Smith Hanten Properties

"Peter and James did such an amazing job helping us sell our apartment in Boerum Hill. Their knowledge of the area is unparalleled, and they helped us think through various bids. Great advice in a challenging rising rate environment. Highly recommend!"

"Smith Hanten is a boutique real-estate agency in Boerum Hill, Brooklyn. Peter and James are an incredible source of information and local knowledge of what's happening in the Brooklyn real-estate market. I have rented 3 apartments through them and they did an amazing job, they were always there with advice and answers to any questions I posed. If and when I need to rent an apartment again Smith Hanten and Peter McGuire will be whom I call."

"If you are looking to lease a commercial or residential property in Brooklyn, Peter McGuire has to be your first choice as a broker! Peter has been phenomenal to work with! He is genuine, dedicated, and passionate about the community of Boerum Hill. From the very beginning he has shown great commitment to a win-win balance for all parties involved. All steps of the process - from arranging the tour of the property to negotiations with the landlord to signing the lease - have been handled professionally and thoroughly. His insights about the local community have been very informative and helpful. Peter and his partner James are incredibly talented real estate professionals, and we highly recommend them to any entrepreneur looking to establish their business or residence in Boerum Hill or downtown Brooklyn."

"I loved my experience with Smith Hanten. Having dealt with a handful of other brokers in the area, I had a bad taste in my mouth walking into any broker's office. But Peter completely changed my view of the whole apartment hunting experience. He was so helpful, completely straightforward, and just an all around good guy. He never pressured me to make a decision or to sign paperwork I wasn't ready for or to give them a deposit on an apartment I didn't want (all things that other brokers pushed me to do). Peter was a delight to work with. I'm telling you - work with Smith Hanten. You won't regret it!"

"Generally I'm not a huge fan of the broker process when renting in NYC, but I had a great experience with Peter McGuire and recommend him and Smith Hanten. I knew I wanted a place in Carroll Gardens and found a cute listing on Craigslist. I sent Peter an email and within a few hours was checking out the place. Within a few days I was signing the lease- and have since moved into an apartment I love. Peter was helpful throughout the process and was an advocate for me as well as a broker. All in all, a good person to work with if you want an apartment in the area!"
