Testimonials

Testimonial from Randi and David

Our journey toward buying our home wasn’t easy, but we got through it with great success because we had both of you by our side every step of the way. From the bottom of our hearts, thank you for all the work you put in for us over these past few months. We could not have done this without your expertise, patience, and guidance. Thank you for all you’ve done for us. And as a big bonus – we formed a special friendship!

1.26.23
Testimonial from Susan L.

Dear Susan,

The closing, as you know by now, was successfully completed this afternoon. I just wanted to thank you and Michael for all your help and professionalism in making the sale happen. You were straight and clear with me all through the ups and downs – and your guidance was excellent throughout.

I know you understand that for me this has been bittersweet. But “the team of Susans” worked wonderfully and I am really grateful.

 

1.26.23
Testimonial from Susan Oh

Susan and Michael, Thank you again! This could not have gone so smoothly without you. Both of you are awesome at what you do and thank you for pulling us through this one at the end.

 

1.14.22
Testimonial from Rick Cappiello

You and Michael did a great job for us and if I can ever help with a reference or recommendation just let me know.  Your strategy of getting the place down to a clean bare-bones appearance, without the need for staging, plus timing it to go up for sale after Labor Day really paid off.  My cousins and I are very pleased with the outcome.

2.23.21
Testimonial from Stewart

I’m so relieved to have this done, and I much appreciate the good service and good relationship enjoyed in working with you throughout approximately 9 months since I first reached out.  You’re both top-rate professionals, and that counts for a lot when selling.  Be well and stay safe.  Keep helping NYC recover from the setbacks dealt to it.

10.26.20
Testimonial from Spencer T.

It was a great pleasure to meet Susan and Michael. They did a fabulous job in representing us in our closing, and so I extend our warmest gratitude and appreciation from our entire family here. We lucked out!

3.7.19
Testimonial from Tracy & Judy

Words alone cannot express the gratitude for all of the time and effort you both put forth helping us secure the new apartment. Wow! What a project, we all never thought it would be so much drama.

That being said, a million times thank you to both of you. You both did everything and anything and we are extremely grateful! Cannot wait to celebrate once we are in and settled.

1.25.19
Testimonial from Micheline L.

Just a short note to say THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOU for all your hard effort, work and the little extras you did to make our lives easier.  It’s been a long road but we can now all breathe a sigh of relief.  Put your feet up, have a cocktail and enjoy your reward.

You are fabulous and we’ll have no hesitation in recommending you to anyone who’s looking for an apartment.

10.1.18
Testimonial from Jeffrey Linton

I chose Susan and Michael Abrams to represent the sale of my mother’s Upper East Side apartment, because they are very knowledgeable about the NYC market generally and this neighborhood specifically. They’re a great team – possessing the 3 R’s of real estate agents, being Responsive, Respectful and Realistic. They produced an excellent marketing package and were very professional and helpful throughout the entire selling process. Susan’s legal background helped prepare me for each step, and they both have such winning personalities it’s not surprising buyers and agents feel so comfortable with them. Susan and Michael work hard to deliver the strongest value the market can bear, and they are an absolute pleasure to work with.

1.25.17
Testimonial from Lanny Oppenheim

I am very appreciative of your professionalism and your willingness to go beyond the call of duty.

6.10.16
Testimonial from Charles J. Bird

I was very pleased by the professionalism demonstrated by Susan and Michael. In fact, it was noted by a number of shareholders that they were the most professional of any brokers who have worked in the building.

9.10.15
Testimonial from Margo and Monika

Thank you both for your patience, expertise and for making what could have been quite tedious (for us anyhow) an almost pleasant experience!  We are most appreciative of all your many efforts.

And thank you for that very lovely champagne!  We will enjoy it in the not too distant future and certainly drink a toast to Susan and Michael!

Testimonial from Dean Borg

Susan and Michael have been GEMS! They were terrific professionals – best in class. My family is truly appreciate and I will refer all my NY friends and colleagues.

 

6.23.11
Testimonial from Glen Siegel

I certainly would recommend Susan and Michael Abrams. I am a Real Estate Investor and we retain them to represent us for our high end apartments and properties in Manhattan, with great results.

I have come to rely on their advice, including their pricing guidance and thoughtful ideas on marketing our units (i.e. renovations if necessary, or simply moving a piece of furniture or staging an apartment).

I also cannot overstate the importance that I know every apartment they handle for me will be exposed to the entire market and brokers will be encouraged to show the unit and co-broker as they enjoy an excellent reputation and relationship with other brokers. Michael and Susan make showing appointments for buyers and the brokerage community VERY accessible.

I recommend them without hesitation to many friends of mine, who are important client/RE investors and I have never been disappointed.

 

8.17.10
Testimonial from Brooke Weiner

It would be my pleasure to recommend The Abrams. My first interaction with them was in 2004 when my husband and I were looking to purchase a large apartment on the Upper East Side. We were very particular with all our criteria and not willing to compromise. Susan understood right away what we wanted and did not waste any of our time showing us apartments that did not meet most of our demands. She was very patient and affable during our long search process, met us to view our apartment during an open house which was full despite a major snowstorm, and right away there were 6 bids over ask. Knowing that we really wanted this space, Susan worked with the selling broker to ensure that our package and offer were the best while ensuring that we did not overpay. Her excellent negotiating skills and tenacity paid off as we are now in a beautiful apartment that is very desirable.

More recently we have started to purvey the market again for a possible upgrade and again Susan and Michael  have been very patient showing us only apartments that meet our stringent criteria. They have an excellent pulse on the market and have been great at advising us on what is good value and what might be over-priced. Additionally, they have been great in assessing the current worth of our apartment if we were to move.

In summary, Susan and Michael are a great team and I would certainly recommend them for any residential transaction that someone is considering.

6.11.09
Testimonial from Elizabeth and Todd Cosenza

Todd and I enjoyed working with Susan and Michael and very much appreciated all of their guidance on both our buy and sale. We worked with a number of brokers, each time not to our satisfaction, before finding Susan and Michael. It really is a testament to their hard work and skill that we stayed with them (and that they were able to deal with us as well). We will certainly refer all our friends and colleagues to Susan and Michael, and will stay in touch with them about our renovation project as it unfolds. And of course, they will be invited over to see the finished product, which they will have to sell for us in 3-5 years.
