I highly recommend working with Victoria! As first time home buyers in 2024, she walked us through the process every step of the way - from our very first showing request to our closing day. The search for a new home can be taxing and tumultuous, and I was always so relieved to have Victoria in my corner and only a phone call (or text) away at any time of day or night. Shes exceedingly prepared, professional, knowledgeable and responsive. In addition to her steadfast guidance, she was also a strong advocate for us and always took a stand for our best interests. Now, we have a beautiful first home, and were so grateful to Victoria for all her help in getting us here! 10/10.

I truly cannot speak any more highly of Victoria. From day one, her communication and knowledge were unparalleled. She was beyond thorough and gracious with her time with my parents and me. I can't recommend her enough, and I can't wait for more friends to be looking to buy because she's the greatest broker that's out there!! Thank you, Victoria, for helping to make a lifelong dream of mine come true! We're forever grateful!

Cliff did an excellent job in all aspects of my apartment purchase. A key thing was his ability to negotiate with the sellers broker---Cliff managed to get me back into a bidding process that had supposedly closed. He conducted a thorough final walkthrough that caught a few problems and then did the legwork that helped get me appropriate compensation. Cliff provided critical assistance with the Board application, the apartment inspection, and contractors. He was always available to answer questions and give explanations. He said from the start that he would be there for me throughout the whole process, and he delivered on that promise.

Having worked with other brokers in the past in New York City, my husband and I both agree that Rory is the best agent to work with. We feel lucky to have been able to work with Rory on our condominium sale during a tumultuous market in New York City. Rory and his team are true professionals and went above and beyond on many occasions. We first hired Rory and his team to represent our investment property ~8 years ago and it was the best decision we made in real estate. However big or small the question or issue that arose over the years, Rory was there for us ensuring we never had a vacancy. When it came time to prepare our apartment for sale, every detail was given the care it needed to ensure we sold our apartment for top dollar in a high interest rate environment. Rory oversaw the turn-around of the apartment to ensure it showed in its best light as a pristine move-in unit. When there were a couple of minor items he discovered before we listed the apartment, he gave us a strategy to overcome the issues with data to support it. The level of marketing was top shelf, combined with constant and thoughtful communications. As I was getting ready to call Rory to ask him to reduce the asking price, he called me with the incredible news that he had a nearly a full asking price all-cash offer! His patience yet aggressive marketing approach resulted in a sales price higher than we ever expected. We will definitely keep in touch with Rory and look forward to recommending him to all of our family and friends in need of a true real estate professional in New York City. We appreciate everything Rory did for us.

Rory was very helpful with selling my mother's coop apartment. He was responsive to our multiple questions, emails and calls. He kept us informed and he was always patient and professional. We felt that Rory was knowledgeable about the market. It was a pleasure working with Rory and we recommend him highly.

Victoria did a terrific job in helping me (as a first time buyer) negotiate price, determining need versus "nice to have", and pinpointing specific buildings and features, and her knowledge of the neighborhood helped me understand the ins and outs of buying in a co-op building. Victoria was extremely patient through an oftentimes challenging purchase and she was unafraid to ask for additional expertise within her office when needed. Victoria was amazingly responsive and extremely professional at all times. She made herself available for multiple viewings of different properties (often multiple times at the same property). In all we looked at 20-25 apartments and she was always a reliable sounding board for me. It was a pleasure to work with Victoria and I would recommend her highly to any friend or colleague looking for a reliable, professional, intelligent, and kind real estate agent in NYC.

If you're looking for a real estate agent in New York, you won't find a better one than Cliff Marks at Brown Harris Stevens. We recently bought a condo in Manhattan, and the quality of the service Cliff provided in handling everything start to finish was better than we could ever have expected. Within days of our retaining him, Cliff came up with almost two dozen properties that met the requirements we gave him, which were fairly extensive. We selected eight or ten of particular interest, and he arranged for us to see them all within a week. Once we selected an apartment, Cliff kept track of and managed all the necessary paperwork for us quickly and expeditiously, providing simple and clear explanations of what every document was for and what we were committed to by signing. The unit we eventually bought needed a fair amount of work done before we moved in. Cliff arranged much of it, choosing and dealing with contractors on our behalf. When, inevitably, problems arose with the work, Cliff intervened with the companies and made sure they were resolved (sometimes in situations where, had we dealt with the company on our own, we'd have likely been rebuffed or ignored). It's hard to imagine a more knowledgeable and attentive agent.

I can confidently say that Cliff is the best real estate broker around. He went above and beyond in every area from answering our phone calls while on the top of a ski slope on his vacation to meeting with painters while we were away to ensure we could get work done as soon as we closed. He helped us put together a beautiful board package and was available at all hours of the day to ensure that our process went smoothly and enjoyably. He even communicated with our rental management at the time. There were 4 of us as buyers (with my parents acting as co-purchasers), so Cliff had to manage an absurd amount of paperwork and interests. He was a calming and reassuring presence throughout, skillfully navigating many difficult personalities and the negotiating process, helping us to get our first choice apartment. He is exceptionally knowledgeable about the NYC market and all of the intricacies of the co-op (and condo) world. We truly enjoyed his company every step of the way. Hes so personable! All of his referrals were incredible, as well. We will undoubtably use him again when we eventually sell.

Victoria did an amazing job helping me find an apartment to rent in NYC. I was living in another state, flew in for 48 hours, and Victoria had tours lined up and a schedule of apartments in my price range and aesthetic. We narrowed down to 3 buildings and after I left Victoria worked tirelessly on an availablitly date for one of them and touring another one virtually for me. She is positive, proactive, and knowledgeable about NYC. She listened to what I liked and gave great advice when it came to choosing the right one. I would highly recommend her to anyone looking to rent or to buy.
