Afterward, Compass agent and certified StreetEasy ExpertScott Savory joined to discuss how he helps New Yorkers go from dreaming about a home to successfully closing on one. He focused on three key stages every hopeful homeowner needs to navigate — and the industry pros you want to have in your corner for each.
