Get to Know Chris Hanson

I am a life-time resident of the Hudson Valley and current resident of the City of Newburgh, NY.  My wife and I live in its Historic District, in an historic home we have restored.  With my experience in real estate, planning and home restoration/renovation, I have served as a board member of Newburgh's Architectural Revue Commission, Newburgh Preservation Association, Newburgh 2020 (revitalization advisory board), and several other advisory/consultation groups related to real estate and revitalization.  I am also an advisor to the Newburgh Community Land Bank.  I am happy to put this knowledge and experience to use while helping my clients achieve their goals.  My own professional goal is to have well-informed, happy and successful clients who become life-long clients!

My educational background is in fine arts & graphic design; and I have been a professional musician as well.  In addition to my experience as a real estate professional, I feel my years of home renovation/restoration, civic & community involvement, and my years as a touring musician in a 7-member band have taught me a great deal about negotiation, cooperation, patience, communication and timing.  The design background is also very useful when marketing a client's home.
