Deborah Dunlap

Real Estate Agent

With over six years of experience as a Connecticut realtor, Deborah Dunlap brings a calm, strategic, and knowledgeable approach to every transaction. Having relocated more than a dozen times across the country, she deeply understands the emotions and logistics that come with buying and selling a home. That personal experience, combined with her strong market knowledge and attention to detail, allows her to guide clients with confidence and care through every step of the process.

Deborah’s love of design and interiors naturally enhances her work as an agent. She enjoys helping sellers present their homes beautifully and assisting buyers in seeing the potential in new spaces.

Based in West Hartford, Deborah loves the town for its top-rated schools, vibrant town center, abundant parks and recreational opportunities, and diverse dining and shopping options. She appreciates the strong sense of community the town offers, along with its perfect blend of suburban comfort and urban convenience. Centrally located between Boston and New York, West Hartford provides the ideal backdrop for both work and life: a place that truly feels like home.

Outside of real estate, Deborah enjoys playing tennis, serves on the board of the Hartford Tennis Club, and volunteers with The Bridge Family Center in West Hartford. Married for 35 years with three grown sons, she values time with family, community, and the meaningful connections she builds through her work.

Known for her professionalism, calm demeanor, and commitment to her clients’ goals, Deborah works as part of a trusted, collaborative team, delivering a thoughtful and elevated real estate experience across Connecticut.

Samantha Halladay

Real Estate Agent

Born and raised in Hartford’s South End, Samantha now proudly calls West Hartford home, where she lives with her husband, their two boys, and their two beloved fur babies.

Before pursuing a career in real estate, Samantha spent over a decade as a registered nurse, supporting individuals and families through some of life’s most important transitions. That experience instilled in her a deep appreciation for empathy, trust, and connection—values that continue to guide her work with every client.

In addition to her healthcare background, Samantha holds a Master’s in Management from The University of Hartford, which has sharpened her skills in organization, negotiation, and strategic thinking. This unique blend of care and competence allows her to offer a thoughtful, professional, and personalized real estate experience.

Her passion for real estate grew from her own journey. As the spouse of a veteran, she navigated the VA loan process firsthand and understands the unique challenges of finding the right home for a growing family. That insight fuels her commitment to helping others find a place they can truly call home.

Real Estate Agent

With 14 years of sales experience, Mary Carangelo brings a results-driven approach to real estate that’s grounded in genuine connection and trust.

As a long-time West Hartford resident, she has  built strong community ties through years of volunteer work and event planning for local non-profits, giving her an insider’s perspective on the area’s neighborhoods and culture.
