About Quincy Clayton

Clayton & Associates was founded in 2014, led by seasoned real estate professional Quincy Clayton, who has been serving buyers, sellers, and tenants full-time since 2001. With more than two decades in the business, Quincy has built his career on a simple philosophy: people first, transactions second—and the results tend to follow.

Quincy holds the prestigious CRS (Certified Residential Specialist) designation—earned by fewer than 5% of REALTORS® nationwide—along with GRI (Graduate, REALTOR® Institute), e-PRO, At Home With Diversity, ABR (Accredited Buyer Representative), and CPS (Certified Probate Specialist) credentials. He is also a Certified NextHome Trainer, frequently sought after by peers for his innovative marketing strategies and practical, people-centered approach to real estate.

Licensed in both Connecticut and Massachusetts, Quincy provides specialized service throughout Western Massachusetts (including Hampden County) and across much of Connecticut, including New London, Windham, Hartford, and Tolland Counties. Whether navigating a first purchase, a strategic move-up, a probate sale, or a carefully timed transition, his clients benefit from experience, clarity, and steady guidance every step of the way.

Clayton & Associates specializes in residential real estate sales and rentals, representing homeowners, buyers, and tenants with diligence and heart. The team is known for exceeding seller expectations through thoughtful pricing, exceptional marketing, and proactive communication. Buyers and tenants appreciate the guidance—whether they’re brand new to the process or seasoned pros who still value a trusted advisor.

Clients are never treated like transactions. They’re coached, informed, and supported—because real estate decisions are rarely just about property; they’re about timing, family, finances, and future chapters.

Outside of real estate, Quincy is a pianist and organist who primarily plays for his church, a proud graduate of Johnson & Wales University with a specialization in International Baking & Pastry Arts and Food Service Management, and a lifelong lover of comedy—having even performed stand-up in his earlier years (proof that tough negotiations and good timing often go hand in hand).

He is happily married, the proud father of two adult sons and daughters-in-law, one daughter, and a very lucky granddaughter who already knows she has the best seat in the house.

Buying or selling a home is one of life’s biggest moments—and it deserves more than a one-time transaction. It deserves a relationship built on trust, experience, and genuine care.

If you’re looking for a REALTOR® who brings expertise, heart, humor, and unwavering advocacy to the table, Quincy Clayton and Clayton & Associates would be honored to earn the opportunity to be your REALTOR® for life. The conversation can start today—and the plan can be built together.
