Licensed Real Estate Salesperson | HomeSmart Diamond Club
“Clear Vision for Your Real Estate Success”
Shira Benedetto, M.A. is more than a licensed real estate agent — she is a strategic partner, intuitive guide, and fierce advocate for her clients' success. A lifelong Long Island resident with a background in corporate leadership, spiritual service, and elite sales strategy, Shira brings a unique blend of business acumen and heartfelt intuition to every transaction.
A top-producing agent at HomeSmart Premier Living Realty, Shira was honored with the 2023 Diamond Award Rookie of the Year, quickly establishing herself as a rising leader in Long Island’s luxury home market. Her listing in South Merrick attracted 17 offers and sold for $205,000 over asking — all within one weekend. This success is no accident — it’s the result of meticulous marketing, buyer psychology expertise, and deeply attuned intuition that guides every step.
Before real estate, Shira served as a Senior National Sales Trainer, Pre-Sales Team Leader, and Executive Assistant to NYC’s top middle-market lender. She also built a nationally recognized intuitive consulting business, helping clients navigate everything from loss and transition to life decisions and business strategy. Her unique gift for future-pacing and reading people has made her a trusted guide not only for home buyers and sellers — but for individuals, families, and entrepreneurs across the country.
Shira’s intuitive talents have been recognized widely: she’s worked with families of missing persons, been honored by Bethany House as the 2018 Outstanding Woman of Compassion, and received a Proclamation from Senator Todd Kaminsky for her humanitarian efforts. She’s been nominated year after year by Best of Long Island for her intuitive and spiritual contributions.
A graduate of NYIT with a Master’s degree with distinction, Shira also holds certifications as a Reiki Master, Reconnective Healing Practitioner, and Intuitive Medium. She is well known for her accurate world event predictions, including her early insights about the 2020 global pandemic.
Clients describe Shira as optimistic, creative, relentless, and deeply committed to their success. Whether preparing a million-dollar property for market or helping buyers secure their dream home in a competitive field, Shira combines clear strategy with heart-centered service. Every step of the home selling or buying journey is tailored to meet her clients' unique needs, blending strategic expertise with emotional intelligence to make the process seamless and successful.
When she’s not selling homes, Shira treasures time with her daughter, enjoys beach walks, energy healing, indoor cycling, family dinners, decorating home spaces, and playing with her teacup puppy and kitten.
