Jeff Handwerger

JEFF HANDwerger loves real estate, fine architecture and negotiating the best possible deal for his clients.  His experience runs from real estate development, construction management and real estate appraisal.  He is extensively networked with developers, seller and other agents.  Approximately 30% of Jeff's transactions are off-market and never find their way on to the public internet.

BORN THIS WAY . . . 

Perspicacious is an excellent word to describe Jeff HANDwerger. His vision of potential in both property and in people coupled with his certification in expert negotiation has paved the way for Jeff to knowledgeably empower you, his client.



EXPERIENCE THE EXPERIENCE . . .

GETTING CONNECTED . . .

Due in part to Jeff's integrity, he has solid relationships and connections with industry leaders in development, architecture, construction, interior design, investment and finance. Jeff knows what prep work should be done to garner the highest price for your property. His team will oversee these preparations to streamline the process for you. As a buyer, he will advise you as to the benefits and detriments of a particular property. He can also help you create a vision as to what a property could become.



BALANCED APPROACH . . .

As a practiced yogi, Jeff understands the importance of balance and flexibility during what could be a potentially stressful time in your life. For his clients, whether buyers or sellers, he will help you interpret market trends, advocate for your personal needs, communicate to off-market networks on your behalf and explore creative financing. Real estate is not only a profession for Jeff, it's a personal passion.



A MAN FOR ALL SEASONS . . .
