Moving out of state is a major life transition, and selling your New York City home can add an extra layer of complexity to the process. From maximizing the outcome of your real estate sale to coordinating logistics across state lines, it's a challenge that requires expert guidance and support. That's where The Zweben Team comes in! We’re a top NYC real estate team within Douglas Elliman, known for exceeding client expectations through personalized, concierge-style service.

For one Upper West Side homeowner, the decision to move out of state was driven by a desire for a fresh start and a new chapter in life. However, selling their beloved NYC home presented a unique set of challenges. Not only did they need to prepare their property for the market and navigate the intricate selling process, but they also had to coordinate the logistics of a long-distance move.
Common hurdles faced by homeowners in similar situations include managing the sale remotely, ensuring their home is properly marketed and showcased to potential buyers, and navigating the legal and financial complexities of a cross-state transaction. With so many moving parts, it's easy for stress and uncertainty to mount. You need an NYC real estate agent whom you trust to take the reins and handle the sale—and all the small but crucial details!—on your behalf.

To showcase the Upper West Side home to its fullest potential, we created a captivating neighborhood video, highlighting the property's unique features and the vibrant surrounding community.

This case study shares the story of how the Zweben Team helped clients overcome a challenging situation to successfully buy a condo on the Upper West Side. Facing the competitive New York real estate market, our team's expertise and personalized approach turned a potentially stressful experience into a triumphant home buying journey. Let’s dive in!
On the hunt to buy a condo on the Upper West Side, our clients had an unexpected twist. They were in contract on a condo, close to buying their dream home, when suddenly the deal fell through. The condo board exercised their right of first refusal, and suddenly our buyers had no home to move to. This setback started the clock: it was a race against time to find a new place in one of New York's most sought-after areas. (Challenge accepted!)
Reacting quickly, our New York homebuyer specialists at the Zweben Team swung into action. We know the Upper West Side inside out, and we used this knowledge to handpick 50 potential homes. Our clients were looking for something special, and we were determined to help them find it.
In just two days, we toured the top ten properties together. It was a busy couple of days, but it’s what we do – we’re here to make things happen for our clients.
The right place was among those ten homes, but it wasn’t just our clients who thought so. Several offers were already in, and the competition was fierce. This is where our years of experience and local connections came into play. Collaboratively, we worked on a game plan. Our clients made a strong offer, and thanks to our long-standing relationships in the market, we were able to make their offer stand out.
We’ll spare you the suspense: Our clients’ offer was accepted, and they closed the deal in December 2023! We love to create a win-win scenario. The sellers had a competitive listing, and our buyer clients are starting their new chapter in a home they love. The journey wasn’t always easy, but it’s a great example of what we do best: overcoming obstacles to make our clients' housing goals a reality.
If you’re looking to buy a condo or other property on the Upper West Side, we’re here to help. The Zweben Team combines a deep understanding of the market with a commitment to our clients. Offering honest feedback and expert advice, we’ll make sure you find the right home for your needs.
When it comes to selling your home in the complex real estate market of New York City, the stakes are high and the competition is fierce. Choosing the right New York listing agent can make all the difference. Welcome to a real-life case study where The Zweben Team (that’s us!) guided an NYC home seller to not just any sale, but a quick and compelling one.
So, why is this case study worth your time? Because it's a practical example of how strategic choices can significantly increase your home sale price in NYC. We'll walk you through the journey of a New York home seller who had a clear goal: to sell their property quickly and at a compelling price. And guess what? We made it happen.
Whether you're a first-time home seller or a seasoned pro, this case study offers insights that can help you make informed decisions for your own property sale. So, let's dive in!
Meet our client, a New York home seller with a straightforward yet challenging goal: to sell their property quickly and at a compelling price. (Would you be surprised to hear that’s what most NYC home sellers want?) Yet in a market as dynamic as New York City real estate, this can be easier said than done. Not every NYC listing agent has the skills you need to efficiently and effectively market and negotiate your home sale.
In this case, our client was aware of the hurdles—ranging from market volatility to other listings competing for buyers' attention and $$$.
So, what drove this need for speed and a compelling sale price? For our client, it was a combination of personal and financial factors. Often our clients are relocating for a job, or they want to capitalize on favorable market conditions. Whatever the reason, they knew that achieving this goal would require more than just putting a "For Sale" sign in the yard.
The seller came to us with these challenges and aspirations, looking for a top New York listing agent who could truly deliver. And that's where we stepped in.
Our seller’s property on the Upper East Side was a great value that checked off a lot of the boxes for a desirable NYC condo. Comfortable, convenient yet secluded. At 1760 Second Ave #9E, the west-facing 1-bedroom condo was more than just a place to live; it was a home-base and their oasis in the city, full of our client’s memories.
From its spacious layout to the pass-through galley kitchen equipped with stainless steel appliances, every inch of this home was designed with the modern New Yorker in mind. But it wasn't just the condo that was impressive. The Chartwell House, where this gem is located, is a pet-friendly, full-service condominium. With amenities like a 24-hour doorman, a recently upgraded fitness center, and a roof deck offering panoramic views, it's easy to see why this building is a sought-after residence.
So, with this property in mind, how could we ensure it met our client's goals of a quick sale at a compelling price? Let's delve into our strategy.
In NYC, where thousands of homes are on the market at any given time, standing out is crucial. That's where our expertise comes into play. Our strategic marketing plan was tailored to highlight the unique features of the seller’s property.
Social media was a great tool in this endeavor. We leveraged platforms like Instagram and Facebook to reach a wider audience, utilizing high-quality photos and engaging posts to capture attention. But we didn't stop there. We also sent out mass mailings to targeted buildings in the area, ensuring that potential buyers who were already interested in the neighborhood received firsthand information about this exceptional listing.
Of course, pricing is a critical factor in any property sale. We're known for our smart, strategic pricing and accurate market insight leading to successful sales, which allowed us to set a price that was both compelling for buyers and satisfying for our seller.
After employing a multi-faceted strategy tailored to the unique features of 1760 Second Ave #9E, the outcome was nothing short of spectacular.
The proof is in the pudding, as they say. Our client's property didn't just attract attention; it commanded it. Within a short period, we were able to secure a sale that not only met but also exceeded our client's expectations. The final sale price? A compelling figure that perfectly aligned with the client's goals.
So there you have it—a real-life example of how the right strategy, executed by an expert New York listing agent whom you trust, can lead to a quick and compelling sale. From understanding our client's goals to showcasing an exceptional property and employing a multi-faceted marketing strategy, we've demonstrated that success in the New York real estate market is more than achievable; it's within your grasp.

