About Me Andrew Walker

As your Trusted Real Estate Advisor, I will be an advocate for you. Whether you are buying or selling, I will work tirelessly to promote your best interests. If you are selling, I will collaborate with you to help you achieve maximum value in the least amount of time. I use state-of-the-art technology, team collaboration, and Around Town Real Estate’s superior marketing materials. If you are buying, I will ensure you have access to the best information and market data. This will give you the strongest possible negotiating position.

One of the main reasons I chose real estate was my previous job. I felt trapped in a dead-end position. Real estate offers me the chance to build a lasting career with growth potential. It also allows me to provide real, meaningful help to the people I work with. It is truly an honor to serve the home sellers and buyers I work with. Meeting new people and helping them sell their current home or find the right house to call home is a passion of mine.

My mission is to understand my clients’ needs through effective communication. I aim to build relationships that stand the test of time. Treating everyone I work with like family is a principle I hold dear.

I’ve lived in the area since 2001. When I first visited, I immediately fell in love with its charm. Growing up in the Midwest, moving to Connecticut was a breath of fresh air. The area offers beautiful scenery and is close to numerous cities and activities. It’s a captivating place that I am proud to call home.

In my spare time, I spend time with my wife, Jessie, and our two beautiful daughters, Lenora and Elani

I look forward to meeting with you and working together to accomplish your goals in your next real estate endeavor.

Testimonials

Bill Johnston

When it came time to list our home, a friend recommended we reach out to Andy. From the moment Andy arrived at our house, my wife and I knew we had the perfect person. As expected, Andy and his team did an amazing job helping us get ready to sell, find an excellent buyer and take the process from idea to closure. Our sale was completely stress free, primarily because everything Andy and his team did was professional, efficient and effective. Thank you and we hope to see you again!

Kevin Siladi

Working with Andy was both a pleasure and rewarding experience. Beginning almost two years before we put our house up for sale, Andy visited us and gave his recommendations as to what improvements would help our sale go quickly. His team then helped prepare a professional portfolio and staging plan. As a result our “pocket listing” sold after only two showings for higher than asking price.

Jason

Andy Sachs came highly recommended when my wife and I decided to sell our house and begin the journey looking for a new, larger house for our family. Andy was patient throughout the process and extremely well informed regarding the local markets in Southbury and Newtown. Andy was very responsive to our numerous questions and provided clear, well thought out advice. We are extremely thankful for Andy and The Around Town Team’s professionalism and guidance throughout the home buying/selling process. Selling and buying a home is a stressful process. However, with Andy and his Team of resources to support and guide you, the process will be that much easier and efficient. We proudly recommend Andy to our family and friends for all their home buying/selling needs.

Alessandra DiMauro

Andy Sachs combined his expertise, diligence, and that all too important aspect of “hand holding” to help shepherd us through the nutty home buying experience indicative of this current housing market. His knowledge is so impressive (and comforting) as it extends well beyond the real estate market and structuring offer strategies into current economic conditions, interest rates, renovation ideas, and seemingly endless referrals to necessary local service providers. Definitely above and beyond value-added for anyone relocating to the area. I could probably go on! But in a nutshell, within the first few minutes of talking to him, you know immediately that you’re in good hands with Andy as your Realtor. And…that feeling only increases as you continue working with him. Thank you Andy for guiding us through these last few months. We love the house we ended up in!

David DiCorpo

We have had the pleasure of working with Andy twice, once as a buyer broker in 2013 and again in 2021-2022. Why do I say 2021-2022? Because Andy is not your transactional realtor, out for only the sale. When we told him we were looking to move in the summer of 2022, in the fall of 2021, he went to work. He came over and laid out a plan for what we should do 6 months in advance and step by step to get the house sold. When it came time for remodeling, he joined us and helped determine the most “bang for the buck” that would also move the house quickly, at a great and realistic price. We worked together coming up with a catchy listing, which the buyer later told us made him laugh and look further. He ensured we were pricing the house correctly using data analytics, so we would achieve our goals, which was harder with the changing interest rate/real estate market. We have a huge success story for our family in 2022, and Andy was mission critical to this being achieved. You want to fail? Use someone else. You want to win, call our forever family friend Andy.

Melissa Clark

Could not be more satisfied with all stages of the selling process! We initially selected Danielle Valenti as our agent based upon her online marketing. From the initial meeting, Danielle was thoroughly prepared: market knowledge, staging/photos options, home pricing, etc. She priced our home competitively, and we received multiple offers after our first weekend on the market. Danielle presented the offers in a detailed way that charted pros/cons, which allowed us to carefully review them and pick the best one. We were also impressed by Danielle’s quick replies to our texts, calls, and emails (often within minutes of sending them), which kept us up to date with all stages of the selling process. Danielle also worked closely with our lawyer (we asked for a recommendation) and our bank mortgage representative. We are now in search of our next home to buy, and we are confident that Danielle will be just as effective, caring, and professional as she was when we were sellers. We highly recommend Danielle Valenti without reservations!

Big shout out and big THANK YOU to Andrew Walker. Andrew made it possible, and made the time, for us to view homes late into the evenings ( we were coming from NY to CT). He was quick to answer text messages and return calls. Stand up guy and was very patient with our changing tastes in homes; professional and knowledgeable. We HIGHLY recommend Andrew for your next home. Thank you again Andrew! You’re our only family in CT 🙂 Ivan, Lilly and Saia.

Lisa Farr

Working with Andrew was an absolute dream! He navigated my husband and I through the process of selling our home; from a designer coming over for advice on staging, arranging a photographer to take the photos and listing our home. He made every step so easy, gave incredible guidance, and was prompt with every move he made for us. Andrew always had our best interest, we are so thankful to have had Andrew both sell and help us purchase our dream home.

Bonnie Davies

I had a great experience working with Andrew. He was professional, knowledgeable and responsive. I am very thankful for his guidance through out the entire process.
