About Linette

As the founder of The Semino Team, Linette Semino is a highly respected leader in New York City’s luxury real estate market. With over two decades of experience and more than $400 million in sales, Linette brings exceptional expertise in both condominiums and cooperatives. She specializes in Manhattan’s premier neighborhoods, including Tribeca, the West Village, Greenwich Village, Flatiron, Chelsea, Gramercy, the East Village, Midtown, and the Upper East and West Sides. Known for her deep Manhattan's real estate knowledge and personalized approach, Linette is dedicated to helping every client successfully achieve their real estate goals.
Whether you’re buying your dream home or selling for maximum value, Linette’s expertise as a Certified Negotiation Expert (CNE) means you’ll have a skilled advocate working to secure the best results. Known for her professionalism, integrity, and exceptional client care, she makes the buying or selling process seamless from start to finish. Linette’s commitment to excellence, discretion, and trust has earned her a loyal clientele and countless referrals. She goes above and beyond to provide a white-glove experience—keeping clients informed, confident, and supported every step of the way.
Before launching her real estate career, Linette honed her service philosophy in luxury hospitality with prestigious brands like The Ritz-Carlton and Mandarin Oriental. Linette began her real estate career on-site at several high-profile new development condominiums in Manhattan. Linette began her real estate career on the on-site sales teams of Manhattan’s most prestigious new developments, including The Orion, The Avery, The Rushmore, and 212 East 47th Street. Working with top developers and a leading sales and marketing firm, she gained expert insight into how new developments are priced, marketed, and sold. This experience honed her ability to advise sellers on effective positioning and marketing strategies while guiding buyers through every detail of purchasing new construction — from floor plans and pricing structures to developer incentives and closing costs. Linette’s deep understanding of both sides of the transaction allows her to deliver exceptional results for her clients across all segments of the Manhattan market.
Her professionalism and expertise have also earned her media recognition, including appearances on PIX11 News, Good Day New York, HGTV’s Selling New York, Lifetime’s Million Dollar Shopper, and MTV’s The City. She’s been featured in publications such as The New York Times, New York Post, and The Real Deal.
Born in the Dominican Republic and raised in The Bronx, Linette is a proud New Yorker who understands the city’s diverse communities inside and out. She has lived in Greenwich Village for over a decade and now calls Park Avenue home. Outside of real estate, Linette is passionate about fitness, wellness, and giving back. She serves on the gala planning committees for the 14+ Foundation and Dream Project, organizations supporting education in Zambia and the Dominican Republic. Linette is also fluent in Spanish and deeply connected to her community.
