Patty and Brian were incredibly helpful to us over a 7+ year process. They are well informed, discerning, patient and had our best interests in mind. They helped us find interesting listings early and were particularly great at assessing the quality of houses and builds.
Patty and Brian know the Hamptons inside out. They were warm, patient, and really took the time to understand what we were looking for. They pushed back when something wasn't right for us, caught issues we never would have noticed, always available, and never let us settle. We found our dream home because of them. Truly rare agents. Can't recommend them enough.
Definitely recommend! Patty and Brian did a fantastic job representing me and my wife in our purchase of a home in the Hamptons. They know the area and the other local agents extremely well, give honest advice, and steered us in the right direction as we were considering several options. As we moved toward making an offer and signing the deal, they were always responsive and available and put us in touch with local experts and vendors for all our new homeowner needs.
We chose this outstanding real estate team due to their extensive experience, their engaging approach with buyers (I personally vetted many by posing as a buyer at open houses), and their in-depth knowledge of The Hamptons. They truly exceeded our expectations! Their professionalism provided invaluable guidance on pricing strategies, necessary adjustments, and an understanding of the dynamics within our fluctuating niche market, which was crucial for our unique home. We were especially impressed by their ability to highlight the distinctive advantages of our enclave in the Village of Southampton and their exceptional negotiating skills with prospective clients.
Patty Oakley and Brian Leicht are an amazing realtor team. They helped my sisters and I sell our family home in Watermill. Their knowledge of the local market, trends, and comparable homes and locations were most helpful in establishing a sales price that resulted in a timely sale. They were great communicators throughout the process and very efficient, which I appreciated from my location 7 hours away. They truly know their business and operate seamlessly together. I highly recommend them.
Patty Oakley and Brian Leicht are an exceptional team of realtors, and we HIGHLY RECOMMEND working with their team for your next real estate transaction. Patty worked with my husband and me for over 1 year as we refined what we were looking for in a house "out east". As a true East End local, Patty is an expert in all neighborhoods, areas, "vibes" and cultures of each area of the North and South Forks- always steering us in the best direction for what our family was searching for. She helped us with our negotiations like a true professional. We ultimately closed on the best property for our family, which we believe we would have never found and/or had the opportunity to purchase without her expertise and connections in the area. If real estate comes up in discussion, people in the Hamptons know Patty, and hold her in the highest personal and professional regard. Her work ethic, professionalism, knowledge, kindness, integrity and dedication to her clients make her an exceptional real estate agent. We are eternally grateful to Patty and Brian - the dynamic duo. We cannot recommend this team highly enough!
I recently purchased a home with the help of Brian Leicht and Patty Oakley, and they were fantastic. Super attentive and incredibly helpful throughout the entire process. They were always available to answer my questions and provided great insights into the local market. Their expertise and dedication made the home-buying experience smooth and stress-free. I highly recommend Brian and Patty to anyone looking to buy a home.
Patty and Brian were professional, knowledgeable, patient, caring and most importantly, trustworthy. Weve bought and rented properties locally, nationally and globally and the Patty Oakley/Brian Leight are by far among the best Ive ever worked with. My house was on the market for around a year with no results. Once the Oakley team got involved, they did endless research, including speaking with local officials to understand the intricacies of my home and property. After which, it took them less than six months to sell my house because of their knowledge and expertise. Brian also found me a tremendous rental which is exactly what and where I wanted. I look forward to working with them again in the near future. If youre looking for a house in the Hamptons, I highly recommend Patty and Brian. Theyre the best!
I recently listed my Water Mill home for summer rental, I was very happy with the response time and knowledge of this team. I was impressed with the ideas and marketing plans they have for my house .
Patty Oakley and Laura DeCarlo have shown us numerous listings in the Southampton Area. LAura has been phenomenal in reaching out to other brokers and showing us many listings. We would see a new listing and she was right there to show the listing as soon as we inquired about it. Patty and Laura have demonstrated a very high level of professionalism in every way. LAura had gone above and beyond to assist us with the purchase of our new home.I would highly recommend using these two fabulous people working as a team for all your real estate needs.Thank you for helping us with this real estate purchase.
