"I listed my house through Peggy Patenaude in August 2010. The housing market was very slow then. Daily news and depressing economic forecast were not favorable to sellers. My property did not flow well as the housing market was stagnated. Amidst this grim situation, the professionalism of Peggy brightened my hope. She was upbeat and optimistic that a right buyer would appear. She diligent searched for that "buyer" on my behalf. My house was finally sold after I had relocated overseas. Peggy assuaged many of my practical concerns during my absence. The closing was done smoothly without my presence. Peggy delivered first-rate service during the entire process when she represented my property. Hence, I recommend her to you most highly with confidence and enthusiam."

"Peggy it was such a pleasure working with you. It was always apparent that you were working for us, and that our house was the most important house on the market. There was never a time when we felt that a simple question was too trivial for you. You always put our requests first, and you are extremely organized, professional, and not pushy. You return phone calls very quickly, and we always felt comfortable calling you at any time. Your communication skills are a strength. You are the best. I cannot stop raving about you. You deserve to be #1. You are on top of everything and always know how to take control of any difficult situation. I do not see how you could improve your services. Most realtors only care about the money, but you are different, you take the seller's emotions and feelings into account and put those first. You made selling our home a pleasant, positive experience. You always realized it was not easy for us, but your caring attitude made us realize we made the right decision."
Ruth & Martin Baer, Andover
  
 
"Our Realtor, Peggy Patenaude, did a stellar job, sticking with it through 2 floods, one buyer's withdrawal of their offer becuase of the flood and difficulty of working with remote sellers since we were away almost all of the time. So she has to do a lot of the extras on our behalf. She'll go the extra mile and really knows her stuff."
Denny & Lorri Schmick, Andover
 
 
"My wife and I were referred to Peggy by a mutual friend. Being new to New England, we found the real estate market impossible to understand. We found ourselves thinking, "homes in the South – where we are from – are a small fraction of the cost of an equivalent home in Massachusetts; how do we know if we’re getting a good deal?” We immediately recognized that Peggy knew the area well – especially Andover and North Andover – and we signed her as our Buying Agent. She was able to guide us towards sections of town that fit well with our lifestyle. Even in this challenging market, we found a house in Andover that we love and fits well in our budget. Throughout the home buying process, Peggy was available and supportive at every step along the way. I highly recommend her. Peggy clearly knows Andover and North Andover like the back of her hand (it’s impressive, really). "  
Nick & Holly Kingsley, Andover
 
 
"Peggy really knows her business and the Andover real estate market.  She gave us sound advice on pricing our house in today's competitive, challenging environment.  Because we listened to her, we were able to sell our home quickly and relocate as planned last summer."   
Craig & Barbara Castleman, Andover
 
 
"What a beautiful, heart-capturing, honest and caring person Ms. Patenaude is! She has the highest of morals and unquestionable integrity and she goes above and beyond to make sure her customers are completely satisfied. We could go on for days about her -She is a SUPER REAL ESTATE LADY. It was such a pleasure to have her sell our house. We really feel that we gained a friend in the transaction." 
Zara Rejaee & Alireza Ghamsari, Andover
 
 
"We cannot say enough good things about oour recent experience with Peggy Patenaude as both our listing agent and our buyer representative.  In the fall of 2008 we listed and sold our Andover house and purchased a new property, also in Andover.  Peggy served as our agent for both transactions, and her effectiveness, integrity, and upbeat personality gave us the confidence to sell and buy in a difficult market.  Peggy's enthusiasm for her work is genuine and infectious, and she devotes incredible energy and attention to her clients.  With Peggy you will get an honest assessment of the market in general and your property in particular, and you will receive as well clear and practical strategies for negotiating your way to a sale or purchase - and all of this information will be delivered with a smile.  We could not have asked for a better partner in our recent real estate transactions."
Jeffrey & Anita Renton, Andover
 
 
"Peggy was just wonderful to work with, considering this was the most dreadful housing market in 35 years, she got the job done.  She was always upbeat, pleasant and helpful.  She was extremely positive and always encouraging.  I would recommend her in a heartbeat to anyone at anytime.  She is truely a gem."
Paula A. Hegarty, Andover (Fine Homes)
 
 
"My house was put up for sale on September 15, 2008.  It was sold on December 30, 2008.  I appreciated the hard work of Peggy in accomplishing this task.  She was extremely helpful in assessing the completion of the house & how to best present it for sale.  She provided guidance to establish the selling price initially & recommended price changes to respond to current market conditions.  She communicated reguarly so that we felt we were responsive to potential buyers & conducted buyer-seller negotiations quickly and effectively.  I recommend her highly as a sales person to assist you in selling your home."
Saul Birnbach, Andover
 
