"When Kim and I first contacted Sonia, she came highly recommended. At the time, we did not think we were ready to make a move to a bigger house, and were only half-heartedly considering it, leaning towards adding on. Sonia came over and immediately boosted our confidence, as she pointed out all of the pros – rather than the cons for our current house and why she felt we would be successful selling in the current market. We still felt we were not prepared at the time and decided to stick it out a little longer.
We signed up for Sonia’s daily email listings and a few houses of interest came along. Sonia took us to 3 or 4 showings and we hit up a few open houses but none of them fit the bill. Sonia remained patient, positive and made a real effort to understand exactly what we were looking for and why (staying in Ipswich being the number one key requirement). Flash forward a few months and lo-an- behold one Saturday morning I checked my email and there was a single new listing in Ipswich. The size, surroundings and features caught my eye right away and Sonia had us in for a showing the next day. Kim and I fell for the house as soon as we drove up and walked inside, and that evening Sonia was writing up an offer and advising us on our strategy. We had our 2nd counter offer accepted by Tuesday.
Now came the stressful part; we had 4 weeks to sell our house or lose our new home! I personally felt our house was not prepared for the market, and that it needed no less and 100 different improvements before it would be fit to sell. Sonia calmed me down immediately and suggested only two or three very manageable repairs that we finished right away. She had an open house that weekend, less than a week after our offer was accepted. It took another few weeks and some nail biting but Sonia ended up finding the perfect buyers, who were looking for a manageable started house to start their family – exactly who we were hoping to sell to.
Throughout all of this, Sonia made us feel that we were her top priority and was always available by phone or text to discuss next steps. She was available to meet all of the inspectors whenever we needed her, and never once did she not have something done when she said she would or miss an appointment. Although this was all quite a blur at the time, it turned out to be a perfect move for our family and Sonia’s dedication, professionalism and fun positive outlook is what made the whole thing possible in such a whirlwind timeline.
We would never recommend anyone besides Sonia. Although she was the only person at Windhill I had the pleasure general, since you obviously place great importance on the quality and professionalism of your sales staff and the positive experience you bring to your customers.
Hooray for Sonia, and many thanks to Windhill for helping to make this happen!"

Although I have been a realtor for 20 years, I chose to put my offer through Sonia when I went to her open house because I knew her as a friend and have worked alongside her in real estate and she has always been an honest and trustworthy person. As a realtor, I knew and she also told me upfront that she was working as a Seller’s agent to get her client the best possible price for his condo and could not help me with the offer amount. She was very professional in every way and I am sure both myself and her seller came out winners. I wasn’t even really seriously searching for a condo and a friend came with me to the open house and he tells others it took me all of 10 minutes to decide I wanted to buy that condo for my new home, but it took me a month to decide on what colors I wanted to paint it. I would recommend Sonia to anyone looking to buy or sell a home. She made everything happen and I adore my new home. Thank you, Sonia - Cindy D. - Ipswich, MA
I just wanted to take the time to share with you that you MADE THIS TRANSACTION! From the start to the finish. You are a class act! You made us so welcome when we first were there to see the house and all the way thru the process I told my buyers that we could not have gotten this house if it wasn’t for you! I told them you are such a joy to work with. I have been experiencing some terrible really unprofessional agents that just do not do things in writing etc.. and just do not know, but you are on top of your game.
If you are ever in my area please call me and I hope we do another deal together!!
Thank you once again for your professionalism
