Connor and the Dowd Team delivered outstanding service in selling my property on Aquidneck Island. Their expertise was evident throughout the process: from providing strategic consultations well in advance to refine our approach, to expertly designing and listing the home on the MLS, hosting multiple highly effective open houses, and skillfully guiding the transaction to a seamless close. They truly excelled at every step, far surpassing my expectations.
Working with Colleen Hagarty and The Connor Dowd Team was the best decision we made when selling our Dads house after he passed. From Day 1, Colleen was energetic, knowledgeable and full of expert advice. She worked closely with us to navigate any challenges and everything she recommended for us to do and not do was spot on. Colleen made the process so simple and transparent for us. She provided immediate responses to our myriad of questions and concerns shared her resources, and was super friendly and encouraging throughout the process.

We worked with Ellen Oaklund on our purchase and sale in Cumberland, RI. Ellen was fantastic through out the process. She excels in communication and lobbying for her clients and that was very apparent. Ellen also has an excellent network of professionals at her disposal which was evident on our home inspection referral. On top of that the Dowd team was a huge help from top to bottom. We received daily updates on the ongoings with each transaction which was very comforting during a stressful process. I would highly recommend Ellen and the Dowd Team to anyone purchasing and/or selling any property!!!
Colleen had immeasurable patience with me and went above and beyond with every detail from lenders/insurance/inspectors and so much more. Her communication was always consistent and easy to contact. Colleen stayed in touch from day one to closing and made sure everything was perfect. I could not have done it without her; I don't believe you could find a better choice for a real estate agent and I will recommend her until she retires. Thank you, Colleen! As well as Kalyan and friends at the Dowd Team - Keller Williams Coastal.
I had met wi th quite a few realtors. What set the Dowd team apart; they didn't just give me a price point, they gave me a plan on how we were going to get there. I was sold on the plan, not the price. I believe the plan was executed as well as it could be. The market is definitely turning from a seller's market. I could not be happier with my experience and the results working with the Dowd team
Highly recommend! I knew Keller Williams Coastal was the agency to place trust in from my first meeting with Connor Dowd. He professionally and confidently provided me with a detailed marketing package that was informational and made complete sense. Communication with Connor and his team was outstanding and in just 14 days we had a purchase and sales that took us to a closing in less than 8 weeks. It was smooth sailing from start to finish with Connor Dowd and his Keller Williams Coastal team. Many thanks.
Connor and his team did an amazing job selling an investment property for us. Connor took the time to walk us thru what we should do to help prepare the property for sale. From the listing to the photographs they really did an outstanding Job making the property look its best. They made the process so simple before we knew it the property was sold... I would not hesitate to use The Dowd Team & Keller Williams Coastal Again and I highly recommend them. Thanks!
I have nothing but great things to say about our experience selling our Portsmouth home with Connor and The Dowd Team. I called Connor with an impossibly short timeline of just a few days to get our house on the market and he made it happen with ease. The listing photos were spectacular and the team was very communicative and helpful throughout the whole process. Not only that, but he sold our house in one day for well above our asking price.
Connor goes above and beyond for his clients. Selling your home can be overwhelming and the Dowd team made it all feel easy. They scheduled everything, communicated so well that I never needed to ask questions. They are so on top of things from beginning to end. Best experience working with a realtor.
I was lucky enough to work with Adriaan from the Dowd team. Adriaan provided exceptional service as my realtor during my first home-buying experience. His deep market knowledge and dedication to understanding my needs were evident. Throughout the process, Adriaan's communication was prompt and thorough, guiding me with expertise and ensuring I felt confident at every step. He negotiated effectively, and secured my dream home within my budget. I highly recommend Adriaan to anyone seeking a reliable and dedicated realtor for a seamless home-buying journey.
I had the pleasure of collaborating with Christina Logan and the team at Keller Williams Dowd Team, and my experience was truly remarkable.

Christina demonstrated exceptional professionalism and dedication throughout the buying process., and her commitment to delivering top-notch service made me feel grateful and satisfied with my decision to work with them.
We had a wonderful experience with Connor and his team when we were selling our father's condominium. Connor provided insightful guidance as we prepared for the sale, helped us weed through multiple offers, and negotiated a closing that accommodated our needs. Meg on his team was outstanding. She was very responsive to our questions and helped move the closing process along. I highly recommend Connor and team if you are planning on selling your home in the future.
