About Me About Me

The term Realtor has come to connote competency, fairness and high integrity resulting in adherence to a lofty ideal of moral conduct in business relations. No inducement of profit and no instruction from clients ever can justify a departure from this ideal.

In Kirsten's view there can be only one driving view about a successful business: "Do whatever is needed to meet the objectives of the customer." That fundamental concept is held together by responding to the customer with absolute honesty, concern for their welfare, focused activity and total attention to detail. In success or failure, Kirsten always finds ways to improve.

Kirsten was born to the Connecticut shore, graduated from Hopkins in New Haven (1982) and the University of Rochester in Rochester, New York (BA 1986). Post college, she gained experiences in commercial real estate, financial services, workers compensation consulting and private golf club sales and membership development. She returned to Madison with her family from San Francisco and London where they had lived on and off from 1999 to 2009. She is thrilled to be back; she knows and loves every street and has friends and family on many of them.

Outside of real estate, she served on the Head's Advisory Board at Hopkins, Board Member to Madison Little League (Secretary and Director of  Baseball / Softball Uniforms), Board Advisor to Madison Investment Center, Volunteer to Women & Family Life in Guilford, former Secretary to her children's school PTO and "Booster Mom" to some of her children's sports teams. She won the Connecticut State Golf Association Father / Daughter Golf Championship and has won two other local golf Club Championships at The New Haven Country Club and The Pine Orchard Yacht and Country Club. She carries a 9.2 handicap index.

I highly recommend Kirsten for buying or selling a home on the Connecticut shoreline. Cornelia & Gregory Kamedulski

Kirsten was very helpful to me with the purchase of my condo in Stratford. I first met her when she helped my daughter and son-in-law buy their house in New Haven in 2021, and called her when I relocated to the area. She asked insightful questions about what I wanted and started showing me available properties. I appreciated her analysis of every property we saw and felt that she really understood what I wanted and needed. Once we located the right place, she provided helpful assistance at every step of the way and made the whole process easy for me. She was a pleasure to work with. Shelagh Smith

Kirsten Adams in CT market is an outstanding Realtor and business professionals. Highly communicative, personable, engaged and pays great attention to detail. If you are buying or selling, I reccomend Kirsten without reservation! Steven & Cherry Sager
We bought in Madison in 2014, and Kirsten was with us every step of the way. When military orders took us away several years later, she was there to help navigate the unknowns of a long-distance rental with several different tenants over the years. When it came time to sell in 2021, we knew that, with her expertise, it would be a smooth process (it absolutely was). Kirsten is a pro and has my most enthusiastic recommendation for helping handle ANY real estate transaction in the shoreline area. Katherine & Joshua Smith
My fiancé and I used Kirsten Adams as our realtor to buy our first house. She was fantastic. We searched for almost a year and Kirsten was there every step of the way to looking for homes that would fit our criteria, to each showing, to making an offer and finally closing on our first home! I highly recommend Kirsten to anyone who is looking for a realtor. Shannon & Brian Bergeron
Kirsten is amazing! She helped us find our dream beach house and was incredibly helpful throughout the entire process. We would absolutely recommend her to anyone looking to buy or rent a home. She was incredibly responsive, dedicated, and communicative throughout our entire purchase process. We were first-time home buyers and she walked us through the entire process explaining things step by step and gave honest advice and knowledge about each listing we viewed, as well as through our negotiations. We always looked forward to seeing her and trusted her word as gold. We HIGHLY recommend Kirsten and look forward to working with her again in the future. Emily & Don Ingham
kirsten adam’s was phenomenal Jodi & Jeff Indes
Kirsten was extremely helpful throughout the entire process. During our initial conversations, she asked many questions to really understand what we were looking for in our new home. Kirsten visited many homes on our behalf because we were from out of town, which was not necessary but very much appreciated. It was clear from our discussions that Kirsten has a firm grasp of the market, inside knowledge of the area , and great relationships with the people we dealt with throughout the process. Without hesitation, we would recommend Kirsten to family, friends or colleagues. Timothy & Jacquelyn Peabody
We have worked with Kirsten Adams multiple times over the past few years, and have been extremely satisfied. Steven Riccardi

Thank you so much for your guidance and expertise with finding, negotiating and buying our home in Guilford, We could not be happier!” Treb & Daniela, Guilford, CT
Thank you for everything you have done for us during the home purchase experience. You have gone above and beyond at every phase - from picking us up and showing us homes in a snow storm, to working out last minute details by phone, text and emails on the weekend. We were lucky to have you on our side. Thank you!” Tom & Beverly, now Madison, CT residents

