Ann

In 2007, I was looking to purchase an investment property in New York City. I was under a very tight timeframe in which to locate a property and close a transaction. I had moved from New York five years earlier and did not have any contacts in the real estate industry. I asked a trusted friend for a real estate agent recommendation and that is when I met Harry DiOrio. The introduction was made over the phone. I told Harry what I was looking for and my time constraints. I flew into New York a few days later. Harry had set up a number of properties for me to see. It was clear from the start that Harry listened carefully. He put together an action-packed day that appropriately took into consideration my parameters. No time was wasted. By the next morning, I had made a decision and put an offer on the first condo that Harry showed me the previous day. Like many real estate transaction, there were plenty of twists and turns before and after the closing. Harry was there every step of the way, providing me with sound advice. My relationship with Harry did not end there. As this was an investment property, I need to find a tenant. I turned to Harry and he did a great job of showing the condo and screening prospects. My first tenant was a dream but after five years she moved on. I once again turned to Harry to rent the condo and once again he delivered an equally excellent tenant. Real estate transactions are complex and often fraught with emotion. It is easy to be misguided by an agent who is looking for a fast deal. Harry's knowledge of the New York real estate market is impressive, his responsiveness to all of my requests has been timely, and his professionalism is outstanding. All of this leads to the single most important element in any long term business relationship and that is trust. Harry has earned my trust through his hard work and personal integrity. I am extremely lucky to have found him.

My wife and I were first time buyers in New York City and did not know much about the market, the neighborhoods or the regulatory aspect of purchasing a condo or co-op in the city. Fortunately for us, a friend recommended Harry DiOrio and he made what seemed at times an impossible mission, a challenge that could be managed and accomplished. Harry was superb in guiding us to properties in the right neighborhoods, the right buildings, and the right associations. He helped us understand values, how to deal with multiple complexities, and how to find a property that fit our needs, our budget and our expectations. When we needed help with the contract, he recommended an experienced closing attorney to represent us. When we needed help negotiating with a contractor to refurbish our apartment, he recommended an attorney who specialized in the building trades. His contacts not only seem endless, but he knows specialists for specific needs. Without his handholding and guidance, we would not have been able to purchase, redesign and remodel our apartment in the manner, schedule and quality we now enjoy. Even better is Harry’s post-sale presence. He maintains regular contact via e-mail and updates us automatically on resale activity in our building and neighborhood. He is our go-to guy for anything we need in New York, and we have not been disappointed yet in his ability to respond. We highly recommend Harry, he is knowledgeable, responsive and candid.

Selling an apartment in NYC is complex and not something you do every day. It becomes even more difficult in a down market. Qualifying potential buyers is delicate maneuver and dealing with co-op boards can be appalling. I had a lot of apprehension about finding a Realtor® that I could trust and knew it would be the paramount decision for my success. I began my search and my expectations were high. I wanted someone that would address my pricing concerns and represent my home with the attention I felt it deserved. On the very next weekend I attended one open house after another and observed how each Realtor® represented their client's apartment. I paid special attention to their interaction with potential buyers and how well they responded to questions. For the most part I was not impressed until I met Harry DiOrio. He was representing a great small space just around the corner from my apartment. I liked his presentation and demeanor. I scheduled another viewing of this apartment a day or two later with Harry and was convinced after this second meeting he would be the best Realtor® to sell my home. After talking with him at length, I believed he would make every effort to sell my place and attain the best realistic price for the current market. Harry accomplished a very successful sale that exceeded my expectations. Throughout the process he gave me important feedback from potential buyers and included me in his marketing decisions. At the closing of my apartment we were both pleased and have remained friends. I knew from the beginning I had chosen the right professional to sell my home.

Alice & Bruce

We are very happy to write a testimonial for Harry DiOrio. Through Harry, we sold our apartment at Carnegie House, as the housing market was bursting in 2008. In fact, Harry is such a professional that we first met him as he represented the seller of the apartment we purchased at the Carnegie House back in 1999. He fairly navigated us through the co-op process even though he worked for the seller. We then called upon Harry to help us find a new apartment in 2010, We told him our only priority was to find a quiet place. He found us the perfect apartment on Sutton Place. We could not be happier. I have also recommended Harry to friends who needed help in selling their place. I would not hesitate to highly recommend Harry. He is, quite simply, the best.

Glenn & Alissa

There was a long period when we simply avoided the real estate market in New York City because we did not feel we could trust the motivations of brokers. It seemed like a pool of sharks that we just did not want to swim in, so we rented for a long time. Working with Harry DiOrio changed that. Not only was it clear from the beginning that Harry was ‘our broker’ working on our behalf, but his absolute command of market information and no-nonsense approach to deal-making gave us absolute confidence when we were finally making the most important investment of our life. Going forward, we would not think of making a move in real estate without consulting Harry and heartily and confidently recommend him.

Maria

I wouldn't even know how to begin when it comes to praising Harry. I'll start by saying that he made my dreams come through by helping me find that perfect apartment that I was hoping for. Harry got to know me in order to understand what was it that I wanted, and he didn't rest until we were able to find my home. He made that whole process easy and took care of me every step of the way: from going through listings, to attending open-houses, negotiating, interviewing with a Board... to all the paper work and tiresome bureaucracy that goes along with closing and getting a mortgage in this town. It's been 5 years and I still think of him regularly and thank him for helping me find and secure my beautiful apartment.

Lilian

I knew that I wanted to buy in Manhattan, but I was unfamiliar with the idiosyncrasies of this challenging housing market. Fortunately, Harry DiOrio was my broker. From the beginning, Harry put me at ease with his candor and great sense of humor. He listened well, clearly understood my needs as a potential buyer, and patiently answered my questions during each step of the process. Harry was always prompt and scheduled viewings very efficiently. With his guidance, I quickly found an apartment that surpassed my expectations. I would highly recommend Harry DiOrio to anyone looking for a home in Manhattan.

Chris & Tanya

Thanks for the great work you did selling our Manhattan apartment. You brought in well-qualified buyers and actively kept us up-to-date on what was going on in the market. When we received a good offer, you stayed on the case and worked hard to bring the transaction to fruition. Your marketing skills and professionalism are excellent. We appreciated your great help on the buy side and felt you really understood the market we were targeting. We will not hesitate to recommend you to others who are looking to sell or buy in Manhattan.

John

A longtime resident of Beverly Hills, I was determined, upon my retirement, to find a condo in New York's Theatre District. It was my extreme good fortune to have Harry DiOrio as my buying agent. Highly knowledgeable, energetic, ever anxious to go that all important extra mile for me, he exuded confidence and possessed the unusual trait of having a calming effect on one unfamiliar with the frenetic rigors of home hunting in the world's greatest city. The result was a condo far beyond my expectations. I was more than satisfied.

Frank

Just a word of thanks for the wonderful job that you did in representing me and my property. I realize that Spring 2009 was a difficult time to sell but you were able to get a good price for my co-op in Carnegie House and a great price on the condo I moved into at the Metropolitan Tower. Appreciate all your efforts as well as those who assisted you with these transactions. I am a very satisfied customer. I will seek you out again in a moment’s notice if need arises in the future. Thanks again.

I have known Harry DiOrio since 2002. I have bought and sold 5 properties with Harry as my exclusive broker in those 12 years. We have become good friends as well during this time. Harry is an amazing broker-he is honest and resourceful, Harry knows how to find the deal and close the deal. He is always is incredibly patient and cool. His attention to detail is amazing- no matter how complex any board package is, etc. I have referred him to friends who have been delighted with his services.
