Broker Showcase – Pat Petrillo

HRES had the pleasure recently of interviewing Pat Petrillo of Sotheby’s International Realty, Southampton. One of the most satisfying parts of her work is the personal relationships that develop with both buyers and sellers.

HRES: Can you tell us about one of your more notable listings?
PP: I have listed an oceanfront Norman Jaffe house originally built in 1979. It is in a great location, beautifully built and trimmed with rich woods, and after all these years still a very smart and stylish contemporary beach home.

HRES: What is the most personally satisfying part of your work?
PP: I love the personal relationships that develop with both my buyers and sellers. Over time, I find I become personally invested in those professional relationships. It’s a big deal for anyone to buy or sell a house and I get that. When we have a sale, it’s especially rewarding for me to see buyers and sellers that I have come to care about happy.

HRES: What is the most challenging aspect of being a real estate broker in today’s market?
PP: Without a doubt, Managing seller’s and buyer’s expectations.

HRES: What do you like to do in the Hamptons…after selling real estate of course?
PP: In my very spare time, I like to play golf. I’m an avid golfer and a member of Southampton Golf Club. Those I play with don’t care about real estate or market trends so it’s a real break when I can get out there.

HRES: What are the advantages working for a firm like Sotheby’s International Realty?
PP: Sotheby’s International Realty has a great brand name and is known globally with offices worldwide. Because of its name recognition I think most sellers and buyers will always check in with us by visiting one of our many offices or online.
