Name: Isabelle Pullis Title: Vice President Sales Company/firm: Fidelity National Title Years in field: 31 Years in real estate industry: 31 Address: One Park Ave, New York, NY 10016 Telephone: 212 471 3708 Email: [email protected] URL: fidelitytitleny.com Real estate organizations / affiliations: NYCREW, AREW, National Realty Club What was your greatest professional accomplishment in 2010? Just staying in the game and staying in close contact with customers What was your most notable project, deal or transaction in 2010? My most fun project was the condo conversion of 151 Hudson St. It was a throw-back to the '80s. The tenants, who were mostly in the arts, got together; bought the building; then converted it into condominiums. What advice would you give to women just starting out in commercial real estate? Be prepared to re-invent yourself every five years or so. It is a business that is constantly changing. How do you manage the work/life balance? It is a breeze now that my children are grown. I often wish that cellphones were around when they were little. What impact has social networking had on your business? I suspect that customers who have been referred to me check me out on Linkedin, but I have never received an order from someone who just found me online.
