Specializing in advising buyers, sellers and renters in the Scarsdale community and surrounding areas, Berretta has a unique professional background that provides her with a well-rounded skillset ideal for the real estate industry.

"Having worked with Houlihan Lawrence for my own real estate needs, I was impressed with the team's professionalism, service and the level of support afforded to all agents and their clients." Most recently holding the position of Business Engagement Lead with National Grid, an international electric and gas company, Berretta was able to hone her interpersonal relations skills and communicate multi-faceted processes, procedures and their effects to others, a talent essential in assisting clients through the complex real estate world. While at National Grid, she was responsible for preparing over 17,000 employees across the country for a major systems transformation, delivering individualized training sessions and running workshops for business leaders. With additional past experience in significant management and professional-level positions in marketing, product development, campaign oversight and sales support, Berretta has consistently been recognized for exceptional performance, team motivation and creative troubleshooting. In her new role at Houlihan Lawrence, she brings her proven success in providing personalized service, dedication and passion for the ultimate level of client satisfaction. "Peggy brings a unique viewpoint to the real estate market through her diverse professional background," said Lewis Arlt, Brokerage Manager of Houlihan Lawrence's Scarsdale office. "Her enthusiasm for real estate, coupled with her business knowledge and local roots, make Peggy a welcomed addition to our team." Born in Sleepy Hollow and raised in Ossining, Berretta lived in Brooklyn and Manhattan for several years before moving back to Westchester County and settling in Scarsdale 13 years ago.
