Dawn is a long-time resident of Fairfield and real estate has been her passion for many years! After years of helping friends find and sell homes, and being a sounding board for those looking for innovative renovations, many suggested she turn her dedicated hobby into a career. Having lived through a transformational renovation on her own home, and understanding the Fairfield County market, she takes pride in being a resource for her clients. In addition to her personal expertise, Dawn is part of a team that uses the marketing power of digital and social media to help create the most exposure for their clients.
Dawn understands that buying a home is a big decision and her former teaching career has given her the compassion, listening and communication skills that provide her clients with the best possible experience through the home buying process. She has always made buying or selling a home a very meaningful process and always has her client’s best interests at heart.
Dawn and her husband are raising four very active boys who keep them busy with sports and community activities. Her family enjoys all the amenities that Fairfield County has to offer, from hiking and kayaking to relaxing with friends on one of the town’s many beaches. And of course, she loves taking in a show at FTC or having dinner at one of the many amazing restaurants in Fairfield or Westport.
Dawn is a firm believer in giving back. She has spent years volunteering in the Fairfield Schools. She is a former PTA President and board member at Osborn Hill Elementary School. And is currently a PTA member at both Fairfield Woods Middle School and Fairfield Ludlowe High School. She also volunteers her time to the volunteer based program, SASO (Scholars and Athletes Serving Others), where she serves on the board and is a liaison with Operation Hope.

Dawn was very knowledgeable about today's market. She was always available when we had questions. She has patience and has a wonderful personality. Would highly recommend her to friends.
Dawn Gitman is an exceptional agent! Her tenacity and hard work were instrumental in finding me the perfect home, I couldn't have done it without her! I couldn't have navigated this crazy market without her and her knowledge and expertise.
Our listing agent Dawn Gitman marketed, listed, and sold our rental property in record time. Her knowledge on the process start to finish was unmatchable. Dawn is our friend, but the reason we chose her is because she is EXCELLENT at her profession!
Dawn was very easy to work with. She was extremely knowledgeable about the current market. I really appreciated how organized she was with presenting offers to me with an Excel spreadsheet. That was so helpful.
We just sold our house in Fairfield with Dawn Gitman. We have sold many houses and used many Realtors and Dawn was by far the best! She was responsive, accommodating to our needs, she listened and gave thoughtful and useful feedback. Sometimes it wasn’t what we wanted to hear but it was always in the interest in selling our home. She is a hard worker and presents all opportunities professionally. We highly recommend her. We sold our house in a few weeks and the entire transaction was painless with Dawn!
Sarah Pritchard and Dawn Gitman are amazing and we can’t recommend them enough! They are smart, resourceful and they really know Fairfield! We moved here from the Boston area and they found our house for us. They knew exactly what we were looking for and sent letters to potential sellers in the neighborhood of our choice. They previewed our house and knew we would love it and we did!
Dawn is the BEST! She knew exactly what we wanted and never showed us anything that didn’t fit our needs. She is on top of the market and that helped us make an offer on our dream home before anyone else even saw it.
Could not have asked for more from Dawn Gitman as our agent for the sale of our home and purchase of our next property! Dawn was extremely proactive (sourcing potential buyers and marketing before our house was even officially on the market) and extremely responsive (almost any hour Dawn was reachable and proactively advising from beginning to end of the process). She was conscientious, knowledgeable, innovative, and secured a sale of our home for a great price. She also really met our needs as we conducted an ever-changing house purchase search. Dawn’s a star! I would highly recommend her to other home buyers/purchasers!
Dawn is the best. Extremely knowledgeable in the process of buying and selling a home; knows the area so well; and a great negotiator. Dawn got us into our dream home. Simply the best!
Dawn Gitman is awesome at her job. She makes you feel comfortable as if working with a trusted friend.
