Lorraine's real estate clients are her top priority always. Whether it is to achieve an immediate goal, pursue a dream or simply find a sanctuary, she is totally committed to their purpose.

Lorraine brings a unique skill set to her clients, leveraging her M.B.A. degree with years of experience in banking, advertising sales and as a Silicon Valley CFO and manager. Here in New York City real estate, she works equally with local and overseas buyers searching for the right neighborhood and building, along with advising established clients seeking to maximize the sale of their home.

With almost two decades of experience in Manhattan real estate, Lorraine offers an immense range of market knowledge, transactional expertise and creative strategies. She has successfully managed closings in virtually all neighborhoods, moving seamlessly between eight-figure penthouses, venerable co-ops along the park, new construction condos and pre-war lofts.

Lorraine has a well-regarded reputation for exemplary service, work quality and professional standards, combined with discretion and client confidentiality. She adds tremendous value to each client relationship and offers a deliberate strategy of asking for the right things at the right times.

Lorraine's real estate record sums it up. She has consistently performed in the top 5% of her brokerage firm's business in recent years and has been recognized by Real Trends as one of America's Best Real Estate Professionals.

When not with her clients, Lorraine likes to explore the city's ever-changing sights, spend time in Central Park with her black miniature Poodle and host dinner parties for friends and family.

"I also prioritize my resources in contributing to causes which are very important to me. One such organization is Bide-a-wee (Scottish for "stay a while"), which provides important pet rescue and welfare services locally. I contribute with every real estate sale I make." www.bideawee.org

NOTE TO BUYER CLIENTS: At least 50% of my business is working with buyers. It requires the use of a different skill set. For me, the key is to ensure my buyers get "good value" for their money, not just a "good price". That's where in-depth knowledge, expertise and the most current data complement buyers' use of real estate websites.
