★★★★★
"We had an enjoyable experience in our journey in finding our home in Manhattan. We owe this to our real estate broker, Jill Damico at Compass. Jill’s mix of professionalism and genuine friendliness is hard to beat. Working with her was actually fun and laid back. (Sometimes hard to imagine in Manhattan!) In addition, the pace during the whole process from touring listings to our eventual closing was never rushed. Our concerns and interests were always the focus. Jill and her partner Elkin were our incredible advocates all the way through closing and helping complete the punchlist with the builder. We would recommend Jill to all our friends and family. She exemplifies overall excellence as a real estate broker. Kudos, Jill!"-Sushil & Ethel S.

★★★★★
"Jill was absolutely fantastic to work with. After using her 3 years before to find renters for my apartment, she was the only person I thought of when I decided to move forward with selling my apartment. Not only was she incredibly knowledgeable throughout the entire sales process, she also was a calming presence helping answer all of the many questions I had, which were many. She helped me understand the differences between the offers I received and helped me close on the apartment in what I felt was record time with a price that I was more than happy with especially given the current environment and competition. Having Jill as part of my sales team was like having an extension of the family helping along the way, someone who was always available to help and who made what typically is a stressful process a relatively painless one. The biggest praise I can give is that if anyone would be looking to buy, sell, or rent an apartment in New York City, Jill would be the first and ONLY agent that I would recommend."-Erik S.

★★★★★
"Jill went above and beyond from day 1. I contacted her last summer saying that I would be interested in buying some time in the next year. She followed up with me and patiently answered every question I had about buying for the first time in NYC. We went to see several homes before I found my dream home. She put in an offer for me on the same day. What really stood out for me with Jill was her attentiveness and responsiveness to my questions and concerns; her professionalism in dealing with lawyers and sellers and sellers' brokers; and her honest, straightforward impressions about the properties we saw. She was also a great negotiator, really impressive! I will be recommending Jill highly to anyone I know who is buying in New York and will be contacting her for my next property purchase. A+"-Jeff W.

★★★★★
"Jill was extremely patient and personable with us as we started the process of finding an apartment in the midst of a pandemic. What made the process even more difficult for Jill was that we didn't live in the same state. She worked the schedule to our convenience and showed us multiple apartments during every trip. Jill made the closing process very palatable, introducing us to various professionals and walking us through the New York City procedural nuances, including the Board approval process. We wish her every success that she richly deserves."-Sam G.

★★★★★
"Jill was our broker for buying one apartment selling another. We have worked with many brokers, Jill is one of a kind. Not only is she affable, available, professional, knowledgeable, she far exceeded our expectations. For example, her negotiating was creative insightful to the point where we attest the smooth success of all transactions entirely to her. She also brings along a network of highly qualified related professionals. We will never work with any other broker, ever." - Katherine A. & Hugh H.

★★★★★
"My daughter I worked with Jill to sell our co-op apartment, we are very thankful for her help. We had already moved out of NY when we decided to put the apt up for sale, there is a 12 hour time difference between my daughter I. We were definitely a handful, but Jill was excellent in managing the whole affair and never complained about the extra work. When trying to decide on a realtor, we reached out to three different agents- it was pretty clear, in comparison, that Jill put in a lot more effort in generating market analysis to help us decide at what price we should list. She was honest and came up with a great marketing strategy. She also helped us stage our apartment, which turned out looking fantastic under her care. Everyone she recommended us to work with, from the cleaning crew to the lawyers were all very professional. She was always responsive to text and emails. We ended up receiving an offer higher than our asking price. I honestly don't think we could have had as much success if we had gone with anyone else, and we'd highly recommend working with Jill as an agent.-Alice L.

★★★★★
"We wholeheartedly recommend Jill as a real estate professional. She was instrumental in making our first home purchase in New York possible. As foreigners, we required someone who could help make the process as smooth as possible. Jill was highly knowledgable, very responsive and kept us informed and guided at all stages. She always went above and beyond. She also connected us with a fantastic real estate attorney for the buying process and a painter to make our new home look beautiful. In this industry, it's not easy finding someone like Jill. She is highly capable, trustworthy and friendly. We look forward to working with her again."-Hannah P.

★★★★★
"Purchasing a condo in Manhattan while I am living in Michigan required a real estate agent with excellent communication skills, market knowledge and clear guidance. I got all that and more and feel fortunate to have gotten Jill as my agent. She was very thorough, made excellent suggestions regarding my offer and a joy to with whom to work. I’m very happy with my purchase!-Sarah E.
