“I absolutely loved working with Rachel. I have been so impressed with
Rachel's 'out of the box' thinking, innovative problem solving, kindness,
care and attention to detail. My apartment had been sitting empty and she
came to me with a strategy to have it rented in less than 2 weeks. She
listened to my needs and was responsive and supportive throughout the
entire process. I would 150% recommend working with her. She is a dream,
both professionally and personally.”

"We feel lucky to have had the opportunity to work with Rachel Greenstein when we sold our townhouse in Brooklyn. Rachel helped guide us through the process of listing and showing our house during a pandemic, and she truly went the extra mile to find us the right buyer (at the right price). She has a great sense of how to market a house - and she doesn't neglect any detail when it comes to staging or promoting a property. Rachel has a great work ethic and is always willing to roll up her sleeves to get things done quickly and efficiently. Rachel's extensive network and communication skills serve her well - she understands the needs of prospective buyers, and she manages her clients' expectations and concerns throughout the process. Rachel comes with my highest recommendations, and we hope to have the chance to work with her again."

562 Bergen St
Only rarely does a property of this caliber – and pedigree, come to market. A masterwork of Swedish architect Magnus Dahlander, this 3,220 square-foot, five-bedroom, single-family home was built in the Romanesque Revival style in 1893. 562 Bergen Street is one of an ensemble of three homes, which, when seen from certain angles, appears to be a single mansion, punctuated on either side with two four-story turrets. But this splendid, move-in-ready townhouse stands out in particular with its east-to-west orientation, windows on three sides, and its dramatic arched entrance set on the long side of the structure, which so beautifully blends rough-hewn brick, brownstone details, and lovely plantings at every turn. Entering through the grand rounded door with its beveled glass panes, sidelights, and stained glass, you arrive in a proper vestibule with a patterned period tile floor and original oak detail. Just beyond, the foyer centers around the distinctive staircase with restored balusters and railings. It opens on one side to the front parlor with delicate fretwork, a pier mirror, the first of this home’s six mantels, and its turreted bay windows that bring in light from multiple directions. On the other side is a den/library with built-in bookcases and beyond that an office with tall windows and another mantle. The two upper levels house five bedrooms and two bathrooms in total. On the third floor, each large bedroom has an original mantel, completely modernized walk-in closets, and other architectural details.
