What Clients Are Saying


"A Real Neighborhood Expert!"

Javier was incredibly patient and knowledgeable throughout our entire home search. He really knows Bushwick and Williamsburg inside and out — he grew up there and it shows. He answered every question quickly and made the whole process smooth and stress-free. We'd happily refer him to anyone.

"He has become Family now."

Excellent realtor who truly cares about his clients. Javier was helpful in every step of preparing our listing, which resulted in a quick sale and a smooth closing. He goes above and beyond to meet any expectations. We cannot be more happier with him, highly recommend — we will definitely use him again!

"Extremadamente profesional!"

Javier is an absolute gentleman — no stones left unturned. He gave us straight answers, never any BS, and always got back to us quickly. As Spanish speakers, it was so important to work with someone who communicates fluently in both languages. 100%  AAA+ experience from start to finish.

Brooklyn Born.
Community Driven.


I am a Williamsburg, Brooklyn native now living in Flushing, Queens, specializing in real estate sales in the neighborhoods I know best, including Ridgewood and Ozone Park. With deep roots in the community, I try and  bring a personal perspective to my clients who are navigating the fast-changing NYC market.

"To be a part of this transformation and help families sell and buy in the place where I played as a kid — that is my ultimate satisfaction."

I previously spent 10 years in marketing and insurance sales before jumping into real estate. I have also spent over 20 years as a professional DJ — including four of those years performing at private events for President Barack Obama at the White House. Those experiences built the relationship skills and work ethic I bring to every deal.

Today I specialize in Brooklyn and Queens — Williamsburg, Bushwick, Ridgewood, Ozone Park, and beyond. I'm fluent in English and Spanish, a proud member of Capri Jet Realty and OneKey MLS, and I'm here to guide you through every step.
