Jim Cornell and Leslie Marshall have always been consistent top producing agents in their own right and once they teamed up, became one of Brooklyn’s most successful sales teams ever. With over thirty years of combined real estate experience (Jim with 20 years, and Leslie with 10), these industry veterans sell Brownstone Brooklyn’s townhouses, co-ops and condos of all sizes, and in all price ranges. Where most buyers and sellers hope to retain the services of one top agent, the Cornell-Marshall Group provides the expertise, tenacity and professionalism of two, along with the support of a network of associated agents in each of Corcoran’s four Brooklyn offices and several offices in Manhattan.
They have been hired to market well-known larger Brooklyn developments like Boerum Hill’s renowned 14 Townhouses, Third + Bond in Carroll Gardens and Cobble Hill Towers. They also maintain a successful boutique business handling smaller buildings such as the award-winning L3 in Carroll Gardens and the highly regarded green development 515 5th Avenue in Park Slope. Proud of the loyalty of their buyers and sellers, this past year Jim and Leslie closed on their fourth transaction with not one but two different buyers and sold several properties for the third or fourth time. Their team concept – to offer personalized top broker service in a wide geographical area without compromising personal attention to each buyer and seller -- has worked wonders. Jim and Leslie are one of the Brooklyn Division’s top sales teams, and rank among the top brokers in Corcoran's 1,500-person sales force. They were recently named in The Real Deal’s “Best Of Brooklyn”, and are included in the Wall Street Journal’s Top 250 in the Country ranking of real estate professionals nationwide.

While many sellers might balk at the commission (no bargains here, I paid the full 6%!) Jim earned in what appeared to be a very short amount of time, I feel that he was worth every penny.— , Seller
Given the nature of the current real estate market, we were doubly impressed with Jim's calm leadership and confidence. He stayed on top of the details and got involved when necessary and always with the right degree of urgency or tact.— , Seller
I do not believe this purchase would have been completed without your attention to detail and determination.— , Buyer
