Why Work With a Local Oceanside Realtor
Choosing the right Oceanside realtor can save you tens of thousands on the buy side and weeks of market time on the sell side. I'm Sharon Basiratmand, Esq., a licensed New York real estate broker/owner and a licensed New York attorney, and I specialize in the Oceanside, NY market.
As an Oceanside broker, I bring an extra layer of training and accountability. As an attorney, I bring contract-level scrutiny to every offer, contingency, and closing document. When you work with me, you're working directly with the owner of the firm, not being handed off to a junior agent.
