Testimonials
“I met Nol when searching for a condo in the Williamsburg area. My experience with him was great! He put together a very thorough list of potential condos that fit my budget and carefully planned out a viewing schedule that fit in with my crazy work schedule. He was always super responsive any time I had questions and would always remember to follow up on questions I had asked while on tours. I’d say the process of buying a condo in NYC has always stressed me out, but Nol made it super simple and easy which helped me think clearly about what I was searching for. ”
“Nol helped me buy my first home. The process is difficult for everyone, but Nol made it smooth and stress-free. He arranged every viewing, worked within my schedule, and guided me through the process at every step. He was very responsive throughout, and I wouldn’t have been able to purchase my first home without him.”
“We’ve had the pleasure of working with Nol on our search for a home in the city. Although the process can be a stressful one, Nol has a very even-keeled, calming demeanor. He’s always been responsive to our questions and requests. He also understands that the housing search is inherently personal, which is why he’s been thoughtful about presenting us with listings that conform to our preferences. Finally, Nol tries his best to be a sounding board for us and a strong advocate when necessary. ”
“ I have been working with Nol to find me find me a dream home in Brooklyn since last winter. Being a prospective single first home owner, Nol understands my nervousness and has been very supportive through this process. He has taken the time out to understand my personality and my specific requirements while working with me through the process. What I like the most about Nol is how he makes the effort in getting to know his clients so they feel supported while making a huge decision and milestone in their lives. He has been extremely supportive of my decisions during this process and while the process of making an offer can be stressful, Nol has handled that with ease. Moreover, Nol is very respectful to work with. He hasn’t shown up even a minute late for any of our viewings. I highly recommend Nol.”
“Imanol was outstanding, a true professional who is savvy, knowledgable, hard-working, and really goes the extra mile to understand exactly what it is that you’re looking for in your dream home. His attention to detail and local knowledge are impressive, and he really took the time to put together a curated list of amazing apartments that all fit the bill exactly, each one better than the next! He made the entire process easy and seamless. I’ve definitely found my oasis and don’t think I could have done it without him!”
“Nol was fantastic. We blazed through dozens of apartments, quickly found one that ticked all my boxes, and ultimately closed at a rate I was very pleased with.”
“Nol worked with me on finding my first apartment. His expertise, advocacy and high quality network were critical in empowering me to make a decision as a first-time homebuyer in a nebulous NYC market. I would recommend him as an excellent realtor to anyone looking to access real estate and want a true partner in their housing search”
“I didn’t know a single person here or anything about the city. Imanol walked me through every step of the process, he held my hand while I learned the process, he heard what I wanted, was flexible, and helped me find my oasis. I couldn’t be happier, I also said he’s stuck with me because when I do this again, I couldn’t imagine working with anyone else. What a true pleasure. Also, he showed me how to use the subway!”
“Imanol went above and beyond to satisfy our demands. He was communicative, good-natured, and understanding every step of the way.”
