🔥 3 New Homes on the Market This Week
Andrew’s Articles
A few fun things that caught my attention this week:
⛴️ Pete Davidson & Colin Jost are hosting a free comedy show aboard the Staten Island Ferry (which they bought when it was decommissioned 😂). Here’s how to get free tix!
🍈 Anotha year, anotha US Open, anotha half a million honey deuces. (I love watching how they’re hand-scooped!) Who went/is going this year??
🍣 Call me basic, but I had to go to Chef Nobu’s OG restaurant in LA last week, Matsuhisa. Michael and I thought it was great—nothing groundbreaking, but can you ever go wrong with sushi? I vote no.
🚚 These moving tips are actually useful. I’ll also add: get cookies for your doorman and super and hand them out on your move day. Having them on your side early is always so helpful!
Your feedback means the world to me! If you enjoyed working with me, I’d greatly appreciate it if you’d write me a review.
Hot Homes: From LA with Love 💗
Last week I was in LA, trading Brooklyn brownstones for Bel Air mansions. I toured some beautiful homes (yes, that is a bowling alley INSIDE the home!), checked in on my incredible referral partners, and enjoyed some beach time with Michael.
Huge thank you to my fellow agents Andrew, Gloria, and Rebecca, who showed me amazing homes and shed light on the California market. The sentiment was pretty cohesive: it’s hard out there.
Between government restrictions and mansion taxes, LA agents are working overtime just to keep deals moving. There are a lot of parallels with NYC, including the pied-à-terre tax and the FARE Act.
The common thread from coast to coast: inventory is a struggle. And more and more, agents are having to source inventory ourselves by seeking out and incentivizing sellers who haven’t yet raised their hand.
The buyers who succeed now aren’t waiting for listings to hit the MLS—they’re working with an agent like me who’s out there making it happen.

Ask the (Harry Styles) Expert 🎵
Personally, I’m a Beyoncé fan myself, but I do love Harry! We certainly have a resale ticketing issue with concerts like this and events like the US Open constantly being sold out and selling for so much higher.
Nonetheless, I found this hilarious article with all the Harry Styles-themed things to do. Here are some highlights:
Order the “watermelon sugar” cocktail from The Dynamo Room (hopefully it sounds sweeter than it tastes 😂)
Attend a Harry Styles-themed drag show hosted by Maxxx Pleasure at Red Eye
Themed cupcakes from Baked by Melissa
Send me photos if you end up doing any of these things!

Listing I’m Lovin’ 🆕
Hello, September. We’re expecting a lot of new homes hitting the market this month. Here are 3 to keep your eye on this week. The early bird gets the worm!
3 bed, 2 bath | $635,000 | Springfield Gardens | Andrew Pritchard
I listed this home one week ago and have already received tons of interest! It’s a red brick beauty with refinished hardwood floors, a garden-level rec room that flows straight out to the yard, and an attached garage!! Reply if you’re interested or know someone who might be, as I don’t expect this one to last long.
2 bed, 1 bath | $475,000 | Crown Heights | Lisa Sulfaro
Just listed on Tuesday, this massive, sun-drenched two-bed overlooks St. John Park and comes with a pass-through kitchen built for entertaining, in-unit laundry, and gated parking in the back! The down payment is only $25K, people!!!
2 Bed, 3 bath | $1,995,000 | Williamsburg | Todd Lewin
Bridge views, river views, and 12-foot ceilings walk into a loft. This isn’t the start of a joke; it’s 6D at 338 Berry 😉😂. This unit is the largest two-bed in the building and boasts a gorgeous chef’s kitchen with a 10-foot island.
To all my Buyers, Sellers, or Renters looking to make moves, let’s make it happen!
I’ll be back in two weeks.
P.S. The trivia answer is C) Pocket listing! (Although “Coming Soon” is a term used a lot too!)
