About
I was an independent broker for 18 years, building my brand from a sole practitioner to broker-owner of a market-leading brand with three offices and nearly 100 agents. In 2023, I merged with Howard Hanna Rand Realty, which allowed me to remain with a family-owned independent brand and have more resources to focus on taking care of my clients. I was MLS President in 2014 and remain active with the local association, serving nine years on Zillow's Agent Advisory Board. I also write regularly for industry publications. The most important thing to me is a happy and satisfied clientele, and I have over 400 five-star ratings on Zillow. I produce a significant amount of consumer-educating content on my blog and YouTube channel.

Phil was so amazing through the whole process of selling my apartment. He was so knowledgeable about the market, responsive to my questions and circumstances, and made the whole process less stressful. He is a kind, wonderful person and I would recommend him to anyone.

I had a very pleasant experience working with Anika as my real estate agent. From the very beginning, she demonstrated an unparalleled level of patience, professionalism, expertise, and dedication.

Anika took the time to understand my needs and preferences, providing me with a curated list of properties that matched my criteria perfectly. She was always available to answer my questions, provide insightful advice, and guide me through every step of the home-buying process.

What impressed me the most was her attention to detail and commitment to ensuring I found a good home. She negotiated excellently on my behalf, securing a great deal for me. Additionally, Anika's knowledge of the local market and network of contacts was and continues to be an invaluable asset.

Throughout the process, Anika maintained clear open and consistent communication, making sure I was informed and comfortable with every decision. She went above and beyond to make my home-buying journey smooth and stress-free.

I highly recommend Anika to anyone looking to buy, sell or even rent a home(she helped me with that too!). Her dedication, expertise, and genuine care for clients makes her an exceptional real estate professional. Thank you, Anika!

If you are looking for someone with Excellent communication, dedicated, & consistency, oh & let’s not leave out patient Anika will be that person for you hands down. I just would like to give Anika her flowers for being very helpful throughout this journey & trust me this was hectic but not once did she give up on me. She stood TALL on every challenge or obstacle that came our way & executed it. I’m crying tears of joy as I write this.

I presented Anika with a voucher program that was new to her & Westchester County & to myself as well. It was a lot of confusions & miscommunication throughout this process from submitting paperwork to getting approvals sheesh. I think I apologized & thank Anika everyday throughout this process because it was A LOT & of course she was very patient & understanding she gets a 10/10.

I personally recommend Anika to anyone looking for a place to rent or buy she will not disappoint you or no challenge is ever too much for her, Many more blessings to you THANK YOU SO MUCH !

Anika was our realtor for our first home purchase! She is a committed and dedicated realtor who truly cares about her clients from start to finish. She is a wealth of information and was extremely communicative with us, which helped us to make informed and empowering decisions. As first time home buyers, we were able to trust Anika's insights and she made herself available for us to debrief and ask questions when determining strategy about moving forward. She encouraged us throughout the process and was a great connector to our lender and attorney whenever we needed to have a quick conference call to discuss strategy moving forward. She is a great listener, strategist, communicator, connector, and support. She was timely in her responses and went above and beyond for us from the beginning to closing. We are grateful to have worked with her and encourage others to hire Anika for her services. When you work with Anika, you're getting more than a realtor - you're getting an encourager and support for the home purchase and beyond!

Elena did a fantastic job with helping me buy my co-op! She was quick with sending me new listings, answering questions, and setting up showings. She knows Westchester very well. She was a reassuring expert to have at my side through the entire home-buying process.
