What They’re Saying...

Larry Burns is a consummate professional. He is enthusiastic and extremely knowledgeable of the market conditions, how to best prepare a property prior to offering it, and to, indeed, promote the property. During the entire process, from listing to advertising to closing, Larry was an invaluable resource often going far above and beyond our expectations. WE were out of the state and needed to hire various contractors to prepare the land for market; Larry suggested several reputable professionals all of whom provided excellent services. He also met with each of them at the property on our behalf and provided us with timely updates regarding their progress. He even fearlessly blazed a trail through the brambles to estimate the depth of the lot prior to our hiring a tree service. Larry not only delivered extensive feedback to us on his showings of our property, but he also combined that information with his knowledge of the market and its dynamics to recommend changes in our approach. Those changes led to immediate results and ultimately to a successful closing. I highly recommend Larry Burns and would not hesitate to utilize his expertise and services again. He was essential in crafting a successful marketing strategy specific to our desire for a quick closing and a high return. He was indispensable in guiding us on which improvements to the land would most enhance the value and marketability of the property. And, Larry was irrepressible in zealously representing our wishes and our property throughout the process. He is an exceptional ambassador for you and your property. In Larry you will find a rare amalgam of diplomacy, a strategic understanding of the overall process that is augmented rather than hindered by his attention to detail, and masterly negotiation skills. Finally, on a personal level, Larry is a truly remarkable and wonderful person. In every interaction we had he was positive and good humored, honest and forthright, and intelligent and wise. It was a pleasure to work with Larry and I look forward to seeing him when I next visit the Westerly area.

As a corporate owner, our Board of Directors needed significant assurance in the local knowledge and market expertise for Watch Hill, RI and this unusual property. Larry Burns and the Marketing support from Lila Delman were exactly what was needed. From the photo shoot to the closing, this was an exceptional experience.

Daniel Justynski: Director of Real Estate Sisters of Mercy of the North Americas; Watch Hill, RI

I placed my home on the market and Larry sold it two days later! He was extremely conscientious when marketing my home. He hired a professional photographer who took great photos of the house. He also had a drone take aerial shots of the house which is a brilliant way to market waterfront or water view property. When showing the printed and online materials to friends and others trying to sell their homes, they asked who my agent was. I highly recommend Larry to anyone selling his/her property. besides being a top-notch marketer, he is personable, responsive, studious and has the sellers best-interest in mind.

Bob Arnold; Westerly, RI

From the moment we met with Larry when he introduced himself, until the completion of selling our home he was a consummate professional. His team player mentality and calm demeanor really put us at ease as we prepared to step away from the house that we loved. With apparent longtime experience in the market, his confidence in making sure we were doing all the right things to prepare our house for sale kept us focused on the important things. Frankly, he went well above and beyond what anyone would expect from a real estate professional. His attention to the smallest details of our concerns made us feel like he sincerely cared for our successful sale beyond a financial reward. In fact, we actually feel as if we have added a friend to our circle of people who care. BTW he also has a great sense of humor which is certainly an added plus!

Howard & Anna Fleischer; Westerly, RI

We were so fortunate to have Larry Burns as our realtor when we sold our beach house. He was easy to work with, knowledgeable about the local market (and second home sales in general) and helped us manage our sale from afar. He prepped the house beautifully, generated strong interest in the property, and communicated with us at every step in the process. The marketing materials he helped create were stunning and effective. He’s a calm, thoughtful professional who really knows his business. And a pleasant individual to work with. We highly recommend Larry!

George & Marcia Finnegan; Shelter Harbor, RI

Larry was wonderful to work with as a selling broker this year. He is an expert on our area, Shelter Harbor, and he works hard to highlight the special attributes of this community to prospective buyers. We put our house on the market just before the global pandemic hit, so no one knew what to expect. Larry adjusted on the fly and was extremely resourceful during the process. I highly recommend him!

