Heather was an instrumental part of my search process and from the very beginning, looked to fundamentally understand what I, as a buyer was looking for. She was patient in dealing with all of the questions I had as a first time homeowner / co-op owner, and was always proactive in ensuring that appointments were made in a timely fashion to accomodate my schedule, that the sellers' agents were addressing immediate questions regarding the co-op and building management, and that the board application and interview processes completed smoothly. I would recommend working with Heather, whether you are a new or experience homeowner, as you will certainly be in good hands. Thank you Heather!

I had the pleasure of working with Heather for my recent apartment purchase. Heather was informative in helping me figure out realistic options given my budget and collaborated with me in finding a shortlist of apartments. Given the extremely competitive market Heather was fast and assertive in getting me apartment viewings. I ultimately found something I’m very happy with. Thank you Heather for guiding me through the steps and making me very happy with my new home!

I have never met a broker who works so hard and is so diligent in terms of navigating the often difficult world of NY real estate. Heather does not care if you're spending 300K or 3M; she gives her full attention to every detail when it comes to purchasing property. She has her finger on the pulse of all aspects of the process from finding appropriate dwellings to submitting the board package. I hope to work with her again in the future.

Heather is truly an amazing broker. She listed my apt for sale and did everything from Marketing, open house etc and we used their "Concierge" service which covered all expense for the seller (myself). Compass concierge service was extremely helpful as I did not have enough to cover the cost of repairing/renovating the coop apt. Heather is not only very professional but also has a great character and she is very knowledgeable about NYC market.
She gave me very good advice on navigating the whole process and renovating the apt via Concierge, she has great taste and I was able to finish the complicated renovation. She is great at what she does and very passionate about her work. I can trust her that she will get the job done no matter how complicated it is. She works extremely hard and is very responsive. I never had to follow up on anything in this process as Heather was always on top of everything.

I was a first-time buyer of a pied-a-terre in Manhattan and knew next to nothing about the process. Heather patiently walked me through all of her complicated steps. We encountered a few hiccups along the way, but thanks to her expertise, everything worked out I would highly recommend Heather to anyone looking to buy or sell.

Heather made our first-time buying experience very simple, patiently laying out the process and setting expectations for how long steps would take and what options and decisions there were to make. She connected us with other professionals for lending and insurance who we liked better than the ones we found on our own. Most importantly, Heather helped us deal with some unexpected last-minute problems, advocating for us and making sure the other party properly addressed our concerns - without her, we wouldn't have known what to do!

Kristen R. & Gregory J.

Heather is a fantastic realtor with amazing energy and dedication to her job. She spent over three months patiently working with us to find the perfect two-bedroom coop on the UES. She showed us over 30 properties, accompanying us to almost all of the showings. Furthermore, as first-generation NYC homeowners, she guided us through the whole process, connecting us with the appropriate people along the way. Heather is extremely responsive, tenacious and dependable. She served as a wonderful advocate for us.

Knowledgeable in all areas of the city and the real estate market. Overall, a joy to work with... we love Heather!!

Teresa G.

Been working with Heather for a while and we found the perfect NYC apartment. She was very detail oriented, diligent in the negotiations process. She knows the Manhattan market and we were very lucky to have worked with her as a buyers agent. Thank you Heather for all your hard work!

Veronica R.

I was impressed by Heather’s level of sales experience, knowledge and professionalism, and Compass is a widely respected company.

From the first to the last day, Heather was professional, pleasant, friendly and helped to guide us throughout the sales process, provided great comps, and worked tirelessly to ensure the Coop was ready for showings. She was always available to answer all questions and provide assistance whenever needed.

Our Coop required a little bit of work, Heather helped to connect us with experienced, licensed/insured engineers and contractors. Heather worked well with our attorney, the building’s management company and eventually the buyer’s agent.

I am happy to share my experience with you; with Heather’s help, we were able to find an amazing buyer – and have a smooth closing.

I would highly recommend Heather Cooper (Compass Realty), to any of my friends and family!

Alexander H.

Heather was phenomenal throughout the whole experience. I had multiple changing circumstances and multiple changing preferences and Heather was supportive and effective in finding the best possible outcome.

Heather was very helpful in not only finding an apartment but also helping to arrange inspections, helping with the legal aspect, helping to follow up to ensure the seller is making agreed upon renovations, etc.

I am thrilled that Heather was my broker and if I need to ever make another real estate transaction I know who I will go to.

The personification of white glove service.
