John is an incredibly kind and knowledgeable agent. What made John stand out in our early interactions was his attentiveness to our emails and his willingness to talk about our particular buying situation without pressure or judgement. When we began working more closely with John, he was always available and listened to our needs. When we were finally ready to put an offer on the table for an apartment, he was helpful throughout the entire process. I always knew we were in good hands with John. Real estate can be a high pressure and sometimes disingenuous business, but John was the opposite of that. His kindness and warmth made him feel like an old friend who happened to be helping us find an apartment. This process would have been much more stressful without John''s guidance. We feel really lucky to have worked with John and would recommend him to anyone looking to buy, sell or rent an apartment in NYC.

We very much enjoyed working with John and would recommend him highly. John took time initially to understand what we needed and wanted in an apartment, and always had our financial interest and the best interest of our family in mind. He helped us see what were viable options for the long term, as we have two young kids. John was always upfront and honest with us about apartments we saw, as well as the real estate purchase process in New York City. John is also very patient, and never pushy. He effortlessly built a rapport with many seller''s agents we met, which helped us win the bid for our apartment. He''s a genuine and kind person, and we enjoyed working with him.

I''d like to give my hearty recommendation for John Jenis. John gave us wonderful advice throughout our entire process. He is knowledgable, honest and super friendly. He especially knows the market in upper Manhattan, When you''re ready to buy or sell, definitely contact John. He''ll be able to tell you everything you need to know to make excellent decisions.

John Jenis is a multi-faceted agent with a wealth of helpful knowledge. He has assisted me twice! Once with a complicated rental application and most importantly with my recent purchase! There were a few roadbumps with purchasing during COVID, but John was always able to get things moving along again, and keep me sane in the process! He has the resources needed to get you to closing. He is also a creative seller, keeping a close eye on market trends and creating new avenues to reach the interest of potential buyers. John is your advocate whatever your requirements.

I had a wonderful experience working with John! A few years ago, he helped me sublet my apartment in Harlem. He is warm and personable and took time to understand what I was looking for in tenants. John is a great communicator and was very up front about challenges and possibilities. He helped me find solutions and, of course, tenants who took great care of my place...and then made sure that we all were on the same page. I would definitely work with him again and am more than happy to recommend him to friends and family.

John was a fantastic agent. During a stressful cross country move in which we had to rent our coop and purchase another home all within a very tight deadline. John had my back all the way. He went above and beyond to ensure that the apartment was ready for new tenant and ensured me that everything would be fine during a stressful period in my life. I am not sure how things would have turned out without John’s assistance. I can’t wait to do business with him again.

John Jenis is the perfect combination of efficient and friendly. Going out of his way to accommodate schedules for viewing and shepherding paperwork like the expert that he is.. On moving day he was right there with a welcome greeting and a careful eye to make sure the property was in perfect condition. John knows the business and is thoroughly thoughtful!

John Jenis is an amazing person and agent. He is honest, knowledgeable, and patient. He knows the ins and outs of the NYC market and will take you step by step in buying a place in the competitive and stressful market of NYC.

John never pushed a property, and really listened to what we needed and could afford. We found an amazing property in Riverdale. He was very patient while we were looking for over a year. He works so hard finding listings, and is very organized when bringing over a folder to present them and go over them with us. He will always email you possible apartments.

He took us through step by step when we made the offer, and was amazing, acting as friend and sometimes therapist, during the demands of home buying in NY. He is extremely knowledgeable about pricing and gives you a very fair estimate of what something is worth. He is then wonderful at negotiating with the parties involved. He is HONEST!!!!

Before buying this property, there was another apartment which was double the price, and John, doing his research as he always does, suggested that it was not a good investment. It turned out not to be. I trust him implicitly, and he made what could have been a crazy experience, enjoyable! Also, he is wonderful about getting back to you any time you call. Work with him if you're wanting to buy an apartment in NY. Highly, highly recommended.

Thank you, John, for finding us our perfect apartment! After an exhausting search, we came down to two apartments with different price tags. John strongly advised us to take the lower priced option, despite our eagerness to go with the higher priced apartment. John was sure we were getting a better deal with the lower-priced option and boy was he right! Two years later, our apartment was re-appraised 60% higher than our purchase price! We could not be happier! John''s advice was spot on, and he knew a gem when he saw one and guided us to an undervalued gem.
