“Roger helped me buy a new development unit in Manhattan and the experience was excellent. Because he had recently closed another purchase in the same Related building, he knew the property inside and out and got me first access to an off-market renovated apartment months ahead of the market. He brought in an attorney who already knew the building, got me closing credits on my behalf, and was extremely thorough on the punch list walkthrough. He answered every question I had, and I never felt like I was figuring anything out on my own. If you're buying new development in NYC, he's the person to call.”
“We had an absolutely fantastic experience working with our agent. As newcomers to both the area and the notoriously complicated mechanics of buying a home in New York City, we were incredibly grateful to have him in our corner. He guided us through every step of the complex NYC process with patience and unmatched expertise. A few things truly set him apart: Ultimate Professionalism: He was never pushy or annoying, always giving us the space to make our own decisions while providing excellent data and guidance. Impeccable Reliability: He is incredibly conscientious. When he had a planned vacation during our search, he seamlessly coordinated coverage so we never felt left in the lurch or missed a beat. Meticulous Detail: During the home inspections and final walk-throughs, his thoroughness was unmatched. He went through the punchlist with a fine-tooth comb, ensuring that every single item we requested was completed to standard. Thanks to his dedication, we successfully purchased our home on the Upper East Side. If you are looking for an agent who is thorough, respectful, highly skilled, and deeply protective of his clients' interests, look no further. We cannot recommend him highly enough!”
“Roger is wonderful to work with and made the entire process seamless. He was super responsive and showed us fab options. Thanks Roger 🙏”
“Roger Dunkelbarger provided me with exceptional service on the sale of my Upper West Side/South Harlem condo. I was under a stringent time constraint being in contract for a new home build out of state. Upon meeting him, I found him to be dynamic and effective. I was confident that his market savvy and momentum would make things happen quickly and correctly. Throughout the sale Roger demonstrated great care, thoroughness, and vigilance. All details were executed precisely and seamlessly. He is the consummate professional. The results he generated speak for themselves. There were four sales offers, all at asking price or above. Equally important was that he was able to close the sale on time and without a hitch. It is a pleasure to endorse Roger. I am quite confident that he will produce your desired results.”
“Working with Roger was an exceptional experience from start to finish. They quickly understood my criteria and only presented properties that truly matched, efficiently focusing the search in Brooklyn. Their deep local knowledge gave me confidence at every step. Throughout the process, communication was consistently excellent, Roger was highly responsive, kept me informed, and answered questions promptly. What really stood out was his experience, negotiation, backed by thorough building/condo expertise. They seamlessly coordinated attorneys, made invaluable referrals, and assisted until closing.”
“Our experience with Roger was fantastic. This was our first ever property purchase, so we had a lot to learn, particularly in the NY market which has its own quirks. We had an initial courtesy call with Roger and his experience and knowledge of the market / demand trends / market comps / regulation really put us at ease and gave us confidence that he was the right person to work with to find our home. As it happens, we found an ideal property for us on our first viewing day with Roger, literally the second place we looked at. We were interested in making a bid and Roger advised us what he thought would be best and some concessions to negotiate with the seller; our offer was accepted! As we moved forward with the contract and into closing, Roger’s attention to detail and diligence built up through his years of experience really helped us to manage things with the apartment as well as just the process with lenders / lawyers and the condo board application . Everything he did made our lives so much easier Nd made the process much more smooth than we anticipated. We can not recommend Roger more highly, he is an asset to his team. In addition to his Real Estate experience, he is just a very nice person to be around. He’s very personable, funny, relatable and very patient which is key for nervous buyers like us!”
“Roger is simply the best, and I’d recommend him without hesitation to anyone navigating New York City real estate. This was my first property purchase, and I had very little knowledge of the NYC market. When I started this process, I wasn’t even sure I was ready to buy. Roger never once pushed me and just took the time to educate me on what was out there and all the considerations of buying a home. At one point, I had an emotional attachment to a different property that wasn’t going to work out. Roger gently helped me see the value in what would become my home. I couldn’t be more grateful for that. His knowledge of the market is exceptional. He gave me strategic guidance on which properties would appreciate over time and which would come with headaches post-close. He walked me through all the nuances of New York real estate and the buying process. I never once felt overwhelmed by the very overwhelming nuances of the New York process. Roger took me to something like eleven properties in a single day with zero issues on timing or logistics, and somehow made it feel completely comfortable rather than overwhelming. When I wanted to revisit places multiple times, he made that work around my schedule without complaint. Diagnosing the market as a first-time buyer is a lot to take on, and Roger’s organization and client service made it genuinely manageable When it came to negotiating, Roger was a pro. He got us to the right price point with minimal concessions. After entering into contract, he connected me with inspectors, attorneys, movers, and even post-close cleaners. Roger also showed up throughout the entire journey. Despite a very tight timeline and multiple complications, Roger was always there with information, with follow-through, and even just emotional support when complicated arose. When other parties were slow to respond, he stayed relentless, following up through every angle until we got to the finish line as fast as possible. Roger is also just a pleasure to work with and made it fun. I’m very grateful to have gone through this process with him.”
“My partner and I recently had the absolute pleasure of working with Roger Dunkelbarger to find and close on our new condo in Williamsburg. The entire search and buying process can be daunting, but Roger made it incredibly seamless and stress-free. From the very beginning, Roger took the time to truly understand our needs and exactly what we were looking for. He quickly put together a comprehensive set of listings for us to review and impressively lined up multiple showings within the span of just a few days. What we appreciated most was his unbiased advice and the fact that he clearly had our best interests at heart at all times. As we toured different properties, Roger always made sure to highlight the pros and cons of each option specifically in the context of what we were looking for. Beyond his deep knowledge of the area and the different condo buildings, his sharp negotiation skills ended up saving us a considerable amount of money, leaving us completely pleased with our purchase. If you are looking for a highly dedicated, responsive, and genuinely supportive real estate agent in New York, we cannot recommend Roger and his team enough. Thank you, Roger, for helping us find our new home!”
“Working with Roger to purchase our condo in North Brooklyn was an excellent experience. As inexperienced buyers, we had a lot of questions, and Roger always provided thorough, in-depth explanations to make sure we had the full picture. His responsiveness was incredible; texts were usually answered within 15 minutes. After each showing, he took the time to debrief with us, gathering our feedback to refine and better target his continued search. He never pressured us and always let us move at our own pace. When it came to negotiations, Roger was highly strategic. He helped us structure a counter-offer with an aggressive expiration time to prevent the seller from shopping our offer around, keeping the leverage in our favor. He was also incredibly hands-on with our condo board application. He meticulously reviewed our materials to help us correct mistakes and even dropped off the physical package in person to ensure it was submitted properly. We highly recommend him”
