About Klara Madlin

Klara Madlin was a clothing designer. In the 1980’s when she was 35 years old she bought a brownstone with another designer. They proceeded to coop the building. She lost her job and was standing on a scaffold painting the ceiling when her partner said “did you ever notice that there are no designers over 40 unless their husbands own the company?” Not until now she answered, and went to call her broker who admitted to being 80 years old. Ruth, she asked, “ how long have you been doing this?” 20 years was the answer. “You mean you started at 60?” Yes, Ruth answered. The rest is history......

Klara Madlin Real Estate Inc. was formed in 1984 to specialize in the sale of cooperative, condominium apartments and townhouses in Manhattan. 20 years ago she formed a parnership with Ann Ferguson. In 2022 Klara Madlin R. E. was closed and merged with Ann Ferguson LLC as Klara Madlin decided to place her Brokers license under the new firm. This way she can give up managing a firm and concentrate on what she likes best. Helping people find the next chapter in their life of where and how they want to live. Her policy is to give individual attention and service to both buyers and sellers in our community. Klara Madlin was elected to the Board of MANAR (Manhattan Association of Realtors).
