Client Testimonials★★★★★
I was connected to Joseph through a friend and could not have asked for a better realtor. I live out of State and was looking for a second home in the City. My lack of knowledge of the different neighborhoods and what things should cost was a bit intimidating, but Joseph was very patient with me and made everything easy. He has an impressive knowledge of everything the various communities have to offer; he knows the architecture, the cultural centers, the parks/outdoor spaces, the best restaurants, the subway stops, the best fitness centers, etc. He also has a firm grasp on fair market value. He understood my wants and made the process easy. I would highly recommend Joseph to anyone looking to make a move to or in New York City. -John Cooper | President & Founder, Cooper Tacia General Contracting Company

Client Testimonials★★★★★
Having moved from Texas, Joseph Castillo was instrumental in ensuring my move went as smoothly as possible. He was truly informative and knowledgeable regarding every neighborhood in NYC, which is exactly what I needed as a NYC transplant. He stayed on top of his game throughout the entire process by finding new options even when we felt we had sorted through all of them. Working with Joseph made it so much more achievable to navigate the overwhelming and rapidly changing real estate market in New York City. -Wisdom Kaye | Content Creator

Client Testimonials★★★★★
Just when I thought I had Manhattan figured out, my daughter, an NYU student, decided to trade it for Brooklyn post a semester abroad. Enter Joseph – our recommended guide in this housing adventure. Joseph's a gem not just for his real estate prowess, but for being genuinely good people. His honesty about places that didn't fit the bill (thanks to location, security, or proximity to undesirable elements) was refreshing.
Even with my daughter miles away, Joseph took us on a virtual tour of Brooklyn via Facetime, keeping us engaged, especially after losing a promising spot. Long story short, he led us to the perfect place, and we couldn't be happier. I can't recommend Joseph enough he's not just a real estate pro, but someone we trust. We'll definitely be reaching out to him for any future ventures
-Erin Roberts l Deputy General Counsel at FIVE GUYS Enterprises, LLC

Client Testimonials★★★★★
Joseph was the most helpful broker we could have imagined when hunting for our NYC rental. Our move was from out of state with a single weekend where we could tour things in person his communication leading up to the weekend was incredible, and his expertise was so helpful when determining what was reasonable for our neighborhood and budget. For our showing weekend, he coordinated all the showings for us, negotiated on our behalf, and ultimately got us placed in an apartment we love. I couldn’t recommend Joseph more and we will absolutely use him again whenever the time comes! -Amanda & Harley | Relocated from Nashville, TN

About Joseph
The logo of Barnett Team

Joseph Castillo was drawn to a real estate profession in July 2021 at a premier boutique firm in NYC, where he specialized in rentals and was soon appointed to solely lease an exciting new development project in the East Village. He handled an exclusive portfolio of 80 units across 15 buildings which he rented in less than 10 months, and his referral business grew exponentially. This led Joseph to close countless other deals, including for well-known fashion content creator, Wisdom Kaye. He broadened his scope to sales, and has continued successfully helping clients buy and sell throughout this vibrant city.

“I strive to guide my clients with knowledge, confidence and ease through the often- stressful and confusing process of finding a new home. Living in Bushwich, I deeply appreciate the romantic and smaller-scale hidden pockets of New York, servicing Park Slope, Clinton Hill, Williamsburg and other Brooklyn neighborhoods as well as downtown and all of Manhattan, with deals closed as far north as Inwood!”

Joseph is a hardworking, highly-productive real estate agent, whose nimbleness and collaborative attitude have built a stellar reputation among landlords and clients in the fast- paced NYC housing market. His prior background in luxury retail was extensive, and fueled his skills and finesse when it comes to sales and superior customer service. The last five years of that career, Joseph spent working at Saks Fifth Avenue and lastly, Christian Louboutin, as the youngest manager at the top-producing store in the U.S. There he assisted VIP/celebrity clients and helped coordinate styling pulls for other prominent figures like The Kardashian family and a former First Lady.

Born and raised in Costa Rica until age 14, Joseph moved with his family to Seattle, Washington and attended high school there, earning an Associate’s degree from Bellevue, WA through an accelerated program. He came to NYC to attend Fashion Institute of Technology, receiving a Bachelor’s degree in Advertising and Marketing Communications.

Joseph is a native Spanish speaker plus is conversant in French. He is married to an architect, and is an avid outdoor runner who loves seeing the city from a whole other perspective through his sport.
