I recently sold my apartment with the help of Michael Shapot and The Shapot Team, and I cannot thank them enough for their expertise and perseverance. We started the process more than 5 years ago. There were starts and stops, a flood in the apartment requiring some major repairs, uncertainty about whether or not to sell, and differences of opinion amongst my family members regarding staging, pricing and negotiating strategies. Through it all, the Team advised us about market conditions and how we were being impacted, as well as our options. They patiently explained what we might expect at every possible upcoming fork in the road. Selling a home is never an easy feat. We faced a challenging market, and my apartment and my building posed unusual and extraordinary difficulties.

I recently sold my apartment with the help of Michael Shapot and The Shapot Team, and I cannot thank them enough for their expertise and perseverance. We started the process more than 5 years ago. There were starts and stops, a flood in the apartment requiring some major repairs, uncertainty about whether or not to sell, and differences of opinion amongst my family members regarding staging, pricing and negotiating strategies. Through it all, the Team advised us about market conditions and how we were being impacted, as well as our options. They patiently explained what we might expect at every possible upcoming fork in the road. Selling a home is never an easy feat. We faced a challenging market, and my apartment and my building posed unusual and extraordinary difficulties. The Team worked tirelessly to find creative ways to market the property, attract potential buyers and ensure the buyer would secure financing and the coop Board's approval. They introduced me to other wonderful professionals (lawyers, painters, flooring professionals, stagers, organizers, photographers, cleaners, movers, etc). They communicated often and effectively throughout the process to ensure that my family was always in the know. Thanks to their dedication, commitment, strategizing, planning and implementing, my apartment sold within a reasonable timeframe with minimal stress. I could not have asked for a better outcome. If you're looking for a real estate expert who truly cares about his clients and has the expertise and determination to get a challenging job done, look no further. I am grateful for everything the Shapot Team did for me and my family, and would not hesitate to work with them again in the future.
I have now worked on a few deals with Michael and his team and cannot be happier to have recommended him to my clients. Michael has an up to the minute pulse on the market which is vital during these ever changing times. He and his team are also able to implement strategies to maximize the value of their listings and do so in a way to sell quickly to ensure that the listing does not become “stale”. I hope to be able to continue to work with Michael on deals in the future as he is not only an awesome broker he is a mensch!
Michael Shapot and his Team were instrumental in getting our uncle's coop quickly sold for top dollar during the COVID-19 pandemic. They worked with us to have the apartment staged, virtually staged and market readied. Timing was critical for our family, and when one buyer backed out of a deal, they promptly identified a second, highly qualified and coop-board worthy buyer at the full asking price. We can wholeheartedly recommend the Shapot Team for your residential real estate needs, even in the most challenging times and in the most demanding buildings.
Thank you sincerely to the amazing team who facilitated purchase @ 108 Leonard. Each one of you made my dream come true of owning at the luxurious and beautiful TriBeCa clock tower — I am incredibly grateful for your efforts. I am truly impressed at the level of professionalism and hard work that each of you demonstrated on this closing and appreciate everything you offered. To arrive home to the opulent and gorgeous space is humbling. Many blessings to each of you!
