My family has known Brian since we were in Scouts together in the late ‘80s. He has always carried himself with professionalism, leadership, capability, and integrity. In 2024, when it came time for me to help my Mom transition out of her home of nearly 50 years, it was important to us to find an agent that I could partner with, and that she could trust. Brian checked both boxes. From the initial consultation (we hadn’t seen each other in decades), all the way through to post-closing, Brian was there to lead us through every step of the process. With a blend of expertise, experience, relatability, construction knowledge (which comes in handier than you’d think), preparedness, patience, and follow-through… he proved himself to be the perfect choice in real estate representation. Brian explained each step we took with a confidence that exhibited he’d done this a million times before, but also with an enthusiasm that showed he wasn’t bored with it. He held our hand when we needed it, and gave us a gentle push when we needed that. His go-to-market strategy proved extremely effective, and he was able to present us with multiple offers in a short time frame. He was with us through the counters, the inspection, the appraisal, and the closing. He had inside knowledge of the market, the lender, and the legal team, and we were able to utilize his business network to get the deal done. In the interim, he even found time to visit the property (which by then was vacated) and maintain the curb appeal.

Above was the review I intended to write of my experience with Brian, but then something happened that I will never forget. Less than 24 hours before our official closing, an unexpected medical emergency struck my family. It was an event that changed everything in our lives, but most notably, our ability to process the paperwork required to transfer ownership. There was a lengthy hospital stay involved, and things were touch and go for over a month. Brian managed his end of our unique situation the same way he manages everything else… with grace, humanity, communication, and empathy. He was able to hold all sides of the deal together, appeasing an anxious buyer, a distressed seller, a lender with expiring approvals, and the legal team from each camp with their own views of the situation. I assure you this was no easy task, and clearly one for which there is no formal training. Despite all of that, Brian simply handled it all.

Fast forward six months, and we are just coming up for air. Although things are not yet back to normal for my family, I take comfort in the fact that Brian was able to take us over the goal line, so that we could focus on the medical recovery in those months when it was most necessary. I’m convinced there isn’t another realtor we could have chosen that could have closed this deal under those circumstances. I couldn’t give higher praise to Brian Connolly, and will always be grateful for his services.

Finding a real estate agent/broker you can depend on to guide you in purchasing a home is not easy. Brian excelled above the rest, his knowledge and working well with all involved excited my expectations. Brian and his team proved to have what it takes, hard work, dedication and commitment to get the job done. Thanks Brian.

If you’re serious about finding the home of your dreams, this is the man to call. Brian is an incredibly professional, knowledgeable and personable individual. It was such a pleasure working with him. My lovely girlfriend and I jumped into the housing market not knowing anything, but found ourselves on the other side with a plethora of knowledge and confidence as well as a beautiful first home. I, personally, would absolutely recommend him to my family, my friends, and strangers alike. Brian, if you’re reading this, thank you again for making buying a house such an easy and enjoyable experience for Noël and I! We couldn’t have done it without you!

Brian was thorough, effective, and patient throughout the process of selling my house. He was consistently updating me on what was going on, next steps, and how to move forward. Additionally, he was the relator who had sold me the house, and in both experience working with him was excellent, professional, and done thoughtfully.

Brian is awesome to work with! We bought our first flip property through him and then he helped us sell it several months later. It was certainly a challenging experience but Brian was there to support us every step of the way!

My husband and I met Brian by looking for a house on Zillow. Brian is very friendly, personable, and knowledgeable Realtor. Being first time home buyers, he walked us through step by step answering every question we had. Fast forward to today, and we are looking at closing on our first house in a month. If you’re looking for a realtor, I 100% recommend this hard working realtor.
Thank you Brian for everything.

Highly recommend and would work with him again! Brian was so responsive and a great communicator all the way through the sale of my Mom's (my childhood!!) home. He got to work quickly, shared lots of info on the local (eastern Connecticut) market and steered us quickly toward a great offer. He was very knowledgeable and able to get us to a quick close, even with a property in probate. He was very compassionate and really listened to our needs during what could have been an emotional and stressful time.

i would highly recommend Brian to anyone in the market. he's extremely knowledgeable, and very patient! communication is key, as a new home buyer he explained everything in a way i could easily understand. he gets back to you very promptly and doesn't rush you with anything. House hunting with Brian made our experience fun, and fairly easy. He's always there to help, answer questions, or throw out any advice he can.

Where to start? Great experience from start to end. Buying from out of state, Brian was able to fit us in in our tight schedule, he was able to pick up what we would be interested in quickly and toured several properties.

Brian is knowledgeable, truthful, available, responsive and resourceful. His recommendations of people to work with from Inspectors to mortgage folks were all spot on.
