"We just bought the apartment of our dreams with Ben Willig! At the beginning my younger daughter showed interest in an apt on Trulia and He immediately answered back. While I was in Italy visiting my family Ben showed the apt. to my husband and our 2 daughters. At that time - January 2016 - we started looking at the market : we had been living in the city for 2 years in a rental apt and wanted to buy our own place. That first apt didn't fill our requirements but it was the first contact between Ben and my family. He understood perfectly what we had in mind and showed us just what we could like. During the process he was never pushy and always gave us great advices. Finally, after a few months, we found the perfect place. Then he showed us GREAT negotiating skills! Even after we made our closing Ben is always there to help me to solve little problems I may have regarding the move in etc. Ben is the perfect broker and he is a great guy!!! "

"We were visiting New York from Philadelphia and had two and a half days to look at 1-2 bedroom condos. Ben who was recommended by a friend greeted us at our hotel, before check-in and showed us several properties throughout the city for two days. The initial search was based on a list of possible properties that Ben had preselected with our feedback on Agentfolio. In order to use our limited time efficiently, Ben provided a driver and had prearranged our itinerary with appointments at various properties. Ben''s knowledge of NYC gave us a good feel of the prices, architecture, amenities and safety of each area. Ben is a good listener and readily modified what we saw on the second day based on our first day''s experience. The final half day involved returning to our favorite condo in the financial district. Within 5 days we had an accepted offer. He then provided assistance and guidance through the condo application process and within a month of our initial search we were condo owners. At our request he also provided useful suggestions for possible lawyers to use at closing. Ben was attentive and thoroughly professional throughout the process. Without his experience and guidance I doubt whether we would have found our condo and would certainly not have been ushered through the process so efficiently. I feel that no one could could have done better. We would definitely use his services again should the need arise. "

"I really enjoyed working with anchor. They made finding an apartment not only a seamless process but also a pretty fun one. It's easy to become overwhelmed in looking for a new place to live but Ben, who I worked with, took the edge off and made the whole process exciting again. I would absolutely use them the next time I need to find an apartment to rent."

"Ben goes way beyond the traditional function of a real estate agent. His enthusiasm and expertise made him a trusted real estate advisor for me, often drawing on his own personal experiences in the New York City real estate market to educate me and inform my decisions. I have worked with Ben on many occasions, but most recently on my acquisition of an apartment in Manhattan. Before I had even decided to buy, Ben scheduled time with me to share valuable insights and considerations before entering the market. From that conversation to the day I obtained my accepted offer was just about 6 weeks. During those 6 weeks, Ben worked tirelessly and we saw over 60 units! During the search, Ben was attentive to my feedback, carefully curating listings to align with my evolving views on what was important for my home. After 3-4 weeks, Ben effectively knew what I wanted better than I did; on one Sunday, I saw 3 consecutive listings that satisfied all my top criteria and ended up putting in offers on each! And his dedication to the process did not end once I had my accepted offer. He was critical in project managing the entire process from that initial conversation, through closing and even extending himself to assist me in other questions that I continue to have such as homeowners insurance and renovations. He was adept at dealing with management companies, selling brokers, bankers, lawyers and all the other key stakeholders in the process. He was also highly responsive and available at all times to answer questions or provide updates. Any market participant, whether novice or experienced, will be at a significant advantage with Ben as an advocate. "

"Friendly, professional, efficient, effective. This was my second consecutive year working with Ben Willig at Anchor Associates and both years I have ended up with my dream apartment. Ben is super friendly and goes the extra mile for his clients - whether it's pulling strings to get into apartments that haven't even been listed yet or staying after hours to help with lease-signing. For both apartment searches, Ben lined up a ton of places for us to see (typically 6-8 units per outing) which was not only time-effective but also gave us many options to choose from until we found a place we loved. He also stuck to apartments within our price range and didn't push us into anything, which I definitely appreciated and can be hard to find with other NYC realtors. After we found our apartment, he was literally calling the landlord from the cab on the way to his office to make sure we got it, and we were signed-sealed-delivered just 72 hours later! Ben is a pro and I would definitely work with him again."