Ellen was absolutely wonderful! Words can not express how grateful I am for her and her team. Ellen was incredibly helpful, patient and knowledge throughout this process.

I worked with Ellen Oaklund at The Dowd Team on buying my investment property. She exceeded my expectations and made everything effortless throughout the process. Ellen was super detailed and available as needed. I would highly recommend Ellen, and I would reach out to her for future transactions. Thank you, Ellen, for a job well done!
Connor recently sold my home in RI, and I would strongly recommend The Dowd Team if you are looking for a realtor. Connor's experience and knowledge of the area made the entire process a successful one. He and his staff are professional and reliable, and they kept me informed of every detail from start to finish. I would not hesitate to use The Dowd Team again for buying or selling a home.

Navigating this market and accomplishing your goals are guaranteed to be easier with her on your team.
When my father was ready to sell his home of 52 years, we were happy to have found Connor Dowd and the Dowd Team / Keller Williams Coastal. Connor took the time to listen and understand the needs of my father, and acknowledged the emotions that surround leaving a home after 52 years. Connor and his team showed empathy, understanding and patience throughout the whole process. Connor provided his expertise in helping us understand market conditions, price setting, offer management and closing procedures. He was very attentive and responsive to our questions and took the time to ensure we felt confident with every step of the process. Meg, Dowd Team Manager, was an invaluable source of support throughout the process, providing lightning fast follow up. She did a wonderful job supporting us through all the details and ensured we had everything needed during the sale process. I highly recommend Connor, Meg and the whole Dowd Team.
Connor runs a well oiled team of knowledgeable and experienced realtors. My wife and I worked with Connor to set up the sale of our condo. Connor was flexible with our schedule and was extremely responsive. Once Connor came in to view the property he gave us multiple suggestions to set it up properly for sale. After that, Connor passed the majority of the responsibilities over to his team. The team in house manager was quick with handling logistics of the open house and gathering of information for sale. Our main point of contact was Kelsey Martin who was extremely responsive and flexible with our schedule. She is extremely knowledgeable of the area and whenever we had a question, she had the answer. Within 3 days of going live with our listing, we had an above listed offer accepted. We would 100% recommend Kelsey Martin to anyone looking to sell or buy. Prior to the sale of our condo we worked with Kelsey to purchase a new house in the area. Kelseys performance on the purchase gave us confidence in working with her for the sale of our condo.
Connor was great! He was confident, knowledgeable, and professional. He provided clear guidance and really ran a smooth process. Our house had an offer in 5 days and closed in a little over a month. There was always clarity. We were very pleased!
Ellen is a phenomenal realtor! Her responsiveness, patience, knowledge, and neighborly personality made our experience as out-of-state first-time home buyers much less stressful. We highly recommend her and the Dowd team to anyone on the market for a new home!
Connor Dowd and team were marvelous to work with, and really delivered for us. Knowledgeable about the Newport market and real estate trends in general, he convinced us that putting our home on the market before the 2023 aEURoespring rushaEUR? might be a good way to go. The result: three offers and a sale above asking price within a week of going live. We could not have been more pleased.
I used Connor as my selling agent twice, and he helped me set the price, set up professional photographers who did a beautiful job, and got me under contract within one month. It was a very smooth experience. Hes a true professional and knows the market extremely well.
We got to work with Colleen Hagarty and it was such a pleasure. She answered all our questions and was a great resource to have with us when we looked at houses. We honestly missed having her opinion when we went to open houses without her. The whole team at Dowd was awesome - they responded to my panicked emails about missing documents (which weren't missing) and getting everything to the right people (which they did flawlessly). We even changed lenders at a critical time and they just went with the flow. We're so happy to have worked with Colleen and her team.
We had the sincere pleasure of working with Ellen Martin Oaklund and The Dowd Team during our recent home purchase in North Kingstown, RI. Ellen is the most responsive, attentive and efficient partner we've worked with and recommend her to first time (or any time) home buyers. She made the process as painless as possible and answered my (many) questions thoughtfully and with enthusiasm. We really appreciate the whole team's help getting us over the finish line - and we're so happy in our new home! -Maggie + Mike Duffy
Ellen made the whole process of buying my first home remarkably easy and stress-free. Knowing nothing going in, she was fantastic at providing information and a wealth of industry knowledge to guide me through finding the home that was right for me. She was extremely responsive and communicated very clearly what was needed on my end/decisions I needed to make, and what would happen next. It was reassuring to have someone I could fully lean on to answer the numerous questions I had throughout the home-buying process. My experience working with Ellen and the rest of The Dowd Team was phenomenal and far exceeded my expectations; I absolutely recommend working with them for any real-estate needs!
