“I would recommend Michael Comandini to anyone looking to purchase a home in a city. Having heard countless stories of difficult market conditions, I wasn’t sure what to expect. I can truly say that Michael completely changed my prospective. Even with Michael’s busy schedule, he always made me feel as if I was his only client. From day 1 he was very helpful and knowledgeable. He spent countless hours corresponding to my families many questions and concerns making sure we were completely comfortable every step of the way. He kept us up to date with market conditions and found us the place of our dreams several weeks later. What really surprised me most is how connected Michael has been after we closed. I would highly recommend Michael for your apartment search. ”

“Having previously used Michael to find my first apartment in city last year, I confidently used his service again for my first home purchase. Michael works smart and efficiently to help find my new home given my tough criteria. Being in the country with a green card really limited my options, but Michael came through using his network to find me a perfect off market sponsor unit. The apartment has everything I was looking for and even has an outdoor space. Despite the property being off market, Michael was successful in negotiating the price down and getting me the best terms.

After finding me the apartment, Michael helped out with all of the paperwork. At all times, Michael was very accessible, informative and patient, making him a gem-agent to work with. Highly recommended. ”

“As an international buyer it would have been impossible to purchase the apartment we wanted without Michael’s help. His professionalism and work ethic is so different than any other agent out there. He skyped with us abroad innumerous times, photographed the entire apartment for us, and facilitated everything. He is a one-stop shop, provided us with his whole network including a lawyer. Michael was always available 24/7 by mobile and email. After our purchase Michael quickly rented out the apartment. We are so happy with his work that we are now looking for a second property with him. Thanks Michael!”

“Michael is one of the best real estate agents I''ve met. He understands when to be patient and when to be assertive, and his negotiating skills are terrific on both the buy and sell side on the transaction (I worked with him on both).

Michael and I worked together for over a year until we found my dream home. Michael was then able to negotiate a price lower than I was willing to pay. We breezed right by the co-op board and things could not have went smother.

After we found my new home, it was time to sell my old one. I was really impressed with Michael’s marketing strategy, which ended up getting me above my asking price. He was able to keep an even keel while dealing with a fairly problematic coop board. I would recommend him to anyone looking to buy, sell or rent. ”

“I can honestly say that I would not have found my apartment without my broker, Michael Comandini. He has guided me through the whole experience with excellent advice and a steady hand. He always went to bat for me when it counted most, and negotiated the best possible deal for the apartment that I now call my home.

What impressed me most about him is his combination of intelligence, dedication, and decency. On top of being a superb broker, Michael also happens to be a nice guy with excellent taste and a good sense of humor. In the whirlwind and complicated world of NYC real estate, he has made what could have been an arduous and frustrating process both enjoyable and educational.

I trusted Michael completely to look out for my best interests, and I thank him for a job well-done. His calm and reasoned demeanor, combined with a keen understanding of people and their needs, motives, and incentives, make him an astute negotiator who can get the best deal for his clients.

Michael is an excellent listener who quickly understood my needs and preferences. He distilled that understanding further as we looked at multiple apartments, and found several on which we bid. He wisely steered me toward good choices and away from some that were deceptively attractive, but could have proven disastrous in the long run.

He is extremely well informed about the inventory of properties in NYC and has great working relationships with other brokers. This made arranging viewings and learning important details relatively easy and fast. He has his finger on pulse of the real estate market in the City, and acts quickly and decisively when a great opportunity presents itself.

Michael is an excellent communicator. He always makes himself available to discuss any details or questions in person or via phone/email, and has an ability to break down complex and sophisticated concepts into clear and simple language. Additionally, he works with very capable and seasoned real estate attorneys, whose detailed examination of the details of the transaction helps prevent problems down the line.

In sum, Michael is a real asset to anyone looking to buy or sell a property. He is a pleasure to work with, and I would recommend him to my family and friends without any reservation. ”