Kate Jones; Shelter Harbor, RI

We recommend Larry Burns without any reservations. He was the perfect agent for us- flexible, polite, very communicative, honest, knowledgeable about the local market, and superb with marketing. Living in CT, we felt like Larry went out of his way to make sure we didn't make any needless trips to the house and was always in touch with us after he had an interaction with the buyers. He worked through the Thanksgiving holiday to accommodate the buyers and keep the process moving, going as far as to crawl under the house to turn the water on and off. What a guy! Overall, he was just super sincere and pleasant- and all-around nice person to work with.

Rick & Martine Kublbeck; Misquamicut, RI

I wanted to take a few minutes to comment on my experience with Larry Burns, whom I feel did a tremendous job in selling my property at 77 Montauk Ave. in Westerly. To be specific, there were 4 ways in which Larry was outstanding: 1. Responsiveness: In this new age of text messaging (which is waaaay overused in my opinion) Larry answered hiss phone a good portion of the time, and when I left voicemails, he returned my calls within an hour. To me, answering the phone is HUGE and it’s surprising how few other realtors answer the phone when it rings anymore. 2. Professionalism; Larry didn’t always tell me what I wanted to hear, but he told me what I needed to know with regard to the current market conditions and how they affected my property’s value. I’m aware of how unrealistic expectations can be costly in the long run and his discipline in this area I’m sure helped me to get a strong price for the home in the least amount of time. 3. Commitment to Service: Larry went the extra mile with his research of comparable properties by visiting them in person to ensure that no stones were left unturned and that nothing was left to the imagination in terms of features and condition. He also helped out in several other ways and earned my trust as we navigated our way through the process. 4. Consideration: As a youngster, a lot of my own sweat and blood went into the construction and maintenance of this house. I spent every summer there from the time I was 8 years old until my career took me to Florida when I was 28. That house was in the family for 46 years and I felt as though it was (and still is0 a part of me. The summers spent at Misquamicut are without a doubt, the most treasured memories of my life. The fact that my parents we a big part of this and they recently passed on added to the emotional element. Although selling the house was the most practical decision for me given all of the factors, it was nevertheless an emotional one made very reluctantly. Larry struck the right balance between demonstrating his sensitivity to my situation while also being realistic with regard to the matters at hand. He conducted himself not only as a professional, but also as a friend. Overall, the responsiveness, local market expertise, professionalism, commitment to service and sensitivity to my situation that Larry demonstrated throughout the process make him a first-rate real estate professional and I heartily recommend him to anyone seeking to buy or sell a home.

Paul Lemanski; Misquamicut, RI

Choosing Larry as the realtor to sell my house was the best decision I ever made. He sold the house after not even a week on the market, got the best price and he was very responsive with any question I had. I would absolutely recommend him to anyone!

Alexandra Sacco; Misquamicut, RI

Larry Burns is an excellent and unique real estate agent who has an in depth, analytic knowledge of market trends and property values. He provided excellent guidance in positioning our home that resulted in a successful sale. He exceeded our expectations in every aspect of the process and we highly recommend working with Larry to anyone buying or selling a home. He is the quintessential professional!

Charles Glew; Charlestown, RI

We wholeheartedly recommend Larry Burns to anyone who is in need of a realtor! We were lucky enough to find Larry about two years ago. We shared our dream of buying our future retirement home in coastal Rhode Island. Larry has great insight on areas we included in our search. With our budget and our dreams in mind, Larry sent us information on properties that met our criteria and was willing to show them with our timeframe in mind. Afterwards, he was always available to discuss its pros and cons, and followed through promptly with any information we needed. We both feel that Larry truly listened to our feedback. During our search, we feel that Larry was a true professional, and always had his eye out for property that fit our search. When we finally signed the papers on our second home, Larry’s expertise became invaluable as he guided us through this process. His recommendations for everything from the attorney, financial brokers, to the home inspector could not have been more perfect. Being from out of state, we did rely on Larry’s suggestions, and they were all spot on! Larry went out of his way to make this go smoothly. Knowing that we are from out of state, Larry graciously met various inspectors at the house so they could gain access. If you are looking for someone who will work with you, and will become more than a realtor, but a friend, we recommend you call Larry Burns.

