Lily was recommended to us by some friends whom had a great experience selling their coop apartment. After hearing about our friend's experience, my wife and I decided to reach out to Lily Tran to sell our Queens co-op. From the very first interaction, we knew that we were in good hands. She is very knowledgeable about the real estate market and gave us a fair assessment of the apartment. Lily and her team was hands on with helping us get our place staged for photos so the online listing would draw some interest. We didn't expect much but we were blown away with the photos and the ultimate listing (including the description). Though it took several weeks of open houses and showing, the end result was Lily was able to sell our co-op (it happened to be a time where the real estate market was on the downturn due to rising interest rates). We were kept up to speed every step of the way, Lily was in constant communication with us at every step and made us feel at ease. Since we had such a wonderful experience, we also utilized Lily's company to help us buy our next home. Michelle was our realtor. She was patient and was very knowledgeable with the Queens real estate market. She took the time to understand our needs and setup appointments with prospective properties. After many months of looking, we were finally able to close on our new home with Michelle's help. Thanks so much Lily, Michelle, Cindy, Jade and team! read more

Unfortunately judging by Trans response to my previous review she has missed the point and demonstrates exactly how she conducts her business : by blaming and making excuses. It became extremely evident that the minute we changed to a different realtor we were able to sell the property within one month and for the price we wanted. We had a much better personal, to the point, one on one communication without the nonsense redundant spam emails and had no issue with open houses. Its all smoke and mirrors. You are lucky that your careless realtor did not break the 2k AC unit. It's never wise to push any electronics to the limit. You are responsible if you break it. Just a friendly reminder. A good salesperson would never say the things she did. It's always better to accept your mistakes and see if you can do better in the future. This way, at least I could recommend you to others but I cannot due to your lack of effort and acknowledgement. Having too much pride is not the best way to improve business. If anyone in the area is looking for a good realtor please feel free to DM for info, I'm happy to recommend a good sales person. Lily Tran, I would never hire you or your team or recommend your business to anyone. Sorry. read more

Lily will make you feel like you are her only client, when in reality she has a lot going on. She is very popular in real estate in Forest Hills and all around Queens. We listed our home for sale with Lily. Lily came back with multiple offers after half day of showing. Like all real estate transactions, there were hiccups along the way, but Lily handled everything with ease. She is also very responsive. If we ever needed her, we sent a text message and within minutes she responded! She was always calm and reassuring. She was always there with us every single step of the way. Lily also has a lot of connections in the real estate sector. We used all of her recommendations - contractor, attorney, mortgage lender, etc. And because of her connections, it has made the transactions smoother. For example, at one point we wanted our buyer's file to get clearance with the bank right away so we can move along with our purchase (we were selling and buying at the same time). Usually it takes 2-3 business days for the bank's underwriter to review and clear a client's file. But Lily was able to leverage her connections with the mortgage lender and got our buyer's file cleared within 2-3 hours! Purchasing and selling in real estate is the biggest investment in one's life, and inevitably it comes with headaches, but thanks to Lily, our transaction was a much smoother one. Thank you Lily Tran! read more

I am so happy I hired Lily Tran to sell my co-op unit in Forest Hills. She is highly knowledgeable in the market and trends. Lily and her staff are very professional. They arranged showings and open houses strategically and conveniently for me. Lily was great at communication and always responded to me within minutes. She was very thorough with screening potential buyers and made sure offers were solid. Besides being a professional, Lily is very friendly, personable and genuine. I highly recommend Lily Tran. read more

Lily Tran is an unscrupulous forest hills ny real estate broker i called her to rent an apt that we own and live in forest hills she came over and talked me into selling the new much larger apt that I just bought using slick sales tactics she talked me into an exclusive listing on the spot with no time for me to think it over .. She promised the world and delivered nothing but aggravation. I had to cancel the contract with her. read more

Lily and her team at exit have gone above and beyond any of my previous experiences with a Realtor. Highly professional, extremely knowledgeable, and great at follow up until the deal is through. I wouldn't hesitate to go back for her and her teams services in the future. Update 2 years later (5/2015) I reach out to Lily about some advice on the housing market, I get a detailed response within minutes. Again she shows how professional, detailed and knowledgable she is. A+++ read more

