Amanda Bryan Realtor

Amanda Bryan is a highly regarded real estate professional with almost two decades of successfully advising clients across Fairfield County.  Known for her data-driven perspective and unwavering integrity, she blends the analytical rigor of an MBA from Columbia with the strategic, relationship-focused approach of a trusted advisor thanks to her previous career in Private Wealth Management. Her business is built almost entirely on referrals  - both from former clients and agents outside of her market—clear proof of the confidence clients and professionals alike place in her judgment and results.

A former Division I lacrosse player, Amanda brings discipline, teamwork, and a strategic mindset to real estate. She knows how to communicate clearly, stay calm under pressure, and collaborate toward a shared goal—a skill set her clients consistently cite as invaluable throughout the buying and selling process. She is known for her sharp marketing instincts, thoughtful analysis, and strong negotiation skills, bringing a modern, elevated perspective to every transaction.

As a Sales Manager for both Houlihan Lawrence and Compass from 2016-2020, Amanda supported and guided hundreds of agents through every imaginable real estate scenario, sharpening her ability to anticipate issues before they arise, problem-solve quickly, and navigate even the most complex transactions with clarity. It also gave her an extraordinary professional network—unbeatable relationships with fellow agents across Fairfield County that consistently benefit her clients, especially in competitive, multiple-offer situations.

Amanda is also the co-founder of Team Saxe + Bryan at Compass, a team she leads alongside business partner, Christine Saxe. Together, they have been recognized as one of Connecticut’s top-producing teams by RealTrends every year since 2021—an achievement rooted in consistent results, impeccable client service, and a deeply thoughtful approach to the market.

Having grown up in New Canaan, lived in NYC for 10 years and then back to Connecticut in 2005, Amanda not only has great depth of knowledge about several towns, but also understands the nuances of moving from the city to the suburbs.

Amanda is not just an agent, she is a strategic partner—someone who listens closely, plans intelligently, and advocates with precision, patience and heart.
