Client Testimonials for Mark Weinstock
30 years in Manhattan. 17 years in residential sales. Hundreds of life-enriching transactions and it starts with a track record and a commitment so authentic you can't help but be inspired.
"I've spent my entire adult life in NYC—as an artist, a real estate specialist, and a quintessential New Yorker," explains Mark. "I know where all the significant deals are and how to bring them to fruition. I know all the best places to go, the culture, the nightlife, what those places used to be, and in many cases what they are going to be next. That's the benefit of being invested here for so long."
Add to that his trademark negotiating skills and it's no wonder Mark has become an 'agent for life' for the majority of his clientele. His expertise extends from the Financial District to Harlem, Brooklyn & Queens.
True to his downtown roots, Mark has also enjoyed success as an artist -- designing accessories and home furnishings that still garner rave reviews. When he's not sharing his love for the city, Mark can often be found relaxing at his Victorian farmhouse upstate. He holds degrees in psychology and fashion design from the Fashion Institute of Technology.

Mark provided an exemplary service from start to finish. He worked hard to market my apartment and tapped into his vast network to get many viewings. Mark negotiated a great deal and I would highly recommend him as he goes the extra mile.

I was referred to Mark Weinstock by a dear friend who told me that he would take care of me and that I would adore him and she was absolutely right! I was buying and selling at the same time and had another agent handling my sale (for political reasons in my former co-op) and I regretted making that choice because it was quickly evident that Mark was the more present, knowledgeable, kind and caring representative. We worked together for 10 months from start to finish and I always felt like I was his ultimate priority. His communication was always prompt, which was appreciated not only by me but by my seller''s agent as well. Purchasing a co-op is a very labor intensive process and he made each step very easy and took great pride in personally creating the most complete and comprehensive board application package for me. Throughout the process he referred every listing in my desired neighborhood (UWS) and price range, provided solid guidance, gave excellent advice and made a potentially stressful experience, pleasant and actually enjoyable! I would highly recommend Mark to handle a sale or purchase and would definitely work with him again

Last summer my boyfriend and I decided to invest in buying a home and were looking for an experienced, responsive agent to guide us through the process. Mark helped us settle on a property I was initially resistant toward as the 1.5 bathrooms needed some updating. However, he repeatedly pointed out the "bones" and the incredible views, space, and value. I soon realized he was right, and I am so happy that I trusted Mark''s instincts as I could not be happier with this home. We are also glad we purchased when we did as I''m sure someone else would have taken it in an instant. It was a relief to have Mark''s help in assembling a giant co-op board packet and guiding us through every step of the process -- I have no doubt that we passed our interview owing to our "rehearsal" practice with Mark. I expect to live at our home for a long time, but should we ever decide to sell, I know who to call. I will continue to recommend Mark''s services to friends and family, he is a true professional and it was a pleasure to work with him in our first home purchase.

Mark originally helped us find a rental. He navigated the co-op''s strange and intrusive requests so meticulously that we were accepted very quickly. That experience encouraged us to contact him when it came time to search for an apartment to buy. At every step of our journey, we encountered the stereotypical real estate industry people that fed off a transaction and moved on before it was finished. Mark and the attorney he recommended were the only 2 people we dealt with that provided good customer service. Mark was very in tune with our preferences and budget. He was able to help us at every point in the negotiation and closure. He was always available to advise us and to listen. Mark was a pleasure to work with, a rare professional in the real estate industry and very protective of his clients. We''re happy to be contacted by phone or email if you have any questions. Mark can give you our details.

We had the pleasure of working with Mark over the past 9 months in our quest to buy an apartment in Downtown and thanks to him; we now live in our dream home in the heart of Chelsea. Mark is relentless, resourceful, super-responsive, honest, and knowledgeable. The process of buying an apartment in Manhattan, one of the most competitive real estate markets in the world can be daunting but Mark always keeps a positive attitude and finds solutions. I believe that together, we actually visited every apartment available on the market that met with our needs. No matter how late in the night or early in the morning we contacted him with questions or concerns, he would always be there ready to help with a nice and pleasant attitude. From the beginning, Mark stood out from the pack as our favorite agent when we decided to work exclusively with him and we are now happy that he also became a friend and someone we can really count on. We highly recommend Mark Weinstock who exceeded our expectations.

We have had the pleasure of working with Mark Weinstock twice. 2 years ago we found out we were pregnant and needed a bigger place and were fortunate enough to find Mark. He was so helpful and considerate of our needs as new parents and had a keen sense of the market. He found an apt he thought we would love, and he was right! When it came time to sell our original apt we immediately contacted Mark. The real estate market had changed drastically but Mark was a beacon of positivity. From pricing, marketing, and vetting buyers, Mark was a diligent agent and worked tirelessly to sell our apt. Even after the sale contract was signed he was instrumental in getting the buyers Coop package prepared, which is no small task. We will never need to find another agent. He''s an automatic call. Most of all though- he''s just a very pleasant guy

As a buyer of one of Mark''s listings, I was extremely fortunate to work with him. He is honest, forthcoming and extremely helpful in every regard. He provided an in-depth understanding of all aspects of the real estate market. His personality, expertise and candor made buying an apartment, a normally tough process, seem easy. I highly recommend Mark Weinstock

Forget about a whole page of space, I think I will need an entire website to write my testimonial for Mark Weinstock! Our journey together as agent and client came to an end about a week ago when my husband and I moved into our dream apartment in our dream building. However, the friendship, caring and bond we developed will last a lifetime. Mark has spent the last year with us, in relentless effort to both sell our apartment as well as find us a newer and larger space. He had our apartment sold in 12 weeks which was amazing considering this market. We were VERY specific in what we wanted in our new apartment as well as what our budget allowed for, and although we hit some very frustrating bumps in the road along the way, Mark never wavered, meeting all of our criteria and doing so with a big smile, a sweet attitude and never faltering professionalism. No task was ever too big or too small, from emailing us listings at 4:00am (when most agents are sleeping) to changing my mood to a positive one when I was ready to give up. I would highly recommend Mark Weinstock.

Shaun helped me find my dream apartment! He listened to what I was after and patiently showed me many places til we honed in on the perfect one. Most importantly, he made the application process smooth and painless and was always available to answer questions very promptly. It was a pleasure to work with Shaun, would highly recommend him.

I connected with Fatima through a rental and sublet rental Facebook group. I reached out to her since in the last 5 years that I have been in NYC, I have never seen the market like this and it has been tricky getting in contact with anyone just to view an apartment or to apply. Fatima has been so communicative since day one, sending me virtual tours of the place and allowing me to see two units in person within a day of connecting. After reaching out to many landlords, brokers and real estate agents, she has been the only one the past few months that has given me a fast turn around of actually seeing a place and a chance to submit an application. She is very patient, communicative, a great listener. I would definitely recommend working with Fatima especially if you are new to NYC or even if you are just looking for a place to move. Thank you Fatima!
