"Buying or selling real estate in NYC can be an intimidating experience. It’s a complicated and nuanced process that can exhaust even seasoned professionals. I was very fortunate to have Emily Lewis Penn represent me on both the sale and purchase of my apartment. She made both transactions easy. She listened very carefully to my concerns and always responded immediately to questions. She was keenly aware of market conditions and price trends. She understood the details of particular buildings and neighborhoods. Once we were in contract, she managed expectations and shepherded the deal through the closing. Working with Emily was a pleasure and I would highly recommend her to anyone who wants no drama and an honest smart professional." -Merle B.

★★★★★
"Emily Penn helped us sell two very different properties, a two-bedroom apartment that was our residence and a studio I used as my professional office. Emily was clear sighted, pragmatic and well informed about the kinds of buyers likely to be interested in each apartment. She encouraged us to price the apartments realistically and was both flexible and tireless in figuring out the best time to bring potential buyers to see the apartments at times that worked for us. The apartments sold quickly at what we thought were very good prices. The closing could not have gone more smoothly. Emily had a thorough understanding of all the documents needed, not just by us, but by the buyers. Everything went off without a hitch. Above all, Emily is warm, humane and tactful. She is genuinely interested in her clients’ needs and realistic about the goals of potential buyers. My husband and I have whole heartedly recommended her to friends and will continue to do so." -Rosemary M.
