Halstead CEO Diane M. Ramirez
shares the secrets to her success
BY SCHNEPS MEDIA
On the newest episode of Power
Women with Victoria Schneps,
Diane M. Ramirez, the chief executive
offi cer and chairman of Halstead
Real Estate, joins the show to
discuss her secrets to success.
Under Ramirez’s leadership, Halstead
has grown into a company with
more than 1,400 agents throughout
Manhattan, Brooklyn, Queens, the
Bronx, the Hamptons, Hudson Valley,
New Jersey and Connecticut.
On the podcast, Ramirez talks
about growing up in Queens, her family
life and her exquisite career. She
also gives insider advice on real estate
and staying present, even when work
and success seem overwhelming.
Born in Jackson Heights, with families
all around her, Ramirez credits her
supportive but independent childhood
for part of her success in business.
“We all had a sense of freedom, of
being able to play out in the streets,”
Ramirez said. “Every parent was your
parent.”
But still, being outside and having
that freedom meant Ramirez also had
to be self-suffi cient.
“I also did high school in Jamaica,”
Ramirez said. “So I had to travel at a
young age on my own and that, again,
gave me the confi dence of what I could
accomplish.”
Ramirez started in real estate as an
agent. With young kids and a supportive
husband, the job worked well with
her life. But when the kids went off to
boarding school, Ramirez knew what
she had to do.
“That’s when I knew I wanted to elevate
my career,” Ramirez said. “So I
decided to open my own fi rm.”
The “Power Women” podcasts
share successful women’s secrets to
success.