Today, we're pulling back the curtain on a real success story. We had the pleasure of working with a New York home seller to find a new owner for a stunning apartment at 645 W End Ave #5B. This wasn't just any sale; it was a life-changing moment for the seller. Ultimately the apartment, complete with 3 bedrooms and 3 baths, sold for $2,195,000 to a very happy buyer. But the real win? The seller got to turn the page and start a brand-new chapter in their life.
So, come along as we share the ins and outs of this journey. We'll talk about the smart choices and the personal touches that made this sale a resounding success.
Maybe you feel ready for a change? So was our client. They had a beautiful apartment at 645 W End Ave, right in the heart of New York City. Picture this: 3 bedrooms, 2 full baths, and a partial bath for good measure. But as lovely as it was, the home had become more of a stepping stone than a final destination. Our client was eyeing a lifestyle change, something many of us ponder but aren't quite sure how to make happen.
The property itself was a gem, but it wasn't just about selling a piece of real estate; it was about helping our client turn the page. They had specific goals, needs, and constraints, just like anyone making a big life decision. And that's where we came in—not as miracle workers, but as trusted advisors, ready to guide them through the maze that is the New York real estate market.
Now, let's talk strategy. The New York real estate market is no joke, and getting the pricing right is crucial. But don't worry, it's not about throwing a dart at a board and hoping for the best. We worked closely with our client to find that pricing sweet spot—competitive enough to attract buyers but also reflective of the home's true value.
And let's not forget about getting the word out. For this West End Avenue gem, we went all-in with video marketing. Imagine a virtual walkthrough that captures the essence of the home, making potential buyers feel like they're already living there. Add to that a sprinkle of social media magic to reach an even wider audience, and you've got yourself a recipe for success.
But here's the thing: while numbers and tech are important, they're part of a larger picture. Our focus remained on understanding our client's vision for their next chapter and ensuring every step we took was in harmony with that goal.
Fast forward to the day the deal was sealed. The apartment at 645 W End Ave found its new owner, and our client couldn't be happier. Why? Because the process was not only successful but also genuinely enjoyable. In their own words, "The Zweben's made the process fun!"
You might wonder how a real estate transaction could be described as 'fun.' Well, it comes down to the relationship we built with our client. We were there every step of the way, offering guidance, answering questions, and even sharing a few laughs. It's this personal touch that turned a potentially stressful experience into a memorable journey.
The cherry on top? The sale surpassed our client's expectations, both in terms of the final price and the smoothness of the process. It was a win-win situation, proving that with the right guidance, selling your New York City home can be both profitable and enjoyable.
So there you have it—a real-life journey from dreaming about a lifestyle change to making it a reality. Our client at 645 W End Ave not only sold their home but also embarked on a new chapter in their life, all while enjoying the process.