I am so glad I had chosen Lily to sell my Rego Park co-op apartment! Lily was very professional and knowledgeable, and I knew I wanted her to be my agent within minutes of meeting her. She helped me with the listing price and my apartment had multiple showings right away. My apartment had multiple offers (1 at asking price and 3 above asking) and I accepted an offer within 10 days of Lily listing my place!!! It was a pleasure working with Lily. She was very responsive throughout the whole process and she made the whole co-op selling experience less stressful. I cannot recommend Lily highly enough. She is just super awesome!!! read more

Lily was a wonder to work with. She helped take fantastic pictures of our home, set up apartment visits in a way that stoked competitive bids, and ultimately got us more than $50K than I originally paid for my studio home. I'd definitely recommend her. read more

In the business world customer service is very important. I was looking for a place to purchase and happened to walk past an open house that Lily Tran was doing at the time. She was polite and walk me around briefly and handed me her business card. Because I felt that she was professional, I followed up with her ( via email and left a Voice message as no one responded). I provided a detailed explanation of what I was looking for and specifically asked for a couple of locations ( buildings) that I was interested in. I never heard back from her or her team. I'm guessing there was either an assumption made of the amount I could spend on the property or perhaps she was too busy to respond, but either way I don't feel this is the best way to deal with potential customers. It would have been nice to simply have been contacted back rather than be ignored. Of course this is my personal experience and I understand that "life happens". Unfortunately it was her call that I never had a chance to actually work with her on purchasing a property. read more

Can't agree more with all the positive reviews here. Lily helped me sell my apt in Forest Hills. She's supportive, responsive, and highly professional and answered any and every question I had for her during the process. She kept me informed throughout the sale and even ended up getting me 10K over asking! Overall was an awesome experience and I highly recommend contacting her if you are looking to sell your place. read more

My husband and I are first time buyers and we've worked with Lily and her assistant Cindy for the past 2 years. We would not have found our dream home without their help. Lily and Cindy are simply wonderful to work with. They were super patient and honest whenever they came with us to view apartments and never pressured us to make a decision. Their deep expertise of the neighborhood helped us make informed decisions each step of the way. Since this is our first time buying a home, we had many questions and Lily truly held our hand throughout the process all the way through contract, board interview and closing and was always willing to jump on a call and answer our emails whenever we had a question. She did so much work behind-the-scenes to make this happen for us. We spoke to a number of different real estate agents and found Lily to stand out. Her thoughtfulness, patience, integrity, judgement, fairness, responsiveness and reliability is unlike anyone we've worked with. We would not have found our future home without Lily and Cindy and are so grateful for their support. If you're looking for a home in Forest Hills, we would highly recommend you reach out to Lily. read more

This is my second time using Lily to sell our place and as always her service was top notch. She was always available to answer any questions that I had, have excellent follow up, and got me top dollar for my place. I loved working with her and her assistant Cindy. If you are looking for peace of mind during the buying or selling process I highly recommend giving Lily a call. read more

I met Lily through StreetEasy while searching for a co-op to purchase in Forest Hills. From the moment I met her at the open house, she was knowledgeable, courteous, genuine and an expert in the area. Mind you, Lily is dedicated enough to hold an open house on New Years Day. She said "The serious buyers will show up on New Years Day to buy a property." Throughout the purchase process she kept me informed, helped to facilitate and expedite applications and paperwork and did everything she could to help me close as soon as possible. I highly recommend Lily to help in your purchase or selling of your property, you won't be disappointed. read more

Lily just sold my one-bedroom apartment in Forrest Hills. The experience was very smooth. I found her on Zillow. She had sold the most homes in Forest Hills area. From the beginning, she showed how knowledgeable she was of the area's real estate market, as well as the possible impact of overall economic climate of the nation. She studies the apartment and decided on what would be the best time to show the apartment. She also asked me: "For someone who has lived in this apartment for 20 years, what do you think are the good and bad things about this apartment?" I knew I had the right agent, because she recognized that I was the real expert on this particular property because I had practical knowledge of it. Lily was the second agent I hired for my apartment. My coop board rejected several rounds of previous potential buyers. Lily asked me for details on the reasons of the rejections, and came up with a strategy. Later on, when potential buyers came up, she was diligent in going to the management company to make sure all conditions were acceptable. She also provided me with directions on possible solutions if certain situations happen. During the time the property was on the market, Lily kept me updated on the status. Whenever I need additional information, she was always a phone call or text message away. Even when on vacation, her phone is always on, and she has a very competent assistant. I highly recommend Lily Tran for your next real estate transaction. read more

