I have been a New Yorker for more than twenty years. I have moved apartments enough times to know exactly what it feels like: the hope, the sticker shock, the moment you walk into the right one and just know. That feeling is why I do this job.
As a licensed real estate salesperson with The Corcoran Group, I represent buyers and sellers across Manhattan and Brooklyn. My clients get the version of me my friends get: direct answers, real market data, and someone who will tell you not to buy the wrong apartment even when it would be easier to say yes.
That cat became Tiny Tigers NJ, a registered 501(c)(3) rescue that has since placed hundreds of cats from hoarding cases, abandonment, and neglect into homes across New Jersey. We are entirely volunteer run and foster based. My real estate practice is the rescue's single biggest funder, which means every client I work with is, whether they realize it or not, part of the rescue too.
People ask how the two fit together. Honestly, they are the same job. Someone needs a home. You listen, you match, you negotiate on their behalf, and you do not stop until they are settled. The only difference is that one set of clients pays commission and the other purrs.
Buying, selling, adopting, fostering, or just want to talk about the market or the cats. Every message comes straight to me.
