Description
Realty Collective is a woman-owned, Brooklyn-based real estate solution service, dedicated to demystifying Brooklyn real estate and uplifting our local communities. For over a decade, we’ve prioritized empathy and advocacy over back-door deals and irresponsible development – and doing what we can to give as much back to Brooklyn as we get.When working with our clients, we provide advice, guidance, and transparency on all sides of the real estate transaction. Whether you’re a landlord looking for a long-time tenant, or buying your very first home for your family, we take a hands-on & compassionate approach, providing a library of educational tools open to all. We believe in building meaningful relationships between clients and their communities and sharing all the resources we have (and use!) ourselves.We put our ethos in action in a myriad of ways, like providing our free Buying and Selling in Brooklyn workshops or supporting local non-profits like Cora Dance and RHAP; uplifting local artists in our Compére Collective gallery space, or contributing to the local arts ourselves; or even giving Brooklyn woman-owned businesses a free space to promote their work on our blog.All our agents live in the communities we serve, so we have the scoop on all things local. And, outside of their real estate work, they have their own passions and areas of expertise, but we all live by the same mission: to work – and live – with integrity, honesty, and mindfulness.

Recommendations for brokers with expertise in sunset park
We bought an apartment in a Sunset Park coop in 2019, and this year just bought the unit next to us. We used Victoria Alexander at Realty Collective for both and love her-she really helped us out and was a great advocate for us in some tricky situations that came up (because they always do of course.) We felt that the sellers agent was really phoning it in so we’re very glad to have her on our team. And, we absolutely LOVE sunset park and would be happy to chat about the neighborhood anytime!Realty Collective LLC
We worked with Victoria and Tina when we bought our loft in DUMBO last year. They provided fantastic and invaluable advice which helped us as first-time buyers navigate the whole process as well as recommending the mortgage brokers and lawyers we used. A female led dream team we had hoped for! They worked with us to help negotiate our offer and we’re always available to jump on a call very quickly as situations inevitably arose. They always showed up for us and gave straight, human, genuine and practical opinions and never felt “salesy”Victoria Alexander - Realty Collective
We are repeat customers! I've known Victoria since I was a teenager; we used to go to the same punk/surf rock shows on the Jersey Shore. A long time ago! Well, Victoria grew up—jury's out on if I ever did—and she founded Realty Collective. As far as I can tell, she is deeply passionate about Brooklyn and helping people find and make their communities/homes here. When my wife and I decided to purchase an apartment back in 2019, Victoria and Realty Collective was the only call we made. We benefited immensely from Victoria's candor and guidance—we wouldn't have survived the fraught purchase process without her. We also saw just how much harder she was fighting/working for us than the seller's agent was for them. We live in a co-op and earlier this year we decided to try to purchase the unit next door. Once again, Victoria and RC deftly navigated us through some very tricky waters and helped make our dreams come true. We will very happily keep working with Victoria and recommending her without reservation.Realty Collective
Victoria and her team were so amazing when we purchased our home last year. She really listened to our needs (small budget for NYC and 3 kids so it was definitely a challenge!). We moved from Gowanus to Clinton Hill to a 4-bed, 2-bath condo that suits us so perfectly. At first I just thought realtors were there to help 'find' the place but really the work starts once you find the place. The offering, contract and closing ended up being more complicated than we could have anticipated and she was there in full support at all times throughout the process. It just so happened that she assembled a full female team with the mortgage broker, attorney + her associates. I also think my favorite part was the education offered on her Basecamp that really helps save time getting a quick rundown of each step of the process. It's a wealth of useful knowledge I wasn't expecting to receive. Wholeheartedly recommend their services!Realty Collective LLC
I used Victoria to buy my place in South Slope. She's truly the best. Knowledgable, kind, helpful. I would recommend her to anyone looking to buy or sell.Realty Collective - Victoria Alexander
Buying a home in New York City is TOUGH. When my husband and i started looking, Victoria was such an incredible resource. I had toured an apartment she was showing to rent a few years prior and her energy and demeanor really resonated with me. Come time to buy a place and she was my first email. I found an apartment online that checked all the boxes. It was almost TOO good. I was so positive it would be an insane bidding war and we’d never come out on top. Victoria managed to get us one of the first appointments out of dozens and dozens and immediately threw it into 5th to help us assemble everything we needed to put in an offer. We pinch ourselves every day that we get to live in this amazing apartment. Could not have done it without Victoria. She is the absolute best.
