When we decided to sell 560 Seventh Avenue, we interviewed several of the top brokerage firms in town. All of the firms told us the value of the property was approximately $40 million. Bob Knakal and his sales team told us the site was worth $60 million. At first, we were skeptical but Bob was able to clearly articulate his methodology and we decided to go with him.

Bob was straightforward, exuded confidence - but humility, and was so enthusiastic about this opportunity. It was an easy choice to select him as our broker. The marketing program went perfectly.

I initially thought selling my building would be easy. For years, everyone on the block would be calling me and telling men they wanted to purchase the property. I never realized how treacherous the commercial real estate market could be.

Thanks again for a job extraordinarily well done!

We made the decision to retain Bob Knakal and his team based on their track record for achieving record development site pricing.

Our school had several assets to sell as we wanted to take advantage of the real estate market to raise funds to expand our educational mission. We identified several assets that we were interested in selling. Given his stellar track record, we asked Bob Knakal to take a look at all of the assets and provide his opinion of value and strategic insights about what should be sold now and what we should wait to sell. We were not expecting a broker to tell us not to sell some assets now, but that’s what Bob did. Those that he suggested we sell, we agreed with and Bob and his team did a great job for us finding perfect buyers for each of our properties. We highly recommend Bob and his team to sellers of properties in New York.

We have enjoyed a long-term relationship with Bob Knakal, Pat Yannotta and their team and have always found them highly professional and easy to work with.

They provided steadfast counsel throughout the sales process and were there to advocate for us at every twist and turn and demonstrated, several times, that they would fight for our best interest. We highly recommend them to any seller of a development site in New York City.

When it became time to sell our fee position, we looked very carefully and thoroughly for the perfect broker. We wanted a completely honorable person, who communicated well, was available, smart, connected and would work extremely hard on our behalf. We wanted someone who could reach potential buyers outside of the US and yet knew the local market and buyers inside out. Sadly, our ownership structure presented various challenges and we knew we needed a representative who could maneuver effectively with all stakeholders in this transaction and who understood complex business, tax and legal structures. After talking with a number of significant buyers and sellers in NYC and interviewing more than 10 final candidates we chose Bob Knakal and his team – and they met or exceeded our expectations in every category. Bob navigated a complicated process with intelligent (and intuitive) strategies and advice, maintaining integrity throughout the process. He remained consistently aligned with our best interest but also told us what was unreasonable or wouldn’t work and we were thrilled with the results.

When we needed to select a broker for our sales, we wanted someone who understood the local market but could also access the overseas markets for potential buyers as well. Bob Knakal and his team had done work successfully for us in the past and was a great choice for us. 920 Broadway was an office building in need of repositioning and the 38th/39th Street assets could be upgraded for continued office use, could be converted to hotel, could be considered a development site or a hybrid of these potential uses. Bob and his team exposed these assets to a wide variety of buyer types, advised us constantly throughout the process and, ultimately, produced results we were very happy with. I highly recommend Bob and his team to any seller looking to maximize their sales price.

We could not be happier with the results and are thrilled with the outcome on behalf of the church.

Our property was in an unusual zoning district for Manhattan where the FAR was well below the FAR on surrounding blocks. Based upon the tremendous impact this could have on value, we chose Bob Knakal and his team to represent us because we felt he would be effectively able to convince buyers that there was additional tangible value in our asset beyond what currently existed. Bob’s extensive knowledge and unparalleled track record within the area made him an easy choice to represent us. Our confidence in him was well founded as we achieved a price which set a record for the neighborhood. We would gladly recommend Bob and his team to other potential sellers.

Given that this transaction was time sensitive with a definitive timetable, we needed a powerful team to fully market our property, obtain offers, create a competitive bidding environment and get a buyer who could close within our deadline. Bob Knakal and his team were the perfect choice for this assignment. They did everything they said they would do and the execution didn’t miss a beat.

Bob Knakal called me for years about this site. When it was time to sell, who else was I going to call? Bob is a true professional.

Unfortunately, this sale was more challenging than expected. I didn’t fully appreciate it until we got into the sales process how much of a turn-off the condition, location and legal problems would be. Under those circumstances, I think your team did an excellent job of finding a highly credible buyer for our loan at a very good price. Thanks again for your persistence and hard work on this transaction.

Our family could not have selected better brokers for this sale than Bob and his team. They were terrific.

The team led by Bob Knakal did a superb job for us, culminating in a sale price exceeding our initial expectations. Throughout a time-consuming and tenuous process of getting the servicer to allow transfer of the existing mortgage to a new borrower, Bob’s team stayed on the case, resulting in a timely closing. As we have achieved in our prior experiences with Massey Knakal, we are very pleased with the results of this sales effort. I would not hesitate to utilize the resources of Bob Knakal again for future sales assignments.

Our bank got stuck with this asset as values fell during the savings and loan crisis. We thought the big brokerage houses wouldn’t pay attention to this small deal. We hired Bob Knakal and had confidence in him given his passion and market knowledge. This kid was amazing. He treated our building like it was the most important building in the world and got us a price above what we thought it was worth. Someday Bob is going to do something very special in the NYC brokerage world.

He has the ability to extract the last dollar from the market and positions the assets in its best possible light to maximize the price. I highly recommend Bob and his team to anyone who wants to get top dollar for their property.

After another successful transaction with him in the neighborhood, we decided to give Bob the opportunity to compete for the assignment to sell our office building at 21 Penn Plaza. He and his team gave us a valuation that was tangibly higher than the other brokers we interviewed and also told us that the buyer would not be one of the typical buyers of this type of asset. The buyer did indeed fall into the non-typical category for this type of asset and the price Bob achieved for us was in excess of his valuation. We are extremely pleased with the quality of the execution we received here.

Bob Knakal sold the property to me so it was only fitting that I have him sell it for me. Bob and his team did a fantastic job of getting me the highest possible price.

We loved working with Bob Knakal on the sale of our 45th Street property. He knows the neighborhood cold and convinced us that a residential converter was the right buyer for our property. He found that user buyer and got us a great price.

When we decided to go to market with 123 Lafayette, we knew that we needed to hire an advisor that had the unique ability to reach every sector of the investor audience in order to achieve our target pricing. We hired Bob Knakal and his team because of their specific experience with similar properties and their proficiency for reaching all local, foreign, institutional, and high net-worth investors.

We felt it was time to sell our site on Second Avenue and we were told Bob Knakal and his team would do a great job for us. We interviewed them and their track record spoke for itself.

We highly recommend them to other sellers in New York City.
