About Leigh
Born and raised on Manhattan’s Upper West Side, Leigh brings a refreshing blend of New York energy and grounded compassion to her real estate practice. Now deeply rooted with her husband from Nepal and their two amazing daughters, Leigh’s life is shaped by purpose, family, and community. Together, they’ve founded schools in Nepal — a reflection of their shared belief in giving back and building brighter futures.
Leigh has been licensed in real estate since 2016 and became a Broker in 2019. Her deep market knowledge and keen sense for strategy make her the go-to expert for selling vintage, mid-century, and one-of-a-kind homes. Known for her transparent communication, flawless staging guidance, creative marketing, and strong negotiation skills, Leigh consistently achieves results that push the boundaries of what any market will bear.
Her guiding philosophy is simple: “I’m more of a midwife than a salesperson.” For buyers, she’s a patient guide who believes homeownership is a journey — one that should feel personal, empowering, and never pressured. For sellers, she’s a meticulous strategist who handles every detail, turning preparation and marketing into an art form that maximizes every home’s story and value.
From start to finish, Leigh merges professionalism with heart. Her love and respect for the outdoors mirror her approach to real estate — calm, clear, and rooted in authenticity. Clients know her not just as an agent but as a trusted ally who absorbs the stress so they can focus on the excitement of what’s next.

Leigh Tripathi is so awesome. She took the time to listen to what we were looking for and showed us homes that we loved. She is such a patient and encouraging person. Leigh was always available when we needed her. She made us feel like we were her only client. We loved working with her. It is because of her exceptional experience in real estate and her compassion for what she does that I have decided to pursue a career in real estate. I could only hope to work as hard for my clients as she did for us. I would highly recommend her to anyone looking to buy or sell their home.

Leigh was amazing trough the whole process. Always making sure that our needs were met and looking out after us.
Really appreciated how involved she was with the search and after we had decided with the whole process.
She was quick to responde to our messages and emails and always picked up the phone when speaking was a better option.
Would recommend Leight without any doubt.
