"From the very beginning of our experience with Saul my husband and I were struck by how comfortable he made us feel and his overall attentiveness. In looking for our "forever home" (and first non-apartment home), we had a lot of questions, criteria, excitement, and anxiety all happening at once. Saul put us at ease and walked us through every stage of the process. He listened carefully to our preferences and must-haves and answered all of our questions. He came with us to countless open houses and viewings, perceptively giving us time to process, calibrate, and discuss as a couple and then all together. It's also worth mentioning that we worked with him on our home search in Brooklyn from December 2020 to July 2021, one of the lowest inventory times in recent history in this area and a period of time in which COVID-19 made seeing places particularly difficult. Despite this, Saul managed to find and show us every available home on the market that met our criteria. Within what sometimes seemed like seconds of a place coming on the market, he made us aware. Ultimately, he helped us find the townhouse of our dreams in an ideal location. On top of helping us navigate every up and down of the second half of the process leading to closing, Saul was connecting us with painters, cleaners, and more. Patient, perceptive, respectful, easy to talk to, and proactively helpful---Saul was a joy to work with and we can't recommend him enough"

"I was referred to Saul Shapiro by another accomplished realtor whom I trusted and I am glad I followed that advice. Saul turned out to be exactly what I needed. I was nervous about selling my 1 bedroom cooperative apartment in Brooklyn given the state of the City, so I felt the role of my realtor would be even more important than usual. Saul delivered. He was very patient, which is important because I take a long time to research and consider every option. Saul guided me through the process, advising me on what renovations I should have done. He also was able to find a good staging company that was reasonably priced. The advertisement, including professional photography, was crisp and perfectly appropriate for my unit and it definitely generated immediate inquiries and visits from serious buyers. After a very thorough period of preparation, Saul timed the placing of my apartment on the market with thoughtfulness and patience. I had a full-ask offer in 6 days. Daniel K. | Seller

" Saul and I have worked together in the music business for over 15 years
and in that time he’s not only been a colleague but a friend. I was already
familiar with his salesmanship skills and his forte at building
relationships, so he was the perfect choice as my agent when we our
West Village apartment."

" Saul was the partner we always hoped a broker could be. Expertly and calmly guiding us through a challenging pandemic sale, he got us what we wanted, doing so with grace and humility. No effort was too small or phone call too dumb. We’re happy to now count Saul among our friends."

" Finding an apartment in Greenpoint was not an easy task during the market boom in 2021, but thanks to Saul my experience was extremely positive! Saul immediately understood my needs and he definitely didn't waste my time. Thanks to Saul the entire process went very smooth and I'm so happy to be in my new Greenpoint apartment! If you are looking to buy or rent, I highly recommend to contact Saul, he is very professional and fun to work with!"
