We’re still taking it in: in 2025, the Bianca Colasuonno Team closed over $100,000,000 in real estate sales. And it happened the best way possible right here at home, across the neighborhoods we know (and genuinely love) in Queens, NY.
From Astoria to Middle Village, Sunnyside, Forest Hills, Flushing, Bayside, and more, we helped buyers and sellers make big moves in a market that wasn’t always easy, but was always worth navigating with the right plan.
And while the number is exciting, what it really represents is the part we care about most: real people, real decisions, and a lot of trust. It’s the late-night calls, the “should we do it?” moments, the inspections, the appraisals, the board packages, the negotiations… and the relief when we finally get to say: you’re home.
What selling $100M+ in Queens real estate actually means
To us, volume isn’t a trophy; it’s proof of reps. It means we’ve been in the trenches, over and over again, in the exact situations Queens buyers and sellers run into.
It means we’ve:
- Priced homes correctly (especially in fast-moving pockets of Astoria real estate and other high-demand areas)
- Negotiated through real issues, inspection findings, appraisal gaps, timing pressure, and shifting buyer expectations
- Managed the Queens-specific stuff that trips people up: co-op boards, condo financials, house rules, building assessments, and timelines
- Protected sellers’ net proceeds and buyers’ long-term value, not just “got a deal done.”
If you’re searching for a Queens real estate agent or an Astoria real estate agent, you deserve more than someone to open a door. You deserve a team that can guide the outcome and keep you calm while we handle the hard parts.
Why 2025 was the year strategy mattered more than ever
Queens is not a one-size-fits-all market. A co-op in Sunnyside behaves differently from a condo in Astoria, and a single-family home in Bayside has a completely different buyer pool than a multifamily in Forrest Hills.
This year, we saw it clearly:
- Buyers needed clarity and confidence to act quickly (and not second-guess every step)
- Sellers did best when they prepared well and priced intelligently
- In co-ops especially, details mattered: financials, rules, board expectations, and buyer profiles
That’s where our advantage shows up: hyper-local knowledge + a process built specifically for Queens.