We worked very closely with Patty for two years as well evaluated a number of different options, including purchasing a new home, buying land and building a new home and building a new home on our current property. She was incredibly helpful as we evaluated our options - showing multiple properties and providing great advice. She has a fantastic knowledge of the home/values in the hamptons and she is a pleasure to work with. She was always available for advice or to answer a question (big or small). Once we decided to purchase land, she was extremely helpful in assisting us with the purchase.

Working with Patty Oakley was the best choice we ever made when deciding to sell our family home. We had been trying to sell our house for over a year with a different broker, then we heard that Patty is an amazing agent so we called her. From the moment we spoke on the phone we knew we were in good hands. After we met, she put a plan in place to get our house sold. She was so organized and professional and available to us at all times. There was not a doubt that she would sell our house, and did, in just a few months. I would highly recommend Patty Oakley, especially if you want to get a great price for your house and to have it sell as quickly as possible. Without Patty we would not have been able to buy the house we had been hoping to buy. Picking a good real estate person is more important than you know. Thankfully we picked Patty.
We can't thank Patty enough for finding our dream summer home in the hamptons. After just one conversation she knew exactly what we were looking for and brought us to see some great homes all while giving us a lot of insight on the town and neighborhood. We ended up buying the first house we saw! We were first time buyers and she helped every step of the way from lawyers to landscapers.
Patty Oakley had unlimited energy and enthusiasm for the listing. Importantly she is a consummate professional, very respectful of all time involved. Unlike other realtors, she was invested in a positive outcome for me and not just herself. She is the real deal.
My wife and I were new to the market, novices with respect to both the Hamptons and buying a second home/rental property.We immediately took a liking to Patty. She was the only broker who gave us the straight facts. Not just the good, but the bad and ugly as well. I recall her advising us not to automatically assume we could rent the property; we should make sure we could afford it, even without the rental income. Every other broker told us buy-buy-buy you will have no trouble renting it.Patty became an invaluable advisor and friend. She helped us find service providers in the area and advised us on both the long and short term implications of our decision. We just closed on our house in Southampton and we are thrilled. I doubt that we would have pulled the trigger without her by our side.
Amazing dedication to her clients,buying or selling and I know because I have done them both at the same time with her. She definitely makes it happen and fast!
Patty is truly an exceptional real estate professional. From our initial point of contact throughout our entire relationship, we have always felt that Patty had our best interest at heart and we NEVER felt pressured to consider a property we weren't interested in. It was really so great to have someone like Patty in our corner as first time home buyers. She's so energetic and passionate about what she does, that it's evident real estate isn't just a hobby for her. Patty took the time to explain in detail what we should expect in buying a home, provided hard copy resources, and was always available to answer any questions we had (and we had a lot). The market knowledge, attention to detail, and level of service Patty provides is unmatched and we felt 110% comfortable confiding in Patty. She's so stellar we can't wait to work with her again!
My wife and I were recommended to Patty by the Westhampton office of Saunders after we decided to shift our vacation home search east of the Canal. We worked with Patty for almost two years and she has been the most knowledgeable and responsive real estate professional we have ever encountered. We purchased a home through Patty in mid-2014. We wanted to take a moment to highlight the degree to which Patty is responsive to customer needs. We looked at between 30 and 40 properties with Patty. In several cases, we had questions and concerns of a legal and/or zoning nature. In each case, within 24 or 48 hours max, Patty had pulled in colleagues, firm resources or personal contacts to get the bottom of these issues. Most significantly, it is the manner in which Patty delivers challenging news which sets her apart. If a particular need we had wasn't going to work because of a property line setback requirement for example, she would tell us what is and what is not possible in her view. The information we got from Patty was always factually correct and accurate. This approach has defined our entire relationship with Patty. Everything is factual and aboveboard. For sophisticated buyers spending substantial sums of money, we can give our highest possible recommendation to Patty Oakley. She has indeed elevated the standards in our mind of what the real estate buying process should entail in the Southampton/Water Mill area.
