In her new role at Houlihan Lawrence, she brings her proven success in providing personalized service, dedication and passion for the ultimate level of client satisfaction. "Peggy brings a unique viewpoint to the real estate market through her diverse professional background," said Lewis Arlt, Brokerage Manager of Houlihan Lawrence's Scarsdale office. "Her enthusiasm for real estate, coupled with her business knowledge and local roots, make Peggy a welcomed addition to our team."
