As a native New Yorker from day one, you could say that Matthew Berkson has New York “in his blood,” and his vivacious energy and sharp intellect are just some of the reasons for his success in the Manhattan real estate market. Having also lived throughout the US including Florida, Michigan, & California, Matthew’s knowledge of real estate markets is vast, and his further worldly travels allow him to work with any type of personality seamlessly.
What Matthew brings to any real estate transaction is experience, hard work, and an impassioned focus on customer service as he is a multiple winner of the annual “Top Customer Service” real estate agent award. “It truly is all about people,” says Matthew. “They aren’t just your clients, but human beings, and purchasing or selling a home is a very personal and emotional event in their lives. My paramount focus is to ensure that my clients are not just fully informed and comfortable with the process, but elated with any transaction we work on together.”
As well as having sold millions worth of New York City real estate servicing buyers, sellers & investors, Matthew is also well-versed in the high-end Manhattan rental market. Over the years he has completed several rental transactions north of $10,000 a month including one for $32,000, which earned him another award for the “Largest Rental Transaction” at the time.
Overall, Matthew’s goal is to be his clients’ “broker for life,” as he starts any professional relationship with the mindset that he will work with a customer on every sale, purchase, or rental his they require as their lives grow and needs change. “There is no greater compliment I can receive than a client coming back to work with me a second, third, or fourth time, or referring me to someone they know,” says Matthew. “That is the greatest testament that you have impacted their lives in a positive way and what makes me truly excited about the career I have.”
Prior to his real estate career, Matthew was an aspiring filmmaker having lived in Los Angeles working for such companies as Turner Broadcasting, MTV Networks, and Miramax among others. He is still incredibly passionate about film and even recently completed a documentary short.
