Born and raised in Shelburne, Vermont and now living in Fairfax where I purchased my first home in September of 2020. If I am not at Heritage, you can find me tinkering at my house, camping or driving around Vermont to find the best rivers for fishing; I love to experience the Vermont outdoors. I'd be more than happy to help you find the right vehicle for every adventure, in a laid back and hassle-free environment. Come experience the Heritage difference.

I worked with Frankie Candido at Heritage Toyota in South Burlington VT and he helped me to find a suitable vehicle for my needs! He worked with me to figure out what the best decision was by educating me on what the used and new vehicle options were on the lot. After considering used and new options, and after taking his knowledge and expertise into account, I decided that leasing a new vehicle would be the best option for me. Frankie was professional, honest, and patient throughout the process, and I could tell he was well-versed in his field. I would highly recommended working with Frankie as well as working with Heritage Toyota in South Burlington in General! More
