ZillowVERIFIEDI never understood the importance of a professional realtor until I met Andy Alvarez. Andy works with Douglas-Elliman and displays a comprehensive understanding of the market, integrity in negotiations, and comprehensive customer support. Like many people, I tried to search independently and thought I understood the market. After meeting with Andy, he educated me on market conditions, values, and trends in a way I never could have discovered. Furthermore, using his network, he guided me into an incredible condo purchase far exceeding anything I could have discovered. When it came time for contract preparation and closing, he was with me every step of the way, even attending the closing. Andy Alvarez displays the best of what being a professional real estate agent looks like. Without reservation, if someone is looking for the best of the best, I sincerely recommend they call Andy.
