About Claudia Looi

You deserve straight answers, smart strategy, and a Realtor who knows how to guide major life transitions, not generic promises or recycled market talk.

I’m a full-time listing and selling agent serving Queens, Long Island, and Brooklyn, with hyper-local expertise in Elmhurst, Rego Park, Forest Hills, Jackson Heights, Douglaston, Little Neck, Deer Park (LI) and East New York (Brooklyn). These neighborhoods aren’t just places I work, they’re markets I study, walk, negotiate in, and serve every single day.

But my real estate roots go deeper than most people realize.

I was a real estate investor long before the 2008 financial crisis, navigating cycles, risks, and opportunities with my own portfolio before guiding anyone else. That experience shaped the way I advise sellers and buyers today: cautious when needed, strategic when it matters, and always focused on long-term outcomes.

Before real estate became my career, I spent 12 years in the travel industry, living and working in Kuala Lumpur, Auckland, and New York. From 2011 to 2019, I also built a parallel career as a digital content creator and over the years, I’ve traveled independently to 103 countries simply because discovery, culture, and curiosity are part of who I am. That global experience didn’t just broaden my perspective—it sharpened my communication, negotiation, and decision-making skills.

Those skills are exactly what my clients rely on now.

Because real estate isn’t just a transaction.
It’s a turning point.
It’s rightsizing.
It’s family decisions.
It’s planning the next chapter with clarity.

My work focuses on:

• Listing and selling co-ops, condos, and single-family homes across Queens and Long Island
• Helping long-time homeowners rightsize with confidence
• Guiding families navigating estate, trust, and sponsor-unit sales
• Strategically positioning properties for maximum visibility in today’s AI-driven search landscape
• Supporting international and out-of-state sellers who need a trusted local expert on the ground
• Advising buyers entering competitive neighborhoods across Queens, LI, and Brooklyn

I don’t approach real estate as sales.
I approach it as life change—and my job is to make that change clearer, easier, and more strategic.

So whether you’re preparing to sell a home you’ve owned for 20+ years…
Whether you’re overwhelmed by decluttering or rightsizing…
Whether you want a data-driven market read before making any decisions…
Or whether you simply need a knowledgeable, steady advisor…

You’re in the right place.
