Sandra Balan

With over four decades of combined experience and over $1 billion of residential real estate sold, Sandra Balan and her longtime business partner Samantha Pinkowitz don’t see problems; they only see solutions. For many years running they have ranked in the top 1.5% of all real estate professionals nationwide by sales volume, as recognized by RealTrends and the Wall Street Journal, and their high proportion of repeat and referral business is testament to their client satisfaction. In addition to multiple appearances on HGTV, Sandra has been featured in numerous publications such as The New York Times, New York Post, New York Magazine, and New York Family.

Hard-won experience has taught Sandra and Samantha how to surmount every conceivable transactional speedbump, equipping them to take even the most challenging deals over the finish line. In the instances where their team was the second or third broker to receive a listing, they have sold homes other brokers could not, proving their ability to engineer a successful deal under any circumstances.

As lifelong New Yorkers, Sandra and Samantha are intimately acquainted with all of the city’s constituent neighborhoods as well as deeply familiar with all of the city’s finest buildings. Their transactions in buildings of this caliber have led them to amass a client base that values efficiency, discretion, and profit maximization, all of which they consistently deliver. They maintain contact with the hundreds of satisfied clients they have assisted over the years, connections that provide them with access to networks beyond the reach of most real estate professionals.
