Anna Lascar

LANGUAGES SPOKEN:  French

Anna was born and raised in New York. Before joining Halstead, she spent much of the last 25 years living in Paris, France, and working as a lawyer between Europe and New York for large international law firms. She is fluent in French.

In addition to her legal career, Anna formerly worked in Manhattan for one of the leading New York residential real estate development companies, as well a boutique luxury real estate firm, specializing in Manhattan residential sales.

Since joining Halstead, Anna has specialized in finding clients their ideal home in the price range they can afford. As part of her international corporate law practice, Anna has been involved in many real estate transactions, and she possesses strong business insights into the intricacies of buying and selling a home. Her negotiating skills, business background, and keen interpersonal skills, based on years of experience representing international clients, transfer well to her role as a broker and provide an added plus for her clients in the current challenging economy and real estate market.

Anna brings a combination of personal concern for her clients needs in finding their ideal home in New York and knowledge of the market and business conditions to optimize the purchase and sale process. In particular, she understands the special interests of those who are new to the New York market seeking to make an investment and acquire a home there.

Anna thrives on the all that New York has to offer (although she has kept a pied-a-terre in Paris), and loves working in the international environment of New York. Anna has a degree in Political Science from Barnard College, a law degree from the Yale Law School and a Masters in International Business Law from the Sorbonne University in Paris.
