Testimonials Directly From My Happy Clients

I couldn't have hoped for a better agent than Emma. She has a deep understanding of the market, was always available to answer questions and remained a calming presence throughout. Not only did she manage to sell my apartment for a price that exceeded my expectations, but she also helped my husband and me secure our new place before it was even on the market and during the pandemic, a feat we still can't...

Testimonials Directly From My Happy Clients

I found a true confidant and partner in Emma James. She was equally dedicated to finding the right place for myself and family, as she was to selling our previous place to buyers I would have hand picked. Emma was always available for a phone call, text or email, during the height of my search I probably spoke to her more than anyone else in my contacts! She kept it light when things were absurd and funn...

Testimonials Directly From My Happy Clients

This review is long overdue, Emma was truly a godsend and we were so fortunate to have her represent us in the sale of our Brooklyn townhouse. She was incredibly thorough, responsive, professional, and knowledgeable. Thanks to her hard work, we sold our place in record time above asking price. Emma is also just kind and funny and fun to be around. If you're looking for a broker in NYC, I could not recomm...

Emma James is such a fantastic broker! She is kind, patient, and knowledgeable. We are very appreciative of her help before, during, and even after the home-buying process. Emma is friendly and personable,and she will fight for you. We had quite a few hiccups, and our deal definitely would have fallen through without Emma. We are very appreciative of her tenacity, knowledge, and experience. She is defini...

Testimonials Directly From My Happy Clients

Emma is a phenomenal broker and we feel so lucky to have gotten to work with her on the purchase of our first home in Brooklyn. She brings the total package: not just helping with things typically in a broker's scope, but also going out of her way to help us by recommending excellent lawyers and lenders. Emma never pushed us to close or make rushed decisions. She always had our best interest as buyers at...

Testimonials Directly From My Happy Clients

Emma was an absolute pleasure to work with when my wife and I bought our home last year! She took the time to get to know us, our family and our goals, a welcome change from other agents we had worked with. She was then tenacious in finding us homes that fit our budget, getting our offer accepted and working us though the purchase. We couldn't be happier!

Testimonials Directly From My Happy Clients

I hired Emma and Corcoran for the sale of my Brooklyn condominium. I couldn't have been more pleased with her work. She got back to me immediately after emailing her. After signing on with her, she had a professional photographer shoot my property and she personally staged it. The first open house came quickly and multiple offers above asking price were received instantly. The sale was quite quick and Em...

Testimonials Directly From My Happy Clients

Emma absolutely changed the house hunting game for me! I was lost and overwhelmed before I contacted her. She is incredibly experienced and was intent on finding us the right home, not just any home to make a sale. I came to trust her immediately! She regularly checked in during the whole process and answered every silly first-time buyer questions with extensive information and detail. If you work with E...

Testimonials Directly From My Happy Clients

We started looking for a house in Brooklyn back in October and Emma has been involved in the process from day 1. We were so lucky to get to meet her in the first house we visited and, since then, she became our agent and guided us through the whole purchase process, which was life changing! To say that we couldn't have done this without her is definitely an understatement. This was the first time for us ...

Testimonials Directly From My Happy Clients

I originally started my search for a condo for my partner over a year ago. I explored several areas before deciding on Brooklyn and found Emma based on her stellar reviews. And they were 100% spot on! Emma genuinely listened to us on our preferences or wish lists and helped us narrow down our search leading to a decision I couldn't be happier about. She was a truly calming presence through the challengin...

Testimonials Directly From My Happy Clients

Emma listed my apartment for sale while I had already moved overseas, she handled a stager and gave me the best advice on how to best market it, highlighting the prime location while being completely honest about the obvious age of the kitchen-bathroom and decor of a prewar apartment my family and I lived in for 16 years. We got an offer at asking price at the very first open house. Emma knows how to get...
