About us

Some brokers optimize for volume. We optimize for the close.

That takes knowing the buyers, knowing the market, knowing when to push and when to wait. At ICON, every deal is run by people who've spent decades building that knowledge. And we put it to work the only way we know how: we tell you the truth, stay in the fight, and get it closed.
Our services

Sales, acquisitions, and strategic advisory

Multifamily and commercial assets across New Jersey, New York, Pennsylvania, and the broader Mid-Atlantic.

Investment Sales

We represent owners in the sale of multifamily and mixed-use assets. Our process finds the right buyers, qualifies them early, and creates genuine competition while protecting the seller throughout.

Portfolio Strategy

Loan maturities, 1031 deadlines, partnership changes, hold-or-sell decisions. We help owners think through the moments where timing and structure shape the outcome.

Estate Planning

Real estate is often the biggest piece of an estate. We work with owners and their advisors on generational transfers, tax-efficient timing, succession, and liquidity planning.

The process

What working with us looks like

01

Goals Alignment

We start by understanding what you're looking to accomplish — timeline, constraints, confidentiality, and what a good outcome looks like beyond the number.
02

Underwriting & Positioning

We go deep on the asset — financials, capital history, the story it tells and the one it could tell. We recommend a price based on proprietary data and market knowledge.
03

Targeted Outreach

We identify the buyers most likely to close at the best price — based on their portfolios, capital, and current appetite — and approach them deliberately. Qualification comes first.
04

Competitive Tension

We manage information flow, tour timing, and the bid process to maximize leverage for the seller — while keeping the deal moving and confidentiality intact.
05

Negotiation & Selection

The highest number isn't always the best outcome. We evaluate certainty of close, deposit structure, diligence timeline, and track record before recommending a buyer.
06

Diligence Through Close

Most deals that fall apart do it in due diligence. We coordinate between attorneys, lenders, and buyers, and make sure problems get solved before they become reasons to retrade.
