Her expertise encompasses the unique geographical aspects of the region, including its various towns and villages. This local insight, combined with her professional network, allows her to coordinate effectively with specialists crucial to real estate transactions, from surveyors and local building department professionals to interior designers.

“I’m incredibly excited to be joining the East Hampton office team,” Jaeger said. “As a local for many years, I have a deep love for the community and am eager to share that with prospective home buyers and sellers. My personal and professional experience with the Hamptons and surrounding areas allows me to assist clients in any area of their home buying experience.”
