Buying or renting a place can be incredibly stressful, but with The Finelli Team, all that anxiety is eliminated. James and Victoria are two gems in the world of realty. They have gone above and beyond in all aspects of my real estate wishes. They answer my emails and calls promptly and are ready to address any questions I have from documentation to general concerns in a timely and informative manner. Whether you are new to New York or a seasoned veteran, The Finelli Team is the ideal solution to your rental or buying needs.
-Prina P.

James has represented me for the sale of my 7-unit new condo development in Bed-Stuy. Due to his advisement, we were able to achieve the highest PPSF of any similar new dev in the neighborhood. He has contributed tremendously to the success of this project and I cannot thank him enough. Since then, I have given him several other projects including a multifamily building sale in Bushwick and my newest luxury condo building in Greenpoint. I highly recommend James and I look forward to working with him for many more years to come.
-Roei P.

I had the pleasure of working with James as my real estate broker, and I cannot recommend his services highly enough. From the very beginning, it was clear that I was in the hands of a professional. James got me an amazing deal on a condo in Williamsburg Brooklyn. A year later I decided to rent this condo and James was able to find a great tenant in a matter of days. If you're looking for a real estate broker who combines expertise, dedication, and a genuine passion for helping clients find their perfect home, I highly recommend him!
