List of local brokerage shops
I thought it would be helpful to all to build a list of boutique/neighborhood brokerage firms that might not have the reach of the big boys (Corc, BHS, the Prude, etc) but may have a valuable and loyal neighborhood following. I don't know many, but I'll get us started:
http://www.housebywe.com - Fort Greene, others
http://brooklynheightsrealestate.com - BH
Others?

I'm about to put my (modest) Park Slope co-op on the market and would be interested in people's impressions of the advantages and disadvantages of going with one of these smaller brokers over the mega-shops. Any thoughts?

Whatever you do, avoid Corley Realty. The owner, Mike Corley, is completely unethical, unprofessional and a scam artist. Wish I had known that before working with him.

BedStuyTownhouse,
I hope you've finally bought a home. Your posts are becoming pathetic.
Unfortunately, you have an incredible misunderstanding of what the law requires of licensed real brokers who represent sellers and what the law expects to be provided to buyers.
Perhaps you should make sure you know what you're talking about when stating that a real estate broker is a scam artist.
Maybe you should share with the Brownstoner.com audience when you were scammed.
Or perhaps leaving out the details of your failed offer that didn't meet the seller's expectation isn't a good enough reason.
One day, you'll have your home on the market and maybe hire a real estate broker to arrange a sale.
But even if you didn't and attempted to sell on your own, let's if you'll confer on the buying public the expectations you had when you were in their position.
Think about it.
