I cannot personally speak ill of the Seabury Hill services, as they have always been polite and professional.
However they do work with some extremelly unrecommedable landlords. One of them (who owns several homes in the New Haven area) has given me the worst rental experience of my adult life throughout the 2 years at his property (having lived in dozens of places throughout the last 20 years).
He would come at 8.30AM on Saturdays to sniff around the house, being over-zealous of anything happening, writing detailed and unpractical contracts which he would later not abide by, and kept trying

Jack was a joy to work with. He is incredibly experienced and knowledgeable about the area--and very responsive! We were navigating selling a rented property (while balancing dual careers and life with a toddler!) and Jack made everything so easy. He communicated with our tenants, coordinated staging and cleaning the property, scheduled showings, and walked us through the contract process. We had three offers within our first day on the market! I highly recommend Jack for any seller (or buyer)!

Jack Hill at Seabury is by far the best real estate agent I have ever worked with. From our initial consultation, he was very knowledgeable, direct, and clearly understood our preferences. He worked diligently and efficiently to show us high quality properties in a timely fashion (which is very important in today’s market). He was incredibly accessible and responsive throughout the buying process and put us in the best position possible to buy our dream home. We appreciated his extensive knowledge of the market and he was just an all-around great person to work with. I recommend him highly to

I can't say enough about how helpful Jack and the Team have been over the years. We have successfully rented an apartment, purchased a house and sold that house - all over a period of 9 years. We moved out of the area now and wish we could take Seabury Hill with us.

Melanie Gunn was an absolute pleasure to work with. She was extremely professional, responsive, and trustworthy/transparent throughout the whole process. She kept me updated on every step and was always working around my schedule. She helped me sell my condo in record time keeping to my time table. If I were to buy another house/sell in the area there is no other person I would work with. Thank you for all your help Melanie

My wife and I were lucky to work with Jack this past spring to find our new home. As new home buyers, Jack's vast experience was invaluable in helping guide us through the process from start to finish, from what qualities we should look out for during our search to what to expect on closing day. We never felt any pressure from him in any regard whatsoever. He served as a guide and sounding board and provided his opinions or thoughts only when requested. His communication is great and we found it easy to arrange times to meet or have calls. In this difficult housing market, Jack's experience was

Melanie Gunn helped me buy a beautiful condo while I was out of town. What should have been a difficult endeavor instead turned out to be--with her extraordinary professionalism, great work ethic, flawless guidance and sunny disposition--easy! She has even remained available to help-me--long after the deal has been completed--with other aspects of my relocating to a new area, with great referrals for a variety of needs. I would recommend her in a heartbeat!

Melanie is an absolute GEM of an agent. We worked with Melanie as first time buyers. She didn't simply guide us through the process (which, I'll add, she did so wonderfully), but she really cared about finding the exact right fit for us. She never pushed us to make a decision too quickly, tried to convince us that we needed something more expensive than our range, or tried to brush away our concerns in favor of trying to close a deal. In fact, Melanie's knowledge and attention to detail caught red flags in properties that we never would have known to look for, saving us wasted

We worked with Melanie as first time homebuyers and would highly recommend her to anyone who is looking to purchase a home in New Haven! Even though we lived out-of-state at the time, Melanie made sure we had all the information we needed to make our decisions. She went the extra mile for our virtual tours and was incredibly responsive and patient with all the questions we had. She was resourceful, had great insights into the New Haven real estate market, and provided excellent recommendations for every step of the process (including fantastic local restaurants after we moved in)!

Jack was amazing and I couldn't recommend him enough!! He was extremely responsive and accommodating to our schedule for anything and everything throughout the entire house buying process. As first time home buyers we had a lot of questions and he walked us through everything. His experience really shows and he knows the ins-and-outs and what to watch out for. You're definitely in great hands with Jack and Seabury Hill!