Cannot recommend Lily enough! I first reached out to her several years ago (after seeing her incredibly high zillow ratings) to help sell our co-op in Queens. Ultimately, we put the sale on hold (found out we were expecting!) and she couldn't have been more understanding and professional. Fast forward a couple of years when we decided to put it on the market again, and in TEN DAYS she secured a sale at ask, all cash. Aside from the best-case scenario result, she was always professional, always kind, and always responsive. Side note: she helped quickly make another sale in the building that other agents had zero luck with. In other words, call Lily. read more

Lily is beyond awesome, accommodating and super helpful. She didn't waste our time with the lowball offers and was very realistic about the market and what we should list our apt at. We had showings scheduled immediately after our apt was listed and we had a few offers before we accepted one we were happy with. She's very knowledgeable about Forest Hills and always replied to emails within the hour. We just recently bought a house and although we're worked with her associate most of the time, Lily was still super helpful with any Qs we had and gave us sound advice. I would definitely recommend her to anyone that's looking to buy or sell a place! read more

Once we decided to sell our home, we realized that a most critical partner in this venture was the real estate broker. Because of my prior years of experience as an attorney involved in syndicated real estate investment transactions, I realized the importance of selecting the most able broker available, one with both a high degree of experience and business savvy in the sale of residential properties, as well as strong and meaningful connections to the community (Kew Gardens/Forest Hills) in which our home was located. After researching over a dozen brokers, and interviewing a few, we decided that, without reservation, Lily Tran was the ideal broker for the sale of our home. She is an extraordinarily knowledgeable and skilled broker, who not only conducted and coordinated all aspects of the sale of our home with great facility, but was available to address our questions and concerns, as well as all prospective buyers' questions and concerns, at all hours of the day and night. As a result of her efforts and our quick cooperation, we were able to sell our home very shortly after it was listed at the best price possible with regard to the terms of the deal. read more

After talking to several real estate agents, we decided to hire Lily because she seemed to be very professional, organized and experienced in the field. She got us a buyer pretty quickly. She and her team were very helpful and patient when unexpected circumstances happened before the closing. It was a pleasure to have her as our real estate agent because of her excellent work. We highly recommend her. read more

If you are looking for a realtor - you should call Lily Tran. We had our co-op on the market for over a year with two other brokers and hardly had any action. As soon as we listed it with Lily, we had multiple showings every weekend and multiple offers come in. It was clear that she puts effort into her job instead of just throwing the listing on the internet and crossing her fingers. She updated us constantly via email, which was our preferred method of communication. When offers came in, she advised us on their likelihood of passing the co-op board approval process, which showed her knowledge and experience with the buildings in Forest Hills. We finally closed on our apartment this week and we are so grateful to Lily for her attention, advice and professionalism throughout the whole process. read more

Lily was fantastic to work with and I would highly recommend working with her for your real estate needs. She is highly knowledgeable of the Forest Hills area, very responsive, and was a pleasure to work with throughout my Co-op application process. She was always willing to help answer any questions and put me at ease throughout the application process. She is considerate of your time, your needs, and is extremely dedicated and hard working. I had such a positive buying experience working with Lily and am so grateful for her dedication, attention to detail, and for all the time she spent guiding me through my first Co-op purchase process. read more

Lily listed and sold my co-op in Forest Hills. She was knowledgable of the local market and realistic and fair in what my apt should be listed at. She was also very much in touch with the specifics of the purchases and sales requirements for my building which was very helpful when vetting offers. She was always responsive to my numerous inquiries of the process and updates of potential buyers and provided me with insight and her expertise in "how things worked". There were appts to view the apt immediately after the listing was up and she was extremely helpful in the negotiating of offers. Lily was always professional in her interactions and very easy to work with. I would recommend her and would certainly work with her again in the future. read more