Mark & Julie Basler; Haversham, RI

Best Real Estate Professional you would want to represent you as a seller. A real estate professional in all aspects of local knowledge, expertise, responsiveness and negotiation skills. He goes the extra mile in preparing and marketing your home to maximize the sale. Extremely helpful throughout the entire selling process.

Randy Rifelli; Westerly, RI

My husband and I had been looking for a beach cottage for some time. We had contacted other real estate agents but when we got a referral for Larry, it really changed everything for us! We gave him our criteria, and what we could afford, and he would contact us immediately by phone text or email about properties that were about to go on the market or had just gone on the market. He never wasted our time showing us things just because they were available. He got to know us and what we really wanted. Because of Larry's extensive knowledge of the types of homes on the Westerly market, he knew more about these properties than any of the other realtors who unfortunately just put us on their mailing list and never followed up. We got personal service from Larry. He gave us his honest evaluation of the homes we looked at. He negotiated and wrote the contract to ensure we would get the deal even in a multi-offer scenario. Once our offer was accepted, he gave us all the information from closing attorneys, inspectors, plumbers, maintenance, electric companies, insurance companies all emailed to us. That was invaluable. Even our attorney said she loves working with him because everything is taken care of down to the last detail. We are so happy to refer Larry Burns to anyone who wants to this level of service from their realtor. We will only use Larry for any of our real estate needs. You will not go wrong by having him as your real estate professional.

Doug & Christine Dyer; Misquamicut, RI

Larry Burns is tremendous. Our entire experience with Larry, from search to close and beyond, was first class. His integrity, market knowledge, professionalism and attention to detail significantly exceeded our expectations. Above and beyond all of that, Larry is an absolute pleasure to be around. We would give Larry the most enthusiastic recommendation possible.

Stephen & Lauren Dwyer; Westerly, RI

While interviewing Larry, he hit on all the key highlights that we thought made our home and location a great buy. In less than 5 days we had a signed P&S agreement. Larry's calm, thoughtful and professional demeanor made us very comfortable working with him. He guided us through the whole process and we found him to be quite charming and witty. We are very happy we chose Larry to sell our home and gladly recommend him to anyone looking to sell (or buy) a home.

Debra & Barry Harvey; Westerly, RI

Larry recently represented me in the sale of our long-time family home at the beach. He spent time with us to understand our goals for the sale and helped us develop a plan to achieve them. At every step in the process, Larry was there to provide guidance and to offer his experienced perspective. He was very kind, professional, responsive, organized and positive. Larry's knowledge of the local market, coupled with his comprehensive marketing plan, enabled us to quickly publish a compelling listing and attract an ideal buyer. Thank you, Larry, for making this such a positive experience for me and my family.

Linda Engler; Misquamicut, RI

Larry is a tremendous agent supporting our search as if it was his own! He took the time to listen to what we were looking for and was relentless in his pursuit to find us the right house. He strikes the right balance in his communications with clients, follow-ups, negotiations. He knows most if not all of the agents in the area well and gave us keen insight into the motivations of sellers helping us with our bidding. I would recommend Larry to anyone looking to purchase or sell a home - he will definitely be my first and only call when I'm back in the market again!

Kevin & JoAnn Thornton; Westerly, RI

I have nothing but praise for Larry Burns of Lila Delman Real Estate in Westerly, RI. Larry was extremely involved with the sale of 49 Montauk, Misquamicut, RI, closing date April 23, 2016. I was designated as point person with my 2 siblings and the experience was entirely positive. Larry has extensive knowledge of the area, he took the time to get to know myself, my siblings and to understand our history with the property we put on the market with him. It had been in our family for 30 years and we had lots of special memories. Larry also took the time to introduce himself to our year-round neighbors. Larry was very conscientious about presenting a realistic approach and presented our property in the best possible setting. Larry communicated consistently and remained very involved with all aspects of the sale and marketing, to inspection, to closing. Larry was available at any time through phone calls, emails and texting even while he was on vacation! He was extremely amicable about meeting with myself and my siblings, he offered several times to come to Connecticut! I honestly felt in extremely trusted and qualified hands with Larry. My sibling and I cannot thank Larry Burns enough! He is truly fantastic, loyal, pleasant to work with, goes the extra mile! As a real estate paralegal in Connecticut, I am more than impressed! I am grateful. In the future, should I have the opportunity to purchase property in the area, I would request to work with Larry. Thank you Larry!

