Catherine Exantus Lic. RE Salesperson Senior Real Estate Specialist

Opening doors with an open mind! Each space Cathi enters activates her “designer's eye”- all the potential just pops into view! With years of experience as a semi-professional designer and landscaper, she knows that some people look for a beautiful place - others make a place beautiful;  life is open to endless possibilities.  And, when you list with Cathi - you’ll see why she’s called the “staging wonder child”. 

Grounded in the principle of understanding by design - through timely, honest, and clearly planned and delivered communication, she will guide you in making the most informed decisions possible.   After years of impacting lives via teaching middle school science, her style is low-pressure, patient - “eyes wide open” - collaboration for achieving your goals - whatever they are:  because a real estate transaction will change your life - not just be an investment.  Her old-school customer service, combined with an array of 21st-century cutting-edge tools, will keep your interests and concerns front of mind.    

Why here? Like so many, Cathi came to beautiful Ithaca to attend school, graduated from Cornell, fell in love, raised 4 kids, and, of course, never left.  In her free time, she cultivates joy in boating, gardening, reading, swimming, painting, visiting, meditating, and being a member of the Dorothy Cotton Jubilee Singers.  With her extensive knowledge of the Ithaca area and the Ithaca market, let Cathi open the door to your next chapter!  If you’re looking for an agent whose goal is happy friends and neighbors, not just sales volume, you’ve found her!
