About DeWayne A. Powell

For me real estate is the perfect combination of esthetics and emotion. I take much satisfaction in helping others find shelter that provides security and fulfills a personal, social, or community need. "When I can make the right match between buyers and sellers (and their personalities and needs) I feel an enormous sense of pride and accomplishment." Entrepreneurial and independent-spirited to the bone, I am a dedicated professional. A former practicing attorney, I am a skilled negotiator with over 36 years of experience in litigation and corporate law, the music entertainment and fashion industry, and real estate, all of which I bring to bear in service of my clients' best interests. As evidenced by the many testimonials that I have amassed over the years, I am well liked and praised by my clients. Whether their budget is $10 or $10MM I'll do the necessary research to find the "one" and will go the full distance to help them overcome any obstacles and get to the closing table--from creative deal structuring to keeping a watchful eye on the transaction details that can mean the difference between failure and success. My husband and I live between a classic-six pre-war apartment in the Washington Heights section of NYC and a ca. 1850 center hall colonial farmhouse in Ghent (upstate NY). The farmhouse sits on 48 acres of fertile soils, on which the famed Hawthorne Valley Farm purveyors have been known to grow hay, wheat, and barley and where grazing cattle dot the fields in spring, summer, and fall. Politically active and a self-described "chronic volunteer," I am a former long-serving member of the Hudson Area Library Board of Trustees and a current member of the board of Perfect Ten After School, Inc. I am also an active member of my law school's black alumni organization. I am a native of Nassau, Bahamas, and a graduate of both Georgetown University's McDonough School of Business and Boston College Law School. I am a frequent traveler, love engaging with people of diverse cultures--and am an especially avid fan of anything Brasilian. I have a conversational knowledge of Portuguese, Spanish, French and German. The child of West Indian immigrants, I am also fluent in Jamaican patois. I have been actively practicing real estate since March 2014.

Dewayne is truly the best! I had the pleasure of working with Dewayne for my very first home purchase, and I couldnt have been in better hands. He understood what I was looking for and he provided me with several great option until we found the right one. Dewayne was professional, respectful, diligent, patient, and understanding because this was my first home purchase, so he took additional time to answer all my questions and thoroughly explain the home buying process. I was so fortunate to find Dewayne.

We were incredibly lucky to connect with DeWayne during the beginning of our home search. It meant a lot to us to have someone in our corner who we knew we could trust (especially with a life decision this large), and who asked all the questions we never even thought of. Buying a home for the very first time can be a daunting and nerve-racking experience, but we always knew we could rely on his feedback, his expert opinion and his recommendations. We valued his input each step of the way and we honestly couldn't have done it without him. We are eternally grateful for his patience and support and can't wait to start our lives in our new home! Thank you, DeWayne!

We can't recommend DeWayne highly enough. He is everything you'd ever wish for in a real estate agent, starting with the fact that you immediately forget he is one because he makes looking for a house so much fun! And we were demanding clients in a hot market. Frankly, we expected to be looking for a very long time and not necessarily be on top of DeWayne's list. But we always felt as if we were his only clients, he truly listened to what we were looking for, he registered both of our reactions especially when they were not aligned. And when he made the impossible possible by finding us a home that checked all our boxes in barely 10 weeks, we were stunned.And it didn't stop here. DeWayne negotiated expertly on our behalf, put us in touch with a fabulous legal team and a great inspector - he simply impressed us every step of the way!! We don't exaggerate if we say, DeWayne surpassed our expectations.
