When people hear that we work together as siblings, their reactions are always interesting. Some people say "I could never work with my brother or sister!"

But for us, it was a natural progression that brought us all together in real estate.

I began my real estate journey back in 2007 at age 27.

After graduating college I bounced around a few different jobs.  A friend of mine suggested I try selling real estate, I was very reluctant because I didn't have success selling life insurance and mutual funds at a previous job and I really didn't want to try another sales job.

After what seemed like months of convincing I finally agreed to get my real estate license. It took me about three weeks to get my first rental commission and I have been selling real estate full time ever since.

I was paid in cash and having a pocket full of twenty dollar bills brought me such a sense of joy!  I can still remember how it feels today.  I made around $600 for my first rental and although now that may not seem like a lot of money for me it signified, yes I can do this job!

Little did I know then that selling real estate would become a family venture that would bring us all closer together.

Watching Walter's success in real estate sparked something in me. In 2010, I decided to take the leap and get my license. Walter was supportive but gave me space to find my own way - something I really appreciated.

Eleven years later, I can say it was one of the best decisions I've made. Building relationships with my clients and helping them find their perfect homes has become my passion.

​Eventually I moved to the Bronx, and met my fiance Jeffrey.  We have a beautiful daughter Arya together and expecting another one soon!

My entry into real estate wasn't exactly planned. When Walter asked me about my summer plans before college, my answer of "nothing" led to becoming the team's assistant at 17.

I'll admit - at first, I hated it! My first day on the job I was told to scan papers and scanning papers wasn't exactly thrilling.

But once I understood the bigger picture of what we were doing, everything changed. I got my license as soon as I turned 18, and while quitting college was a tough decision, I've never looked back. Providing exceptional service to my clients has become my mission.

Together, we started our journeys at different times - Walter in 2007, Damaris in 2010, and Andy in 2015. While we don't always see eye to eye (what siblings do?), our foundation as family always comes first, and our work strengthens those bonds.

We'd love to hear about the important people in your life. Who makes your life more joyful? Share your story with us!