 
"I feel I was so lucky to have chosen Peggy Patenaude to sell my house.  I had been in my house for 32 years and never sold before.  It was time for a retirement community.  She was honest with expectations and gave excellent advice, preparing me for each step along the way.  Peggy was easily reachable, returning calls quickly and so much fun to work with.  Many times my family and friends have heard me say how happy I was with Peggy's performance.  I could not have asked for more.  She is the best."
Carlene Washburn, Andover
 
 
"I found my house by my own research, consequently I had the freedom to decide who to work with , but having dealt with Peggy on previous property inquiries I felt comfortable working with her to close the transaction. This proved to be a good decision as Peggy was on top of things throughout the process. She was knowledgeable and gave sound advise. She proved to be fair intermediary between us and the Builder/Seller and her attention to detail was a critical to make sure nothing was left unwritten.

Peggy understood that our house was a unique situation, we bought a fully restored antique house that was neither new construction nor sold  as-is, She helped the buyer and the seller come to terms and checked that the terms were met.

As a businessman I appreciate her professionalism and feel comfortable recommending her to others."
Tony & Amy Boden, Andover
 
 
"Peggy is extremely professional, friendly, knowledgeable and works very hard.  She is excellent at handling all of the small details required in the home selling process.  She is far and away the BEST real estate agent I have ever dealt with."
Ken & Allison Smith, Andover
 
 
"About a year ago, illness forced us to put our home on the market.  We had lived in it for over forty eight years and were very sad to have to sell the home and property.  We listed it with Peggy who was most sensitive to our needs and empathetic to our feelings. 
 
We had never sold a home before and had many questions and concerns.  Therefore, we called Peggy many times and she always answered our calls promptly and was unfailingly polite and cordial"
Connie Abodelly, Andover
 
 
"We went into our search with no plans to even use an agent as both of us can be described as somewhat independent people to say the least. But after meeting you and talking with you for a while by happenstance at a house we were interested in I could tell the benefits in having you as our agent would bring to the table. Those qualities that changed my mind were complete honesty, incredible knowledge of the current inventory and history of homes, detailed knowledge of builders in the area, and the ability to listen to what our needs and desires were. When I told my wife that I wanted to hire you as our agent because I felt these qualities, she responded with a smile, as she said that she felt the same way and was hoping I would feel the same as well.  

We then went on a long journey together as it did take quite some time to match our laundry list of needs and desires with the inventory available and our budget. Your patience in this process was extremely appreciated, and when we did finally find the best match for our laundry list you followed through every step of the way to make sure the I’s were dotted and the t’s were crossed.   

The highest compliment I think I can give you is that I know my business which employs over 20 sales representatives would be more successful if they all had the honesty, integrity, product knowledge, listening skills, and desire to be as good at what they do as Peggy Patenaude. I would strongly recommend to any person in our neck of the woods to hire you if they wanted to have peace of mind and know the job will be done right with their best interests at heart, which is not something that can be said of all people in the sales profession.

Once again Allison and I thank you from the bottom of our hearts and can’t wait to have you over for dinner in our new home once the remodeling is done."
Chris & Allison Chapman, Andover
 
 
"Thanks for your tenacity and balance in moving our sale forward and ultimately keeping it together in a very tough market. I really appreciated your willingness to listen to ideas to try new marketing and be open and positive in this challenging market.  Thanks for everything.  We'll call on you if we're buying/selling again in the area."
Tom Giuliana, Andover
 

"Wei and I would like to thank you for all your hard work throughout our real estate transactions.  It is not easy to sell in this kind of down market, especially with mortgage sub prime issues and economic downturns.  However, you went above and beyond and walked through every step with us, dealing with unexpected issues, coordinating with different parties. . .  On the buy side, again, you answered any questions that we had regarding the house, and you even went extra miles to assist us in researching any potential issues/uncertainty  regarding the house.  Were really impressed! 

Peggy, throughout the transactions, you provided numerous valuable advice to us which helped us make better decisions.  Your great attitude, professionalism, reliability, and patience have really made you stand out.  Were fortunate to have you as our buyers and sellers agent.  Wed recommend you to anyone that we know in future real estate transactions.

