Nora Ashby, Hudson Valley real estate agent, standing by a tall wooden window

Nora at a client’s home in Woodstock

I grew up in Rosendale, sold my first house in Kingston in 2013 and have spent every year since helping people find the right old house, barn or cabin in the valley.

Before real estate I spent eight years restoring furniture, which is still how I look at a house: what is original, what is worth saving and what a buyer will fall for on the first visit.

Why one agent

    No junior agents, no call centre and no hand-offs. I take on a small number of clients at a time, so the person who prices your home is the one who shows it, negotiates it and walks you to the closing table.

Client words

    We were buying from Brooklyn and could only come up on weekends. Nora filmed every house, told us which to skip, and we closed on the right one in five weeks.

Priya and Tom Ellison, bought in Stone Ridge

    She priced our farmhouse honestly, had it photographed beautifully and we had three offers in the first week. Calm, clear and always one step ahead.

Margaret Hale, sold in Accord

    Nora found us a stone house that never hit the market. She knew the owners, knew the road, and knew it was ours before we did.
