“TLDR: call Jack. Like, now.”
“It is almost impossible to articulate how much we loved working with Jack Isquith. We developed a refrain of “In Jack We Trust” as he led us through four trying months of finding and purchasing our coop apartment – including scares about a competing all-cash-offer, impasses over what was on the loan documents, and even a bank going caput!”
Jack Isquith
Lic. R.E. Salesperson
Combining emotional intelligence, data-driven analytical ability, and tenacious negotiating skills, Jack Isquith is one of the premiere real estate agents in all of New York City.
Jack came to the industry in 2017 and was honored as a “Strategic Star” by Brown Harris Stevens in his first year with the company. In 2019 he joined the Harkov Lewis Team, now ranked No.12 in the US, No. 2 in NYC, and No. 1 companywide at Brown Harris Stevens.
Jack has risen to the top of his field, garnering a “Best of Zillow’ designation for outstanding customer service and agent performance. With a warm personality and a strong competitive streak honed by his years as a C-suite music and technology executive, Jack has orchestrated numerous bidding wars for his sellers, and won the same battles on behalf of his buyers.
Jack does not view himself merely as a salesperson, but instead as a consummate residential real estate advisor, problem-solver and value creator. Leveraging his superior market knowledge, attention to detail, communication skills, and innovative marketing tactics – Jack treats every client with focus and integrity.
"Jack was attentive, communicative, and managed the entire process well. Even in a tough market when apartments like ours stalled, Jack foundbthe right buyer and navigated a complex set of atypical circumstances to get a good deal done.
Bravo Jack and Team."
“With Jack, we got an apartment therapist who recognized my anxious persona, found the humor in it, but also didn’t at any point invalidate or dismiss my feelings. We got an incredible team of Jack people – a lawyer who was extraordinarily competent and kind, and mortgage brokers who, while experiencing a real threat to their livelihoods, remained professional and consistent. We also got genuine care.”
"Jack was extremely knowledgeable and helpful throughout the entire buying process. He is extremely well versed in the New York City area and gives honest weighted advice in order to air in our decision making. I would work with Jack again and highly recommend for anyone looking for a trusted realtor. "
“From comparative analysis to pricing strategy to helpful recommendations on getting the apartment ready, Jack’s guidance and recommendations gave us confidence that we were dealing with someone who really knew the ins-and-outs of real estate marketing.”
“Jack was the most helpful, resourceful, and kind realtor I’ve worked with.”
“I’ve worked with Jack as a prospective buyer, and as a successful seller. Both experiences were extremely positive. Jack is responsive, knowledgeable, fair and an overall treat to work with. He’s patient, not pushy, yet keeps things moving.”
“Jack was the most utter delight to work with!! Jack is extremely communicative and reliable, qualities that are highly valuable to a first time home-buyer like me. He also brings a high level of mastery in negotiations and is also extremely collaborative when making tactical decisions. Such a wonderful human through and through, and I cannot sing his praises enough!”
"Jack was an absolute pleasure to work with. He expertly guided me through every step of the purchase process and was an excellent communicator. Whenever I had a question, he got back to me quickly with clean, and actionable information, analysis, and advice. He was transparent when he did not have an immediate answer yet and shared an ETA.
Jack also proactively pointed out pitfalls in the purchase process which put me at ease. He was very upfront about the positives and negatives of the apartments we looked at to give me a full picture. Further, his organizational skills were excellent- Jack stayed on top of everything through my process; he had great follow-through and kept the sale moving smoothly.
Lastly, Jack shared people from his network – mortgage lender, inspectors, etc.- and they were all excellent. I look forward to working with Jack again"
"As a first-time buyer, I relied on Jack to lead me through a bidding war in a tight market in Clinton Hill. Without any pressure, he gave well-reasoned, grounded guidance for submitting a best and final offer. He supported my information needs from beginning to end, providing good overviews of processes and recommendations for lawyers and — after my bid was successful — local painters, etc. I recommend Jack unequivocally."
"Jack is a phenomenal agent putting the buyers needs in front of anybody else's. He was patient and assisted me all the way through my first NY home buying experience to ensure I made a thoughtful great home purchase decision"
" We have worked with various agents in the past 10 years and the reliability and trust that Jack brings to the table is unmatched. Not only does he care to listen and provide specifics around what we were looking for, he also intuitively understands his clients. Blindspots any homebuyer is privy to, he makes it a point to call out. I would say in my experience, most agents are just looking for a sale. Not Jack. Each step of the way, he took the consideration and care to look at homes with us as if it were his own. Jack did not fear to step in and ensure we were meeting our original goals while also giving his expert opinion in areas we could not foresee. I think trust is the most valuable quality you can find in any thought partner and as our agent, Jack exceeded this. "
"Jack is the consummate professional. He has a deep market knowledge. He helped us narrow our focus to specific buildings understanding which ones met our needs. When it came time to make an offer and negotiate a deal, he was prepared with every relevant market metric one would want. He knew the hot button issues on the seller's side and was able to navigate to an excellent result. I recommend him highly."
"Jack was extremely pleasant to work with and really got to know us and what we were looking for. His neighborhood expertise led us to our dream home, and his knowledge of the market and his personal touch helped us make the right offer. He even recommended us a great handyman to get our old home ready for a new resident. I would recommend Jack to anyone who wants an agent that treats them like a person and considers all their needs."
"Gentleman Jack was great in every way. Knowledgeable. Understood and passed along important information about the market in our neighborhood. Patient. Stayed optimistic even when prospective buyers were few. Listened to our needs and respected them. Didn’t insist on staging the way other brokers did. Jack is smart about more than just real estate. And, most importantly, he is an honorable human being! "
