Vivian Ducat, born and bred on the Upper West Side of Manhattan, has a deep curiosity of what lies within the walls of her city. Vivian's enthusiasm for the smallest details of building layout, hallway floor tiles, views, and history combine to make her a knowledgeable salesperson on the properties she sells. Vivian went so far as to write a master’s thesis about the cutting up of Manhattan apartments during the 1930s.

Vivian loves real estate not only because it is about spaces but because it is also about people. She loves to chat with clients and their agents and is able to develop a strong rapport that can support any deal. As one of the all-time great networkers in New York, Vivian loves to discover her six degrees of separation with the people she meets through real estate.

A graduate of Harvard University with a Master's from Columbia University in real estate development, Vivian is also a veteran documentary filmmaker with 30 years of television, museum, and feature documentary films to show for it. She was trained as a film director by the BBC in London and for a long time traveled the world for her projects. She remains a member of the Directors Guild and Writers Guild.Vivian bought her first co-op on Columbus Avenue at the age of 25 and has been a co-op shareholder ever since. She has served on the board of two co-ops, including a nearly four-year term as board president in a co-op which was undergoing a major and successful transformation. She has spent 15 years on the Land Use Committee of Community Board 12 Manhattan, which has given her a great high-level perspective on development. Vivian is also an ardent preservationist and her work has been acknowledged by New York's preservationist organizations.

Drawing on her own family's experience with disability, Vivian has worked on several deals for people with special needs and with the agencies that represent them. If you would like to work with someone you can really talk to who has deep experience in sales, renting, and New York City real estate, call or email Vivian Ducat. You will not be disappointed.
