Testimonials

⭑⭑⭑⭑⭑ 

Mike Davis sold my Brooklyn Heights Coop in record time -- for 23% *ABOVE* the asking price. Mike advised us on minor staging tips to our home and laid out a strategy. It all worked to create a bidding war and drove up our price. Mike secured the best possible deal and we closed on a timeline that worked for us and our wonderful new buyer. Mike is an amazing broker and truly knows the NY City market.

Mike Davis helped my family search for and purchase a dreamy townhouse in Prospect Heights. The process was beyond successful, although never racking (not Mike's fault -- NYC is crazy). Mike worked on our schedule and worked miracles. He went above and beyond to assist us in understanding life in Brooklyn starting with the school system and our options, market value, transportation, cost of living, etc.  When it came time for closing he helped push us through the obstacles.

Mike Davis is the best real estate agent this side of the Mississippi. He helped my family buy an amazing Brownstone in 2021. He made the process not only educational but fun! AND he just rented our property for an amazing price in exactly 2 days with multiple applications.
