This post comes with a heavy heart. There was so much love and not enough time.

Diane Mary Ristagno of Vero Beach, FL passed away peacefully in her sleep on April 28 after a six-month battle with leukemia, which she faced with strength so she could have more time with her family and friends.

Originally from Dorchester, MA, Diane adored - and was deeply adored by - her husband, her three children, and her seven grandchildren. She had a way of making sure everyone had fun, even in tough moments. She let people be exactly who they wanted to be, never putting pressure on anyone to be anything else. And once she noticed you liked something, the next time you showed up, there would be plenty of it.

Diane is survived by her husband, Robert, with whom she celebrated her 50th wedding anniversary last year on June 7 (6/7! 6/7!); her children, Robert Jr., Andrea, and James; and her grandchildren, Adam, Ryan, Helena, Lexi, Olivia, Emilia, and Dominic.

A celebration of life will be held in Vero Beach, FL on August 1. Details to follow.

In lieu of flowers, please consider a donation to the VNA Hospice House of Vero Beach in Diane’s name (she never liked flowers anyway).

Had the opportunity this week to attend a private presentation for Cipriani Residences Miami as part of the Coldwell Banker Global Luxury network.

The project is shaping up to be one of the most compelling new developments in Brickell — blending the Cipriani hospitality brand with luxury residential living, service, and waterfront views.

What stood out most was how much the luxury buyer profile has evolved. Today’s buyers are looking for more than just square footage or finishes — they’re looking for lifestyle, service, and long-term value in globally recognized brands.

One of the advantages of being part of the Coldwell Banker Global Luxury network is early access to developments like this and the ability to represent clients directly when opportunities arise.

If you’re considering a second home, investment property, or relocating to South Florida, I’m happy to share insights from the presentation and help navigate the process.

Always glad to be a resource.

Honored to share that I’ve been recognized in the 2025 International Diamond Society for the second consecutive year with Coldwell Banker Realty — placing me among the Top 7% of agents worldwide.

I’m incredibly grateful to the clients, friends, and referral partners who trust me with one of the biggest financial and personal decisions of their lives. Your confidence, introductions, and continued support make achievements like this possible.

As we head into 2026, my focus remains the same:
• Delivering strategic pricing and marketing
• Helping buyers win in competitive markets
• Creating opportunities for investors and sellers across Northern NJ and the NYC corridor

If you know someone considering a move, investing, or exploring options this year, I’m always happy to be a resource.

Thank you for being part of this journey.