Connor Dowd and his team was nothing short of outstanding aEUR" real estate experts, professional, and great to work with. Connor knows the market and every question, every concern we had was answered quickly and always with a smile. We would go with them again in a heartbeat and would recommend them highly to anyone. You cant go wrong with the Connor Dowd team!
I can't recommend Ellen and the whole Connor Dowd team strongly enough. I contacted Ellen before moving up to the area and she got started right away helping me find a house that was the perfect fit for me. While this wasn't my first time buying a home I still had a lot of questions, especially as houses are a lot different in New England than where I am from. Ellen was very patient and quick to answer any questions and concerns I had and did an outstanding job helping me find the perfect house for a great price in a very competitive market. The whole process was so quick and easy all I had to do when I finally moved to the area was sign a few papers and everything was done.
If you have the opportunity to work with the Dowd Team, specifically Christina Logan, jump at it. She is professional, knowledgeable, and dedicated. We gave her a 3 week window to find us a home before we had to renew a rental lease and in an almost non-existent available market she delivered! Not only that but our close happened in 20 days from offer to signing with keys in hand-20 days!!!! She has a quick reply time and no question is insignificant! We couldn't have been more happy with the Dowd Team, specifically Christina Logan!
We started working with Colleen Hagerty and the Dowd Team to find us the perfect vacation home in Newport. She was attentive and got to know our likes and dislikes. She did everything right! As a result we found our perfect property, negotiated a deal and closed in 24 days. We are thrilled. We could not have had a more pleasant experience!
We couldnt be happier with our experience with Colleen at Connor Dowd! She was professional, patient, and supportive from beginning to end. As first time homebuyers, we didnt know what we didnt know, but Colleen walked us through every step and secured us a great deal on a house! Definitely the most painless experience we could have had!
I cant say enough good things about our experience working with KW/The Connor Dowd Realty Group to sell our home. From the first time we met to the closing, they were knowledgeable and supportive. They knew exactly how to price our home and their marketing strategy and beautiful photography got it sold in less than a week aEUR" with multiple bids and a final offer that was over our asking price. Thank you Connor, Ellen, Meg and the whole Team, we are so grateful for your expertise and professionalism!
Best experience Ive had with any realtor she was knowledgeable, and made sure to inform me on everything and anything I was going to potentially have to encounter ! Communication was everything with her she made sure to stay in contact with me everyday with updates and prices on new apartments she made me really confident in managing my move within 2 months I would highly recommend her for anyone whos seeking a move and I will be continuing to work with her when seeking to buy a house !
I highly recommend the Connor Dowd Realty Group for any Realtor needs in Newport/Middletown and surrounding areas in Rhode Island. Connor and his team really pulled through during a challenging sale that required a lot of coordination. I could not have done it without this great team working the details and making sure it was all correct for an on-time closing. Well done and I wish you all the success for the future.
We were so fortunate to have found Connor Dowd and the team at Keller Williams when we moved back to Portsmouth. As our Realtor, he helped us find the right house in the right neighborhood for the right price. We truly felt like he genuinely cared that we selected the best home to fit our needs and the needs of our family. This was very important to my wife and I as we moved back to our home town with our own two children so the home had to be just right. He was patient and understanding as we looked at homes over several months and came prepared with the right questions to ask, features to look for and right price. We had a fabulous homebuying experience and we thank you for that.Jonathan Pelletier
One of our friends who is a realtor out of state connected us with the Connor Dowd Reality Group and we ended up getting paired with Colleen Hagarty. Colleen is a hands on realtor, there for us every step of the way; before the sale, during the sale and after the sale. She was always available to answer our questions, ease our anxiety and talk us through every option, which was extremely helpful for us as first time home buyers. If you are looking for a realtor who you can trust, is highly dependable and genuinely cares about her clients, we highly recommend Colleen. Trust us when we say, you will not be disappointed.
