Reviews

Milton did a great job at helping me find my coop apartment that was the perfect fit for me. He explored the possibilities with the tours, gave me the information needed to know if I qualified for a mortgage and gave his experience with negotiating a price that I was comfortable with. He is personable, experienced and professional. I felt like I was being led in the right direction and I was. I would recommend his real estate services whole heartedly. Great experience with Milton!

I was trying to rent out my newly renovated condo in NYC's competitive rental market, and Milton Coste handled everything from start to finish. Milton knows the area inside out and was communicative, knowledgeable, and proactive throughout the entire process. Thanks to his expertise, he found a great tenant within just one week at a strong rental price. I highly recommend Milton to anyone looking for a reliable, professional, and results-driven real estate broker.
