About the Author

One of Manhattan’s top real estate agents, VICKEY BARRON is known for her unflappable demeanor, commitment to service, and for being just a little “different.” Different enough that she talked her way into her first “real job” at age eighteen by asking, “Will I have fun?” Different enough that she consistently broke sales records by 200 percent, contributing to the success of FHP, a company that ultimately sold for $2 billion in 1996. And different enough to move to New York City, and launch her career in real estate without any connections or contacts. Vickey has been featured on HGTV’s Selling New York and in publications including The Wall Street Journal, The Real Deal, and The New York Times and has won numerous achievement awards, including the REBNY's Eileen Spinola Award for distinguished service.
