About Zsolt
Zsolt’s 17 years of experience as a New York City real estate broker is fueled by his passion and dedication to curate the market for the perfect home to suit his most discerning clients. His clients include first time buyers, clients looking to upgrade their homes, sellers, investors, and renters. He specializes in Downtown Manhattan, where he takes pride in finding unique lofts, brownstones and high-end apartments for rent or for sale. His loyal client base often refer clients to him, which he views as the highest honor in the business.

He distinguishes himself from other brokers with his years of experience, including leading several complex multi-million dollar transactions and handling 1031 exchange deals, thoughtful negotiation skills, client-first approach, and in-depth knowledge of today’s market trends. He understands that each deal and each client requires their own customized approach. He listens and strategizes with his clients to ensure he delivers outstanding service and presents the best in the marketplace to cater to his client’s needs.

His prior career as a professional music photographer has given him the privilege to tour the world and photograph rockstars such as The Rolling Stones, Madonna, Sting, David Bowie, etc. He views buying and selling your home through the same lens that he used to shoot these musicians - for sellers that means displaying your prized home in the best light and angle, and for buyers that means understanding the vision for your space and habitat.

He is a 30 year resident of New York City and currently resides in Brooklyn Heights. He loves to return home to his European roots and explore all corners of the world with his wife and young son.