Cheryl Kilby; Misquamicut, RI

My husband and I recently worked with Larry as a buyer’s agent. He was able to get us a good deal in what is a very hot seller’s market. That is an extremely difficult feat. Larry’s negotiating skills and expertise are unparalleled. Further he went above and beyond to let us know comps and ideas for the house as is and what it could be. He is also extremely good at following up on all details to make sure the transaction goes smoothly for clients.

Helton & Jessica Dornelas; Charlestown, RI

We have been fortunate to have had the opportunity to work with Larry Burns of your office. Having recently had a property closing gave me the opportunity to review my paperwork with Larry over this period. It is amazing the time, effort and enthusiasm he put into this venture. He is a God send and gift to all those who he interacts with. He certainly sets a standard for Associates to attain. I have given his name and your agency to family and friends for future real estate needs and will continue to do so. He is truly a professional who will do what it takes to make a client feel comfortable. We attest to his professionalism and dedication to providing first-class service to his clients.

Ted & Ellen Warzecha; Weekapaug, RI

BEST Real Estate experience ever!!! I would highly recommend Larry. He is professional, trustworthy and reliable. Pays great attention to detail and communicates every step of the way. Larry has a vast knowledge of the Real Estate market and prepares/ markets property like no other.

Meg Fitzpatrick; Westerly, RI

We met Larry by chance via Zillow when we contacted him to request a showing at a home he was selling as the listing agent. We had no representation at the time and were in the market to purchase a second home in Westerly, RI. It was his immediate response to our email, and telephone call at a late hour, followed by honest and thorough answers to our questions, that made us realize very quickly that Larry was the right choice for us. He was caring, candid, professional, attentive, and committed to our needs from day one through the closing of our home, which was five months in the making, and even thereafter! Larry has become a family friend and someone we have grown to respect and admire. I would HIGHLY recommend Larry to anyone looking to purchase or sell a home. He is outstanding. "Best In Class".

Marc & Marisa Paruta; Shelter Harbor, RI

Previous to working with Larry, we were working with another local realtor that horribly botched our sale and ultimately cost us thousands of dollars. We feel so lucky to have found Larry - he worked diligently with us to find another home. He helped us to negotiate a great price and brought us to a quick closing that was flawless. The entire experience with Larry was such a positive and happy one and so very different from our experience with the previous Remax agent we had the misfortune to meet. We appreciated his attention to detail, honesty and his knowledge and deep understanding about the area. Larry made buying a house not only stress free but fun. We wholeheartedly recommend Larry!!

Dan & Carole O'Malley; Westerly, RI

Larry was a true professional and gentleman and I absolutely enjoyed working with him to purchase my beach cottage in RI. I had been looking for a while and when I was interested in several options, a friend of the family referred me to Larry, and that was the best thing that happened. Larry understood what I was looking for and was always pleasant and responsive in our interactions and he took the time to communicate effectively with me and helped negotiate and close the deal. I look forward to working with him in the future as I know this will not be my last purchase there. Larry - thank you again for all your help and hard work to get me into the cottage and for your cottage warming gift - I love it. If anyone is looking for an excellent realtor that understands the workings of the area and the landscape, I would whole heartedly advise they give Larry a call and speak to him - they will not be disappointed! "

Dr. Nicholas Verdura; Misquamicut, RI

We are absolutely thrilled with the exceptional service provided by Larry during our recent home purchase! From the moment we started our search, he was incredibly attentive to our needs, preferences, and budget. His knowledge of the local market was evident as he guided us through various neighborhoods and properties, ensuring we found the perfect fit for our family. Throughout the entire process, he demonstrated professionalism, integrity, and a genuine commitment to helping us find our dream home. He was always available to answer our questions, provide valuable insights, and offer expert advice, making the entire experience stress-free and enjoyable. Thanks to his dedication and expertise, we are now proud homeowners of a property that exceeds all our expectations. We wholeheartedly recommend him to anyone in search of a trusted partner in their home buying journey.

