Questions
Do you sell homes privately, off the market?
Yes. Where it suits the seller, I introduce a home to a select group of qualified buyers before any public listing. We decide together how visible the sale should be.
How do you value an estate?
I review comparable estates, the land, the architecture and condition, then give you a written opinion of value and the reasoning behind it.
What is your approach to confidentiality?
Showings are by appointment, buyers are introduced with their advisors, and photography can be arranged without revealing the address.
Can you help me buy as well as sell?
Yes. I represent buyers on both sides of the table and can coordinate a sale and a purchase so the timing works.
Which areas do you cover?
The North Shore of Long Island, from Great Neck to Cold Spring Harbor, plus selected homes elsewhere in the region. Ask if your town is not listed.
How should I prepare for a first meeting?
Nothing formal is needed. A rough sense of timing and a few questions are plenty. I will bring a short valuation outline.
