After a year of looking at houses, I had a good idea of what I was looking for, what areas had to offer, and what the prices were. I also had experience with a variety of brokers, some didn't call back, some didn't know their merchandise or neighborhoods, some knew nothing of housing construction or codes. Josh and his fellow brokers at Online hit the mark on everything—they answered emails and phone calls at all hours, they had actually seen the properties I was interested in BEFORE showing it to me, and had extensive knowledge of home ownership—from insurance to construction to laws that impact what you can do with your building. Using Online will make your home buying experience as smooth as possible in the uniquely stressful NYC environment. If you buy from a contractor as I did, do not close until they are finished no matter what they promise. I worked in good faith with the professional banker, broker, and seller's attorney, and agreed to close quickly based on a contract to finish in a month. They haven't finished and I don't yet have a habitable house.
When Tony told me that I can write a review, I [jokingly] responded; "I'll think about it". As I am writing it now, I can only think of so many AMAZING things to say about them. Tony and Josh are such GREAT PROFESSIONALS. I don't know if I would have my house if it weren't for them! Since the very first call from their office, I felt that I could count on them to help me find my home. They are so PATIENT, HELPFUL, UNDERSTANDING and always willing to go the extra mile. I had a slight issue with the seller when ready to close but Josh and Tony found a way to resolve it. They are always available to answer all your questions and concerns. Both of them are "super cool" too, they take their job very seriously and provided me with all their knowledge and professional advice to complete the purchase. They were pending of everything at every step of the way throughout the whole process. They make a GREAT TEAM along with the rest of the staff. I HIGHLY RECOMMEND THEM TO ANYONE WHO IS LOOKING FOR A REALTOR. I contacted other Realtors before Online Homes, but usually after showing me a couple of houses they expected me to like it and buy it, however at Online Homes, they are so PATIENT, and I know for a fact that Tony will be willing to show you 100 houses if he has to without the arrogant attitude that others may have. They are the SIMPLY THE BEST!!!
My partner and I looked for months for a home in brownstone Brooklyn that was both affordable and move-in ready. Couldn't find anything. But shortly after we met Online Homes' Sara Golan, she whizzed us around to a whole mess of off-the-radar properties we'd never heard of. One of these turned out to be our home. The folks at Online got us a (slightly) better deal than the sellers wanted, and held our hands through a buying process -- a process the sellers insisted on making as messy and difficult as possible, but through which our brokers remained calm, responsive, patient, and unfailingly generous with their time.
We really enjoyed working with Tom, Josh, Eureka and team. They were very supportive throughout our home buying process and really showed us the ropes, which was a great advantage considering we came into the fold without representation from our own broker. Tom was especially helpful in negotiating the works to be done on the property prior to our closing. To be honest, we got much more than we bargained for and a significantly better home than we could have imagined prior to meeting with them. Thank you everyone!
Josh and his team (Gorgie and Bryan) were excellent in helping me buy my home. He answered all my questions i had with the home, sold me the home from a quality developer, and guided me through the whole process. I highly recommend him for anyone looking for a home in Bushwick.
We had such a hard time finding a real estate agent that was honest and supportive. Sara and Josh were incredible. They treat you like a friend and make themselves available to you daily. They are patient, kind, and incredibly knowledgeable about the Brooklyn Real Estate market. We feel very lucky to have had them on our side (which, unlike other agents, they genuinely were). They went above and beyond what I think the agent should have to do. I would recommend them 100% to anyone I know.
OH YEAAH THE BEST EVER COCORAN SOUNDED BIG BUT HAD TERRIBLE SERVICE BRIAN AT ONLINE HOMES IS THE GREATEST I WAS THE HAPIEST BUYER IN BUSHWICK AFTER DEALING WITH NON CARING PEOPLE THEN FINALLY MEETING BRIAN MAY
Sara Golan of online homes was incredible during the entire process of buying our home and she was actually the seller's broker. She provided fair and honest information through the entire transaction and kept us abreast of ant deveopments. We were fortunate that she represented the seller as she made the whole process easier.
Great experience with Sara, Josh and Brian at Online Homes. They did not quit until they found me the perfect 3 family property in Bushwick. I highly recommend them for anyone looking for an investment or primary residence in Brooklyn. They have great market knowledge and listings database.
I have been looking for a 2 family home in Bushwick for 2 years and met many brokers during my research. Josh, Brian and Yurika from online homes had the best knowledge of the neighborhood and were very customer service driven. I appreciated the professionalism and patience as I can be a demanding customer. Bushwick is a Spanish neighborhood and I wanted someone that understands the culture and speaks the language. Yurika was able to show me more houses because she understands the language and culture. She was very thoughtful and easy to work with.
I just bought my first home. Sara and Online Homes were a major help in the process of finding the right house, I’m happy that I had them on my side. The entire team is extremely knowable (both in regards to $$ and the house itself) and they were very focused on finding a solution that will end in getting the house. They were also the realtors that I learned the most from. There were never any dilly dallyingI. Only good service. Needless to say that I’ll call them next time. Thanks!
