From City Streets to the Burbs: A Fun Morning for NYC Families Dreaming of More Space in the City or the Suburbs

Real Estate November 5, 2025

Thinking about trading up to an apartment with more room and amenities in your current City neighborhood? Or maybe you’re just curious about what life in the suburbs really looks like for NYC families?

Join us on Saturday, November 15 from 10–11:30 AM at Chiotes Hall, 337 East 74th Street, for a special music-filled morning hosted by Compass agents from NYC, New Jersey, Westchester, Connecticut, and Long Island.

🎵 Enjoy a live Little Maestros performance for little ones and their grown-ups


☕ Meet and mingle with top Compass agents who specialize in helping city dwellers make seamless moves to the suburbs


💬 Ask your real estate questions in a casual, family-friendly setting

👉 Reserve your free spot now: RSVP on Eventbrite

Why Attend?

This event is the perfect mix of fun for your kids and smart for your future.
If you’ve been:

  • Searching Compass late at night wondering what $1.5-2M buys outside the city or which City locations you can afford more space in 🏡

  • Wondering which commuter towns have walkable downtowns, great schools, and express trains 🚆

  • Trying to figure out how to balance space, community, and convenience 👶

—you’ll get answers directly from experienced Compass NYC agents and suburban relocation experts who live and work in these markets every day.

Meet Your Hosts

This one-of-a-kind collaboration brings together some of Compass’ most trusted city and suburban specialists:

Alexis Brand | Stacey Froelich | Kelly Herman | Allison Ziefert | Ginge Calhoun | Alana Benjamin

Together, they’ll share insider insights on:

  • What are your options to find more space in NYC

  • The most popular suburban communities for NYC buyers (think Maplewood, Montclair, Port Washington, Westport and the River Towns, and more)

  • How to time your sale or purchase for maximum return

  • What’s really changed in the 2025 market—from mortgage rates to bidding wars

  • How to make your move financially smart and emotionally easy

A Real Estate Event That’s Actually Fun

Forget the PowerPoint. This is a kid-friendly morning where you can connect with agents who understand the emotional side of the move—and the logistics that make it happen.
Bring your partner, your little ones, your questions, and your curiosity.

✨ Music, coffee, conversation, and next-chapter inspiration—all in one place.
