We feel so lucky we met Chris during our home search. She is incredibly knowledgeable about Barrington and the surrounding area, which was key when relocating from a different state. With her network and deep ties to the community, Chris helped us to see several properties before they came to the market, and always had her pulse on upcoming listings. She learned exactly what we were looking for, and ultimately helped us find it in our target neighborhood. We would absolutely recommend Chris to anyone looking for a new home in Rhode Island.

Chrissy Ardente was absolutely the right choice for us! That very first day we called her she drove to Tiverton to check out the property while we were out of town. She had all the right contacts, from the well and septic to masonry and roofing to lawyers and insurance providers. Everything from that point on was seamless in what would’ve otherwise been a very bumpy road. We even ran into problems with the lender because the property had fallen into slight disrepair… not to worry though - Chrissy was on the phone with the lender and ensured that every concern they had was addressed to satisfaction. She made herself available around the clock, and was there for us 24/7. Without Chrissy we wouldn’t be living in our dream home today. We still have a long road ahead of us and I’m certain that she will continue to help us along the way. She is an absolute superstar. Thank you, Chrissy!

I really enjoyed working with Christina. She knew the Barrington market well and helped me secure a home here. She was very professional and made everything seamless for me. I look forward to not only considering her my realtor, but also my friend.

We chose Chris Ardente first because of her exceptional and long standing market knowledge, and she more than proved that decision was the right one. She is wise, efficient, and incredibly perceptive, with outstanding people skills that made the entire process smooth and enjoyable. She was always prompt and clear in her communication, truly receptive to our needs, and had a deep understanding of every element required to advise us strategically and make the deal happen. Not an easy task as we were out of state. Beyond her professionalism, she simply was a joy to work with. We couldn’t recommend her more highly.

Faced with selling our custom family home of 50 years, Christina (Chrissie) Ardente and her team at Residential Properties Ltd. did a superior job. Most home sales are highly personal experiences, not just monetary transactions. Chrissie handled seemingly limitless details with a blend of sensitivity and practicality. Her holistic approach included an understanding of our family's needs and expectations, as well as knowledge of the neighborhood and its suitability to prospective buyers. “Hands-on” understates her personal investment of time and energy to find just the right buyer, not to mention the numerous interactions with multiple family members and service providers. Chrissie’s expertise throughout the process produced both excellent regional marketing and the engagement of qualified service providers, all working toward showing the property at its best. In the end, the buyer could not have been a better match for our former family home. Christina Ardente and her expert team truly delivered! We couldn’t have been in better hands.

Recently I had the privilege of working with Christina in selling my Aunts house in Warren, RI. Due to Christina's work ethic I find it most necessary to commend Christina on her professionalism and utmost steadfast approach to selling this home. It was far from an easy task, but one that she carried out holding many "open houses" and always being available to meet with potential buyers. She was always available to respond to my phone calls and to call me with updated information as it occured. Based on my very positive experience with her I can't say enough about Christina except to highly recommend her to anyone in need of a real estate agent. She will work hard with you and for you to get the job done!

Looking for a house when you live over an hour away can be difficult and scary, especially when you aren't that familiar with the area. Christina made us feel like we were locals in the know. She kept us up to date on the latest listings, and because of her deep ties in the area, knew the inside scoop on how the local realtors think and coached us on what was the right offer. Needless to say, we get the house of our dreams at an amazing price and could not have done it without the help of Christina.

Christina Ardente was a pleasure to work with from beginning to end during our recent relocation to Rhode Island. Not only did she provide a wealth of knowledge about the region and listings in our desired areas, she also took a genuine interest in the needs of our family. Her high level of professionalism, and her open line of communication helped us to feel comfortable throughout the process. My husband and I would recommend her services and will not hesitate to work with her again in the future. J. and J. Flesner

Christina is a remarkable detailed and well organized professional. She was totally dedicated to selling my property and always went the extra mile to ensure it happened. She covered all the bases before I even knew they needed to be covered. She has an excellent rapport with all the necessary people associated with selling a property so any issues that arose were quickly addressed. Her professionalism, efficiency and natural graceful interactions are purely amazing! She is so motivated, energetic, willing and reliable. What she does, the way she does it you can’t learn, it comes naturally. She has a gift and is truly an exceptional realtor. Thank you Christina for providing such exceptional service. Sandra Nawrocki
