“Why I used to hate Long Island and why I Love it now!”

August 29th, 2008 Netter Real Estate Posted in Uncategorized No Comments »

To All My Fellow "City People"!

I proudly present to you the story of the transformation of one Russian city girl into a true Long Islander.

A little about me first – I moved from Russia to Long Island about 4 years ago. I came here as au-pair and then I met my husband and stayed. Prior to my coming here I only lived in large cities, even when I lived in Germany.

Here is what made me not like Long Island (I am still debating about some of it).

Being used to 24/7 bakeries, liquor and grocery stores with decent meals, bars and anything else you can think of, I soon discovered my talents in cooking to avoid eating fast food and other junk. The best part is that I mastered a few new dishes that I never thought I would cook. Imagine, how lucky my husband is?!!!

Being used to a public transportation system that could get you anywhere you need to go and right on time (talking more about the German system than Russian now) I soon discovered that without your own car you are just lost!!! Taking into consideration I didn’t have enough papers to get a NY state driving license I started walking to work and back. (Some of my neighbors thought I was a crazy lady in a blue jacket – what a nice nickname to have, isn’t it???). The best part is that it puts you in a great mood and keeps you in shape. Other than that – thank god I have a car now!!!

And how can I not talk about taxis??? I slowly graduated into taking taxis – hmmmmmmm … They don’t let you book them in advance (you’d think it’s for their own advantage, but no) and it seems as if they live in their own time system – if they tell you 15 minutes, it could be 2, could be 10, could be 30 – you guess!!! Not to mention sometimes they tell you that they don’t have any – A walking habit helps a lot of this dilemma. The best part is – I got to know a lot of characters, some of who became my customers.

And here are the reasons that beat anything that there is in the city – even shopping (although you do have the upper hand in that, my dear city pals!!! So lucky!!!)
Long Island Beaches

Those of you who haven’t heard about Fire Island (picture above), I am begging you – call me now. It is a paradise within a 20 minute wonderful ride on a ferry. It has everything you ever wanted from the beach and more – cafes and playgrounds, bars and restaurants, rentals, investments, residencies, even schools and camps!!! One weekend there changed my mind about Long Island forever!!!

And when you come home after a wild weekend or a night in the city or a crazy busy day at work, get a chilled beer, glass of wine, apple juice, water or anything else that you prefer to drink, change into your bathing suite and enjoy the time in your hot tub under the stars. 

You can often make a wish – so many of them are falling (how else do you think all of mine have come true?!!)

And the restaurants?!! The fact that word of mouth travels at light speed, you get excellent meals combined with excellent service at low prices. The variety has its’ “Melting Pot” flavor and your wallet is happy.
Robert Moses Bridge

The ride to the Robert Moses beaches is across the bridges(picture above) – the rest of the world just stays behind and nothing exists except paradise and you!!!

Variety in Long Island exceeds anybody’s expectations.

I am a committed Long Islander now with great love for the city. West Islip is only an hour away from Penn Station!!! But the everyday enjoyment with your friends, family, and co-workers if you choose, just can’t beat the suburban charm – you could be part of the paradise.

Oak Neck Lane, West Islip

August 27th, 2008 Netter Real Estate Posted in Uncategorized No Comments »

When I was in school back in the 70s we called Oak Neck Lane in West Islip “The Lane”. We had a lot of friends down there. We, of course, is me and a lot of friends was more like I knew some people who lived down there, but I did spend a lot of time there back in my day, hiking with Mike Tornabene in Gardiners Park or Kayaking in Trues Creek behind Monica Powells house. But it wasn’t until I was a little older that I realized there were some pretty amazing people living on “The Lane”. There was also some pretty amazing characters. Most everyone I knew from ONL knew “Uncle Zack”. He was the guy with the opera pit in his living room. Zack was from Greece and he really was my friend Nicks’ uncle. Zack had an opera house right inside his house and members of the New York City Opera would allegedly come to visit him and sing in his living room for him.

