TESTIMONIALS:

“Cindy helped us purchase our first apartment. She was extremely patient and answered all our questions while we were looking through several properties. She helped us smoothly navigate the entire process from identifying apartments that exceeded our expectations to closing the apartment we wanted to purchase. Her honesty, strong work ethic, passion to help clients and expertise in the real estate market set her apart and her positive attitude made her a great pleasure to work with. Without hesitation, we would recommend her to anyone looking to purchase, sell or rent their home." – Cengiz Y.

“I've moved quite a few times in my life and the experience with Cindy was by far the smoothest. She was able to streamline the process of me reviewing the apartments that met my requirements and I was able to find an amazing place with no complications at all. Cindy was professional, prompt and courteous. I would most definitely be her client for my next move.” – Jarrod P.

"I can’t recommend Cindy highly enough! Cindy is not just amazing at what she does — she is genuinely warm, kind, and personable and makes you feel like you’re her only client. She is the kind of person who turns what could be a transactional process into a personal and fun experience. I’m so grateful for all her hard work and would recommend her in a heartbeat!” - Charlotte S.

Çiğdem Gökay, 20 yılı aşkın süredir New York emlak piyasasında güvenilir, şeffaf ve sonuç odaklı bir isim olarak tanınıyor.

İstanbul doğumlu olan Çiğdem, çocukluğunu Türkiye’de geçirdikten sonra 12 yaşında ailesiyle birlikte Amerika’ya taşındı. Ortaokul, lise ve üniversite eğitimini ABD’de tamamladıktan sonra emlak sektörüne adım attı. İlk yıllarında asistan olarak başladığı bu yolculukta, zamanla yüzlerce milyon dolarlık satışların başında yer alan deneyimli bir emlak profesyoneline dönüştü.

Çiğdem, özellikle yurtdışından New York’a yatırım yapmak isteyen Türk alıcılarla birebir ilgileniyor. Uygun dairenin bulunmasından tapu işlemlerine, kiraya verme süreci ve kiracı yönetimi dahil olmak üzere tüm süreci baştan sona yönetiyor. Yani sadece ev alımına değil, yatırımın doğru yönetilmesine de odaklanıyor.

New York’ta birçok önemli yeni konut projesinde satış direktörlüğü yapmış olan Çiğdem, projelerin lansmanından teslimine kadar tüm aşamalarda yer aldı. Mimarlar, kredi danismanlari, hukuk ve pazarlama ekipleriyle yakın iş birlikleri sayesinde projelere hem stratejik hem de estetik katkı sağladı.

Pazarlık gücü, piyasa bilgisi ve güven veren yaklaşımıyla bilinen Çiğdem, müşterilerine yalnızca bir ev satın alma süreci sunmaz; aynı zamanda süreci adım adım yönetir ve her aşamada bilgi verir. Bu yaklaşımı, özellikle yabancı yatırımcılar için süreci güvenli ve stressiz hale getirir.

Fotoğrafçılık, seyahat ve dekorasyona olan ilgisi sayesinde, Çiğdem bir evi sadece dört duvar olarak görmez—her detayıyla alıcının gözünde canlanacak şekilde sunar. Mekânları, potansiyel alıcıların yaşam tarzlarına uygun olarak konumlandırır; bu da evlerin piyasada daha doğru alıcıyla daha kısa sürede buluşmasını sağlar.

Yatırım yapmayı düşünüyorsanız ya da New York’ta doğru adımlarla ilerlemek istiyorsanız, süreci birlikte planlayalım. Her adımı şeffaf, net ve güvenli şekilde yönetmek için buradayım.
