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.
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
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.
