Local knowledge matters
Real estate advice should feel like a conversation, not a sales pitch.
Long Island City has changed quickly. A waterfront condominium, a Court Square apartment, and a property closer to Queensboro Plaza can have very different considerations.
Julian Armas has spent more than 25 years in New York real estate, helping buyers, sellers, renters, and investors make decisions with a clearer understanding of the market.
That experience matters most when the obvious answer is not necessarily the right one. We take the time to understand what you are trying to do, then help you compare the options.

Neighborhood-focused real estate knowledge
The LIC market
One neighborhood, a lot of different real estate.
Long Island City is not one uniform housing market. Building type, location, views, monthly costs, transit access, and the surrounding streets can all change the equation.
Co-ops
Buyers need to look beyond the asking price. Building finances, monthly costs, board requirements, and resale considerations matter.
Rentals
From compact city apartments to modern waterfront rentals, we help renters compare buildings, locations, and overall costs.
Investment Property
We look beyond the listing photos and consider rental demand, expenses, location, building quality, and long-term potential.
Know the neighborhood
Where in Long Island City are you looking?
The best location depends on what your everyday life actually looks like. Your commute, subway access, parks, waterfront access, restaurants, building amenities, and budget can all change which part of LIC makes sense.
We help clients compare the different pockets of Long Island City instead of treating the entire neighborhood as one market.

Buying, selling, renting, investing
Your situation comes first.
There is no single way to approach Long Island City real estate. A first-time buyer needs different guidance from a seller preparing a waterfront property, and an investor has a different set of numbers to consider.
Our job is to help you understand the decision in front of you, without making the process more complicated than it needs to be.
How we help
Whatever brings you to LIC, start with a clear plan.
Real estate decisions get easier when you know what matters, what to watch for, and what your next step should be.
Buying a Home in Long Island City
We help buyers compare condos, co-ops, new developments, and other LIC properties while keeping an eye on costs and conditions that do not always appear in a listing.
Selling Your LIC Property
Pricing is about more than looking at one nearby sale. We consider the property, building, condition, competition, timing, and how buyers are actually shopping the market.
Renting in Long Island City
Moving to LIC, changing neighborhoods, or looking for your next apartment? We help renters narrow down the options based on location, budget, building, and timing.
Real Estate Investment in LIC
We help investors look at a property from more than one angle, including rental demand, operating costs, location, building quality, and long-term potential.
