Real estate broker and former reality TV personality Sara Burack has died following a hit-and-run early Thursday morning in Hampton Bays, Southampton Town Police confirmed.

Burack, 40, was found unconscious in the roadway around 2:45 a.m. on Montauk Highway, near the Villa Paul Restaurant, that Thursday.

According to Southampton police, a 911 caller reported seeing a woman lying in the street. Officers arrived at the scene shortly after and discovered she had sustained severe injuries consistent with being struck by a vehicle that had fled the area.

Emergency medical personnel from Hampton Bays Volunteer Ambulance responded and transported the victim to Stony Brook University Hospital. Despite efforts to save her, she succumbed to her injuries later that day.

Meanwhile, at the time of the incident, police were unable to identify the woman due to the severity of her condition. However, by late Thursday afternoon, authorities confirmed the victim as Sara Burack, a Southampton resident.

Burack was best known for her successful career in luxury real estate and her appearance on the Netflix reality series “Million Dollar Beach House” which followed a team of elite realtors navigating high-stakes property deals in the Hamptons.

She had previously worked with Nest Seekers International and was widely recognized in both the New York City and Hamptons real estate markets.

Following the announcement of her death, tributes poured in across social media. One of the most poignant came from her close friend, Paulette Orlando-Corsair, who posted a heartfelt message recalling Burack’s vibrant personality and the painful final moments of her life:

“My dear Sara Burack, my beautiful friend. I will remember you like you were in this photo. One of the real last times we went out before things turned for the worse. I did everything in my power to get u better. I told u I would be there til the end & I held that promise to u.”

She also recounted how Burack was rushed to the hospital with devastating injuries to her head, brain, liver, and leg, and how doctors determined that nothing more could be done.

“You were kind, generous, funny & full of life & drama. We loved her the way she was, all of it,” She added.

The post described a deep sense of loss and a promise to organize a memorial in the Hamptons for friends and loved ones to honor Burack’s life.

Meanwhile, Southampton Town Police Detectives and the New York State Police Accident Reconstruction Unit say the investigation is ongoing.
