I just bought my first house with Joe's help and expertise. He has extensive knowledge of the NYC housing market, especially in Jamaica Estates, Queens. The entire process was made smooth and easy with Joe's communication and professionalism. I'm very happy with how this transaction was carried out. Thank you!

Serene and her associates have been a pleasure to work with and I’ve had a very positive experience during a preliminary search. Serene is particularly helpful and knowledgeable about the market, she understands the right questions to ask when seeking leverage for negotiations on behalf of the buyer. She’s fair and transparent, and exudes a sense of honesty/trust because her actions were not ever to push for a sale as fast as possible. I value her opinion because she seems aligned that the goal is in reaching the right mutual fit for a major life decision. Her services would be excellent for someone who is new in the housing market as she’s quite willing to teach and inform—this makes for a relationship-based transaction rather than pure expediency. I would continue to use her services in the future.

I could not recommend Serene and her team any higher. Her market knowledge, responsiveness, communication made this a very successful and joyous endeavor. She was there for me anytime I needed her and made it a seamless, painless process. I will always be so grateful for Serene and her team and will gladly work with them again for my next real estate investment! It was such a great experience.

Serene and her team at Serene Powers were instrumental in helping us find our dream apartment in Long Island City. Our home search process was a lengthy one due to the lack of availability in our desired area but Serene was with us at every step along the way. She was extremely plugged into the market and always sent us new listings the moment they were made publicly available on listing websites. Often times she also let us in on opportunities before they even hit the market. When we finally set our sight on our apartment of choice, Serene really hustled for us to get the deal across the line and was heavily involved in all of the deal negotiations. She did a fantastic job coordinating among different parties to help us secure the best final outcome. Not only did Serene help us close on our new home, she also helped us find new tenants for our existing place seamlessly. It only took one weekend showing for us to sign the lease agreement with the new tenants. From then on, Serene and her team took care of all the administrative aspects of the process from preparing board applications to securing certified checks for us. She helped us follow up and ensured we could meet our very tight timeline to get our mortgage approved and closing done. I could not be more satisfied with the services rendered by Serene Powers and would wholeheartedly recommend her and her brokerage to anyone looking to start their apartment hunt. Thank you Serene!

As first-time homebuyers, we couldn’t have asked for a better real estate agent than Jannie. She was incredibly nice, always responsive, and consistently had our best interests in mind throughout the entire process. Jannie made sure we understood each step, clearly explaining everything in a way that put us at ease. When we faced challenges with other parties involved, she went above and beyond to help solve those issues, working tirelessly to get us to closing as quickly as possible. We are so grateful for her support and expertise!

Serene and Dave did an amazing job at assisting us with the purchase of our condo, and I highly recommend them as real estate agents/brokers. They are excellent communicators with great attention to detail, and were always punctual and responsive. They are also incredibly knowledgeable about the home purchase process, and their advice was invaluable to us as first-time buyers in NYC. Serene and Dave are friendly, patient, trustworthy, and honest, and an absolute pleasure to work with!

Working with Serene Powers was an exceptional experience, and her expertise was key to helping us secure our dream condo in LIC. As the head of the agency, Serene demonstrated deep market knowledge, professionalism, and a strong commitment to her clients at every stage.

She guided us through critical steps like negotiation and price setting, ensuring we felt informed and confident. Serene attended multiple showings and walkthroughs, offering invaluable insights and paying close attention to every detail. During the final walkthrough, her meticulous approach ensured everything was in order.

Despite significant challenges with our lender caused by miscommunication and poor process management, Serene went above and beyond to keep the closing process on track. She worked tirelessly to coordinate between all parties, advocating on our behalf and resolving issues promptly. Her leadership and problem-solving skills made all the difference.

Serene’s professionalism and client-first approach were unmatched. We are incredibly grateful for her support and highly recommend her to anyone seeking a skilled and dedicated real estate professional. You’ll be in excellent hands with Serene and her team.

We were looking for a 3 bedroom apartment in Long Island City and was lucky to find Serene and Rachel who was not only able to help us find a place we love but also rented our current apartment out after just 1 day of showing. We could not have asked for a more trusted, dedicated and resourceful team in our search. We have worked with other realtors before and Serene team by far is the best, we hope to be working with her team on many more opportunities in the future!
