Buying & selling a home is a major life decision.
I’ll help you feel confident you’re making the right one, at every stage of the process.
Whether you’re looking to buy, sell, or both, I deliver personalized, concierge-level service every step of the way — backed by the trusted Houlihan Lawrence name. From our first phone call to Closing Day and beyond, I’ll be your trusted guide throughout the home-buying or selling process.
Here’s how it works:
01.
Setting the vision.
During this important step, I’ll get to the heart of your story and what your future goals are. This is where we’ll begin to set the stage for what you want in your future home and how we’ll market your existing home. Bring a cup of coffee (or glass of chablis) because this is the fun stuff.
02.
Studying the market.
I'll run a thorough comparative market analysis to determine the most strategic list price (if selling) or give you clear expectations (if buying). Data matters — and I use it to your advantage.
03.
Make a plan.
Together, we’ll create a detailed game plan and schedule that makes sure the entire process is as seamless and stress-free as possible. This may include timing for prepping your home, getting pre-approval, or arranging for a temporary storage unit.
04.
I hustle.
Bronxville moves fast — and so do I. My boots-on-the-ground, behind-the-scenes hustle ensures your home gets maximum visibility and your offer stands out when you’re buying. All while you focus on life.
05.
Negotiate.
This is where experience matters most. Whether you’re reviewing multiple offers or navigating contingencies, I’ll make sure you’re in a position of strength, protecting your interests and maximizing your return.
06.
Celebrate.
Even after closing, I’ll be here as a resource and neighbor. Need help settling in? Want to know where to grab a celebratory glass of wine? I’ve got you.
“Valerie was invaluable to me when I sold my home. She helped me with the staging and prepping for the open house. I was resistant at first but then realized that “she’s the pro” and boy was I right. I followed through on all her recommendations. We had offers within 48 hours of being on the market and were in contract within a week. I credit much of that to her.”

Modern Marketing
When it comes to selling your home, I’ll go far beyond open houses and listing it on the MLS. From professional staging and photography to digital marketing and one-to-one networking, your home will be more talked about than the first season of Bridgerton.

House hunting from the city? I’ll be your eyes and ears on the ground, taking you on virtual FaceTime tours so you never miss an opportunity to find The One.

You’ll have access to my network of carefully vetted cleaning crews, landscapers, painters, etc. (including the discounts we've negotiated). I also leverage my network when it comes to staying on top of upcoming listings or interested buyers.
Backed by a Team & Trusted Brand
As part of Houlihan Lawrence, I offer white-glove service supported by a powerhouse team. You’ll get the attention of an independent agent with the backing of a market leader.
