Originally from Boston suburbs, I moved to the Hartford area 17+ years ago.  I spent my vacations with my cousins in West Hartford, attended local summer camps, and learned to ski at Ski Sundown, Southington, CT.  Because of its great reputation and the fact my mom grew up in this town, I knew it would be a great fit for our family.  I soon felt like West Hartford was my home. My son attended West Hartford Public Schools and I was an active volunteer.    

I have 20+ years of experience in client-focused roles.  Building strong relationships is the cornerstone of my business and has allowed me to exceed my client's expectations.  In my first job in Connecticut, I was responsible for welcoming newcomers to the Greater Hartford area.  “It was a great match; it combined my natural ability to connect with people and my desire to help others in a meaningful way.”    My background in event planning taught me how to pivot at a moment's notice and expect the unexpected.  I learned my strong values of hard work, integrity, and outstanding client service from my family and it shines through in everything I do.   

I gained my sales experience working at my family-owned and operated furniture store.   It was at the store and in other sales positions that I cultivated my skills and provided the highest level of customer service by understanding the importance of personal relationships, follow-ups, and not only listening but understanding my customers’ needs.  I pride myself as an agent who will not only negotiate on your behalf but keep you informed every step of the way.  When you choose me as your agent, you’ll find a reliable and committed partner, willing to go the extra mile to make your dreams a reality.  

When I’m not working, I enjoy playing racket sports, being outdoors, working on creative projects, exercising, and traveling.  In the nice weather, you’ll find me walking my dog Cookie, the sweetest Bichon /Shih Tzu puppy in town.  Feel free to reach out to me to discuss your goals and we will work together to make them a reality.  Contact me: at 617-461-6343 or sherry.waitsman@cbrealty.com.
