About Shelley Kaminer

New York City has been my home for many years. I love selling, buying, and renting apartments to clients throughout Manhattan. Being so familiar with the diverse neighborhoods, buildings, and nuances of the city, I can guide my clients more closely to find exactly what they want.

 

Before entering the world of real estate, I spent my career in the contemporary art market, advising and purchasing artworks for an international clientele. Some of my clients bought art for their homes, while others bought for their offices and building lobbies. Having a discerning eye for artists whose works are greatly appreciated in value ensured repeat buyers. Extensive knowledge of pricing across the industry was essential in negotiating the best prices for my clients.

 

The art world is closely aligned with style, design, and new building development. It was my exposure to the latter that sparked a passion for real estate, inevitably leading me to become a sales agent. I have effortlessly transferred this skill set which includes meticulous research, excellent relationships with clients, and disciplined follow-through. My keen eye for style and design is a valuable feature that I can offer my client’s home-buying experience. 

 

I was born and raised in South Africa moving to New York City after completing my undergraduate degree in Business Management from Boston University.

 

I have had a life-long passion for dogs and support many animal rescues and shelters. I love traveling, movies, and theatre and I am an avid reader. Most of all, I love spending time with my friends and my beloved toy poodle, Berti.
