I have designed this site to provide you with a wealth of information on Larchmont, Mamaroneck, New Rochelle and Rye New York. All of these unique communities are located along the shores of Long Island Sound and offer easy access to New York City.
This site will allow you to browse my featured properties, search local listings and learn about the neighborhoods that make these communities special. For example, you can learn all about Larchmont Manor, Larchmont Woods, Paine Heights, Howell Park, Harbor Island, Rye Beach and many other local neighborhoods. You can also search all southern Westchester properties that are covered by the Westchester Putnam Multiple Listing Service. There is a special section on relocating here from Manhattan as I do assist many clients with this move. Sign up for one of my ongoing newsletters and I will send you market analysis (see buttons below), home buying and selling tips and the latest listings.
Whether you are a buyer or seller located in Larchmont, Mamaroneck, New Rochelle or Rye already, or are moving here for the first time, I have the local information and resources you need to be successful. Contact me today and we can begin creating a customized real estate strategy for you. I guarantee your privacy will be respected.

First Time Buyers >The Perfect House Home buyers must often deal with deferred maintenance or repairs. For example, you may have found a terrific house and like many competent home buyers, you included a structural inspection contingency in your purchase agreement. What happens when you find out that your "perfect" house needs some work? Do you ask the sellers to pay for the repairs? Before you answer "yes", there are some important considerations.
Some contracts require that all of the home's systems, such as plumbing, heating, electrical and central air conditioning, be in working order. In this case, the sellers may be obligated to repair any problems with these systems. Leaky roofs, damp basements, or other structural problems may not be covered, however. If you ask the sellers to make these types of repairs, you may void the contract by doing so. The sellers might prefer to negotiate the repairs to keep from losing the sale. If there are other buyers waiting in the wings with back-up contracts, you run the risk of losing the home.
