"Alyssa went above and beyond to help with the sales process, connecting us with expert stagers and craftspeople, spending hours on-site and enabling us to maximize the value of our property while minimizing the time we had to spend on the sale process ourselves." - Jamie D.

"We highly recommend Alyssa Morris, who represented us in the sale of our townhouse, the purchase of a new townhouse, and the rental of a temporary apartment in the interim. Alyssa's knowledge of the market and friendly demeanor were steadying forces in our Brooklyn real estate journey, and we are very grateful that she helped us achieve our goals." - Kelly P.

"Alyssa has helped guide me through my real estate adventures over the past 15 years—both buying and selling. The best part of working with Alyssa for me is that she listened to my goals, advocated for me throughout the process, and kept me informed of each step along the way. I highly recommend working with Alyssa." - Tina M.

"If you’re house hunting (or considering it), we couldn’t recommend Alyssa enough! Working with her and the Compass team made everything so simple and seamless. Alyssa really listened to us and understood what we were looking for. She was patient, not pushy, and explained every step in the buying process, which made us feel so much more comfortable and confident. On top of the amazing client support, she found us our dream apartment! If you’re looking to move, call or email her now. Best decision we made." - Tanya S.

"ā€œI highly recommend Carolyn Cedar. She is simply phenomenal!
She listed and sold my house finding me an all cash buyer and sold it for the highest price in the neighborhood. She then helped me find my next property- a condo.
Carolyn has the best qualities you can ask in a broker. She has tremendous knowledge of the real estate market combined with exquisite people’s skills. She understood exactly what I was looking for and kept showing me listings until I found my dream home! Throughout the process, she was extremely patient and her unwavering confidence helped me tremendously to keep searching until the right property came along.
I know that I could have never done it without Carolyn’s professional wisdom, valuable advice and support.
" - Yael K.

"Carolyn Cedar was phenomenal to work with. She is very knowledgeable of the market, professional and easy to correspond with, and has a great network with other agents to work her special magic. She listed our first house in Greenwood Heights and within a week of listing had multiple over ask offers. Prior to listing, she gave great guidance on a couple small "refresher" projects and staging (never easy with 2 young kids + toys) and the listing photos were incredible.

Several months later Carolyn helped us secure our dream home, and somehow beat out 25+ best and final offers. Throughout the process Carolyn was accessible but never pushy, and we appreciated her sage advice and network connections to get both deals done. Carolyn also had top notch recommendations along the way for our real estate attorney and home inspector.
" - Julia H.

"Carolyn has been our realtor for 2 major moves in our lives and both times she has been incredibly supportive, knowledgeable, and helpful. During some of the most stressful days of our lives (that all people experience when buying/selling homes) Carolyn was a rock that helped us through. Our family could not be happier with her both in terms of buying and selling our homes. We highly recommend her and her team!" - D. Labbancz

"We discovered Maxine Resnick at an open house for an apartment in our neighborhood. We had just decided to sell and were looking at the buying side of the coin. Maxine's deep knowledge of the neighborhood revealed to us the full potential of our apartment on the market. Working with Maxine and her team we realized a substantial profit over what we originally thought to list for. She was spot on correct on every count and the communication and collaboration from start to finish was exemplary. We couldn't be happier with our experience with Corcoran, Maxine, and her team across the board. If you're looking to sell, I highly recommend Maxine Resnick at Corcoran in Park Slope. A total pro and super person to work with." - Andy B

"Maxine flawlessly navigated the staging and pricing with an uncanny understanding of the market. She was hands on from first contact through sale. We had some issues along the way that caused us to delay closing 7 months beyond initial contract date. There were countless emails, texts and calls over many months. Throughout it all we felt like we were her priority."

"Yara Ghossein understood my needs precisely and intelligently, and made it easy to find the perfect apartment in Manhattan. It took about three weeks of hunting. She guided me through all the steps of the complicated process of the purchase with grace and efficiency. She's a real estate genius." - Rosanna W

"Yara Ghossein is a fantastic agent! We recently sold a Brooklyn coop in a deal with a lot of moving parts, and from our first meeting to the final closing she was warm and friendly, calm and clear-eyed, and she brings a sharp intelligence to the role that only years of experience can provide. Yara is the best, and our sale was a success thanks to her excellent, tireless work." - Patrick and Ellen, Brooklyn
