Half of what we sell never reaches a public listing. A discreet residential brokerage representing buyers and sellers in New York, San Francisco, and London — by introduction since 2009.
[ ABOUT US]
Marby was founded in 2009 with a quiet conviction that residential real estate had become too quick, too transactional, and too uniform. In our first year we represented eleven clients. In our most recent we represented forty-three. The work has grown only at the pace at which we could keep it considered.

[ SERVICES ]
Property [ 01 ]
Buyer representation for clients acquiring a primary residence, a pied-à-terre, or a long-considered second home. We work to a brief — not a budget — and we are content to wait.
Property [ 02 ]
A sale conducted like a piece of editorial — photographed, written, and shown to the right people. We market least, and tend to sell closest to asking price.
Property [ 03 ]
For clients with homes they live in part of the year — or rent only to people they would have over for dinner. We treat every property as if it were our own address.

[ Testimonials ]
"We'd been searching for the right property in Greenwich for almost two years. Marby came in, understood exactly what we were looking for, and within six weeks we were under contract on something better than we'd imagined."

[ FEATURES]
Not bigger marketing or louder promises. Six small commitments, kept every time.
Each advisor carries six to ten mandates — not sixty. The difference shows in everything from a returned call to a closing.
[ 01 ]
Roughly half of what changes hands at Marby never reaches a public portal. Discretion is not a feature — it is the practice.
[ 02 ]
In-house photography, architectural floor plans, and copy written by people who have done it before. We market homes the way magazines used to.
[ 03 ]
Quarterly briefings on the markets that matter to you — written, not generated. We track what sold, why, and what it tells us.
[ 04 ]
We work alongside your counsel and bankers — or introduce ours. Closings handled with the seriousness they deserve.
[ 05 ]
Architects, contractors, conservators, gardeners — the relationships that make moving in feel less like moving. Yours for the first year.
[ 06 ]
[ OUR TEAM ]
Seventy advisors across New York, San Francisco, and London. Architects, designers, lawyers, and a few former editors — the kind of people you might already know.