Melanie was our agent for our first home (condo, actually!) purchase and was absolutely amazing through the whole process. We purchased in New Haven, and do not believe we would have found the place we did without her local expertise. Melanie also represented the sellers, which made it super easy to negotiate. She was available whenever we needed her, whether it was to let us in to measure while the closing process was still happening (with owner permission of course!), or to answer our numerous questions promptly and in great detail, over text, call, or email. Even better, Melanie had recommendations

The COVID Pandemic made buying real estate very challenging and scary particularly for out of state buyers. However, Jack Hill from Seabury-Hill Realtors was a God send. From the long distance interview, to findings home for us, to arranging virtual tour, to arranging financing, closing within a month and repairs, there was no detail he did not help us with. We ended buying a condo site unseen and we were thrilled with the purchase. However, even after the sale closed, he remained available to us. If you need a realtor in New Haven and you are lucky enough to work with Jack Hill, you are sure

My husband and I worked with Melanie Gunn to purchase our home in West Haven, CT. This isn't our first home purchase (it was our third!) and I will say this was our easiest by far. Even though the market is a bit crazy at the moment, working with Melanie was a breeze. She got to know us and our needs quickly and was incredibly responsive and attentive.

I always felt like Melanie value listening to us and working with us more than making a sale. She never pushed a home on us and whenever we made a comment on our home site, she took the feedback seriously and updated her search. We were moving

The agency itself is very good but after you sign your lease and you have to deal with the landlord it becomes a nightmare...every interaction with the landlord is horrible they treat you bad as if they were making you a favor when you are actually paying them.. feel free to contact me if you want to know where not to live..

I worked with Melanie Gunn of Seabury-Hill Realtors to sell my condo in New Haven county. Melanie has been amazing throughout the entire sale process. In just 3 short weeks she listed my home, put a deal together with a buyer and closed the sale. During the short time we worked together she was always available and attentive. Her expertise and knowledge of the greater New Haven real estate market is impeccable. She met with contractors when I wasn't able to be there and kept the sale process on track the entire time. It was such a pleasure working with Melanie and I HIGHLY recommend her to

My girlfriend and I recently worked with Cathy Hill Conlin and Jack Hill to find an apartment in New Haven.

We were on a really tight schedule and moving here from Philadelphia so we had a really small window to find something that we loved. Cathy was very friendly and took a sincere interest in finding us an apartment that would fit our needs.

After showing us only 3 places, we were able to find a really awesome apartment. Still, at no point throughout the process did she seem sales-y or like she just wanted to close a deal. She was really genuine and helpful.

Seabury Hill is hands down the best real estate agency in New Haven. Jack Hill is THE expert in the area -- and he is super responsive, and easy to work with. He went above and beyond to show me a number of properties, tour me around all the different neighborhoods, and helped me to find the right property for me. He is honest, straightforward, and he knows his stuff. Highly recommend.

Jenn is by far the best realtor there. She was so patient during our search which took a LONG time. She was always readily accessible, and was really honest about what would be best for my boyfriend and I, and what wouldn't. Once we settled on a place, Cathy took over. And I found it really disappointing that she took over for Jenn (I think because Jenn was on vacation) Cathy was very demanding on getting her money, and not pleasant to talk to, like Jenn was.
If you use Seabury: definitely ask for Jenn D'Amato!

Working with Seabury Hill was an absolute nightmare from start to finish. My husband and I worked with them in the fall of 2011 and spring of 2012 on finding an apartment in New Haven. We dealt primarily with Cathy. We were looking for a 2 bedroom apartment that allowed dogs. She brought us to an apartment on Lawrence Street (which was basically the third floor of a one family home) and conveniently left out a whole lot of details that are absolutely crucial to making the right decision on selecting an apartment.

First of all, she explained to us that the landlord was a really sweet elderly

My boyfriend and I had to find and move into an apartment within A DAY after we moved into an apartment where the ceiling fell in (we used Pike International--see review) and they were just outstanding. They worked on the weekend with us to get us settled into a place that was less expensive and much bigger than the one we moved out of. Seabury is a professional and respectable family operation.

I have worked with this company both as someone trying to find an apartment, and, more recently, someone whose landlord hired them to rent their property. I am never dealt with a more unprofessional person. Lack of notice, relying on the tenants to be there to have a key (actually expecting this), calling repeatedly when people are out of the country, asking the tenants to move out early, expecting tenants to give notice to other tenants, etc. The list truly goes on and on.

I would like to think that our experience is only with one real estate agent and not the whole company, but our experience