One of my favorite ONL personalities of all time was my friend “Walter”, yes my friend, I really was friends with Walter. Walter’s in-laws owned what we knew as True Harbor, a 12+ Acre waterfront retreat on the East side of Oak Neck lane, at the foot of Trues Creek. I met Walter when we had the listing on True Harbor. It was by far the most expensive (and therefore the most important) listing we had at that time. Well I was fortunate enough to get a binder on Walters property and that’s when I saw how really hard it was to keep a big deal going. We had a contract signed by the buyer 3 different times with 2 different attorneys and still we couldn’t keep Walters family happy. My job was to keep walter happy. Jim Netter would give me $50 and say to go buy Walter some beer and chicken wings. Walter liked hanging out at Frankie BZs’ so I would go down and get hammered with Walter and keep my deal going for at least another day. Well my deal never did close (story for another day) but it took a long time to develop (and then undeveloped). So, Walter and I got to drink a lot of beers and eat a lot of wings together.

Today the face of Oak Neck Lane has changed. There are scores of fabulous new "mansions" and very few original owners. If you are looking to purchase a home on "The Lane" give me a call! I just happen to have a couple of great ones "FOR SALE" and who knows, maybe you’ll meet some interesting people too.

Honorees

KRISTINA and JAMES NETTER

Of Netter Real Estate and Bridgewater Funding 

James and Kristina Netter

James A. Netter established Netter Real Estate over thirty years ago after training and working with his father.  He was born in Brooklyn, moved to Levittown and then West Islip, where he lived and established his business, Netter Real Estate.  Since then Jim has created a team of real estate professionals that together make up a powerful sales force.  His unique management, and sales and training abilities are what separate Jim Netter and his office team from all the rest.
In 2002 after working with a myriad of mortgage brokers and bankers Jim and his wife and partner, Kristina, decided to create their own mortgage company.  They sought to mirror the success, camaraderie and family environment that have made Netter Real Estate what it is today.  Thus Bridgewater Funding was born!
Jim has dedicated his time to make Netter Real Estate and Bridgewater Funding the best that they can be.  He keeps himself and his sales team up-to-date on current practices in their business by ongoing training and informational programs and conferences.  He is licensed to sell real estate in New York and Florida and is licensed to grant mortgages in New York, Florida, Connecticut and Georgia.  He is also committed to helping others.  Currently, he sits on the board of the Family Service League, a not-for-profit organization that helps individuals, families and communities in need.  Netter Real Estate has sponsored a house tour for the past three years to help raise funds for the Family Service League.  He is the past president of the Multiple Listing Service of Long Island, consisting of 28,000 local realtors.  He sits on the board of directors for the Multiple Listing Service of Long Island, The Budget and Finance Committee, MLS Technology and Services, Field Issues Task Force, the Long Island Board of Realtors and the Multiple Listing Service Audit Committee.  He has earned numerous awards for the time he dedicates in helping to make a difference in the real estate industry.  Jim always donates to local charities and schools and is also an active board member of his local communities in Oak Beach, Long Island and Longboat Key, Florida.
You know the saying, "Behind every great man is a great woman."  Kristina Netter has been working alongside Jim for the past eighteen years.  Through those years Netter Real Estate has grown from six to sixty-five salespeople.  Bridgewater Funding, established in 2002, now consists of twelve loan specialists and combined administrative team of ten.  Kristina diligently works to ensure that both companies are operating successfully so that their sales team can focus on sales.  She is a licensed Real Estate Broker and is actively involved in her community.  Kristina is a committee member for the Family Service League House Tour, Volunteers at her son’s school, St. Peter’s by the Sea, and is on the community welfare committee in Oak Beach.  Most importantly, Kristina is dedicated to making a happy home for her family!

Jim, Kristina and Cory reside in Oak Beach, where they enjoy the quiet, laid back lifestyle of sun, sand, water and boating.  It’s not always about business.  Jim’s pride and joy are his four children, family and friends.

The fundraiser will feature a buffet catered by the Irish Coffee Pub, an open bar, entertainment, silent auction, raffles and a $10,000 super cash raffle.

This event will be held on September 7, 2008 from 2 p.m. to 5 p.m.
