Broker Barbara Feldman plays Hamptons matchmaker

New site brings together buyers, sellers, brokers

From the July issue: This month, East Hampton real estate broker Barbara Feldman will launch HamptonsBrokerMatchup.com, an online referral service designed to match buyers and sellers with brokers. For the past six years, Feldman has sold real estate in the Hamptons, independently and at several firms, including Prudential Douglas Elliman. In that time, she said, she noticed that buyers in the area have an especially hard time finding the right broker, given the wide variety of different price ranges and property types in the Hamptons.

“In the Hamptons, there are so many different kinds of properties,” Feldman said. As a result, “a broker really has to know their stuff in order to estimate a sale value.” [more]
