Kevin Kurland always knew he’d move to New York City and run a successful startup business of some kind. Ironically, it was the move itself that gave him his greatest inspiration.

Kevin’s exhaustive apartment search uncovered an arrogant, factory-like real estate culture that ultimately failed to deliver him the type of residence he truly wanted. “They handled too many clients, too many properties they hardly knew about … treated me like a number, and were especially put off by the college set … with their multiple roommates, pressure wall dividers that many buildings don’t even allow, co-guarantors, and low commissions.”

Alas, an idea was born. Rewrite the script to better serve this important and growing college demographic … live and breathe select properties in select neighborhoods that meet their needs. It was an idea whose time had come.

Since 1997, Kurland Realty has thrived as a boutique agency that focuses on niche markets and neighborhoods with unrivaled ability to match seller and buyer – with passion, integrity, and expertise. Most importantly notes Kevin, “We give people what they come for in the first place – a special place to call home. We all deserve that!”

Over the years Kurland Realty has added expert rental, sales, and commercial real estate services in neighborhoods throughout the New York metropolitan area – yet always holds onto its boutique niche market approach.

“We love to make people feel important … eliminate their anxiety, and share our love of New York with them. Most of our clients are referrals, which speaks to the superior quality of our services and our people. We are truly a family company.”
