I am a life-long resident of Brooklyn. I was raised in Park Slope and Brooklyn Heights, and have an intimate knowledge of the surrounding landmark neighborhoods. Ive grown up here, I work here, and I am nurturing a family here. My recent experience with the renovation of our brownstone in Park Slope has illuminated my understanding of the elusive concept of Home, and my long time involvement with organizations such as the Park Slope Food Coop, the Prospect Park Alliance, and Poly Prep, where I chair the Freedom from Bias Diversity Initiative, has given me a great appreciation for Brooklyn, and how our brownstone communities have become such coveted destinations. The partnership of Jeff and Ken Mandelbaum has been responsible for some of the marquee luxury transactions over the past 2 years, and was honored for the highest condo resale in 2015. Our network of high net worth clients is drawn from our diverse backgrounds in financial planning and the world of professional music. We have sold former consular residences, prewar co-ops and prime landmark brownstones to clients who value us for our insight, in-depth market advice and discretion. Jeff Mandelbaum is a classically trained operatic countertenor, who has performed on such stages as the Metropolitan Opera, the Spoleto Festival USA, and Alice Tully Hall at Lincoln Center. Ken Mandelbaum My background is finance. I have a BA in Economics and an MBA in Investments. Ive worked on Wall Street and have had a very successful career as an independent pension consultant and financial planner. I understand personal finance and taxes and know how to make money work for you, rather than you for it.Ive lived in Brooklyn (Brooklyn Heights, Park Slope and DUMBO) for over 30 years, and during that time have been involved in various aspects of real estate investment and management for myself - and many others. Every deal Ive done has involved leverage and tax strategies, including 1031 like kind exchanges. I can bring this broad range of knowledge and experience to serve the varied needs of residential buyers and sellers, as well as real estate investors. I consider myself a facilitator. I know how to make a deal happen. I believe in honesty, trust and integrity and enjoy the challenge of negotiation and completion of the deal. Currently, my wife and I own a Condominium in DUMBO and a house in Bridgehamptonboth exciting markets that have seen incredible growth in the past 5 years.
