HEATHER WILLIG
Licensed Real Estate Salesperson
As the first woman to do so, Heather proudly continues her family’s legacy as a fourth-generation real estate agent in the Capital District and prides herself on ensuring that each client’s experience is a positive and seamless one. Prior to starting her real estate career, Heather received her degree in economics at Binghamton University and then completed post-graduate work at New York’s Fashion Institute of Technology and spent 20 years in NYC working with major brands in the women’s fashion industry before returning to the Capital Region. Interior design studies, real-world renovation experience, and success representing both builders and clients in new home construction have allowed Heather to apply her eye for design and impeccable fashion sense to help clients envision their new space whether it’s to build, buy or remodel. She has also forayed this talent into real estate development having launched Mountains Edge at Lake George, a 16-lot subdivision with a partner. Born and raised in Niskayuna, Heather has called Malta home since 1997 where she lives with her husband, and also spends considerable time in Lake Placid where they own and manage a rental property.
“I'm proud to carry on the family tradition as a fourth-generation real estate sales agent in the Capital District. I still meet people my father worked with 40 years ago that speak highly of their experience; I bring that same level of service to my clients and hope that they'll remember me in 40 years as well.
My first-hand understanding of the importance in finding peace and satisfaction with one’s home is what motivates me to help my clients achieve this for themselves. I pride myself on being energetic, accessible, and attentive throughout the transaction. I'll educate you about the buying and selling process as we go to ensure a seamless, stress-free transaction for you.
Working with you as a seller, my goal is to sell your property quickly for the highest price possible. I do extensive research to be certain we price it correctly, and then do extensive marketing of it to the widest audience possible. I'll also work with you to suggest small updates, minimalizing, and staging ideas to attract as many buyers as possible to help them envision themselves living there.
When working with you as a buyer I'll guide you through the home buying process from start to finish. I'll carefully listen to your new home criteria and send you options that best suit your needs. Also, using my background in new construction, I can guide you through the process of building a home of your own.
In whichever direction I may assist you, I promise to work hard to ensure your trust. Know that I will be there for you every step of the way and value your business.”

MARKETING EXAMPLES
“Heather helped us navigate the sale of our home and the concurrent purchase of our new home. With Heather’s guidance we found a home that we loved and we’re under contract in just a few days. Next we worked together to sell our current home, and thanks to her efforts, we accepted an offer that exceeded our expectations one week later. Amazingly we were able to line up the closing dates and avoid any gaps in housing. Heather is a true professional and a trusted guide through a particularly fast-paced and intense real estate market. Highly recommend! ”
“Heather recently helped us buy our home in upstate New York under extremely challenging circumstances of COVID conditions and while we were stuck out of the Country working abroad. What was really appreciated was how Heather understood the needs of the situation and especially how she adjusted to the time zone difference, limitations on viewings, etc. Heather went above and beyond what was expected and made time to video call with us from the property, meet the Inspector and Appraisers, coordinate with the Attorneys and Mortgage company, and generally provided a life-line of thoughtful listening and advice throughout the entire process. She made a very difficult process seem simple and manageable, and provided professional service throughout. Highly recommended. ”
“Heather was great from the start. We called her late one afternoon to see a property and it was scheduled the same night. She really listened to what we wanted in a home and those properties were the only ones we visited, which dramatically reduced unnecessary tours. She negotiated in our best interest once we did offer and followed through all the way to closing. She has such a calm demeanor and follow through. This is the 8th house we have bought and sold. Best experience yet. ”
