Hank was an absolute dream to work with. He made everything seem so easy and he was so responsive, punctual, informative and knowledgeable. We got a great price for the apartment and my parents and I are all very happy with the entire process from start to finish with Hank. I referred him to my neighbor upstairs and he now has her apartment on the market as well. She has told me how extremely happy she is with the recommendation to work with Hank. Any future referrals I have for NYC will all go to Hank, as I know whoever needs to be taken care of will be in good hands.

“Hank Orenstein is the ideal real estate agent. He is dependable, thorough, deeply knowledgeable, and extremely hard-working. Hank's knowledge of New York City and its real estate market is unparalleled. Most importantly, it was clear that he had ONLY my best interest at heart. In the end, Hank sold my apartment in for 30% more than I'd paid for it just three years prior.

My search for a new home was a beautiful puzzle resolved piece by piece Hank Orenstein. One day he brought me to Harlem, an area unfamiliar to me even after living in New York for 32 years. Like a professor of history, he invited me to retrace each step of this fabled enclave, recounting all the while the legends and changing fortunes of each area. I was intrigued, charmed and finally won over.

Hank's incredibly high level of attention to the details of the sale, balanced by his ability to stay on top of big-picture priorities, were exactly the qualities I needed in a listing agent. Hank inspires total confidence, and he also has the rare gift of knowing how to get everyone to the table, even in the case of the most restrictive co-op boards.

My husband and I worked with Hank on buying our first home in Brooklyn and we could not recommend him more. At the beginning of our search, we weren't certain what neighborhood we wanted to end up in, and Hank was also the perfect guide for this. When we did find an apartment we loved, Hank ably guided us through the offer process and managed to remain patient aeven when we were anxious.

We loved the fact that Hank is so passionate and knowledgeable not only about his job but also the history of distinct New York neighborhoods. We had both had moved to New York from different continents. Hank introduced us to new neighborhoods and hidden gems that were not on our radar back then. We now live in our dream home in one of NY's most revered historic districts and couldn’t be happier.

We decided to tap Hank Orenstein as a real estate broker when we decided to sell our precious Gramercy apartment, where I had been living for 30 years Within short order Hank took us on an extensive and enjoyable tour of the new neighborhood we had in mind--Hamilton Heights. We ended up in a sprawling one-bedroom. We sold high and bought low under Hank's skillful direction. Hank is a gem.
