“We cannot even begin to stress how instrumental Dugald was to our move. Not only were we not extremely familiar with Manhattan, we were also coming all the way from Texas. Dugald brought both his expertise and experience immediately to the table, but most importantly he built an unparalleled trust and provided us a peace of mind that was invaluable. He was extremely responsive, assisted us at all of our showings, spoke up on our behalf and provided his insight. Ultimately Dugald listened to what we wanted and found us a place perfect for us. We couldn’t have done this process without him!” - Konrad and Olivia

“Dugald was fantastic in helping us find our dream apartment. He showed us a great cross-section of apartments and gave us really good things to think about. He was very patient and it felt like he had as much fun finding and viewing places as we did. Once we found our perfect place, he was wonderful helping with our board package and process. Dugald and his team made sure our package was put together quickly and comprehensively and we sailed through the board process as a result. If you’re looking for a friend and confidant rather than just a broker, Dugald will not disappoint!” - Dan K.

"I'm not one to write reviews often but thought it imperative that I do after having had such a great experience.When we decided to sell our NYC apartment, finding the right realtor seemed like such a daunting task. After having consultations with a few, we decided on Dugald Loughnan and his team, Nora and Christopher from Brown, Harris, Stevens. We had such a great experience from beginning to end, that I thought it important for other sellers and buyers to know about them. From the start, we knew we were in the right hands. They really know the market in NYC and offered great advice, which put us at ease immediately. They are the real deal.

From the photography to the showings, it could not have gone more smoothly. Each showing was done by appointment, (at our convenience) with masks and booties and always a courteous thank you. Dugald always followed up each appointment with helpful information. His upbeat and positive attitude is infectious!

We were updated at every turn and always kept in the loop. When the right offer came in, after only 5 weeks, we discussed everything at length. Dugald was so generous with his time and expertise. We followed his advice, step by step and closed within a short period. Honestly, it could not have gone more smoothly. Dugald and his team are rock stars!" Chelsea Sellers
