People first
Real estate is personal. We listen carefully, communicate clearly, and stay with you through closing — not just until the paperwork starts.

Common questions from buyers and owners we work with on Long Island.
Earnest money shows you are serious about buying. It is usually between 1–5% of the purchase price (local customs vary). If your offer is accepted, it typically applies to your down payment or closing costs. If the offer is rejected, it is generally returned; if you back out, you may forfeit it — we will walk you through the specifics for your contract.
