About Rachel
Rachel Skumanich navigates buyers and sellers to success with an empathetic approach and infectious
enthusiasm for New York City living. She's the in-the-know resource people count on for all things New
York, including what to do, see and experience. As a real estate professional, Rachel's love of
architecture and passion for people are as exciting as the city itself. She's a focused, steadfast leader
who adds a sense of calm to even the most stressful situations. Relatable and accessible, with a flair for
communication and negotiation, Rachel connects with each client's vision and delivers consistently seamless and successful outcomes.
Before real estate, Rachel was an event planner overseeing large conventions and trade shows, an
experience that formed her impressive attention to detail and ability to manage expectations. As a former journalist and freelance photoshoot producer, she knows the words and imagery that create
impactful listings. Above all, Rachel considers herself a conduit and connector between what people want and their ideal result. She believes in supporting the process of discovery and delight in each
client's unique home search or sale. It's no surprise that Rachel has completed more than 500 successful transactions, including many international relocations and luxury new development lease-ups, in both
Brooklyn and Manhattan.
Originally from Cleveland, Rachel earned a bachelor of science degree in journalism from the E.W.
Scripps School of Ohio University, specializing in English and theater. She has made her home in New York City for more than 14 years and currently resides in Prospect Lefferts Gardens, where she adores the
proximity to Prospect Park, Manhattan and the beach. In her free time, she enjoys animal rescue, yoga, reading, writing, watching films, cooking and traveling.
