"I can't say enough good things about Claire Browne! She went above and beyond what you would think a realtor would do for you. She really took time to get to know us, our needs, preferences, personalities, and lifestyle. Not only did she find us the house of our dreams, she really made it happen for us. We had some complications that came up; such as not being happy with the mortgage we had gotten and having to be out of our old house well before we could close on the new house. Claire helped us find a better mortgage by connecting us with a local bank, and found us a wonderful temporary house to stay in until we closed. She made a difficult transition flow seamlessly. Claire is also a really kind, funny, helpful, responsive and well-connected person. Any time we had a question or needed a recommendation, she got back to us promptly with the answer. Now, we are settled in our house and loving Beacon life. We look forward to seeing Claire around town!"

★★★★★
"As first-time buyers, Claire was a great resource. She was patient and knowledgeable when answering all of our questions and has truly impressive local knowledge. We were out of state for a lot of our search, but Claire kept the process smooth and has continued to check in even after the sale to make sure everything stays that way as we get settled in. Thanks Claire!"

★★★★★
" I had a great experience working with Claire! We were first time buyers, moving from out of the area, with a young child during the pandemic, and Claire was so helpful in navigating all the challenges that posed along the way. She explained what to expect from the process as many times as we asked, accommodated our unpredictable schedule with our kid while house-hunting, and helped make our visits to look at houses worthwhile so we didn't need to waste time traveling from a distance for nothing. She knows the area so well, always pointing out things about the neighborhoods, especially things we wouldn't realize as visitors, both good and bad. I also appreciated how she had a critical eye for every property, helping us see potential problems or benefits, or how things can be changed to suit our needs. She helped us find a home we weren't initially expecting, but that suited us well, and we are very happy with the results!."

★★★★★
" Claire helped me find one of my first apartments in Beacon almost a decade ago and now helped me and my partner buy our first home here as well. For years I have been trying to buy and Claire was always there to help me look and guide me. Come 2020 in an extremely competitive market Claire help me and my partner search and buy our first home. Her knowledge of the area and houses is extensive, she is responsive and professional, navigates the system easily and knows the market well. Claire was a clear choice for us when we needed a realtor and we where absolutely right. She is also so good at recommending people for anything you might need as a new homeowner, and keeps up with you as you learn the ins and outs of homeownership. We are thankful to have Claire as our realtor."

★★★★★
" My husband and I used Claire to help us find a home this past summer and fall in Beacon. The market was hotter than hot due to the pandemic and people leaving New York City. Claire was absolutely amazing throughout the entire process. Unlike other realtors we have encountered in the past, she did not flood our inbox with listings for every house that came on the market. Instead, she listened to what we were looking for and only sent us homes that she believed would meet our needs. She has tremendous local knowledge, seems to know someone who can do anything we might need done around the house, is extremely responsive, and Is also a lot of fun! She has a great personality and was a pleasure to work with. We cannot recommend her enough, and are thrilled to have found our dream home as a result of her efforts."

★★★★★
" Even when I felt like my wish list was unattainable, and became discouraged, Claire encouraged me to be patient. Sure enough, Claire helped me find exactly what I was looking for. I love my home. I highly recommended Claire."

★★★★★
"Claire was recommended to us by a colleague who recently moved to Beacon, and we’re so glad we got to work with her. She was incredibly patient, thorough, and helpful as we explored Beacon with intent to move up from the city – a daunting task during the pandemic and with a newborn baby in tow, but she made it so easy! Claire handled everything for me, after I had moved from Beacon. The price she got was a lot more than I expected to get-a nice surprise. I had an contract signed within only a few weeks.When we found the home we wanted, she was right on top of every aspect of the offer, inspection, and buying process. What’s more, she’s a veritable Swiss Army Knife of solutions – if she doesn’t have the answer right away, she’s got a rolodex full of people who do! There hasn’t been an occasion where we’ve regretted following Claire’s guidance, and we could not be happier to recommend her to anyone who will listen. Particularly if you’re new to the area, you can’t go wrong working with Claire Browne."

"Claire handled everything for me, after I had moved from Beacon. The price she got was a lot more than I expected to get-a nice surprise. I had an contract signed within only a few weeks."

★★★★★
"Claire was utterly amazing. My property was challenging though lovely, and she embraced it as if she wanted to live there herself. She worked so hard, I couldn't believe it- assisting with regulatory issues, using connections, and finally finding the perfect buyers for this historic family home. She was patient yet persistent, and this was a godsend. I would recommend her in a heartbeat, would use her again, and suggest to all who read this that you ask for her."

★★★★★
"Claire was amazing throughout our house selling process. We live out of State so we needed someone we could trust implicitly. She gave advice on what to do to get the house ready, helped find contractors and hosted multiple open-houses, for both agents and home-buyers. She was always available when we needed her, and kept us informed of everything that was going on. Once we had a signed contract, she steered us through the final weeks of inspections and the closing. She sold our house in a very difficult market and we can't thank her enough. We would highly recommend her to anyone looking to sell their house in the Hudson Valley."

★★★★★
"Claire's a terrific realtor. She was absolutely professional and brought her a-game from the first conversation all the way through closing. She get's right to work but is also very friendly to work with. In my opinion, she knows exactly where the market is and how to move sell a home for top dollar and quickly! She always had an well informed opinion on the questions I asked... all in all truly a pleasure to work with. I'd 100% work with her again."

★★★★★
"Claire is a consummate professional. Down to earth and very approachable making our interaction easy and productive. Claire walked me through the process of getting the house ready for showing after advising me on what could be done to improve how the house would show. I had planned on sanding the wood floors on the first level along with some fresh paint. Her keen insight allowed her to suggest that we carry a new wood floor into the kitchen in order to match the rest of the floors. We removed the older vinyl floor and replaced it with oak making a cohesive look to finish off the kitchen and main living level of the house. If you're looking for someone to not only guide you through the process but also maximize your potential return on the sale of your house, give Claire a call."

★★★★★
"Claire helped me sell my house and find a new home. I couldn't have chosen a better person to lead me through these very stressful transactions. She is knowledgable about the market and process. She called me back right away, calmed me down when I was freaking out, and always showed up on time."

★★★★★
"Claire was amazing. She will do everything she can to make sure you get what you want. This was my first home. Her knowledge of process helped us a lot in getting everything together. I highly recommend her! She rocks!!"
