Bio
After obtaining his license in 2009, John grew a successful business based on originally branding himself as a Harlem agent who lived and worked in the neighborhood. The geographic area was his original focus, and over the years, John’s business has grown by referrals and word-of-mouth and how he covers several areas of the city and several types of asset classes including Townhouses (SRO, Class-A, and Class-2A, Class M and others) Condominiums (Primary homes, investment property, pied-a-terre) Co-ops (Pied-a-terre, primary home, and HDFC), Commercial Leasing (Storefronts, retail, office, manufacturing) Development sites (land-leasing, land sales, and new development marketing)
Due to his original focus in Harlem, John has become known as one of the top townhouse brokers in Upper Manhattan. This skillset is transferable to many other areas of the city, since deals in Harlem and Washington Heights tend to have some of the most unique and complex situations to overcome. His contact list of architects, expediters, attorneys, and mortgage lenders plays an important role in his success and the success of his clients.
John is frequently quoted in the press as a reference and expert in the Harlem marketplace. He prides himself on doing a great job all of his clients, no matter where they might be.
He lives in Harlem with his wife, Carol, and his son, Liam, in a multi-family building they purchased in 2015.
For fun, you can find him biking around the neighborhood, playing golf, or hanging out at one of the many parks the city has to offer.
