Lisa Taubes is a native New York City real estate advisor known for sharp instincts, direct guidance, and relentless advocacy. Clients describe her as a rare blend of professionalism, humor, and “tough love” - the kind of partner who tells you the truth, keeps you focused, and gets you across the finish line with confidence.
Before real estate, Lisa built a successful career in fashion, sharpening her eye for detail, value, and presentation. Now in what she calls her “third act,” she brings that same editorial perspective and client-first intensity to helping buyers and sellers navigate NYC’s most nuanced buildings and neighborhoods, from classic co-ops to downtown loft living.
Lisa is based on the Upper East Side and is especially valued for her responsiveness, problem-solving mindset, and ability to simplify overwhelming decisions into clear next steps, so her clients move forward decisively, not endlessly.
