Those who are familiar with real estate transactions, especially those in the lightning-fast paced New York City market, know that they can be derailed quicker than the train you're riding on when you needed to be some place five minutes ago. Steve Hanna keeps that awareness in the forefront of his mind. He has a primary focus for his clients: get things done. Hanna, who brings experience in both real estate and financial services to his business, is a lifelong New Yorker who appreciates the diversity of New York. 'Having firsthand knowledge of the vibes of the different parts of The City,' Hanna said, 'is crucial for guiding clients to the right property.' He added that what is ideal for one client could be totally wrong for another.

Hanna capitalizes on the fast-paced, exciting energy of New York to be the client-focused, results oriented agent he is. His favorite moment as an agent reflects that: 'I remember a situation where a client met a landlord and both had a positive response. We put in the application, and all was going along smoothly until the last minute. The landlord wanted to back out, and my client was panicking because she had to move. I met with the landlord, listened to the concerns, got the situation ironed out, and saved the deal.' Get things done. Some just say the words. If you need someone who actually does it, make sure your next call is made to Steve Hanna
