were selling at, and what buyers
were paying, and why.
In short, if you want a professional on your
side whether buying or selling a home, we seriously recommend
Laurie for her unflagging efforts, wisdom, even compassion
mixed with judgment, during some stressful moments in the
sales process that almost everyone goes through.

Dear Laurie,
It's a new year, and John and I wish you all the best for 2007. This thank you note is long overdue with our move finally done, I have been thinking about this past year and the role you played in it.
Beginning with your first visit to our house to meet with us to discuss working together, culminating with the closing, your professionalism, warmth and caring was always constant. Laurie, you have the gift to make your client feel that they are your number one priority at all times. That nothing they ask of you is too great a task; no request, question, doubt, change of mind or heart is too demanding or bothersome. That is how John and I
felt throughout our partnership with you this last year. Your expertise and advice was
right on every time and your capacity to listen to our needs and always consider them
first made such a difference in what was at times, a stressful and emotional journey. John
and I always felt completely comfortable and confident with you at the helm. You have such a depth of understanding of the real estate business plus a personal style that is warm and winning. Also, we thank you for generosity in referring us to the best real estate lawyer, mortgage broker, and building contractor. This kind of knowledge, service, expertise and heart only comes with incredible experience plus a breadth of respect and care for people and the business itself.
Laurie, you are one in a million. And John and I think you ought to be the one teaching the course " How To Be a Truly Effective and Ethical Realtor"!
Thank you for all your work and total commitment in getting our house sold.
I miss you, my friend and think of you often.
Love, Linda
