Meet Donna McDowell

Brett and Jenn: A huge and heartfelt thank you for everything you did to make our home-buying process happen - the seen and the unseen. You were both so incredible to work with through every stage of our journey. We can’t wait to start this new chapter. -L. K.

Judi has been a great help over the years. She has an easy going demeanor but also can help you make tough decisions and she'll fight to get you the right deal.

Mary Ann Lindwall is the best! She was thorough and professional and great to work with. She kept us apprised about available appointments and always let us know as soon as a new one came on the market. She was honest and forthright- no games.

Mira is the best! I worked with couple of different brokers before, but nobody cares as much as she does. She was very patient and helped me to find the best property for my dog boarding/daycare business. Thank You!

Mary Ann was exceptionally responsive and savvy helping me rent a home, especially facilitating a complicated negotiation with my landlord and setting that relationship off to a good start. Very thankful for her work.

We had the pleasure of working with Brett and Jenn when selling our house in Westport, and we couldn't be happier with the experience and outcome. They skillfully guided us through every step of the process, providing invaluable advice and insights at various stages of the process, that helped us make informed decisions. We were always kept in the loop, receiving timely updates and feedback from potential buyers. In the end, we achieved a fantastic result, and we couldn't have asked for a better team to work with. Brett and Jenn exhibited genuine care and enthusiasm for our goals, and it felt like they were invested in our success as much as we were...

Mary Ann and her team did a fantastic job selling my home in an unprecedented and challenged real estate market. Mary Ann’s experience, professionalism and thoroughness throughout the process made it happen. I highly recommend the Riverside Realty Group!

Sue is knowledgeable about the market and its direction. She is tireless and will work diligently to move a deal forward. And, she is low key and honest, a rare combination for a realtor. She was my agent in the sale of my long standing family home and the purchase of my new home.

Judi always conducted herself in a totally ethical and professional manner from the day we met her until the day we closed on our new home. She was informative, totally communicative and as, many brokers are not, she always acted as a strong advocate of ours' when we needed a strong arm to voice our position on matters. My wife and I have no qualms in referring our friends to her and writing this review on her behalf!

In the Spring of 2022, I was referred to a few top brokers in the Westport area. The Lieberman Team was highly recommended by people I trusted, and their outstanding record spoke for itself. Being an out-of-state resident and infrequently in Westport, I needed a team that could facilitate the preparation of the property to get listed on the market. Their research concerning price was well done and presented with necessary comparisons. During this process, not only did Brett and Jenn make their expert recommendations but they handled all the details by meeting the various subs to perform the clean-up needed. Brett and Jen took care of monitoring the ...

We couldn't have asked for more from Sue and Justine. Their professional integrity, knowledge, attention to detail and personal care at every step was amazing. We would highly recommend them after having such a great experience in purchasing our new home. It was our firm home purchase and they took extra time to ensure we were guided through each and every step. They are the only realtors we would ever work with again.

Rob was the exemplary agent in working diligently, professionally and very very patiently with us - specifically, he was invaluable/indispensable in helping us navigate the arduous process in searching for, finding, and constructing our dream house over a 2.5 year period. He was always responsive to our asks/needs and demonstrated detailed knowledge of the Westport market. Proof is in the proverbial pudding- we've worked with him twice and highly recommend him (selling/buying).

Mira is a professional at knowing what you're looking for and what is priced right or too high. She has gone above and beyond for my wife and from what any normal realtor would do to help get us into the home of our dreams. She makes her self available 24/7 and she is committed to helping you buy the home you want, not presssuring you to buy anything out of your budget. She treats you respectfully as people not as a sale or commission check. She is also punctual and never late. I recommend her to anyone buying a home.

We worked with Amanda to purchase our first home, and we were grateful to work with someone so knowledgeable and experienced! She knew the area well, consistently sent us new properties that fit our description, and was very flexible to accommodate our schedules to find times to see the properties. She was incredibly responsive to emails and calls/texts, and she provided assistance through each step of the process. We appreciated her honesty, guidance, and patience, and have already recommended her to friends and colleagues.

You have both been incredibly helpful in our home search. You are truly the only real estate broker I have ever liked or would recommend. -B.R.

