I have been a real estate broker on the North Shore of Long Island for several years. Prior to this, I was a CPA for International Financial Corporations. Throughout my career, I have always been involved with real estate investors and construction companies. This experience has enabled me to apply an advanced level of financial knowledge, confidence, negotiation, leadership and professional skills that is unique in real estate sales. I became actively involved in the community as a PTA president, girl scout leader and animal shelter volunteer. I started to become interested in real estate in high school when I started working for appraisers and real estate attorneys. I purchased my first property right after college. Through my years as a Real Estate Broker, I have enjoyed helping families, relocate, buy, sell and help them beyond the deal. I love what I do and I am able to use my extensive knowledge in finance to help people and negotiate on their behalf. Consistently exceeding expectations by combining cutting edge technology with personalized service and core values. Today's buyers and sellers need a trusted resource that can guide them through the complexities of real estate. Professional affiliations include the National Association of Realtors, New York State Realtor Association, Real Estate Buyers Agent Council and New York Society of CPA's.

Patricia (Patty) Santella helped us buy our home in Plainview, after a search that ran from fall 2025 through early April 2026 across Syosset and Plainview. She understood what we wanted early in the process and never pushed us toward a house that wasn't right for us aEUR" when something was off, she told us directly. Her knowledge of pricing and which streets in both towns were worth pursuing kept us realistic in a fast-moving market. During the offer and negotiation stage, she stayed in close contact with our attorney and the seller's broker, catching issues early so nothing held up the closing. Highly recommend her for buying, selling, or renting on Long Island.

Patricia is my agent. I would recommend her to anyone. Her knowledge and expertise made my home buying experience easy and enjoyable. I was looking in Rockville Centre she was well prepared on price points and very knowledgeable of the community. She was always on time and was able to promptly get viewings on all the homes I wished to see. Patty was available to me When ever I needed her. She makes you feel like you are her only client.
