Christopher Ritchey

Chris presents his clients with the most relevant options and best opportunities based on their needs and desires, whether it be a summer rental or buying a home for life. He makes the search extremely efficient, and educates the Buyer or Seller through the entire transaction to the closing table and beyond.

As an avid horseman, he is a member of the Compass Equestrian Division, a national network of vetted real estate agents who truly understand the equestrian lifestyle.

"I adore Chris Ritchey! His excitement about real estate and local life is totally infectious – I’ve never known anyone so resourceful and able to effortlessly build community around him. Chris has helped me with two properties - each time helping me understand their value in the here and now and also as an investment – I wouldn’t dare make a major real estate decision without him!" - Michaela Ablon

"I am the coop board President in our building and Chris Ritchey helped my wife and I find the home for our expanding family in East Hampton, Springs. During our search, we weren’t in a rush for a second home but if we found something we liked, we would buy a home. Chris listened to our wish list and we never felt pressured to look at homes and he didn’t show us homes that he knew we would not like. Chris will not waste your time and he is someone you can trust. I asked him many questions in person and over email. He was very responsive and helped us through the home buying process. Which is different than the nyc process. Chris pointed out the pro’s and con’s of each property and he debriefed with us after a long day of open houses. Chris comes with my highest recommendation and when we decide to sell, which won’t be for a while, we will list with him." - Chris Jimenez
