Maria Delgado, Brickline Realty Group
Your agent
Meet Maria Delgado
I grew up a few blocks from where I now work, and I still run into clients at the corner store. That is the point. When you hire me, you get a neighbor who has walked the streets, read the contracts and sat in the closing rooms.
At Brickline Realty Group, every client gets my phone number, honest numbers and a plan that fits their timeline. Bring me the questions you are afraid to ask.

Questions
Good questions, plain answers
Still wondering about something? Call and ask Maria directly.
How does the free home valuation work?
Send the address and a few details. I review nearby sales and the current competition, then walk you through a written estimate by phone or in person. It is free and carries no obligation.
Do you work with first-time buyers?
Yes. Many clients are buying their first home. I explain each step, from pre-approval to closing, and connect you with lenders and attorneys you can compare.
What is the difference between a co-op and a condo?
A co-op buyer owns shares in a corporation and usually goes through a board review. A condo buyer owns the unit itself. We talk through the costs and the paperwork for each.
Can I sell before I buy?
Often, yes. We plan the timing so you are not left without a home, using contingencies, short-term options or a coordinated closing.
How do you set a listing price?
By looking at recent sales on and near your block, the condition of the home and what buyers are choosing right now. You see the full reasoning.
What areas do you cover?
Brooklyn and Queens, with the most experience in the neighborhoods listed above. Ask about nearby areas too.
