Welcome Home

Working with Alta Real Estate throughout the home-buying process was a pleasure. They were consistently responsive to our communications, sensitive and mindful of our buying criteria and personal circumstances, and quickly became trusted advisors. They made sure we were comfortable with every step and optimized the experience for us personally and financially. We would highly recommend them too.

Parker was a great help throughout my first time home buying experience. He is very responsive and professional and I appreciated his strong negotiation skills.

I was recommended Robert through a mutual friend as my boyfriend and I were looking for a short term furnished unit in NYC for a work trip. This was no easy feat to find on our own two weeks out moving from Texas. Robert came back with options within a day, a was very friendly and responsive throughout the process. He also goes to the property and gave us a virtual tour. He continues to be helpful and advocate on our behalf with any questions/issues even after we signed the lease!! Really goes above and beyond, highly recommend.

I worked with Ali Shulman to purchase my first apartment in the LES. As a first time home buyer this process was new to me and Ali helped walk me through the different steps of home buying. She spent countless hours running around Manhattan with me looking at different properties until I landed on the current apartment. Ironically enough, I originally told Ali I didn’t want to see this apartment, but she encouraged me to take a look just in case. I fell in love with the apartment as it had a large outdoor space that I had been hoping for and it was in a new development. Ali guided me through the negotiating process and ended up getting me a great d...

Robert is an excellent realtor who gave me 100% of his energy and attention when I was looking for my new home. Once I made an offer on my apartment he negotiated on my behalf, answered all my questions, and seamlessly prepared and submitted the board package. From my initial interest in buying New York City real estate all the way through the closing Robert was responsive and available. He made what would be a confusing and stressful experience into an informed and pleasant one. I am writing this review from my new dream apartment--all thanks to Robert!

I first worked with Parker to find an NYC studio apartment last minute as I had two weeks left before I had to be in the city for work. Parker was very helpful and was able to arrange video tours, as well as help screen a number of properties that fit my needs. After deciding on one, he helped negotiate the terms and was able to get me my preferred move-in date and some fixes to the unit that he noticed looked off. I then used Parker a second time when I needed to arrange for a lease takeover. Although my landlord was not very responsive, Parker was able to find me a new tenant and arrange all the paperwork and negotiations required to make the lea...

Alta Real Estate is fantastic to work with because they are “no-nonsense” kind of people who will tell you exactly how things stand and can substantiate their assertions with real data. They are extraordinarily efficient and work at “New York speed.” In my case, we were in a situation of multiple offers and they were my ally in thinking strategically about which deal made the most sense.

We called upon Alta Real Estate's help when we were selling my apartment and sure enough, Alta Real Estate delivered. They took care of everything from getting the paperwork from the management company to negotiating with prospective buyers. They also connected me with an excellent attorney and another broker out of state. The whole experience was extremely pleasant and swift.

We wasted 6 months with my first listing and broker then we found Alta Real Estate, or should we say Alta Real Estate found us. That’s the aggressive team they are, and who we wanted on my team. So we signed up. And, after they helped get it staged, they sold my $3,000,000 condo at my asking price, finding the buyer in just days. We are grateful that Alta Real Estate handled this for us.

Ali was an excellent broker who helped me purchase my first home. As someone who had never gone through this process before, Ali answered all of my questions, provided expert advice, and made the process as positive as it could be. She is knowledgable, helpful, compassionate and incredibly educated in her field. I would absolutely recommend Ali to anyone looking to purchase a home!

We first met Rick in 2001. Since then they he has helped me buy and sell several apartments for myself as well as for friends and has become a trusted source of information over the last two decades. He is always available 24/7 for answering questions for me and my friends. Alta has a lot of information at their fingertips.

Alta Real Estate, you had my back from the moment we hired you and that’s what we needed the most. Thanks, Alta Real Estate, we hope you have many more experiences like this and thrive! It certainly has shifted our life to a good place.

We sold our LIC apartment with Alta Real Estate. They know the market, used an excellent photographer to showcase our apartment, and have years of experience. They are nice too!

Interesting and professional!

Rick Kelly and his team did a great job selling my Manhattan co-op. They tried to show it as much as possible, and did an excellent job following up with all the agents who showed the property or direct buyers. Rick and his assistant Parker were great to work with. They tried to set up showings at times that worked best for me. They also provided me with helpful follow up after each showing. Whenever I had any questions and requested additional information, they got back to me right away with the information. Since this was an Estate sale, it was a difficult situation for me. Rick was very supportive and went out of his way to make the process as ...

