ReviewMarcus was instrumental to selling my Brooklyn apartment in the middle of this pandemic. From the first meeting all the way up to the close, he was extremely professional and accommodative, handling repairs, staging, and documents while my family was living in a different state! He provided a huge piece of mind and was always looking out for my best interest while remaining transparent and open during throughout the process. He was also very knowledgeable on the local market, offering up the most sensible asking price of any agent I had interviewed during my initial screening process. I cannot recommend Marcus enough!

Review Marcus has been great to help me find a tenant for my newly purchased apartment in Bushwick. He is very fast to respond to any questions and was very flexible to accommodate my requests. He advised me on how to adjust the advertising strategy for the apartment and found a great tenant even in this crazy times of covid. I had an overall great experience with him and highly recommend him!

Review I recently moved into the WV area of NYC using Marcus as our broker. He was exceptional to work with and is by far the most organized, communicative and friendly broker I have used. He exceeded our expectations by not only finding us a great apartment but also helping us coordinate all of our moving needs and has checked regularly to ensure everything is running smoothly. I highly recommend reaching out to Marcus for any real estate needs.

Review Marcus was an absolute dream to work with when buying our home. Not only did he expertly navigate us through the complicated buying process, he also patiently explained everything as we went along. In addition to his deep knowledge of the market, Marcus has the thing every buyer wants in their real estate agent: he's responsive, composed, and reassuring. It was a relief to know Marcus was on top of everything, often proactively offering his insight, help, and even a laugh when things got stressful for two nervous buyers. Got our dream place in the end.Exceptional service all around and could not recommend highly enough.

Review Class act!! Marcus was incredibly helpful during my search for a rental. I relocated to NYC on a Monday and signed my lease on a Thursday night. I found an amazing apartment in the upper east side. Marcus prepared me before the relocation and enabled me to hit the ground running once I arrived. He has great knowledge of the different neighborhoods and was a great asset as I worked through picking the right home. I would recommend him to anyone beginning their search!

Review Marc is very friendly, organized and knowledgeable. I hired him to help with my first home purchase, a 1-bedroom co-op in Manhattan, and I valued his experience throughout the process from the search to closing. He was very calm and composed during what could have been a very stressful experience (New York City Co-ops) and I am grateful that I was able to rely on him to answer all of my first-time home buying questions. I would strongly recommend using him for your home purchase.

Review Marcus has been a great salesperson with critical and specific knowledge of neighborhoods that are great for new developing areas. Most realtors just want the sales contract but Marcus proves time and time again that it important to represent the client's best interest and find what suits their needs. To add to that, Marcus focuses and studies communities that are on the edge of social and economic boom and helps the client understand longer term of their purchase.

Review Marcus was very easy to work with throughout the whole process of buying our first home. He is kind, helpful and approachable - we feel like he is an old friend! His professionalism and knowledge helped us through some very frustrating parts of our mortgage application. We would definitely recommend him to anyone new at navigating a real estate purchase.

Review I bought my first apartment (co-op) with Marcus as my broker this fall and he was a life saver. As a newbie to NYC home buying I had a lot of questions and he was always very responsive and patient in allaying my concerns and making sure I was comfortable with every step of the process. He also gave great advice on the bidding process to make sure I didn't miss out on the apartment (when we were in a situation with multiple bidders). I would highly recommend him for any apartment/home search in NYC.

Review Marcus was the listing broker, and we were the renters. Our experience with him was great. He was very communicative and went above and beyond to make sure we were taken care of, everything was clear, and made extra efforts to make sure a fix was made when there was an issue with a renovation. thank you!

Review Marcus helped greatly while I was looking for a place. I had some pretty strict requirements and he helped me understand exactly what I should expect and what to do to get the best outcome. I definitely plan to reach out to Marc again if I find myself looking.

Review Our neighbor recommended Marcus to help us rent out our garden level apartment. He came prepared, knew the market cold, was realistic in helping us set the price and in how long the process was likely to take. He found us a very suitable tenant, and the process was smooth and drama-free - from the open house to the vetting of applicants to the credit check to reference checking and negotiations around terms. We will absolutely use him again and recommend him to our neighbors. He is smart, scrappy, honest and even-keeled. We are big fans!

