Episode 84: Elizabeth Ann Stribling-Kivlan, On Stribling, Representing The Plaza, Acquired by Compass, & the State of the Brokerage Industry

I am pleased to have NYC real estate legend Elizabeth Ann Stribling Kivlan AKA EA Stribling on the the pod.  EA is a born & raised, through & though 5th generation New Yorker.  She attended the Chapin school in the UES, then as most NY’ers do, left the city to attend school at Holy Cross, then to SF to pursue a career outside of real estate and not live in NYC.  Her first entry into real estate was with a top agent Pacific Union in SF where she cut her teeth learning the ins and outs of our business.  But as many New Yorkers do, she found that there is no better place than NYC so upon her return back intoNYC, EA joined her family business Stribling & Associates where she helped build the brokerage with her family over the course of 24 years.  About 4 years ago, compass acquired Stribling associates , then a firm that has closed $1.62B just in sell side deals with an agent count of around 270 agents and a robust new development division.  

 

We discuss all things NYC real estate, the state of the brokerage industry now, the past, and the future.
