Garfield Realty Corp Review

As a former real estate agent from a neighboring Park Slope agency, I have to give kudos to Garfield Realty for being such a personable, friendly office in what can be a very cut-throat market. I worked with Elizabeth Kohen to co-broke a deal and was so grateful for her hard work, professionalism, and kindness, even when dealing with a difficult client. I have since referred people to her, only to receive rave reviews. Not only is she an excellent agent who really knows the market, but she has the personal touch that makes the sometimes stressful process of buying a house, a great experience. Her dedication and the personal attention she gives to her clients are what makes her the agent you'll want to work with.

Peter Ashe Review

I had an excellent experience with Peter Ashe real estate services! Specifically, I dealt with Ami Hen, a consummate professional and all around good person. Mr. Hen accepted me as a client despite me having a rather unorthodox and challenging situation. He worked efficiently and professionally to secure my apartment and pulled hard for me to get Management to allow several exceptions. He was reachable well into the late evening hours, answering all phone calls and emails.  My lease was finalized within days of viewing the apartment and even after I moved in, Mr. Hen answered my calls and addressed issues that, in all fairness, should have gone to Management.

While Mr. Hen clearly understands the business side he also has a great personal touch and related to me on a very real human level. He dealt with me not simply as another client but as a real person with real life uniquely personal circumstances; that was the piece de resistance! An added bonus is the Peter Ashe office, done up in beautifully minimalist post-modern decor, I love loved visiting!! Good job Peter Ashe! Great job Ami Hen.

Nelson's List Review

Just moved from Chicago to Park Slope, and this couldn't have been a better/easier experience! Found Nelson's listing through Craigslist, and quickly realized how quality each of his listings were-- and in our price range! Long story short, we secured our Park Slope apartment from Chicago, without seeing it for ourselves (had a friend check it out). Risky, yes, but Nelson was incredibly helpful, informative, flexible, and responsive the entire time. We are so pleased with our apartment, and couldn't have asked for a better experience! Looking for a new place is stressful enough-- and Nelson completely took care of everything we needed, which made the process not only bearable, but easy.I would recommend Nelson's services to my closest friends and family.

Perfect Quarters Review

this is great small real estate firm the real estate broker Jacqueline really knows the ins and outs of real estate, she helped me sell my home that was underwater & educated me about the whole process every step of the way! I was beyond grateful to learn all I didn't know about real estate and get out of my current situation. I only wish I knew her when I bought my property in the first place, I wouldn't have been in this bad situation. I can say this because I was able to buy something I could afford during this whole mess with her amazing knowledge of the industry ... the right way! My wife and I are forever grateful.

Mansour Abu-Rahmeh Review

I cannot say enough positive things about Mansour. It was sort of by chance that I came across him and from day one when he picked me up on a lonely corner in the pouring rain to go view our first property together, I was hooked. Not only is he a complete joy to be with, but he knows his stuff and is entirely honest and straightforward at all times and a fierice negotiator. He goes the extra mile on every item and is readily available when any questions come up (and you know there will be a lot of those with the involved process of buying a new home). If you are looking to secure your new home quickly and with as little confusion and delay as possible, Mansour is your guy. And if you are new to DC and the home buying process, do NOT look further than him. Not only will you gain a great realtor but perhaps a fantastic friend in the process.
