Working with Marwan was an absolute game-changer in my home-buying journey. Out of the five agents I worked with, he stood out as the most consistent, communicative, and dedicated to my goals—not just the sale. From start to finish, Marwan was professional, knowledgeable, and incredibly resourceful, always listening to my wants and needs while guiding me through every step of the process. He wasn’t just my broker; he was my advocate. Marwan fought for my best interests, negotiated wonderfully to save me money, and provided honest yet optimistic guidance throughout. He took ownership of the process, ensuring everything stayed on track, problem-solving at every turn, and making what could have been an overwhelming experience feel seamless. His deep understanding of the NYC market meant he showed me places that truly fit what I was looking for—not just what was easiest to sell. He also has access to some of the best hidden gems across the city. Any time I needed a recommendation, whether it was for lenders, attorneys, or inspectors, he came through with top-tier referrals. As a first-time buyer, I truly appreciated his patience, grace, and openness to feedback. I honestly wouldn’t have been able to close without his expertise and drive. If you're looking to buy a home in New York City, I strongly recommend Marwan—he’s the broker who puts his clients first, every single time.

Hillel Fried is a great professional, who over a period of a few weeks became a very close friend and guide to my wife and I, even as we searched for a Manhattan apartment for ourselves. For starters, this was no easy task because we were just returning from an overseas assignment, I was transiting to a retirement of sorts, and our financial affairs were, to put it mildly, in some disarray! We came upon HiIlel as we looked in on a co-op, having just been outbid on another where we were left feeling the realtor had let us down (showing not enough interest or energy on our behalf, and keeping us under-informed)y. Right from the start, Hillel struck us as extremely friendly, highly knowledgeable about the city and various streets and buildings, and more than willing to happily put in some serious hard work on our behalf . Most importantly he turned out to be someone who cares deeply about the customer, going to great lengths to fully understand our needs and requirements, and providing a level of input and feedback that was absolutely spot on to manage our interests and anxieties. If anybody is looking for a high-energy, extremely friendly, exceptionally knowledgeable, never-give-up realtor who will go all out for them, Hillel is it!. We have absolutely no hesitation in recommending him in the strongest possible way. Good luck to you going forward Hillel, and we do look forward to staying in touch, making as many referrals to you from our friends as we possibly can !!

Marwan Ayad helped us find and purchase a coop apartment in Queens. He recommended several beautiful apartments in Jackson Heights, Flushing, and Forest Hills. When we decided on the one in Forest Hills, he led us carefully through the maze of paperwork required to complete the purchase. All the while, he maintained a positive and friendly outlook. He was always attentive to our needs. He was prompt in our appointments and went out of his way to help us when we needed it. We would strongly recommend him for anyone looking to purchase a home in the New York City area
