"Jean-François is extremely knowledgeable in what he does and is very understanding of his clients' situations. Always responsive and always punctual. I cannot imagine an agent that could have explained the process and details as well as he did. Highly recommended if you are looking for someone with integrity and reliable."

Susan Linder

"We could not have asked for a better experience. He is knowledgeable, professional, patient, honest, responsive, genuine, and had great suggestions. We now consider Jean-François a friend and highly recommend him to anyone searching for their next home!"

"Jean-François was an excellent broker. He was incredibly responsive to my constant questioning via both text and email, and reassuring every time I started freaking out. The process was very smooth, fast, and exactly as he described it. Overall, the best experience I've had with a broker in this city."

"Jean-François is a very professional, responsive broker with a friendly and calm personality and incredibly good manners. He was never pushy, instead he listened, understood our needs and came up with a solution. We would be happy to work with him again and recommend him to friends or colleagues. His work was excellent!"

Nicole Keller

"Jean-François is hands down the best broker I've worked with in the city. The level of customer service he provides is unparalleled. My husband and I were looking for a 2nd home in Manhattan but hadn't decided which neighborhood downtown. Jean-François took the time to show us many options in all different neighborhoods over a period of a month. He helped us narrow down to the types of buildings and amenities that best suited our needs. He is kind and accommodating, never pushy. We plan to work with again for any of our future real estate needs and will highly recommend him to our friends and network."

Kay McCauley

"As a life-long renter and owner of properties in Manhattan, I was surprised and delighted at the first-rate attention Jean-François applied. His personalized and detailed search for the appropriate locale and ambiance on my behalf led me to a quick contract. He is well-mannered, persistent and attentive to all aspects of New York real estate. I would recommend him as the perfect agent to any prospective client in search of excellence and business experience."

Anne Schubert

"Jean-François was invaluable in easing my move from Chicago to New York. He was very knowledgeable about different areas and buildings and diligent in tracking down answers to additional questions that arose. J-F showed me a variety of units across the price range I had in mind. He understood my priorities quickly and gave thoughtful advice. Unlike many brokers out there, he was never pushy or persuasive to serve his own interest. I have recommended him to friends already, and I encourage anyone looking for a broker to reach out to Jean-François."

"I needed to find an apartment in a very short amount of time in Manhattan and Jean-François not only found the perfect match for me in one of the most desirable neighborhoods in the city, but he also helped me through every step of the process. I am so grateful for his help and he is a wonderful person to rely on with excellent skills in his profession."

Jeff Soffer

"Jean-François (JF) was fantastic throughout my entire apartment search. I only had 48 hours in NYC to find and sign for an apartment and was able to do so with the help of JF. He took me through numerous units that fit my criteria, and once I found one I liked, JF took care of the rest!
JF was professional, friendly, and hard-working throughout the entire process. I greatly enjoyed working with him and I would HIGHLY recommend him."

Fadi Massih

"I was referred to Jean-François by a friend and was told that he would be very helpful. I never expected that moving to a new city would be that straight forward. I had a tight timeline, a strict budget and very specific requirements. I was impressed by J-F's professionalism, integrity and respect of my time and requirements. He was able to provide me with exactly what I was looking for. His advice was extremely valuable and I would certainly refer him to friends and family in the future."

Whitney Andersen & Ben Green

"I was very overwhelmed until I met Jean-François. Relocating cross-country was a huge undertaking in itself and finding an apartment in the big city was just daunting. I was fortunate enough to meet Jean-François, who eased my concerns and made the overall process efficient. He is the upmost professional and his knowledge of all the neighborhoods of interest made making our decision painless. If we are ever in need of an apartment or possibly purchasing something in the future, he will be the first person we call. Thank you again!"

Tori Grant

"Jean-François made sure that every second I spent with him counted. He was very organized and always on time. As we looked around at different apartments, he took notes on what I liked and what I didn't like and put a lot of effort into finding an apartment that was perfect for me. He made the searching process very simple and followed up with me many times throughout the year (including a very nice holiday card!). I was and continue to be very impressed with his professionalism and the next time I need an apartment, I will DEFINITELY be contacting him!"

Melanie Spergel

"Jean-François made the process very quick and painless. He always responds to emails immediately and answers any and all questions. I would be very likely to recommend Jean-François."

Jessica Shriftman

"Jean-François is unlike any other broker I have ever met—in the best possible way. I can't recommend him enough!"

Scott Arnel

"Jean-François' professionalism made the entire process from start to finish an enjoyable experience. With so many brokers out there, having a broker whom we could have complete trust in was a must. I highly recommend Jean-François, whether looking to rent or buy."

Matthieu Silberstein

"Jean-François was great—efficient, incredibly responsive, calm and very reassuring to my crazy pregnant wife (she approves me saying that!). Working with him made the usually painful process of finding an apartment in New York City almost fun! We were relocating from Los Angeles and J-F found us an apartment in one week. HIGHLY recommend him."

Caroline Bal

"Jean-François is an excellent broker and the best I have ever come across—highly recommend!!! He listens to what his clients are looking for and only shows apartments that meet their criteria. Jean-François was so thoughtful that he noticed the types of listings I was inquiring about on StreetEasy and reached out to meet to share some listings that weren't officially on the market but seemed to match my interests (doorman, new, West Village—all of which he picked up on my inquiries). Fantastic broker, great client service, and an all-around nice guy, who you will want to be your friend after spending time with him on your apartment search!"

Liam Galvin

"Jean-François is a fantastic broker. I had started to worry that I'd never find anything in Manhattan that I could afford or want but he managed to find me a spacious, bright two bedroom downtown co-op apt at a great price. I couldn't be happier. He expertly guided me through the entire co-op buying process and made everything very easy. I highly recommend Jean-François, he is an absolute pleasure to work with."

Qizhi Wong

"I found Jean-François on streeteasy and reached out to him; the rest is history. We managed to view and secure the apartment on the day itself. Moral of the story: be smart, work with Jean-François. You won't regret it."

Ron Frey

"J-F was extremely responsive and helpful, even after we moved in (helped answer questions and coordinate with building management). I highly recommend working with J-F. My wife and I couldn't be happier with our apartment or the experience."

Sarah Liebel

"Jean-François helped my husband and I rent our apartment out during the worst rental time of the year. We needed to move out quickly and were stressed to be carrying our old rental property and wanted to find a new tenant ASAP. He not only found a great family to take it, he did so during February, and didn’t even complain about all of my pestering questions. He’s a class act."

Mary Blanchard

"Jean-François is an extremely knowledgeable and professional real estate agent who is trustworthy and a pleasure to work with. He was consistently responsive and helpful throughout the process of finding an apartment. I would highly recommend Jean-François!"

Jessie Cohen

"I loved working with Jean-François! Professional, sincere, accommodating."
