Client Testimonials

★★★★★
"Paolo found me a great apartment a good deal on it. Really appreciated all his assistance, dramatically facilitated my move to NYC. Rather than going all over the city, the first place we went to was perfect, he helped me negotiate a good price on it." - Peter

"We could not be happier with our experience searching for purchasing a home with Paolo. As first time home buyers, we asked a lot of questions throughout the process he was always very patient with us. We were targeting the Lower East Side at first he knew the area extremely well. After finding our dream apartment in Tribeca, Paolo was there with us throughout the whole purchasing process - helping us with the board approval documents, recommending lawyers to work with, making sure we had everything we needed. The sellers agent said that this was the most pleasant closing she's ever been involved in!" - Karen
