Wilbur Gonzalez brings more than a decade of experience in luxury residential real estate with exceptional results, holding a unique position within the firm as a Managing Director of the new development unit poised to represent over $500,000,000 (half a billion) in 2007. As one of Manhattan's top luxury brokers, his clients are in the best of hands. Many of his high-profile deals have been covered by People Magazine, New York Magazine, Cindy Adams, Rush and Molly, Page Six, Gotham Magazine and other publications. Moreover, he's been quoted in the New York Times, Daily News, Wall Street Journal, New York Observer, New York Sun and New York Post for his insight on the luxury market. “Our marketing plan is one of the best in the business. I make sure every broker in the city is immediately made aware of my new properties. I also market to my personal network of prominent clients in the investment banking, hedge fund and entertainment businesses. Add our vast global reach via our exclusive affiliation with Christie's Great Estates and an advertising presence in the top publications for exposure that is second to none. For my sellers, that exposure translates into getting the highest price in the shortest time." His success is a blend of top-notch negotiating skills, creative marketing and a confidence in the market. "I love the diversity, energy and architectural beauty of New York. I have invested in several new developments including 40 Mercer, 505 Greenwich, 255 Hudson, 100 West 39th, 15 Broad and 56 Pine. I continue to be bullish on our luxury market. We are a global city with international appeal strengthened by Wall Street, Fortune 500 leaders and Hollywood. No other city in the world has that combination. My confidence in the market reassures my buyers of their long-term investment. Quality luxury real estate will slowly but surely continue to rise into 2007. Having recently sold out Jean Nouvel's 40 Mercer in record time at record numbers, I'm convinced new developments with acclaimed architects will lead that market." Prior to entering the luxury real estate market, Wilbur studied undergraduate and graduate literature at New York University.
