Ultimately, the work of bringing together buyers and sellers is all about helping people navigate a major life change, in times both joyful and challenging. I offer my clients the highest standards and this extends to the network of professionals I refer to, from attorneys, title and insurance specialists to lenders and movers. My goal as your realtor is to ensure a wonderful transaction from start to finish.
My boutique approach encompasses not just selling a home but highlighting the quality of life in the communities I serve. As a lifelong New York City gal, I understand what it’s like to transition from the city to the ‘burbs. It’s my mission to help families settle into their new community feeling connected to everything – plumbers, painters, neighbors, babysitters, nursery schools, restaurants and even new friends.
When I list a home I bring my own team of strategic partners to stage and photograph the property with polish and professionalism, and this holds true across all price points. Beyond just listing the home on MLS, I take full advantage of social- and digital-marketing opportunities to attract the most qualified buyers. I stay on top of the latest research and analytics for my market and beyond.
By focusing on my hometown of Briarcliff Manor and the surrounding towns of Pleasantville, Chappaqua and Ossining, I’m able to offer unparalleled local insight. In addition, my carefully culled network allows me to refer clients interested in exploring other areas in the county, the state and across the country to like-minded realtors.

"What more is there to say than what you’ve read in all of Hillary’s other reviews? We could not have found a better partner for our home search. Hillary was fantastic from the start. She educated us about the towns and different neighborhoods. When we found our house, she guided us through the purchase process, never pushing and always giving great advice. Through the contract to closing, she was always available to answer questions and even after closing, she gave us recommendations for home professionals as well as directed us to the best sushi and pizza in town. Buying a home is stressful, especially during these crazy times. Hillary’s knowledge, experience, and warm personality helped keep us sane. I would recommend her to everyone without hesitation."

"I would highly recommend Hillary for all of your real estate needs! She helped us close on our house in Briarcliff Manor and she was EXCELLENT to work with. Great person, excellent communicator, super responsive, very knowledgeable, and she tells it like it is! She is the exact type of person I would want to handle my real estate deal. We were new to the area, and to help us get settled into the community, she gave us great recommendations regarding local businesses and professionals and connected us with folks in the neighborhood - which was just an added bonus! I would definitely work with Hillary again, and would recommend my friends and family to her!" - Kristen

"illary is the go-to person for real estate needs! From Day 1 to closing, she was with us by providing correct guidance, provide suggestions on our sale process. She is very responsiveness and her team is excellent! "Listen to Hillary" :-) It is true and she will make things happen. We are very happy with her approach, knowledge, process, negotiation skills and many more to day."

"When we started looking for a home, we grew increasing disheartened by the process and had no idea why anyone would even need a buying agent. Then we met Hillary at an open house and the light went off: we were with the wrong agent! I called her that night and we began our new search the next week. As first-time buyers we had no idea what questions to ask, what to look out for, how and when to bid competitively, and most importantly, how to get a house that had the ability check all of our boxes. Hillary was able to provide the knowledge, objective perspective and guidance we needed to confidently make informed decisions throughout the entire process, and was a fierce advocate for us from day one to closing. We would recommend Hillary a million times over to any buyer or seller looking for an extremely professional, warm, whip-smart agent (with a strong GIF-text game to boot!)"
★★★★★
"Hi - We recently worked with Hillary on the purchase of our first home. She is knowledge, responsive and provided sound advice throughout the process. Hillary has a calm demeanor which is incredibly helpful during a sometimes stressful, emotional process. Hillary never pressured us to make a decision and provided good advice when asked throughout the process from putting in our offer to our final walk through. It was a pleasure to work with her."
A City Girl’s Guide to Loving Suburbia
So here you are… in a house, in the suburbs. You’re still not quite sure how it happened, but somehow, whether it was your job, your partner, or your kids, you were torn from the grip you had on your doorman’s ankles, and now you’re living with more bedrooms than people, more toilets than tushes, and a yard that mocks you and your dead house plants. You know this house was the stuff of someone’s dreams, it just wasn’t necessarily yours. Perhaps it’s the #metoo movement or some other feminist twist, but for me and many of my female clients and friends, the dream of a white picket fence was not our dream. We didn’t want to give up the bustle and vibe of the city, even when sharing a studio with our partner or a one-bedroom with our two kids. In this column, I’ll share this city-girl’s journey toward loving suburbia. It’s not a where-to, more of a how-to… a mind and habit-bend that I hope can help others love it, too!
