Brown Harris Stevens

Originally from the Philippines, Edwin R. Josue has been living in New York City for the past 31 years, making a mark for himself in the real estate industry from the start.

When he began his career in real estate in 1993, Edwin totaled $5 million as a residential real estate broker within his first year. In addition to his sales experience, Edwin has managed eight buildings for City Living/American Landmark, most notably the pre-war Bing and Bing buildings on East 73rd Street. He continued to hone his real estate skills under the mentorship of Ms. Adrienne Albert, the president of The Marketing Directors, a residential sales marketing firm.

Two years later, Edwin joined Jean Marc Levet & Partners, and with the firm’s merger into Brown Harris Stevens, he worked as an Associate Broker for four years while continuing to efficiently manage several buildings. With the knowledge he has acquired, both as a broker and a property management expert, Edwin has successfully sold and rented high-end properties all over the city.

In 2001, Edwin formed his own successful real estate company, which grossed $6 million during the first year. He also ventured into an event design company, Design Fusion, with partner Jerry Sibal.

Now at Brown Harris Stevens, Edwin aims to use his unique blend of sales and management expertise to provide his clients with superb, knowledgeable service.

Of note, Edwin is a magna cum laude graduate from San Beda College (AB Economics) in Manila, and earned a Master’s in Business Administration, majoring in finance, from the city’s prestigious De La Salle University.

I am writing to express my satisfaction and appreciation of Edwin R. Josue. Mr. Josue showed and assisted my husband and I in renting apartment 14D at The Vanderbilt located on 235 East 40th st.

From the moment we met, Mr. Josue was professional, courteous, knowledgeable and respectful. He guided us through the process of renting the apartment, was available at all times, made us to feel secure and that our case is being treated professionally and fairly. All of my concerns and questions were always answered right away and I especially noticed the personal importance to Edwin that everything goes smoothly. I have dealt with several brokers in the past, however I have never received such high quality service. I have already referred some of my colleagues to Edwin and will continue to do so.

I'd be happy to give any verbal recommendation in the future as well.

Thank you,
Nurit Leiderman

"Edwin was a true partner in finding my dream home in NYC. He was patient, positive, knowledgeable, meticulous, and quick to reply. He negotiated hard on my behalf and held my hand throughout the process. Best of all, even after the deal was done, he helped sort out all the details of being a new homeowner. I enjoyed our relationship and would definitely recommend his services." - Lisa G

"Edwin has patiently sold our apartments—two of them as a matter of fact, one with my uncle and mine. For several months he showed it with tenacity and hard work. As the buyers came along, he handled the transactions in the most professional way. In the end, his utmost grip on NYC real estate knowledge gave us a 5-star rating on his services. Will definitely recommend him to our family and friends." - Huey P.
