Lara was the perfect fit for my Dad’s apartment at 860 UN Plaza in New York City. She took the time to make sure everything was perfect at the apartment before showings. She advertised the apartment all over the world. Lara and her team would give me weekly updates so I never would be wondering what was happening with the sale. During the pandemic, every precaution was taken. Since Lara lived in the building she was able to help with workers that needed to come and go so I wouldn’t have to stress to be there. It was a pleasure working with Lara and her team. If you get the opportunity to work with Brown Harris you will be in great hands.” - Jane P.
