Christina McVaney

I had the pleasure of working with Christina McVaney and Ellen McNees over an eight month period while searching for a home in Fairfield County. I made offers on multiple different homes before finally landing the right one, and through it all they honored what I was looking for and showed incredible patience—especially since I was out of town for much of that time. They were even willing to tour homes with me via FaceTime. Despite the challenges of today’s competitive and overpriced market, Christina and Ellen made the process not only manageable but genuinely enjoyable. They also helped my daughter find her home last year, and we both truly apprec...

Christina and Ellen were referred to us by a very close friend of ours who has used them to buy their home in Westport. We got connected first via e mail at a time we were not really looking to buy a home. Christina was sending us weekly MLS listings which matched our search criteria, and gave us time to have an idea of the market before we were ready to buy. When it came to looking for a house she was always available with very short notice (sometimes even hours before the showing) and both of them were contactable very easily by text/email or phone call (which was what we valued the most). They were flexible, patient with us and helped us to find ...

Christina and her team were an absolute pleasure to work with. We appreciated the professionalism, market knowledge and their incredible marketing effort which showcased our home so effectively. We would strongly recommend Christina and her team if you’re looking to buy or sell in Fairfield County!

Top realtor, neighbor, and friend, this is my experience with Christina. Christina recognized the value in the family home and property that I was charged with selling after my father died. Christina got me top dollar from its sale. But more than that, Christina was a gentle and calm presence as I spent months emptying the house and dealing with the grief after my father's death. I live out of the area and Christina provided the extra service of finding a contractor to do the final clearing and cleaning of the house. The listing, showing, and sale of the property was done flawlessly and at a distance from me while I was across the country.

Our experience with Christina was nothing short of EXCEPTIONAL! My wife and I had the unique experience of looking for a Westport home while still living in CA. Christina made the process effortless by always making herself available for odd-hour/odd-day showings that support our west-coast schedules. Beyond that, Christina made herself available to our locally based family, giving them separate tours and showings. Christina's knowledge and passion for the Westport/Fairfield area is unmatched and made cross-country relocation a breeze. All said, Christina McVaney should be your first call for your home selling or purchasing needs!

Christina is a consummate professional and extremely patient with us. Our real estate search spanned a year and evolved from a casual search, to a hiatus, and then to a more deliberate search across multiple towns. She is very responsive and is a pleasure to work with. I would highly recommend working with Christina!

Working with Christina, Ellen and the Vanderblue Team was such a great experience. Not only do they know the real estate market well, as a good broker should, but they made the entire process smooth and enjoyable. Thank you so much for helping us find exactly what we needed!
