Sales history and reviews published on Shirin’s Zillow agent profile.
Every listing is online. What you need is someone who reads the building, pushes the other side, and tells you plainly when a deal isn't worth it.
Building finances, board requirements, assessments and pricing problems, explained before you commit.
Condos, co-ops, townhouses and multi-family buildings across Manhattan and Brooklyn, from $415K to $3.3M.
I handle the strategy, communication and negotiation myself. In English or Hindi.
Three different jobs — pick yours
We start with the real monthly number: mortgage, maintenance or common charges, taxes and closing costs. Then an honest read on each building, an offer priced to win without overpaying, and one person coordinating the attorney, lender, board package and closing.
Plan your home search
Priced against what actually closed in your building and neighborhood, because a listing that sits loses leverage. You’ll know which improvements return money and what every offer leaves you with after transfer taxes and fees before you decide.
Get a number you can plan around
Real units that are still available, and a straight answer on what your budget gets in each neighborhood. You’ll know upfront what income, credit and documents a landlord will ask for, which fees are legitimate, and how to get your application in first.
See what's real and availableMost people call me somewhere between curious and committed. Either is fine — the first step costs nothing.
Fifteen minutes on the phone. Where you are, what you want, what's in the way.
Your realistic options, the numbers involved, the risks and the smartest next step. Written down, not implied.
Showings, offers, negotiation, board package, closing. You hear from me before you have to ask.
