“We met Esraa when we began searching for our first home in NYC, and working with her was an excellent experience from start to finish. She is professional, straightforward, and incredibly knowledgeable. From the very beginning, she helped us understand the process and guided us through every step with clarity and confidence. As first-time buyers, we didn’t know what to expect or what to look for—especially during key moments like negotiations and walkthroughs. Esraa, along with Shima, was there for us every step of the way, always available to answer questions and offer thoughtful guidance. Their attention to detail and commitment to protecting our interests truly stood out. Communication was always prompt and clear, which made the entire process feel smooth and manageable. We trusted their advice completely, and it was clear they genuinely knew what they were doing. Overall, we felt supported, informed, and confident throughout the journey. We would highly recommend Esraa and Shima to anyone looking to buy a home.”
“Shimma and Evelina are a great team who has helped us navigate the complex NYC condo buying process, tour several units and make sound recommendations. They have assisted us in preparation of documentation and timely closing of the purchase. It was a great experience working with such a professional and dedicated real estate team.”
“We had a great experience working with Shimaa and Khrem. They were supportive throughout the entire process—from the application to board interview preparation—and kept us informed every step of the way. We truly appreciate their professionalism and dedication, and highly recommend their team.”
“I am not your ordinary client, for one I’m Australian. Esra helped make the impossible possible for me. My dream come true. Esra went above and beyond every single time. She was professional, punctual and empathetic. I’ve never met a woman like her. I am truly blessed to have found her and worked with her. I look forward to continuing working with Esra for future endeavours because I know I’m in the right hands every time. I highly recommend Esra as a broker.”
“I worked with Esraee and Simaa on purchasing my first condo, and everything about the process was completely new to me. I was casually looking at properties and honestly didn’t think I would even own property in NYC until I came across the condo of my dreams. I met Esraee and she was amazing. She walked me through the entire process and answered all of my questions. I was able to ask even my “dumb” questions without ever feeling judged or unsupported. She is incredibly kind, patient, and knowledgeable. Simaa was also fantastic and helped guide me through the application process. In the end, I got the condo! They made everything feel easy and had great contacts for appraisals, mortgages, and insurance. The entire experience felt seamless and very supportive. If you ever need real estate agents, I highly recommend working with Esraee and Simaa!”
“I can honestly say Shimaa and Esraa Anwar were amazing! Their hard work, knowledge, and attention to everything including our unique concerns and all the details of search and sale are greatly appreciated! They were always responsive and ready to help with any and every question. We definitely recommend them.”
“The Anwar Group—specifically Shimaa and Anna—guided my wife and me through the process of selling our home in Harlem. We were not the easiest clients, but they met us with flexibility when needed and steady guidance when we veered off track. Selling a home is a complex and emotional process, and having knowledgeable, experienced support made the inevitable bumps far smoother. We highly recommend Shimaa and Anna to anyone seeking thoughtful, capable help navigating the NYC real estate market.”
“We met Shimaa Anwar at a showing of the house we ended up buying. In the meantime, she and her colleague Evelina showed us a number of places and was a fantastic sounding board as we came around to the fact that the very first place we saw was the right place for us. Throughout what was a sometimes complex and even momentarily fraught back and forth negotiation to go to contract, Shimaa and Evelina kept us calm and focused on what matters - really all you can ask for in a real estate relationship like this. They are also lovely people to spend time with - an important piece of this given that it can take quite a while! We highly recommend her and her wonderful team if you are looking to buy in Harlem or anywhere else in her area of expertise!”
“I recently worked with Shimaa Anwar and her colleague Khrem through the purchase of my first NYC apartment on the upper east side. Shimaa is one of the most impressive real estate professionals I’ve worked with. She is sharp, knowledgeable, decisive and extremely thorough in her work. She made purchasing an apt in the complex NYC real estate market an easy task for myself as a buyer. I highly recommend Shimaa and her team.”
“Shimaa and Anna are a great team offering guidance and support throughout the selling process especially dealing with both set backs and success moments. Selling a home with 25 years of memories, love and care takes a lot of careful thinking and planning. Shimaa and Anna were there for us when we needed space and leaned in when we needed input.”
