As
you can see on the recently sold page, we sometimes sell a "shell"
- a building with no windows, electric, plumbing, etc.. There is a real
knack to making certain that all parties involved in the sale of these
buildings stays focused, All
of our clients [and if you'ld like references, let us know] have done
spendid jobs with the properties they have purchased, but the one that
has achieved the most notariety to date has been the shell which we
sold in 2001 on 118th street. With
permission of the owners, below are some of the before and after images
of the property.

It's a lot
of work, as you can see....and not everyone is cut out to make the step from
a shell to a home.
Harlem is a neighborhood in transition...with people like this client moving
into Harlem, for it's diversity, culture, history, charm, and people.
My clients also end up with something that most other people in Manhattan dream
of, but never achieve....affordable space.
And let me tell you one more thing...it may not be as affordable now as it was
five years ago, but like a painting,
you don't buy it because it will be worth more tomorrow...you buy it because
you love it.
Please call us or e-mail if we can find your dream house in Manhattan a reality......Thanks for visiting the web site!
