“A 130-year-old townhouse has secrets. The cornice, the parlor floor pitch, the boiler in the basement — they all tell you something. My job is to read those secrets out loud, before you sign anything.”
How I Can Help
From Park Slope to Fort Greene, Diane guides families through historic-townhouse purchases — block-by-block walks, structural read-throughs, attorney-vetted contracts, and the long tail of co-op board prep when the building requires it.
Learn More →The co-op board package is where most buyers stall. Diane runs a clean, attorney-coordinated package — financials, references, employment letters, debt-to-income — so the board sees a story they want to approve, not a stack to question.
Learn More →Not ready to tour? Start with a 60-minute strategy call: which neighborhood actually fits your school zone, what a townhouse really costs to maintain, how mansion tax and transfer taxes shift the budget, and what your next six months really look like.

Before real estate, Diane spent six years as a historic-preservation consultant on Brooklyn townhouses — landmark filings, façade conditions, parlor-floor restorations. That background shows up in the way she walks a property, flags settlement and water staining before the inspector arrives, and writes contingency language that actually accounts for a 130-year-old building.
Client Stories
“Diane walked us through the parlor floor and immediately said ‘the cornice is original, but that beam is 1990s — they did the kitchen wrong.’ She read the building before we even got to the contract. By the third tour we trusted her more than the listing broker.”Daniel & Kara L. · Park Slope
