Steven Leslie Newest Homes By Mara Realty Agent

Syosset, NY; February 27, 2019 - Steven Leslie of Woodbury, NY is the latest licensed associate broker to have joined Homes By Mara Realty of Syosset, NY. Leslie comes to Homes By Mara after Mel Patto, Inc. Realtors in Syosset closed down, where he worked as a salesperson for the first 15 years and then as an associate broker for 11 years (a combined 26 years). He says when it came to considering other real estate agency contenders to work with it was Homes By Mara that was the perfect fit for him.

“I had known Homes By Mara President and Owner Mara Navaretta for many years and was very well aware of her high integrity as well as her stellar reputation in our residential real estate market,” Leslie explains. “While working with Mel Patto, Inc. Realtors, I learned the importance of being part of a hands-on agency that was focused on delivering quality, tailored level service and attention to its clients, which is why it was important for me to continue working with an agency who shared this approach. Mara has built Homes By Mara with this same commitment and standard. Its hands-on personalized boutique environment is what made Homes By Mara the obvious agency for me to work with.”

Beyond working over two decades in real estate, Leslie also actively played all over the country as a drummer in different original bands and cover bands for approximately 30 years. While working with those bands he gained early sales experience through his responsibility with booking his own and other bands during the late 1980s.

“In working as a band booker I gained quick insight and perspective on how to work with different customers and meet their unique needs,” Leslie comments. “Many of the bands I would book for would be for weddings, which involved a lot of intricate details and specific accommodations. When working in real estate you must be sensitive to certain particulars and ready to accommodate people’s different needs. My booking experience has provided me with valuable skills that complement my focus in real estate so I can deliver that personalized customer service that is necessary when representing and meeting the unique needs of today’s real estate home buyers and sellers.”

Navaretta is also pleased to have Leslie among her team of agents. “Steven is a veteran in the real estate industry with knowledge about the real estate sector and a great perspective on what today’s home buyers and sellers need along with how to get their needs met,” she explains. “Having someone as experienced as Steven working with us is an asset for our operation and the real estate clients we serve.”
