ZillowVERIFIED Hillel found us our dream apartment. He is always available and goes above and beyond his job. He wont stop until you find what you want. His knowledge of the market and so many little details earns him a 6 out of 5 rating (essentially an A+).

ZillowVERIFIED This spring I had the pleasure of working with Hillel Fried. I feel lucky to have stumbled upon him early on in my search for a home in NYC and quickly enlisted him as my agent. He dedicated serious time and miles in my search. He took time to get to know me so that he could best advise which properties would be a good match. As we looked at each property, he had a sharp eye for pros/cons and he drew my attention to these features. Hillel has in depth knowledge of real estate in NYC and he also knows the neighborhoods very well. He truly is driven to pair people with a home that they will love. He thoroughly searched comparables to make sure we negotiated a good, fair deal. He is a perfect professional with a warm, personable demeanor. I highly recommend Hillel.

ZillowVERIFIED Hillel Fried is a great professional, who over a period of a few weeks became a very close friend and guide to my wife and I, even as we searched for a Manhattan apartment for ourselves. For starters, this was no easy task because we were just returning from an overseas assignment, I was transiting to a retirement of sorts, and our financial affairs were, to put it mildly, in some disarray! We came upon HiIlel as we looked in on a co-op, having just been outbid on another where we were left feeling the realtor had let us down (showing not enough interest or energy on our behalf, and keeping us under-informed)y. Right from the start, Hillel struck us as extremely friendly, highly knowledgeable about the city and various streets and buildings, and more than willing to happily put in some serious hard work on our behalf . Most importantly he turned out to be someone who cares deeply about the customer, going to great lengths to fully understand our needs and requirements, and providing a level of input and feedback that was absolutely spot on to manage our interests and anxieties. If anybody is looking for a high-energy, extremely friendly, exceptionally knowledgeable, never-give-up realtor who will go all out for them, Hillel is it!. We have absolutely no hesitation in recommending him in the strongest possible way. Good luck to you going forward Hillel, and we do look forward to staying in touch, making as many referrals to you from our friends as we possibly can !!

ZillowVERIFIED To Whom It May Concern, It is with immense gratitude and enthusiasm that I write this letter of recommendation for Hillel Reid, whose professionalism, dedication, and thoughtfulness were key in the successful sale of my apartment. I met Hillel by chance over two years ago when he was showing an apartment in my building. During a casual conversation, I mentioned my interest in having my apartment appraised. From that moment, Hillel made sure to stay in touch, always courteous and helpful, even as time passed without any immediate plans to sell. Then, one dayaEUR"just when I was in real need of sellingaEUR"Hillel reached out with impeccable timing. He had identified the perfect buyer for my apartment and wanted to know if I was considering selling. At first, I was hesitant. Selling my apartment was a difficult decision, not just financially but emotionally, as it had been my home for many years. However, Hillels thoughtful approach and understanding made all the difference. The buyer he had found was ideal, even offering above the market price with the contingency of selling her own home first. Though this introduced some delays, Hillel guided us through every step with patience, diligence, and creative solutions to the challenges that can arise when selling an older co-op apartment in New York City. Hillels professionalism was exceptional. Despite his role as a dual agent in the transaction, I always felt fully protected. He was transparent, representing our interests with care and integrity, while ensuring both parties felt confident and secure. His advice was invaluable, and his rate was below the market standardaEUR"a testament to his commitment to providing outstanding service without compromise. From our first conversation to the day of closing, Hillel was by our side, making a challenging process smooth and successful. Thanks to his expertise and persistence, I was able to make a tough decision that ultimately proved to be the best one for me. I cannot thank him enough for his guidance and support, and I wholeheartedly recommend him to anyone in need of a skilled, trustworthy, and compassionate real estate agent. Sincerely, Guidette Laracuente and Alan Loveder

ZillowVERIFIED Hillel was great. His knowledge and experience in this market cant be beat. He was the most responsive agent Ive ever worked with and I trust him implicitly. We purchased a co-op in the Lincoln Square area. Never having bought co-op before, we were faced with many new requirements and Hillel guided us through the process. We couldnt have done it on our own. Plus hes a very cool dude.

