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.

Does Age Matter When Choosing a REALTOR®? Experience Does…But Maybe Not in the Way You Think

By Leave a Comment

Now and then I stumble across the same argument on social media. Someone will dismiss an experienced REALTOR® because they assume technology has passed them by. A few days later, someone else will insist they would never trust a newer agent because they haven’t “put in their time.”

I usually find myself shaking my head at both sides.

I’ve been selling real estate since I was eighteen years old. When I started, there was no internet. There were no smartphones, digital cameras, electronic signatures, or Zillow. If a buyer wanted to see a house, we opened a giant book of listings. If we wanted to market a property, we relied on newspaper ads, postcards, and a lot of shoe leather.

The business I entered in 1988 barely resembles the one I work in today. That’s a good thing.

What hasn’t changed is that my clients deserve someone who knows what they’re doing. The mistake people make is assuming that ability comes from age alone.

I’ve met brand-new agents who impressed me from the very beginning. They asked questions, sought out mentors, embraced every opportunity to learn, and worked incredibly hard for their clients. I’ve also worked alongside agents with decades of experience who are still curious enough to admit there is always something new to learn.

Some people decide that because they’ve been doing something for a long time, they’ve mastered it. That’s a dangerous place to be in any profession. Real estate isn’t static. Contracts change. Marketing changes. Consumer expectations change. The technology we use to help our clients changes constantly. If you’re doing business exactly the way you did ten years ago, you’re probably already behind.

When someone asks me how long I’ve been in real estate, I’m proud to say, “Since I was eighteen.” Not because I think the number alone makes me a better REALTOR®, but because I’ve spent those years adapting instead of standing still. Experience matters. It gives you perspective. It gives you problem-solving skills. It teaches you what can go wrong and, more importantly, how to fix it.

But experience without curiosity has an expiration date.

If you’re interviewing REALTORS®, ask about their experience. Then ask how they market homes today. Ask how they communicate with clients. Ask how they stay current with changes in the industry. Those answers will tell you much more than the date on the bottom of their real estate license.

After nearly four decades, I still learn something new all the time. I hope I always will. I can’t imagine telling a client they deserve anything less. Every transaction teaches me something. I can’t promise every transaction will be easy. Real estate has a way of keeping all of us humble.

What I can promise is that when something unexpected happens—and eventually something always does—there’s a good chance I’ve seen it before. And if I haven’t, I’ll figure it out.

Maybe that’s why I’m still curious after all these years. I still take classes. I still learn new technology. I still ask questions. I still look for better ways to do my job because my clients deserve more than yesterday’s experience.

They deserve someone who’s still learning today.

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.”
