Downsizing in Westchester — Simplified

Selling your home in Westchester County requires more than just putting a sign in the yard. Whether you’re an empty nester looking to simplify, relocating out of state, or ready to embrace a new chapter, I bring the experience, tools, design sense, and strategy to help you transition with ease.

As a trusted Westchester Realtor with Compass, I handle every detail—from preparing your home for market to coordinating Compass Concierge improvements that elevate its value to connecting you with organizers. My goal is to make the process as seamless, strategic, and stress-free as possible, ensuring your next move feels effortless from start to finish.

If you’re considering selling your home in Westchester County, reach out today when you have the earliest thought of selling.


Project Management That Delivers Results

When you are ready to sell your Westchester home, every detail matters. My full service project management ensures your property is prepared for a faster sale at the highest possible value. I work with professional organizers who can help declutter, sell items, and streamline your home. Ask me about my 30 Days to Market Ready calendar to stay on track.


Compass Concierge: Up to $25,000 for Home Improvements

Through Compass Concierge, you can access up to $25,000 advanced for home improvements and moving costs. This means you can maximize your home’s value without paying out of pocket first, an essential advantage for anyone downsizing in Westchester.

I recommend starting with a pre inspection to address potential deal breakers before investing in cosmetic updates. I know what today’s buyers want and will help you prepare your home to attract the widest possible audience.


The Compass Three Phased Marketing Strategy

Selling a home in Westchester requires more than just placing a listing online. Compass’ proven three phased strategy ensures your home is positioned for maximum exposure and results.

  1. Pre Market Preparation
    I guide you through staging, improvements, and pricing strategy so your home makes the strongest first impression.

  2. Launch Strategy
    Your property will be marketed across Compass’ exclusive channels and syndicated to all major platforms, reaching motivated buyers locally and nationwide.

  3. Ongoing Optimization
    I monitor performance, adjust strategy, and provide you with real time feedback to keep momentum strong until the right offer is secured.

This layered approach ensures your Westchester home stands out in a competitive market and sells for its full potential.


Nationwide Network of Top Agents

Wherever your Westchester move takes you, whether Florida, New York City, Austin, or beyond, I will connect you with a trusted agent in my national network. Between the relationships I built during my decade long tenure at Sotheby’s and my new connections at Compass, I will find the right professional to ensure a seamless transition. Together we will make certain that you not only sell well here but also arrive exactly where you want to be next.