Sara has been extremely helpful during my search for home. She worked diligently and was extremely knowledgeable and helpful. She was always available to talk and answered all my questions. She also connected me to the appropriate lender. Sara showed us multiple homes and did not stop until she found us the perfect home! I highly recommend Sara. As a first time home buyer, the process can be very daunting but Sara made everything easy and worry free. She has been excellent and is great at what she does. The service she has provided was excellent.
Working with Online Home Real Estate to look for a house was a wonderful experience! Josh and Bryan were professional, courteous, and extremely knowledgeable about not only real estate, but real estate specifically in the Brooklyn area. I would certainly work with them again. Highly recommend using Online Home Real Estate!
Both Bryan and Josh were terrific to work with. My wife and I used them for our first home and our experience couldn't have been better. They took care of all of the heavy lifting and it didn't hurt that I saved a ton of $. I will absolutely work with them again. Thanks guys!

I was terrified when I decided to embark on the life-altering process of purchasing a home. I was fortunate to have found Sara on Zillow and began working with her early on in the process. I was impressed with her first-hand knowledge of Brooklyn and immediately trusted her judgement. This helped ease my fears, and, in fact, I felt empowered throughout the entire process. Sara asked all the right questions and worked quickly to find the perfect home for me. She was available any time I needed her to answer all my questions, from "what is a good percentage to offer as a deposit?" to "how does the inspection work?" to "why am I responsible for paying for the title?" Through this process, I learned a lot and I appreciated that Sara was next to me the entire time. She took the initiative to facilitate much of the process, ensuring a balance between explaining the process to me and keeping me comfortable on the one hand, and moving everything swiftly along on the other. This was crucial, as many properties move quickly in Brooklyn; I would have been lost without her patience and support. Importantly, Sara offered recommendations for a lawyer, inspector and insurance agent. I knew right away that I was in good hands with Sara and trusted her recommendations, which provided me with excellent service. I highly recommend working with Sara for buying and/or selling property in Brooklyn. She is professional, organized, well-connected, and extremely competent.
Sara Golan and her team were great. They took their time and found the perfect property that best suits me and my family. They were always ready to answer any of my questions. Will definitely recommend them, for future real estate deals
I really appreciated having Sara & her colleague Irina's help purchasing a home in Bushwick recently. I was asking for a difficult thing -- a 2-family house at a 2-years-ago price -- and I started out writing to several agents from whom I never heard back. But Sara & Irina did the work to find and show me those rare affordable listings out there. And when I was ready to move on a purchase, I was so happy with the great team of other professionals Sara had put together. Her recommendations for a home inspector, lending team, and attorney were all spot on. I enjoyed working with all these folks and am so grateful they were able to guide me through several exciting crises -- like discovering my accountant had misfiled my 2015 taxes and the sellers requesting a drastically delayed closing date -- to the point that I now own my own home!
Sara has made our home buying process as smooth and efficient as possible. Sara quickly and clearly understood our timeline/budget/house/neighborhood requirements when we reached out to her after already having looked exhaustively online. She recommended certain neighborhoods over others based on our specific needs, and put together a list of properties we could access in person during 2hrs of our very limited availability. Throughout the home buying process and even after, she has always been responsive, kind and clear. Sara was also able to recommend lenders, lawyers and other service providers, some of whose services we have used and appreciated. During the negotiating process, she was our advocate and would point out/clarify things we might not have considered. We highly recommend Sara Golan’s services to anyone looking to buy, sell, rent.
Buying in NYC can be complicated but working with Sara Golan made the process much better. Simultaneously, Sara helped us sell one apartment and purchase another. This required careful timing and coordination. Sara's guidance, knowledge, and patience helped us navigate the process and stay two steps ahead. I particularly appreciated Sara's availability and communication. No matter the time, day or night, Sara was always available to speak with us. I've already recommended Sara to some of my closest friends, and I would one thousand percent work with Sara again.
Sandy did an outstanding job assisting me with selling my condo. I was impressed by her professionalism, knowledge and dedication. She has deep understanding of the local real estate market and knew exactly how to position my unit. Within just 14 days of listing, Sandy had secured a contract at a great price. Choosing Sandy as my agent was one of the best decisions I've made.
Sandy did an amazing job selling my condo. From start to finish she provided advice and insight: assessing what needed to be done to get the apartment ready for sale (not much); setting a price; encouraging multiple bids; providing information about the process all along the way. The apartment sold in TWO days, over the asking price. She has continued to be an invaluable resource, always responsive and informative. I couldn't have had a better experience and highly recommend Sandy Abbas.
Sandy did an outstanding job assisting us with the sale of our home. Her expertise in the market’s geographic area was instrumental in determining the right price. Sandy was very involved in all aspects of the sale. She was friendly, patient, responsive, set up a group chat to keep us updated on the process and towards the end on a daily basis, she even joined us the day of the closing to support us. Her recommendations helped the sale and we were able to close on a timely matter. She made the imposible, possible and we were able to sell our home under our conditions and for the price we wanted. We will forever be grateful for all her support and professionalism. We will recommend her for life!
