Top Hamptons broker Terry Cohen joins Compass

“I am exactly where I want to be in my career, and I see change as an opportunity for growth,” said Cohen. “As brokers, to remain relevant, we are constantly evolving through ever -changing markets, so change is not scary for me. I actually welcome it.

“Leaving Hedgerow was not an easy decision, but it was confronted with understanding and goodwill – something that I deeply appreciate.”

Her step to Kompas marks a shift in its business model, because Cohen will continue independently without its previous top -producing real estate team.

Cohen said that the transition enables her to expand her reach and concentrate on broader opportunities.

“During this search I got the chance to make close contact with different companies, each of them was impressive,” she said. “I would like to thank you for your time and look forward to working on many deals.

“In the end, Compass stood out for me and my needs. The cooperation culture and the extensive network made it the ideal choice for the next chapter of my journey – and I am excited to lean in it.”

Joe Fuer, the director of Compass in The Hamptons, called the addition of Cohen an important step for the company.

“We are very happy to join forces with Terry,” said Fuer. “Her deep knowledge of the East End market and extensive experience, combined with the power of the compass network, make this an ideal partnership. It is a perfect coordination of talent, resources and shared values. We will have a lot of fun.”
