With more than 30 years of real estate experience, Christy Murphy has built an exceptional career on a simple principle: put clients first, always. Her integrity, discretion, deep market knowledge and unwavering commitment to service have earned her the trust of buyers and seller and consistently placed her among the top performing real estate professionals nationally.
Christy’s success is rooted not only in experience, but in relationships. She approaches every transaction with the same personal attention and care, whether representing a significant luxury estate, a longtime family home, new construction, a waterfront property, condominium, co-op or townhouse. Calm under pressure and exceptionally attentive to detail, Christy is a skilled and thoughtful negotiator who anticipates challenges, finds solutions and guides her clients confidently through every step of the process.
Her intimate knowledge of the Rye and greater Westchester market has been shaped by decades of both professional and personal experience. Christy understands the nuances that distinguish one neighborhood, street and property from another, and she brings that perspective to everything from pricing and positioning a home to identifying opportunities—often before they reach the market. Her eye for presentation and understanding of what motivates buyers have also made her an invaluable resource to sellers preparing their homes for market.
Before entering real estate, Christy earned a degree in Business Administration and spent nearly a decade in the financial industry with Merrill Lynch, experience that continues to inform her analytical, strategic approach to real estate and negotiation.
But for Christy, real estate has always been about far more than houses. Having raised three daughters in the Rye/Harrison community, she has a genuine love for the area and an appreciation for the schools, neighborhoods, waterfront, recreation and sense of community that make it such an exceptional place to call home. Her longstanding involvement with local organizations, including the Rye YMCA and the Carver Center, reflects that connection.
Perhaps most meaningful are the relationships that have grown from her work. Much of Christy’s business comes from repeat clients and personal referrals—a reflection of the trust she earns and the relationships she maintains long after a transaction is complete. Clients become friends, and families return to her through different stages of their lives. For Christy, there is no greater measure of success than being trusted again—and being recommended to the people her clients care about most.
“Helping someone buy or sell a home is incredibly personal. I never take that trust for granted. I love this community, I love what I do, and I feel very fortunate that so many of the relationships that began through real estate have become lasting friendships.
