Brown Harris Stevens Senior Vice President Jean Michael draws on nearly 20 years of experience in New York City real estate to provide each client with an unparalleled level of service and salesmanship. Originally from California, she came to New York in 1973, and began forming the impressive reputation among her network of friends and associates that continues to characterize her business today. Formerly with The Corcoran Group for over fourteen years, she was a yearly member of its select Multi-Million Dollar Club. Throughout her dealings with both buyers and sellers, she has been consistently recognized in the industry as a top producer and a powerful ally in any real estate transaction. With a strong referral base that spans the city, Jean has sold cooperatives, condominiums and townhouses throughout the Upper Eastside and Westside, as well as Downtown and Brooklyn. She is an experienced partner throughout the sales process, demonstrating strong negotiating skills, resourcefulness and patience. She thoroughly enjoys the challenge of finding her customers that perfect home or investment. With her warm and friendly manner and industry expertise, she is as much at ease discussing décor with clients as she is with the marketing and financial aspects of each sale. When representing exclusive properties, she is able to draw on her extensive resources and proven marketing techniques to reach qualified buyers quickly and efficiently. A careful listener with an extraordinary eye for detail, she succeeds in bringing an added dimension to her work: the ability to see from a fresh, creative perspective how space can be adapted to satisfy individual requirements. Having renovated several of her own properties, Jean's suggestions are always imaginative and practical. Jean's business acumen is augmented by her previous careers in administration and project management with The National Endowment for the Arts, Federation of Jewish Philanthropies, and The NYC Police Foundation. In her spare time, she loves playing golf and travelling.
