Barb Jacobowitz and her family moved to Sherman from New York about 10 years ago after many years of day tripping to our beautiful area. She fell in love with Candlewood Lake, the surrounding natural beauty, and the quant New England towns, all while still being close to many amenities and the New York Metro area. Truly the best of both worlds.
Back in New York, Barb worked for many years in the fashion industry and owned her own clothing boutique before switching gears and beginning her career as a Realtor. Being a small business owner has provided her with a solid base to smoothly transition into the Real Estate industry. “I loved finding just the right pair of jeans to suit someone’s individual style and I apply that same passion to help my clients find their perfect home” she says. By being patient, kind, and listening to all her clients’ needs and concerns, she makes the buying and selling process as stress-free and positive as possible.
Most of all, the desire to share her love for this area of Connecticut that has so much to offer is what makes her a perfect fit as an agent at Luks Realty.
After a successful career in hairdressing, Sara transitioned into being a Real Estate agent with Luks Realty since 2002. Both industries showcase her close personal one-on-one contact with clients, especially listening to their wants and needs.
Having lived in the area all her life gives her a wealth of knowledge about the area which is an asset to her clients.
“Working with buyers and finding them that ‘perfect’ home is so rewarding… most of my clients and I continue a friendship even after the sales transaction is over.”
Sara, and her husband Todd, are also local business owners. They raised their two sons, Garrett and Grant, in New Fairfield and also have two playful Labradors!
