Hello,
I’m a longtime Kips Bay neighbor and Licensed Real Estate Agent for Douglas Elliman.
Aside from my recent sales and sublets in the neighborhood, I have many years of local residential Board management and Wall Street experience; providing both a business and empathetic understanding of both buyers and sellers.
I have included my contact information below, if you would like to start a conversation.
Sincerely Jonathan
What are people saying about Jonathan
“Our family had the good fortune to work with Jonathan Brenner last year, when we put our studio on the market for sale. From the very start, Jonathan was courteous, efficient, and friendly. He soon became invaluable. Jonathan was a guiding hand in all aspects of our sale: assisting with access for renovation, securing excellent photography and staging support, updating us on the status of viewers of the unit, and making himself available beyond the advertising hours for potential purchasers wishing to view the apt.
We received a good purchase offer for the unit in roughly a week. Jonathan negotiated and even more desirable contract price for us. He then stewarded the process through the co-op board approval process and assisted us throughout the pre-closing details. When unanticipated issues arose with renovations we had arranged, Jonathan took the helm to ensure all was done in due course. He assisted us from start to finish, all the way to the closing.
To say that Jonathan was a top - notch real estate agent is accurate, yet insufficient. He was a member of our team throughout, personable, accessible, and knowledgeable. We will never forget his particular kindness to our mother, the titleholder of the property, who is older and required help of many kinds at various points in the process. He was unfailingly helpful, respectful, and supportive at all times. We would unquestionably turn to Jonathan again for future real estate representation, be they purchases or sales, and readily give him the highest of recommendations to anyone who seeks a principled, trustworthy, and engaged partner in their real estate venture. You simply cannot go wrong by bringing Jonathan onto the team as early as possible.”

“Jonathan has been an invaluable partner in helping rent out my co-op unit while I'm living out of state. He promptly lists the property, organizes open houses, and quickly finds highly qualified tenants. Both times we worked together, he found the ideal tenant within days of listing the property. Jonathan also excels at navigating the co-op board's complex procedures, ensuring timely submission of documentation by prospective tenants and maintaining clear communication with all parties throughout. With Jonathan's support, what could have been a challenging process was effortlessly handled. I highly recommend working with Jonathan to anyone looking to rent out their apartment in NYC!”
— Michael W - Philadelphia, PA
“Jonathan listed a rental for me and I found him to be a good listener, an indispensable trait for a professional agent. He has a natural ease and friendliness that's genuine so the construct of trust quickly developed. On practical aspects, he gave me appropriate lead time before showing the unit and was always punctual. On a side note, Jonathan had suffered an injury to his arm but this did not diminish his energy, his good cheer nor his scheduled appointments.”

“We can’t say enough about how wonderful it is to work with Jonathan Brenner. In the spring/summer of 2021 he helped us evaluate whether we should purchase a new apartment on the Upper West Side of Manhattan. His expertise and knowledge of the market was invaluable. He helped us establish a clear understanding of what we could afford and what would be involved in putting our apartment on the market and he kept us cheerful as we made the rounds of what was available. In the end we decided to keep our apartment and renovate it, but if we were ever to stick our toe back in the real estate market, Jonathan would be the person we’d go to.”
— Jonathan & Christine S. - New York, NY
“I had a wonderful experience with Jonathan when renting out my apartment. I was out of state at the time, but he handled almost everything and made the entire process as stress-free as possible, even in the middle of the pandemic! He was always responsive and professional and overall a pleasure to work with. I would work with him again without hesitation and highly recommend him to anyone looking for a realtor!”
