In trying to sell my $2M+ house in Puerto Rico, I found myself entangled in Caribbean legalities, procrastination and general confusion. I enlisted Ken to serve as my long-distance "advisor and consultant." He proved to be an invaluable resource in guiding me through the marketing process. He is uncommonly proactive and supremely professional -- a true gem to have on your side.

Ken is a longtime family friend and capable realtor. He's a no nonsense source of real estate 'vitals' in Fairfield County, CT. His experience as a former IBM'er and Darien homeowner is a major plus because he understands that schools, sense of community and business experience makes for quality real estate representation. In short, he knows his stuff and knows how to be helpful when it comes to finding the 'right' home.

I found Ken by chance on an internet hunt for a house in 1998, when I was being transferred back to the States. From the outset he was highly professional, knowledgeable and dependable, so my wife and I decided on him to help us find a home in Darien. This was a tall order, as we were living in South America, and we were not at all familiar with the neighborhood. We were...more

ken is a great guy i'm proud to call "friend." We didn't buy in Darien for personal reasons, and ken was honest enough to suggest we go elsewhere, losing a commission but gainiing a friend. i trust him completely.

Ken helped my family buy our house in Novermber 2007. The street is one of top streets in Darien. The house has everything we want and was at a reasonable price even at the top of the real estate market. Ken knows Darien very well and had always given us good advices. We have been living in our house for 5 years and would recommend Ken to any one.

Mr. Allen helped us purchased our first home in the United States in 2007 and we love our house. He understands clients' needs, knows the market and is able to help clients with almost everything in our daily life . He is an excellent agent- I would say he is the best in town! We have referred Mr. Allen to our friends since 2007.