ZillowVERIFIED I am happy to write this letter of recommendation for Hillel Fried of Compass realty. I met Hillel via Streeteasy and it was immediately clear to me I could work with him. He is extremely knowledgeable about NYC real estate and was receptive to my aEURoewantsaEUR? for a city apt to buy. They were not few, I might add. I required light, quiet, south exposure, full size frig, small building on the upper east side with laundry room. Moreover, I had my heart set on one particular building. He showed me two apts in aEURoemy buildingaEUR? and neither felt like it could be my home. ButaEUR|.he knew of apt that owners were thinking of selling their apt which was EXACTLY what I wanted. He arranged for viewing, orchestrated deal and did a great job representing me. In summary, Hillel is personable but not pushy in any way and most importantly knows the inventory. I recommend him with highest enthusiasm. I hope you have as easy time of finding your apt as I did with Hillel.

ZillowVERIFIED Hillel is a hard worker. He is knowledgeable, kind, and easy to work with. The sellers of my home had accepted an offer before I had a chance to make mine. Hillel was able to negotiate a deal with the seller, so they ended up accepting my offer instead of the previously accepted one. I am now writing this review from my living room. I would work with Hillel again, any time.

ZillowVERIFIED Hillel is absolutely outstanding at his job. I have no hesitation in recommending him to anyone needing help with a buy, sell or rent real estate transaction. He is highly knowledgeable, extremely professional, a very responsive and timely communicator, and overall a super pleasant and nice individual. He understands the customer's needs and is willing to go the extra mile. I was out of the country for part of the time during our transaction, and Hillel never missed a beat, always kept me informed, and worked hard to represent our interests. He spotted a problem during the pre-closing walk-through, and helped us to get it documented and taken care of by the sellerI honestly cannot imagine a better person to have guided me through the purchase of a coop. I will be away again for part of the time that the unit will be renovated before mpve-in, and Hillel has spontaneously offered to help with supervising the contractor's work in my absence. This is above and beyond the call of duty! I am very impressed by his professionalism and his kindness.I feel very fortunate that I found Hillel by chance through an online real estate site. Do reach out to him and you will be glad you did!!

ZillowVERIFIED As first-time homebuyers, my wife and I were looking for someone who--above all else--we could trust and who would have the patience to understand our concerns. Hill fit that bill perfectly! From the moment we met him, he was dead honest in his opinions, yet absolutely respectful and polite. His advice was always spot-on and clear; indeed, he never shied away from challenging some our own preconceptions about our "ideal home." Hill was clearly invested in making sure that the home buying process was as easy as possible. Whenever we had questions, we would send him an email or text, and he ALWAYS RESPONDED in a timely fashion--sometimes even late after midnight. He's truly a dedicated realtor and guide. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend him!

ZillowVERIFIED Responded quickly to every call and we felt that our best interests were always the most important issue. Multiple offers were presented and Hillel spent a good deal of time helping us evaluate and choose the best offer for us -- not necessarily the one that would result in the highest commission to the broker. Totally satisfied.

When our bid was not accepted he came up with a solution that sealed the deal. Hillel is responsive, intelligent, kind, thorough and a true professional.

ZillowVERIFIED Hillel was outstanding from the first phone call. I initially connected with him after inquiring about an advertisement on Zillow. I was extremely surprised to receive a phone call within minutes at 10pm on a Saturday night, but with Hillel, after working with him a bit, nothing surprised me about his customer focused approach. With every interaction he was responsive, extremely knowledgeable, respectful and was always conscientious about understanding my criteria and desires regarding location, size of unit, amenities, etc. I could not have been happier with the outcome and the process from beginning to end. I highly recommend Hillel if you are interested in purchasing, selling or renting a place in NYC.

ZillowVERIFIED This experience was my first at buying and I could not recommend Hill enough. He was an incredible realtor - he was patient with me and the process - and knew exactly what I was looking for and needed in my new home. Hill hustled and worked endlessly to ensure I got through the COOP process. His follow-up was thorough and kept me on top of what I needed to do in a timely fashion. I would definitely use Hill again for any future selling/buying needs. Go with Hill and you will find he delivers some of the best service you can expect in NYC.

ZillowVERIFIED We are experienced buyers in Westchester County, but first time buyers in NYC and Hillel was helpful in every way. Since we purchased from a sponsor (an apartment-turned-condo unit), there was no negotiation, but Hillel was always quick to answer questions and responsive to our needs. He's young, easy to talk to, and willing agent.
