Julia was efficient, professional, and sold my condo quickly. Fantastic service! Julia’s attention to detail and responsiveness were very much appreciated. She and her team made the entire transaction an outstanding experience, and I would recommend Julia to others in the area without hesitation. Thank you, Julia!
As first-time homebuyers in New York, we needed a guide to assemble the right team and navigate a competitive market. Julia was the guide for us who led us to a home we love! She was friendly, knowledgeable, and moved swiftly and professionally during the offer process, which helped our offer get accepted. *Finding a home* In February 2021, we started looking for a 2-bedroom within $600K, and we were open to almost anywhere in Brooklyn, Queens, and Upper Manhattan. Julia (and her associate Juestina) sent us an initial list of apartments from their database, and we selected a few to visit. Julia met us at the first showing in Harlem, and she was really friendly and knowledgeable. After that first showing, we visited the apartments on our own. We also did our own search on StreetEasy and got help from Julia's team to schedule the showings. After visiting 7-8 places, we found a place on Str…

We also did our own search on StreetEasy and got help from Julia's team to schedule the showings. After visiting 7-8 places, we found a place on StreetEasy, and we loved it after seeing it in person! *Offer stage* Once we decided we wanted to put in an offer, she moved very quickly and effectively to make sure we got the place. Julia recommended that we offer the asking price since the market was hot and we loved the place. We decided to follow her advice. We saw the place on Saturday, and Julia put the offer in on Sunday. On Monday, she recommended a great attorney who helped us get the paperwork done in 4 business days. During the offer process, we faced a tough decision because, on Friday, the seller said they got another offer above the asking price and asked us to drop the appraisal clause. We consulted with Julia and the attorney that she recommended, but we ultimately went with the advice of another person, who said that we should negotiate the appraisal clause so that we don't take on the full risk. This worked! Luckily, the seller accepted the offer. The seller really liked us and really liked working with Julia. I believe this played a key role in us getting our place, along with our good financial standing. In 6 days, we went from seeing the apartment to signing the contract! *Closing process* Julia laid out the steps that need to happen after the offer was accepted. We bought a co-op, so there was a board application and approval process, which Juestina (Julia's associate) helped us with. It took a long 3.5 months to close (mostly due to the mortgage and board approval process), but it all worked out! And Julia was a comforting partner throughout the whole experience. Thank you, Julia and Juestina! *BONUS:* After we moved in, Julia also bought us some champagne to celebrate!
From the moment we had our first introduction call, I knew Julia would find us a home. When we finally narrowed down to two incredible places, she was supportive, informative, and extremely patient with us. She never pushed, never overpromised, and definitely overdelivered! We couldn't be happier in our new home and couldn't have done it without Julia and her incredible team. Thank you!
Julia is the "Suze Orman" of real estate! She knows her stuff, but better yet, she knows how to share her knowledge with her buyers and sellers! I was in the dark about New York City real estate, but Julia made me see the light and make the right decision.
