Born and raised in the borough of Brooklyn, Rhea Cohen has been selling real estate in the Heights for about as long as she's been living here, and that's over twenty years. A trained social worker with a LMSW after her name. Rhea has traveled the typically tortured trail of many a real estate professional including (in her case) stints on the marketing staff of the Brooklyn Heights Press (with Dozier Hasty), a variety of Social Work positions at Family Services and the Jewish Board, and even a few (condensed) years at Readers Digest. Beyond all this, Rhea is an accomplished film maker, having edited, produced and distributed the documentary “Tuesday Night”, a memorial to her son Adam, and an inspiration to all of those with loved ones fighting their own battles against AIDS. When she's not working (is she ever not working?) you can find her volunteering at the Women's Exchange over on Pierrepont, and if she's not there, she's off knitting somebody something somewhere (and if she doesn't slow down soon there won't be a sheep left in the highlands). Despite these varied interests, she has over one hundred and twelve million dollars in sales to her credit, often selling the same property more than once, with buyers retuning to her years later as sellers (and friends). In 2002, Rhea had the distinction of selling the highest priced townhouse in Brooklyn Heights. The consensus seems to be that Rhea's greatest talent is her ability to get into your head, recognize your real estate needs, and most of all to understand just how scary this entire process can be. For a gentler real estate experience give her a call.