Again, thank you very much Peggy, for all your hard work!  It has been a great pleasure working with you! " Wei & Angie Chen, Andover (Fine Homes)

 
"This was the 7th home I have sold and moved from in the last 30 years!  Peggy was, by far, the BEST agent we have ever dealt with.  She was honest, forthright and incredibly energetic.  She sold our house in record time in the worst market in history.  She made a difficult process as easy and pleasant as I could ever imagine. No one could ask for a better Real Estate Professional to work with. (And we picked up a new friend, to boot!)"
Tracey Upton & Kathy Parsons, Andover
 
 
"Peggy was a wonderfully thoughtful, meticulously organized, professional and friendly Realtor.  She was the perfect fit for my wife and me as 1st time buyers.  She is knowledgeable, courteous and extremely conscientious.  In short, we could not have asked for better service.  We will highly recommend her to our friends in the future."
Kevin & Merri Tracey, Andover (First Time Home Buyers)
 
 
"Most people make sure that they have a thorough set of comps done when selling a house. I made sure that I went through the same process in choosing a Realtor to sell my house. Personally knowing several Realtors in Andover, I wanted to choose someone whom I did not know, as not to be perceived as choosing one friend over another. I researched every agency and sieved through each Realtor on the web site, comparing number of houses listed, houses sold, in what time frame and how close to asking price. All of my research paid off and I made the right choice! Peggy had the right balance of being personable, thorough and professional. She always respected my input, kept me in the loop and was proactive. With the market in a real downturn, she persevered and followed every lead. She was always willing to take the time to check on the house since I had already moved out of town. Right down to the last detail, Peggy was diligent. I highly recommend Peggy without reservation. "
Marcia Huston, Andover
 
 
"Choosing Peggy Patenaude to sell our home was the best decision we made. She is a true professional, highly respected by her collegues and clients. She advised us on what was needed to get the house ready for the market and then invested unbelievable time and energy marketing and broadly advertising. Many people commented on her great MLS listing and amazing pictures (she actually had her photographer come back twice). Her open house was a major success. Peggy guided us both through all this with patience, sensitivity and caring. She has continued to support us and the buyer long after the closing. We highly recommend Peggy. "
Maura & Akmal Khan, Andover (Fine Homes)
 
 
"Peggy was an amazing Realtor and did a great job selling our home. She was attentive to our concerns and gave us assurance that our house would be sold. I would recommend anyone who is looking to sell their house to go to Peggy; you will not be disappointed."
Jin Cho, Andover (Fine Homes)
 
 
"Peggy was very committed and stayed with us through the house sale process. "
Patty & Ed Heinle, Andover, MA
 
 
"Working with Peggy Patenaude made a real estate transcation become a pleasurable experience. She works diligently for her clients and covers every angle. As well as being very professional she is also very kind and caring. She always has something positive to relay to you about your home and we would recommend her to anyone thinking of listing their home with her and in fact have done so with neighbors on our street."
Joe & Kathy Cullinan, Andover
 
 
"Peggy Patenaude is truly an asset to your organization. We have worked with many realtors over the last year and Peggy was by far the best. She is professional, caring, pays attention to detail, and truly uncovers the buyers’ true needs and wants. She was patient with us throughout the process and was always on top of new listings. If it weren’t for her working around the clock, we would have missed out on this opportunity at 4 Harmony Lane. We have since referred friends, colleagues and family to Peggy, in the here and now and for in the future.”
Patty & George Rose, Andover (Fine Homes)
 
 
"Peggy, you were a pleasure to work with because you were honest & upfront from the beginning. You always answered all of our questions in a timely manner which helped us stay calm with being first time homebuyers. You always directed us in the right direction and referred us to the right people which helped us close & sign the purchase and sale in a short amount of time.”
Deidra & Daniel Ruvido, Andover (First Time Home Buyers)
 
 
"What impressed us is that Peggy Patenaude knows how to market a home, knows how to judge the market timing, and knows how to compare your home against current market conditions within your area. She can correctly estimate the range of prices that your home can command at the time the home is listed for sale. Despite the difficulties encountered, with Peggy’s help, we sold our home for a very satisfactory price, within our time frame for moving. When it comes time to sell our current home, I hope we find someone as competent as Peggy.”
Bruno & Carolyn Mattedi, Andover
 
 
"Selling our house was a pleasure with Peggy Patenaude. She was always available to answer all our questions and guide us through the procedure, beginning to end. Our house wasn’t huge or important, but Peggy made us feel as though our account was on the top of her list!”
Meredythe Impey, Andover
 
