As a veteran agent with 26 years of market experience, Ed has seen the ups and downs of the Manhattan real estate market from both sides of the transaction aisle. Through this experience, Ed has been able to give his clients the benefits of a real estate transaction that only comes with a deep knowledge of the market place. Ed has always believed in providing his clients with the utmost in customer satisfaction and has signed up with Quality Service Certification to acheive that goal. Through QSC Ed gives his customers a written commitment of the services that he will provide and to be evaluated on each and every transaction he make through an independent third party consumer rating agency. This accountability is unheard of in the New York City real estate market and provides sellers and buyers with value for, and control over, their real estate experience.

His most recent position was with GMAC Real Estate, where as Director of Sales and Marketing Ed specialized in the selling of condominiums in the Manhattan and Brooklyn markets.

His experience has taken him to Philadelphia, where his sales and marketing experience launched a $35 million condominium, the first in over 20 years for the area. In Westchester County Ed's expertise was again utilized in a $16 million single family housing development and the re-launch of a 182 unit condominium in White Plains with a sellout of $14 million.
