Broadcasting and video expertise enables local Realtor to tell a home’s full and true story
For more than 30 years, Noah Finz leveraged his talent as a communicator, as a TV anchor, host and sportscaster. He was recognized with awards from the Associated Press, Golden Mic, and with multiple Emmy Awards. His experiences and expertise led him to a new career in real estate marketing. He and his wife Kendra Farn — a TV veteran, as well — founded their own video production company, P Garyn Productions, a nod to their daughters’ names. In 2020, he became a licensed Realtor, as well, and is affiliated with Houlihan
Lawrence’s Riverside brokerage.
To say that Finz is adept at marketing a home and leveraging digital technologies on his clients’ behalf might be understatement. “I offer, as part of my listing services, a video marketing the house at no charge,” he said. “The video is professionally produced, shot — including drone footage — and with a professional host giving a video walkthrough of the house.”
Finz works with both buyers and sellers. He’s particularly knowledgeable about the market nuances between Greenwich,
Old Greenwich and Riverside, as well as Stamford.
“We are still seeing the ripple effects of the pandemic,” he said. “Initially, it was a flurry of people seeking refuge from the densely populated areas. There were many people who wanted to move, but figured they would wait on the sidelines until the frenzy ended. In the meantime, the number of homes dwindled. … People who initially rented realized how wonderful it is to live here and decided to buy, further decreasing the inventory, and so, due to the decreased supply and continued demand, it continues to be a competitive process.”
“Anyone considering a move, the time has never been better to sell,” he suggested. “And for buyers, there are still great opportunities. They need to be patient, but when what they are looking for is available, they need to be ready to pounce.”
Finz and his family live in Old Greenwich, where they are active members of the community. He’s frequently engaged in fundraising for local charities and foundations, including the Alzheimer’s Association, Pathways and Greenwich Point Conservancy. He’s an honorary member of the Walter Camp Football Foundation. Golf and spending time with his family are his favorite pastimes.
