Integrating years of experience with a hand-selected team of talented and award winning agents, The Maria Babaev Team was formed to satisfy the lifestyle requirements of discerning clientele, spanning the North Shore of Long Island, the Hamptons, Manhattan, Westchester and Connecticut. The marketing of high-end properties and luxury lifestyles proved to be a natural combination, resulting in a real estate marketing powerhouse driven by the passion and success of the Douglas Elliman brand.

The Maria Babaev Team has set itself apart with its innovative marketing, strategic approach, and comprehensive services, including divisions for residential, commercial, new development and investment clients. With extensive backgrounds and education in international business, sports and entertainment, design, finance, hospitality and marketing, each team member brings a sharp skill-set and unique talent to each real estate transaction. Fluency in English, Russian, Hebrew and Mandarin enables the team to streamline deals proficiently with international buyers and sellers.  

The Maria Babaev Team is a proud recipient of the Douglas Elliman Pinnacle Award for six straight years (2014, 2015, 2016, 2017, 2018 and 2019) and was once again named Douglas Elliman's Top Team on Long Island for 2017.

Our services are distinctive and unique because, not only do we have the knowledge and expertise of luxury real estate on the Gold Coast of Long Island, we also understand that the landscape is ever-evolving, as the motivations and desires of consumers in this sector continue to change and develop. With each client, whether foreign or local, our team achieves excellence through bespoke service, expertise in interpreting their individual needs and incredible attention to detail, creating an unparalleled experience and constantly raising the bar for luxury living.

The powerful global alliance formed by Douglas Elliman and Knight Frank Residential is a testament to the vision, loyalty and commitment to our clientele. By cultivating this unique balance of worldwide scope with a personal touch, The Maria Babaev Team has become an international authority on the effective marketing of luxury properties, providing insightful advisory support along with sensitivity, discretion and intelligence.

We strongly believe that all business is deeply rooted in the client relationship, no matter what the dealings and or transaction might be. We strongly support each other and our clients, giving you access to experience and resources much greater than a single real estate agent could provide.
