COMPASS, the leading independent brokerage in the nation, announces a new partnership with Karla Murtaugh Homes, led by Karla Murtaugh.
Karla is highly regarded as a top realtor in Ridgefield and is known for her keen industry knowledge, unrivaled attention to detail, and customer-first approach. The Karla Murtaugh Homes Team specializes in residential real estate and has a client base across Fairfield and northern Westchester Counties.
“I am excited to join a fast-growing and independent company renowned for focusing its technology and support towards what agents need,” said Karla. “COMPASS’s fresh and innovative take on the modern real estate industry lends a renewed vigor to our business. Their commitment to client service is second-to-none, and that is what we are all about too."
The collaboration comes at a time when Compass is heavily investing in digital tools. Backend Al-powered tools allow agents to create forward-thinking marketing. In addition, innovative programs such as Compass Concierge, allow homeowners to make cosmetic upgrades at no upfront cost to them (the cost is recovered after the house sells) benefitting the sellers bottom line and the buyers experience when touring a home.
The Karla Murtaugh Team is composed of experts across disciplines including Karla Murtaugh, Sally Walter and Jana Williams who are licensed agents. Jana also oversees marketing operations, while Jay Graygor and Kate Fitzpatrick handle creative and social media duties. The team is also widely known for creating detailed market reports that are regularly covered in the media.
COMPASS’s partnership with Karla Murtaugh homes also marks the national brokerage's entrance into Ridgefield. Currently, Compass has offices in Greenwich, Darien, Stamford, Westport, Fairfield, and New Canaan in Connecticut as well as Westchester County. With the addition of Karla Murtaugh Homes, it broadens its market footprint, something that the firm has been doing across the country. Over the last year, Compass has expanded into 14 new markets including St. Louis, Minneapolis, and Charlotte. It is also the top brokerage in key markets including New York, San Francisco, Los Angeles, Boston, and more.
“We are a service-oriented team. We pride ourselves on providing the best market knowledge, the best client care, and the most comprehensive marketing to our clients,” said Karla. “We always provide a platinum level of service regardless of the price point.”
