"Emily Penn is the most caring, amazing, and wonderful real estate agent one could ever hope for! Her ongoing search for apartments in Manhattan is refined and tailored to exactly what one is looking for. She asked us great questions and found many properties that suited our needs - both in appropriate sized rooms, neighborhood, proximity to Central Park, and those within our price range. Beyond that, she has been there every step of the way, with sage advice and referrals to her wide network of excellent architects, contractors, lawyers, best mortgage banks, and moving companies. She and her team are knowledgeable experts - even helping us figure out our financials, and so many more details one needs to navigate the real estate process in New York City. Also, six years ago she found the perfect apartment for our daughter and son-in-law. The location near our daughter's medical practice was amazing. The grandkids are growing up in a wonderful environment of museums, schools, and cosmopolitan culture balanced with trees, playgrounds, and wide meadows for them to be close to nature. You also couldn't find a friendlier real estate agent, to shepherd your search and come up with creative solutions for your particular needs. Emily Penn is simply the best; and Magnitudes beyond the rest." -Kim, Buyer

"“I’ve known Emily as a caring mother before she listed my home. I spoke to her former clients that gave her outstanding reviews. I felt 100% confident she would have my best interest at heart. I also felt we priced my apt at the right # and the first weekend we had our buyer. She was very patient dealing with everything/everyone involved. A true professional!” " -Linda, Seller

★★★★★
"“I worked with Emily to purchase an apartment earlier this year. We worked together for about six months. Throughout the process she was very professional and communicative. She also offered insights that I would have missed as a first time home buyer. I appreciated that she was very organized and shared deadlines. The coop purchase process was not so difficult with Emily. She was there for any concerns and questions and a pleasure to work with.”" -Young-Hee, Buyer

"“Finding an apartment in NYC seemed beyond daunting, but this week we are happily closing on our dream home, thanks to our exceptional broker, Emily Penn. Emily listened, really listened, to who we are and what we wanted. She cheerfully accompanied us on so many visits, helping us ask the right questions, homing in on the practical details we needed to make the decision right for us. She connected us with a lawyer, mortgage broker, architect, contractor, insurer, mover – who all made us their priority and to a person, told us how much they respected Emily's skills and integrity. Emily has been with us every step of the way. Experienced, patient and incredibly astute about New York real estate, you will not find a more knowledgeable, focused and caring agent than Emily Penn.”" -Iris, Buyer

"Thank you so much for all the great work you did to help us find an apartment. You listened carefully to our wants and needs and were able to find places that matched our wishes perfectly. You came up with so many viable listings, booked appointments that accommodated our schedules, and then accompanied us on our many apartment visits, making sure we saw all we needed to make a good decision. You offered great suggestions for the other professionals we'd need to complete a purchase – from architects, contractors, real estate lawyers, and mortgage banks. You even helped walk us through all the paperwork we had to fill out to move forward. Always reachable, you have been there for us every step of the way. You are like a full-service company in one person! We so appreciate all you have done to help us realize our dreams and will be recommending you to our friends. In fact, we are already looking forward to our next adventure together (we know you are the perfect person to help our daughter's family find their next home!)" -Iris C. and Kim D.

"Buying or selling real estate in NYC can be an intimidating experience. It’s a complicated and nuanced process that can exhaust even seasoned professionals. I was very fortunate to have Emily Lewis Penn represent me on both the sale and purchase of my apartment. She made both transactions easy. She listened very carefully to my concerns and always responded immediately to questions. She was keenly aware of market conditions and price trends. She understood the details of particular buildings and neighborhoods. Once we were in contract, she managed expectations and shepherded the deal through the closing. Working with Emily was a pleasure and I would highly recommend her to anyone who wants no drama and an honest smart professional." -Merle B.

★★★★★
"Emily Penn helped us sell two very different properties, a two-bedroom apartment that was our residence and a studio I used as my professional office. Emily was clear sighted, pragmatic and well informed about the kinds of buyers likely to be interested in each apartment. She encouraged us to price the apartments realistically and was both flexible and tireless in figuring out the best time to bring potential buyers to see the apartments at times that worked for us. The apartments sold quickly at what we thought were very good prices. The closing could not have gone more smoothly. Emily had a thorough understanding of all the documents needed, not just by us, but by the buyers. Everything went off without a hitch. Above all, Emily is warm, humane and tactful. She is genuinely interested in her clients’ needs and realistic about the goals of potential buyers. My husband and I have whole heartedly recommended her to friends and will continue to do so." -Rosemary M.