We're The Zweben Team, your trusted advisors in navigating New York's complex property landscape. Our top NYC buyer agents are here to help you understand your options and make well-informed decisions.
Just recently, we helped a New York home buyer client to find an apartment that checked all their boxes—location, building quality, and budget. Want to know how we did it? Stick around, and we'll share the insights that could help you find your own perfect place in NYC.
So, you're a home buyer ready to dive into the New York City real estate market. But where do you even begin? Our recent client had the same questions and three key criteria that couldn't be compromised: location, price, and building quality. Sound like you? Let's dig a little deeper.
Our client was set on buying a home in a particular neighborhood that offered the best of both worlds—proximity to their work/commute and access to lifestyle amenities like parks, dining, and entertainment.
New York City isn't known for being budget-friendly. Our client had a set budget and was dead-set on finding a home that offered real value without sacrificing their essentials.
Nobody wants to settle for a subpar building. Our client was in search of a well-maintained building with amenities that would make their life easier and more enjoyable. They also wanted to avoid having to make repairs and renovations to get their new home in appropriate shape before moving in, so a property needed to be in great condition.
Is it any surprise that these guiding factors are common among many New York home buyers? As top New York Realtors for over 20 years, we're here to help you tackle these challenges head-on.
You've got your criteria set, but how do you turn that wish list into a new set of keys? At The Zweben Team, we believe in empowering you with realistic options so you can make well-informed decisions and feel confident in your choices when all is said and done. Here's how we do it:
The NYC real estate market moves fast, particularly for the most desirable buildings and locations. We stay ahead of the game by constantly monitoring new listings for you. This ensures you're among the first to know about homes that meet your criteria.
Whether it’s your first or fiftieth time buying a home in NYC, it’s not something to rush into. One apartment might seem perfect (or miserable) until you see what else is out there. We arrange and accompany you to multiple showings, in order to give you a comprehensive understanding of what your budget can actually get you in your desired location.
It's easy to get swept up in the excitement of house hunting. We help you keep your feet on the ground by discussing what your budget and chosen location mean for your day-to-day life. Will you have a longer commute? What amenities are you gaining or losing? We help you weigh these factors so there are no surprises later.
If you watch real estate TV shows, you might think that a New York buyer’s agent mostly just tags along while you tour properties. That’s not the case when you work with The Zweben Team: we're not just here to show you homes; we're here to patiently guide you through the entire decision-making process. Your happiness is our end goal, period. We're committed to helping you find a home that fits your life, not just your wishlist.
So, what's the endgame? For our recent client, it was a resounding success. They found their dream apartment that ticked all the boxes—ideal location, mint condition, and within budget. But let's get into the details:
Our New York home buyer client ended up in a neighborhood that offered everything they were looking for—convenience, lifestyle, and a sense of community. The building itself was well-run and well maintained, a big plus for our client.
The apartment was move-in ready, sparing our client the hassle of repairs or waiting on contractors. They could immediately start enjoying their new home.
With close to $1 billion in NYC real estate sales under our belts, we know that buying a home, especially here in New York, can be overwhelming. Our role is to make the process as smooth as possible. We helped our client to not just find a new home but find peace of mind.
The bottom line? We're not satisfied until you are. Our team is committed to helping you find a home that meets your needs, fits your budget, and enriches your life.
