Joan Bischoff van Heemskerck’s Summary

Personal and Practical, Entrepreneurial and Innovational

With experience in The Netherlands, France, South America, and the US, an Entrepreneur since 1985, Joan specializes in Real Estate, RE consulting, investment & management, also as a Certified Buyer Representative.

"Buyer representation" is a fast growing field in RE in New York, catering to real estate buyers and investors. Most buyers of real estate in New York are not represented by a professional in the process of buying RE, while dealing with savvy sellers' agents, who work solely for the sellers interest.

Especially buyers who are not familiar with the area they are moving into need a buyer's or renter's agent! If you are coming to New York, or move into the Greater New York Area, call me and we can help you find what you are looking for and look out for YOUR interests as a buyer or renter. And if we can't, we can refer you to one of our trusted colleagues who certainly can!

Buyers Connections Realty would like to represent you as buyers of Real Estate in New York; especially also in the beautiful resort area / NY wine country of the North Fork of Long Island to address this fast growing need.

Joan Bischoff van Heemskerck’s Specialties:

NY Real Estate Consultant, Representation of buyers and sellers of Real Estate in New York and NY wine country in the North Fork of Long Island, negotiations, and property management.
