At the desk of: Pam Liebman

Big brokerages, says Pam Liebman, president of the Corcoran Group, are often stereotyped as being somewhat stiff. But, she says, that’s not a fair characterization. And, in her office at 660 Madison Avenue, where the music is usually on and Liebman can occasionally be found putting golf balls, she is bucking that image. That might be because business has been pretty good lately, despite the economic uncertainty. While the $500,000 to $1.5 million Manhattan home market has softened since the early spring, Liebman points out that the highest-priced properties are flourishing. Plus, in May, Corcoran ranked tops in the city in terms of listings — 1,815 of them, at $3.5 billion.
