Comment: To those in the know, Lake Placid real-estate is very unique. We had been looking for years for a house with land. We stumbled upon a house, and we are now very thankful it was listed by Merrill Thomas.Nick just happened to answer our phone call, late on a Saturday afternoon and set up a showing within one hour. They help guild us thru the entire process answering all of our questions.Even after we closed, they have been a continuing resource for suppliers and contractors.I must be honest; we were intimated at first, but Nick and Michael Martineau provided reassurance and for that we will be forever thankful.

Comment: It was a pleasure to work with Jonathan Gorgas to help me find a home in the Lake Placid region. Since I was out of town, he would send me listings that met the criteria for what I was looking for. After a few tweaks, he found a beautiful, waterfront home that became The One. He quickly answered my questions and addressed any concerns as they arose throughout the closing process. I appreciate everything he did in my search and would highly recommend his services to anyone looking in the area.

Comment: Exceptional Real Estate Professional - A True Partner in Your JourneyIn the fall of 2023, my partner and I had the pleasure of working with Anne Brewer from Merrill L. Thomas, who helped us purchase land outside Wilmington, NY to build our future Adirondack vacation home. I cant express enough how fortunate we feel to have had such an exceptional partner in our real estate journey. From start to finish, Anne’s commitment to excellence and unwavering dedication set a truly unparalleled standard.What sets Anne apart is her dynamic approach. She responded promptly to our initial inquiry, which led to a casual, yet productive first meeting held in a local coffee shop, not a stuffy board room. During this meeting, Anne listened actively to our requirements and used this information to anticipate our needs throughout the entire process. Anne also took the time to walk the 5.6-acre property in the morning before our initial meeting to ensure she could appropriately facilitate any questions we may have had. This level of attentiveness made us feel like we were a top priority.One remarkable aspect of Anne’s service was her commitment to going above and beyond. During the month of November, she had a previous commitment to guide a trip for a group of women in Ecuadors Amazon Jungle of South America. During her absence, she checked in regularly whenever she had access to the internet in the weeks leading up to our closing date, demonstrating an unparalleled dedication to her clients. This level of commitment is a rare find in the real estate industry.What also stood out was Anne’s generous sharing of her network of professionals within the ADK region. Recognizing the importance of a smooth closing process, she introduced us to a fantastic attorney, Janet Bliss who made the process seamless. Even after we have closed on our new property, Anne continues to help us by recommending local professionals for our building adventure. This additional support is above and beyond our expectations and showcases Anne Brewer’s commitment to ensuring her clients have the best resources available before, during, and after the sale.In conclusion, if you require a real estate professional who combines expertise with genuine care for their clients, look no further than Anne Brewer from Merrill L. Thomas. Working with Anne was not just a transaction; it was (and still is) a partnership, and we are grateful for her expertise and guidance. We wholeheartedly recommend Anne Brewer to anyone in search of a top-notch real estate professional in the ADK region.Allan & Carmen MacKenzieGuelph, Ontario, Canada

Comment: House hunting in the Adirondack winter seemed like a challenge, but Whit and Jen from Merrill Thomas helped us face it head-on. Jen even trudged through the snow to help us uncover hard-to-find properties! As first-time buyers, we thought the home-buying process would be daunting, but Jens patience and professionalism put our concerns at ease. Were truly grateful for our new home in the Adirondacks.

Comment: Anne Brewer was great to work with when we made the decision to buy property in the Jay area. She took the time to learn what interested us and had a keen eye for determining what properties matched what we were looking for. She was patient, professional, kind, and dedicated. She spent the time required to help us find the property, despite many road blocks outside of her and our control. She is also keenly familiar with the different areas around Lake Placid and the differences between them. She also didnt mind hiking through the woods and getting a little dirty to make sure each corner was explored. Wed highly recommend Anne.