Tom & Kelly Chefalas; Westerly, RI

It was an absolute pleasure working with Larry. He exceeded expectations in every regard. We were purchasing a home remotely, so Larry was even more critical to the process. We had complete confidence in him. Larry is extremely thoughtful and patient - he thinks things through before making a recommendation or decision. He is knowledgeable of the area, the home values, and the process from beginning to end. We look forward to working with Larry again in the future. Thank you, Larry!

Dean & Ana Gardiner; Misquamicut, RI

Larry Burns is an exceptional real estate professional. I have worked with many throughout the years and he not only knows the market in South County he understands the important intricacies of a successful negotiation. He is very responsive, not pushy, and extremely trustworthy and reliable. I would not hesitate to use Larry again. One happy family!

Tom & Chelsey Angelone; Misquamicut, RI

Larry assisted us with our recent beach house purchase and the bottom line is that Larry knows Westerly (especially the beach areas). We had been casually looking for a 2nd home for more than a year and Larry was outstanding in helping us evaluate multiple properties, candidly describing the pros and cons of each and when we found the home that was right for us, Larry compiled an extensive group of comps and a well thought out offer strategy that enabled us to submit a strong offer, without overreaching. We never felt pressured to submit an offer on anything we didn’t feel comfortable with and it was clear that Larry operates with the utmost integrity. We won’t hesitate to work with Larry again and we would enthusiastically recommend him to anybody looking to buy or sell real estate in the area.

Mike Tassone & Lauren Digange; Misquamicut, RI

Larry Burns is an extremely skilled and professional real estate agent. He was keenly interested in our needs, budget and dreams and found us the perfect home! The process, which is typically stressful, had a flawless execution as Larry provided us all the help and assistance we needed along the way. We are new to the area and he also recommended excellent resources to help execute the myriad of details needed to set up our lives in a new locale. He has an excellent reputation in the community and with his help, we not only found the ideal property but closed in a matter of weeks. We highly recommend Larry and look forward to realizing a dream of a lifetime...He is not only responsive, but brings an array of skills such as his excellent negotiation skills, knowledge of the area and of course, his patience in responding and answering all our questions. We highly recommend Larry Burns.

Ted & Regina Fidgar; Westerly, RI

Throughout the process of selling our townhouse in Westerly, Larry displayed the utmost professionalism and respect. From the outset, Larry believed in the value of our home and marketed it with the same appreciation of its character. his understanding of the local and broader regional real estate market and current trends showed through the success of our sale. Larry's clear communication skills and responsiveness made the process move along smoothly and his honesty throughout the negotiating process was refreshing. We hope to work with Larry again on our move back!

Kait & Heath Horn; Westerly, RI

Larry is a fantastic, honest real estate agent who went out of his way to make sure I was getting the sort of property I was most interested in. Can't say enough good things about my experience with him.

Stefan Ambrosch; Westerly, RI

We worked with Larry for almost 2 years to find the home we purchased. It was a very long process, but he remained committed to finding us exactly we wanted and handled our transaction meticulously and thoughtfully. He was always on top of the market and made sure we were kept informed every step of the way.

Frank & Maria Brea; Misquamicut, RI

From the moment we met Larry we were impressed by his absolute professionalism and confidence. He is extremely knowledgeable of the market and he knows what is needed to list and SELL your home. We were very impressed with how quickly Larry was able to sell our home. Throughout the process he kept us updated on every showing and once we got our buyer, he continued to follow up with us on their progress to closing. He made the experience stress free. It was a pleasure to have him as an agent. We highly recommend him.

