Get to Know Ann Lee Faranda of J. Philip Real Estate, Briarcliff Manor NY

By
Home Stager with Owner, The Refreshed Home White Plains NY

Ann Lee Faranda is a Realtor, Co-Owner and Partner of J. Philip Real Estate LLC in Briarcliff Manor NY.

Growing up in Rego Park Queens (NY), Ann started her career with a strong academic background: First, winning admission into NYC's prestegious Stuyvesant High School, she went on and completed her undergrad work at Columbia University.

After earning her MBA, she lived overseas for a few years, working for Samsung; then handling grant administration for Rockefeller University.

 J. Philip Real Estate LLC has been a true partnership from it's inception in 2005.  Since receiving her real estate license in 2006, Ann's administration has helped the company grow exponentially.

Working with her husband/Broker Phil Faranda, they quadrupled the number of year to date transactions in that next six months. Fast-forwarding to 2012, their agency ended the year with 33 agents on staff, and in the top 6% of number of closed transactions, out of 900 other firms in the lower Hudson Valley. And oh yes, she is also a full-time mom to four smart, creative and well-rooted children.

I first knew of Ann about 5 years ago, through Phil, and finally met her live and in person about a year later.  What makes Ann Lee Faranda  so special goes beyond the numbers, and systems she's implemented. Simply-buyers, sellers, and agents alike respond to her...well, responsiveness. Whether she is organizing 50+ listings for their 33 agents, or keeping appointments straight, deadlines met, and pieces of paper in place-Ann is as kind and nuturing as she is detailed and efficient.

Like the swan that appears to glide effortlessly over the lake-you never see the hard work, the furious paddling under the water that actually propels the swan to where it wants to go-such is the real estate professional, Ann Lee Faranda, and how things get done at her agency, J. Philip Real Estate LLC.

Our spaces affect us profoundly...and so many other parts in our life fall into place when our spaces and possessions serve us in the best way they can. But getting there is much more than a pursuit of pleasing aesthetics.

 

Decorating and Staging are different, but much of the skill sets overlap, and each creates unique solutions that considers the needs, goals, resources, expectations, hopes and dreams of each client.

Bettering Westchester, Putnam and lower Fairfield counties since 1981, The Refreshed Home works collaboratively, and brings a thoughtful approach to the creative process. Proud to make a difference, as well as make a living. Offering specialty services such as remote and buyer consults, listing photo/video styling, guided and accompanied shopping, and accessory rental. We get in, get out, and you get on with your life.  Talk to me TODAY about how we can better your space!

Thanks Roger, all the way around. Phil is awesome in his own right, but something Leslie Ebersole commented on in FB made me realize people need to know the 'OTHER' Faranda :)