IMPORTANT: LIlyTran just made an Anti Semitic Pro Nazi Pro Holocaust gesture and referral that's is irrelevant to my negative post and is an act of hateful revenge on her part Do not let Lilly Tran talk you into signing an exclusive sales listing for your co op in forest hills or you will be sorry you did..she is not transparent.. Not only did she promise my wife and I an almost immediate sale with ready buyers but she never brought us one offer..even after several weeks ..she priced the apt too high and exaggerated the size of the apt..and promised us a sale at a high price but then we lowered that high price and still no offers even with the lower price..she also never mentioned that the seller is responsible for all the transfer fees.which amount to thousands of dollars but instead stated that the buyer and seller usually split the fees.she will promise you the world and deliver nothing except waste your time.. Furthermore she showed irresponsibility. I trusted her with a set of keys and she or her coworkers left the door open on a number of occasions and left the terrace door open and when I went in it was like an icebox.. Just a total waste of time and I got aggravated and told her to cancel the listing..don't waste your time and energy and money with her and her agency.. read more

My wife was selling her Queens Co-op studio apartment and we hired Lilly Tran to handle it for us. Working with Lilly was a truly great experience. She is very knowledgeable about the real estate market and gave us some very good advice. Navigating Co-op boards can be a difficult experience, and Lilly helped us maintain a positive outlook. We persisted and achieved a better outcome than we imagined possible. We highly recommend Lilly for anyone looking to buy, sell, or rent property in Queens. read more

I'm so torn over this review. Lily seemed nice and responsive the moment I reached out to her last year. I was looking to buy a coop in Forest Hills and had high expectations because of her Yelp reviews. Lily and her assistant sort of disappeared after I told them what I was looking for. I did tell her the first time that I was disappointed. However, I gave them another try and the same thing happened. Judging from the other reviews, it looks like she mostly work with sellers. Perhaps she didn't want to work with a buyer with a median price budget. If that's the case I would appreciate it more had Lily and her team been straight forward upfront. It was a waste of time. We ended up going to another broker and got the apartment. read more

Lily made our first selling experience exceptional! We listed our house a bit higher than what the area was going for...but we still went way above the asking price with qualified buyers. She took very good care of us! read more

Lily is an experienced realtor agent and awesome to work with. She and Cindy, her assistant, helped us sold our co-op in Forest Hills with a very good price (over asking). Highly recommend for any buyer/seller currently looking for a realtor agent in the area! read more

Lily really knows her market and she will get the job done. In selling my coop, she helped me vet the buyer to ensure all the qualifications were there and was able to handle one of the most difficult boards in Forest Hills. Really glad I went with her to get through a sale as smooth as possible! read more

Lily recently helped me close on my coop in Rego Park Queens. She got a record price for my one bedroom. I was having issues with the buyer who wanted to have their parents live in the unit. Lily was able to guide them through the tedious board process and get them approved. She updated me through the whole process and I would highly recommend her! read more

We worked with Lily this past year while she helped us to sell our Co-op in Forest Hills. I can't say enough about her professionalism, honesty and attention to detail. She always went above and beyond in answering the very long list of questions we had as first time home-sellers. It's an involved process and Lily was very patient with us the whole time. She was always available and reliable. When she said a time she meant it, and with a two year old, her punctuality was greatly appreciated. Lily sold our co-op quickly and for a fantastic price. If you need a true real estate professional, call Lily. She's the best!! read more

I recently worked with Lily as a buyer and seller for my co-ops in Forest Hills. She was on top of everything and constantly kept me updated during the process. She is professional and accessible at all times, which I greatly appreciated. It was a pleasure working with her during what can be a very stressful time. If you are in the market for a realtor, I highly recommend her!!! read more

Lily is the absolute best! She reviews everything in detail with you, takes the time to explain the selling process and steps, and is excellent with communication. She arranged several showings of my co-op quickly and within a week I had an offer above asking price. If you want someone personable and knowledgeable who will go above and beyond to help you get the best deal for your property contact Lily! read more

I would highly recommend Lily. I recently sold a Forest Hills co-op, with Lily as my real estate agent. I spoke with a number of different agents from different brokers, but decided to go with Lily because she was knowledgeable and articulate. I was not disappointed! She is extremely responsive, professional, and knowledgeable. She pays great attention to every detail. She was always accessible (any time and any day!) and kept me up to date with the status. She quickly built the trust that I was looking for in an agent! The entire process went as smoothly as possible, with Lily facilitating as much as she could. If I had any questions, Lily made sure to answer them as clearly and completely as possible. I would look to Lily for any future transactions and refer her to anyone who asks for recommendations! read more

Lily had me in a contract for more then asking a week after we listed it. Highly recommend.

