Catherine Richardson answered:
Dear Theresa,
Lenox Avenue is a lovely street in the Glenbrook section of Stamford. Yes, it is near Darien, but it is also mid-way between I-95 and the Merritt Pkwy, and walking distance to Metro North RR station. You are 10 minutes to vibrant downtown Stamford. Schools are most likely (I would need a specific address for exact schools) Stark (elementary), Dolan (middle) and Stamford High. I have had (and do have) clients that live in the area, and they tell me that they feel safe, and believe that there is pride of ownership among the homeowners. I would be happy to answer any other specific questions you may have. Lots of Luck : - ) !! - Mon Nov 10 2008, 09:01

Dear Carla,
When I show properties, I give priority to the people who support Realtors -- that is, homeowners who respect us enough to hire us to represent their home to the marketplace. Why do you expect agents to support a FSBO when there are so many "Realtor-represented" properties on the market? In my opinion (and the opinion of many of my associates), FSBOs are amateurs looking to save money on a commission without realizing how much money they are actually losing. They are penny-wise and pound-foolish. (In Keith's response, he gives you fantastic statistics). FSBOs are unrealistic, unsophisticated and most don't know what they're doing.
Realtors are professionals who support their families by selling real estate -- this is not a hobby! The fact that you are offering a 3 1/2% commission and not hearing from any agents just goes to show you that Realtors are not just greedy, quick-sale people who put their own interests before their clients' interests. (Most) Realtors are honest, hard-working, genuine salespeople who are trying to help their clients make the right choice in their choice of a home. We are not looking to just make a quick buck on a higher commission. Why are you no longer a Realtor? Hmmmmmmmmmmm..................... - Wed Oct 15 2008, 18:20

Absolutely! I can either sign you up for a Listing Book account and/or you can go on my website for the same type of service. Where are you "just looking" - Greenwich? Stamford? Fairfield County?

Yes, this house is listed by my office. Please let me know if you would like to get together -- it is a new home with plenty of space on a relatively busy road. - Tue Sep 23 2008, 12:25
