Frequently Asked Questions About NestIt NYC
Everything you need to know about how NestIt works, our partner agents, and how we save you thousands on your NYC home transaction.
Yes. Our service is completely free, and you are never under any obligation to move forward with a recommended agent. Browse as many matches as you like until you find the right fit. When you sell with a NestIt partner agent, you only pay the reduced 1.5% listing fee at closing. Buyers pay nothing. Requesting cash offers is free too.
Our partner agents pay us a small referral fee only after your home successfully closes. That fee comes out of their commission, not yours. Because we connect them with motivated NYC clients at no upfront cost, they can pass the savings on to you in the form of a lower listing fee or buyer cash back.
NYC agents spend hundreds of hours and thousands of dollars hunting for clients. We deliver them serious, ready to act buyers and sellers without that effort. In exchange, they offer NestIt clients a flat 1.5% listing fee instead of the traditional 3%. Same full service, same marketing, same negotiation skills, just a smarter business model on their end.
Every partner agent must hold an active New York State real estate license, which anyone can check on the state's public record. We match you with an agent who works your neighborhood and property type, and you meet them before you decide anything.
The five boroughs and Long Island: Manhattan, Brooklyn, Queens, The Bronx, Staten Island, and Long Island. Md Sharif Mia, a licensed salesperson with Azad Realty USA, handles your request himself or refers you to a licensed partner agent who works in your area. We do not serve New Jersey, which needs a New Jersey license.
NestIt calls you within 1 business day (Monday to Friday, 9 AM to 7 PM ET) of receiving your information. We review your needs, and either Md Sharif Mia handles your request himself or refers you to a licensed partner agent who fits your borough and property type. You decide who to work with after meeting them.
Tell us and we will introduce you to someone else. There is no commitment until you sign a listing or buyer agreement directly with the agent. You can interview multiple agents and walk away at any time without owing us a thing.
On a typical NYC home priced at $1.2 million, the traditional 3 percent listing commission is $36,000. With NestIt, you pay just $18,000. That is an $18,000 savings on a single transaction. For higher priced Manhattan properties, savings often exceed $30,000.
When you buy a home with a NestIt partner buyer agent, you receive a cash rebate at closing. Buy with NestIt and get $500 back. Buy and sell with NestIt in the same transaction and get $1,000 back. The cash hits your account at closing and can be used for moving expenses, closing costs, or anything else.
Submit your NYC property address and a few details about your home. NestIt calls you within 1 business day, requests cash offers from independent local buyers, and prepares a listing estimate so you can compare the two. NestIt does not buy homes. Cash buyers typically purchase as-is, and a typical NYC all-cash house sale closes in about 30 days. You are under no obligation until you sign a contract.
No. We work only in the five NYC boroughs and on Long Island. We do not serve New Jersey or Westchester.
Md Sharif Mia, a licensed salesperson with Azad Realty USA, reviews your details and either handles your request himself or refers you to a licensed partner agent. We will reach out by phone, text, or email within 1 business day to walk you through next steps. You set the pace from there. Free, no obligation, and no spam ever.