She made our retirement years a "Dream come true!" We have reached that time where we wanted to be free of home ownership and all the responsibilities that come with it. My husband knew of the housing market changes and we have owned our home for the last 30+ years. To say he was a little nervous is an understatement. Other agents we had interviewed were pushy and insensitive to our trepidations. We weren't sure of what to do after the home sold. One visit with Ellen made all of those fears disappear.She let US set dates and timelines! She respected our home during showings. All contacts were immediately communicated with us. The office itself, Meg, especially, was SO patient with our limited technological skills. I could write a novel about our positive experiences! Our home sold within a month, to a very nice couple (not the first flipper), above asking price! Everything, including a very thorough inspection process, went so smoothly! The best surprise was the closing! our past two were SO drawn out and so many documents! The attorney came to our home, thoroughly explained what the terms were, and was done in less than 30 minutes! We did not have to go to the buyers closing at all. At the end of it all, we had an apartment on the waterfront, money in the bank, and a nice investment plan for the rest of our lives. Thank you Ellen and Team Dowd!!
Being first time homebuyers, my wife and I were very leery of the ordeal we were about to undertake. The entire Connor Dowd Team was exceptionally professional and courteous throughout our home-buying adventure. Specifically, our agent Colleen Hagarty was instrumental in ensuring the entire process was as stress-free as possible. From the very beginning, Colleen took the time to ensure she understood our needs/desires. She was always available to answer questions and she provided invaluable guidance and recommendations as we narrowed our search, found the home we desired, and closed the deal! We highly recommend that you select the Connor Dowd Team to represent you in your future home purchase or sale.
Ellen from the Connor Dowd Realty Group was absolutely fantastic. She took time to understand my personal life situation and tailored and approach unique to me that got the job done in the short time frame I was working with. She is responsive, empathizing, and brilliant at what she does. I will continue to use her in the future and recommend everyone do the same! Thank you Ellen!

Colleen was our realtor and she made our first home buying experience so so easy! With this crazy market it was easy to get discouraged but Colleen always stayed positive and got us into showings ASAP that eventually led to us finding our perfect first home! If youre looking to buy a home the Connor Dowd Realty group is the way to go!
Colleen was our realtor from The Connor Dowd Realty Group who helped us find and purchase our first home. We cannot say enough great things about her! Colleen was professional throughout this experience and always responded to all of our messages promptly. Colleen is very knowledgeable and provided us with lots of resources and referrals on different services to help us purchase our house. We would highly recommend her when you are looking to buy a home! Colleen was wonderful to work with and exceeded our expectations.
I was first recommended to The Connor Dowd Realty Group by my friend Rachel Longa. I had to sell my grandfathers house in a small amount of time, and had just went through a lengthy and overwhelming Estate process due to COVID. When it was finally time to sell, I reached out to the team, and had a response immediately. Since that moment, they made everything easier. Connor and his team swept in and took so much off my plate. They were on top of every phone call and email, always keeping me up-to-date with the process and answering every little question I had. They told me exactly what I needed to do for the house and didn't force me to spend unnecessary amounts of money on fixtures or tedious things. They walked me step-by-step through everything, seeing as though this is the first house I've ever sold, and provided me local and affordable contacts to help with everything else (cleaning, inspections, etc). When pricing the house they made sure we would get the most out of it while spending the least amount of money in additional fees. I am so grateful for Connor, Meg, and everyone else that played a role in helping me and my family through this process. I highly recommend Team Dowd!!!
I recently worked with the Connor Dowd group in the sale of my condo. I was highly impressed with their responsiveness, pricing evaluation and customer responsiveness. Within ten days I received and accepted an offer on my property.
I was an TX based buyer looking for a second property in Newport. Not knowing anyone, I cast a wide net for realtors. Being a business owner, I respond to speed and urgency. Connor was the first one to call me which gave him a leg up on his competition. When we spoke, I learned he had over 20 years experience selling RI real estate. Adding thorough understanding of the market to his speed and urgency made him an easy choice. Interestingly, two of his previous personal homes were available and in my wheelhouse. One sold while we were looking. The other one was my second choice. I just spent my first night in the winner, and I can say I'm extremely happy with the outcome. Buying a house remotely in a market like summer/fall 2020 was an interesting challenge. Limited inventory coupled with rising prices is the ideal sellers market. I found Connor to be professional, direct, and accommodating. Adding patience to the speed, urgency, and market understanding was a winning formula for me. He was also more interested in the right deal for me instead of the quick sale for him. He quickly figured out what I wanted and streamlined the process. Ive purchased several properties as an out of town buyer. This was the best experience by a long shot. I strongly recommend Connor and his team.
Connor Dowd is a brilliant and personable real estate agent and a true gentleman. He recently sold a property we owned that was incredibly unique as well as incredibly challenging to find the perfect buyer. He was responsive, creative and a true joy to work with.
