Helping people make smart moves in Western Massachusetts and Northwestern Connecticut

I’m Lesley Lambert, a REALTOR® with Park Square Realty, and I’ve been helping people buy and sell homes for more than 35 years. I work with clients throughout Western Massachusetts and Northwestern Connecticut, with a special heart for the communities I know best because I’ve lived, worked, raised my family, and built my life here.

Real estate is rarely just about bedrooms, bathrooms, and square footage. It is about timing, family, finances, change, and sometimes the very real emotion of leaving a home that has held years of your life. My job is to help you think it through clearly, market your home strategically, and move forward with confidence, not pressure.

Whether you’re preparing to sell, starting to explore your next move, or simply trying to understand what today’s market means for you, I’m here as a local resource, a steady guide, and someone who will tell you the truth kindly.

May 28, 2026 By Lesley Lambert Leave a Comment

Every year around this time, somebody asks:

“When are the fireworks?”

So rather than making everyone hunt through Facebook posts and random websites, here’s a quick guide to some of the fireworks displays happening around Western Massachusetts this summer.

Friday, June 26

📍 Blandford — 9:15 p.m. at the Blandford Fair
(Rain date: July 10)

📍 Holyoke — 9:15 p.m. at Holyoke Community College

And honestly, as much as I love the fireworks themselves, my favorite part has always been everything around them.

The lawn chairs. The kids with glow sticks. The ice cream lines. Running into half the people you know. The feeling that summer has officially arrived in Western Massachusetts.

If I’ve missed any local celebrations, add them in the comments, and I’ll update the list.

What My Clients Think

“We spoke with 2 other brokers before Lesley. They both told us we needed to make substantial investments in the home before selling it. They also recommended low selling points and were in a word “pushy”. Lesley felt we only needed to do a couple minor upgrades and suggested a selling point which was about $15,000 higher than the previous high. She was spot on with everything. Our time frame to get the house on the market shifted due to a family members illness. She was understanding, considerate, respectful and patient. We can not praise or recommend her enough. Lesley is a gem.”

“I have always and will always continue to use Lesley Lambert as my realtor. It has always been a positive as well as fun experience! Lesley is the best! Loree Cloud Westfield Mass”

“Lesley Lambert made herself very available under limited circumstances. We live in Arizona and were buying a summer residence in Southwick, MA. She worked with our daughter during viewings, inspections and walk through in our absence. She made sure that we were updated during the entire process. We were very pleased with her professional work in helping us get a lawyer and the remote sale. Rosalie and John Dialessi, Mesa, AZ”

“Lesley is a real pleasure to work with and manages difficult circumstances and people with skill and a disarming demeanor that is critical in successfully dealing people and their individual circumstances. I thank her sincerely for her work. Paul L, Westfield, MA”

“I was very happy with my choice of Lesley Lambert and Park Square Realty as my broker. I was very satisfied with Leslie and also with the professionals she referred me to (photographers, lawyers, contractors, etc). There were many showings of my house from the minute it hit the market, and I accepted an offer within one week of listing. Lesley walked me through the entire process and was very professional. Ali, Westfield”

“Lesley Lambert helped us find our home in Westfield, MA. She was fun, efficient and aware of the possible fits for our family and lifestyle. She is very current with technology and connected with the community so she is always up to date. Leslie is the sort of agent who we will ask to help us again when we are in the market. She is definitely one of the best!”

“Lesley Lambert is professional, and thoroughly knowledgeable in the surrounding communities. This spring, we listed our family's condo, represented by Lesley. Lesley had sold our previous home, too. This time, Lesley sold our family condo. We successfully closed less than a month. We feel fortunate to have Lesley guide us through the contract process of what can be otherwise overwhelming.”
