"Over the past twenty years, my wife and I have been involved - as buyers and sellers - in five different significant transactions in which Marcy served as our broker. Her professionalism, intelligence, and patience made us repeat customers. Marcy worked diligently to understand our needs, interests, and tastes. She worked steadfastly in our best interests. She was dogged in searching for the right properties while always being respectful of our time. She clearly understood both our aesthetic and our financial goals and objectives. She has an eye for value and draws on vast experience of the New York residential real estate market. Marcy is a skilled negotiator who is highly respected by her counterparts and colleagues. She is a closer and listener; no detail is too small for her attention in getting a deal done fairly and in the best interests of her clients. We enthusiastically recommend Marcy to anyone looking for assistance in the New York real estate market."

"I would like to express my personal gratitude to Marcy Grau for the guidance and support she gave us in two real estate transactions. The first was our home, a prewar co-op, classic six with many years of family history, moderately renovated, and clearly an emotional sale. Marycy's guidance on how to stage, price, and sell the apartment was brilliant. She was able to conclude the transaction above the asking price in record time, with the additional time to move out at a later date. Complete home run! Our second transaction was selling my mother-in-law's apartment in a modern condominium building with great bones, river views, and moderately renovated. We discussed pricing and decided to go with where she thought it should trade. And it did - at our asking price, despite a flooded market at the time. We recommend Marcy as a wonderful broker for both old-world co-ops as well as new world condos."
