"I had the pleasure of working with Brian Gay to purchase my first home and could not speak more highly of him. Brian quickly understood what I was looking for and was a wonderful partner throughout the entire process. As a first time homebuyer, I especially appreciated how thorough and responsive Brian was with any questions that I had along the way. There’s no one else I would call for future real estate needs in the city. Thank you, Brian!"

"David & Brian were recommended by our friends who recently sold their apartment in the upper east side with their help. When we met them for the first time it was an easy & instant decision to bring them into to our quest of selling our home. They had such great energy, expansive knowledge of the current market & and insightful strategy of attracting the public interest. They listened to our wants & needs & helped us get over our concerns all the way to the end. They were super responsive & attentive and made us feel like we were their only clients. We cannot say enough nice things about them! If we want to sell or buy another property we would not hesitate to call them again!"

"My wife and I found our new home in NYC with David and Brian. They took us through the whole process; found us the right lawyers, inspectors, and contractor, and walked us through the complexities of NY real estate every step. We are happily enjoying this next adventure in our beautiful apartment home and when the next adventure comes up, they will be the first call we make."