Review Marcus was a phenomenal agent and just generally great guy to work with, a straight-shooter. My gf and I really put Marcus through the ringer with our unrealistic search, dealing with us trying to gather our paperwork last minute, and then again with the very demanding listing agent. Being new to Manhattan, our initial criteria for an apartment was a little off, to say the least. Marcus was upfront and transparent during the whole process. I can't tell you how comforting it was working with an agent like Marcus who was on point with all the neighborhoods we had him take us through, four too many.You think the process is quick and easy, and maybe for some it is, but when things get a little hectic (especially during the 11th hour) you want someone like Marcus who is working for you. My gf and I wont be moving anytime soon, but when we do, we'll be using Marcus.

Review Marc was extremely helpful during the process of helping my family and me find a new home. The best aspect of his service was his responsiveness. He was always available. He always keep us informed along the way. He even rearranged some of his personal plans to help us close the deal. I would highly recommend him to anyone I know.

Review Marcus went above and beyond to help my wife and me during our recent move from San Francisco to Brooklyn. On 3 days notice, he met me and drove me all over Crown Heights and Prospect Lefferts Gardens, even though we didn't see a listing I liked that day. He then drove me all around the park to point out different neighborhoods and help me get a sense of the area. Over the following two weeks, he worked with us remotely, sending us photos, looking at different apartments, negotiating on our behalf, etc. We even backed out of one apartment after having second thoughts, and it didn't deter him one bit; he truly was keeping our best interests at heart.When we found one apartment that we liked but was slightly above our budget, Marcus successfully negotiated with the landlord to get a W/D installed. We couldn't be more excited about our new place and pleased with his efforts; he's the rare agent that's worth the fee!!!

Review Marcus was extremely helpful throughout our apartment hunt! I met Marcus on a Sunday after seeing 10 so so apartments on Saturday. The apartment he showed me was fantastic and had a great deal. When we submitted our application he was quick and easy to communicate with. He was very flexible and met with us at a neat neighborhood bar to sign the lease. He generously still answers any questions that have come up since our signing! Will be sure to work with him again and would love to recommend him to fellow New Yorkers!

Review So, everyone knows that finding an apartment in Brooklyn is only slightly more fun than undergoing an unanestethized root canal. But everyone is wrong. Or at least everyone hasn't had the pleasure of working with Marcus. My partner and I have a wonderful apartment that met all our criteria -- price range, subway access, neighborhood intangibles -- and it's all thank to Marcus. What's more, he handled our search efficiently and effectively and knew to ask questions that we might not have considered. I cannot recommend him highly enough. Thanks, Marcus!

Review Marcus was great to work with. He showed me the place I ended up getting at my first appointment. He was also able to negotiate a fair resolution of one issue I had in applying for the place. He was very honest and forthright about my other options as far as alternatives to renting a place through a broker--not advice you expect to get from a broker but very much appreciated!

Review Can't say I've always been a fan of brokers....but Marcus kept the process very fluid and easy. He was responsive within minutes to every email and text message I sent him, and he helped my roommate and I secure an affordable 2 bdrm apartment in a nice manhattan neighborhood at a price we certainly did not expect. He does his job well -- if you're looking to land a good deal without searching for days on end then I'd definitely recommend this guy

Review Working with Marcus was a real pleasure. He was very easily reachable at all times, knowledgeable about the process, the building where we wanted to rent and the neighborhood. He also kept us in mind when the first apartment we wanted to rent didn't work out, and he contacted us as soon as a new apartment showed up in the same building. Totally recommended.

Review Marc was the most helpful realtor I have ever worked with. He was not pushy and listened to all of my needs. I was moving to Brooklyn from Manhattan and not familiar with the neighborhoods and he drove me through each educating me on each area and giving his advice on what he thought would suite me best. He listened to all of my requests and was extremely helpful when putting in an offer.I HIGHLY recommend him and will be using him for future moves.

