Sure beats the long, tedious, drawn out process that more often is the case: between the accepted offer and the final walk through, it could be months. But with these two – short and sweet…
The sellers bought this in 1999 for 6,200,000, and did some pretty specific changes to the property – like a complete Japanese bamboo wing for meditation, yoga and tea… they then tried selling the property with a list price of 10,500,000 in 2016. It finally expired with it’s first agent after 649 days at a price of 7,995,000. Re-introduced at the beginning of the Spring 2018 market, it now has a deal.
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!
