What the Clients are Saying

"Bahar is incredibly sophisticated, in the way she does her marketing, in the way she conducts herself. There is psychology involved." - Parent, Manhattan Private School

"Bahar brought the art and science of real estate. The art of the eyes of a very accomplished high-taste woman to the deal and the science was the data of a very educated and practical thinking woman." - Partner, Top National Law Firm

"I really think Bahar has a magic touch. If it wasn't for her, we wouldn't have that place. There is something of substance to her that I have't found in other realtors." - Parent, Manhattan Private School

"She takes the time to understand what the buyers are going to think. She invested a lot of time upfront and that pays dividends." - Partner, Private Equity , NYC

"I was blown away by Bahar's ability to communicate her ideas, her vision. She is very systematic she has a very scientific approach to her job; which, for me as a seller, was very comforting especially in the market at that time. The way she communicates gives me great confidence." - Partner, Top National Law Firm

"Dear Bahar, when I think of things for which I’m grateful in this sobering year, you are at the top of the list. Thank you for coming into a delicate familial situation with grace, sensitivity and intelligence – figuring out why our beautiful apartment hadn’t sold and working with me to turn things around. Selling our home was one of the bright spots of the year for me, and working with you was pure pleasure. Your grace and professionalism were stunning and the results couldn’t have been more quick or compelling. I’m incredibly grateful to you." - By Author & Screenwriter, Manhattan, NY
