About Laurel Lustgarten

Laurel Lustgarten has been a full time realtor since 2003 and a resident of the Hudson Valley since 1994. Her high level of energy, enthusiasm and market knowledge is the perfect combination to bring a successful outcome whether you are buying or selling a home. Having built a reputation for client satisfaction, Laurel is devoted to providing service beyond your expectations. A recurring theme in her online reviews is that her clients feel they not only had an outstanding experience but her authentic nature made them feel as though they were working with a friend and a steadfast ally through the process. Building relationships is key! Laurel's commitment to her business and to her clients recently caught the attention of a national television network and she had the privilege of being featured in an episode of House Hunters on HGTV. This was the first time the show was filmed in the Hudson Valley. Neither Laurel nor her buyer clients will ever forget this experience and the show is still airing in reruns! In fact, there may be another episode in her future. Another career highlight was the thrill of being selected as top realtor in the Reader's Choice "Best of the Best" Awards. This contest is sponsored by the Times Herald Record and starts with a public nomination followed by two online rounds of voting and the announcement that she was chosen number one! What a special and humbling recognition. Laurel has also enjoyed being part of the elite group of real estate professionals recognized as America's Top 100 Real Estate Agents and becoming a Rand Realty Legend in 2022. Selecting the right real estate professional is crucial. Laurel's "hands on" approach, industry expertise and client oriented focus yields outstanding results.

Laurel was amazing! From the minute we met her we knew she was our realtor. Her knowledge of the area and coat analysis was spot on. The entire process with her guidance went smoothly. We are beyond thrilled with the results. Thanks to Laurel we closed within 6 weeks which is not the norm.

I did my homework when searching for just the right realtor to help sell our condo, to the point of interviewing them before I selected Laurel. Laurel was familiar with the somewhat unique aspects of the complex my condo was located in; she was completely upfront about the process of selling my condo in today's market and buyer's expectations. During the walk through she noted the positive aspects of the property noted those I might want to update or change and what to leave as is to best show the property and attain our goals. When reviewing the comps, she supported my idea to go over the current market a bit to allow for negotiating by the buyer. When offers were made, and they came within days, she guided me through choosing the best offer to accept; the one which would most likely complete the process of purchase. BTW, we got our full asking price and closed in record time! Now about Laurel. She is professional, knowledgeable, prepared, responsive like no other, encouraging and made me feel like I was the only client she had. We worked together as a team. I did my homework, and I chose the right realtor, Laurel Lustgarten. If you are looking for a realtor to help you through this process, look no further, it's Laurel Lustgarten without a doubt.

What truly stood out was Laurel's unwavering communication and support. She kept me informed every step of the way, patiently answering my countless questions and easing any worries I had. Her warm and positive demeanor made what could have been a stressful experience feel much more manageable.