Helton & Jessica Dornelas; Westerly, RI

Larry Burns had been a wonderful real estate agent that made selling my Mom’s house a painless process. Though out, Larrys’ professional knowledge and guidance helped us through each phase of the selling process to insure a wonderful outcome. He was a consummate professional who used his knowledge and research to put together an excellent sales package. Lastly; Larry was a kind and caring person who helped us though a difficult time after the loss of my mother. I would highly recommend Larry to anyone that has any type of real estate transaction. He went above and beyond to ensure a good outcome for me and my family.

Risica Family; Misquamicut, RI

I never had a second though that choosing Larry Burns to be my agent, to list and sell my property in Westerly, RI. It was the best decision I could have made. Thanks to Larry with his experience, knowledge, diligence and his friendly personality my property was sold in a very short period of time. I would highly recommend Larry to anyone wanting the services of a professional Real Estate agent.

Anne Lukas; Westerly, RI

We expected the process of selling our family home of 10 plus years to be daunting to say the least. Larry Burns of Lila Delman Real Estate created a seamless experience for us. He is extremely knowledgeable and organized. He kept communication lines open and followed up on all aspects of the sale experience. We would emphatically recommend him for your next real estate transaction.

Matt & Anna Capalbo; Westerly, RI

Working with Larry was wonderful from start to finish! He was incredibly knowledgeable, thoughtful, and responsive as we navigated a purchase from out of state. He went above and beyond; from helping identify properties, walking us through open houses, guiding us through the offer, to completing the closing. We can’t recommend him highly enough!

John & Anne Westlund; Misquamicut, RI

We would 100% recommend him. Larry has an excellent manner for selling any home but is particularity suited to upscale / luxury homes. This clientele expects high quality service and Larry delivers. He also has many contacts to help guide you through the ups and downs of home selling. When done, your home will be presented in its best light. Finally, this may seem minor, but once the house was under contract, he took the time to put together a "handy man / contact list" of people who have rendered great service to the homeowner. Any buyer could appreciate this kind of effort.

Lou & Lynda Nappi; Misquamicut, RI

We have been using Larry for years. He is extremely knowledgeable about Westerly and the surrounding areas. He has a keen understanding of the local real estate market. And he is very good at taking care of his clients. This is our third transaction with Larry. The first two involved purchases of land and a house. This time he helped us sell our land and his guidance was very helpful in getting us a fair price. We highly recommend Larry and expect to be using him again in the future.

Mike & Diane; Misquamicut, RI

From the moment Larry picked up the phone to answer my call I knew he would be terrific. Larry responded almost immediately from my initial phone call to him. We met with him the following day to get the ball rolling. Larry was confident that he could sell our house and made it clear he was working for us. After that, he took care of everything and guided us every step of the way. He gave us guidance with coming up with an asking price that would get the attention of any potential buyers. As soon as it went on the market he knew how to generate interest and get potential buyers in to see the house and property and it worked. We had an immediate response and we’re extremely pleased with the offer presented to us. After we accepted the offer Larry kept us informed with our next steps and continually checked in to tell us what needed to be completed and also handled some of the tasks himself. If I am ever in need of buying or selling I will be calling Larry to handle it and I will recommend him to anyone who is in need of an agent. It was a pleasure doing work with Larry and I wouldn’t hesitate to use him again.

Lisa Toascano; Misquamicut, RI

Larry helped sell my home earlier this year. I was so impressed with his handling of the sale that I turned to him when I decided to purchase another property in the area. Larry knows the market well, is extremely organized and is very responsive. Most importantly, he is trustworthy and I've always felt that Larry has my best interests in mind. I can't recommend his services enough!

Shane Flaherty; Mystic, CT

Larry was our Realtor for our property in Westerly. He was knowledgeable of the area, and all the aspects to guide us along the way of the sale. He went above and beyond his duties. I highly recommend Larry to be your realtor.

