Offices · 111 Fifth Avenue, New York · 138 Main Street, Sag Harbor

Within three days of listing our apartment we had an offer at full asking price. The team beautifully staged our apartment and was so professional throughout. I'd unequivocally recommend them to anyone who wants an easy and successful sale.

Lisa G. · Seller

In an extremely competitive Tribeca market, the team helped us find the apartment of our dreams. They worked seamlessly around our schedule — organizing viewings, preparing us thoroughly for interviews, and proactively proposing solutions whenever challenges came up. Everything was handled with calm, clarity, and the highest level of professionalism.

Bartolini Lab · Buyer · Tribeca

Decades of real estate transactions, and this was without a doubt the most relaxed and supported I have ever felt. Working with the team was a dream — responsive, insightful, patient, positive, knowledgeable.

Deeper diligence on every property

Built for buyers.

Most agents tell a buyer what a property is listed for. Justin tells them what it is actually worth — and what the marketing leaves out.

  • A new development will block this view
What the listing shows
What the listing shows you...

Drag to reveal what deeper diligence surfaces.

Comparative pricing

Comp analyses drawn from public records and proprietary data, tailored to the specific property — not the generic neighborhood average.

Custom diligence reports

A structured workflow that surfaces building history, financial condition, renovation considerations, and risk before they become surprises.

Discreet representation

Off-market access through the Douglas Elliman network and Justin's lifelong New York connections, with the discretion these transactions require.

II.
A strategy created specifically for your property

Built for sellers.

Most listings receive a template treatment: photos, a one-paragraph description, a slot on the major portals. Justin builds a campaign around the specific property — including a custom property website that lets serious buyers experience the home before they arrive.
