Led by one of Long Island’s Most Trusted Brokers
"After more than 30 years in Long Island real estate, my focus today is simple: helping driven agents build the kind of careers they truly want."
Amy Kernaghan is the Broker and Owner of Realty Direct NY. Over three decades, she has become one of the most recognized names in Long Island real estate — earning the nickname The Real Estate House Doctor for her honest, diagnostic approach to buying and selling.
Today, Amy is just as passionate about helping agents grow as she is about serving clients. She openly shares the experience, strategies, and market knowledge that have driven $750M in successful transactions — giving the agents on her team a real advantage as they build their own careers.
Four Reasons Agents
Thrive Here
We're not a revolving-door brokerage. Every agent on this team is here because they want to grow — and we're here because we want to help them do exactly that.
The 30-Year Edge
Knowledge that took decades to earn — shared freelyWhen your broker has seen every market cycle, every transaction type, and every kind of client Long Island has to offer, you don't have to learn everything the hard way. Amy's experience becomes your competitive advantage from day one — on pricing, negotiation, strategy, and everything in between.
A Brand That Opens Doors
350+ five-star reviews before you say helloJoining Realty Direct NY means clients already trust the name on your card. Amy has spent 30 years building a reputation that commands attention across Nassau and Suffolk County. That trust is something you inherit — and it's worth more than most solo agents realize until they experience it firsthand.
Real Mentorship. Real Access.
Not just a name on a license — a broker who shows upAmy isn't a figurehead. She is actively present, genuinely accessible, and deeply committed to the professional growth of every agent on this team. Whether you're brand new or hitting a wall years in, you'll have a mentor who has actually walked the path and knows how to help you move forward.
A Culture That Wants You to Win
Collaboration over competition — alwaysAt Realty Direct NY, we don't operate like a collection of solo agents sharing a roof. This is a real team. People share knowledge, celebrate each other's wins, and show up for one another. When you thrive, we all thrive — and that's not a tagline, it's how we work every single day.
