Licensed Associate Real Estate Broker

Asit Parikh

A full time NYC resident since 1993 who got his initial real estate license from a $100 Groupon and closed $30M in sales the same year, Asit brings decades of experience from consulting engineering, strategic marketing, and investment banking to the practice of real estate. A typical Gen-Xer with poor work-life balance, Asit works early mornings, all day, and late nights without distraction because the city doesn’t sleep and his clients need him to be respond at all hours.

Asit expertly guides both sides of a deal to victorious consensus whatever it takes, and often the other side needs coaxing. Sellers appreciate Asit’s NYC construction background when preparing apartments for sale, and his ability to combine digital marketing with old-school in-person contact to stimulate maximum interest across multiple mediums. Making it his business to know his facts cold, Asit uses them advantageously to represent his clients’ interests.

Asit developed a keen eye for NYC property at a young age on frequent tours with his father, then a NYC HPD executive engineer who rehabilitated many thousand city-owned properties in the 70s and 80s. After successful careers in multidimensional financial analysis, marketing consulting and VC fundraising, in 2001 Asit joined his family’s NoHo then SoHo-based Engineering/Architecture firm serving NYC’s top designers, private developers, prominent real estate families, and co-op and condo managers. Through experience and formal training, Asit ascended in the industry and absorbed all he could, bringing that advisory to the table for his real estate clients today.

In a “buyer beware” environment, Asit has the skills to make sure his buyers aren’t exposed. Insight gained in his professional capacity mastering the NYC DOB process for new buildings and and solving a great many issues in existing buildings, Asit sees right past glossy marketing, and guides clients accordingly.

Asit studied Psychology and Economics at NYU (’98), is a PHIUS-trained Passive House designer/consultant, a certified Multifamily Building Analyst, PHIUS-certified Passive House large building verifier, has his Construction Management certificate from the City University, is a Cooper Union geothermal & solar thermal researcher to this day, and is a formerly registered NYC DOB Expediter. Time and again, Asit’s clients discover it’s the combination of their own strengths with Asit’s that is the true force multiplier.

Asit has lived in over 20 apartments in 15+ neighborhoods throughout Manhattan and Brooklyn, and viscerally understands NYC neighborhoods from firsthand experience. He has lived in the same West Village co-op for the past 11 years wherein he consistently and unapologetically breaks the top price record. When not working, Asit enjoys biking through NYC, watching Jeopardy with his wife, and designing renewable energy control systems.

I had a really great experience working with Asit Parikh at Compass- my listing broker. Asit got full asking price from a very good buyer that was an easy approval. Asit lives close by, worked very hard, and was a pleasure to deal with from beginning to end. Don't hesitate to reach out to him any time.

Asit has unparalleled knowledge of the NYC real estate market (especially downtown). He is on top of current trends and regional dynamics in each neighborhood. His approach is unique and his insights are savvy. Most importantly, Asit genuinely treasures the relationships he builds and diligently looks after his clients' long term well-being. If you are looking for professional real estate insights, I would highly recommend contacting Asit.

Asit was as helpful to me as anyone in the NYC real estate industry has ever been and he wasn't even my broker. It really speaks to his integrity and work ethic how hard he worked to assist me in my transaction without even having been employed by me. I have and will continue to recommend his services to everyone I know.

Asit sold my apartment in Manhattan in December 2014, and it was a pleasure to work with him. He would go the extra step without fail and always with a smile on his face. He listened to your opinions, made himself available at anytime, and wasn't just trying to make a sale. As the seller's broker, he showed real skill in highlighting all the wonderful aspects of your place while also being upfront and realistic about any negatives to potential buyers. I would recommend Asit.
