Megan and I wanted to thank you for the great job you did helping us buy our new apartment. Knowing you for almost 30 years it came as no surprise to me that you went above and beyond at every turn. As we all know, there are many twists and turns when you buy an apartment in New York City and you navigated them all in a truly professional manner. Your level of customer service and availability made the process as seamless as possible. We know how hard you fought to get us the best deal and for our rights from beginning to end. I would certainly recommend you without hesitation to anyone looking to buy or sell a place." - Rob and Megan

I met Keith by chance at an open house that he was hosting and liked him immediately. I had just started hunting for my first co-op and came across other agents that were either too impatient, aggressive, or flaky. Not Keith--he was very friendly and answered all my questions (and I ask a ton of questions) patiently, which is important for a first time buyer. He consistently got back to me within 24 hours and was very attentive to what I was looking for. Every apartment he suggested I see was progressively better than the last and I never felt that he was wasting my time dragging me around the city to see all that was available. When I finally settled on an apartment I liked, he walked me through each and every step I needed to complete, which was enormously helpful. The co-op application, which is monster document, went smoothly thanks to his detail-oriented assistance in helping put it all together. I very much enjoyed working with Keith and would highly recommend him if you're looking for someone who has integrity and is personable." - E. Lee

Dear Keith, Susan and I wanted to thank you again for all of your outstanding work in our recent co-op purchase. When you told us that buying a co-op in Manhattan would be "unlike anything you have ever experienced," little did we know how accurate your statement would turn out to be. You were right there with us at every part ofthe transaction - from showing us a number of apartments, to negotiating the purchase, to helping us prepare for the board interview. While the process was quite "pain-free," your ongoing advice and assistance certainly helped make it go a lot more smoothly than it otherwise likely would have. Needless to say, we were very satisfied with your representation, and we would not hesitate to recommend you to anyone we know. Thank yon againl" Todd D.

Dear Keith, We just wanted to take the time to tell you how much we appreciate your efforts in finding us the perfect apartment. Thank you for being so patient, understanding and honest with us, Finding a home is not the easiest, but you made it as stress free and simple as possible. Thank you and look forward to hearing from us when we are ready for a bigger place." - Taryn and Rebecca

Dear Olga, Thank you for your guidance and support during our apartment search. With sincere hopes for continuing business relationship and long lasting friendship." - Oleg and Lana

Dear Olga, Thank you for going above and beyond the call of duty. We couldn’t have done this without you." Ron, Michelle, Naomi and Gabriel

Olga, My family and I want to wish you happy holidays. But most of all thank you for all your hard work in finding us a great place in NY we hope to enjoy for many years to come. Thank you again." - The Courtney Family
