Karen Sharf’s Luxury Market Update

Dear Friends & Neighbors,

As a luxury real estate specialist with Daniel Gale Sotheby’s International Realty, I am thrilled to share my passion for homes, design, and all things related to luxury living. For over 30 years, I have had the privilege of helping clients find their dream homes, blending my knowledge of the market with a deep understanding of design trends, architecture, and how people want to live and entertain. My love for what I do is the driving force behind my work, and it brings me great joy to help clients make one of the most important investments in their lives.

Beyond real estate, I draw inspiration from my passion for travel and entertaining, which allows me to bring a fresh and unique perspective to my work. Whether I’m designing an intimate event or experiencing beautiful properties around the world, I continuously gather ideas that influence my approach to creating luxurious and comfortable living spaces for my clients. My travels provide a global outlook on design trends and architectural styles, which I use to help my clients visualize their perfect home or present their properties in the most compelling light.

I believe that every home has a story, and every client is unique. With over three decades of experience, I am fully equipped to offer a level of service that is both personal and professional, ensuring that your needs are met with care and precision. Whether you’re buying or selling, my goal is to make the experience seamless and enjoyable, while honoring your vision every step of the way. I look forward to the opportunity to work together and to share my love for real estate, design, and luxury living with you.

Having a love for homes and design, Karen Sharf began her Real Estate career 25+ years ago in NYC. At that time Karen also learned that she had a talent for matching customers to their dream homes. Be it a Manhattan apartment, luxury brownstone, suburban home, or country manor, the union of buyers and sellers has and always will be a thrill for Karen. Known for spotting unique and quality homes and investments in every price range, Karen has developed a strong customer/client base.

Over the years Karen has also been involved in many development projects such as land purchase, sub-divisions and home restoration. This experience has made her a very diverse broker, knowledgeable in a multitude of areas that can only benefit her clientele in the buying and selling of properties. Beyond Karen’s residential sales and management capabilities, her skills set, and talents have enabled her to oversee several large development projects throughout Long Island.

From developing agent talent, helping to strategically price and market homes, to working with her own portfolio of client and customers, Karen is a seasoned professional with a wealth of knowledge in all aspects of Real Estate.

Luxury Is an Experience, Not a Price Point.

To me it's the little things that define luxury, it’s never the price tag. It’s the charm of a home, the style, the warmth and beauty.

Luxury is also in the detailed services I provide. An elevated experience for both buyer and seller is what I’m all about.

Let me show you the difference when working with a top agent that truly understands and delivers quality and luxury in everything I do.

A Bit about Me, Some of My Other Interests

Travel

I aways need to have a trip to look forward to. I love to explore, love to learn about other cultures, the history, and I love looking at real estate wherever I go.

Design

I have always said I went into real estate because I’m a frustrated interior designer. I love to see a house transformed and come to life. I also always have a decorating project of some sort going on in my own home.

Entertaining

Setting a beautiful table, beautiful flowers, great food, wine, with friends and family, nothing brings me more joy.

Fashion

I just love to dress up! Fun fact, I always match my outfits to the house I am representing on picture day.

Yoga & Bridge

Yoga to keep me strong and calm, bridge to keep my mind sharp.

“Karen is a professional with many years of experience. This is the second time we worked together to sell our homes. I would not hesitate to use Karen and welcome her advice and expertise ”

-Marietta

“Karen’s level of service has been superb since Day 1! She contacted me right away after receiving my on-line inquiry for what turned out to be my dream home! Her communication and follow through has been very prompt, courteous, and always professional, and she has served as a wonderful conduit between the seller and I throughout the process. I would recommend Karen to anyone selling or buying a new home. It’s evident that she takes pride in her work, and is very knowledgeable about the market and making sure properties are priced right! Thanks Karen for shepherding this process through to the end!”

-Tricia

“I highly recommend Karen for any and all of your real estate needs. She is a true professional and has a thorough knowledge of the buying/selling process and of her market area. Her responsiveness and dedication make her an asset to the process. It has been a great experience dealing with Karen.”

-Jasprfan

“We had an excellent experience working with Karen. Without her guidance, patience and persistence, we would not have found our dream home. We were first time homebuyers with very little knowledge in real estate. Karen taught us everything we needed to know and made the home buying experience very enjoyable and smooth. Her expertise and passion for her work are very evident. She has the ability to see the true potential in homes and her many years in the field have made her a trustworthy professional. Karen also made herself available to us all days of the week. She was in close contact with us by phone, emails and texts and we found her to be very reliable. A++”
