Susan Silverman
Equal parts creative visionary and savvy, business-minded dealmaker, Susan Silverman delivers outstanding real estate results with a focused, meticulous style and value-driven mindset. She's a tenacious negotiator with decades of luxury sales experience, and she possesses stellar customer service skills and a keen eye that helps clients envision the endless possibility of space – whether she's amplifying a listing's appeal through staging and photography or helping buyers conceptualize a diamond in the rough. Her strategy seamlessly aligns with the Nest Seekers International brand, which emphasizes luxury client service on a global scale while ensuring hyper-local expertise. Backed by more than a decade of real estate experience, Susan is an unstoppable force that will not quit until her clients have found their dream home, maximized their investment strategy with a 1031 Exchange or sold their existing property for top dollar.
Susan honed the rich skill set that serves her real estate clients over a long, successful professional career. She spent years at the world's top upscale fashion and beauty brands, including Christian Dior, YSL and Chanel, where she consistently ranked among the top two salespeople at the second-most prolific counter in the country. Susan credits the experience of serving discerning luxury clientele with cultivating her ability to listen to her customer's needs and exceed their expectations. Exceptionally talented at developing relationships, she established trust and rapport with an international client base and won numerous sales and customer service awards in the process. Susan later demonstrated her entrepreneurial drive and passion for travel by launching and leading her own design and accessories brand that took her around the globe, from Mongolia to the mountains of Peru.
Energetic and quick-witted, Susan thrives in a fast-paced, competitive environment. She's extremely persistent, and she has a gift for multitasking while maintaining unflappable grace under pressure. Susan's Certified Negotiation Expert and Certified Probate Specialist designations nod to her dedication to her craft. An expert in Manhattan properties, she sells in the most coveted neighborhoods for luxury real estate in New York City, from Soho, Tribeca, and the Hudson Yards to Uptown Manhattan's most elite and prestigious neighborhoods. As a Brooklyn born native, she's successfully sold in and is also a superb guide to the borough's many enclaves, including Brooklyn Heights, Cobble Hill, Carroll Gardens, Park Slope, Prospect Heights, Ft. Greene, Clinton Hill, Crown Heights and Bedford Stuyvesant as well as historic areas below Prospect Park, such as Prospect Park South, Ditmas Park, Fiske Terrace-Midwood, and Windsor Terrace, where she currently resides. Her upbringing in Long Island has ingrained a deep love of grand estates and equestrian properties, while her city roots make her passionate about historic brownstones.
When she's not hard at work pursuing her clients' goals, Susan can often be found exploring the world both near and far, from hiking in Harriman State Park to snorkeling in Belize. She believes in giving back, especially to causes involving animals and marine wildlife conservation, so many of her travels have involved eco-tourism destinations and voluntourism. Susan's unquenchable thirst for life and passion for people makes each real estate engagement a true adventure.
