Top-producing real estate broker Sharon Cohen inspires confidence in clients with clear communication, total transparency and an efficient approach that means not a single second goes to waste. Unfailingly competent and knowledgeable, every move she makes is strategic and informed, and her responsive, solutions-oriented style is backed by more than a decade of industry experience and nearly 30 years of New York City living.
Sharon is a true maverick in Brooklyn real estate. As one of the first agents from a major firm working in the borough's emerging neighborhoods, she deeply believed in their potential. Emblematic of her passion for these up-and-coming Brooklyn enclaves, she moved to Bushwick herself in 2006.
Sharon is also specialized in the Hudson Valley. She purchased her first home in Saugerties over a decade ago and has been exploring the area ever since. She is deeply knowledgeable about the building stock and housing market in the area. She has also led a number of renovations and revitalization home projects which makes her tremendously suited to understanding the value and potential of homes while being a resource for the many professional contacts buyers and sellers rely on. In addition, Sharon's partner is an Architect who specializes in sustainable, net-zero homes and has deeply influenced Sharon's vision and renovations.
As the leader of The Sharon Team, Sharon is more than a broker. She is also a resource for the many professional contacts buyers and sellers rely on. She loves the challenge and the satisfaction of getting her clients what they have been dreaming of, and her loyal clientele raves about her effectiveness in doing so. It is not surprising she was awarded top producer honors five years in a row.
An investor herself, Sharon owns and operates across the city with a specialty in Brooklyn. Sharon specializes in short sales and distressed properties, helping owners who are about to lose their homes find solutions tailored to their unique situations. She is a certified Short Sales and Foreclosures Resource (SFR), Distressed Property Expert (CDPE), and Buyers Specialist (CBR).
Originally from Israel, Sharon lived in Milan and Paris prior to moving to New York City in 1991 to obtain her BFA in photography at Parsons School of Design. After graduation, she owned and operated a prestigious photography printing lab, where she worked with world-renowned fashion photographers on prominent campaigns. In her free time, Sharon enjoys surfing, yoga, hiking, and traveling.
