Celebrating Our KW Family: Inside the 2025 Keller Williams Realty Landmark Holiday Party

with the family

The 2025 Keller Williams Realty Landmark Holiday Party was more than a celebration — it was a powerful reminder of who we are, what we stand for, and why our community continues to grow year after year. Agents from Keller Williams Realty Landmark 1 and Keller Williams Realty Landmark 2 came together for an evening filled with gratitude, connection, culture, and joy.


Our holiday party has always been one of the most anticipated gatherings of the year, but this one felt especially meaningful. It wasn’t just about marking the end of another successful year — it was about honoring the people who make Keller Williams Landmark the exceptional community it is.

A Night Filled With Connection and Celebration


Throughout the night, agents from both Landmark offices strengthened relationships, shared wins, reflected on achievements, and celebrated milestones of 2025. These moments remind us that real estate isn’t just a business — it's a community built on trust, teamwork, and shared purpose.


From laughter to heartfelt conversations, the room was full of the spirit that defines the KW culture. This is what sets Keller Williams apart: a focus on people, growth, and collaboration above all else.

If you’re a homeowner in Queens, Brooklyn, Nassau County, or surrounding NYC areas , you’re probably asking one of two questions: Is now the right time to sell? If I list, will my home actually move? The real answer isn’t emotional. It’s strategic. And 2026 is already giving us clear signals. The Market Is Moving — But Strategy Matters More Than Ever So far this year, our office has: Secured $65.3M in listings taken Written $69.8M in contracts Closed $82.5M in sales Sold 92 units year-to-date That tells us something important: ✔ Homes are being listed ✔ Buyers are writing contracts ✔ Deals are closing But here’s the truth most homeowners don’t hear: The homes that are winning are positioned correctly from day one. Overpricing, weak presentation, or poor negotiation strategy will cost you time and money in today’s environment. What Sellers in Queens Need to Know In neighborhoods across Queens — from Bayside and Flushing to Forest Hills and Whitestone — buyers are educated. They are comparing closed sales. They are analyzing days on market. They know when something is overpriced. If your pricing is even 5% off in today’s market, you lose momentum. And once momentum is gone, you don’t get it back easily. What’s Happening in Brooklyn Right Now Brooklyn sellers are facing a more competitive landscape, especially in: Brownstone markets Condo resales Co-op inventory Buyers are cautious. They negotiate. They expect value. That doesn’t mean homes aren’t selling. It means they’re selling when: The pricing strategy is sharp The marketing is aggressive The negotiation is strong Nassau County & Long Island Sellers: Timing Is Strategic On Long Island, inventory levels and buyer demand are hyper-local. In certain Nassau County pockets, well-priced homes are still moving quickly. But the sellers who assume “it’ll sell because inventory is low” are learning hard lessons. Presentation and negotiation now matter more than ever. Why Office-Level Production Matters to You as a Seller When a Market Center is consistently taking listings, writing contracts, and closing transactions at scale, that translates into: Real-time pricing data Active buyer pipelines Negotiation leverage Deep local market awareness You’re not hiring an agent guessing what the market is doing. You’re hiring someone operating inside it every single week. That difference impacts your final sale price. 3 Powerful Next Steps for Homeowners If you’re even thinking about selling in 2026, do not guess. 🔴 #1 – Get a Strategic Home Value Review Request a detailed, data-backed home value analysis specific to your neighborhood. This is not a Zestimate. This is market positioning. 👉 Request Your Strategic Home Value Review Today 🔴 #2 – Book a Seller Strategy Call Before you list, talk through: Timing Pricing strategy Expected net proceeds Market positioning Even if you’re 3–6 months out, clarity now prevents mistakes later. 👉 We Will Match You With The Perfect Agent For A Strategy Call Final Thought: Don’t Let the Market Decide for You The biggest mistake homeowners are making right now isn’t selling. It’s guessing. The right decision depends on: Your equity position Your timeline Your financial goals Local demand in your exact neighborhood If you’re in Queens, Brooklyn, Nassau County, or surrounding NYC areas, now is the time to get clarity — not headlines. Because in 2026, strategy wins. And sellers who prepare properly are still achieving strong results.  Contact us today!

After a historic 2025—highlighted by $1.2 Billion+ in Contracts Written—we didn’t slow down. We accelerated. As we move through 2026, KW Landmark I & II have already demonstrated that last year wasn’t luck. It was structure. It was leadership. It was culture. And most importantly—it was repeatable. 2026 Year-to-Date Performance Here’s where we stand so far this year: $82.5 Million in Closed Sales Volume 92 Closed Units $65.3 Million in Listings Taken 77 Listings Secured $69.8 Million in Contracts Written 90 Units Under Contract Those numbers represent momentum. And momentum in real estate matters. When listings are taken consistently and contracts are being written at scale, it signals something powerful: the office isn’t reacting to the market — it’s operating confidently within it. What These Numbers Really Mean Volume is not just a vanity metric. It tells a deeper story about systems, skill, and client trust. 1. Listings Are Being Won $65.3M in listings taken year-to-date means our agents are earning the trust of homeowners. In today’s environment, listings are not handed out—they are competed for. Securing them requires pricing precision, presentation strategy, and market knowledge. 2. Contracts Are Converting With $69.8M in contracts written and 90 units under agreement, our agents are not just listing homes—they’re moving them. That reflects negotiation strength and buyer demand alignment. 3. Closings Are Being Delivered $82.5M closed and 92 units sold means transactions are making it to the finish line. In complex NYC and Long Island markets, that’s not automatic. It requires proactive communication, problem-solving, and experience. Why This Matters for Agents At KW Landmark, performance like this confirms what we already know: Our agents are trained for skill, not shortcuts. We prioritize our clients and long-term pipeline building. We operate from systems that create consistency. Collaboration drives production. A strong Market Center creates leverage. It creates referral flow. It creates accountability. It creates opportunity. Agents who plug into an environment producing at this level are not guessing—they are building. And that is exactly what we are committed to at Keller Williams Realty Landmark: becoming the destination for agents who want to grow intelligently and sustainably. What This Translates Into for Clients For home buyers and sellers across Queens, Brooklyn, Long Island, and surrounding NYC areas, these numbers mean something very practical: If You’re Selling: You’re working with agents who know how to win listings and price strategically. Your property is represented by professionals active in the current market—not relying on last year’s playbook. You benefit from collective experience across dozens of active transactions. If You’re Buying: You’re guided by agents who are negotiating contracts weekly. You gain access to professionals deeply connected within the local market. You work with a team that understands inventory shifts and buyer competition in real time. Momentum at the office level creates confidence at the client level. The Bigger Picture 2026 isn’t about chasing last year’s numbers. It’s about proving that KW Landmark’s success is systematic. Predictable. Sustainable. When a Market Center can follow up a billion-dollar year with strong, early momentum, it sends a clear message: This is not a peak. This is a pattern. If you’re an agent looking for a high-performance environment—or a buyer or seller seeking proven guidance—KW Landmark continues to lead with clarity, consistency, and results.
