…they thought they’d never end” – and they’re back for some areas of Greenwich – but not for back country – therein lies opportunity.
Take 170 Old Mill Road – just listed yesterday. It was purchased by the current owner in 2006 for $8,850,000 on an asking price of $,9,400,000. The buyer probably thought that he got a great deal at the time.
Today it’s back for $6,900,000 – hurts.
170 OLD MILL ROAD – GREENWICH
It’s been rented (although not through a realtor – through a friend, friend of friend, or party whisper) – so that part of the property history is not visible on the MLS. I met the renter at a public open house recently – my guess is that one of the properties in pending status within the same brokerage got his business…going directly to the listing broker…just a hunch based on his MO 🙂
The art of the deal transcends all businesses, and more so in real estate than in many other professions. For the client, it's often an emotional purchase or sale, rather than a simple commodity or luxury item. I make it my mission to have each side come to terms with a transaction that works for everyone. It's not always easy, but good things in life usually take effort - something from which I've never shied.
Licensed since 2009 as a real estate sales agent in CT & NY, I often work with clients on the border of both areas.
With sales and distribution experience for luxury designer products, and watching/reacting to the markets, my acumen for sales was established. Achieving success and contributing to the growth of many global apparel designer brands, such as Giorgio Armani and Paul Smith for over 20 years, it was time for a change. I wanted to explore another passion that would keep me in one location rather than traveling the globe.
Now I have the best of both worlds, a successful business as a fulfilling personal life. My husband and I have lived in back country Greenwich since 2003, where we enjoy easy access to great biking, hiking and golf. We love to ski and that's usually where our travel takes us.
Life is good in Greenwich!