Comment: My wife and I would like to give a HUGE SHOUT OUT to Stu Ruttan for the exceptional service he provided in buying our new home in Loon Lake, NY. We could not be happier with the support Stu provided and the home he found for us.Due to our need to sell our previous home before closing on our new one, it was a 10-month real estate marathon; from finding the right home, negotiating the initial offer/sales contract, multiple contract extensions due to delays in selling our previous home, and further delays waiting for our respective lawyers to complete the required paperwork. Through it all, Stu consistently provided exceptional advice and support that went far beyond what could be reasonably expected of an agent. Indeed, we have come to think of Stu as more of a trusted friend rather than simply the extremely competent real estate professional that he is.Sincerely, George & Anne Stowers

Comment: I can’t say enough great things about Anne Brewer, who recently assisted me with buying property in the St. Regis Lakes area. Anne is sincere, hard-working, professional, and an excellent communicator with keen listening skills and discerning judgement. Anne’s knowledge of the area and her network of local resources were invaluable in procuring the information I needed to feel confident in my decision to purchase. She patiently fielded the many questions I had and diligently followed up to find answers when she didn’t have them herself. As a testimony to her dedication, on one occasion when we planned to visit a water-access only property where motorized transport wasn’t available, she stoically kayaked there with several newly broken ribs so as not to cancel our appointment. In short, Anne was an absolute pleasure to work with and I recommend her enthusiastically to anyone looking to buy or sell real estate in the Adirondacks!

Comment: Anne Brewer was everything we needed and more. She was friendly, personable, responsive, and helpful from our first phone call to after closing. She brings a wonderful breadth of local knowledge and seems to enjoy a challenge. If we asked a question that she could not personally answer, she found the answer in an efficient and timely fashion. She snowshoed several properties to be sure she truly understood the qualities of each property. We relied on her to find a proper Lake Placid property while we resided out of state, never an easy task.She is a true professional and an absolute delight to work with. She was very concerned with us feeling comfortable in Lake Placid and even offered to introduce us to people with similar interests.We are delighted with our new property and can’t wait to start the building process and move to Lake Placid. Anne was a key part in making this dream a reality.We highly recommend her for your real estate needs.

Comment: We worked with Nick Politi of Merrill Thomas for several months until we found the perfect house. He and his team were amazing and helped us navigate the NY state home purchase process, which is completely different from our home state. Nick was responsive and provided tons of valuable recommendations along the way. He totally understood what we were looking for and didnt waste our time (virtually) showing us places that werent a match. He knows the region and the market as well as anyone possibly could. And above all else, Nick is a nice, genuine guy who was a pleasure to work with. We couldnt recommend the agency or agent more.

Comment: We were so very happy with the great job that Marie Morgan from Merrill-Thomas did as our agent when we recently purchased a vacation home in the Adirondacks. Marie is very experienced and provided great guidance and advice throughout the entire process. She knows the area very well, which we really appreciated because we were not from the area. She worked hard and kept in constant communication, keeping us up to date on status and helping to schedule the various inspections and walkthroughs. She gave us great advice on people we could work with on the items we would need for vital services. She is so very nice and pleasant to work with – we would highly recommend her. We are very happy to have our new home in the Adirondacks and are very grateful to Marie for making it possible. Thank you Marie!

They have excellent knowledge of the real estate market in Lake Placid and kept us on track with all the steps and everything we needed, They are clearly well respected in the area, which made working with other vendors associated with our properties much easier. Kris Wheeler was our first agent, Christina Eccleston our second. We now work with Merrill Thomas to handle all the rental logistics of the two condos and are delighted with their professional, responsive and caring service.

Comment: The team at Merrill Thomas and specifically Brooks Reynolds have just guided us through an emotional parting from our beautiful Gull Pond camp. From our first conversation with Brooks until the day we closed the sale, Brooks advised us in a calm, friendly, professional way as we went from the bidding process to the final closing. She helped us make important decisions and allayed any anxiety we were at times experiencing. Because Merrill Thomas has so many active agents, the camp was shown numerous times even with snow on the ground and a buyer was found in a few months. We could not be more pleased with the service provided by all involved with this sale and we wish to thank them all. Jack and Kathleen Koch

Comment: Zowie Lucas helped us find and purchase a home in Lake Placid in 2006. She showed us many homes before we were able to find the right one. We were so pleased with her work that when we needed to sell our house in 2010, we listed our home with Zowie. The market conditions could not have been worse but Zowie did an amazing job and the house sold in a reasonable time frame and at a satisfactory price. We would recommend Zowie and Merrill Thomas to both buyers and sellers based on our experience.

We were very pleased that our purchase easily moved to closing!We would suggest Merrill L. Thomas, Inc. for your real estate needs in the Tri Lakes region, and strongly endorse Zowie Lucas.

I was not always around and Kris always extended herself to make things happen in my absence. And I would not hesitate to recommend her and this agency for a sale. Check out their web site and do yourself a favor - go with Merrill Thomas and ask for Kris.
