About Ann
Ann moved to Manhasset in 1995 and has purchased and renovated five homes in Munsey Park and Flower Hill. She has a sincere passion for all things real estate:  design, renovation, and construction, and her clients will benefit from her experience.  Ann combines an acute business sense with a critical eye for staging and presentation that helps buyers and sellers realize a property's full potential in a dynamic market. She has substantial experience with first-time buyers, international buyers as well as those looking to relocate to the New York area.

Prior to joining Compass, Ann spent nearly 12 years as a top broker, a consistent member of the Gold Circle of Excellence and has been quoted in The Wall Street Journal and The New York Times as an expert on the Long Island market. Her accolades include being recognized as #1 Producer in her office and has been ranked one of Americas Best Real Estate Professionals in The Wall Street Journal Real Trends List over the past several years.

Earlier in her career, Ann spent 15 years helping corporations manage their image with investors and the financial media. She counseled high-profile CEOs on initial public offerings and mergers and acquisitions. Today, she brings this high level of confidentiality, client service and focus to her clients on Long Island.  Ann is graduated from Boston University with honors.

Ann has been very involved in leadership positions in her community, having served as President of the Munsey Park Women's Club, on the board of the Manhasset Community Fund, as a Girl Scout Leader and teacher of religion at the Church of St. Mary. She and her husband and three children are long-time members of Manhasset Bay Yacht Club, where they enjoy time on the waterfront, one of the many reasons they have chosen to live on the North Shore.

★★★★★
"Where do I start? Initially, Ann's professionalism and responsiveness will undoubtedly impress you. Every call, text or email was immediately and thoughtfully answered. But one quickly realizes that this is just the tip of the iceberg. Her knowledge of the market is truly impressive; we know, because Ann helped us navigate a difficult market of low inventory and fluctuating prices. Ann knew the idiosyncrasies of each street and house, and guided us throughout the process - from submission of the bid to the actual closing. Her value assessment is also quite astounding, as she levered her seemingly endless knowledge to accord premium or discount to each. But in retrospect, I think Ann's greatest attribute is that she actually understands what you need - sometimes better than yourself - and guides you towards that goal with patience and professionalism. A cynic might say that she's just doing her job, but a full year after our purchase, she still provides with valuable advice and tips. I used to joke that Ann is the mayor of the town, but after having met our neighbors, it appears that sentiment is widely shared. I recommend her without any reservation, and I'm pretty sure you'll eventually be gushing over her, too." - Carol

"Ann helped us sell our house in Manhasset and find a new one. She is an excellent broker - professional and extremely knowledgeable about Long Island. During our house hunting, Ann helped us in every way possible. I have recommended her to a number of friends and will continue to do so. Ann is the best!" - Becky

★★★★★
"A true professional, Ann is one of a kind - her market knowledge and drive are top notch. Ann worked very closely with me and my husband when we sold our home, we priced it together and Ann delivered 12 offers mostly all of which were over ask within the first week." - Grace Ann

"The Real Estate world would be a better place with more agents like Ann! She is the consummate professional and an outstanding advocate for her clients. She approaches every step of the buying/selling process with clarity, consistency, and patience. I always felt that I had an advantage being represented by Ann. She develops a level of trust that makes you feel confident in every piece of your buying/selling strategy. She always offers her professional recommendations with a high level of sensitivity for the comfort level of her clients. Ann represented my wife and I in both the sale of our first home and the purchase of our current home. We could not be more pleased with her both professionally and personally. There were countless times in various phases of both transactions where I was on the phone with Ann late into the evening as she walked me through a particular piece of the timeline I was unfamiliar with. In a competitive market like Manhasset, there is no agent that can represent your interests better than Ann Hance - no questions asked. Buying or selling a house can be a major headache...Ann makes it an enjoyable and memorable endeavor for you and your family." - Luke

"Ann really is a true professional at what she does, I cannot recommend her highly enough. We have used her for two purchases and one sale to date. Throughout all transactions she has been nothing but amazing. She is extremely professional and knowledgeable, but above all has true integrity. We always felt in such safe hands and her guidance was invaluable to us. She was always on hand to answer questions and would spend time running through every detail to make sure we were making the right decision. We first used Ann when moving to Manhasset, an area we did not know. She introduced us to so many things locally and gave us a true and honest guide of the area, which in turn helped us to make the right purchase for us at the time. We then had no hesitation but to use Ann again when deciding to look for more space and again she was nothing but fantastic. I promise you if you decide to work with Ann you will not be disappointed. She really his one in a million!" - Heidi
