Client Testimonials

★★★★★
"David is very knowledgeable about downtown sales and rentals. He's a great broker, and a nice guy. He's able to help his clients get a great price. He helped us buy two condos and his access, his availability and responsiveness were key. He also helped us rent our place multiple times. His advice matters. We highly recommend David." - Rebecca L.

★★★★★
"Until I met David, I’d argue that this would be an oxymoron. David is the only “smart honest broker” in the city. He is also a nice and respectful guy who I now consider a true friend. He is creative and solves problems while maintaining his fiduciary responsibilities. He calms buyers, provides solutions when there is an impasse, recommends excellent attorneys, contractors, financing options with his contacts and has unique financial knowledge most brokers aren’t aware of. I highly recommend him as a buyer, seller, or dual broker, he always does the right thing and does his job well with true integrity." - Jonathan P.

★★★★★
"As an attorney and a RE Broker myself, I have to say that David is the best broker I have ever dealt with!
