Patrice Y. Footes

Working with Christiam Velez was truly a pleasure! As Realtors representing opposite sides of a transaction—she represented the seller and I represented the buyer—you always hope for professionalism, communication, and expertise. Unfortunately, that’s not always the experience in this industry, but Christiam exceeded expectations in every way. Her knowledge of the co-op process was excellent, and she navigated the transaction with confidence, professionalism, and ease. She was responsive, collaborative, and solution-oriented throughout the entire process, making what can sometimes be a challenging transaction feel seamless. Thank you, Christiam, for being such an amazing partner in getting this deal to the closing table. Most importantly, my buyer is thrilled and loves her new home! Looking forward to working together again soon.

Christiam made our first‑time homebuying experience truly exceptional. My partner was unsure about purchasing at first, but after meeting her, everything changed. She guided us through pre‑qualification, helped us understand which NYC neighborhoods fit our budget and lifestyle, and consistently showed that she was working with us and for us. She was always punctual, prepared, and professional—bringing printed property summaries and giving honest feedback about which homes to avoid due to future stress or costly repairs. She understood exactly what we needed, and with her guidance, we found our perfect home in under a month. Her network is incredible as well; she connected us with a great lender, attorney, and even contractors. From our first viewing to closing, the entire process took less than three months. Highly recommend Christiam. We look forward to working with her again in the future.
