Zoe Tischbein

Born and raised in Ohio, Zoe developed a passion for real estate at a very young age when her family designed and built their childhood home. She moved to NYC directly out of college and pursued a successful career in new construction sales for Halstead Property Development Marketing. She was hired at a young age to be the “closer” of various Toll Brothers projects and took part in the re-emergence of Williamsburg. She also sold homes for Steiner NYC, BFC Partners and 5th Square Partners.

Zoe’s attention to detail and customer-centric relationship building acumen is second to none. She will significantly impact the depth and dynamics of our relentless focus on being the top real estate team in Fort Lauderdale, offering the highest level of concierge real estate services. – GILLES RAIS

As a seasoned real estate professional, Zoe understands that buying or selling a home is more than just a transaction: it’s a life-changing experience. That’s why she is dedicated to providing exceptional, personalized service for all of her clients. She takes great pride in the relationships she builds and always works relentlessly on the client’s behalf to help them achieve their real estate goals. Zoe’s philosophy is simple: Clients come first.

She pledges to be in constant communication with her clients, keeping them fully informed throughout the entire buying or selling process. Zoe believes that if you’re not left with an amazing experience, she hasn’t done her job. She doesn’t measure success through achievements or awards but through the satisfaction of her clients.

One of her favorite quotes is: “People will forget what you said, people will forget what you did, but people will never forget how you made them feel.” – Maya Angelou
