"Filippa is a consummate real-estate professional with great instincts, a wonderful sense of style, and a profound understanding of people and space. The old saying that only three things matter in real estate, "location - location - location," might be transposed to characterize what really matters in a real-estate broker; “connections, connections, connections,” and Filippa has many!"
"I was new to living in NYC, so I really didn't have a thorough and complete feel for the market like someone who lived here for many years would. This meant that I had to rely on Filippa's expertise, and I can definitely say that my trust was rewarded. She had a great knowledge of what was available in my price range, and we ended up finding a fantastic deal. Also, going through the co-op application process is very complicated, and Filippa guided me right through it. In the end, I made a successful purchase of a co-op in a great locat...

In the end, I made a successful purchase of a co-op in a great location, and we negotiated a very worthwhile deal. Furthermore, she has very dependable contacts in real estate law, mortgage consultants, and contractors for any other transaction-related needs you have during and after the process."
"After a few weeks of activity, I put my real-estate hunt on pause for a two-week trip to London; my primary broker was leaving for business in business in Hong Kong just as I returned, so she recommended I work with Filippa in her absence. It turned out to be a critical juncture in my housing search, as I reinstated my interest in a property I had previously bid, but lost out on. Throughout the entire process, Filippa was unfailingly calm, coolheaded, knowledgeable, and readily accessible; she went above and beyond for me, even waiting...

It turned out to be a critical juncture in my housing search, as I reinstated my interest in a property I had previously bid, but lost out on. Throughout the entire process, Filippa was unfailingly calm, coolheaded, knowledgeable, and readily accessible; she went above and beyond for me, even waiting an hour for the seller's broker to admit her to the apartment after they had twice rescheduled our visit and provided extremely valuable advice as we renewed our negotiations. When my primary broker returned to the US, Filippa remained very involved with the deal and helped ensure a successful transaction. I would recommend her unreservedly to anyone in search of a savvy, sensible, highly intelligent guide to the housing market."
