Sheila was born and raised in New York City and is a longtime Upper East Side homeowner.

She genuinely understands the delicate nature of a real estate purchase or sale and relates to the uniqueness of the experience for each individual. Her sensitivity to people’s needs, patience, endurance, and commitment to others, constantly win her enthusiastic referrals and repeat business.

Rounding out Sheila’s capabilities is a keen aesthetic eye for evaluating a home and preparing it for sale. Having studied fine art/education in both New York and Mexico, earning her master’s degree and subsequently teaching art to children, fueled a creative background that has greatly benefited her real estate clientele. Additionally, her years working for a major financial company lend to her talents for pricing and negotiating.

Whether in person or on the phone, Sheila makes everyone feel comfortable and sure that they’re in good hands. Besides her NYC-based clientele, she’s served many international customers and once handled an entire deal via phone, fax, and email for an American ambassador in Africa who found her on the internet!

Below are a few testimonials from her clients:

“The day after I closed on my first apartment and became a homeowner, I asked my girlfriend if I was Sheila Vogel’s only client. The prior day Sheila had attended my closing, stopped by my old apartment to drop off a check, and called me the following day to check in to see how my move went and if there was anything else I needed. That’s a mere 24 hour snapshot of my months of interaction with Sheila. It turns out that I am not Sheila’s only client, but that’s certainly what it felt like to be represented by Sheila. Her personal level of attention is like none other I’ve seen, regardless of industry.” - B.D.

“We have always found Sheila to be very professional, courteous, and sensitive to our needs. We have felt very good about her as a representative of our family. During the negotiation process for our current home, she gave us very good advice during what evolved to be a bit of a bidding war, and we appreciated that very much. Her many years of experience and the value that it brings were evident throughout our experience with her.” - M.G.S.

"I cannot speak highly enough of Sheila Vogel and Rory Clark, who helped me sell my apartment. From the moment I decided to sell, they were a well-coordinated team that never missed a beat. Their commitment to understanding the market, their tireless work ethic, and their exceptional communication skills set them apart. They guided me through the complexities of the NYC real estate market with patience and professionalism, ensuring I was always well-informed and comfortable with each step. Their strategic approach, combined with an extensive network and knowledge of the city, ultimately led to a successful sale. I couldn't have asked for a better team of real estate brokers. Their dedication, expertise, and sheer hard work transformed what could have been a stressful experience into a smooth and profitable transaction. If you're looking for a team that truly cares about your real estate needs, I wholeheartedly recommend these professionals!" -- A.A.

“Sheila has great tact in a field that often lacks the quality. She has a way of making things happen without being pushy. This quality is very effective in regards to either a sale or a purchase by not driving away buyers/driving buyer demand and achieving a higher sale price or in our case positioning our bid to be the winner. Sheila is very organized and has an excellent grasp of the ins and outs of residential property transactions here in New York. I would strongly recommend Sheila as a broker.” - P.H.

“I would like to share with you the level of experience and professionalism that Sheila Vogel brought to us while developing the strategy on the sale of our apartment on Park Avenue. In her initial pricing analysis, Sheila proved to be extremely accurate on the value of our apartment, with the selling price being within $10,000 of her estimate. Sheila was tireless with Open Houses and with her availability to us and potential buyers. In addition, Sheila is quick with communication and keeps everyone informed on the continual status changes that occur during the selling process. Sheila’s knowledge of the real estate market is up to the minute regarding pricing and inventory, as well as her familiarity of many, many buildings within the city. I highly recommend using Sheila as your agent for she really cares and has an amazing work ethic.” - J. & R. M.

“Sheila certainly had her hands full with our sale: a tired apartment on East End Avenue owned for over 20 years without renovation and the uncertain and challenging market of winter/spring 2021. Sheila seemed energized by the challenge. Most importantly, she knows her market intimately. Her skill in pricing, her sage advice regarding all aspects of marketing, her savvy and cost-effective approach to readying the apartment for market, and her patience in guiding us through the final negotiations with several potential buyers were spot-on perfect. Sheila is also responsive and available, and has excellent communication skills. She is helpful, organized, and generous with her time, taking charge of whatever was needed (including guiding the buyers through the board approval process) on our behalf for weeks on end. Finally, Sheila is also simply a lovely person, kind and thoughtful. She is a pleasure to deal with and I would recommend her without reservation to anyone in the area.” - K.M.
