Biography

2023 Member of the Coldwell Banker International Sterling Society
Awarded to the Top 11% of Coldwell Banker Agents Worldwide

I grew up in western Pennsylvania about 25 miles east of Pittsburgh in an area very much like here in Ulster County, NY. Good friends would describe me as having a sharp wit, huge heart and the loyalty of a dog. I've been with the love of my life for nearly 30 years now and my wife is a local gal. We love to travel, hike, kayak and work with rescue dogs. Our breed of choice is the German Shorthair Pointer. Pointers are smart, stubborn and full of love, like us!

I moved to Kingston, New York in the fall of 1984 for a great job working for IBM. My background was in mechanics and electronics, and I fit in very well with their mainframe computer technician program.  After 16 years there I was ready for a change, and I started a local land development business. I purchased a dozen or more building lots at tax sales and then improved them till they were shovel ready. Selling those lots thru a local Broker got me interested and in 2003 I decided to try my hand at selling real estate. I've worked full time in this profession ever since and I have to tell you that I love it! I've found the job to be very demanding at times but oh so fulfilling. Over the last 18 years I've sold so many homes and parcels of land and I feel equally versed in working with both buyers and sellers.  It's such a wonderful feeling to help my client be able to get on to the next chapter in their lives.

Testimonials

Bruce Stalnaker is a sensitive realtor. He really knows how and when to sit back, to give space, to steer the ship, to nudge you when you need it & be a good ear through the process. Great people skills! Funny guy, too. A pleasure to work with.

- Valeria Gheorghiu

Bruce Stalnaker was literally the most helpful person in this whole process. He was open and honest with me and was a fantastic resource for me in finding local surveyors, lawyers, and even a bank that was willing to lend for vacant land. As I am not from the area where I purchased my property, I really lucked out with Bruce. Bruce was able to point me in the right direction with each step of the buying process. Going into this I knew nothing about what it takes to buy and develop a vacant property and with his help the process was much less intimidating. Bruce was even able to help me chose several potential building sites on the land and was present when the site engineering was done for septic maps and board of health approval. I couldn’t have asked for more from a realtor.

- Jared Besemer

Bruce Stalnaker guided me though the sale of my land professionally and with perfect results. He provided good information about the market, helped a lot with price setting which was very satisfying to me and lead negotiations with potential buyers. He helped prepare the land for sale and even offered to neat it up since I was away. I am very happy with the outcome and would not hesitate to recommend his services.

- Stefan Wisniewski

Bruce Stalnaker was extremely helpful, he cares about his client. He is always in touch to inform about the sale progress. He always answers his phone in a very timely manner.

- Brian Crago

Bruce Stalnaker was very helpful in finding the best properties for us to see based on our criteria and beyond accommodating with booking & showing. He was great to work with and always responsive and available to answer our many questions.

- Walter & Staci Kurick

Bruce Stalnaker was professional and easy to work with on the sale of 202 Sherry Lane. He made recommendations to prep the house for sale and guided me through the process. I would recommend Bruce as either a buyer's or seller's agent as he explained what a buyer would be looking at and for when they toured a house.

- Estate of Gerlack

Bruce Stalnaker was amazing. Would highly recommend him. He answered every question quick and honest.

- Stacy Rea

I think once you look around a bit here in Ulster County, NY that you'll want to plant roots here. We're located about 2 hours from the heart of New York City and at the base of the gorgeous Catskill Mountains. We're also graced by the amazing Shawangunk Ridge that passes thru here. Climbers from around the world come to take on its sheer rock faces. You will find endless protected acres here as well in incredible parks like the Mohonk Preserve and Minnewaska State Park. This area is teaming with streams to swim and fish and trails to hike or bike. The valley areas are full of fertile land and all the wonderful farms and wineries that go along with it. You might start out as a weekender here but soon you'll join us full time.

You have picked an amazing company to work with. Our agents and Brokers are top shelf, and we cover this area with multiple offices. I'd love to work with you whether you're buying or selling homes or raw land. 2021 was my best year in real estate so far and I look forward to making you part of an even better year in 2022.
