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.

Bob, you did a fantastic job for me in the sale of 351 East 52nd Street. You know how hard I worked to vacate the property just so a user could buy it. You told me a foreign government would be a logical buyer and a foreign government you found. Well done and thanks for all the hard work!

When it was time to sell a unique property we owned on Amsterdam Avenue, we knew we needed a brokerage team that had a great reputation, an extensive track record, an understanding of the local marketplace and, importantly, had expertise in user property sales as we knew that a user buyer would lead to an optimal result for us.

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.

Our pricing expectations were admittedly aggressive, but Bob Knakal and his team convinced us that by maximizing the exposure of the site to a very broad market, that a first time or non-obvious buyer, large private equity firms partnered with new market players could be obtained who would pay us our price.

Overall, we were thrilled with their team’s execution and would certainly look to use their team again.

I chose Bob to help me and he did a remarkable job. He had my back every step of the way. Bob, thank you! You helped my family more than you will ever know.

Bob Knakal's advice shaped the initial parameters at the outset that they worked carefully to adhere to providing regular reporting on their activities backed up with access as needed to drill deeper on any questions I had.

From the start of this project, we assumed the tenant on the ground floor would be the most logical buyer for a number of reasons but we just couldn’t get them to the fair price. Bob Knakal and his team implemented some very ingenious tactics in the marketing of this property and, ultimately, the tenant purchased the property but at a much more favorable price than was previously offered. Bob did a great job for us here.

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.

When I was selecting a broker to represent me, Bob Knakal’s track record really stood out. It felt like he sold every building in the neighborhood. Bob did a great job for me on the sale and found a user to purchase the property, just as he said he would. I highly recommend him to other sellers.

Bob Knakal told us a user would be the buyer for our Greene Street property and a user was indeed the buyer. Bob and his team did a great job!

When it was time for us to sell 130 William Street, market conditions were not ideal and I needed a broker who I knew would go above and beyond to get the job done for me.

Throughout the process, it was clear that Bob was keeping our best interests in mind every step of the way and made sure that we received our marketing reports every week. We were extremely pleased with the job Bob and his team did and look forward to our next transaction together.

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. After trying to sell by myself for several months, I decided I needed help and hired Bob Knakal to guide me through the sales process. I am so glad I did that. Bob helped me maneuver through these shark infested waters and led me to safety. The number of twists and turns that occurred were significant and Bob had an answer or strategic solution for every curveball that was thrown at us. I should have brought him on from the start. If you are considering the sale of a property in New York, you must call Bob. It will be the best move that you make.

Our site, while exceptionally well-located, had some challenges given the landmarked status of a portion of the old RKO Theater. Bob Knakal and his team understood our asset and the neighborhood and were able to overcome any hurdles that came up throughout their marketing campaign. Our property was widely exposed to a wide arena of potential buyers and brokers resulting in a sales price that we were very pleased with. If you are selling a property I would highly recommend Bob and his team.

Bob Knakal had sold several assets for me previously and when it was time to sell 1176 Second Avenue, I knew the transaction was not going to be easy and knew exactly who I was going to have sell it for me. This three story retail condo was mostly below grade with two levels below the small space at street level. The space sat vacant for many years and we decided it was time to sell it. Bob told us that the likely buyer was a user and, more specifically, a user from the decorator & design industry given the predominance of these tenants in the neighborhood. Bob called on every one of those tenants and found the perfect user buyer for me. What can I say, he hit the ball out of the park for me on this very difficult transaction. I highly recommend Bob to anyone looking for flawless execution of a marketing process.

Given the complexities of our situation, we needed a broker who could strategize and implement a program in a multi dimensional way. Bob Knakal and his team were the perfect choice for this assignment. They were able to move down two different, but parallel paths simultaneously and provided us with many options to consider. We were extremely pleased with our results and would gladly recommend Bob and his team to any other potential seller in New York City.

I have been a friend and client of Bob Knakal’s since the establishment of Massey Knakal in 1988 and remain so these many years later. Bob’s straightforward and efficient representation, intuitive logic, cerebral process, and integrity are his hallmarks. In my opinion, these characteristics and traits allow me to feel privileged, comfortable, and happy doing, or discussing, business with Bob past, present and future.

When my partners and I wanted to sell our building, we knew this was not going to be an easy sale because of our desire to lease back the retail space for our business on a long-term basis. After meeting with Bob Knakal and his team, we were confident that he would be able to help us navigate this process, achieving a great solution for business while at the same time maximizing the results of our real estate transaction. Bob and his team met, or exceeded, all of our expectations and we would be happy to recommend them to any other sellers.

I can honestly say that I completely trusted Bob and he truly came through for me!

Bob was the perfect choice. Bobby Knakal and his team have been a valued advisor to our firm for decades. He presented a plan that we thought was very ambitious but, in his usual way, exceeded our expectations across the board. We value our relationship with him and his team and would happily recommend him to anyone looking to sell an asset in New York City.

Our development site on 24th Street had a number of twists and turns and, once again, Bob Knakal and his team came through for us. Understanding the intricacies of the zoning code is something not many brokers can claim but Bob gets it. This was another job well done by Bob and his team on our behalf.

I didn’t know Bob Knakal before this transaction. He was referred by a friend as someone who knew the neighborhood better than anyone else and that could run a sales process that would get the property broad exposure and the highest price. My friend was right. Bob did a fantastic job and I would happily work with him again.

Bob Knakal is one of our go-to guys in NYC. He is truly one of the best in the business!