 
"Peggy is one of the best agents that you could ever ask for. She’s knowledgeable, works hard, is creative and is a very good listener. She has an outstanding personality and very good interpersonal skills. It is very difficult to give candid feedback, as a broker, when it comes to some of the deficiencies that we may not see as sellers and homebuyers. She always passed on the comments of the potential buyers with skill and diplomacy while being totally honest in her approach and feedback. We want to thank Peggy and the entire Prudential staff for the way you handled our home and the way you handled the entire sale.”
Colin & Carolyn Ahern, Andover (Fine Homes)
 
 
"Peggy is a wonderful, hardworking and knowledgeable real estate agent. Her energy is limitless and she always did everything she could to help us find the right house. Peggy’s knowledge of the Andover’s is extensive. She gave us the names of some great contractors and vendors. Peggy is the best!!”
Ken & Allyson Smith, Andover
 
 
"Thank you, Peggy, for your help in selling our home in Andover—a first for you, perhaps, that the "For Sale” was posted only one day, and our neighbor stated "that was the fastest sale I’ve ever seen!” Thanks again, Peggy, for professional appearance, demeanor, and really friendly contact. Continued success to you.”
Helen & Joseph Campbell, Andover
 
 
"Peggy, Thank you so much for your guidance and help during this process. Making the decision to buy was difficult and scary for me and your patience, kindness and understanding helped ease my mind. I especially appreciate that you treated me the same way you treat your clients who are buying something far more expensive than my condo. I look forward to doing business with you in the future."
Maggi Welsh, Andover (First Time Home Buyer)
 
 
"Peggy, thanks for the very professional and thorough job you did for us in finding the right fit for our new condo. You asked the right questions, weeded out the things we didn’t like, and focused on the things we did like and led us to the best choice! We negotiated a fair price. We’ve moved in and are very happy. Thanks also for the extras-financing direction, help finding an attorney, contractors, etc. When we’re ready to sell we’ll come to you.”
Denny & Lorri Schmick, Andover
 
 
"My wife & I were selling our home & purchasing a new one, both in Andover. It was very stressful to say the least. To further complicate the process, all this was happening while I was traveling on business in Japan. Peggy was excellent in handling the details and ensuring nothing fell through the cracks. She was also very accommodative in dealing with the 12+ hour time difference when communicating with me in Japan. The whole process went very smoothly & my wife & I were extremely pleased with Peggy´s performance. I would definitely call for her services again should I plan another move and I would highly recommend her to any potential client."
Anthony and Debbie Christopher, Andover
 
 
"We really enjoyed working with Peggy. She was not only helpful and pleasant but made the whole process of buying a new house easy. She has gone above and beyond since the time of the purchase in helping to ensure all the loose ends in our new home were tied up. We really couldn’t have asked for better service"
Carolyn & Joe DiGiammo, Andover (Fine Homes)
 
 
"This is the first time we have bought a house, and we were naturally suspicious of the whole process. Peggy was able to answer all our questions with honesty and clarity, and served as a superb negotiator between buyer and seller. Throughout all this she was able to remain loyal to the sellers and was pivotal in the success of the sale. Peggy is a very hardworking honest person and is extremely knowledgeable about the Realty business. An asset on any team.”
Jonathan & Alexandra Issberner, Andover (First Time Home Buyers)
 
 
"Peggy, After we sold our home in Canton, and were unable to find a home for our family of six in Andover, you stepped up to the plate and made it all happen. Not only did you find the perfect home for our family, but you helped manage the timing and transition in a professional and friendly manner. We will always be grateful to you and feel very lucky to know you."
Audrey Desisto, Andover (Fine Homes, New Construction)
 
 
"Peggy is very helpful and knowledgeable. Thanks for making my condo purchase fast and easy."
Melissa Gaudette, Andover (First Time Home Buyer)
 
 
"Thank you for your quick response and attention to detail during the purchase of our home. We felt you had our best interest at heart through the entire process. You are a true professional. Thank you."
Ralph & Elizabeth Covino, Andover (New Construction)
 
 
"Ours was not a simple buy/sell transaction as it involved multiple real estate sales-Peggy’s knowledge of the market and pricing resulted in multi-million dollar transactions which all closed in less than ninety days. But what was even more astounding was her ability to close all parties on the same day..."
Michael Ferrante, Andover (Fine Homes)
 
 
"When we first thought about selling our home in Andover, MA we felt sure that with a positive market we could sell the house ourselves. So we listed it on the web with a popular site. It was on the market for 6 months with a lot of activity but no solid offers. We met Peggy through a client of hers and we immediately knew that she could help us. We turned the listing over to Peggy and within 3 DAYS we had our home under agreement! Thank you Peggy for all that you did!
Sandy and Ed Stewart, Andover (Previous For Sale By Owner)
