Selling Your Staten Island Home in 2025: 7 Insider Tips for a Fast, Profitable Sale
Staten Island is no longer the city’s best-kept secret. With buyers seeking more space and value, this borough is having a moment—and sellers are reaping the rewards. If you’re thinking about listing your home this year, follow these 7 proven tips to position your property for a fast, profitable sale.
Why Staten Island Is Gaining Attention from NYC Buyers
Post-pandemic buyer trends have shifted. Many are trading cramped Manhattan or Brooklyn spaces for larger homes, private driveways, and yards—all more attainable on Staten Island. And with the North Shore’s continued development and ferry access, demand is growing fast.
Tip #1 – Price It Right From Day One
Overpricing can stall your listing and hurt your bottom line. I offer custom comparative market analyses based on recent Staten Island sales, seasonal patterns, and buyer behavior—ensuring we hit the sweet spot that generates offers fast.
Tip #2 – Use Storytelling to Showcase Lifestyle
Buyers aren't just buying square footage—they're buying a lifestyle. Whether it’s a home near Clove Lakes Park or a Tottenville colonial with water views, I craft messaging that highlights what it feels like to live there.
Tip #3 – Don’t Skip Professional Photography
Too many sellers rely on outdated or cellphone photos. I bring in professional photographers and videographers to make your property pop online—where 97% of buyers start their search.
Tip #4 – Stage for Staten Island's Buyer Demographic
From growing families to empty nesters looking for peace and privacy, Staten Island’s buyer pool is unique. I tailor staging and marketing to appeal directly to the audience most likely to buy your home.
Tip #5 – Maximize Local + Digital Exposure
Your home will be featured on all the major listing sites, but also:
-
Facebook + Instagram ad campaigns targeting NYC buyers
-
Custom property websites
-
Email blasts to over 10,000 agents
-
Direct mail to local homeowners
Tip #6 – Offer Private Tours and Broker Exclusives
Private showings create exclusivity and allow for real-time feedback. I also leverage the SERHANT network for off-market buzz before your home even hits the MLS.
Tip #7 – Work With a Multiborough Agent Who Understands the Market
I work across Manhattan, Brooklyn, and Staten Island—so I know exactly how to position your property to urban buyers seeking more space, better value, or a quieter lifestyle.
