Susanne Columbia

With 24 years of experience representing Manhattan’s finest luxury properties, Susanne Columbia of Compass has earned a reputation among her clients and peers as one of Manhattan's most respected real estate brokers. Named by the Wall Street Journal as one of the top 250 brokers in the nation. Susanne has a track record of 700 closed sales totaling over $1.6 billion. 

Susanne has a level of experience and market insight that few can match. Before joining Compass, Susanne ran a top team at Corcoran and was a Sales Director on multiple new development projects while working at Corcoran Sunshine. 

Nothing is more gratifying to Susanne than seeing customers find that special place called home, except perhaps the integral, important role she plays as the real estate professional who makes it all happen. The same can be said in her role as advisor to sellers; she first understands the client's needs, then creates an individual strategy to achieve the highest possible price. 

Understanding the many choices a buyer faces, Susanne hones in on the best options for each individual and then streamlines the action plan once the right deal comes along. Her in-depth knowledge as a born-and-raised New Yorker and nearly lifelong residency here lend to Susanne's expert ability to decipher neighborhoods, buildings, and apartment types, making her the ideal agent for discerning buyers and sellers deserving of the most seasoned, results-driven, discreet service possible.

Susanne enthusiastically admits that she loves what she does and feels fortunate to have helped navigate so many wonderful people through the complex Manhattan real estate process. The strong client relationships she has forged are the backbone of her business and the reason for her success.

Happily married to a composer and playwright, Susanne and her husband are long-time TriBeCa residents who've lived in many Downtown enclaves over the years. Favorite leisure-time interests for Susanne include theater and movie-going as well as gardening when her hectic work schedule allows.
