Real estate is about people first — their stories, their goals, and the lives they’re building.
At Sandy Kauffman & Company, we believe in putting people over properties and relationships over transactions. Whether you’re buying your first home, selling a longtime family property, or searching for your next chapter, you’ll experience thoughtful guidance rooted in care, integrity, and local expertise.
As part of Engel & Völkers, we combine boutique, concierge-level service with a global network of trusted advisors — giving our clients both hometown insight and worldwide reach.
Our experience will move you forward
With deep roots in Philadelphia, the Main Line, and surrounding communities, our team understands that every move is personal. We take the time to listen, advocate, and guide — ensuring every decision reflects your priorities, not just market conditions.
Our approach is simple:
People over profits. Relationships over volume. Service over shortcuts.
From neighborhood knowledge to skilled negotiation, we’re here to make the process feel clear, supportive, and genuinely collaborative.
What sets us apart
People Over Properties
Real estate isn’t one-size-fits-all. We take the time to understand what matters most to you, crafting smart strategies that align with your goals and the realities of the market. By putting people first, we create meaningful outcomes, not just successful transactions, and relationships that last long after closing.
A Collaborative Team Working for You
Our team believes that great results come from collaboration, curiosity, and mutual respect. We support one another and our clients with fresh ideas and thoughtful solutions, creating a seamless experience that feels both professional and personal. Real estate opens doors — and we’re here to help you walk through them with confidence.
Our Philly Roots Run Deep
We’re proud to be part of the communities we serve. Supporting local businesses, engaging in neighborhood initiatives, and advocating for thoughtful growth. To us, real estate is more than an investment; it’s about helping people find spaces where life happens.
