TESTIMONIALS

“Haley Rutherford''s work on the sale of my apartment went well beyond my expectations! I have worked with other real estate representatives for previous apartment sales, but there simply is no comparison to what Haley offers and delivers! I am not overstating it when I say Haley is simply exceptional and the following exemplifies it: When it appeared the sale was eminent, the buyer''s bank withdrew its commitment to the loan until Haley stepped in, found out what the bank''s issue was, worked with the condo management, obtained a letter from the condo''s engineer and resolved the entire issue directly with the bank! Only an intelligent, dedicated and hardworking expert in the field with outstanding communication skills and professionalism, could have resolved this! Haley has it all and I am confident that I could not have found a better agent! Haley not only communicated her thoughts regarding the market and negotiations throughout the entire process and resolved a bank''s issue enabling the sale, but she saved me an enormous amount of time by summarizing the condo''s requirements and providing me with an excellent referral for a real estate attorney who took care of all details of the sale at a very reasonable rate. I could not have been happier from start to finish!”

“I used Edward K to find my new office location in the spring of 21. Edward found me a location in the same neighborhood that I currently used for 1/3 less rent cost and 50% more space! He helped me negotiate with the landlord, and I love my new space! More importantly and the purpose for this review was that he was highly attentive to my emails and calls and concerns, and worked hard to get it done in the timeline that he promised. Highly recommend this firm.”

“In the spring of 2023, I was trying to decide how to sell my fathers apartment, which had been vacant and seldom used for many years. I was approached by a buyer who lived in the building but since I live out of state, I decided that I needed the help of an experienced NYC broker, familiar with the building and neighborhood. I was introduced to Rich through another broker because of his expertise in the co-op. Rich offered to handle the negotiation and transaction at a reduced fee and also to assist me with emptying the apartment. I hired Rich and I could not have been happier. He provided excellent advice, negotiated a fair price for me and took care of everything, including dealing with the management company, clearing the apartment and managing the buyer who turned out to be more difficult than anticipated. He also coordinated packing and shipping items to me. Rich was a total professional. He was incredibly responsive and communicative, and being remote, this was so reassuring.. It would have been impossible to take on the task of selling the apartment without him. I would recommend him to anyone looking to sell an apartment in NYC - especially if you plan to do it remotely!”

“After working with two realtors that failed to meet expectations during a year on the market, I gave my listing to Rich Murray. He evaluated the apartment, gave me his recommendations for improvements that would give the apartment a brighter look, then personally coordinated the work at a minimal cost. He aggressively marketed and showed the apartment personally and within 30 days he had us under contract at a price close to the ask! Rich is a man of his word, he does what he says he is going to do and I would highly recommend working with him, he''s fantastic!”

“Navigating the tumultuous New York rental market was a breeze with the New Amsterdam Team. Marisol and Cecilia worked overtime to make sure that my partner and I found a home meeting each of the qualities we hoped to have in an apartment.”

“As an executor for my uncle''s estate, we were preparing to sell his condominium. It needed quite a bit of work and we were trying to determine how to proceed. We met with Rich and he presented a plan for painting the apt, refinishing the floors, replacing lighting fixtures and removing built ins- to make the apartment more "move in ready". We went with Rich''s plan and he hired the contractor, supervised the work and even advanced the cost. The results were impressive and we received an offer at the full asking price after the first open house! Rich did what he promised and delivered the results. I would highly recommend Rich Murray to anyone selling an apartment in NYC!”

“Marisol is hands down the best realtor I’ve worked with and anyone whose looking to buy/sell/lease in NYC should consider working with her. She has common sense, goes the extra mile and is an example of customer service excellence. I reached out Marisol in February to help me rent my furnished Chelsea townhouse while I travelled for a year. Not an easy task considering a premium price and plenty of inventory. In less than a month the apartment was rented full price with top tenants willing to take care of my house as I do. First, Marisol walked me through the process (including pricing, fees, times, etc.) to ensure clear expectations. In less than a week the listing was up with killer pics and copywriting(arranged by her). Prospects started calling right away and she handled me pre-qualified candidates. This made it easy for me and the co-op to decide the best tenant. After a week we had a qualified tenant willing to pay full price and an excited co-op to welcome the new tenant (sometimes the hardest stage of the process!) In the 3 weeks between finding the tenant and handling the keys, Marisol went the extra mile by helping me with time consuming tasks such as doing the inventory (as I was renting furnished), finding moving companies specialized in high end art and establishing the relationship with the new tenants. I’ve worked with more than 15 realtors in NYC and I couldn’t be more satisfied. She’s awesome and rest assured if you decide to work with Marisol you’re in the best hands.”
