Clients continually praise Lisa Shaw for having their best interest at heart, not just caring about “the sale.” Lisa is very professional, kind, patient and honest, which buyers, sellers and renters find to be a breath of fresh air when working with her. Many go so far as to say that Lisa is “by far, the most helpful broker I've ever had in NYC.” She knows how to ask the right questions, and establishes trust quickly amidst the stress and confusion that often presents itself when looking for a new home.
Lisa has specialized in residential real estate, primarily in Brooklyn, for over five years. She has closed hundreds of rental deals, works with buyers and sellers, and has earned a steady stream of repeat and referral customers due to her outstanding service. Lisa loves connecting with and helping people, so being a good real estate agent came naturally. She understands the importance of taking time to know and educate her clients, and negotiates skillfully on their behalf when they find a home that's “the one.”
As a 20+-year Brooklyn resident, Lisa knows the ins and outs of the borough very well. She works with clients in a diversity of neighborhoods including Ditmas Park, Windsor Terrace, Park Slope, Midwood, Homecrest, Flatbush, Crown Heights and other communities in the “Heart of Brooklyn.” Lisa has lived in Park Slope, Prospect Heights, and currently Ditmas Park. She loves the area because hundreds of different languages are spoken in the street, but the warmth and friendliness of neighbors shines through.
Originally from Westport, CT, Lisa holds a Bachelor's degree in Liberal Arts from Providence College. She previously worked in the music industry in marketing and music management. As the busy mother of twins, Lisa has come to be a NYC public school navigation expert as well as a real estate aficionado. Her other roles include soccer coach and soccer taxi, and her once-enjoyed culinary pallet has been reduced to chicken fingers and Mac-n-Cheese prep (but it's worth it!).
