Danielle Carlson-Murphy

NYS Licensed Real Estate Broker • Start Home Smart, Inc.

"She didn't just sell our house — she coordinated the cleanout, connected us with the right repair professionals, and made sure everything was perfect before we listed. We've never had an agent like her in 30 years."

— Client, Hudson Valley, NY

🌟 Above & Beyond, Every Time Danielle coordinated a full cleanout and connected her client with trusted local professionals to handle every repair — because getting your home market-ready is part of the job. This isn't the exception. It's the standard.
Why We're Different

Real Estate With a Human Touch

Most agents hand you a lockbox and wish you luck. Danielle Carlson-Murphy rolls up her sleeves. She's known throughout the Hudson Valley for her relentless dedication to clients — going beyond what anyone would ever expect or ask for.

Start Home Smart was founded on a belief that homeownership should be accessible to everyone in the Hudson Valley — not just those who can afford bidding war premiums. With decades of combined real estate expertise and deep local roots, we find, negotiate, and close homes at prices that make sense.

And now, we've added AI-powered support so you can reach us any hour of any day. Because great service doesn't take weekends off.

We Go Above & Beyond.
It's Not a Slogan.

Danielle is known for it — coordinating every detail, connecting you with the right professionals, making sure nothing falls through the cracks.

"I was overwhelmed. The house was full of 30 years of belongings and I didn't know how I was going to get it ready to sell. Danielle came in, helped me sort through everything, coordinated the cleanout, and personally made sure the repairs were done right. She didn't have to do any of that. She just did it because she cares. My home sold in 11 days above asking price."

— Verified Client Testimonial  ·  Hudson Valley, NY

"Working with Danielle was outstanding. She was knowledgeable, responsive, and incredibly helpful — from pricing strategy and repair decisions to managing offers. Her knowledge of local resources got our home ready to sell quickly. She was hands-on so we could be hands-off, while keeping us informed every step of the way."

— Verified Client  ·  Hudson Valley, NY

"Danielle has to be the best realtor in the area. She guided her way through 3 potential buyers who at the last minute, backed out. She never got discouraged and kept us constantly informed during the whole process. She has a keen eye as to make changes that will help sell the house. She always goes the extra mile."

— hmpearlman  ·  Hudson Valley, NY

"Our new home would not be what it is today without Danielle. Not only does she know everyone who can help in making your home a better place but her calm demeanor and happy disposition has been a constant thread to having us understand and make intelligent decisions. She is no longer just a real estate professional but is now a friend who has in many ways gone above and beyond her line of work to help out."

— Christine Tesson  ·  1 Old Mill Road, New Paltz, NY

"We can't say enough great things about Danielle. She truly went above and beyond, making what could have been an overwhelming and emotional process — cleaning out and selling a childhood home — feel seamless. When we couldn't be there, Danielle stepped in and handled everything with care and attention to detail. We are incredibly grateful and would recommend Danielle to absolutely everyone."

— Verified Seller  ·  Hudson Valley, NY · 2026

"Danielle went far above and beyond helping us find the perfect house. She made herself available to fit our crazy schedules and would get us in to see the houses she knew we would want to see sometimes on the day they went on the market! I would highly recommend Danielle to ANYONE looking to purchase a house."

— Verified Buyer  ·  Hudson Valley, NY

"Danielle Carlson-Murphy is an absolute gem of a realtor. Not only did she give us the heads up that a neighboring parcel was just put on the market, she did everything in her power to make the sale go smoothly, quickly and without a hitch. Danielle approaches every real estate transaction with a fine mind, high principles and uncommon kindness."

— Verified Client  ·  Hudson Valley, NY

"Thank you Danielle for helping find and close on this wonderful property. It is just beautiful and the price was great. Your help with the taxes was key — working with the Assessor on my behalf. You went above and beyond in many ways. Most of all, you were honest and I trusted you implicitly. Anyone who wants an excellent realtor should work with Danielle."

— Verified Buyer  ·  Hudson Valley, NY

"Danielle did an amazing job of really getting to know us and understand exactly what we were looking for in a home. As first time home buyers we could not imagine going through the process with anyone else. Danielle made the experience as pain free as possible and we highly recommend her to anyone looking to buy a home."

— Verified First-Time Buyers  ·  Hudson Valley, NY

"Allison just called me and told me the house closed today and talked about how amazing you have been to them!! Thank you so much ❤️❤️"
