"Alison is a real estate pro. I’ve worked with her for the last 10 years and recommend her to all my friends, who also sing her praises. My husband and I used Alison to sell our first New York City apartment, after which she helped us secure a rental until our family was ready to buy again. She most recently helped us purchase our dream home. What I love the most about Alison is that she isn’t pushy and has a wonderful personality. She took the time to understand what we want and deliver everything on our checklist. This last time around, Alison showed us many wonderful homes in different neighborhoods and price points. Her knowledge of the market and ability to provide data made us comfortable in our offer and securing a deal. She also helped streamline the process and was very resourceful in providing us with industry professionals, from a real estate attorney to an architect and a designer. Alison is the only broker I’d trust to buy or sell our home.” - EL/MH, Buyer

"Alison is a consummate professional. She worked tirelessly to find us the perfect coop to purchase as part of a 1031 exchange. There is no one I would trust more to get the job done. We were on a tight timeframe and she made it all possible by quickly finding listings, scheduling showings, board package assistance all the way through to the closing. She is always available, quick to respond and never misses a detail. I can't thank her enough and can't wait to work with her again." DK - Buyer

"Alison worked tirelessly, faithfully, and enthusiastically to find the perfect home for my family and me. She took the time to get to know us and our needs - so well she could vet apartments on my behalf! Alison explains, educates, and takes you through every step of the process. She keeps you informed, is flexible, and available to the end. Alison made the closing process so incredibly easy, it was a pleasure. I wouldn't work with anyone else." CB - Buyer

"Alison helped me buy and sell my NYC apartment. I trusted her immediately. Over the 13 years of ownership, she and I stayed in contact. She became my friend, and there was no question at all as to who I would work with when it was time for me to sell. Alison helped me procure top dollar in record time. I am grateful for her work, her hustle, and most importantly, her integrity and friendship." Lauren T. - Seller

Wow! Weren't we lucky! You were terrific in helping to make it happen. We'll be forever grateful! - Niki F. and Dr. Joel H. - Buyer

Alison made buying a NYC apartment a pleasure for my wife and I. First, she got to know exactly what was important to us and started to show us only places that fit. She understood that I need data so she often sent me important market data and analysis. We live most of the year in Florida, it was important to be efficient when we were in town to see places. Alison got to know our tastes and neighborhood preferences in no time and narrowed down our search quickly. She only contacted us when there was a close match. After many months of patience, Alison found what she thought was the perfect place for us. She was absolutely right! It was perfect and we bought it immediately. We are so excited about our NYC apartment and thankful that we had such a perfect professional to guide us and look out for us. I highly recommend Alison to anyone looking for an outstanding NYC agent. - Buyer

Alison was a pleasure to work with. Her knowledge of the market and clear sales plan was key for me. She has a good eye for design, creating expert staging that really helped to show the apartment at its best to secure multiple offers quickly. I have no hesitation in recommending Alison’s services to my friends. AKP - Seller

Alison worked with us to find exactly what we were looking for. She was hard working, friendly and found my family the perfect apartment. We couldn't be happier and we will certainly use her in the future. - Buyer

We found you to be both highly professional and personable - a pleasure to work with. Your prompt response to our needs and concerns, your suggestion of the most effective strategies, your attention to detail - both paperwork and photography of our apartment - are very much appreciated. - Seller
