We have known Boris for 6 years, first as the sellers broker when we bought our place, then as a resident and now as our broker. He’s been fantastic. He has intimate knowledge of the building, the local market and the broader NYC market. He’s been very accessible and also has a great team. We wholeheartedly recommend Boris!

I've been working with Boris for the last 8 years. He's always available and helpful discussing real estate. I can't recommend Boris and his team enough as brokers. They know the market and building very well and can handle any type of sale.

For those looking to sell, buy or rent, I highly recommend Boris Fabrikant. He has been an owner in the building for 10+ years and no one can provide the level of service he does. From the very beginning, it was evident that he had an unparalleled understanding of the building, its intricacies, and its unique qualities. His in-depth knowledge of the property, combined with his genuine enthusiasm for the building and community helped greatly with the sale. He took the time to listen attentively to my concerns, ensuring that every step of the process was tailored to my individual requirements. This level of personalized attention truly made me feel valued as a client. He consistently demonstrated professionalism, reliability, and transparency. He was always accessible, promptly responding to any questions, and ensured that I remained informed and updated throughout the entire process. His attention to detail and commitment to delivering exceptional service is evident at every stage.

TL/DR: Boris Fabrikant (Fabrikant Bond Team) is the best! I have lived in the building since 2016 - renting from an uncle that was the unit owner - and when I finally made the move out of NYC I was in charge of coordinating the listing and sale of the apartment. Boris came highly recommended, and thank goodness I listened. From start to finish, Boris and his team went above and beyond to achieve a great outcome. Boris was...

1. An honest and effective communicator. He helped me (and my uncle) understand the market and the factors that would influence selling the apartment in the building and in the current economy. He was clear and highly responsive throughout the listing and sale, setting clear timelines and providing timely updates throughout the process. I always felt like I knew what was happening and what I needed to do to maximize the outcome.

2. Pragmatic and even keeled. Any part of buying or selling is stressful. Nothing phased Boris, and he had a solutions oriented mindset. I raised challenges and concerns... and Boris helped find solutions and a path through. Boris also provided really actionable and achievable recommendations to get the apartment ready for sale... nothing too extensive, nothing unreasonable. 3. Connected and resourceful. Boris being a resident and well connected in the building meant that he helped connect me with people to get some extra storage when I needed to clear the apartment for staging, and helped ensure the hallway on my floor looked great for showings. He knows the right people to help in any situation and is willing to put his network to use.

4. Really pleasant to work with. I felt comfortable with Boris immediately, and felt he took the time to really understand our goals and timelines for getting the apartment sold. All in all, it was a great experience working with Boris, and I would highly recommend him and his team to anyone buying or selling in the Charleston (or anywhere else, for that matter!).

If you’re thinking about buying or selling your apartment, I highly recommend you contact Boris Fabrikant and the Fabrikant Bond Group at Compass. Boris is a long-time owner at the Charleston who knows this building (it’s people, staff, amenities, etc) inside and out. He connects with people in a way that you know he genuinely cares about you and your family. Boris not only helped me sell my home but also find my dream home (both at the Charleston). When you meet Boris, you meet a life-long friend, not just a broker. About five years ago, I started to think about an upgrade from my existing place. Boris showed me a few places and I fell in love with one of them, but it happened so fast I wasn’t ready to go all in quite yet, so I let it go. Boris was patient, he never got frustrated when I was unsure and backed out of the first place. A little less than two years ago another apartment in the same line came on the market, this time I was ready. We were hit with nearly every roadblock possible that could have derailed this – Covid, complications with sellers overseas during the pandemic, and much more. Boris remained positive and worked tirelessly right up until the final hour of the closing to make sure that this would not fall through. In addition to tracking the timing of when I could buy my new home, he perfectly timed it with when to put my current one on the market. Even with the interest rates starting to go up, Boris was able to get my place into contract within 8 days of it hitting the market. He timed the sale and purchase within days of each other making the entire process seamless! I cannot recommend Boris enough!

In the world of real estate brokers, Boris has stood out consistently as a straightforward, easy to work with, and dedicated. We've had the pleasure of working with him numerous times now and have he has exceeded expectations every time. He and his team are always responsive and go the extra mile to help make your buying and selling experience as easy as possible. If you're thinking about buying, selling or renting - please check in with Boris first, I don't think you'll regret it.

Just wanted to share that I’ve had several very successful real estate engagements with Boris Sharapan Fabrikant - he’s great for seeking renters and buyers if you’re looking to lease/sell in the Charleston. Highly professional and super communicative. Definitely reach out to him if you have any needs in the real estate department!

We highly recommend Boris Fabrikant at Compass for any broker needs. He helped us in renting our apartment and we were impressed by his professionalism and knowledge of The Charleston so much so that we would definitely use him again. Please let us know if you need his contact info!

I highly recommended Boris Fabrikant of Compass as a listing agent. Boris is a true professional and is assisted by a very responsive support team. I was kept updated though the sales process and his intimate knowledge of The Charleston was such an asset. If you have any questions, I would be happy to email or talk with prospective clients to provide feedback on my positive experience.

If anyone is looking for a real estate broker for buying or selling their apartment, we highly recommend Boris. Boris represented us for the sale of our apartment in the Charleston. He is professional and courteous. He is very thorough and patient in attending to our needs throughout the entire process. He is also super efficient in getting the deal closed.

Anyone thinking of selling their apartment should consult with Boris Fabrikant of Compass as we did. Boris is a real pro with a proactive sales team plus, as a Charleston resident, he is extra motivated to extract every ounce of value he can from each transaction. He’s also a pleasure to work with.

If anyone is buying or selling a condo, I highly recommend Boris. He was my real estate broker two different times in the past few years. Working with him was easy and stress free on both occasions. He knows the market really well and is super efficient in listening to your needs and getting things done.

If anyone is looking for a real estate broker, I would highly recommend Boris Fabrikant at Compass. He recently listed and sold our apartment in just a few weeks—not an easy feat in the middle of a pandemic, but he lives in the building, knows the best way to market the units, describe the neighborhood etc. We had moved out prior to the listing, and he really went above and beyond what most brokers would do to facilitate walkthroughs and anything else needed in the building to facilitate closing.

If you are looking to buy or sell, I highly recommend working with Boris who lives and owns in the building. In the midst of the pandemic, while showing apartments was difficult, Boris was able to secure a buyer for the sale of my apartment. He had valuable recommendations regarding how to make the apartment even more attractive to potential buyers in terms of visual appeal of the space.

For anyone looking to sell your unit or purchase another, we would like to recommend you contact Boris Sharapan Fabrikant. Boris recently listed our unit and secured us an offer in a short time frame. We believe his knowledge of the building and area were extremely important to the successful marketing of our property.

The Charleston is fortunate to have an in house, resident broker. I have had the opportunity to work with Boris Sharapan over the past decade. He is professional, highly qualified, and motivated.

If you are looking to buy, sell or rent real estate in New York we highly recommend Boris Fabrikant. We came to him after seeing and hearing many other positive recommendations from prior owners in the building. He helped us sell our apartment at the Charleston. Prior to selling, he gave us an excellent consultation on how to price the apartment and stage it. His professionalism, attention to detail, and pleasant attitude makes him stand out from other brokers in the city. For selling in the Charleston, the fact that Boris lives in the building himself both was convenient and helped to sell the apartment.
