About Ann
Ann’s greatest thrill is racing her Porsche! Akin to real estate, racing requires extreme focus, dedication, strategic planning, negotiation expertise, and fortitude. This is why Ann is so accomplished in real estate. Like her, she wants to get you to the finish line successfully!

Armed with an MBA from The Wharton School and fortified with certificates as a Negotiation Expert and a Buyers Representative, Ann Deane is a natural agent. She keeps focus 24/7 which leads to sincere client and customer loyalty. Ann demonstrates the intelligence, knowledge, care and flexibility required to get a deal done. Whether negotiating, showing the right kinds of property, or qualifying buyers and correctly pricing the listing, Ann shows exceptional skills and judgment. She follows the market and interprets the trends to assess the best prices for the moment. As one client once said, she is a “Rock Star!”.

In negotiations, Ann asks the right questions, understands what’s key in making the deal work and communicates information in a timely and comprehensive manner. Her hard work pays off and her deals stick. In negotiations, she is considered a “ninja” by her customers. When working with buyers, she guides them from the beginning and lays out a detailed game plan to manage the process. She executes comprehensive board packages that are easy for a board to read which leads to a very high rate of board approvals. Ann guides her buyers through the mortgage process and works closely with the mortgage professional to make certain the mortgage is processed in a timely manner. She provides her buyers and sellers with the tools they need to make the sale - whether it’s handymen needed to replace light fixtures, mortgage experts or attorneys, Ann has her pulse on the key players in the industry. Even after a sale is completed, Ann assists with her clients’ and customers’ needs.

A homeowner in a co-op herself, Ann has lived in the Carnegie Hill neighborhood of the Upper East Side for more than 30 years. She knows the ins and outs of the approval process intimately. The mother of three children, who attended three schools in the City, she is also well versed in the school systems and raising children in Manhattan. She is a member of the Directors Guild of America, Producers Guild of America, Porsche Club of America, is a Nationally Certified High Performance Driving Instructor, and is a former member of her own coop's board. Client Testimonials

"Ann is the best! She listens and spends the necessary time to find the perfect property and then makes the purchasing process as simple as possible. When I was ready to sell, she priced my apartment well and sold it quickly. I will definitely work with her again on my next purchase."

- Nora G., Riverside

"Ann is one of the nicest and smartest people I’ve ever encountered in real estate. She knew exactly what needed to be done to sell our no view apartment, priced it appropriately and got us a great deal."

- Jim H., Upper East Side

"I should have listened to Ann sooner. She kept telling me what needed to be done, and instead, I kept lowering the price. It cost me $3,000 to do the work. Ann did it all--chose the fixtures, the granite, made all of the arrangements and I didn’t lift a finger. That’s full service! Once she completed the work, we were in contract within 3 weeks!"

- Ninfa C., Upper West Side

"My daughter and her husband moved out of the apartment I bought for her while she was in college. Ann was very upfront and insightful in telling us that it needed to be staged as most buyers have no vision. We were in contract one month after staging it. And the buyers loved the furniture so much that they bought that as well!"

- Jessi J., Upper East Side

"My fiance and I were moving to NYC from Philadelphia and LA. Ann drove us around a number of neighborhoods and helped us zero in on what was important to us-- a doorman building that permitted 2 large dogs, proximity to Whole Foods, and a park. We found our dream rental apartment after 2 days of looking."

- Annie R., Upper East Side