K. Yanez; Misquamicut, RI

I rarely give a 5 Star review, but Larry Burns certainly earned it. I found the listing on Zillow and called Larry to get some information on the property of interest. Larry was extremely responsive, patiently answered all of our questions, set up a tour early on a Saturday morning, filled us in on the condo association as well as the local area. He expertly helped us negotiate the purchase in a no-nonsense manner. Since we're from out of state Larry helped us find local professionals who could assist with the inspection and closing process. He's even followed up with us several times after the closing to see how we're doing. The guy is truly a professional and we're glad we found him.

Steve & Kathy Radespiel; Westerly, RI

We started working with Larry in the summer of 2015 and purchased our "beach house" by October of that same year. He has extensive knowledge of the area and is easy to work with. He enjoys the process -- figuring out what his clients are looking for and how that matches with the surrounding offerings. He is willing to research a wide variety of topics to assist and educate his clients. His approach is balanced and not rushed but always responsive and thoughtful in his responses. It was a pleasure to work with Larry and my wife and I would highly recommend him to anyone looking for real estate in SW Rhode Island.

Matt & Rose Walker; Winnapaug Hills, RI

Larry was amazing to work with and locating our new home. He understood what we were looking for and only showed houses that were in our price range. He was extremely helpful throughout the purchase process and spent time educating us on the area as we are from out of state. Even after the sale, he continues to be helpful. It was a great experience working with him and we would use him again for either a purchase or sale. We highly recommend him!

Dan & Anne Marie Lynch; Misquamicut, RI

Larry provided excellent service resulting in an excellent outcome. He is knowledgeable, responsive, follows up, and provided valuable insights and guidance throughout the process. Highly recommended.

Michael Mainelli; Westerly, RI

We were fortunate to cross paths with Larry Burns at an open house. I recognized instantly that he was a cut above the competition and recruited him to work with us. He was invaluable —providing savvy guidance in the regional real estate market. He knows both residential and commercial! He is truly a gem in the industry-hardworking, knowledgeable, honest, and pleasant.

Ilsa Svendsen & Joe Keller; Westerly, RI

Larry Burns is an excellent realtor. His knowledge of the market and quick insight into our needs & style made a potentially stressful process easy and enjoyable. Larry knows the local area and provides professional guidance for the home buying experience with integrity and swift responsiveness. Larry is good natured and negotiates well. And he continues to help us familiarize ourselves with our new community.

Jerry & Karen Healy; Charlestown, RI

We enjoyed working with Larry. Throughout the entire process Larry was very accessible and always addressed our questions on a very timely basis. We narrowed down our search to a very specific market area. Larry found us a property before it hit the market. We were able to visit the property before others which gave us a competitive advantage. We felt like Larry had his finger on the pulse of what was happening in the local market – for which we are grateful. We would have missed this house if not for Larry. If we were to buy or sell again in Westerly, Larry would be our first call. Highly recommend!

Andy & Cathy Carrano; Misquamicut, RI

Larry did not directly represent me, but he was the selling agent for the house I ended up purchasing. There is no one that knows the Misquamicut area more than Larry. He was so knowledgeable he made me want to keep investing in the area. Larry was accessible when my agent couldn't make it a couple of showings and made me feel at ease with the whole process. If I ever buy again in the area, I will only use Larry Burns to represent me.

Catherine Thurston; Misquamicut, RI

My husband and I had a great experience working with Larry when we purchased a home in Westerly this spring. Larry was the seller's broker and he was able to give us a full history of the house as well as the neighborhood. Given that this property was set to serve as a second home, we really appreciated the insight into the state of the property, even getting into the type of trees and age of the shingles on the house. Larry was extremely responsive during negotiations and whenever we had questions about the house. He also made himself available on the day of closing to walk through the property with us prior to signing the final paperwork. This extra touch was great given that we were first time home buyers. We would highly recommend him to anyone looking for a new or second home. Thanks, Larry!