Review Marc was very helpful with our (my girlfriend and I's) move to Brooklyn. He drove us around a few neighborhoods to give us a better feel for them which was extremely beneficial. He never pressured us into taking anything we weren't interested in and was very patient and understanding of our needs. I would highly recommend Marc to anyone looking for an apartment in NYC.

Review In the month prior to moving into our new apartment. My roommates and I viewed more than three dozen apartments throughout Brooklyn. We met with many brokers over the course of a few weeks, but no one was more helpful and genuinely enthusiastic than Marcus. His detailed description of the neighborhood's most notable features made us feel welcomed and informed. When it came time to prepare paperwork and finalize our lease, Marcus walked us through every step of the way and reached out daily to help answer any questions we had. We love our apartment, and truly feel grateful for his honest input and commitment to our comfort. Thank you Marcus!

Review As someone who just moved to NYC, I was very intimated by the apartment search process and Marcus saved the day! My boyfriend and I told him our price range and neighborhoods we were interested in, and he scheduled an entire day for us to drive to each apartment for a viewing. I was very impressed with the selection and the first apartment that Marcus showed me- ended up being the perfect match. Thank you Marcus for all of your help!

Review I recently moved to Williamsburg from out of state. I knew very little about the area and wanted a place that offered fun night life and easy transportation in the city. Marcus was able to find me a great spot within my budget, lifestyle preference and most importantly in very short notice. I would highly recommend him.

Review Marcus was absolutely great to work with. We we're moving to NY from CA and he helped us every step of the way. He was on top of it with communication and made us feel very comfortable throughout the whole process. To top it all off, we didn't have time to fly out and see our space before renting it. He accommodated us by taking a lot of pictures and allowing our friends to check out places for us. After moving he followed up with us and even became a great resource for figuring out our new area.The next time we move we will definitely be giving Marcus a call!

Review Marcus showed my roommates and I two apartments on the upper west side. I saw ~20 apts before making a selection, and his were #2 & #3. Unfortunately, #1 was with a different company, but I still very much appreciated Marcus's time and expertise. I described what I wanted to him in non-specific terms and he easily grasped the essence and in turn showed me units that were very much top tier and what I wanted. Marcus was able to help me navigate the conversation with the other parties involved at both units and pointed out nuances of what made each place good and bad, and helped me weigh tradeoffs including, space, neighborhood, new-ness, and intangibles like a bathroom with a window is less likely to have mold problems. All around, top notch service and definitely someone I would recommend to my friends and family.

Review Marcus was a real pleasure to work with as he helped with my search for an apartment in NYC. He is an excellent communicator and understood my requirements so the apartment would not only fit but exceed my expectations. He was patient and provided a lot of insight into the real estate market, the average price of apartments, timing, etc. He did not try to lead me in a certain direction but instead shared his honest opinion. I would highly recommend Marcus and would absolutely use him in the future for all of my real estate needs.

Review Marcus was an absolute pleasure to work with. In an urban sea of sketchy brokers and agents, Marcus was a breath of fresh air. He went out of his way on numerous occasions to accommodate my partner and me, who are delighted with our new one-bedroom in Park Slope. He is flexible, very knowledgeable of the market in NYC and genuinely interested in helping his clients find a home. Highly recommended.

Review Marcus helped me and my girlfriend lease a beautiful brownstone floor-thru apartment in Park Slope. He was very responsive and, since we had a pretty specific type of apartment we wanted, Marcus didn't waste our time showing us ones he/we knew we wouldn't want.

Review I reached out to Marcus in January of 2011 to assist with brokering my first apartment in NYC. He was able to show my two friends and I a few different options, but we ultimately settled on a place on 70th and 2nd. Marcus was extremely helpful and patience with us during the extensive process of signing a lease. He was able to negotiate a price that fit our budget and always kept us in the loop as to where the process stands. He was so helpful that I contacted Marcus again for my 2nd apartment search. He was able to find me a great (no fee) spot on the UES. The best part about the place was no fee, but Marcus still worked equally as hard even though he was not receiving a fee from me. If, and undoubtedly when, I move again, Marcus will be the first call I make. Thanks again.