Rick and his team set a high bar for client service and market knowledge. Rick knows all the ins and outs. I recommend Rick if you want to get an edge in the market and take stress out of the process.

Rick was extremely helpful throughout the whole process from searching to closing. I was impressed with his level of knowledge and the amount of data he had about the market. It was a no-brainer for me to work with him given his extensive knowledge and experience and I’m so thankful I did. Rick was always available at all hours. His responsiveness was incredible. The closing wasn’t straightforward where it hit a couple of bumps along the way but Rick always got ahead of any issues and made sure they were resolved right away. He did an incredible amount of information gathering about the process, as well as the comparable analysis. The delivery of t...

Very knowledgeable and will make sure you get the best deal possible. Strongly recommend!

I'm really grateful for Robert's great help when I was looking for an apartment. He helped me to secure really quickly the apartment that I wanted. He was extremely reactive and provided me with all the tips I needed. Robert is not only a great professional but also a great person and it was a real pleasure to find a new place with his assistance.

Robert was wonderful to work with. Super kind and attentive. As crazy as the NYC rental market can get, he made it easy and seamless for me and my fiancé. Robert was easily one of the best I've worked with. For anyone that gets the chance to work with him, you're very lucky!

Moved to NYC mid July and connected with Robert to show me an apartment in the UES. As soon as I saw the photos I knew it would be gone quickly, so I’m thankful Robert was able to get me in to see the apartment ASAP! He was kind enough to walk me through every step of the process and made sure no question of mine went unanswered, even checking in on me post move in to make sure I was all set. If/when I move again, Robert will be the first person I contact about any and all of my moving needs. Could not recommend enough!

Robert is an amazing professional that went above and beyond to procure the apartment that we wanted despite the strict requirements imposed by many NY apartments. Robert made sure the entire process; from the viewing to move in was smooth and coordinated helping us find the perfect apartment based on our needs!

Working with Robert while leasing my apt in nyc was not only easy but stress-free. Robert was responsive and had every detail I needed. He made this very stressful time a seamless one! He was very professional from the very start. I’d highly recommend working with Robert!! Thank you so much for my dream nyc apartment!!

Our experience working with Robert right from scheduling the appointment to the first showing and even after signing the lease has been nothing but excellent. He stayed on top of things at all times, and promptly responded to our phone, text and email messages. Not only that, he repeatedly communicated with us to ensure that our concerns were being addressed. We would recommend him to anyone who desires a pleasant and hassle free apartment hunting experience.

Robert is great! He helped me find the perfect apartment just for me. Quick, responsive, and professional. Of all the agents I've worked with, Robert is among the best. Thanks, Robert!

Robert was super helpful during the whole process. I wasn’t able to physically check any of the apartments given that I wasn’t in NYC, but Robert was more than happy to video call me several times and show me the different options! Definitely recommend workin with him!

Robert was immediately responsive, transparent and professional and his knowledge of and passion for the neighborhoods he represents was beyond impressive. He was a tremendous help to me in finding a new home for me moving to Manhattan from Philadelphia.

Robert is a realtor in NYC that actually services you.... Wow, I've only had ones that merely show me the prospective unit quickly then send me the application (taking advantage of the fact that most young professionals just need a place to live and it's going to fill no matter what). If you're young like me and have been in living in the city for a few years, you know what I'm talking about. Sometimes, I scratched my head and wondered, "what kind of 'work' are you doing here.. what are you getting paid for?" .. Well, Robert and his service is what I was always expecting, and above. Thank you so much for your help, Robert! I love my new place and en...

Robert was key to me landing my dream apartment in NYC. Very responsive, professional and just an overall good human. I'd be very inclined to work with Robert again in the future!

Our experience with other New York realtors was uncomfortable. Quite simply, our experience with Robert was not. He was prompt, courteous, and helpful at every turn.

Robert was so helpful, responsive, and professional. Moving is always stressful and he really made the process a breeze! I’d use him with my next move and I would recommend him any day!

Robert was very helpful and made the entire process very smooth. He really knew the apartments he showed me and made sure I had all of the information I needed to make a decision and move in. I am very happy with the place and the entire process. Could not have been easier. Robert is really responsive and checked in to make sure that I was comfortable and happy once I'd moved in.

I had an excellent experience working with Robert to get my current apartment. Robert was responsive to questions and went out of his way to make the entire process as easy as possible. I highly recommend obtaining his services to find your next home.