Christyna & Ross Vincent; Westerly, RI

"Larry was a pleasure to work with on the sale of my home. As a first-time seller, I had plenty of questions and Larry was extremely knowledgeable and responsive. I highly recommend Larry for your real estate needs."

Shane Flaherty; Westerly, RI

Larry was a pleasure to work with. He kept us informed through the entire process and was very responsive and knowledgeable. I would highly recommend Larry.

Ron & Patti Messina; Misquamicut, RI

Extremely professional agent. Very good knowledge of the local market. Listens to his clients and is always responsive. He is there for his clients every step of the way.

Frank & Natalia; Misquamicut, RI

Larry Burns went above and beyond to help sell our home. We would highly recommend him to anyone who is planning to sell their home. He went so far as digging up the septic system for the inspection since we were unable to do so. He also helped to stage the house to be more presentable in pictures and for showings.

John & Marisa Rogers; Westerly, RI

Larry knew the all the answers to our questions before we even asked them, even to the questions we didn't know we should be asking. If there was a question without an answer, Larry knew the right person to talk to, regardless of whether it pertained to lending, legal, inspections, or help with utilities, caretakers, and home improvement specialists. His professionalism and experience made our house buying experience a breeze. He was very easy to communicate with before, during, and after the sale, so you didn't feeling alone in the process. I highly recommend him if you need an agent.

Todd & Rachel Akerley; Westerly, RI

We worked with Larry during 2016 to find the perfect home for us in Westerly. Larry took us around the area telling us about the various neighborhoods, the history, and the people. He was very knowledgeable about the local real estate market. He was also very in tune with what we wanted and did not waste our time showing us stuff that wouldn't appeal to us. He was always very responsive to our emails and calls, and was thoughtful and professional throughout the process. We look forward to being one of Larry's new "neighbors".

Larry is a professional! Larry walked us through the whole process of locating and buying a house. We thought that buying a home was going to be stressful, but he made it so easy with his knowledge and expertise. Larry was very easy to communicate with. He was always available during the week as well as weekends. He was very trustworthy and we are extremely happy with his negotiating an agreement for a great purchase.

Larry did an outstanding job helping us sell our townhome. He exhibited the highest standards of professionalism through the process of listing the property right up through the closing of the sale. He delivers personal service with a capital P. I would highly recommend Larry Burns to anyone looking to purchase or sell a property.

Larry was very fair and honest. His knowledge of comps in the area was thorough. Once we went to contract Larry was incredibly helpful (and organized) with an extensive rolodex of local trades people. We would work with Larry again.

Larry listed and sold our family beach home. The home was under contract within a couple of months. Larry was very thorough with the housing process. He understands what people are looking for and what is required to complete the sale. I highly recommend his talents and expertise.

Working with Larry was an enjoyable experience. He was professional, respectful of our needs, and most importantly knowledgeable about the coastal market in Southern Rhode Island. We would certainly recommend him to anyone who is interested in selling or purchasing a home. With his real estate background and guidance, we were able to get over asking price.

We would like to share our experience we had with realtor Larry Burns who is employed by Lila Delman / Compass. Larry was highly recommended for the sale of our home in Misquamicut Beach by our neighbor, who herself is an agent in Connecticut. She expressed her satisfaction with Larry by explaining he has extended experience on home sales in our area. When we met Larry, it was obvious his knowledge in local home sales was exceptional. He took his time to explain the entire process, did a thorough market comparison and determined what we could expect for a sale price. He valued the condition of our completely renovated property and made sure it was articulated in the description of the posting. The pictures and narrative were amazing and absolutely contributed to the quick sale of our property. Larry did not let anyone in our home without his presence which was extremely comforting to us. Larry provided a very pleasant experience and we hope he continues to make others as comfortable as we were during a stressful time of selling personal property.

Gary & Michelle Bryant; Misquamicut, RI

Larry was very knowledgeable and a pleasure to work with. He helped us through a tough decision to leave our home of 20 years. We would highly recommend Larry.
