Arabella Greene Buckworth has enjoyed over thirty years' experience as a respected and highly successful broker in luxury sales in Manhattan. In 1986 she founded and managed a residential division representing multinational corporations and investment properties in a respected boutique firm. In 1997 she joined Brown Harris Stevens, established in 1873, New York City’s oldest and most prestigious residential real estate firm.
A native New Yorker, Arabella is intimately familiar with the nuances and evolving dynamics of the city and its neighborhoods. Marketing and selling luxury real estate, usually through referrals and repeat business, she has consistently set record prices. Clients appreciate her negotiating talents, thorough knowledge of the real estate market and equanimity under pressure.
She had the distinction of representing the buyer in The Real Estate Board of New York’s “Deal of the Year Award” for the sale of a Penthouse on Central Park West, cited at the time by The Financial Observer as “the most expensive single-occupancy apartment purchase in the history of the Upper West Side.” In 2009, on Manhattan’s Upper East Side, she negotiated the purchase of the largest townhouse sale in New York City discretely representing the purchaser, an international icon. Whether negotiating on behalf of celebrities, foreigners or first time buyers, Arabella is respected for her sensitivity, tenacity and discretion.
Widely travelled and fluent in three languages, Arabella was educated at the United Nations International School and Mills College, where she earned a degree in Literature and Art. She continues to be an avid reader and a patron of all the arts, in particular Modern Art, Jazz and Classical music. Other abiding passions are chess tournaments and ski holidays with her husband and family.
Madame Greene est une spécialiste des logements de luxe d'avant-guerre en coopérative ou en copropriété situés dans le quartier ouest du haut de Manhattan. Elle s'est occupée d'immobilier depuis 1986 lorsqu'on lui a demandé de créer un service chargé des propriétés résidentielles pour Jack J. Lesko Inc., une firme spécialisée dans les baux commerciaux ayant une clientèle de sociétés multinationales japonaises.
Madame Greene a alors travaillé pour l'organisation Lesko durant les six années qui suivirent en tant que directrice des ventes de propriétés résidentielles, se bâtissant une réputation de chef de file en matière de ventes de copropriétés de luxe destinées à des sociétés clientes. Pour autant, en 1991, explique-t-elle, « J'ai ressenti le besoin de dépasser ce marché spécialisé et de commencer à travailler pour des personnes en instance d'achat. » Elle quitte alors Lesko pour entrer chez The Halstead Property Company se concentrant sur le quartier ouest du haut de Manhattan qui était en pleine expansion.
Lorsque la coopérative du N°50 de la 67 ème rue ouest, qui datait de 1915, décida de vendre ses actions invendues, Madame Greene fut engagée par le gérant en tant qu'agent exclusif. Ce travail devint rapidement une affaire de cœur. «J'étais tombée amoureuse de la poésie et de l'origine de l'architecture de cette rue, de l'histoire et du panache propre à ses habitants passés et présents ; j'ai moi-même déménagé pour habiter cette rue et ai pris la décision de me concentrer sur la vente de ce qui me passionnait le plus.»
Depuis, elle a étendu la portée de ses activités bien au-delà de la zone de Lincoln Square et couvre actuellement tout le quartier ouest du haut de Manhattan, ainsi que le quartier est. Depuis septembre 1997, elle est chez Brown Harris Stevens, travaillant dans ses bureaux du quartier ouest.
Après avoir obtenu son diplôme de Mills College avec une spécialisation en art et en littérature, Madame Greene et son mari ont déménagé pour l'Europe – habitant principalement à Madrid et sur l'île d'Ibiza, dans la Méditerranée, qui était à cette époque une mecque pour les artistes. New-yorkaise de souche, elle parle couramment français et espagnol et habite actuellement dans le quartier ouest du haut de Manhattan.
Arabella, especialista en cooperativas y condominios de lujo anteriores a la guerra ubicados en el Upper West Side (noroeste), ha participado activamente en bienes raíces desde 1986 cuando se le pidió crear una división residencial para Jack J. Lesko Inc., una firma de arrendamiento comercial que atiende a corporaciones japonesas multinacionales.
Como Directora de Ventas Residenciales, Arabella permaneció con la organización Lesko durante los seis años siguientes, cimentando su renombre como líder de ventas de condominios de lujo para clientes corporativos. Pero en 1991, dice ella, "Sentí la necesidad de moverme fuera de este mercado especializado y empezar a trabajar para compradores individuales". A partir de ese momento dejó Lesko para unirse a The Halstead Property Company, enfocándose en el floreciente Upper West Side (noroeste).
Cuando la propiedad ubicada en 50 West 67th, una cooperativa de 1915, decidió vender las acciones que aún no había vendido, el patrocinador contrató a Arabella para que actuara como su agente exclusivo. Rápidamente se convirtió en una labor de amor. "Me enamoré del romance y la procedencia de la arquitectura de esta calle, de la historia y el estilo de sus habitantes pasados y actuales; me mudé a esa calle y decidí concentrarme en vender lo que se convirtió en mi pasión."
Desde entonces ha expandido su rango de actividades más allá del área de Lincoln Square y ahora cubre todo el Upper West Side (noroeste) así como el Upper East Side (noreste). Desde septiembre de 1997 se incorporó a Brown Harris Stevens y trabaja desde sus oficinas en el Upper West Side (noroeste).
Después de graduarse de la universidad Mills con especialidades en arte y literatura, Arabella se mudó con su esposo a Europa y vivió principalmente en Madrid y la isla mediterránea de Ibiza, en ese entonces, una meca para artistas. Nacida en Nueva York, habla francés y español con fluidez, y reside actualmente en el Upper West Side (noroeste).
