Why Buyers and Sellers Look at New Rochelle
New Rochelle is on Long Island Sound in southern Westchester County. It combines a waterfront, a downtown that has added many new apartment buildings in recent years, and long-established residential sections to the north.
Housing ranges from prewar co-ops and new downtown condos to single-family homes of every size, including waterfront properties and large homes in the north end.
For sellers, that range means pricing takes local knowledge. I have worked in this market for more than 26 years, and I price every New Rochelle home against the sales closest to it.

New Rochelle Real Estate Questions

How long is the train ride from New Rochelle to Grand Central?

Can I buy a waterfront home in New Rochelle?
Yes. There are homes and condos on and near Long Island Sound. Before you make an offer, I help you check the flood zone and get a flood insurance quote, so you know the full cost of owning the home.
Should I buy a co-op or a condo in New Rochelle?
Co-ops usually cost less to buy but require board approval and have rules on financing and subletting. Condos cost more but give you more flexibility. I review the building’s financials and rules with you before you make an offer.
Do I need an attorney to buy or sell a home in New Rochelle?
In this part of New York, buyers and sellers each normally hire a real estate attorney to handle the contract and the closing. I can refer you to attorneys who work in New Rochelle regularly.
Where can I find information about New Rochelle schools?
The New York State Education Department publishes report cards for every public school, and the City School District of New Rochelle posts enrollment information on its website. I encourage every buyer to review those sources directly.
