The New York City real estate market is diverse, yet specific. As such, depending on their experience and deal history, Experts can opt in or out of receiving certain types of buyer and seller connections.
These segments (some of which are also addressed in Types of Connections – and How to Work Them) are a great way for Experts to refine their connections based on their expertise and where they can help consumers the most. Here’s your guide to all available segments.
