Lucky to Live Here® was built on the experience, passion, and proven success of top-producing real estate professionals who proudly call Long Island home. We believe real estate is about more than buying and selling homes—it's about building relationships, strengthening communities, and helping people embrace the lifestyle they're lucky to live every day. As trusted local experts, we're committed to educating, guiding, and advocating for our clients through every step of their real estate journey.
Founders Elena D'Agostino and Joyce Mennella first partnered in 2011, united by a shared commitment to exceptional service and a vision for a more personal, community-focused real estate experience. Inspired by the idea that home is about more than an address, they launched Lucky to Live Here® Realty in 2015, creating a boutique brokerage centered on local expertise, innovative marketing, and lasting client relationships.
In 2026, Elena and Joyce proudly joined SERHANT as the Lucky to Live Here® Team. As part of one of the nation's most innovative real estate companies, they are able to offer clients the best of both worlds: the personalized attention and trusted relationships that have always defined Lucky to Live Here®, now enhanced by SERHANT's world-class marketing, global network, media reach, and proprietary technology.
