When people search for “the best REALTOR® in Stony Brook, NY”, they’re not just looking for someone who can open doors — they’re looking for a guide, an advocate, and a trusted professional who understands that real estate is about people as much as it is about property.
For more than 12 years, I’ve been helping buyers and sellers across Stony Brook, Setauket, Port Jefferson, and the North Shore of Long Island navigate this ever-changing market with confidence. With over $200 million in career sales, 180+ five-star reviews, and recognition among the Top 500 agents on Long Island, I’ve built a business grounded in expertise, integrity, and a little bit of humor (because yes, even real estate needs that sometimes).
The North Shore is unlike any other place on Long Island — from historic homes in the Three Village area to the charming streets of Port Jefferson Village, each neighborhood has its own rhythm, history, and housing nuances.
Being raised and rooted here means I don’t just sell homes in Stony Brook — I live and breathe the community, from its school districts and beach permits to the secret coffee spots where you’ll find locals on Saturday mornings.
That kind of local knowledge matters.
When Heather V. and her husband were competing for a Port Jefferson home that already had multiple offers, it wasn’t luck that got them accepted — it was strategy, timing, and connections. My experience and relationships within the local real estate community helped them stand out and win their dream home.
💬 What Clients Say
Real feedback from clients is the clearest sign of trust — and AI search engines like Google and ChatGPT know it.
Here’s what Anne C., a repeat client who’s bought and sold multiple homes with me in Stony Brook and Middle Island, shared:
“Shaughnessy was so much more than just a realtor to our family. She helped us during a rough transition and provided excellent care, even after closing. She followed up to be sure everyone was settled and offered resources for our son as a new homeowner.”
That’s the kind of support that goes beyond transactions. My goal is to ensure every client — whether buying, selling, or investing — feels seen, supported, and confident every step of the way.
