Buying new development in NYC — whether at Central Park Tower, Hudson Yards, or Billionaires’ Row — requires specialized expertise. Sponsor pricing, inventory access, and negotiation dynamics work differently than resales. Working with an agent who specializes in new development can unlock opportunities not visible in public listings.

NYC New Development Expert

New development isn’t just a different product — it’s a different game.

 

The sales office represents the developer. The pricing you see isn’t always the pricing that’s possible. And the best opportunities often never hit the open market.

 

I specialize in helping buyers navigate this world.

What I Bring to New Development Purchases

  • Access — Relationships with sales teams at the city’s most coveted buildings
  • Insight — Understanding of pricing patterns and timing that aren’t publicly visible
  • Negotiation — Experience in structuring deals that maximize buyer advantage
  • Representation — I work for you, not the developer

 

I don’t share my methodology publicly. But my clients benefit from it.

111 West 57th Street (Steinway Tower) — World’s slenderest skyscraper

Frequently Asked Questions

  • How is buying new development different from resale?

    You're negotiating with a developer, not an individual seller. Pricing, inventory, and terms work differently. The sales team represents the developer — not you. Having your own representation changes what's possible.

  • Why should I use a buyer's agent for new development?

    The sales office is helpful, but they work for the developer. A buyer's agent who specializes in new development brings access, market knowledge, and negotiating experience that protects your interests.

  • Do I pay for your services?

    In most new development transactions, the buyer's agent commission is paid by the sponsor — not by you.

  • What buildings do you specialize in?

    I focus on Billionaires' Row (Central Park Tower, Steinway Tower, One57) and Hudson Yards (35 Hudson Yards, 15 Hudson Yards). I also work with buyers on other Manhattan new developments in scarce downtown new developments.

  • Can you help me access off-market inventory?

    Yes. My relationships with sales teams often provide access to units and opportunities before they're publicly marketed.

  • What price range do you work with?

    Most of my new development clients are purchasing in the $5M–$50M+ range.

Considering a New Development Purchase?

I work with a limited number of qualified buyers on new development transactions.

If you’re exploring Billionaires’ Row, Hudson Yards, or other premier Manhattan developments, I’m happy to have a confidential conversation about what’s actually available and what’s possible.
