A Chat with Drew Green: An Approachable Real Estate Agent in The Hamptons

David Andrewsby David Andrews
in Real Estate, Trending
Home Real Estate
Licensed Associate Real Estate Broker, Andrew W. Green (Drew Green)

Drew Green is as much a part of the Hamptons real estate landscape as hedgerows and hydrangeas. A local icon with 28 years of experience, even if you aren’t familiar with Hamptons real estate (yet), you’ve likely been “shopping with Drew” at King Kullen, where he advertises on the shopping carts! 

 

Known for his wit, warmth, and uncanny ability to close a deal before you’ve finished your first cup of coffee, Drew brings a uniquely human perspective to the business of buying and selling. We caught up with him to talk landmarks, markets, history—and why you should always hire two bartenders.

 

The last time we spoke, you pointed out your “favorite tree in the Hamptons.” Do you have any other Hamptons landmarks our readers should explore?

 

So glad you remember that. Great tree! (It’s still standing, by the way—stronger than ever.) One spot I always recommend, especially if you love those quintessential Hamptons views, are the open vistas along Cooks Lane in Water Mill. It’s just off Scuttle Hole Road, tucked slightly south of the Atlantic Golf Club. The fields roll out in layers, with farmhouses dotting the horizon like they’ve been painted there. You get that sense of timelessness of the Hamptons. It’s a great little drive. 

 

You’ve experienced many different economic climates. How does the Hamptons real estate market track with the overall economic climate across the country?

 

Interesting question. In my 28 years, I’ve seen a lot: dot-com booms and busts, financial crashes, 9/11, and of course, the pandemic. What’s fascinating about the Hamptons real estate is that it often booms in times of major upheaval (9/11, Covid pandemic, etc.) I think it’s because people see (and rightly so) the Hamptons as a “safe haven” when world events make things seem uncertain.

 

After major world events—especially the ones that shift how people live and work—this market doesn’t slow down; it surges. After 9/11 and the pandemic hit, suddenly, people realized they needed an enclave and didn’t have to be in the city five days a week. They wanted space, air, and light. And we’ve got that in spades.

 

The Hamptons are what I call a “safety-value luxury.” When the world feels uncertain, people want a place that feels steady, beautiful, and grounded. And when things are booming? Well, they want to celebrate that here too. Either way—up, down, sideways—money moves when the world changes. And that leads to deals. Coming and going, going and coming. For agents, that’s activity. For buyers and sellers, that’s an opportunity.

 

Describe your perfect Hamptons weekend.

 

Easy: It starts with an early Saturday showing followed closely by a handshake deal—because nothing kicks off a weekend like a little real estate magic. Maybe an agreed listing pitch in the afternoon. Then I’m heading to a dockside happy hour—nothing too fancy, just something crisp in a glass and a view of the water. The day wraps with a beautiful dinner at home with my beautiful wife and maybe a house guest or two in our backyard. Lights twinkling, grill going, music low. That’s the Hamptons at its best—deals and dinners, all in a day.

 

You’re quite the history buff. As a Sag Harbor Village resident, can you share any interesting facts about Sag Harbor?

 

Absolutely—and just tell me when I’ve bored you because I can go deep here. Sag Harbor has this incredible backstory. Right before the Civil War, it was actually the second-biggest port of commerce in the entire United States. That’s wild when you think about it today. The whaling industry put it on the map, and a lot of that wealth and history is still embedded in the architecture, the street layout, even the vibe. You can feel it walking down Main Street. The Village is a living chapter of American history.

 

Anyone lucky enough to have been to your parties knows you know how to entertain. What are the keys to great entertaining in the Hamptons?

 

That’s easy: two bartenders with fast hands! 

 

READY TO MAKE YOUR MOVE TO THE HAMPTONS?

 

Give Drew a call—Just don’t be surprised if you leave with a deal and a great new trivia fact.

 

Whether he’s guiding clients through multimillion-dollar listings or giving you a Sag Harbor history lesson over a cocktail, Drew Green is exactly the kind of agent—and neighbor—you want in your corner. He knows the market, knows the terrain, and more importantly, knows how to keep things fun. Next time you’re at King Kullen, grab a cart and consider it your unofficial intro to the Drew Green experience.

  • Hilary Matt Interiors is a residential design firm started and located in New York City with projects spanning across the country, including in the Hamptons and East End.⁠
⁠
Hilary, principal and founder, is known for a bold aesthetic that is comfortable and livable. She always keeps her clients at the forefront so they can express themselves as individuals through their spaces. After starting out in the fashion industry, Hilary felt a call to interior design where she has been bringing her unique approach and style to every space as the brand continues to grow.⁠
⁠
Hilary spoke more about her background, how each HMI project differs from one another, and why the Hamptons is such a special place to her. She also shared her top 5 interior design tips as inspiration.⁠
⁠
Can you discuss your background and how you got started with interior design?⁠
⁠
HM: I studied business and apparel merchandising. After graduating, my first job was at a women’s contemporary showroom in NYC. I had always loved fashion and wanted to be in the industry. After a year, I realized it wasn’t quite what I expected. I had always been interested in interior design, so I took a leap of faith and accepted a job as an assistant to an interior designer. I was initially nervous to leave fashion, but I figured I could always return. I ended up loving it and worked with her for eight years, learning the ins and outs of the business. I also took classes on weekends and evenings to learn computer programs, scaling, and other essential skills. After leaving that position and having my first son, I started my own company, which has snowballed into what we are today.⁠

  • Comedian Des Bishop took the stage at Westhampton Beach Performing Arts Center this week and delivered laugh after laugh. A native New Yorker, Des moved to Ireland in his teenage years, which ultimately inspired his start in comedy and a successful career that has spanned three decades.⁠
⁠
His comedy is full of observational humor and nostalgia, whether it be about his many cross-cultural experiences, an ever-changing societal landscape, and his own personal stories growing up. Des brings energy and a unique perspective to every show, evident at his Westhampton show, the place he has spent all his summers since the 90s.⁠
⁠
Des spoke more about his background, how his experiences have shaped his approach to comedy, his connection with the East End, and his WHBPAC show.⁠
⁠
Can you tell us a bit about your background and how you first got into comedy?⁠
⁠
DB: Well, my background is a little complicated, but the quick version is I grew up in Queens, flunked out of St. Francis Prep at 14, and ended up going to Ireland to boarding school in 1990. It was a crazy, life-changing experience, but it definitely saved my education and ultimately inspired a comedy career that in the early days focused a lot on being an outsider looking in. It’s hard to know if I ever would have tried stand-up if I hadn’t been in Ireland. I got sober at 19 and it was a comedian I knew from that world that pushed me to try stand up. Once I got on stage that was all she wrote. I was addicted.⁠
