"I met Win when he sold me my first place, a new construction condominium in Williamsburg. Four years later when my wife and I decided it was time to sell, or initial instinct was to contact Win given our previous experience and our intuition was right. Win secured us the best deal we could have imagined. We were amazed at the effort he put into every open house and private showings. Win’s tenacity, charisma, and optimism shone through from start to finish. Having been a long-time local resident, Win knows the Williamsburg and Greenpoint neighborhoods street by street. Born and raised in Manhattan he knows this city inside and out. Through our dealings, we have become friends and I will continue to look to Win for his guidance and wisdom on the NYC market and I will certainly work with him on our next transaction." James E, Condo, Seller

★★★★★
"You are in very capable and reliable hands with Win Brown. As first time home buyers in the volatile waters of Manhattan real estate, we were skittish and disoriented. We were lucky to have found in Win, a master negotiator, a tireless researcher, a calming presence, an advice giver, a good listener and an all-around nice guy. I can’t imagine having achieved home ownership without Win. Believe me when I say, you want this guy on your side." John J, Co-op, Buyer

★★★★★
"Win Brown was referred to us by our former neighbor when we were searching for a broker to sell our loft in Chelsea. Win had sold her apartment about a year prior for a sum significantly above the asking price. His strategy, patience and determination came through and he delivered a sale that was record breaking for our building in terms of speed (5 weeks) and price per square foot. We highly recommend Win. Not only is he extremely knowledgeable about current market trends, but has charisma and a pleasant personality which is important when working together." Paul T & Naomi N, Condo, Seller

★★★★★
"I initially met Win when I was buying my condo and immediately felt as ease with him and knew that he really knew the business. It was a no brainer for me when I decided to sell my condo; I immediately went to Win and just knew he would do a great job. Win exceeded my expectations with selling my condo within one week of it being listed on the market. Throughout the entire process of going into contract to closing, Win was always on call and available at any time of the day to talk, such a great listener and communicator. The attentiveness and devotion Win possesses is what makes him even more desirable as a realtor. I highly recommend Win to anyone interested in buying and selling. I am already looking to use him again for my next purchase." Joy E, Condo, Seller

★★★★★
"I can’t say enough great things about Win: he was terrific – excellent and thorough throughout the entire process. Win was able to manage the intricacies of our self-managed coop (and the many personalities involved) to make sure the buyer was approved by the board! Win helped with every aspect of the sale, from start to finish. I highly recommend working with Win." Neda A, Co-op, Seller

★★★★★
"Win Brown, who recently sold our Chelsea loft. He and his team did an excellent job marketing the property, and quickly built tremendous interest in our property amongst a group of serious brokers and buyers. When multiple offers quickly came in – above the asking price – he advised us on the best strategy to maximize the value of our apartment and get to contract with a minimum of wear and tear, not only on us, but on the buyers as well. We were extremely satisfied with the outcome: a total of four weeks on the market and 10% above the asking price. I always felt like he was looking out for our best interest." Nina K, Condo, Seller

★★★★★
"After meeting with a few brokers, we decided to work with Win. We couldn’t be happier with our choice. In a week’s time, Win had a photographer in our space, the floor-plan drawn up, and the listing live. Within a month we had 6 quality offers on our condo, and Win negotiated a deal 20k over our asking price with no contingencies! We cannot speak highly enough of Win. With his professionalism, impressive dedication, and knowledge of the neighborhood, we have no doubt should you ever decide to sell your place; you will be exceptionally pleased if you hire him." Jason & Neilly R, Co-op, Seller

★★★★★
"Win is the perfect combination of constant hustle and unflappable calm. There were two other units for sale in our building who listed higher than we did, and in the months that followed we watched them lower their prices while we held firm. The end result was us selling at a higher price per sqft. Win set us up at the correct price, and delivered. Win’s knowledge of the neighborhood showed in our listing through his detailed description of all that living in Williamsburg has to offer. I highly recommend working with Win. He is a skilled broker and a joyful person. He kept us level headed during what could have easily been a very stressful time and we are very happy with the deal he secured us." Michael T, Condo, Seller

★★★★★
"We initially came to Win through his reputation in our building for having found a buyer quickly and then been able to navigate the challenges of our coop. Win had our listing online within a week of meeting. He had a deep understanding of themarket and potential of our unit, and positioned it appropriately. Win brought us 4 offers in under a month. He also secured a feature for it in the New York Times real estate section. In a matter of weeks, Win and I were working on optimizing a handful of offers that followed. When in contract, Win worked with our building attorney to make the transaction smooth. Win’s ability to navigate multiple streams of communication (and personalities!) across all stakeholders of the transaction- building, buyer and seller attorneys- was beyond impressive. It is with our highest recommendations that we endorse Win Brown as the ultimate agent. Both Gina and I are happy to be references for future clients." Gake K & Gina E, Co-op, Seller

★★★★★
"You gotta call Win! He will sell your apartment!" Was what my brother exclaimed when I told him I felt like I was hitting a wall with other brokers. He came highly recommended during a time I felt I wasn't getting the right information or advice on selling my beloved condo in Dumbo I had lived in for 11 years. Win answered the phone right away, listened and offered honest, informative and ultimately very accurate information. Because of his and his family's experience in the business for many years, he was clear, passionate, real and optimistic about how we could get the price we wanted with the right buyer. He's very good at reading people and if something doesnt seem right, he will tell you. I highly recommend Win, he will work thoroughly for you. He's also just a great guy" Grace G.

★★★★★
"Win has been my longtime go-to resource for real estate in NYC. I have purchased two homes and sold one home through Win and I honestly couldn't trust anyone else to do a better job at prospecting, listing and negotiating my properties. He has a mastery of the NYC market, especially in Williamsburg and Greenpoint. I have referred him to personal friends and family members, who have all had positive experiences, and I cannot recommend him enough."

★★★★★
"I listed my condo with Win Brown in February of 2016. Within 10 days of going on the market we had accepted an offer for $80,000 over asking price. Win was immensely helpful at every stage of the process- from providing sound and economical advice on staging to working with our condo board to obtain the necessary documentation for closing the sale. The assistance with the condo board was of particular value in that my condo was in a small building with a condo board (still controlled by the original sponsors of the building) whom had little experience or aptitude for building management. He was consistently available to answer any questions or concerns by text, email, or phone throughout every stage of the process. In short, Win has my wholehearted and enthusiastic recommendation." - Martin

★★★★★
"Win lives and breathes real estate. I know he is always on top of it all with what's available, what's going to be available and how to proceed logically and strategically. I've bought two apartments through Win and sold one apartment with Win. I've worked with other brokers and none compare to Win. He is my go to guy and I cannot recommend him enough."

★★★★★
"We've worked with Win a few times already and we've been really happy with both our buying and selling processes. He has a tremendous knowledge in best neighborhoods to invest, renovation details and resale potential. He's completely reliable and has gotten us the best deals as buyers and sellers. Not your typical pushy broker - really personable and easy to talk to and his advice is invaluable. I would definitely recommend him to all my friends and family!"

★★★★★
"Win is a phenomenal agent. He is knowledgeable, responsive, helpful, and wants for his clients to ultimately be happy. Buying a home can be a frustrating and overwhelming experience unless you have someone on your side who is looking out for your best interests. Win does exactly that. I would highly recommend him!"
