Irene Racanelli was drawn to selling real estate after a lengthy career in construction development, building management, and handling rentals for an owner/developer, where she discovered her passion for interacting with people and flair for negotiating. A Port Washington resident since 1986, she has forged a respected name for herself in her community, as well as in the Manhasset, Sands Point and Plandome markets she serves, and has successfully sold and rented single- and multi-family homes as well as co-ops and condos throughout those areas.

Irene’s motto of service with a smile is not just some cliche; it’s her way of life. She is a serious salesperson who truly cares about her clients needs, and whose commitment extends through the life of their relationship – from first meeting to closing and beyond. Irene’s market experience and industry knowledge coupled with her studies in accounting also enable her to translate the facts and figures of home ownership, and find realistic solutions for each person’s needs.

Her close partnership with her sister and colleague Kathy Orioli further strengthens the attentive service and expert guidance that Irene always delivers. Being a strong listener and communicator is a key component of how they do business, and a valuable asset in getting the best results. Born in Greece, Irene speaks fluent English and Greek. While she enjoyed many years living and working in New York City, she boasts strong ties in and a deep love for her Port Washington home.