After 40 plus years of living in the Hartford area, my husband and I began a 2 1/2 years search for a one-story living option in or near Westport. Suzanne was our "rock" during this journey. She diligently sought out options that met our criteria, analyzed the financial implications, and remained upbeat and positive throughout. She always provided analysis, printed packets for our review, and never pressured us in any way. When we finally found the perfect home, Suzanne was our advocate with the sellers and their agents. The process was seamless and not stressful knowing that she had our backs. We unconditionally recommend Suzanne!

Judi is a consummate professional. She is knowledgeable about every nuance of the process, from staging, house pre-preparation for selling, she has excellent negotiating skills and is honest and forthright. During an interesting time to sell a home, she kept us up to date on all aspects to include weekly update of the finance market and the overall market. Judi and I met at an open house a few years back and she remembered our conversation and had follow-up, the only realtor who had this professionalism and follow through! We were lucky to have her represent us in both selling and buying, truly a win-win position. We highly recommend that if you hav...

I first met Mira at an open house in July of 2017 and from there it was history! I told her the kind of unit features I was looking for in a condo and my price range. She then added my name to an e-mail chain where I received new listings daily. Mira was incredibly helpful when it came to showing me listings. She always answered my calls/e-mails in a timely manner and was so patient with all the questions I had for her. This was my first time buying a home and I can't believe how easy she made the process for me. I started my search in July and was closing on a condo by mid-October. Mira is incredibly sweet, helpful, patient, and friendly. I am not ...

We had a terrific experience with Rob and would highly recommend him to anyone looking for a home in the Weston/Westport area. We were coming from New York City and had little idea about the area and about home buying in general. Rob patiently explained each part of the home buying process, helped us identify and narrow down what we were looking for (we were all over the place so this wasn't an easy job for him), didn't pressure us into the most expensive deal (and indeed identified 'bargain' opportunities that he thought were good buys), and then when we found our dream home, walked us through from bid to close, providing excellent advice on how to...

My husband and I met Carolyn as we started our search as first-time home buyers. Buying a home we would love and grow old in was a dream of ours for a long time. So when the time was right to start the process in Westport, we could not have been luckier to have found Carolyn. When you Google the definition of a buyer's agent, a picture of Carolyn should appear. She is the consumate professional and a true advocate for her clients. No matter the time of day or the topic, Carolyn was there for us every step of the way. We just closed on a house that we absolutely love and if it weren't for Carolyn's support and dedication to ensuring that everything w...

The experience my husband and I had with Carolyn Joseph was wonderful. From beginning to end she was generous with her time, thoughtful, professional and honest. Throughout looking for our home, Carolyn was super knowledgable of the area; patient; and conscientious of our likes and dislikes. She offered useful feedback without being overbearing. Throughout the contract to close process Carolyn was on top of every detail and was genuinely concerned with our level of comfort. She checked in often so that we never felt out of the loop. And importantly, I found her to be incredibly ethical and forthright. This was our second time buying, and we are also...

Mary Ann is "THE" local expert. Having grown up and raised her family in the area she personally knows every house, street, neighborhood and community organization in Westport. She is so well connected you will feel like a local too. Mary Ann was available to my family 24/7 no question or request was too small. Se did everything from keeping pets safe, to hand-holding when it became an emotional rollercoaster to keeping us fed, all with a smile on her face. She negotiated us a deal beyond our expectations on both the selling side and our amazing new rental. Everything was smooth and easy the entire way!

I'm glad we followed the strong recommendation by a friend, Mary Ann was absolutely amazing to work with. The combination of her deep knowledge of the Westport area (she grew up here and raised her own family here), her strong work ethic, her relentless effort to find the perfect home for us, her good relationships with other brokers, good instincts and overall wonderful demeanor. Especially in this crazy market, we'd highly recommend Mary Ann to all our family and friends.

It was meant to be! I remember first meeting Brett at a house we were looking at back in 2018. We were casually window shopping - the beginnings of me trying to convince my NYC born and bred wife that taking her out of the city doesn't take the city out of the her (plus we'd still be in the tri-state. Brett's knowledge of the area, with its excellent schools, boundless amenities, and overall sense of community, more than assuaged my wife's concerns and brought her to a level of excitement that exceeded my own! We were both drawn to Brett's personable nature, his wealth of knowledge, and how he took the time to really understand what was important to...
