"My wife and I have had the pleasure of working with Augusto and Jared on three occasions (2 purchases & 1 sale, all in Brooklyn). During both searches (which were lengthy) Augusto and Jared were extremely patient and helped educate us and provide advice along the way, until we ultimately found what fit our needs and desires. They are experts on pricing and purchase/sales negotiations and all three transactions were incredibly smooth. Most importantly, they are both great individuals, and we know that if we're in the market again we won't question who we will be working with."

Paul Bienstock
Citi - Director, Clean Energy Finance

"As an avid real estate investor who has worked with brokers throughout the world, I can attest that Augusto is among the top professionals I've crossed paths with. New York City is a unique market and Augusto was able to make our transaction as smooth as possible, quickly solving every issue we faced with a positive outcome. He works out of the box to achieve the best results and is extremely assertive. From the beginning until the end, he couldn't have delivered a better result from buying our investment property for a great value to renting it in just a few days in a slow rental market. This talks for itself.."