I would not go through this process with anyone else! You are a fabulous agent and now a good friend. Thank you!” Julia & Rob, former Guilford residents
Thank you so much for your time, talent, advice & patience over the past year in helping us find our beach house. It was certainly a process for us to understand what it was that we most wanted for a life at the shore….You are A#1 in our book and we will happily pass on your name to anyone we know looking to buy or sell..” Jim & Deb, Westbrook , CT
Kirsten helped us with our real estate needs and was a pleasure to work with. We had tried several other avenues without success, and after we got her involved the quality and quantity of leads were abundant. Her attention to detail, combined with a her proactive and ethical nature, shined through the entire process. In addition, her real estate experience and knowledge of the local Madison market was of great value. With out a doubt, we would come back and utilize her services again. Jason & Agatha W., Madison, CT
After nearly two years of looking for a house on the Connecticut Shoreline with Kirsten Adams, we have finally closed on our dream vacation home. Kirsten and I spent days together looking at almost every water-area property from Guilford to Old Saybrook. Kirsten followed up on all kinds of questions and possibilities with a wonderful persistence as we looked at properties up and down the shoreline, before deciding to concentrate on specifically Madison. Kirsten knows the Madison market and was extremely helpful in locating houses that would suit our needs and our wish list. Greg & Connie K., Wilton, CT
Our Sotheby's agent, Kirsten Adams, has been amazing. We initially listed our house with another agent at a competitive brokerage. What a mistake! Our home had little interest and no showings for weeks. As soon as Kirsten took over, our situation changed dramatically. Kirsten helped us improve our online presence and fixed the price. These improvements have translated into real buyer interest. We know that November is not the best month to sell a house, but interest is now 10 fold what it was with the other agent in the better months. After years of living on the shoreline, we have had experience with a number of agents in the area. We have found Kirsten to be exceptional in her drive, motivation, and marketing savvy. I would not use any other agent.” Deb G., former Madison resident
My husband and I worked extensively with Kirsten during our recent home search. Kirsten was quick to identify our style and worked diligently to help us find the home that would be perfect for us. Kirsten managed the entire process with the highest levels of professionalism and, as an anxious homebuyer, I couldn't have been more pleased with her level of follow-up and tenacity when it came to getting answers for us. I do, would, and will recommend Kirsten to anyone looking for a realtor who puts their client's needs first; she is now our realtor and we will most definitely return to her for the next time! Craig & Noelle S., Madison, CT
When times are good, anyone can move a property. In more challenging times, it is clear how hard a real estate professional has to work to make things happen for both buyers and sellers. My compliments to you for your dogged determination and your ability to make all parties to the transaction happy with the end result. Keep up the great work. Philip J., Guilford, CT
My wife and I worked with Kirsten on a summer rental and were impressed with her honest, candid approach to our needs and desires. As important to us as her local knowledge was her unwavering support of our best interests. It is refreshing to know that your broker is working for you before all else. Jon W., New York City, NY
My wife and I feel fortunate to have had Kirsten Adams as our Realtor! She is thorough, patient, and, above all, knowledgeable about the markets in Madison, Guilford and their surrounding areas. We have purchased homes in NY and looked extensively at several markets in CT, and can honestly say that she was the most pleasant and accommodating realtor with whom we have had dealings. Her unique perspective includes her many roles: resident, real estate investor, mother and realtor; who can ask for more? ~ Ed McN., New York City, NY Earlier this year I had the pleasure of working with Kirsten Adams as my Realtor. After spending many summers at our beloved cottage in Black Point Beach, I knew it was time to move on. My children had grown, married and moved out of state. In order to fulfill my dream of moving to Florida to be closer to my children, I needed to sell my beach property. Luckily for me I met Kirsten, who took on the task of marketing and selling my home. Her caring and professional attitude made the process of letting go of a family home so much easier than I could have imagined. Kirsten went above and beyond the call of a Realtor. She handled every aspect of the sale with incredible professionalism. In short, she helped to make my dream come true! Thank you, Kirsten!! Debbie E., Hamden, CT
My husband and I worked with Kirsten in our cross-country relocation for selecting a long-term rental home. Kirsten was a true friend and a joy to work with! Her local knowledge made her an excellent resource for learning different neighborhoods, and she did a wonderful job of advocating on our behalf and keeping us informed when we were 3,000 miles away. She was eager and proactive, always on our side and excellent in regards to quickly following up with leads or other agents. Despite the fact that we were only looking for a rental home she made us feel prioritized and always had time to show us a home and make special inquiries on our behalf. We loved working with her and have recommended her to our companies for their relocation programs. She is an honest and up-front advocate and we were thrilled to have her on our side. Matt & Marina K., Old Saybrook, CT
During a recent corporate relocation, we were extremely fortunate to have worked with Kirsten Adams for our home search. Kirsten is a professional in every sense of the word, but her support of our family extended well beyond her tremendous knowledge of the shoreline, her professionalism or her negotiating skills. What truly set Kirsten apart, was the personal investment that she made to every aspect of our relocation? Through her incredible ability to listen to our needs and organize the information we needed, Kirsten has played an enormous role in not only finding us a house but insuring that we were ‘home”. I will always be thankful for her support. Ed & Kate N., now Madison, CT residents
Both my fiancée and I were very new to the Connecticut area, so we were unsure of where we wanted to settle. Kirsten was so understanding and accommodating to our needs in finding the right place for us and our soon to be baby. Her help found us the perfect area to live. Thank you! Jenner & Jaime R., Branford,

We relocated from the West Coast (San Francisco) and were unfamiliar with Connecticut geography and real estate markets. Kirsten showed us homes in several different towns to help familiarize us with the area. With her help we were able to focus our search, and we ultimately got a great deal on a great house in our desired neighborhood. Thanks Kirsten! Bob B. & Scott H., now Madison, CT residents
We first met Kirsten Adams at a random open house when we were visiting CT from California. When we decided to make a move to CT a year and a half later, we remembered her personal and professional approach. To us, personal and professional is the perfect combination in a Real Estate Agent. We know, without a doubt, that Kirsten cares more about helping us find our dream house than just making a sale. We have always said that Kirsten Adams is THE BEST find in CT and are so appreciative of her time, patience, expertise and friendship Richard & Cyndi G., now Milford residents
My wife and I were thoroughly impressed in our dealings with Kirsten. She is very knowledgeable and professional, two necessary attributes in today's real estate market. We liked the fact that she had professional references if we needed, but did not push them on us in any way. We found her to be available for us whenever we had a question and she helped make the entire transaction flow smoothly. We would highly recommend her to anyone looking to buy or sell a property! Peter & Justina K., Madison, CT
