    Bought a Single Family home in 2013 for approximately $300K in Woodstock, CT.
    John Downs was a great help in finding and negotiating the dream house purchase we were looking for. He was willing to let us investigate some properties that were off the beaten path and was very helpful in refining our search, He's a very good guy.

    Bought a Single Family home in 2010 for approximately $300K in Sterling, CT.
    John helped my husband and me buy our first home and we didn't have a clue about the home buying process. John was so patient, informative, and a big comfort to us because we never felt like he didn't have time for us or our questions. He was never late for an appointment, always returned phone calls the same day if not within the same hour, and consistently kept us updated on property listings and referrals for individuals such as inspectors and attorneys. He never made us feel as if we were bothering him or that he was simply trying to make a sale, but he always made us feel like we were important and that his number one goal was to make us happy- which he definitely succeeded in. We love our first home and the experience we had working with John. The best part about him is he doesn't forget about you once his sale is complete. Two years later, he still stays in contact and we frequently get mailings from him for things such as home anniversary congratulations. I would never recommend anyone other then John-he's the best!!!More Less

    Consider Living in the beautiful town of Woodstock CT. Woodstock, Connecticut is considered part of the "Quiet Corner." It is known for its "tranquility, history and pastoral beauty," according to the guidebook 1,000 Places to See Before You Die. Conveniently located between Boston, New York, Hartford, Providence and the shoreline, we're close to all the excitement yet with a quieter atmosphere, hence the "Quiet Corner" in what is known as The Last Green Valley. Woodstock is located in the northeastern corner of Connecticut. Area-wise, it is actually the second largest town in CT. Our population is still small (7,860 residents as of August 2006) but growing. Woodstock CT is a rural, historic community with an agricultural background. Woodstock has more operating dairy farms than any other town in CT. Support for open spaceconservation, the farming community, and education (including special education) is strong.
