"Marc is everything anyone could ever want in an agent. His knowledge and experience of the NYC market and is unparalleled, as is his professionalism. He has an instinct when it comes to buying / selling in the area that cannot be taught, and he is simply a joy to be around. He is extremely dedicated to his clients and always quick to respond. He is thoughtful when dealing with challenges or issues having to do with the process, and always makes an educated recommendation with how to deal with any that may arise. We trusted him completely with listing and selling our apartment and helping us buy in a new-to-us area. We cannot recommend him enough!" - Allison Koehler
"Marc breaks the mold of real estate agents in the absolute most refreshing way possible. New York is one of the most intimidating markets to buy and rent in and for a year, he helped my husband and I patiently, hand in hand, every step of the way to find our dream home. He always made himself available and went above and beyond for us. Our favorite quality about Marc is how genuine and authentic he was throughout this process. We never felt pressure from him, even with our long list of must haves and non negotiable points when looking for a home." - Jenny & Freddie Cipoletti
"Marc is a wonderful agent. He worked with us for months as we narrowed in on what kind of home we were looking for. We never felt pressured being around him. He guided us and flowed in the direction of our tastes. We are in love with our new home and are very thankful to have had Marc with us through this process. " - Leah Goudsmit
"Marc was responsive and level headed during a negotiation that could easily have gone sideways. I consider him a valuable asset and would highly recommend him to anyone looking to buy real estate." - Susanne & Molly Osberg
"I would absolutely recommend Marc. He is available and responsive without being pushy. It was a great experience working with him. When it came time to make an offer Marc was the key factor of having our offer accepted." - Rachael Laumann & Andrew Levinson
"Marc is an amazing agent. He helped us buy and sell a condo in Chelsea and was always available to help answer questions, assist with staging, advise with price etc. He walked us through the entire buying and selling process. He made the whole process much lower stress than it would have been. We would have been lost without him!! We will be thrilled to work with him again in the future should the need arise." - Lena & Dan Baram
"Marc is a phenomenal agent . He made a plan and executed on every part of it . He knew the market and what it would take to sell. We had an all cash offer after 1 and closed in record time a NYC coop. He handled everything with a professional attitude. Highly recommend!" - Dana Bianco
"Smart/efficient/dependable/highly recommended.. Marc started off with a brief to assist me re: potential condo purchase during a one week trip to NYC. He was able to efficiently search and guide me towards successfully purchasing my condo in manhattan. He is not well-versed in his trade; but i also found him accessible/ responsive/ and effective at meeting key objectives." - Michael Lee
"Marc was a huge help in finding my apartment in NYC. The market was a little overwhelming an out-of-towner, but felt well informed and in good hands with Marc. I would highly recommend him to anybody looking for a new place in the city." - Sean Sturm
"Marc is the man. I spent 9 months looking for the perfect place with him. He took me through all the neighborhoods I was interested while always considering my needs and the many variables we aligned on (common charge prices, amenities, transportation). We never wasted time visiting places not worth my attention. He's a really smart agent who also can not help you find the right home, but also the right investment if you're looking to buy. He also happens to be one of the most genuine and kind people I've ever met in this crazy city. I will continue to refer to him when looking a place." - Tim Masek
"I cannot recommend Marc enough. He has worked with me both on finding a renter my coop and then a few years later, selling my property. Through most of the process I was living 3000 miles away and he handled everything. Through both experiences we had many challenges - prospective tenants/buyers fall through, etc. but Marc worked tirelessly to list, show, and deal with every step in the process. (And my property was a 5th floor walkup so tirelessly took on a new meaning with Marc and his team!) He was extremely responsive, always positive (and helped me get positive when I wasn't!), he worked above and beyond with the property manager, the renter's/seller's broker and lawyer, etc. He made a stressful and difficult process enjoyable. Oh and I should mention that he got a record price my coop apartment - higher than our original asking price and a high price my property (I'm pretty sure it was a record.) Again, I can't say enough to recommend Marc. I hope to work with him again in the future.
" - Laura Livant
"Marc, just wanted to say THANK YOU again so much everything you've done us in the past few months. It's been an absolute pleasure working with you and you made our first home buying experience straightforward and even fun. We're thrilled with the apartment and we especially appreciate your expert advice on putting in the offer and your handing of complicated schedules.
We won't hesitate to recommend you to anyone else who is looking for an apartment, and thank you again.
Stay tuned for housewarming party details!" - Emily