Lily is a wonderful agent. She is knowledgeable, thorough, and responsive. Lyly recently help sell out home and I could not have been happier. She did a great job showing the home, talking with buyers, and guiding us through the sale process. I would highly recommend her for your real estate needs. read more

Lily is the best realtor in Forest Hills area of New York.! She went above and beyond in helping us to sell our one bedroom co-op apartment and we will forever be grateful. Within a few days of listing, we had an offer that was more than our list price, and she was on top of everything from beginning through closing. Everything worked so smoothly (she really knows what she's doing). Her knowledge on the market and her ability to work with cooperative strict requirements made the process a lot easier than we could ever imagine. If you are looking for agent to represent you look no further, just contact Lily. She is both competent and likable. She is patient and responsive. She was always in contact with us and she represented well at the offers we received. We are highly recommending Lily to all those who are looking to sell or buy in Forest Hills area or beyond. read more

Lily handled both the purchase of my house and the sale of my apartment. We highly recommend Lily to anyone who's interested in the FH area. We are glad to have Lily helping us getting our first townhouse in Forest Hills. Looking for townhouses in hot area like Forest Hills is a very daunting task. Lily is the expert in this area, she knows the market very well and saves us a lot of time. She's very professional, very responsive and guided us through the buying process with great care. We highly recommend Lily to our friends and family. Lily and her team is exceptional in handling the sale of my co-op. Selling a co-op is a complicated process, Lily presented us with a very thorough comparative analysis and gave us valuable advice on how to price our apartment. We got and accepted an offer within 2 weeks and the rest of the selling process went smoothly. Lily and her team are professional, responsive, and they gave us timely updates throughout the whole process. (co-op transaction takes about 3 months). read more

Lily recently helped me sell my studio apartment in Queens and was a wonderful broker to deal with. She really knew her stuff and was not only able to find us a buyer within a week of listing the place but she also got us a great price. Throughout the process, she was nothing but professional, friendly, and helpful. I really appreciated the fact that she was always readily reachable and very responsive. Selling a home can be a truly stressful experience, but I'm really glad I chose a great realtor that took one element of stress out of the whole situation. Thanks Lily! read more

Lily is nothing short of amazing. A colleague referred me to her after I decided to relocate to another state and I was incredibly happy with how she handled the sale of my co-op. My move was happening fast which meant I was going to be far away for most of the sale and that I needed to focus much of my energy on that instead of on my apartment. Lily is definitely in the "above and beyond" category for her efforts. She works incredibly hard. I didn't have to stress out or worry about anything. She is just incredible. I could go on and on. Do yourself a favor and go with Lily. read more

I had the pleasure of working with Lily and her assistant Cindy over the past year as a seller and a buyer. Lily's strengths are her years of experience in the Forest Hills real estate market, her relationships with building management companies and other realtors in the area, knowledge of specific co-op boards and their requirements, her pricing strategy (just right compared to recent sales in the area), and her quick responses. I would say she underpromises and overdelivers since she tends to sell thousands of dollars over ask with multiple offers. Her presentation and photography of listings are also great. I am so glad I went with Lily as a seller and a buyer in Forest Hills since everything went pretty smoothly and I didn't have to worry about any of the process in addition to my busy day job. I would highly recommend Lily if you're not into sales gimmicks and want to get things done accurately and quickly. read more

Lily is one of the most professional and proficient real estate broker I ever worked with. Working with her had made my Co-op selling experience utterly smooth and painless. Not only did she get me the asking price on the unit (let's say she helped me price it well to begin with), she also worked closely with the board and had great knowledge on the entire process. Always prompt with updates and answered her phone and text. Her recommendation on lawyer worked out great on top of everything. Trust all these great reviews and your own instincts, it's a no brainer to hire her! read more
