Specialties

Generalists »

I specialize in condominium and townhouse sales to users and investors from all parts of the world. Each year, I sell over $50 million worth of Manhattan real estate.

Townhouses specialists »

I own and live in a single family townhouse. Having gone through purchase and two years of renovation, I have personal experience dealing with architects, city permits, contractors and expeditors. I can help guide sellers and buyers through the process and save a lot of their precious time.

New condos specialists »

Most of my clients are attracted to new buildings in the city. Therefore, I have toured almost each and every new development in Manhattan. My knowledge in that sector of the market helps my clients identify the right property that best suites their needs. My expertise spares my clients the long process of researching and screening.

Sellers leaving NYC »

In many cases, clients who are relocating away from the city are under a lot of pressure. I have successfully helped many of them sell their property during this hectic time in their lives. I try to understand their unique situation, and alleviate some of the stress they are under by making my service available for them on their schedules.

Agent's personal statement

My reputation for putting my client’s needs above all has been both recognized and appreciated over my more than 10 years in the business. It is also the key to my success as a top-notch, results-oriented residential sales specialist who’s constantly achieved more than $50 million in sales annually.

 

Originally from Shanghai, I completed undergraduate studies in Accounting then moved here to earn my Masters degree in Finance. Moving then to Hong Kong, I enjoyed working for major hotel groups and airlines first in Accounting, then Pricing, and later in Sales and Marketing. My financial education coupled with demanding sales, marketing, accounting, and management responsibilities prepared me for a successful real estate career.

 

My interest in real estate piqued upon becoming a successful investor while in Hong Kong. I brought my expertise to San Francisco where I lived before falling in love with and moving to New York. Specializing in the city’s luxury condominium, townhouse and co-op market, I pride myself on my ability to focus on each individual’s unique needs.

 

I am fluent in English, Mandarin, Cantonese, and Shanghainese and love my work. Outside of selling and investing in real estate, I also enjoy dabbling in stocks and travelling the world.

“Janet instilled confidence in me when I was selling my UES condo because of her diligence and knowledge.”

Okkes O.

Posted October 15, 2009. Verified October 20, 2009.

I had a great experience working with Janet and I would definitely recommend her without question. When I decided to relocate, Janet sold my condo on the Upper East Side. Janet is well-rounded. She is diligent, articulate, clever and friendly. When you speak with Janet, you are instilled with confidence, because she clearly possesses the necessarily skills to deliver what her client wants.
“I'm a real estate developer who has worked throughout the country. Point blank, Janet is the best agent I've worked with. She sees long-term potential.”

Rodger B.

Posted October 13, 2009. Verified October 13, 2009.

I am a real estate developer and I have worked with Janet regularly over the past several years. Janet is the top broker I have dealt with in the country, flat out. She has a strong sense of the big picture. Other brokers are much more transaction-based, but Janet sees opportunities for long-term potential. She is not just trying to push a product, she has the client’s interest at heart. No one else is able to match Janet’s sophistication and her ability to understand the needs of the individual. She knows what makes sense and is also straight-forward and honest about what does not make sense for a given client. I recommend Janet highly; she is the best -- point blank.
“Janet is good at keeping me up to date with the latest developments in the deal we are hoping to close.”

Janet has been helpful in my search to buy a second home on Central Park West. There is a delay in the closing because of the developer’s problems, but Janet continues to help us to stay in contact with the owner. Even though the deal is not near closing, I feel like Janet is keeping me abreast about the latest details and developments in the process. I would recommend her to others.
“Janet helped me relocated to NYC and purchase a co-op on the UES.”

Janet is amazing. I was relocating to New York this summer when Janet helped me purchase a co-op on the Upper East Side. Janet is the hardest working agent I have ever come across. She will find a way to get things done when others would simply throw up their arms. Also, she has an amazing network of people (from the attorney to the house painter) who she recommends and are excellent. Overall, you really feel like you are in the best hands when working with Janet.
“Worked with Janet to purchase a condo on the UES for investment purposes.”

Janet helped me to buy a condo on the Upper East Side as an investment. She was both professional and helpful. She was top-notch in every element. I would give Janet five stars across the board. Her excellent market knowledge, communication skills, negotiating skills and responsiveness made the transaction proceed smoothly. That's really all that needs to be said.
