Honestly I’m kicking myself for not going with Gene when I initially listed my co-op. From personal experience believe me when I say ...A good broker is hard to find, and is the main factor in getting your property sold!!!!After an awful experience with my initial broker, I contacted Gene and explained the problems I had encountered, he then provided me with insight into how things work and the issues with switching brokers before a contract was expired. As soon as I was able to, I re-listed my property with Gene. What a difference a good broker makes, and Gene is a GREAT Broker!!!!!After having been on the market for 8 months, Gene came along and had an offer in 3 WEEKS!!!!! He knows the market, doesn’t feed you pipe dreams, and goes above and beyond to get your property sold!!! Gene is extremely knowledgeable & professional and is able to find a practical solution to any issues that may arise. He is really Amazing and on top of things. I wholeheartedly recommend Gene to my family and friends and anyone who is looking to buy/sell property!!!!!

Highly recommended!!!! Gene Keyser sold our 2 bedroom apartment in Park Slope for way more than I thought we could get, and he helped us buy a gorgeous townhouse in Bed-Stuy!! We met Gene at an open house that he was hosting when my husband and I were spying on other properties to figure out how much our apartment was worth. He seemed very knowledgeable yet down to earth, and genuinely interested in making us feel more comfortable and acquainted with the apartment we were checking out. So we decided to invite Gene to our apartment to help us get an idea of how much we could get for it. Gene was the third broker we had over, and easily the most prepared and professional. He offered us a very solid plan for getting our apartment on the market when we were ready, and asked a lot of questions including where we were planning on moving. Well we were stunned to realize in our talk with him that we needed to sell our apartment and close on it before we could buy another place. It hadn't even occurred to us for some reason. Gene assured us that he could modify his sales plan to find us a buyer that would be willing to let us stay for some time in our apartment after it was sold. It was very scary for us, but we entrusted ourselves to him. A LOT FOLLOWED...and here we are in our 3 story 2 family brownstone, loving life.

My partner and I used Gene Keyser to list and sell our home, and he helped us find the new house we transitioned into. We were really pleased with Gene's professionalism, candor, and skills. The deals were both relatively smooth compared to how the process was when we bought our home place just a few years ago, through a competing broker.At the closing table, our laywer (who is also a long time family friend), explained that Gene worked his magic behind the scenes on several occasions to overcome numerous issues, and that he rarely worked with agent as capable or caring about their clients.We recommend him to everyone.

I can't recommend Gene highly enough. My wife and I were first-time buyers looking for an apartment in the craziness that is the Brooklyn real estate market. The process stretched on for months during which there were times we felt very discouraged, but Gene was always there with patience, support, and wisdom. Gene knows all the angles of this business and enjoys sharing his knowledge with you so you can make informed decisions. I went into this completely ignorant about how to buy a home, and thanks to Gene now feel very knowledgeable. And if you need it - Gene will get you out of a jam! The apartment we ended up buying we almost lost due to a misunderstanding with the seller's broker (not Gene’s fault). Gene got on his phone, worked his magic, and now we are living here happy as can be.

I have worked with Gene on two separate occasions and honestly don't know what I would have done without his expertise, creative solutions and willingness to do whatever it takes to get the job done. He is a tireless resource and source of support on so many levels. I truly felt like I had a partner in the process. He has twice rented my house, each time making every possible effort to show my house in the best possible light and forging a meticulous vetting process to find amazing tenants who would take of my home as if it were their own. One tenant stayed for four years and the new tenants have signed a two year lease and have already put my mind at ease with their thoughtfulness and communication. As a true testament to Gene's honesty, professionalism and diligence, he weeds through each prospective tenant's application with a fine tooth comb to find and address any red flags. At the risk of me rejecting a potential tenant, he honestly communicated his findings, saving me from potential trouble down the road. I can't say enough good things about Gene. I would never use anyone else.
