Client Testimonials
★★★★★

"Miriam's personal approach, dedication and professionalism are extraordinary. She helped us sell our apartment, helping every step of the way. We highly recommend her."

Jane A., Seller


★★★★★

"Miriam was absolutely wonderful to deal with from start to finish as we searched for a Manhattan co-op. She was always available, even in the preliminary stages of our search when we researched neighborhoods and price ranges. By the end of our second outing (after seeing at least 12 places with her), she truly understood what we wanted and what would appeal to us. Whenever a co-op that might meet our needs came on the market, she promptly notified us and was more than willing to preview whichever ones we felt were worth pursuing. Remarkably, she never pressured us at all and was more than patient as we became comfortable with the market and the buildings in our targeted area. She was kind, polite, and professional, more than willing to educate us on the NY market as well as neighborhoods during our several months of looking at co-ops. Additionally, she always responded promptly to our texts, calls or emails, regardless of how minute the matter or the day of the week. Once we found a co-op to bid upon, she guided us through the process with tremendous skill and perseverance. It was a pleasure to deal with Miriam and we recommend her without reservation."
