Let us Bring the Suburbs to YOU!

Who We Are

Started in 2014, Jessica Fields and Brad Bateman, top real estate agents in NYC, have helped countless people find the perfect destination when it was time to leave the bounds of the city.  After seeing their clients struggle to learn about what communities were right for them, they teamed up with experts in the suburbs and beyond to provide educational events.  

Brad and Jessica collaboratively run one of the top real estate teams in Brooklyn, which provides the holistic support for their clients who are making the transition outside of the city.  They are experts at navigating the challenges of buying and selling simultaneously.  They provide a white-glove experience, understanding that their clients are experiencing a large transition when moving from the city.  Their vast network of vetted agents and vendors puts their clients in the best hands.

Meet the Team

With our home base in New York City, we bring the suburbs to you.  Our local experts help to guide you through the ins and outs of moving, starting from your home in the city and transitioning to your new destination. 

As with anything in life, having a great team behind you can make all the difference.

Founder

Jessica Fields

Jessica Fields began Beyond Brooklyn to help local Brooklynites learn more about the suburbs around New York City.  Many Brooklynites spoke of wanting the wonderful community that exists in Brooklyn but more space both inside and outside their homes.  Thus, Beyond Brooklyn was born. 
 

With a love for real estate and a desire to help clients find their forever homes, Jessica prides herself on being an informed educator, ensuring that her clients have all the information they need to make wise decisions.   She can be a great sounding board or fierce negotiator when needed.  Her clients' time and needs are supremely important, and she seeks to maximize their results while keeping life as calm as possible.
