“I knew that I wanted to work with Kelly to sell my place from the moment I received a handwritten note from her inquiring about my apartment after I had taken it off the market after an unsuccessful run with another broker. We met and it was a no-pressure discussion with Kelly’s suggestions on how best to show the space and how her group would market it. Kelly is accessible, responsive, creative, and soothing all at the same time. I used her staging service, and I almost didn’t recognize my apartment when I first saw it. Her team did an amazing job decorating and filling the space tastefully and attractively. Kelly also advised on some cosmetic upgrades which made perfect sense.

“From the start of our search for a NY apartment to purchase, Kelly was personable, punctual and a delight to work with. She went out of her way to give us all the information we needed and answered my many, many emails within minutes. Knowing that we really wanted a Greenwich Village location, since our son is a grad student at NYU, Kelly efficiently found just the right place for our family’s budget and lifestyle. Because our drive to NYC takes 2.5 hours (from our PA home), Kelly set up our appointments so that we could swiftly move from one viewing to the next, and on several occasions, she rearranged her schedule so that we could head back home before NY rush hour. When my husband and I felt overwhelmed by the red tape, paperwork and personal intrusion involved in buying a co-op, Kelly offered to do, and did much of the legwork for us. She made the complicated process much easier. She later sold our home for a record price! Kelly Robinson is truly a valuable and unique asset.” – Melanie F.
